RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: The martyrdom anniversary of Hazrat Imam Moosa Kazim (A.S.) was observed as “Youm-e-Bab-ul Hawaij” throughout the country with religious spirit, devotion and respect, on the call of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi.

Majalis-e-Aza followed by Taboot processions were organised at Imambargahs, Aza Khanas and religious institutions in all small and big cities, towns and villages of the country including all the four provinces, Federal Capital Islamabad, Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas, under the auspices of different religious and Matmi organizations and religious institutions.

The main Taboot procession was taken out from the residence of Syed Ghulam Haider Shah Kazmi in Chuhr Harpal during which the participants extended condolence through Zanjeer-Zani, Noha-Khwani and Matamdari. The procession after passing through its designated routes terminated at shrine of Sakhi Shah Piyara Kazmi Al-Mashadi where renowned ulema and zakireen addressed Majlis-e-Aza.

The speakers condemned attack on Matmi procession in Iraqi city of Kazmain on the occasion of Youm-e-Shahadat of Imam Moosa Kazim (A.S.), in which over one thousand Matmis were martyred, and termed it the activity of enemies of Islam.

Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya Regional Council President Allama Abul Hassan Taqi in his address announced that complete solidarity would be expressed with the oppressed Iraqis by observing three-day mourning throughout the country on the directive of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Syed Hamid Moosavi.

A resolution unanimously adopted on the occasion lamented that lakhs of people have been martyred, cities after cities have been destructed so much so that holy places in Najaf, Karbala and Kazmain were also not spared since the allied forces interfered in Iraq, shrine of Hazrat Ali was desecrated as a result of which it was locked as a protest.

The resolution made it clear that chief of the international Taghoot i.e. America is responsible for the Baghdad (Kazimiya) incident that took place on 25th Rajab. The only solution to this tragic situation is that rulers of Muslim States get rid of the international Taghoot and hand over their fate to Allah, come out of their shells, and consider attack on any Muslim and oppressed country or a human being as illegal rather an attack on the whole humanity.

The resolution lamented that State terrorism is going on in Kashmir and Palestine for more than a half century as a result of which lakhs of people have been killed, thousands put in jail, uncountable children have become orphan and women turned widows. In addition, Afghanistan was destructed in the garb of New York incident then they shattered Iraq into pieces and their next targets would be other Muslim States and despite that some Muslim States are being accused of promoting evil but the Islamic World, Arab League and OIC are keeping criminal silence. They neither summon any emergent session nor lodge any protest on such situation.

The resolution called upon the OIC to gather courage and devise a combined strategy to deal with the situation.
