RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has announced to observe universal Chehlum (fortieth day) of all countrymen who kissed martyrdom in disastrous earthquake in Azad Kashmir, Sarhad province and other areas, on Friday, November 25.

Addressing the office-bearers of TNFJ Relief Committee for Earthquake Victims that called on him here on Sunday under the leadership of Convener Hassan Raza Bokhari, he said death has to come. That is why Quran says:

Agha Moosavi said human being is the best amongst all creatures and Allah Has created everything for him while created the human being for Himself, but He also confronted the human being with problems and difficulties so as to test which one of them works well.

Because

Servant and what is his, is his master’s

It is His discretion whether he tests someone are makes him work.

He said the October 8 earthquake was the severe test of Pakistanis in which uncountable persons lost their life and kissed martyrdom. Quran Khwani, Majalis-e-Taraheem, and collective dua congregations should be organised for upgradation of their status and special prays should be offered for rehabilitation of the affected and early recovery of the injured.

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Hamid Moosavi made it clear that every Pakistani is the part of our body, therefore, irrespective of the fact that to whom the government had extended invitation to attend the recent Donors’ Conference or not, we all are under the obligation to participate in the woes of the affected and help them with an open heart.

The Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya (TNFJ) has already made an appeal to the nation to deposit their donations in the President’s Relief Fund or forward the same to their nearby mosques, Imambargahs and religious institutions for this purpose. Moreover, they can also deposit their donations in the office of TNFJ Relief Committee directly.

Meanwhile, a TNFJ Committee has been formed to organise universal Chehlum of those who were martyred in the earthquake. Meesam Tammar has been nominated as Convener and Abu Nasr Kazmi as Secretary of this Committee.
