KARACHI: The Bohra Muslims Community is celebrating Eidul-Fitr in Karachi and other parts of Pakistan today, without an official moon sighting.
Following the sermon, the community members rushed to Tahiri Masjid in the Saddar neighborhood of Karachi, where prayers were held.
While Muslims in Pakistan and other Muslim nations celebrate Eid after seeing the Shawwal moon, Bohras celebrate the holiday without waiting for Ramadan to end.
For Eid-ul-Fitr, the mosque was subject to extra security measures, including the deployment of police and Rangers officers.
