As I contemplate on how to pen down my experience as a mentor for the recently concluded WF girls’ youth course, my thoughts run to the time when I was a little girl and yearned to go out and explore the world, similar to these girls who were bubbling with exuberance, vitality and an insatiable thirst for learning new things. My mentoring experience to these girls was exhilarating and a source of enlightenment.

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.
We are honoured to say that since the establishment of this Islamic Centre by The World Federation, this was the first Muharram Ashra that was held in the capital city of Nepal.
