SPECIAL MESSAGE OF
Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi
In connection with the Shahadat of
HAZRAT IMAM ALI RAZA (A.S.)

Allah has honoured the human being to be best of the creatures and the objective of the creation of the human being is to lace the human being with height of struggle and this objective could be achieved when he comes to touch the heights of knowledge and awareness after giving up ignorance and could make a difference between good and bad, justice and oppression and lace the whole society with peace and tranquillity.

Coming (Besat) of Ambia Karaam, Aulia, and Saleheen (A.S.) was with the reason to guide the people so as to reform the society. That is why these holy personalities remained laced with all good habits and free of all bad things so that the whole humanity could put its confidence in them. Therefore the Ayah 35 of Surah Younus says: “Does the person who guide towards righteousness is more deserving that he should be followed or the person who could not guide unless he himself is guided. Thus what happened to you, what type of command you give.”

The Shariat-e-Muhammadi of the Khatmi Martabat (SAAW) is the unmatched collection of guidance that covers all religious and worldly aspects of human life and rests on justice and fair-play and some holy places are deputed to protect it.

One of those great personalities is Imam-e-Zamin and Samin Hazrat Ali Bin Musa Ar-Reza (A.S.) who was singular in his qualities and was placed at the highest pedestal of knowledge, worship, Zuhd and Taqwa. His name was Ali (A.S.) and title Reza (A.S.). Mr. Saddooq writes with reference to Ibrahim Bin Abbas that I have never seen Imam Reza (A.S.) overcoming talk over others, he never interrupted anyone, did not spread his feet in front of others, take his meal along with his servants, after taking some rest in the night used to become busy in worship, and carry food in mid-night to deliver the same to the poor at their door-steps.

When Mamoon invited Imam Ali Reza (A.S.) to come to Khurasan, he entered Neshapur through different cities, where the residents heartily welcomed him, uncountable ulema, Muhaddiseen, intellectuals, and Fuqaha stood waiting to write down what the Imam (A.S.) says. The Masoom (A.S.) began his talk saying that Kalma-e-Tauheed is the citadel of Allah, one who entered into it, becomes safe from the wrath of God. After a few moments when the voices of Darood-o-Salam and Takbeer were raised, the Masoom (A.S.) said there are some conditions the one of the important of which is acceptance of our Wilayat.

A famous poet Da’abel Khazaee wrote a Qaseedah for Khanwada-e-Ahle Bait (A.S.) on which he was rewarded and on the basis of which his name was written in the history. The excerpts from this Qaseedah are:

“I shed my tears when I saw the deserted homes of the Rasool’s (SAAW) offspring the masters of which were driven out and other people had took over, the homes where Dars-e-Tafseer Quran was used to be held, which was the centre of Wahi. Today, there is no recitation from Holy Quran owing to the fear of the oppressor, those who lived in these homes were the inheritors of Prophet (SAAW) and amongst the best people of the whole Ummah, they always helped the poor and were considered their supporters. Their wealth is with the oppressors and their pious hands are empty of their own wealth, Darood-o-Salam on these enlightening stars on the sky of Imamat who set in Kufa, Madinah and Karbala and have laid down their life for Islam and there is a pious grave in Baghdad (Kazmain) in which these pious people are resting and that grave is the room of heaven.

Da’abel says that when I reached at this point, the Imam (A.S.) asked me to add one couplet that there is a grave in Toos city that carried trouble with it that would make the hearts of the people become sorrow and let them shed tears profusely. I asked, Maula whose grave is this? Imam replied that that grave is mine, the poor soul.

The time of his departure came and he kissed martyrdom. Before martyrdom, he told Abu Sallat to wrap up the home floor and do not allow anyone to enter because these are the last moments of my life and I want to give my life on earth like my elder Imam Hussain (A.S.).

Safar-ul-Muzaffar 17, 203 Hijra is the day of great mourning because the Masoom kissed Shahadat in a state of poverty. There is a saying of the Imam (A.S.) that one who carries out oppression against any Muslim, he is not from amongst us.

Today Muslims are the target of oppression and brutality, atheists are united and Muslims are spread, all this is the work of Satanic forces who desire to fan biases and set these countries on fire by crying hoarse of sectarianism and Maslak. The life of the oppressed Muslims in Kashmir and Palestine have been made difficult for half a century, there is war in Iraq and Afghanistan and at present noose around Syria and Iran is being tightened.

In this situation, the whole Muslim Ummah is under the obligation to condemn all types of biases, stop rhetoric of sectarianism, consider attack on any country including Iran as an attack on the whole humanity, devise a strong and joint strategy after summoning emergent OIC meeting so as to thwart the international colonial conspiracy. If this was not done then there will be no one to remember us.

Presenting condolences in Bargah-e-Khatmi Martabat (SAAW), we announce our commitment to continue expressing hatred against the oppressor and support to the oppressed to whichever region, Maslak and country they belong keeping to the saying of the Masoom (A.S.).
