Muslims Flock to S.Africa for Ijtima

Thousands of Muslim devotees from South Africa and abroad have thronged to attend the annual Ijtima gathering in Johannesburg, testing a mood of spirituality and serenity with their brothers from around the world.

"I feel spiritually uplifted already," Jafar Kandulu, a Muslim from Malawi, told Anadolu Agency inside the gathering tents where a Malawian scholar was giving lectures in the local language.

"I look forward to attending next year's Ijtema," he said.

Kandulu is one of almost 10,000 people who attended the opening ceremony of this year’s ijtima.

The gathering, held annually in Johannesburg, attracts Muslim males who attend lectures during day or night.

Muslim scholars usually come from Asian counties including, India, Pakistan and other countries who give lectures to attendants.

Visitors also come from a number of African countries such as Malawi and Zimbabwe.

"The Ijtema is held every year in South Africa and we expect close to 20,000 Muslims to come and attend this spiritual conference," a local Muslim scholar and one of the organizers told AA, speaking on condition of anonymity.

"Some people have come from as far as Malawi, Zimbabwe and other neighboring countries to attend this powerful spiritual program which aims at motivating Muslims to live meaningful lives in the true path of Islam," he added.
