RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: Exercising patience and firmness is absolutely necessary to keep the flag of Islam fluttering high and to save the motherland Pakistan from the heinous Taghooti conspiracies, said the Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi in a special message issued on the occasion Ayyam-e-Tarheem (9-11 April).

He declared the world a crop of the Hereafter. World is the place to work while Hereafter is the day of judgement. Similarly, he said, faith in the Hereafter is a must while remembering the D-Day is the most difficult deed for following the righteous path and avoiding the path of ignorance. He said Khasan-e-Illahi not only kept death always in their mind rather they stressed the need to collect goods for the Hereafter.

Agha Moosavi said that from the holy books, Quran claims to be a Book the one-fourth of which talks about the Hereafter and that those who deny it would have to face heavy wrath. Death had been remembered in the holy life of Anbia, Mursaleen and their inheritors. There is a saying of the Maula-e-Kainaat Ali Ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) about those who remember, it goes: “Lucky is the person who keeps on remembering the Hereafter, he should continue increasing the goods for the Hereafter”. He said wherever A’aimma Huda (A.S.) went through Ayaat-e-Rehmat and Ayaat-e-Azaab while reciting from Holy Quran, they used to undergo such a situation as they are feeling themselves in the Hereafter.

The TNFJ chief said Syed-us-Sajideen (A.S.) who taught the method of Dua and who enlightened the message of Tauheed, Risalat and Wilayat whose holy life is beacon of light for the worshippers, undertook more than two dozens of journeys from Madinah to Makkah on the camel but no one could find any incident in which he would have used a stick or even waved the one on any camel. When asked why it is so, he replied: “I would have done so had I not any fear of the D-Day”. It indicates that we should see to our character: on one side even using a stick against camel is being avoided while we are not ready to forgive anyone, on the other.

Agha Moosavi said that blood of the innocent is being shed in Kashmir, Palestine, Afghanistan and Iraq while uncountable people are being murdered in the motherland but we are not afraid of any one. He said keep in mind that everyone would have to kiss the taste of death and they will be sent back to Him. Therefore, no one should think that everything would finish with the death rather it would expand further and then one has to confront different questions and issues in life and everyone would reap what he had sowed.

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Moosavi said that there is a saying of the Maula-e-Kainat Ali Ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) in the Nehjul Balagha that says that I advice you on five things, these are: “None of you may expect anything from anybody but Allah and do not fear from anything but his sin. If anyone of you is asked such question about which he knows nothing then he should not be shy in telling that I don’t know, and if he does not know then he should not shy in learning the same. Adopt patience and firmness because patience and Iman has the similar link that is enjoyed by the head with its body and if there is no head then the whole body is useless. Similarly if there is no firmness with patience then the patience is useless. If we have to better our lives and have to condemn the accusations against the Islamic World, then we would have to exercise patience and firmness as in it lay our success.
