RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has welcomed the announcement of Pemra Ordinance’s withdrawal and appealed President Gen. Pervez Musharraf to also withdraw reference against the Chief Justice so as to bring the country out of crisis situation.

This was stated by him while delivering his presidential address at the First Session of the special meeting of the High Command of Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya in which the current situation prevailing in the country and the future line of action were reviewed in detail.

He said this situation is crisis over crisis that could become a big crisis and to get rid of it, the Muslim Ummah would have to seek the support from the Ahle Bait’s (A.S.) ship and attach themselves with the Ahle Bait (A.S.) both practically and by the core of their heart that, according to a saying of the Rasool (SAAW) guarantees survival.

Agha Moosavi said that President Pervez Musharraf took historic steps to get the country rid of terrorism, therefore, he should also take calculated steps and keep the norms of justice and fair-play in the current situation, do not bank on Ministers and Advisers who have caused immense damage to his reputation and the country’s dignity.

He said there is a possibility that revenge is being taken from President Musharraf for the steps he had taken to get the country rid of terrorism. Therefore, he said those Ministers and Advisers should be sacked forthwith who have made the President face this situation as he would be termed responsible for any conspiracy and mischief that may have been hatched by any one else.

He called upon the President to adopt the saying of Amirul Momineen Ali Ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) that “Live in the world in a manner that people desire to meet you and shed tears on you when you go away” as it would help him resolve all problems and would lead him to success.

He said considering the satanic forces as friends is foolishness, whoever considers America as friend is optimistic, colonial powers just support their self-interest and do not take time in changing their attitude when their interest is achieved, therefore, he added, Muslims should exercise wisdom.

The TNFJ chief said there is no Shia and Sunni conflict in any part of the world and no sensible Muslim should declare it an issue also. Actually, he added, this language is being used by colonial powers and it is their own creation but we have to prove through our deeds that Shia and Sunni are two strong arms of Islam. He said to counter this colonial propaganda, it is necessary that all Muslim States should give the rights to all recognised schools of thought and Makatib on the basis of equality and in Pakistan Maktab-e-Tashayyo should be given representation in all constitutional institutions including the Council of Islamic Ideology on the basis of equality. He made it clear that only that person would be considered the representative of the Millat-i-Jafariya who will be nominated by the Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya. Otherwise, it would be a farce, he added.

Agha Moosavi said talks of introducing the system of Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Yemen or any other country in Pakistan are tantamount to causing harm to Pakistan ideology, the creation of Pakistan was not exercised keeping the model of any country in sight rather Islamic ideology was the model of this activity and millions of Muslims migrated and struggled under the leadership of Allama Iqbal and Quaid-i-Azam, sacrificed their life, wealth and honour and that way the first Islamic ideological State was created on the world map.

He said rights of all Makatib and Masalik have been guaranteed in the Islamic ideology and any system contrary to the same would be a contradiction of the principles of Baba-e-Qaum Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Hakim-ul-Ummat Allama Muhammad Iqbal.

The TNFJ chief said Pakistan was achieved in the name of Islam the foundation of which was laid on justice and fair-play, therefore, the objectives of creation of Pakistan could only be achieved by setting the State system on justice and fair-play. He said objection on State institutions, army, judiciary, Parliament, and Administration are raised only when personal and party interests are given the priority. No respectable institution is accused if supremacy of the Constitution and law is given priority rather their respect and dignity would increase further. He said all institutions should work by remaining within the Constitution and law. He made it clear that survival of Pakistan lay in remaining on the path of Islam and all work would have to be done by remaining within the Islamic limits in which respect of all Masalik and Makatib is necessary.

Agha Moosavi said that protest is the basic right of everyone but jalao-gherao and giving strike calls would benefit the enemy. We have already lost one half of the country and could not afford to bear further loss.

We have taught the ways to protest as Azadari is the biggest protest against oppression and brutality in which harm is caused to no one but to ourselves. That is why no oppressor and tyrant ruler could stay before this unmatchable peaceful protest.

Condemning the Indian voice raised to give up frontiers with Pakistan in the name of peace, he said the Akhand Bharat thinking is still there in the mind of Hindu Banya who could not digest Nazria-e-Pakistan and claims for peace are oral and to dodge others, therefore, the powers that be should remain watchful. He made it clear that peace could be restored by keeping the country’s and religion’s boundaries intact, religion could not be changed for peace nor the frontiers could be vanished as peace could only be achieved by recognising frontiers and ideologies and giving them respect.

The TNFJ chief said accusations of extremism and fundamentalism against Muslims is to defame them in which Muslims have also included themselves. Those who are promoting colonial terminologies are actually serving the interest of enemies of Islam. He said Islam desires integrity and condemns all types of biases. Supporting any relative or otherwise just on the basis of mutual relationship is oppression and brutality and bias, where there is Islam there should be no bias, where there is bias there is no Islam. A Muslim is the one from whom’s hand other Muslim remains safe and the Momin is the one from whom’s hand and tongue the whole humanity remains safe.

He said that after Muslim victory against Zionist tribe Bani Marah Bin Auf, when a herdsman paid Salam to a Muslim army, one Sahabi considering it a tactic murdered that herdsman. When this incident was reported to the Holy Prophet (SAAW), he did not like it and remained unhappy with that Sahabi for quite sometime and did not even pray for his Maghfirat. Quran Hakeem says: “Oh, the people in Iman, when travel in way of Allah, do confirm about it, and you do not say when anyone pays Salam to you that you are not a Momin”.

He said a saying of the Holy Prophet (SAAW) goes: “I am the City of Knowledge and Ali is its door”. Knowledge and awareness has been spread courtesy the holy guidance, Ma’raje Uzzam and Fuqara disseminated the Islamic message of peace and love in every nook and corner of the world keeping to existing situations.

Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya is the trustee of the inheritance of Fuqaha and Fuqara and is working on their line with full sincerity of purpose and would remain stick to it till the Zahoor of Imam Mahdi (A.S.)

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Hamid Moosavi said Hussainiyyat is religion and Shariat while religion and Shariat is Hussainiyyat and Pakistan is based on Hussainiyyat. He said no sacrifice would be spared for the protection and stability of the motherland by follow the path of Hussainiyyat.
