Islamabad: Minister for Religious affairs and Interfaith Harmony Sardar Muhammad Yousaf Wednesday said 606 out of total 615 mosques of the federal capital have agreed to implement uniform prayer and ‘Azaan’ timings at their respective mosques.

Chairing a meeting of ‘Nizam-e-Salat’ Committee, he said the consensus of all schools of thought Ulema on uniform prayer and ‘Azaan’ timings in their respective mosques was a great achievement of Pakistan Muslim League-N government. The ‘Nizam-e-Salat’ (Uniform prayer and ‘Azaan’ system) would be expanded to 50 union councils of the federal capital. This system would be started in mosques of G-8, I-9 Markaz from the current week. The meeting was attended by Ulema and others.
