ISLAMABAD, June 1: The Universal Youm-e-Inhidaam Jannatul Baaqee was observed throughout the country Sunday with religious and national spirit, devotion and respect on the call of Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi to lodge protest against destruction of holy shrines of Khatoon-e-Jannat Hazrat Syeda Fatima Zehra (S.A.), Ahle Bait Athaar (A.S.), Ummahatul Momineen Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra (S.A.), Hazrat Aisha (R.A), Hazrat Hafsa (R.A.), Sahaba Kubaar (R.A.), Hazrat Usman (R.A.), Aaimma Ahle Bait (A.S.), Sardar-e-Jannat Imam Hassan (A.S.), Imam Zainul Abideen (A.S.), Imam Baqar (A.S.), Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (A.S.) in Jannatul Baqee and Jannatul Moallah on 8 Shawal, 1926. Like all cities, towns and villages of Pakistan, protest rallies were also taken out in America, Britain, Canada, Italy, Greece, Middle East, Africa, and Australia.

            The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi addressing the mourners in this connection said, said that attack on the shrine of Omar Bin Abdul Aziz is the continuation of Inhidam Jannatul Baqeee and is an inhuman act. The terrorist ideology of destruction of holy shrines of Hazrat Fatima Zahra (S.A), Ahle Bait Athaar (A.S.), Sahaba Kubaar (R.A.) and Ummahatul Momineen (R.A.) is now spread all over the world. Muslim rulers should come out of deep slumber. He said had the Muslim Ummah took a wise step against the desecration of Jannatul Baqee and Jannatul Muallah then the satanic terrorists would not have the courage today to commit humiliation of the shrines of Mashaheer-e-Islam in any part of the world.

            The TNFJ chief said it is tragic that places of worship of the aggressors against Islam were protected as universal heritage by all symbols of Islamic heritages are being wiped out. He said everyone should keep in mind not to forget the divine warning of those who remain silent on the demolition of Jannatul Baqee and Jannatul Muallah that whoever is silent on the blasphemy of the celebrities of Islam will also deserve the same punishment which is the destiny of the oppressors. And the end of the oppressors is nothing but disgrace. He said it is tragic that The World Heritage Day is celebrated on April 18 every year, but in the same month of April, no one has spoken out against the trampling of the entire history of Muslims, because the Muslims themselves have never raised their voice for the restoration of their monuments. He said restoration of the dignity of Shajar-e-Rasool (SAAW), the place of birth of the Rasool (SAAW), places of Companions and all the memories and symbols of the Nabavi era is not the issue of any single country or a Maktab but that of the whole humanity and the Islamic World.
