The Plaintiff’s Counsel, Mr. Desai, will then address the Defendant’s arguments in rejoinder.

During this important time, Syedna Fakhruddin TUS urges Mumineen to remain calm and maintain decorum to ensure the Hon’ble Bombay High Court can hear this matter without interference.

Syedna Taher Fakhruddin TUS irshaad that Mumineen do “Hasbunallahu wa ne'mal wakeel” Tasbih (450 times), pray “Nasr-wal-Mahaba” & other doas, & take out Nazrul Maqam AS. Syedna Fakhruddin TUS irshaad also that Mumineen pray for the unity of the community. May Allah Taala grant Syedna Fakhruddin TUS Nasr-e-Aziz & Fath-e-Mubeen.
