Shahzada Ali Akbar’s willingness to sacrifice is the best example of the stand against oppression – Hamid Moosavi

Pakistan is being punished for being the citadel of Islam; Path of Hussainiat must be followed – Address to the mehfil e Moazzan e Hussainiat

RAWALPINDI, July 15: The Quaid e Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that the spear head in the chest of Bani Hashim youths’ hero Shahzada Ali Akbar is the best lesson to learn for youngsters who love independence and freedom and to pitch oneself against oppression. This was stated by him in his special address at the headquarters of the Maqtab e Tasheyyo on the occasion of Youm Moazzan e Hussainiyat observed in connection with the Jashan e Waladat of Hazrat Ali (pbuh). He said international colonial powers and their agents were afraid of that spirit of sacrifice and thus are punishing the whole mankind and Muslim Ummah in general, and to Pakistan being the citadel of Islam in particular. He said it is necessary to follow the path of Hussain (pbuh) so as to achieve independence for Kashmir, annexation of Palestine and Al-Quds Al-Sharif, saving Islam, protecting humanity and motherland from colonial aggression, suicide attacks, target killings, Drone attacks, and terrorism because the path of Karbala actually is the path of justice and fair-play.

Agha Moosavi made it clear that the Karbala war was for the supremacy of justice and fair-play, and protection of Shariat-e-Muhammadi, Afkaar-e-Alvi, and human honour. He said 72 sincere Hussaini supporters were pitched against thousands of enemies and mothers of nine of these Hussaini men were present in Karbala who sacrificed their sons for Islam. He said Hassan (pbuh) and Hussain (pbuh) are those holy personalities who, according to Ayah-e-Mobahila, are Farzandan-e-Rasool about whom there is a saying of the Khatmi Martabat (pbuh & hhp) that Hassan (pbuh) and Hussain (pbuh) are Imam, it is their prerogative whether to stay or to negotiate. He said Imam Hassan Mujtaba (pbuh) followed his grandfather to deal peace for saving Islam that proved to be the preface of Karbala where Hussain Ibne Ali (pbuh) stayed against the evil to restore truth and this great sacrifice is termed ‘Zibh-e-Azeem’.

The TNFJ chief said the name of one of the sons of Imam Aali Muqam Hussain Ibne Ali (pbuh) is Ali (pbuh) who is known as Akbar. Someone asked the Nawasa-e-Rasool (pbuh) that why names of your all sons are Ali. He replied if I had a hundred sons even then he would have named all of them Ali. Hazrat Ali Akbar (pbuh) was born on Sha’aban 11, Hijra 33. The name of his mother was Umme Laila Binte Abu Marah Bin Masood Taqafi. Ali Akbar (pbuh) resembled with Rasool-e-Akram (pbuh & hhp) from top to bottom. Those who wrote details of Karbala war say, the sepoys of Yazid’s army used to avoid coming before him. They were impressed by his bravery as well as being the Shabih-e-Rasool. Shaikh Jafar Ibne Numa writes that when Hazrat Ali Akbar (pbuh) came to the battlefield, it was the test of Hussain Ibne Ali’s (pbuh) patience. He said Ali’ (pbuh) grandson took a bird’s eye-view on the enemies, fought bravely and ultimately handed over himself for Shahadat for the sake of religion and Shariat. The Imam Aali Muqam (pbuh) once informed Ali Akbar (pbuh) about the Shahadat of his companions. He replied, we have no concern about death if it comes while following the right path and for the sake of justice and fair-play.

Agha Moosavi said Shahzada Ali Akbar (pbuh) resembled Rasool-e-Khuda (pbuh & hhp) in moral, habits, appearance and seerat. Hazrat Imam Hussain (pbuh) says that when they had any desire to see Nana Muhammad (pbuh & hhp), they used to see Ali Akbar’s face. Khwarzmi states that when Ali Akbar (pbuh) reached 18, and sought permission to go for jehad in Karbala, the Imam Aali Muqam (pbuh) saw him lovingly from top to bottom, raised his head upwards and said, Oh, Allah! Be witness on this nation that now that jawan is being sent to the Maqtal who, amongst all human beings, resembles with Your Rasool (pbuh & hhp) in appearance, seerat, moral and speech. Whenever we desired to see Your Rasool (pbuh & hhp), we used to see his (younger) face.

The Quaid e Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said the youngsters of the nation would have to inculcate the spirit of Ali Akbar (pbuh) in their hearts so as to thwart the designs of Yazidi colonial powers in this era.
