RAWALPINDI, September 21: The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has announced to observe Ayyam Azmat-e-Rasool Azam (SAAW) from 21-23 September to highlight the universal protest against the humiliating American film-gardi. In a statement issued here from the headquarters of the Maktab-e-Tashih he said every day is Ashoora and every land is Karbala. He said had the Muslim Ummah followed the sayings of the Nabi (SAAW) and did not trample the honour of the Ahle Bait Athaar (A.S.) and Mukhaderaat-e-Ismat and Taharat (A.S.) by taking them to the streets of Kufa and Shaam and in the courts of Yazid and Ibne Ziad without ‘chaddar’ after the Rasool (SAAW) and did not commit the desecration of the shrines of Hazoor’s (SAAW) elders, Aal-e-Athaar (A.S.), pious Azwaaj, and pious Sahaba Kubaar and other holy shrines in Jannatul Baqee and Jannatul Moallah in the previous century, then the atheist world would have the courage to commit insult of Quran Majeed, Bait Allah, Sha’air Allah, Mashaheer-e-Islam and making blasphemous images and the movie.

Agha Moosavi said that the atheist world has always considered the Islamic World and the Mashaheer of religion and Shariat a hurdle in their way. What it had desired to do, it is getting it done through creating OIC and Arab League within the Muslim ranks that is why these organisations were playing the role of silent spectators contrary to the fact that the whole Muslim Ummah has become the symbol of protest against the desecrating American movie and through Muslim rulers, the Muslim Ummah is being told that they should not cause any harm to the American interests while different channels were opposing the protest launched throughout the Islamic World on the blasphemous act.

The TNFJ chief asked that why Palestinian and Kashmiri oppressed has no right to stage protest against the Zionist and Hindu oppression? Is there no protest held in the western world? He said the anchors who are unaware of the religious necessities and do not know anything about Quran and Sunnah are playing the role of Muftis. He said Allah has permitted the oppressed to stage protest against oppression in the first Ayah of the sixth parah of Holy Quran the Tafseer of which in favour of protest is there in many Ahadees-e-Mubarkah. He said they are giving arguments on protest without knowing the meanings of protest. They should be aware that meaning of protest is to give argument and proof against oppression and excess committed against them and raising voice against it that is not made silently in the heart but openly using the body organs. That is why the oppressed people take themselves to streets and bazaars for protest. He said protest does not mean jalao-gherao, violence and damaging property because Islam considers giving pain to someone as illegal. He said the most effective and eternal protest against oppression and brutality is Azadari which is peaceful and thus is the key to its survival and provides a lesson to the oppressed world even today.

Agha Moosavi called upon the OIC, Arab League and Motamar-e-Islami to file case of blasphemous American movie in the ICC, the United Nations should summon emergent session and those who committed blasphemy should be booked in Muslim States and given exemplary punishments. He said when Pakistani daughter Aafia Siddiqui could be tried and other Pakistanis including Ramzi Yousuf and Aimal Kasi could be taken away from Pakistan and sent to the gallows then why those who commit blasphemy against the Rasool-e-Azam (SAAW) could not be booked and punished?

Meanwhile, a Central Committee of the TNFJ has been formed to organise Ayyam Azmat-e-Rasool Azam programmes. Dr. S.M. Rizvi has been nominated as Convener and Malik Ali Furqani as Secretary of this committee.
