ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - December 15: Majalis and processions of Ashra-e-Muharramul Haram were continued throughout the country like other global parts in commemoration of blood-stained sacrifice of the grandson of holy Prophet (SAWW) Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS) and his near and dear ones on the burning desert of Karbala for elevation of Deen and Shariat.

In federal capital city of Islamabad, main procession of Replicas of Zuljinah, Alam, Mehndi Shehzada Qasim (AS) and cradle of Hazrat Ali Asghar was brought out from Markazi imambargah Jamiatul Murtaza G-9/4 under auspices of Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi attended by dozens of matmi groups besides tens of thousands of azadaran-e-Mazloom-e-Karbala.

Talking to representatives of electronic and print media during the procession, Agha Moosavi said Milad-un Nabi and Azadari guarantee peace; governments and administration must avoid harras-creating steps and measures during these days providing full opportunity to people to commemoreate grandfather Muhammad (SAWW) and grandson Hussain (AS).

Answering a question, he said government measures with the advent of Muharramul Haram show as if heaven is to burst out or the earth is to split open; ban on loud speaker and double sawari, closure of bazaars, ban on about 90 percent ulema and zakireen even on those who were died long ago are examples of the same. On the other hand, 26 outlawed terror outfits are working openly under new names.

He expressed grave concern that load-shedding has again been started as Ashura nears affecting the arrangements of majalis and processions that may be beneficial to enemies of the country, therefore bring load-shedding to a halt immediately.

The TNFJ chief condemned examination schedule during Muharramul Haram set by different universities and educational boards terming it an act to distant people from worship.

Responding to another query, Moosavi said that under Pakistan constitution, President, prime minister, governor, chief ministers are not bound to belong any particular sect but its regrettable that a congressi group, that called Quaid-i-Azam ‘Kaafir-e-Azam’ and openly opposed Pakistan Movement, has control over all religious institutions from religious ministry to Islamic Ideology Council. He urged that fulfilling demands of justice and the constitution, chairmanship of all religious institutions must be given to all schools of thought one by one.

Answering another question, he stated that Is;lam is State religion of Pakistan which gives full right even to non-Muslims to spend their life according to their own beliefs and faith. Zia ul Haq was that first person who announced to make Pakistan a State of one particular sect deviating Pakistan ideology, but Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya became an obstacle against his filthy plans. It saved the country from becoming a sectarian State seizing Secretariat and afterwards running eight-month-long peaceful agitation. He said this day forces working behind Ziai dictatorship are active again but Shia and Sunni who jointly formed this country will never let them to succeed.

The TNFJ chief strongly condemned Punjab government for not setting up Muharram Azadari Control Room that have been set up in interior ministry and other provinces that are proved to be helpful in resolving problems of azadaran by remaining in contact with TNFJ Muharram Committee Azadari Cell.

Meanwhile, performing noha-khwani and seena-zani and touching through its designated routes the mourning procession became a big gathering reaching at Muhammadi Chowk G-9/2.

Addressing the matamdaran there, Khateeb Fateh Furat Syed Qamar Haider Zaidi highlighted Hussaini objective. He said Gham-e-Hussain is not any particular sect’s inheritance; rather his Qayam was for demolition of oppression and barbarism, and survival of Divine principles and Shariat-e-Muhammadi, that is why every conscious person is thankful to Hussaain ibne Ali (AS).

The participants reiterated their resolve to fully follow the CODE OF AZADARI announced by the Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Hamid Moosavi performing Ajr e Risalat.Later, Azadaran performed zanjeer-zani paying pursa to Mazloom-e-Karbala (AS).
