There is a saying “friends are tested in hour of trial”. Anyone who loves anything whether it is a country, a Maslak, personality or a person, he defends it to declare on the world about his expression of love that he is the true lover and devotee rather he utilises all his resources and tools to highlight his honour and dignity.

The more the love would be the more he would have to face strict test and trial so as to prove that everything could be given up but the loved one would not hesitate even to sacrifice his life for protecting the honour and dignity of the things or a person he loves.

The greatest and exemplary display of this spirit in human history is Karbala. In Karbala, 72 holy persons presented that greatest high character to save the ideology named religion (Islam) and Shariat that enjoys honour of being the most liked religion, and that was introduced by that Rasool (SAW) who was granted with the great medal of that Karbala became the sign of love, devotion, and sacrifice for ever.

Today, international colonial powers and her agents were attacking the greatest heroes of the same religion of Islam Khatmi Martabat (SAW), Ahle Bait-e-Atahaar (A.S.) and pious Sahaba Kubaar (R.A.) through the strongest tool of ‘media’. Therefore, it is an obligation of every follower of these holy personalities to enlighten their honour, dignity, chastity and greatness.

On this basis, the TNFJ has announced to observe the days of martyrdom of Khatmi Martabat (SAW), his grandson Shahzada-e-Sulah-o-Aman Hazrat Imam Hassan Mujtaba (A.S.) and Hazrat Imam Ali bin Moosa Ar-Reza (A.S.) as “Hafta-e-Azmat-e-Mustafa & Mujtaba” (Week of Dignity of Mustafa & Mujtaba) from 23 to 29 Safar throughout the country like other global parts.

Khatmi Martabat (SAW) whose saying is came in the end for completion of the religion. Therefore, crux of a paragraph from the first sermon from Nehjul Balagha goes as under:

. . . Allah sent Muhammad Rasool Allah (SAW) so as to fulfil His promise and he is Khatam-un-Nabiyyin. Allah had sought commitment from Prophets about the holy Prophet (SAW), their honours are famous and their births are honourable. When the Holy Prophet (SAW) was sent to this world, the different nations were in plenty in this world. Some of them used to relate Allah with His men, consider him like a creature. Some used to misquote his name, some used to give their opinion in favour of other against him. The Rasool (SAW) took out them towards guidance from evil and ignorance and saved them from evil-doing, ignorance and from being misled.

“Then Allah desired to meet His Rasool (SAW), He was happy with His Rasool (SAW), He considered His Rasool (SAW) superior from living in the world and face difficulties and therefore picked him up with dignity and honour. Then the Holy Prophet (SAW) left amongst you the same that had been left by Prophets (A.S) for their respective Ummats because Prophets did not leave their Ummats on any path and without permanent sign.”

Therefore, after the martyrdom of Khatmi Martabat (SAW), the Book and Ahle Bait are present for our guidance. The Book that claims that even if Jinn-o-Ins become together even then they could not bring anything similar to it “Every thing that is dry and wet is present in this Book”.

The other is Ahle Bait (A.S.) about whom, it is stated that:

“Those Ahle Bait-e-Rasool SAW (secret sharers of Rasool-e-Khuda), are the place shelter for Amar-e-Rasool, disseminating centre of knowledge, source of wisdom, solid rocks of divine books and protection of Rasool, who straightened the bending back of Allah’s religion and owing to whom the shivering of the hands of Islam was checked.”

Today these satanic powers are afraid of dissemination of this religion as it has to dominate the whole universe, have to restore justice and fair-play by rooting out oppression and brutality, have to make this world a hub of peace, this religion is the symbol of peace and tranquillity, protector of human dignity, source of guidance for the world of the oppressed, is protector, defender, and source of survival and spokesman of the oppressed world. For that reason, colonial power is using new tactics to exert pressure on the oppressed nations and the Islamic World. Sitting in Iraq after Afghanistan, terming some States as axis of evil, hurling of threats on Syria and Iran, stand as proof to this argument.

In this hour of trial, the followers of Mustafa (SAW) and Mujtaba (A.S.) are under the obligation to thwart this heinous conspiracy, and participate fully in the Hafta-e-Azmat-e-Mustafa & Mujtaba programmes, join the mourning (till the 8th Rabiul Awwal i.e. the day of Shahadat of Imam Hassan Askari (A.S.)) and continue raising the voice of protest against blasphemy, destruction of holy places, and join the universal protest of Azadari against oppression and brutality (that would continue till the Qayam-e-Mahdi (A.S.)).
