RAWALPINDI, Pakistan – 20 February: Chief of Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya Pakistan Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said that oppressed and Muslim people are confronting incursion of colonial powers, Zionists & Hindus, which are afraid of mazloomiat.

Addressing on the occasion of countrywide ‘Youm-e-Aza’ in connection with the martyrdom anniversary of Hazrat Imam Muhammad Baqir (A.S) Wednesday, Agha Moosavi said colonial powers want its political, economical, financial and cultural supremacy – and for this objective it targets one after the other. Root cause of achieving all these benefits is internal dissention, unrest and disturbance in Muslim and backward states as well as rule of colonial agents rulers who consider ‘Deen-o-Shariat’ personal affair of a man while the universal concept of ‘Haqooqul Ebaad’ (rights of human beings) also includes the basic and political rights of oppressed and have-nots. Aat present weak and downtrodden especially kashmiris and Palestinians who have been facing colonial atrocities since long, are deprived of these rights.

Agha Moosavi said Islam guarantees spiritual strength and felicity of hereafter to man besides providing protection to the rights of all. Everything is for man in its sight. Respect of humanity is distinguished merit of Islam and same is the practice of celebrities of Islam, he added.

Quaid-e-Millat-e-Jafariya Agha Moosavi said Hazrat Imam Muhammad Baqir (A.S) remained fighting against oppression, tyranny, barbarity and the worst terrorists of his age but no one could create reel in his steadfastness.

He said if oppressed nations want their integrity, stability and achievement of rights then they have to leave coward ness and greed because momin is not a coward, greedy and stingy in accordance with the saying of masoom (A.S)

Therefore we should adopt a joint strategy for the achievement of oppressed nations’ rights, failure of colonial plans and eradication of terrorism – in it lay stability of all countries and same is the message of mashaheer-e-Islam, moosavi advised.

Meanwhile, majalis were held and matamdari was performed on the occasion of Youm-e-Aza in connection with the martyrdom anniversary of Hazrat Imam Muhammad Baqir (A.S) throughout country. In Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Faisalabad, Larkana, Peshawar, Muzaffarabad, Skadru, D.I.Khan, Chakwal, Bhakkar, Attock, Quetta, Sheikhupura, Kherpur meras, D.G.Khan, Mianwali and at many other places majalis-e-Aza were held which were addressed by scholars, speakers and waezeen who mentioned masa’ib of Imam (AS)’s martyrdom while highlighting seerat-o-kirdar of Hazrat Imam Muhammad Baqir (A.S).

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan – 19 February: Chief of Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya Pakistan Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said Islam is a live, bright and life-bestowing great religion which is a complete code of life and provides wealth of felicity and good fortune of the two worlds and the soul and body of mankind.

He made his remarks in his special message on the occasion of martyrdom anniversary of Hazrat Imam Muhammad Baqir (A.S), which is being observed through out country on Wednesday as ‘Youm-e-Aza’.

Agha Moosavi said Ilm-o-Amal is the very base of Islam and every “sagheer-o-Kabeer’ of the holy family of Muhammad & Aal-e-Muhammad (PBUT) is an embodiment of ilm-o-amal. He said Hazrat Imam Muhammad Baqir (A.S) is the true successor of paighamber-e-sadiq-o-Ameen, the seal of prophets (PBUH & HP), who not only protected His (Holy Prophet) knowledge and thoughts rather performed right of real spokesman by its promotion and dissemination and got the appellation of ‘Baqir-ul-Uloom. Imam Baqir (A.S) was the eyewitness of the events of Karbala who with his respected father displayed such patience and steadfastness for the protection of the heritage of prophets (A.S) as well as unjust blood of the martyrs of Karbala, which is matchless.

Agha Moosavi said 57-year life period of Hazrat Baqir ul uloom is witness that any dictator howsoever big he was, neither could push him back from the path of Haq nor could bow him. Aaqa-e-Moosavi said the light of Islam everywhere is under obligation to His (Imam) peerless sacrifices and a fruit of Jazba-e-shahadat.

