In a video message, he said as Muslims we should turn to Allah with prayers, worship and repentance and take the precautionary measures and course of treatments as it is Sunnah of Holy Prophet (PBUH).

The Minister urged Ulema and Mashiekh to postpone all religions gatherings for the time being as precautionary measure to ensure protection of general public from this disease. 

He also urged them to end the Jumma prayers in a short time children and aged men should avoid to go for Jumma congregations.
