A Seeratunnabi (PBUH) gathering was held on Tuesday afternoon at the Shaheed Shafiur Rahman Hall of the Supreme Court Bar Association, organised by the Seeratunnabi Mahfil Celebration Committee, Supreme Court branch. Jamaat-e-Islami Assistant Secretary General Maulana Abul Hasnat Md Abdul Halim attended as chief guest, while Islamic thinker Mufti Ali Hasan Usama was the chief discussant.

Speaking at the event, Abdul Halim said human rights and justice are important matters for lawyers and urged the legal community to help ensure both by following the ideals of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He said lawyers could play an important role in establishing human rights and justice based on those ideals.

Mufti Ali Hasan Usama cited Quranic verses and called on lawyers not to fight cases for traitors or strengthen falsehood. He said livelihood should not be used as a reason to compromise with injustice, urging lawyers to stand for justice and assist oppressed people. The programme was chaired by Supreme Court advocate Md Mosiul Alam and conducted by advocate Saifur Rahman, with several lawyers and senior advocates attending.