Quaid-e-Millat-e-Jafariya Pakistan urged that Millat-e-Islamia is the actual successor and heir of all knowledge that’s why our religion provides guidance to fulfill the needs and demands of time. So that we not only adorn our self with the education of every type of Technology but also get knowledge of newest developments in science because a saying of the respect-worthy son of Imam (A.S) goes that he who knows his needs and time he could never be entangled in the grip of vicissitudes of life in ignorance. Therefore, the words of president Musharraf to provide fund with generosity for the promotion of science and technology in Muslim Ummah is the most important need of time.

He said colonial powers have disturbed the peace of whole world and is likely to resume the sale of military equipment to India to create arm race in the region. To get rid of this the weapon of knowledge has to be used, Moosavi added.

RAWALPINDI, February 18: The Youm-e-Wafaat of Hazrat Abuzar Ghaffari (R.A.) was observed throughout the country including Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas as “Youm-e-Sadaqat” on Monday. Majalis-e-Aza were organised at mosques and Imambargahs on this occasion. Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan while addressing a “Youm-e-Sadaqat” Majlis said if the OIC adopts a joint strategy and considers all issues including Palestine and Kashmir and attack on any oppressed nation or a State as an attack on whole of the humanity then they would not only get Veto power in the United Nations but could also thwart every conspiracy hatched by the colonial powers. If they did not do so then they should be ready to face more problems and brutalities, he added.

The TNFJ chief said today the whole humanity in general, and the Islamic World in particular, were surrounded by colonial powers, Zionists and Hindus while their chief, America desires to target all oppressed and have-not Muslim people one by one in the garb of September 11 incident. He said if all oppressed sections pitch out themselves against it inculcating the spirit of Abuzar (R.A.) in them the American label of “axis of evil” on Iran, Iraq and North Korea and her day-to-day threats against them would prove futile.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said Islam is the truthful religion that guarantees survival for whole mankind while lying proves fatal. He said the Holy Prophet (SAW) is ‘Sadiq’ and ‘Ameen’ and his Asswah is the beacon of light for the whole mankind. He said Sahabi-e-Rasool Hazrat Jundab bin Janadah who is called “Abuzar” is the symbol of Haq and righteousness and this great capability could be seen in his decision-making, commitment and heroic stance. He also kept his faith in God. Someone said: “Abuzar (R.A.) there are no household items at your home”, he replied I have another home where I have sent the household. When asked that household items are required at the place where one lives, he said there is one personality that does not allow me to live here and asks you have to part one day.

Meanwhile, according to reports reaching TNFJ headquarters, “Youm-e-Sadaqat” Majalis were held in all big cities and towns including Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Allama Akhlaq Hussain Kazmi at Qasr-e-Imam Musa Kazim Sadaat Colony I-10 Islamabad, Allama Basharat Hussain Imami at Qasr-e-Khadijatul Kubra Tarlai Kalan Islamabad, Allama Guftaar Hussain Shah at Masjid-e-Jafariya I-9, Allama Shaikh Ghulam Askari at Qasr-e-Abu Talib Mughalabad, Maulana Tanveer Hussain Kazmi at Qasr-e-Shabbir Dhoke Syedan, Allama Qamar Abbas Kazmi at Haideria Masjid Chittian Hattian, and Hojjatul Islam Allama Hussain Muqaddasi addressed “Youm-e-Sadaqat” Majlis at Masjid and Imambargah Ahle Bait 26 Area Moejezagah Wah Cantt.

RAWALPINDI, February 17: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan has said keeping away from the norms of justice and fair-play was the basic reason behind the crisis, oppression, brutality and terrorism faced by the world of humanity. He stated this in a special message issued on the occasion of death anniversary of Sahabi-e-Rasool Hazrat Abuzar Ghaffari (R.A.) that is being observed as “Youm-e-Sadaqat” throughout the country on Monday, Zilhaj 5.

