Thousands attend Ibd historic hussaini procession; Zanjir-zani performed

By: Salman Alvi

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Annual Alam and Zuljinah procession was taken out from Jamia-tul-Murtaza G-9/4 Islamabad under the auspices of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, to pay homage to grandson of holy Prophet (SAW), Hazrat Imam Hussain (A.S.) and his sincere companions for the invaluable sacrifices rendered by them in Karbala.

The thousands of mourners present in the procession reiterated their resolve to promote message of Hussainiyyat for survival and solidarity of motherland Pakistan, and to promote Sunni-Shia brotherhood, and every conspiracy of enemies of religion and country would be thwarted by unity.

Khateeb Fateh-e-Farat in his address to Matamdaran-e-Hussain at Muhammadi Chowk G-9/2 said the grief of Imam Aali Muqam (A.S.) is not inheritance of any particular school of thought rather his sacrifice was for human values and Godly principles, that is why every conscious person is indebted to Hussain ibne Ali (A.S.).

A resolution adopted by the participants while raising vociferous slogans made it clear that Muharramul Haram is the month of mourning Imam Aali Muqam (A.S.) and is commensurate with the Azadari-e-Imam-e-Mazloom-e-Karbala (A.S.) that is a great worship of the mourners. The resolution said that if there had been no sacrifice of Hussain ibne Ali (A.S.) in Karbala, then there would have neither mosques nor calls for prayers (Azan). Despite that fact, it said, the government has not yet formed Azadari Muharram Cells at Federal and Provincial level despite several reminders although the first Ashra of Muharram is about to end and this delay is creating many problems for Azadaran.

The resolution while strongly condemning the suicide bomb blast at Imambargah Yadgar-e-Hussain Satellite Town on Saturday, termed it a conspiracy of the joint enemy. The resolution demanded from the government to implement the Anti-Terrorism Act strictly.

Another resolution lamented that musical and comedy programmes were still continuing on the electronic media. The resolution said that the world has learnt the lesson of staging protest from Azadari Mazloom-e-Karbala and everyone accepts that no one is the biggest oppressed than Hussain (A.S.) and no protest is bigger than Azadari. It said joining Azadari could thwart all plans of Yazidan-e-Asr but sincerity of purpose is condition for that.

The resolution strongly demanded from the government to form Azadari Cells at Federal and Provincial level including Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas and effectively implement the Anti-Terrorism Act to facilitate Azadaran.

The participants of the procession resolved to fully implement the country-wide Code of Azadari announced by Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya and demanded from the government to give ideological representation to Maktab-e-Tashayyo in all State departments, and to implement the May 21, 1985 Junejo-Moosavi agreement for solution of long-standing issues of the Millat-i-Jafariya, Pakistan.

Another resolution while strongly condemning the Middle Class exam schedule given by Directorate of Education Rawalpindi termed it their ignorance towards Islam and Hussainiyyat. Ch. Mushtaq Hussain also addressed the gathering.

The procession terminated at Jamia Imam As-Sadiq Karachi Company after marching through its designated route. Replica of Zuljinah, Alam, Cradle of Ali Asghar (A.S.), Coffin Shahzada Qasim (A.S.) were included in the procession.

Mukhtar Students Organisation, Ibrahim Scouts, Mukhtar Generation, Mukhtar Force and other religious and political organisations participated in the procession’s arrangements. Sabeel-e-Hussaini was also arranged during the procession.

Members of the Muharram Committee led by Convener Syed Nazakat Hussain Shah Kazmi, high officials of the Administration and a heavy contingent of police escorted the procession all along its route.

Earlier, a Majlis-e-Aza was held at Jamia-tul-Murtaza before taking out the procession. Allama Sheikh Ijaz Hussain Modarris, Allama Zawwar Hussain Madni, Zakir Ibne Ali Kazmi and others addressed the Majlis.
