NZ ISCHRO terms shrines attack as an assault on revered Imams
By: International Shia Cultural and Human Rights Organization
AUCKLAND, New Zealand: The International Shia Cultural
and Human Rights Organization (ISCHRO) from New Zealand condemned the
bombing of sacred religious sites.
On 22nd of February 2006, extremists carried out bombings in the
Shrine of Imam Ali Al-Hadi (AS) and Imam Hasan Al-Askari (AS) in
Samarra.
Samarra is home to the historical Askariya Shrine where the 10th and
11th Imams have been buried. Imam Ali Al-Hadi (AS) and Imam Hasan Al-Askari
(AS), both descendants of Prophet Muhammad (SW), were poisoned by the
Abbasid government in the 9th Century.
The explosion caused the golden dome of the shrine to collapse.
Shrines of the 12 Imams are highly respected and large numbers of
devotees visit them on a daily basis. An attack on the shrines of such
highly respected personalities is regarded as an assault on revered
Imams and a disregard for religious beliefs.
ISCHRO presented its condolences to Muslims around the world for the
destruction of sacred historical sites.

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