The TNFJ chief said adopting the principles of Mashaheer and heroes as beacon of light and not forgetting the same is the sign of live nations and no power, howsoever big in the world, could neither defeat such nations nor divert them from the path of success. He said Muslims are a live nation who not only kept on remembering their Mashaheer but also achieved so many successes by following in their foot-steps. One of those personalities is Hazrat Jandab bin Jandah Hazrat Abuzar Ghaffari (R.A.) who was graded as second in knowledge amongst the Sahaba Kubaar. He is included amongst those Sahaba about whom the Holy Prophet (SAW) had said: “God has ordered me to love four personalities, and Abuzar Ghaffari is one of them.”

Agha Moosavi said truthfulness is the biggest sign of a person’s bigness and the Holy Prophet (SAW) who himself is Sadiq and Amin had said about Hazrat Abuzar (R.A.): “The earth has not picked up any person and the sky has never shadowed any person, who could be more truthful and righteous person like Abuzar.” He said success lay in truthfulness and lying lands one in humiliation while the most truthful is the person who is most pious amongst all. He said Almighty Allah says in Quran to exercise justice and fair-play because it is commensurate with piousness.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said the biggest evil faced by the world of humanity is terrorism that is basically caused by illiteracy. He said illiteracy is darkness while knowledge is enlightenment. He said the Muslim Ummah would have to enrich itself with knowledge and education to get rid of colonialism, Hindus and Zionists. He said a saying of the Holy Prophet (SAW) goes: “Getting education is binding on every Muslim man and woman”. He said the knowledge that is beneficial for the world of humanity would have to be achieved and everything that is harmful for humanity would have to be avoided.

RAWALPINDI, February 16: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan has said resolving issues of Palestine, Kashmir and of the oppressed nations is the responsibility of the United Nations. The tension prevailing in the Middle East region and South Asia would not die down rather would increase further unless it gives importance to these issues like it did with Mashriqi Taimoor and the whole responsibility for this situation would lay on the United Nations in future also, he added. He stated this while talking to a delegation that called on him at the head of TNFJ Kashmir Council leader Syed Riaz Hussain Kazmi here on Saturday.

The TNFJ chief said except a couple of States, the United Nations is the representative organisation of all world States five members of which enjoy the Veto power and amongst them America is the most authoritative; capable of destructing anyone anywhere and that has been proved by an American official’s statement that she can attack Iraq single-handedly. He said America is under obligation, more than others, to get the Kashmir and Palestine issues resolved in the Middle East and South Asian regions in the light of the United Nations Resolutions keeping to the desire of their respective people because the Resolutions regarding the right of self-determinations were recognised with the approval of all States including Pakistan and India. Therefore, he said talking about readiness of both States for a dialogue was useless.

Agha Moosavi said the Palestinians and Kashmiris were following the defensive strategy, they are demanding right to live because they were even deprived of their basic rights at present. He said there is great importance for jehad in Islam and jehad is the name of ordering doing right things, stopping from evil-doing, displaying forbearance and steadfastness, and expressing hatred against the evil. He said at present, terrorism is the worst thing in this world that is why the whole Islamic World had condemned the Washington and New York incidents, and attacks on the Indian Parliament and on American Consulate in Colcutta. He said Islam is against every type of oppression, brutality and terrorism and gives priority to a honourable death over live in disgrace; this is what is called jehad.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said today all oppressed nations were struggling for achieving basic rights. He said the whole world could be turned into a hub of peace and every type of hatred, enmity and biases could be rooted out if they are allowed to live honourably. He said we express solidarity with the oppressed and have-nots whether they are Kashmiris or Palestinians irrespective of their country and Maslak.

