RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that Dukhtar-e-Rasool Hazrat Syeda Fatima Zahra (S.A.) is the symbol of Azmat-e-Niswan (greatness of women) and is great defender of high religious values. Oppression, brutality and terrorism could be rooted out from society by following her pious seerat, he added.

He was addressing a gathering held in connection with “Ayyam-e-Azmat-e-Niswan” which is being observed from June 21-25 in connection with the Wiladat-e-Purnoor of Hazrat Fatima Zahra (S.A.). He said observing the days of Mashaheer-e-Islam, actually commensurate with putting the world of humanity on the path of development and creating the spirit of following in the footsteps of holy personalities. Surah Inam says: “These are the people who are guided with the fear of Allah, therefore follow their guidelines”.

Agha Moosavi said one of the great personalities of the Mashaheer-e-Islam i.e. Hazrat Fatima Zahra (S.A.) stepped into this world in an era when her father (SAAW) was surrounded by the atheist from all around and the Holy Prophet (SAAW) was passing through the most difficult time of his life. Batool (S.A.) was aware of the woes of have-nots of the Sheb-e-Abi Talib and their children. She began her life along with them and remained busy in a struggle for achievement of their rights.

He said Syeda Fatima Zahra (S.A.) was brought up by Paighambar-e-Islam (SAAW) and in the pious lap of Ummul Momineen Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.) and won the title of Khatoon-e-Jannat. The respect the Paighambar-e-Islam (SAAW) gave to Hazrat Fatima (S.A.) is actually the respect for woman.

He appealed all schools of thought to highlight the value and respect Islam gives to woman.

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Moosavi expressed his concern that at present the whole oppressed world in general, and Pakistan in particular, is the target of International colonial powers who are busy hatching conspiracies day in and day out to achieve her nefarious designs.

Condemning the attack on the caravan of security forces in Parachinar the other day and the heavy loss of life in a firing incident at the Line of Control, he expressed heartfelt sympathies with the bereaved families. He called upon the powers that be and the politicians to give up political tug-of-war and try to save the country because Afghan President Karzai has hurled threats of sending his troops into Pakistan.

He demanded from the government to exercise the Anti-Terrorist law forthwith because restoring peace the foremost responsibility of the government but anti-Pakistan forces are busy in sabotaging peace and are desirous of thwarting efforts of mutual understanding being followed by the Sarhad government.

Agha Moosavi expressed his concern that some private channels of the electronic media were trying to strengthen international colonial powers by committing humiliation of Mashaheer-e-Islam but Senate or the National Assembly could not bring any resolution condemning such acts which is tragic. Even no newspapers had the courage to write editorial on this sensitive issue. He said in the present circumstances launching of civil disobedience movement of gherao of judges would be harmful for the country and beneficial for the combined enemy.
