“there is no doubt managing the Eid El Fitr under COVID-19 was not an easy task, but we have to appreciate that the Friday prayers and the Eid prayers on Sunday were conducted peacefully.

 

“The Imams ensured that people complied with the COVID-19 protocols during Friday prayers and the Eid prayers. I was impressed to have learnt that most Imams did not allow members without face masks to enter the Mosque.”
