Celebrities extend prayers for PK-8303 crash victims on somber Eid

The joyous occasion of Eidul Fitr is not the same for many this year because of the coronavirus pandemic and the horrifying PK-8303 crash.

The festival usually sees people prepare delicious feasts, meet loved ones and plan family gatherings but this time around, the celebration is dampened by the current exceptional circumstance created by Covid-19 and the May 22 plane tragedy.

This was also manifest in Eid messages celebrities shared on social media platforms.

‘Let us continue to pray for Allah’s mercy’

Just as we spent Ramazan remembering Allah, repenting for our sins & praying for better times, let’s spend this Eid hoping, wishing & praying for our well-being & the well-being of our loved ones. Let us continue to pray for Allah’s mercy, for happiness and for life.

We have lost fathers, we have lost sons! We have lost daughters, we have lost mothers. Today our nation will witness 100 funerals and an Eid.

I just wish this year I could say to everyone Eid Mubarak and not have to give warnings, condolences or tell people to stay safe. I just hope in this minute, right now everyone is at peace, intouch with their loved ones and praying for a better tomorrow

May the new moon bring peace and happiness and may the pain we all are going through be eased. Praying for Sabr to the families who lost their dear ones.

I want to wish all Muslim around the world Eid Mubarak. We all will observe this EID in a very different celebration style then what we are used to. My heart goes out to all the families who have lost loved one due to recent tragic PIA airplane crash and those who have lost their lives due to COVID-19 Pandemic. Please everyone practice social distance throw out the EID Holidays. May Allah bless all man kind.
