Wish you all the Happy Shab-e-Barat

Wish you all the Happy Shab-e-Barat

Some people mistake Shab-e-Barat festival as it is not a festival and Shia Mid-Sha’ban ceremony as they take place at the same time, but Shab-e-Barat’s rituals and styles differ from region to region, while Mid-Sha’ban is celebrated the same everywhere. The observance of Barat involves a festive nightlong vigil with prayers. In most regions, it is a night when one’s deceased ancestors are commemorated.

Shab-e-Barat is considered a major event in South East Asia, in which Muslims collectively worship and ask for forgiveness of their wrongdoings. It is believed to reward them with fortune for the whole year and cleanse them of their sins. In many regions, it is also a night when prayers are offered to forgive one’s deceased ancestors. Additionally, Twelver Shia Muslims commemorate the birthday of Muhammad al-Mahdi. Salafi adherents oppose the recognition of Mid-Sha’ban as exceptional for prayer. Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq and Imam Muhammad al-Baqir used to perform special prayers in this night. Both Sunni and Shia Muslims recognise this night to be as the Night of Forgiveness. Muslims observe Mid-Sha’ban as a night of worship and salvation. Scholars like Imam Shafii, Imam Nawawi, Imam Ghazzali, and Imam Suyuti have declared praying acceptable on the night of mid-Shaban

Bicycle Challenge and Events in India

Bicycle Challenge and Events in India

The Indian Army, the CRPF, including the J&K Police, provided security to all cyclists along the way. Twelve-year-old Tanmay, the youngest cyclist to complete the 300-km trail, was the centre of attraction for the event, impressing everyone with his cycling prowess. He had also participated in the 250-km ride to the Hussaini Wala border, Ferozepur. Kashmir Cyclothon which was flagged-off by the Chief Secretary at Srinagar early morning reached Shopian while traversing through the villages and towns of the district.

Given a choice between a safe ride on a bicycle and a public transport, Which one will you choose?

Given a choice between a safe ride on a bicycle and a public transport, Which one will you choose?

Undeniably the pandemic has brought the humble cycle back to prevalence. The fear of using public transport for day-to-day commute has brought back the value a bicycle deserves. Every state in the country is witnessing this changing trend.

While Bangalore is seeing exponential growth in cycle sales, other metropolitan cities like Bangalore, Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata are all seeing this upswing giving way to a whole new definition of man’s one of the earliest creations. Across cities, several of them are preferring cycles over any other mode of transport whether it is for running daily errands, or to go to work, or for exercising.

And it’s not just for the fear of using public transport, but the cycle is gaining momentum because of its health benefits as well. With the governments halving the capacity of buses and metros and strict adherence to social distancing norms, people are left with very few choices. The ones who can afford private vehicles are taking their own transport but the ones who rely only on public transport are left with only one best option and that is the bicycle.

The bicycle stores are coming back to life again and showrooms are seeing record business in the last couple of months which is expected to rise severalfold.

Although the normal road bikes are the ones which are peaking the sales other bikes like multi-gear and mountain bikes are also in demand. People from all walks of life be it IT professionals, teachers, doctors, bank employees are all opting for this safer and healthier mode of commute. No matter which model it is all cycle prototypes are seeing rocket high sales. And many of the stores are struggling to meet the demands as the stocks are replenishing.

As our lifestyles change for the better, the only thing left to do is to make the roads safer for the bike riders. Hopefully, the government bodies will pay attention to people’s heed for introducing bike routes. If that comes into effect like many other countries, India is sure to move in the direction of achieving an unpolluted, clean and pure atmosphere free of vehicles that make our lives miserable with traffic jams, when we have such an amazing option right in front of us and that too at a very affordable price. No one can deny that this is the best gift that we can give our future generations to come, a healthy and safe place to live.
