GAZIPUR, Feb 5: The second phase of the Bishwa Ijtema has ended on Wednesday with thousands of people participating in the Akheri Munajat, or special prayer service, on the banks of the Turag River in Gazipur's Tongi to wrap up one of the largest Muslim gatherings in the world.

Followers of Maulana Zubair Ahmed, identifying themselves as Tabligh Jamaat's "Shura-e-Nezam" took part in the second phase.

Senior cleric Zubair led the Akheri Munajat for his followers on Wednesday afternoon. The devotees prayed for unity, peace and welfare for Muslims across the world.

The Munajat began after 12pm and continued for 20 minutes. The devotees prayed for enlightenment, unity, peace, and salvation for Muslims across the globe in this world and in the afterlife. They also prayed for Allah's mercy and pardon for their misdeeds.

People from the surrounding neighbourhoods headed to the Ijtema grounds after the Fajr prayer on Wednesday to take part in the Munajat. As the day rolled on, the number of people on the highway surged. Thousands of people had taken up positions on the Dhaka-Mymensingh highway as the day broke.

Seven people have died during the Ijtema event so far, mostly due to old age complications or sickness.
