RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: Syed Shujaat Ali Bokhari, Additional Secretary General of Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya has said that practical following of the uswah-e-Hussaini was the need of the hour to get the oppressed world rid of oppression and brutality.

He stated this while addressing a special “Hussain Day” gathering organised at Zainul Abideen (A.S.) Academy under the auspices of Majlis Farogh-e-Hussainiyyat. He said Muharram is commensurate with Gham-e-Hussain that is an eternal protest of the oppressed against oppression and brutality and that protest would continue till restoration of righteousness and rooting out of evil.

Bokhari said, through the exemplary display of Sunni-Shia unity and brotherhood during Muharram throughout the country, the recognised schools of thought have proved that Gham-e-Hussain is the combined asset of all and Imam Aali Muqam (A.S.) does not belong to any particular fiqh rather he is the leader of all conscientious human beings.

He expressed the hope that all Azadaran would follow the Code of Azadari announced by Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi by practically displaying brotherhood and understanding in paying condolences and pursadari in Bargah-e-Risalat and Imamat and would not allow any evil-minded to pollute the atmosphere of national unity, brotherhood and mutual understanding.

Syed Qamar Haider Zaidi, Central Secretary Information, in his address on the occasion said, the sacrifice presented by Hussain ibne Ali (A.S.) was for the survival of Deen-e-Muhammadi and protection of highest values of humanity. That is why, he added, the followers of every religion and Millat keep devotion and love for Imam Mazloom-e-Karbala (A.S.).

He said as per saying of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Syed Hamid Moosavi no tragedy is bigger than Karbala, and no protest is bigger than Azadari. Therefore, those who prefer worldly protest and political activities during Ayyam-e-Aza (mourning days) are unaware of the spirit of Islam.

He said Hazrat Shabbir (A.S.) is that greatest leader of politics who by making the Ashoor a constitution in a single day preached the oppressed world that lesson of not compromising with the world of oppressors and by laying his life in prostration in front of Allah for the supremacy of Godly principles that is being followed by the freedom fighters of Karbala-e-Kashmir and Palestine against the Yazidan-e-Asr. He assured the gathering that the day would definitely dawn when all freedom movements would become victorious, the oppressed would get relief and the evil would be rooted out.

A resolution adopted on the occasion strongly demanded from the government to control the elements doing politics in the garb of religion and implement the Anti-Terrorism Ordinance for rooting out terrorism. The gathering reiterated their resolve to present any sacrifice for the mission of ‘Wila’ and ‘Aza’.

Haider Syed, Chairman Majlis Farogh-e-Hussainiyyat in his vote of thanks said, Hussain (A.S.) belongs to all, therefore, all schools of thought are united on the topic of Azadari and the practical display of exemplary unity during Muharramul Haram is a prove of it and it would be kept in practice throughout the year.
