This session has been integral part of SSGC’s event calendar for more than a decade which is convened every year to mark the start of the blessed month of Ramadan.
On April 1, 2022, a soulful session was convened by SSGC’s Corporate Communication Department in the Company’s Head Office Auditorium. A large number of Company employees participated in the event that featured reputed Islamic scholar Mufti Mohammad Sohail Raza Amjadi and naat khawans Mohammad Faisal Hasan Naqshbandi and Mahmood-ul-Hasan Ashrafi.
The event was also marked by the presence of wellness trainer and media celebrity Yogi Wajahat.
Mufti Amjadi delivered an enlightening address on the infinite blessings of Ramadan. He said that Ramadan does not just provide us an opportunity to fast but is also a time for spiritual reflection and introspection. Mufti Amjadi implored on the audience to donate profusely to charitable causes during the month. Later naat khawans Mohammad Faisal Hasan Naqshbandi and Mahmood-ul-Hasan Ashrafi took the audience to an entirely different spiritual ground with haunting renditions of naats.
An audio recording of Salman A. Siddiqui, Head of Corporate Communications was played in which he reminiscenced about a time when Ramadan was seen as a month long festival in which every one participated with an unprecedented enthusiasm and gusto.
In his presentation, Yogi Wajahat stressed that Ramadan has plenty of health benefits to offer for one’s body and gave some useful tips for keeping themselves fit during and after the fasting hours.
The ceremony was adroitly conducted by Mohammad Ali Gohar, a former SSGC employee. As a customary gesture, packet of dates were presented to each participant. Bouquets and Company giveaways were also presented to Mufti saheb and all other guest speakers and Naat khuwaans.
