Moosavi’s message on Imam Ar-Reza (AS)’s martyrdom day

By: Salman Alvi

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan - April 19: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan has said only alternative centre of independent world could stop American reptile, therefore, time has come for Pakistan to play a leading role being an atomic power but they will have to get rid of America, for this purpose. He stated this in a special message issued on the occasion of Youm-e-Shahadat of Imam Zamin Hazrat Ali bin Moosa Ar-Reza (A.S.) that would be observed on Sunday throughout the country including Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas with devotion, respect and religious fervour.

He said the representatives of Allah had been in habit of achieving supremacy for Islam, confronting oppression and brutality with the sole purpose of inviting others towards Allah and to save them from Taghoot. He said Hazrat Imam Reza (A.S.) is amongst those holy personalities whose life span spread over 54 years preaches a great lesson that bowing down before any tyrant ruler, dictator and oppressor is a great sin.

Agha Moosavi said the Imam Zamin (A.S.) had declared struggle in way of religion a Jihad and termed the Kalma-e-Tauheed as Asaas (foundation) of the Islamic State and citadel of Allah. He said the tough time he spent in detention could not shatter his commitment and by kissing martyrdom he proved that this great honour guarantees survival for the oppressed and a blessing for them. He said oppressors in every era have considered the representatives of Allah, who never bow down before anyone, as a biggest danger for them because an oppressor is always cowardice and sees his survival in rooting out those from his path who are righteous.

The TNFJ chief said, today the whole world of humanity is confronted with the biggest oppressor of this era. He reminded that the great tragedy of fall of Baghdad first took place on February 10, 1258 in which 2 million people lost their life and blood started running in Dajla and Farat in place of water. He said American president carried out aggression against Baghdad and shattered it in the similar fashion.

He said Bush had already unveiled his designs in a speech delivered in the beginning of Iraq war that America has initiated “Saleebi” war that could continue till 50 years. He said the American objective is to form Akhand Israel by the year 2005, and actually she desires to cease resources of the oppressed and to weaken their military, economic and monetary power because 50 years period is not required for Iraq but she could divert her initiative towards Syria, Iran and Pakistan after taking full control over Iraq. He said the American threats hurled over Syria and Iran is no more a secret.

Agha Moosavi said America was expressing joy over the new history of oppression and brutality she wrote in Iraq, therefore, the world should not be optimistic. He said America would fulfill her expansionist designs whether the whole world bows down in front of her. He said in the meantime, statement of American foreign minister Colin Powell saying that America will settle the Pakistan-India dispute after Iraq, is alarming and our rulers should treat it with wisdom because it has come at a time when the Indian prime minister has surprising agreed for a dialogue with Pakistan. He said if Pakistan did not accept American solution and did not fulfill the American desire to freeze and roll back its atomic program then let us see what comes next.

He said if anything could create hurdle before American designs, it could be a new forum of Muslim and oppressed nations in which States outside United Nations should also be included.

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi while terming the efforts to form MATO for joint defense of the Muslim States as “pleasing”, has stressed the need to follow it so as to make it active because Arab League and OIC already exist but they did nothing so far for Muslim cause. Had they done something before, then there would have been no fall of Dhaka, no fall of Kabul, and no fall of Baghdad, he added.

Presenting his condolences to Bargah-e-Risalat on the Youm-e-Shahadat of Hazrat Imam Reza (A.S.), he reiterated his resolve to continue his struggle to keep the flag of Islam high and to keep the interests of religion and the motherland supreme.
