SUKKUR: Jumatul Wida, the last Friday of the holy month of Ramazan, was observed with traditional religious zeal and reverence across the northern Sindh.

The day was also observed as Youm-al-Quds to express support and solidarity with oppressed Muslims of Palestine.

Youm-al-Quds is observed annually on the last Friday of Ramazan to oppose illegal Israel's control over Jerusalem.

Sukkur district Police planned foolproof security arrangements for Jumatul Wida and Al-Quds day with deployment of Shahbaz Rangers to avert any untoward incident.

In Sukkur, the biggest gathering of Jumatul Wida was held at Jamia Masjid besides at large and small mosques of the district.
