New Delhi. A unique example of brotherhood was seen in Varanasi on the holy festival of Diwali. Here Muslim women along with Hindu women performed the Aarti of Lord Shri Ram. A large number of Muslim women gathered at Subhash Bhawan located in Lamhi of the city and performed the aarti of Shri Ram and Mata Sita. Every year on Diwali, Rangoli is made by the Muslim Women Foundation and Aarti is performed by decorating the idols of Lord Shri Ram and Mata Sita with flowers. During this time women recite aarti written in Urdu.

Giving information about this, BHU Professor Dr. Rajeev Srivastava said that after the bomb blast in Sankat Mochan Temple in Varanasi in 2006, the tradition of performing Aarti of Lord Ram is being followed by Muslim women. While terrorists tried to create discord between Hindus and Muslims by blasting bombs in the temple, this event is organized every year on Diwali by Muslim Mahila Foundation with the aim of Hindu-Muslim unity.

Nazneen Ansari, officer of Muslim Women Foundation, says that we are very happy that Diwali is being celebrated in Ayodhya for the first time after Pran Pratishtha and we are also celebrating this happiness. As we have been celebrating for the last 17 days. This year we are again performing the Aarti of Lord Ram with Hindu sisters.

At the same time, Mahant Balak Das, the head of Patalpuri Math, said that every Diwali, Muslim women give the message of unity by performing the aarti of Lord Ram. They say that Lord Ram is our ancestor and we worship him. Through this program, we are taught to eliminate fanaticism and follow the ideals of Lord Ram.
