RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that the role of Hazrat Sakina Bint-ul-Hussain (S.A.) is an asset of pride for the children world, as she kissed martyrdom in Zindaan-e-Shaam for the supremacy and defence of her father Imam Hussain (A.S.)’s targets.

He stated this while announcing to observe “Ashra-e-Shaheeda-e-Zindaan” from 27th Muharram to 6th Safar.

In a message issued from the headquarters of the Maktab-e-Tashayyo, he said the desire for freedom in children of Palestine, Kashmir, Iraq and Afghanistan is courtesy the great role of Sakina Bint-ul-Hussain (S.A.) and, no doubt, they can get rid of the colonial world by adopting her seerat.

Agha Moosavi appealed the Islamian-e-Pakistan to express solidarity with the oppressed world, condemn terrorism going on in the motherland by participating in the programmes of Ashra-e-Shaheeda-e-Zindaan and make it clear on the world that martyrs of Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Hangu, Peshawar and Dera Ismail Khan (in which Jawwad Hussain Jawwad kissed martyrdom) were placed at the pedestal of martyrdom following the pious targets for which our struggle would continue and no one will be allowed to cause any harm to the motherland Pakistan and the basic ideology - Islam.

The TNFJ chief said that there is a saying of holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAAW) that “Hussain (A.S.) is from me and me from Hussain (A.S.), Allah loves those who love Hussain (A.S.)”. But, he said those who are loved by Hussain (A.S.) are placed on a high pedestal.

He said the status of Hazrat Rubab (S.A.) and Hazrat Sakina (S.A.) could be gauged from a saying of the Nawasa-e-Rasool Imam Hussain (A.S.) that goes: “I like that home in which there are Rubab (S.A.) and Sakina (S.A.)”. He said the elder women and girl children of the Khanwada-e-Muhammad (SAAW) and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) have no difference in the attitudes and deeds, that is why Mukhaderaat-e-Ismat and Taharat kept all principles of the Paighambar-e-Islam (SAAW) and their forefathers in view and taking guidance from the Shahadat-e-Hussain delivered unmatched heart-rending addresses in the streets of Kufa and Shaam and in the courts of Ibne Ziad and Yazid that shattered the castles of tyranny and Yazdiyyat.

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Hamid Moosavi said that there is a saying of Paighambar-e-Islam (SAAW) that goes: “Kareem gives respect to women, and Laeem insults them”. The history stands witness that Mukhaderaat-e-Ismat and Taharat were forced to march in streets on unseated camels without chaddar after the martyrdom of Hussain and were taken to Shaam after a prolonged journey. This insult to them indicates that the insult Yazid committed against Ahle Bait (A.S.) is unforgivable.

He said Azadari is supreme than any other thing and is our constitutional, religious and moral responsibility and we present condolences in Bargah-e-Risalat and Imamat on the tragic occasion of Ashra-e-Shaheeda-e-Zindaan. On this occasion, he said, we announce our commitment that Azadari, that is universal protest against oppression and brutality, would continue till the Zahoor-e-Mehdi (A.S.).

Meanwhile, the Central Ashra-e-Shaheeda-e-Zindaan Committee of the TNFJ has been formed to formulate programmes for this Ashra. Mohtarma Lewaa Zaynab has been nominated Convener and Mohtarma Abeer Haider as Secretary of this Committee.
