Colonial powers were bent upon destroying the religious values and culture of the Islamic World, Islamic media is under the obligation to fulfil its responsibility in this connection – Hamid Moosavi

The main objective of imposing their culture is to agitate young generation so that they stand up against the religion; Highlighting the pious character of the heroes of Islam is the need of the hour; Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) changed the course of history; Muslim women should adopt example of Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) - Message of the Quaid on the birth anniversary of the granddaughter of the Holy Prophet, Syeda Zainab Bint e Ali (pbuh)

RAWALPINDI, July 4: The Quaid e Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said colonial powers were bent upon destroying the religious values and culture of the Islamic World and the Zionist and Hindu media was utilising all its energies to implement that conspiracy. He said nudity, shamelessness and all type of evils are being spread surreptitiously and it has become difficult to counter the same. He said highlighting the bright character of the pious personalities of Islam is the need of the hour so as to thwart the heinous colonial propaganda and the Islamic media is under the obligation to fulfil its responsibility in this connection. Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) by laying the foundation of Aza e Hussaini has initiated the destruction of oppressors and brutal forces of every era. This was stated by him in a message delivered on the occasion of Wiladat e Purnoor of granddaughter of the Holy Prophet Syeda Zainab Bint e Ali (pbuh) that is being observed throughout the country on Sha’aban 1 with devotion and respect.

Agha Moosavi said the objective of the colonial powers is to keep the new generation of the Muslim Ummah involved in indecent activities so that they stand up against the religion. In these circumstances, he added, it was obligatory for us to introduce to our children, mothers, sisters, daughters and youngsters those renowned and greatest personalities who have struggled hard for keeping the religion and Sharia intact and gave exemplary sacrifices for its supremacy so as to thwart the atheist conspiracies. Moreover, the new generation may learn a lesson from the holy and pious personalities that may help them in their day to day life. He said Islam is the holiest religion and has produced hundreds of personalities whose moral, character, and utterances are a complete beacon of light for humanity.

The TNFJ chief said that one of those personalities is Hazrat Zainab Bint e Ali Ibn e Abi Talib (pbuh) who was exemplary in her piety, knowledge, awareness, patience rather she was the beacon of light for women at large. He said more than 14 centuries have passed but no talk about sacrifice, patience, firmness, courage and bravery is complete without repeating the deeds of her life. He said that the Holy Prophet (pbuh & hhp) proposed her name as Zainab in the light of revelation that came on him through Hazrat Gabriel. The Holy Prophet (pbuh & hhp) also advised everyone in his will to  respect her because she is like Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (pbuh). In addition to a great member of the pious family of the holy Prophet, Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) also enjoyed the status of the companion of the Holy Prophet (pbuh). She was brought up under the guidance of the Holy Prophet (pbuh & hhp), with the knowledge of Mustafa (pbuh & hhp) and Murtaza (pbuh). She rather prepared herself for the great incident of Karbala in her childhood. The Tehreek e Zainabi began after the great sacrifice of Imam Hussain (pbuh) and his 72 near and dear ones in Karbala. But her caravan comprised Beemar-e-Karbala Syed Sajjad (pbuh), helpless women and minors.

The Quaid e Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said that Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) shattered the Bazars of Kufa and Shaam and the courts of Yazid and Ibn e Ziyad through her heart rending addresses and unveiled the evil faces of Yazid and his companions in public. He said that the name of Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) is the symbol of courage and firmness. He advised women folk, mothers, sisters, and daughters to adopt the Zainabi (pbuh) example and lace themselves with her qualities. He said Syeda Zainab (pbuh) by establishing Aza e Hussaini arranged the demise of oppressive and brutal forces of every era. Today the echoes of Matam and Qamah-Zani come from every nook and corner of the world, he added. He reiterated his resolve that the tradition of Syeda Zainab (pbuh) that is Azadari e Imam Mazloom (pbuh) will continue unabated till the re-appearance of Imam Mehdi (pbuh).