RAWALPINDI, February 15: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan has said no religion allows violence and extremism, therefore, action of any singular person should not be treated an act of a whole Maslak or a country. He stated this while talking to a representative delegation of Hayyiet Ulema-e-Imamia that called on him here on Friday. He made it clear that Islam is the central point of Tauheed, unity, brotherhood, love, affection, and friendship while atheism that of anarchy, disunity, war and murder. He said Islam has given priority to welfare of mankind and condemned all types of aggression, biases, sectarianism, and terrorism. He said we had been saying right from the beginning that an oppressor, terrorist and aggressor should be seen in the same context.

The TNFJ chief said President Pervez Musharraf’s opinion that he was afraid of religious extremists was not correct because religion does not recognise such elements as its followers. He said actually the international colonial powers were afraid of unity and brotherhood of the Islamic World and thus desires to tear the Muslim unity apart. On the other they have themselves formed an international alliance, therefore they should give up fearing from religious elements, he added. He said if America and its allies desire to make this world a hub of peace, and see justice and fair-play is exercised all around then they should change their policy aimed at achieving supremacy and expansionism. 

Agha Moosavi said the norms of friendship demand to choose the same thing for others that is chosen for self, therefore, America should also take care of the interests of others also as it is the only way to keep the friendship intact. He said demands for recognition of the Palestinian State in the joint OIC-European Union session is a right step. He said the United Nations has recognised the right of self-determination for Kashmiris like the European Union and the OIC are signatories of their Resolutions. Similarly, America is one of the signatories of the Resolution demanding right of self-determination for
Kashmiris. 

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said considering the international issues of Kashmir and Palestine as issues of Middle East and OIC is not a right step rather these are the issues of the United Nations. If Israel and India do not accept these Resolutions then it would be tantamount to an insult to the United Nations and the OIC that represents 72 States. He called upon the ulema to disseminate the message of peace and integrity without any discrimination on the basis of State and Maslak. They would not be fulfilling their responsibilities vested in them by Shariat if they relax on this count, he added.

RAWALPINDI, February 14: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan has said that Pakistan has played its role in rooting out terrorism and now it was American turn to fulfil the norms of justice in terming Israel and India terrorists for their continued acts of terrorism in Middle East and South Asia for the last 53 years besides proving through her own character that neither America is a terrorist nation nor they would side with terrorists. He stated this while talking to a representative delegation that called on him at the head of TNFJ Divisional Council Sindh Coordination Secretary, Ahmed Barkat here on Thursday.

The TNFJ chief said at present whole of the human world was faced with terrorism and America was utilising all her energies in rooting out terrorism along with her allies in the garb of New York and Washington incidents. He said Pakistan is citadel of Islam based on the ideology of Islam that is a complete code of life and the source of survival for the whole mankind. He said Pakistan has proved through her deeds spread over its span of more than 54 years that neither it had been involved in terrorism nor it would involve in it in future rather had itself been a victim of terrorism many a time. He said we had told Washington soon after the Washington incident that one could not suppress oppression through oppression and terrorism with terrorism and a terrorist does not keep any religion, country or Maslak, he is just a terrorist.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said now when India was not ready for a dialogue or accept any mediation then the only solution to Kashmir issue lays in implementation of the United Nations Resolutions keeping to the desire of Kashmiri people holding a plebiscite there. The same solution could be applied to resolve the Palestinian issue, he said adding that it was the only way to make South Asia and Middle a hub of peace. He said if America played any positive role in this connection then the existing rather increasing hatred against her would change into a friendly attitude.

RAWALPINDI, February 13: The Youm-e-Shahadat of Hazrat Imam Muhammad Taqi (A.S.) was observed throughout the country including Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas as “Youm-e-Taqwa” on Wednesday. Majalis-e-Aza and Matamdari programmes were organised at mosques and Imambargahs. Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan in his special address on the occasion of “Youm-e-Taqwa” stressed the need for all Muslim States to defend their Islamic and religious frontiers also in addition of their geographical boundaries, as these frontiers were being trampled by the colonial powers responsibility of which also lay on Muslim rulers.

