The Islamic Religious Community (IRC) has just published a letter it sent to the
government on May 18. The letter clearly states that the IRC is against declaring an
extended curfew. The IRC also emphasizes that they will not cancel the prayer for
Ramadan Bayram.
“We as a religious institution exist to serve the believers and we will not carry a
burden on our backs by postponing the Bayram prayer in the mosque,” reads IRC
letter.
