The good news for believers is that the UAE government has allowed them to stay up all night

 

Dubai (Urdu Point Latest Newspaper - April 28, 2021) In Ramadan, every Muslim wants to worship as much as possible so that the pleasure and grace of Allah can be obtained and his sins can be removed as much as possible. One of the major acts of worship in Ramadan is Qiyam-ul-Layl, which is performed in the last ten days of Ramadan. This worship has many virtues. However, due to the Corona epidemic, it was not yet certain whether the UAE government would allow this supererogatory worship.

Because Taraweeh prayers were allowed but its duration was only half an hour along with Isha prayers. There is good news for the Muslims living in the UAE. According to the report of Khaleej Times, the Emirati government has allowed the believers to worship at midnight during Qiyam-ul-Layl, ie Ramadan.

 

 

In the meantime, however, the Corona SOPs must be fully implemented.

 

This naafil prayer can be offered in all mosques of the UAE. The National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA) has announced that Qiyam-ul-Layl will be allowed to be paid during the last ten days of Ramadan from 12 noon to 12:30 pm. However, people have to follow the instructions to wear Corona SOPs, ie social distance.

It would be better for the elderly and those suffering from chronic diseases to pray at home. Otherwise, their health and lives could be endangered in the days of the Corona epidemic. NCEMA says that half an hour has been allotted for this naafil prayer. Worship will be held from 12 noon to 12:30 pm. Immediately after that, all mosques will be closed.

I'tikaaf will not be allowed in any mosque. It should be noted that Qiyam-ul-Layl means 'staying up at night', that is, sacrificing one's sleep at midnight in order to gain the pleasure of the Lord and being engaged in worshiping Him. There are many virtues in the religious books of Qiyam al-Layl. The duration of this prayer is from one hour to three hours, but due to the plague, half an hour of worship is allowed.

Dubai (Urdu Point Latest Newspaper - April 28, 2021) There is a great trend of entertainment parties in the deserts of the United Arab Emirates. In the case of groups that come here, they arrange barbecues and other entertainment, but the value of these entertainment activities is coming to the fore in the form of death of animals. Hundreds of camels have died so far as a result of swallowing plastic shoppers and other remains, according to a UAE veterinary scientist.

According to Al Arabiya News, the head of the UAE's Central Research Laboratory in Dubai, Dr. Alrich Werner, a veterinarian and microbiologist, says that in the desert, camels swallow pieces of plastic along with fodder and go into their stomachs or intestines. Yes, they are not digested and eventually cause death.

 

 

In addition to camels, many animals have died from desert debris.

 

These include turtles, deer and sheep. "People set up tents and barbecues in the deserts on the weekends, but the odor that spreads there after that is indescribable." After that, plastic bags and other garbage are scattered here and there. When camels swallow plastic, it causes obstruction or inflammation in their intestines and then they become victims of bacterial diseases.

"Plastic can cause stomach ulcers in camels and cause them severe pain. Because of this, they feel like their stomachs are full, so they stop eating the right amount of fodder," he said. They do not graze. This causes bleeding from their intestines. They become dehydrated and then die. In the last few years, the stomachs of 300 camels have been filled with plastic. During this study, the team also medically examined a camel that had 200 plastic bags in its stomach. A ban on the use of plastic is essential for the protection and survival of other animals.
