Ghadeer Function at Zainabia

There was a Grand Celebration of Ghadeer Anniversary last night at Zainabia Imambada. The local and outsation poets were at their best. Javed Gopalpuri from Bihar earned tremendous appreciation from the audience and was forced to repeat his magical style of recitation and high quality of poetry. Sarwar Nawab from Lucknow, Razi Biswani from Jaunpur, Khursheed Muzaffar Nagri, Nayab Balyawi and others uplifted the sensational atmosphere of this poetic feat. Dr. Shaoor Aazmi was conferred an Award in memory of late S.Ghulam Hasnain Kararvi for his contribution to Urdu literature. Mashhood Danapuri, Khurshid Hallauri, Mahdi Aazmi and others were the darling of the crowd. Compering of the function by Naseer Aazmi was at its best. Maulana Hasnain Kararvi  set the tone of the programme by his electrifying speech on Ghadeer, highlighting the final Hajj of the Holy Prophet of Islam (s.a.).
This grand function opened up with the recitation of the Holy Qur'an by Tusi Rizvi.
The occasion was right enough to  launch Urdu weekly "Hamara Waqt" by the hands of Maulana Hasnain Kararvi. Mr. Ali Abbas is the editor of this weekly.
The Wilayati crowd enjoyed the Chicken Burger and the aroma filled Tea. It all ended at 6.00 AM.
Below are some of the photographs of the Ghadeer function.
