Maulana Abdul Khabeer Azad, the khateeb of Lahore's Badshahi Mosque, said that all of the government's standard operating procedures for curbing the spread of the coronavirus were being followed.
In a statement, he urged other mosques to follow suit. "I urge all those mosques violating the government's directives to refrain from doing so in order to protect people's health."
He added that if the current situation persists, then Eidul Fitr prayers will also be held according to the government's directives.
