Rt. Hon. Speaker Anita Among has encouraged Muslims to take care of the needy this Ramadhan season. She made these remarks as she hosted Muslims to an Iftar Dinner at Parliament.

“As we retreat to our homes, we should not forget the less privileged who cannot afford a proper meal and others without shelter. Leading by example, the speaker’s office will donate Shs50 million to the Al-Hidaya Mosque in support of promoting the work of Almighty Allah,” she said.

Dr. Abdul Hafiz Wakusimbi who was the guest speaker requested the 11th Parliament to make provision for the Khadi courts. This would allow Muslims to be able to discipline their own.

“The Constitution of Uganda allows us to have freedom of worship but they did not make provision for the Khadi courts. We all know the backlog in the courts of law. Working on having the Khadi courts will help reduce these many cases in the courts,” he said.

On the other hand, Asuman Basalirwa, the chairperson of the Parliamentary Muslim Group asked the Parliamentary Commission to consider expanding the mosque at Parliament.

This is to cater to the growing number of Muslim faithful. Furthermore, the commission is yet to think about this probably and put it into action.

Muslims are already halfway through the fasting period so the plans on how they are going to celebrate Ramadan are already underway.
