Mangalore, September 24: The Khatheeb of Masjidunnoor Maulana Abdul Azeez on Friday warned the Muslim community against groupism, dishonesty and lacking of thaqwa in life.

Delivering the Jum'ah sermon in a convincing tongue, Maulana called upon the Muslim community to respect and honour Masjid, one of the symbols of Allah on the earth.

Quoting the Qur'anic verse, “And the Masjids are for Allah (alone), so invoke not anyone along with Allah”, Khateeb said that the Muslims should enter the Masjid only for the purpose of Ibadah.

Terming the Masjid as the Centre of Muslims' religious and spiritual activity, he warned against misusing Allah's house for sowing the seed of discord and groupism.

A large number of Muslims paid attention to the sermon. Masjidunnoor, which is located on the heart of the city had witnessed a bitter incident in the previous Jum'ah, when two small groups openly quarrelled over the issue of women's entry to Masjid for Friday prayers.

However, both the quarrelling groups have reached to a temporary compromise after the interference of the management committee of the Masjid.

In a bid to avoid the recurrence of last Friday's incidence, the office bearers of the management committee convened a meeting of both parties on Thursday and convinced them that a separate portion will be erected on the top of the Masjid to cope up with the increasing number of devotees.

According to sources, the management has asked the representatives of women to give them two months to build an extra portion on the top of the Masjid, after which women can offer Jum'ah prayers too inside the Masjid without any problem. Agreeing with the management, no woman entered the Masjid for Jum'ah Namaz this Friday.

Bengaluru, Jun 11: Most COVID-19 deaths in Karnataka occur when infected elderly people, those with Severe Acute Respiratory Illness (SARI) or any other symptoms delay reaching designated hospitals, a top official said.

Munish Moudgil, chief of COVID-19 War Room in the state, said most of those infected with the virus are brought to COVID-19 designated hospitals at a very late stage and recovery then becomes extremely tough.

He said about 65 per cent of those killed suffered from SARI and are aged above 60.

The death rate due to SARI is 43 per cent for those in the 40-60 age group, he said, releasing data on coronavirus deaths, to reporters.

In the same age group, the mortality due to Influenza Like Illness (ILI) was 17.4 per cent, whereas it is 11.1 per cent among people aged above 60 .

He said 25 per cent of symptomatic patients aged above 60 die due to the virus, while it was 10.7 per cent in the 40-60 age group.

The fatalities among those aged 60 is high even if they are asymptomatic, Mr Moudgil, who is secretary in the Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms, said.

He said the average number of days spent at these hospitals by those who recovered is about 15 days, compared to 3.5 days for those who died of the virus.

"Hence persons who are elderly and who have comorbidities or who have SARI must reach designated Covid hospitals at the earliest," Mr Moudgil said.

As of date, Karnataka has reported 69 COVID-19 deaths As many as 6,041 people have tested positive for COVID-19, including 2,862 discharges and 3,108 active cases.
