Had the holy signs not been razed to ground in the garb of expansion of Bait Allah and Masjid-e-Nabavi then the satanic forces would not have had the courage to make blasphemous movie; the international organizations should play their role to restore the dignity of signs attributed to Almighty Allah, otherwise the Holy Places should be declared as open cities so that the pilgrims can visit them without any restriction; the daughter of Ali O Batool (PBUH) devastated the foundations of Yazidi courts through her eloquent and prudent sermons - Address of the Quaid e Millat e Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi to the Majlis e Sharikatul Hussain

RAWALPINDI, November 3: The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that there is a need to follow the pious character of Zainab Binte Ali (PBUH) practically so as to defeat the colonial powers. The granddaughter of the Holy Prophet, the daughter of Imam Ali O Batool (PBUH) devastated the Yazidi courts through her heart-rending sermons. Even today courageous women the world over are benefiting from these sermons in their struggle against the Yazidi forces of today and are offering their brave sons for the movements of independence and freedom while following in the footsteps of Hazrat Zainab (PBUH). He stated this while addressing the Majlis of Youm Sharikatul Hussain at the headquarters of the Maktab-e-Tasheyyo.

Aqae Moosavi reminded those present that the freedom movements of the world stand witness that for more than half a century, despite having lots of problems and restrictions the oppressed of the Palestine and Kashmir are fighting back with great courage the oppression and barbarity of India and Israel, sacrificed numerous lives and many of them are dying in captivity. The international colonial powers should remember that these brave youths are brought up by those mothers who are following the pious example of the Holy ladies of the household of the Holy Prophet (PBUT) and are proud of being the follower of these pious ladies.

Agha Moosavi said the way the respect of the Holy Prophets and the messengers of Almighty Allah (PBUT) is obligatory upon us when they are alive similarly their places of burial are also respectable for us. He expressed grave concern that the satanic forces are committing aggression against the oppressed nation of the world and same time committing blasphemy against the Prophethood. The Zionists trampled the dignity of the Al-Quds Al-Sharif, Hindus razed Babri Masjid to the ground while holy shrines are being targeted in the Muslim States. The holy places in Afghanistan, Iraq, Egypt, Tunis, and Libya are being disrespected while in Pakistan the dignity of the shrines of Bari Shah Latif, Abdullah Shah Ghazi, Sakhi Mahmood Shah and recently Darbar Kaka Sahib were trampled. In Syria, many incidents of terrorism took place near the holy shrine of Hazrat Zainab Binte Ali (PBUH).

Agha Moosavi called upon the Arab League, OIC, NGOs and the protectors of the heritage to get the dignity of Jannatul Baqee and Jannatul Moallah restored. He said had the holy signs not been razed to ground in the garb of expansion of Bait Allah and Masjid-e-Nabavi then the satanic forces would not have had the courage to make blasphemous movie and publish the insulting images. He demanded from all the international organization to play their role in restoration of the dignity of these Holy places or otherwise these places should be declared as open cities so that the pilgrims can visit them without any restrictions.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said that in the world of humanity the struggle of women alongside men always remains important; that is why, where Almighty Allah introduced humanity with his Prophets and Messengers similarly he introduced humanity with women of exemplary characteristics. Where the lives of these pious men is beacon of light for the youths of every era similarly it is important for society to introduce mothers, sisters and daughters with the great character of the pious ladies of humanity. He said Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) is the proud of women at large whose family is exemplary in honour, dignity and piety. Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) was brought up by Ali and Zehra (PBUT) and was placed on the height of supremacy and dignity. She was a special servant of Almighty Allah who used to spend her nights in worshipping Almighty Allah and for the same reason the Holy Prophet, Imam Ali and Hazrat e Zahra (PBUT) all used to honour Hazrat Zainab (PBUH). When she used to visit the grave of her grandfather her father Imam Ali and her brothers Imam Hassan and Imam Hussain (PBUT) used to accompany her and when they reached there the lamps were doused. When once Imam Hassan (PBUH) asked Imam Ali (PBUH) that why do you do that Imam Ali replied that I am afraid that any non mehram may see your sister.

Agha Moosavi said that Hazrat Ali (PBUH) used to stand up in respect of Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) and kiss her hands like the Holy Prophet (PBUH & HHP) used to do in case of Hazrat Fatima Zehra (PBUH) and for the same reason Imam Hussain (PBUH) before he left last time for Karbala handed over all the "Israr e Imamat" to Hazrat Zainab (PBUH). Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) used to talk in the tone of her father, the proof of which is her sermons which she delivered in the court of Yazid.

When tired and injured captives of Karbala reached the court of Yazid, the cursed Yazid was hitting the teeth of Imam Hussain with stick, at that time the lion hearted daughter of Imam Ali (PBUH) while delivering her sermon said, All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. Allah's blessing be upon His Messenger Muhammad and his entire progeny (PBUT). True are the words of Allah, who says, "Then the end of those who committed evil was that they disbelieved in Allah's signs and they were ridiculing them"." (Sora e Rome)

O Yazid you have utilized all your energies and all your tactics to block all the avenues of the earth and the horizons of the heavens before us, so we were driven as captives, you think that we are worthless in the eyes of Allah and that you are respectful in His eyes? Or is it because you enjoy with Him a great status? So, you look down at us and become arrogant, elated, when you see the world submissive to you and things are done as you want them, and when our authority and power became all yours?

But wait! Have you forgotten that Allah said, ""Do not regard those who disbelieved that we grant them good for themselves? We only give them a respite so that they may increase their sins, and for them there is a humiliating torment"." (Sora e Aale Imran)

Is it fair, O son of the freed slave that you keep your ladies and bond maidens in their chambers (under protection), and at the same time you drive the daughters of the Messenger of Allah (PBUT) as captives with their veils removed and faces exposed, taken by their enemies from one land to another, being viewed by those at watering places as well as those who manned your forts, with their faces exposed to the looks of everyone near or distant, lowly or honourable, having none of their men with them nor any of their protectors apart from Ali Zain ul Abideen and Mohammad Baqir (PBUT)?

But what can be expected from one descended from those whose mouths chewed the liver of the purified ones and whose flesh grows out of the blood of the martyrs? O Yazid you are proud of on your oppression and are hitting the lips of Abu Abdillah (PBUH), the Master of the Youths of Paradise with your stick who is the progeny of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and a bright star whose heart is pierced and eyes are tearful. You while remembering your forefathers are calling them as if they can hear you and are happy on your atrocities. Soon shall you be lodged with them, and soon shall you wish you were paralyzed and muted and never said what you said nor what you did.

Afterwards while continuing her sermon the courageous granddaughter of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) said, You carried out your plots, and intensified your efforts but, by Allah, you shall never be able to obliterate our mention, nor will you ever be able to kill the revelation (that was revealed to us), nor will you ever exalt our position, nor will your shame ever be washed away. Your view shall be proven futile, your days limited in number, and your wealth wasted on the Day when the caller calls out, "the curse of Allah be upon the oppressors. "All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, who granted us with honour, dignity, knowledge, wisdom and the pride of martyrdom.

Agha Moosavi said that there is no place on earth where the echo of the sermons of Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) is not being heard.
