We had huge response from Muslims and Non Muslim who approached us and wanted to know about Muharram and Imam Hussein (a.s) in specific and Islam in general. We could reach these people through all the above activities and all these activities were possible only because of our support and Duas and under the guidance of Imame Zamana (atfs). We once again thank you for your financial support and present you the plans for the hijri 1424

Mahe Muharram Hijri 1424 Plans

“Invite (all) to the way of thy Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching; and reason with them in ways that are best and most gracious.” (Al – Qur’an 16: 125)

After praising Almighty Allah and with the blessings of His last deputy Hadharat Vali e Asr (atfs). As you know Muharram is approaching close by, this year like last year we are planning to have a project explaining people the purpose of Azadari. For the same cause here are few of our plans for this year:

FREE BOOKS: The foremost part of plan is to publish 1000 book on the sacrifice of Imam Hussein (as) called “Imam Hussein the Leader of the Entire Humanity” as you know this book not only covers the sacrifice of Imam Hussein (as), but also has the views of National and International personalities viz. Mahatma Gandhi, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Justice Charles, Sarojini Naidu and so on, which explains the importance of sacrifice of Imam Hussein (as) and the service of Imam Hussein (as) to humanity. This book would be distributed FREE of charge to solve the purpose.

FREE Mineral Water distribution: This year we want to increase the venues of distribution of free water to VT Station, Churgate Station, Andheri Station, Bandra Station and many important Signals of the city and its suburbs to reach the masses and explaining people the purpose of Azadari.

Hoardings and Banners: We are planning to as many hoardings as possible and also hire few Bus Shelters in various parts of Mumbai The location for the hoardings would be at prime spots such as Church gate, Fountain, VT, Dadar, Bandra, Andheri, Borivili, Haji Ali, Walkeshwar, Kemps Corner, Vashi and others. All these hoardings will be very informative and will have a purpose to let people understand the concept of mourning in Muharram, and we would have catchy slogans to invite people who want to know about Imam Hussein (as) and his great sacrifice. We’ll have a slogan that will invite people for FREE books at World Islamic Network.

Like last year we are very hopeful to reach huge number of Muslim and Non Muslims audience and explain them the purpose of sacrifice of Imam Hussein (as). There are many Hindus and Christians who follow Azadari, we want to reach those people and slowly invite them towards the path of Ahlul Bayt (as). It is not WE but IMAM HUSSAIN (AS) who will GUIDE them.
