ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: The Jashan-e-Wiladat Purnoor of Hazrat Hojjat Ibne Al-Hassan Al-Askari (A.S.) was observed as “Universal Youm-e-Adl” (Justice Day) throughout the country with religious fervour, spirit, devotion and respect on Friday on the call of Quaid-i-Millat-i- Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi.

The day began with Aamal and collective Duas of Shab-e-Barat and Neema-e-Sha’aban before Fajr. Later, Mahafil-e-Milad, conferences, seminars and festive functions were held in mosques, Imambargahs and open places while the devotees put their applications (areeza-jaat) in rivers, canals and dams. Special festive programmes were organized in all small and big cities, towns and villages without any discrimination.

The central programme of the Jashan was organized at Rawal Dam in Islamabad where a Camp was set up by the Ayyam-e-Adl Committee of the Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya District Islamabad, M.O. and MSO to welcome the devotees.

The Central Spokesman of the TNFJ, Allama Syed Qamar Haider Zaidi in his address on the occasion said the practical following of the pious principles of Muhammad (SAAW) and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) is the only way for the Islamic World to get rid of all problems and difficulties.

Allama Nasir Abbas, Allama Imami also addressed the gathering while Zakir Syed Qamar Raza Naqvi, Zakir Sibtain Maratib and others presented Qaseedah Khwani.

A resolution unanimously adopted on the occasion thanked the media for giving coverage to the Universal Ayyam-e-Adl while lamented the policy of those electronic and print media that ignored the coverage of these programmes.

The resolution said that all Muslims agree on the philosophy of waiting for Mehdi (A.S.) so much so that even non-Muslim are awaiting a Messiah who would root out riot, unrest and all types of conflict from this world and would fill it with justice and fair-play.

Later a cake was cut which was brought there by the M.O. Karachi Company Unit.
