The pious character of Imam Musa Kazim (pbuh) must be followed in order to get the world of humanity rid of colonial oppression – Hamid Moosavi

Self-determined people do not consider them humans who use cunning tactics against the mankind; Imam Musa bin Jaffar (pbuh) unveiled the falsehood through his trustworthy commitment – Quaid e Millat e Jafariya announces to observe Alamgeer Ayyam e Babul Hawaej from 23 – 25^th Rajab 

RAWALPINDI, June 23: The Quaid e Millat e Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that there is need to follow the pious character of Imam Musa Kazim (pbuh) that is the victory of righteousness over evil and the way to enlighten the dignity of Monotheism and Prophethood, so as to get the world of humanity rid of colonial oppression. This was stated by him while announcing to observe Universal Ayyam Babul Hawaij from Rajab 23-25 in connection with the martyrdom anniversary of Hazrat Musa Bin Jafar al Kazim. He said that Imam Musa Kazim (pbuh) likewise his forefathers kept the candle of guidance lightened with utmost responsibility and never kept silence in demanding justice from the oppressors on behalf of oppressed and the have-nots while his life is replete with supporting the oppressed and have-nots and seeking justice and protection for them and laid his life down for these pious objectives and demands, he added.

Agha Moosavi said the gait and utterances of the Imam (pbuh) were like that of his forefathers. He told the tyrant rulers and dictators of his era that their bodies could be put behind bars but their hearts could not be restricted and like his forefathers rejected every policy of oppression and brutality, confronted them but did not bow down before them. Similarly, he said, Musa Bin Jafar (pbuh) remained on the righteous path of protecting the sanctity of Monotheism, Prophethood and Wilayat. He preferred to bear the brunt of gaol and ultimately rendered his life but did not bargain on the principles of the religion and Sharia. Captive of Baghdad Imam Musa Kazim (pbuh) displayed firmness till he laid down his life. His revolutionary steps enlightened the names of the inheritor of the Holy Prophet and the lineage of Ali O Batool (pbut). The centuries have passed but his followers desirous of independence, freedom and justice; still express their hatred against the oppressors and do not consider them humans who use new tactics against the mankind. The colonial powers and their agents could not even think that those who lay down their lives in the way of Allah never hesitate to offer any sacrifice in achieving their religious goals, he added.

The TNFJ chief said that even today, the world of humanity, the scholars of religion and Sharia in particular, are confronted with one form of oppression or the other, life of the people of Palestine and Kashmir is being made difficult, war has been imposed on some States, while Pakistan in particular is being confronted with incidents of murder, arson, suicide attacks, bomb blasts, target killings, Drone attacks and what not. Through this oppression and brutality, the chief of the colonial powers feels that they can bow us down but they should know that like Imam Musa Bin Jafar (pbuh) could not be deterred from speaking truth by the tyrant rulers and dictators of his era, similarly the followers of Imam Musa Kazim (pbuh) and the Farzandan e Tauheed and Risalat could not diverted from the right path or bowed down because Allah Has promised that Islam will reign supreme and atheism has to come down.

Agha Moosavi said one of the great personalities from amongst the inheritors of the Holy Prophet (pbuh & hhp) is Hazrat Imam Musa Kazim (pbuh). The name of his father is Hazrat Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (pbuh) and that of mother Hazrat Hameedah Barbariya. His own name is Musa, Kuniyyat Abul Hassan, and renowned title Kazim and Babul Hawaij. Universal Ayyam Babul Hawaij are being observed from Rajab-ul-Murajjab 23-25 in connection with his anniversary of martyrdom with devotion and respect. The day of Banu Umayyad were numbered that this seventh bright star of the Imamat came in this world. His Wiladaat Purnoor enlightened the heart of the world of knowledge and wisdom. He was born at Abwa that is also the last place of rest for the mother of the Holy Prophet (pbuh). He spent his time under the guidance of his father and the blessings of her mother and remained under the supervision of his father for 20 years. He used to watch that a multitude of Ulema and students from all over the world used to visit Hazrat Imam Jafar e Sadiq (pbuh) and quenched their thirst for knowledge and Imam Sadiq (pbuh) not only satisfied their needs but also showered them with the Uloom e Illahiya. Imam Musa Al Kazim prepared himself to fulfil his duties in the same order.

Agha Moosavi said the personality of any person could rightly be judged through his thinking, ideas, wisdom and intelligentsia. Therefore a saying of an intelligent person is that the human being is commensurate with thoughts and opinions and not with his appearance and body-parts. The life span of Hazrat Imam Musa Kazim (pbuh) was replete with all types of oppression and brutalities that he confronted with courage and bravery. His life-style unveiled the oppression, brutality, lie and evil of the rulers of his era. He remained firm against whatever difficulties and hardships were imposed on him. His personality as a true leader is asset of life for truth seekers and world of justice. He took over the supervision of the University of Hazrat Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (pbuh) situated in Madina Munawwara and kept himself busy in protecting and propagating the thoughts of Sadiq Aal e Muhammad (pbuh) and advancement in rulings. He said that thousands of Ulema and narrators of traditions went through training in this hub of knowledge and enlightenment. Imam quenched their thirst for knowledge and wisdom and enriched school of thought of Ahle Bait Athaar (pbuh) with new angles of thinking that is a beacon of light for the world of Ijtehaad.

The Quaid e Millat e Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said that Hazrat Imam Musa Bin Jafar (pbuh) got the world of humanity rid of humiliation. He said by following in his footsteps, we also condemn all types of oppression and brutality and we support the oppressed wherever they are. He said that on the occasion of Ayyam Babul Hawaij, we present our condolences to the Holy Prophet (pbuh & hhp) and the supporters of the religion and Sharia and announce our commitment to continue our struggle for getting rid of the oppressors and support the oppressed till the reappearance of Hazrat Hojjat Ajjil Allah Farajah (pbuh). 

Meanwhile, a TNFJ committee has been formed to organise programmes for Alamgeer Ayyam e Babul Hawaej. Dr S M Rizvi was nominated as convener while Bin Musa Kazmi as secretary of the committee
