RAWALPINDI, Pakistan : Ayyam-e-Tajdeed-e-Ehad announced by Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya in connection with the Shahadat of Hazrat Imam Hassan Askari (A.S.) continued throughout the country on Sunday.

Addressing the Majlis Tajdeed-e-Ehad held at Sheb-e-Abi Talib, TNFJ Women Wing chief Binte Ali Moosavi said the whole universe rests on knowledge and the Khasan-e-Ilahi were sent laced with that great weapon. She said the Holy Prophet (SAW) has been termed Madina-tul-Ilm (City of Knowledge) while his inheritors are Abwab-e-Ilm (Gates of Knowledge) from amongst those Hazrat Imam Hassan Askari (A.S.) was the sea of knowledge from which every thirsty person is satisfying his urge.

She said according to renowned intellectual Khwarzmi, as many as 18,000 students benefited from the teachings of Imam Hassan Askari (A.S.). From amongst the courtiers of Khalifah Abbasi, that first who underwent Baia’at at his hand was Muhammad bin Masood Shirazi. In a letter to his devotees he wrote that because you love us so I give you an advice to adopt Zuhd-o-Taqwa, ignore the mistakes of others, overcome the rage, be kind to others, cooperate with the needy, ponder over religion and Shariat, seek knowledge of Quran, be regular in worship, follow the good deeds and also ask others to do so. She said when Imam Hassan Askari bin Ali Naqi (A.S.) was four years old, he was under the supervision of soldiers of the then rulers at a place known as Askar, that is why he was known as Askari. He was arrested on the orders of Mutamid after the Shahadat of his father but all prisoners became fond of him owing to his moral obligations. Jail keepers used to deliver reports about him daily and he kissed martyrdom on 8th Rabiul Awwal, 260 Hijra. His son Imam Al-Asr led the funeral prayer soon after which the era of Ghaibat-e-Sughra (minor occultation) began.

Syeda Binte Ali Moosavi said that Hazrat Imam Hassan Askari (A.S.) thwarted all evil tactics of the rulers in his era through his pious seerat and character. She said Imam Askari (A.S.) used to advice in plenty that lead a simple life, avoid over-spending, say Salam to one whoever you visit, be seated in the end when visit a gathering as it is the sign of acceptance, avoid speaking lie as it is the root cause of all evils, devotion with Ahle Bait (A.S.) is the sign of faith (Iman) and one who believes in Hereafter fulfils his promise.

She said the followers of Maktab-e-Jaffar ibne Muhammad (A.S.) reiterate their resolve at the conclusion of Ayyam-e-Aza that they would utilise all their energies for promoting religion and Shariat, and would continue Hussainiyyat that is the other name of religion and Shariat and Azadari that is the international protest of the oppressed against oppressors till the flag of justice and fair-play is hoisted high.

A resolution adopted on the occasion expressed complete solidarity with Kashmir, Palestine and the oppressed nations and colonial oppression against them was strongly condemned.

The resolution expressed concern that at present thousands of people are detained in Iraqi jails while the poor, labourers, pilgrims and innocent people are being suppressed. Moreover the honour and respect of Madain which is the hub of holy graves of Hazrat Salman Farsi, Hozaifa Yemeni, Hazrat Jabir ibne Abdullah Ansari and Hazrat Abdullah ibne Jaffar Tayyar is being trampled.

Strongly condemning these oppressive acts, the resolution expressed complete solidarity with the Iraqi people, expressed hatred against all oppressive forces terming them responsible for such acts and demanded from all human rights organisations including the United Nations and the ICC to check these oppressive acts against humanity, oppressed and have-nots.

Allama Mohsin Ali Hamdani and Naseer Hussain Sabzwari addressed the Ayyam Tajdeed-e-Ehad Majlis at Qasr-e-Abu Talib followed by Matamdari. Allama Basharat Hussain Imami and others addressed a Majlis at Qasr-e-Khadijatul Kubra Tarlai Kalan that followed Matamdari.
