Despite intermittent rain, large numbers of worshippers gathered at Baitul Mukarram National Mosque for the Jumu'atul-Wida.

From the morning, devotees began arriving at the mosque, with the crowd steadily increasing as the day progressed. Many travelled from distant areas to offer Jumu'a prayers at the National mosque.

By around 1:00pm, the main prayer hall was filled. After the azan, the ground floor also reached capacity as more worshippers joined the congregation.

However, compared to previous years, attendance was slightly lower due to the rain.

The Jumu'atul-Wida prayers were led by Khatib Allama Mufti Abdul Malek.
