"All mosques are closed. This time nothing looks like Eid. All the people are celebrating Eid at home. It has also been told in our Islam that if there is a danger to life or if there are health issues, you can offer namaz at home," Mohammad Qasmi said.

All places of worship are closed for public amid lockdown as per government guidelines. "All religious places or places of worship shall be closed for public. Religious congregations are strictly prohibited," the MHA guidelines state.
