ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Tens of thousands of Hussaini mourners participated in the historic annual Zuljinah procession that was taken out from Jamia-tul-Murtaza G-9/4 Islamabad under the auspices of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi on Muharram 8.

The participants, while paying rich homage to grandson of holy Prophet (SAW) and son of Hazrat Ali (A.S.) and Hazrat Fatimah (A.S.), Hazrat Imam Hussain (A.S.) and his sincere companions for the invaluable sacrifices rendered by them in Karbala, reiterated their resolve that they would not hesitate in offering any sacrifice acting on Hussaini determination to thwart universal conspiracies against Islam and Prophet (SAW).

Replica of Zuljinah, Alam, Cradle of Ali Asghar (A.S.), and Coffin Shahzada Qasim (A.S.) were included in the procession.

On reaching Muhammadi Chowk, Khateeb Fateh-e-Farat and Chauhdry Mushtaq Hussain addressed to Matamdaran-e-Hussain and said the grief of Imam Aali Muqam (A.S.) is not inheritance of any particular school of thought rather his sacrifice was for human values and Godly principles, that is why every conscious person is indebted to Hussain ibne Ali (A.S.).

Condemning last day terrorism in Tank, they termed it an act of enemies of Islam and Pakistan, and appreciated Tank’s Shia-Sunni brethren who foiled the conspiracy of enemies through unity. They demanded effective implementation of Anti-Terrorism Act.

The participants raising vociferous slogans passed a resolution which made it clear that Muharramul Haram is the month of mourning Imam Aali Muqam (A.S.) and is commensurate with the Azadari-e-Imam-e-Mazloom-e-Karbala (A.S.) that is a great worship of the mourners. The resolution said that if there had been no sacrifice of Hussain ibne Ali (A.S.) in Karbala, then there would have neither mosques nor calls for prayers (Azan).

It said that the first Ashra of Muharram is about to end but some provincial governments have not yet formed Azadari Muharram Cells despite several reminders while Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya had set up Azadari Control Rooms on federal and provincial level including Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas ahead of Muharram, which are working round the clock.

The resolution demanded from the government to issue directions to the administration to cooperate with Azadaran instead of creating problems for them which damages the government credibility.

Another resolution lamented that musical and comedy programmes were still continuing on the electronic media.

The resolution said that the world has learnt the lesson of staging protest from Azadari Mazloom-e-Karbala and according to a saying of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Hamid Moosavi no one is the biggest oppressed than Hussain (A.S.) and no protest is bigger than Azadari.

The participants of the procession resolved to fully follow the country-wide Code of Azadari announced by Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Moosavi and vowed to support every line of action given by him for promotion of Mission of Wila and Aza and achievement of rights of Millat-e-Jafariya Pakistan.

The resolution demanded implementation of Junejo-Moosavi agreement of 21 May 1985 for resolution of longstanding problems of Maktab-e-Tashayyo.

By anoter resolution, te grand procession severely condemned electronic and print media for not dding “wa Aalehi” with holy Prophet (SAW) and “Alay-his-salam” with Ahle Bait-e-Atahar (A.S.).

Another resolution strongly denounced insult of Resalat by Danish, Norwegian, French, Jordan, Swiss and other European publications.
