Faithful throng Grand Mosque for ‘Qiyam’ prayers
Worshippers continue to relive the last 10 days of the Holy Month of Ramadan in Kuwait Grand Mosque and various parts of the country. On the 24th night of Ramadan, the congregation was led in prayers by Sheikh Fahad Al-Kandari and Ahmad Al-Nafees. In his sermon, Sheikh Al- Kandari spoke about the Holy Qur’an being the gift for all humanity and the importance of studying the Holy Qur’an.

Al-Kandari also pointed out various verses of the Holy Qur’an that led many people to convert to Islam, even among the intellectual elites who converted to Islam after knowing that the first verse to be revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was about urging him to read.

Other programs organized for women during these blessed nights in Kuwait Grand Mosque include a lecture entitled, “Certainty”, delivered by Waseema Al-Mustateer. She said the level of certainty in religion can be achieved by contemplating on the name and attributes of Almighty Allah
