RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that Binte Rasool Khatoon-e-Jannat Hazrat Syeda Fatima tuz Zahra (S.A.) is a great woman whose pious Uswah is the complete example to follow by women at large.

He stated this while announcing to observe “Universal Ashra-e-Aza-e-Fatmiya” from May 31 to June 9.

He said the whole humanity remains indebted to the blessings of great personalities who perform knowledgeable, religious, and economic and social services for the mankind in every era. The Khanwada-e-Risalat is placed at the highest pedestal of height the love and devotion of which has been declared at Ajr-e-Risalat.

He said the Ayah-e-Tataheer stands witness to the Ismat and Taharat of this Khanwada. He said Allah had introduced the Ahle Bait (A.S.) to the Malaikah: She is Fatima and her Baba (Muhammad), he is her husband (Ali) and they are their sons (Hassan and Hussain). He said Syeda Tahira (S.A.) is an exemplary woman who is an example for the whole world in her capacity as a daughter, wife and mother.

Agha Moosavi said woman had been considered vulnerable before Islam that is why she had no value or respect but the ignorant Arabs used to bury her alive. The atheists of that era had enmity with the Paighambar-e-Akram (SAAW) had used to consider the Holy Prophet (SAAW) low in status for not having any male child while no one knew that heroes of humanity would prosper in the lap of Fatima (S.A.) who will be called Hassan (A.S.), Hussain (A.S.), Zainab (S.A.) and Kulsoom (S.A.) and would proof themselves as beacon of light for the whole world of humanity. He said Khanwada-e-Muhammad (SAAW) and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) are the source of all movements of independence that revolve around Hazrat Fatima tuz Zahra (S.A.).

The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Moosavi appealed all schools of thought highlight the respect, honour and dignity of woman in Majalis and Matmi processions to be organised in connection with the Universal Ashra-e-Aza-e-Fatmiya and express support to the oppressed world and hatred against oppression and brutality by presenting ‘Pursa’ in the Bargah-e-Khatmi Martabat (SAAW) and Khanwada-e-Asmat (A.S.).

Meanwhile, TNFJ Central Committee has been formed to organise programmes of the Universal Ashra-e-Aza-e-Fatmiya. Malik-e-Ashtar has been nominated as Convener while Haider Abbas Bajwa will be the Secretary of this Committee.
