The fifth annual Naatiya Mushaira, organised under the Prophet For All Campaign, aimed to highlight the universal message of humanity and India’s shared cultural traditions.

Programme begins with Hamd and Naat

The programme opened with Arshiya Siddiqui presenting Hamd and Naat, followed by a melodious Naat by Anushka Nikam. Naats are poems in praise of Islam's prophet and his message.

Farid Ahmed Khan, president of Urdu Caravan, programme in-charge and a member of the Prophet For All Committee, said the annual Mushaira was eagerly awaited by lovers of the Prophet. He said participation by poets from Mumbai and different cities of Maharashtra added to the event’s importance.

“The presentation of devotional poetry by poets belonging to different faiths in praise of Prophet Muhammad is a shining example of India’s Ganga-Jamuni culture and shared traditions,” Khan said.

Campaign spreads message of tolerance

Advocate Yusuf Abrahani, president of Islam Gymkhana and chief patron of the campaign, said members of its core committee had visited several cities and districts in Maharashtra to spread the message of love, peace, tolerance and humanity.

The first session was conducted by poet Irfan Jafri and presided over by Dr Sagar Tripathi, an author of several collections of Naatiya poetry. The second session was conducted by Madhav B Noor and presided over by Sarfaraz Arzoo, chairman of the All India Khilafat Committee.

Sydney Swans LIVE updates: Women’s and men’s team play first matches following week of scandal

Jesse Kriel makes a promise to Springbok fans

· The South African

Springbok centre Jesse Kriel was gracious following the team’s defeat against the All Blacks in Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry series opener in Johannesburg on Saturday night, and said they would take the result on the chin and put in the hard yards in the coming days to ensure that they pitch up stronger next weekend.

The Springboks went down 33-16 at Ellis Park, and had Sunday off to recover from the physically demanding clash, before returning to the training field on Monday to begin their preparations for the second encounter between the sides at the Cape Town Stadium in Cape Town next Saturday.

“We’ll obviously watch the game again and work through it,” Kriel told the media after Saturday’s match.

“We have another whole week to prepare, and we’ll do what we need to do. We’re a team that finds solutions, and we’ll be up for it next week.”

Convert opportunities

The outside centre, who earned his 91st Test cap, reiterated Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus’ sentiments after the match that at top international level, you have to convert your opportunities into points.

“In Test match rugby, if you don’t convert and take your opportunities and other teams do, the scoreboard is normally not in your favour and we clearly had to be more clinical,” said Jesse Kriel.

“The All Blacks were when they got their chances, and at the highest level between the two best teams in the world, that’s what happens.

“There are very small margins for error in a Test match of this magnitude and on an occasion like this, so we’ll have to be better there, and we are looking forward to the challenge next week.”

‘Have to be able to adapt’

With the Springbok coaches forced to make several positional changes during the game due to a series of occurrences throughout the match, Kriel, who moved to wing, said they do plan for situations like that.

“In big games like this you have to be able to adapt,” he said.

“It doesn’t normally happen a lot, but when it does, I think we reacted pretty well. I just don’t think we were as accurate as we wanted to be on the night, and New Zealand put us under a lot of pressure.”

Travel plans

The Springboks will remain in Johannesburg until Wednesday and travel to Cape Town on Thursday.

They will then return to Johannesburg for the third match between the sides at the FNB Stadium near Soweto before travelling to the USA for the closing game of the competition in Baltimore.
