FEED THE POOR
Feeding the poor and needy is an act that draws us closer to Allah. We earn His forgiveness, mercies and blessings through this act of charity.
“Anyone who looks after and works for a widow and a poor person is like a warrior fighting for Allah?s cause, or like a person who fasts during the day and prays all night. (Bukhari)
Unlike the previous editions, this special edition of the T20 cricket tournament will see no franchises as BCB will run the seven participating teams with the help of sponsors
The players’ edition of the Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League 2019 was held at a city hotel on Sunday as Bangladesh Cricket Board look forward to stage a grand tournament.
Unlike the previous editions, this special edition of the T20 cricket tournament will see no franchises as BCB will run the seven participating teams with the help of sponsors.
For that reason, BCB has assigned one director for each of the team. However, only five of the seven teams will be backed by sponsors while the other two will be bankrolled by BCB.
