Muharram functions were held daily for both ladies and gents at the Islamic Centre in Kathmandu, Nepal. A total of around 150 attended the daily programmes. In order to cope with everyone attending, the ladies’ programme would start in the afternoon, followed by the gents in the evening.
The programme followed the process, starting with Ziyarat Ashura, poems in Urdu and Persian, lecture by their Resident Alim Maulana Zainul Abideen, eulogy recitation, latmiyyah and ending with dinner.