The TNFJ chief said Pakistan is the mole in the eyes of all evil forces while our perpetual enemy was utilising all its energy in destabilising Pakistan, they had deployed their armed forces on our frontiers besides activating terrorism within the country, its particular target being our economic jugular vein Karachi. All patriotic forces should therefore sever all types of their ties with terrorists and join the ranks of religion and the motherland, he added. He said Ayatollah Khomeini had rightly termed America as a “Satan elder” and she desires to avenge that remarks today that is why she was terming Iran, Iraq and North Korea “axis of evil”. He made it clear that we keep no personal friendship or enmity with anyone because we are followers of such a personality who left his enemy when he spat on him saying “I would not kill him for personal reasons” because whatever we do is for the blessings of Allah.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said if the chief of the terrorist world America has a bit of sense for justice and fair-play then she should keep in her mind that world could not be turned into hub of peace through oppression and brutalities. They will have to change their Hippocratic attitude and give the oppressed nations and the have-nots their due rights, particularly they will have to stop brutalities against Kashmiris and Palestinians, he added.

Meanwhile, Majalis-e-Aza in connection with “Youm-e-Taqwa” were organised in all big cities and towns including Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Maulana Ghazanfar Hussain Shirazi, Zakir Shakil Abbas and Zakir Zulfiqar Hussain Shah addressed Shahadat-e-Imam Taqi Majlis at the residence of Zakir Syed Zulfiqar Shah; Khateeb Fateh-e-Farat Syed Qamar Haider Zaidi, Zakir Nasir Abbas Kazmi, Zakir Nazir Hussain Jafri, Muhammad Abbas Baloch and Maulana Khurshid Haider Jawadi addressed “Youm-e-Taqwa” Majlis at Mashadi House Dhoke Syedan where Matamdari was also performed by Matmi Tanzeem Shahzada Ali Akbar; Allama Ghulam Askari addressed a Majlis at Qasr-e-Abu Talib; Allama Qamar Abbas Kazmi at Masjid-e-Haideria Chittian Hattian; Allama Matloob Taqi at Masjid Kazmia Chaur Harpal; and Allama Basharat Hussain Imami addressed a similar gathering at Qasr-e-Khadijatul Kubra Tarlai Kalan. Matamdari programmes were also organised at Qasr-e-Shabbir Dhoke Syedan and Jamiatul Momineen Satellite Town Rawalpindi on the occasion of “Youm-e-Taqwa”.

RAWALPINDI, February 12: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan has said Pakistan is not only citadel of Islam but also the citadel of the whole oppressed nations and our perpetual enemy was busy all the time to destabilise this citadel. He stated this in a special message issued on the occasion of Youm-e-Shahadat of Hazrat Imam Muhammad Taqi (A.S.) that is being observed throughout the country as “Youm-e-Taqwa” on Wednesday. Expressing his concern over the incident of terrorism in the country he said the murder of Muhammad Ramzan in Karachi the other day was the act of our combined enemy.

The TNFJ chief said we strongly condemn this incident and demand from the government to get the Presidential announcements to root out terrorism implemented strongly so as to ensure restoration of peace he said adding that no soft attitude should be displayed against the criminals involved and the innocent people arrested having no link with the banned organisations should be set free immediately otherwise we would be justified to understand that there exit black sheep in the government who desire to sabotage the step taken by the President of Pakistan and have some soft corner for terrorists which is tragic and condemnable. He made it clear that they keep survival, strength, solidarity and welfare of the religion and motherland dearer over all other things. He said the real success lays in submission to Almighty Allah and avoiding the Taghoot.

