Moosavi in Eid message calls to remember oppressed, Tsunami victims

By: Salman Alvi

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya and chief of the Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya, has said the obligation of Hajj and sacrifice is the highest example of subservience, obedience, unity and brotherhood.

He stated this in a message issued on the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha. He said in world religions only Islam has the honour of being “deen-e-fitrat” (the religion of nature) which says,

The person and his every belonging is for Master.

He said same is the philosophy of Ismail’s sacrifice that religion is dearest of life, wealth, honour, dignity and everything. He said there are 114 Surahs in Holy Quran, and five from amongst the 124 thousand prophets are ‘oolul azm’, some prophets are such in the name of whom there are Quranic Surahs including Surah Ibrahim.

Moosavi said prayer is that great worship that if it is accepted then all deeds are accepted, and if it is not accepted then no deed is accepted but there is no Quranic Surah in the name of prayer and fasting but Surah-e-Hajj is there which indicates its honour and respectability and which gives an idea about the status of Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S.).

That is why, he said, when followers of prophet (SAW) asked the Holy Prophet (SAW) that what is the reality behind sacrifice, he said

It is the Sunnah (practice) of your father Ibrahim.

The TNFJ chief said centralisation and unity enjoy utmost importance in Islam and Hajj is the biggest congregation of world of humanity that is carried out in Makkah Mukarrama in these days and where hundreds of thousands of people gather from east and west, north and south to perform Hajj with an objective to understand the woes of one another.

He said Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S.) preferred to jump into the fire of Ibrahim, give up his motherland and sacrifice his dearest thing i.e. son in way of Allah

And Allah turned it into

and Iqbal stated this in this manner that:

“Hussain is its end while Ismail beginning”

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Hamid Moosavi said the whole Islamic World and the oppressed nations should understand the philosophy of sacrifice and give priority to subservience to the Creator and service to the oppressed. He said the oppressed and have-nots of Kashmir, Palestine, Iraq and Tsunami should be remembered on this occasion.
