In a brief speech before the prayer, Dhaka Metropolitan North Jamaat Secretary Dr. Muhammad Rezaul Karim said, severe heat wave is going on all over the country. Rain has not been seen for a long time. People’s life has become oppressive due to intense heat and daily life is also disrupted. In this situation, the time has come for our self-criticism. May Allah Ta’ala punish us because of our sins. Therefore, we should remember our past sins and prostrate ourselves to seek the mercy of Allah with more forgiveness.

At 11 o’clock in the morning, Istiska prayers and prayers for the rain of mercy were held in the south square of the Baitul Mukarram National Mosque in the capital. Senior Imam of Baitul Mukarram National Mosque, Hafez Maulana Mufti Mizanur Rahman said in Istiskar Namaz and Dua, “We know from Quran and Hadith that because of the sins created by people, Almighty Allah Rabbul Alamin has given various calamities to the world such as intense heat, lack of rain and drought.

If there was no rain, our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) used to pray Istiska in the open field with his companions. They repented to the great Lord for their sins, prayed two rakats for forgiveness and prayed for rain. We also repented for our mistakes and prayed for the welfare of the country and the nation, hoping for the rain of mercy to get rid of the intense heat. We have to turn away from all sins and return to Almighty Allah. Only then can we be successful.
