UVAS Qirat and Naat Society arranged a seminar to pay rich tribute to the services & contributions of Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique (RA) at City Campus.
UVAS Vice-Chancellor Meritorious Prof Dr Muhammad Younus (DLA.I, T.I) presided over the seminar while Dean Faculty of Veterinary Science Prof Dr Aneela Zameer Durrani, Dr Sarwar Siddique, Dr Ghulam Mustafa and number of students and faculty members were present.
Speaking on the occasion, Prof Dr Muhammad Younus highlighted the role of Hazrat Abu Bakar Siddiq always a very close companion of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and he was willing to sacrifice his life for the sake of protecting and comforting the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He mentioned Hazrat Abu Bakr had a major role in freeing some of the Muslim slaves, who were barbarically tortured by their heartless mushrik masters to give up the faith and return to their masters’ beliefs. His great personality and service to Islam and Muslims earned him the love and respect of all Muslims, so that he was chosen as the first caliph after the death of the Prophet by all Muslims, he added.
