KARACHI/ PESHAWAR, Pakistan: As per directives from Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya TNFJ Chief Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi to observe Shawal 8 as Jannat-ul-Baqi Destruction Day, big demonstrations were held in Karachi, Peshawar and Noshehra along with other cities of Pakistan.

TNFJ Karachi raised its voice in front of Karachi press club. In the demonstration, it was demanded from the Saudi government to reconstruct the demolished ziaraat (holy shrines) of Jazrat Fatimah Zahra (S.A.), Ummahat-ul-Momenin (R.A.), Ahl-e-Bait-e-Atahar (A.S.) and respectable Sahaba-e-Karam (R.A.) immediately in Jannat-ul-Baqi and Jannat-ul-Moalla. The demonstration was led by Allama Waqar HassanTaqvi and Allama Jafar Raza Naqvi.

While addressing the procession, Allama Waqar said the problems like earthquake and hurricanes which Muslim nation is going through is due to the fact tat the holy shrines of these honorable personalities have been demolished yet the governments of the so-called Islamic States are taking no action and are observing dead-silence. If they want everything to go smoothly then they will have to rebuild tese demolished sacred places once again.

Allama Jafar Raza said that the government of Pakistan is bound as per 21st May 1985’s Moosavi-Junejo Accord that on the official level Pakistan government will force the Saudi government for the reconstruction of these demolished holy shrines in the holy graveyards of Baqi and Moalla. It is the highest point of regret that the tombs from Quaid-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah to Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and from Allama Iqbal to Zia-ul-Haq are all set with their enthusiasm and zest but the holy grave of daughter of Prophet Muhammad (S.W.) is left demolished under open skies.

In Peshawar, a mourning procession organized by Youm-e-Inhidaam-e-Jannatul Baqee District Committee was taken out from Imambargah Master Ghulam Haider Chowk Chah Shahbaz that turned out into protest rally after reaching Shaheed Chowk of Qissa Khwani Bazar.

Later the procession ended after reaching the Imambargah where Maulana Tanvir Hussain Shirazi addressed the Majlis-e-Aza.
