Bengal Imam Association makes an appeal

Muharram is around the corner and the Bengal Imams' Association stated that arms should be kept out of processions and children should not involve themselves in any such events. According to the statement signed by Muhammad Yahya, chairman of the Bengal Imams' Association, "Please keep children out of this practice. Don’t provide arms, don’t engage in any kind of illegal activities and tell others not to do so. Please don’t provoke them.” The Nakhoda Masjid imam, Maulana Shafique Qasmi, is against the use of weapons in Muharram processions and while making an appeal he addressed these things.
