RAWALPINDI, May 23: The Quaid e Millat e Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that it is necessary to attach with the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH & HHP) and his Holy Progeny (PBUT) with courage so as to get rid of oppression, suppression and brutality of international evils and the colonial powers. This was stated by him while addressing to a special function organised to mark the beginning of International Ashra Ajr-e-Risalat and on the festive occasion of the birth anniversary of Hazrat Imam Muhammad Baqar (PBUH) which was observed throughout the country on Wednesday with religious fervour and devotion.

Agha Moosavi said today the world of humanity is confronted with utmost dangers, developing nations and the Muslim states are faced with one problem or the other, international Satanism is spread all around for the reason that we are not sincere in honouring the rights of one another. He said that had the Palestine issue in the Middle East and the Kashmir issue in the South Asia been resolved in line with the United Nations Resolutions and according to the desires of their respective people then the international colonial powers and their agents would not have the courage to interfere in Iraq, Afghanistan and other states. He said all Muslim states are confronted with internal anarchy and strife, satanic forces desire to use our rulers and politicians for their own interest, Pakistan that is playing the role of the front-line ally is being punished in the front line; drone attacks, bomb blasts, suicide attacks and target killings are still going on despite approval of resolutions by the Parliament, stoppage of the NATO supply route, Abbottabad operation and attack on Salalah check-post; the situation remains unchanged despite holding of recent NATO conference in Chicago.

The TNFJ chief said that the pressure from the international atheists would continue until the rulers fulfil their duties in line with the constitution and rights of the people are delivered while following the norms of justice and fair-play. Terming the incidents of murder and arson and continued target killings in Karachi, a heinous game, he termed it the act of enemies of religion and the country and failure of the government.

Aqae Moosavi made it clear that Allah Says: “Certainly did Allah confer [great] favour upon the believers when He sent among them a Messenger from themselves, reciting to them His verses and purifying them and teaching them the Book and wisdom, although they had been before in manifest error.” (Surah Aal-e-Imran, Ayah 164).

Agha Moosavi said that there is a saying of Hazrat Imam Baqar (PBUH) that, "according to faith, those are the faithfuls who are best in their moral". A man came to the Holy Prophet (PBUH & HHP) and asked what the religion is? He replied, "good behaviour". He came to his right side and questioned again that what the religion is? He replied, "good moral". He came to his left side and asked again that what the religion is? He looked towards him and asked, "do you not understand? The religion is that you do not become enraged" i.e. the good behaviour should be adopted. That is why the Holy Prophet (PBUH & HHP) and his his Holy Progeny (PBUT) all are laced with good moral values and for the same reason Almighty Allah declared love and devotion with the family of the Holy Prophet (PBUT) as Ajr-e-Risalat; therefore Allah says in the Holy Quran, "Say, [O Muhammad PBUH & HHP], I do not ask you for this message any payment [but] only good will through kinship." Sora e Shora 42:23

The TNFJ chief said that Hazrat Imam Mohammad Baqar (PBUH) was born on Rajab 1, 58 Hijra. His name is Muhammad Bin Ali, is called Abu Jafar and his famous title is Baqar because the Holy Prophet (PBUH & HHP) had sent his Salam to him through renowned companion Hazrat Jabir Bin Abdullah Ansari using that title. He was born in Madinah Munawwarah, his father was Hazrat Imam Zainul Abideen (PBUH), mother Hazrat Fatima Binte Hassan Bin Ali (PBUH) who was a great woman of her time and about whom there is a saying of Hazrat Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (PBUH) that my grandmother Fatima Binte Hassan (PBUH) was Siddiqa and no woman reached her status from amongst the family of Imam Hassan (PBUH). Imam Muhammad Baqar (PBUH) was Najib-ut-Tarafain from his father and mother.

Allama Hajr Asqalani writes about him that Imam Muhammad Baqar (PBUH) made the knowledge of Ma’arif clear and stated so many knowledgeable facts that no one can deny them except one who is blind in vision and keeps dark heart. On the basis of his knowledge he earned the title of Baqar Al-Uloom. Agha Moosavi said Hazrat Imam Baqar (PBUH) used to earn knowledge from Kitaab-e-Illahi as Ilhaam and seek help from Quranic Ayahs in his sayings and presented the same as his arguments. That is why he used to say that when I state something, everybody present there should ask questions that where this and that has been stated in the Holy Quran? So that I can satisfy your hearts through the Holy Quran. He said there are some golden sayings of Imam Muhammad Baqar (PBUH): There are three things in the human life that are the best — cooperating with the Muslim brethren in financial matters; keeping the norms of justice and fair-play intact in words, deeds and decisions; and keep remembering God all the time. At another place, he said that keep patience in difficulties, do not put hand on the rights of others and do good with others.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said that through practical following of the pious character of Imam Muhammad Baqar (PBUH), the world could be pull out of problems and could be turned into a hub of peace.
