ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: The Universal Ayyam-ul-Huzn programmes marking the martyrdom anniversary of Ummul Momineen Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) concluded throughout the country like other global parts on Friday.

Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi had announced to observe the days.

In Federal Capital Islamabad, Ummul Momineen Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) conference was held at Babul Ilm Academy under the auspices of District Ayyam-ul-Huzn Committee of the TNFJ (Women Wing). Begum Syed Qamar Zaidi presided over while Mukhtar Students Organisation (Taalbat Wing) Coordinator Syeda Umme Nasam Bokhari, woman scholar Syeda Samana Naqvi, and Begum Allama Syed Hussain Muqaddasi were the guests of honour.

Delivering her presidential address, Begum Qamar Zaidi read out the special message of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Hamid Moosavi to the participants of the Conference in which he declared Khanwada-e-Muhammad (SAAW) and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) the best amongst the Khanwadas all over the world and said one of the four greatest women who enjoy supremacy in women at large, is Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) on the honour of which a Quranic Ayah “we made you rich when found you poor” also stands witness.

Hazrat Khadija (S.A.) was the most honourable and richest woman amongst her nation and she presented all her wealth to the Rasool (SAAW) when her Nikah was solemnized with the Khatmi Martabat (SAAW). How great this respectable woman is, could be gauged from the fact that she preferred to spend miserable life in Sheb-e-Abi Talib after giving up all her wealth but did not give up patience and remained busy in praise of Allah. She got free from the Sheb-e-Abi Talib in the 10th year of Be’asat and the same year Nasir-e-Rasool Momin-e-Quresh Hazrat Abu Talib (A.S.) and Mohsina-e-Islam Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) passed away. The Holy Prophet (SAAW) was shocked at this double loss and declared the year as Aam-ul-Huzn (the year of mourning). The grave of this great human personality is situated at historic graveyard of Jannatul Mualla.

Begum Qamar Zaidi said those who sacrifice their life for independence movements are the sons of those mothers who have made the seerat and character of Khatoon-e-Awwal of Islam Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) as a beacon of light because Hazrat Khadija (S.A.) was first to taught them how to present sacrifice of the self and the wealth to strengthen the basis of Islam.

Expressing her sympathies with the oppressed the world over on the occasion of Universal Ayyam-ul-Huzn, she reiterated her resolve to continue their practical struggle to root out oppression and brutality, and promote justice and fair-play and said they could sacrifice everything but would not allow anyone to cause harm to the mission of ‘Wila’ and ‘Aza’ and would neither bargain on our beliefs and rights nor would allow anyone else to do that.

Syeda Umme Nasam Bokhari in her address declared the pious seerat of Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) the best example to be followed by women at large in every era. She said the Mukhtar Students Organisation (Taalbat Wing) was continuing their organizational journey to apprise the new generation about the teachings of great women of Islam with sincerity of purpose. Inviting the Kaneezan-e-Khadija to join the MSO, she reiterated her resolve to continue their struggle in achieving the pious goals with sincerity of purpose.

Khateeba Syeda Samana Naqvi paying her tributes to Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) said that Hazrat Khadija (S.A.) gave a universal charter of women rights to women at large to spend their life with honour.

Miss Kanza Rafaqat recited from the Holy Quran while Mrs. Rafaqat and Prof. Maria Jahangir presented Na’at. Miss Mahwish and her colleagues performed Qaseeda-e-Khwani.