Agha Moosavi said Hazrat Imam Muhammad Taqi (A.S.) is the shining and glittering star of the Wilayat and Imamat who is a great and best heir of the Holy Prophet (SAW). He said the Imam (A.S.) remained confronted with every tyrant ruler in his era spread over 25 years for the promotion of Shariat-e-Mustafvi, Nazriaat-e-Murtazvi and Deen-e-Khudawandi. He said no dictator could make him bow down or divert him from the right path and as a “punishment” he kissed martyrdom. The Imam (A.S.), he said won the titles of “Jawwad” and “Taqi” for his generosity and piousness. His pious life is still a beacon of light for Muslims and the oppressed nations facing brutalities at the hands of international Taghoot, Zionists and Hindus in the garb of Washington and New York incidents, he added. He said these evil powers were terming Iran, Iraq and North Korea “axis of evil” so as to cause more harm to Iraq ultimately destroying it totally.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said the participants of the joint session of the OIC and the European Union were under the obligation to protect the whole world in general, and the oppressed nation in particular, from the American aggression rather they should increase their pressure on the United Nations to make the Middle East and the South Asia hub of peace. He said Kofi Annan has said that Kashmir issue is going to be resolved but one should know that that the permanent solution to the long-standing issues of Kashmir and Palestine lay in implementation of the United Nations Resolutions keeping to the desire of Kashmiri and Palestinian people giving them a fair chance for a plebiscite.

KOHAT, February 11: Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi, chief of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya, Pakistan has said defence of our ideology and belief, consideration of rights, promotion of unity and brotherhood, welfare of the people, and survival of the motherland is the objective before us and our active struggle in achieving the same would continue and no one would be allowed to cause any harm to the country and the Millat. He stated this while giving his special address at the Tajdeed-e-Ehad Conference organised by Mukhtar Students Organisation Kohat Division here on Monday. A large number of elite and workers from Bangash area, attended the Conference.

The TNFJ chief told the gathering that Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya was busy day and night with strong commitment to its manifesto with sincerity of purpose, we do not go for any personal achievement rather we offer all we have for our belief and motherland. He made it clear that religion was spread through Seerat and character displayed by the religious personalities, and not through kalashnikov and sword. He said ill believers and ill characters could not face the power of belief and character. He challenged that the TNFJ had neither given any policy contrary to the interest of the country and the nation, nor has taken any step that would have been a source of disappointment or shame for the Millat.

Agha Moosavi reiterated his resolve that they would never allow anyone to make this motherland, achieved through joint sacrifices offered by all schools of thought, a State of biases, it would remain the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. He announced his commitment with the nation that he would not allow any conspiracy against the motherland and ideology to succeed, come what may. He said our main objective is the mission of Wila and Aza and not the achievement of personal or materialistic gains. He said our Tehreek having pious objectives is inching forward with the blessings of Masoomin (A.S.) the real asset of which are the Matmi Azadars and the poor people. He said Founder of Pakistan is Muhammad Ali, therefore we would have to make our strong like with Muhammad (SAW) and Ali (A.S.) if we are sincere in Takmeel-e-Pakistan and we can do this by promoting Wila and protecting Aza, he added. He said by linking ourselves with the five pious personalities (Panjtan Pak) we could confront any big colonial, Zionist and Hindu power.

The Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi said the biggest and recognised schools of Muslim thought are Sunni and Shia, they are the branches of the Islamic tree and they would have to prove through their deeds that we all are united and desire survival, solidarity, honour and dignity of Pakistan. He said we shall have to root out the heroin & kalashnikov culture and biases, make the whole world a hub of peace, and express hatred against the American-Zionist-Hindu trio to save Pakistan. He said Wilayat-e-Ali and Azadari is the basis of our belief on which we would never bargain or allow anyone to do so. He said the whole world should keep in mind that we would not bear any hurdle in our belief and religious rights and would not hesitate in offering any sacrifice in defending the same. He said the righteousness never wait for anyone, and does not also depends on majority. A small number of people following righteous could overcome the majority of evil forces, he added. He said we are with the oppressed people whether they are in Kashmir or in Palestine because we are used to say Kalma-e-Haq even on the point of a spear that is why no one could bow us down or distract us from our pious mission.

The office-bearers of the Tehreek Nafaz Fiqh-e-Jafariya and its subordinate bodies, attending the Conference, assured Agha Moosavi of their full cooperation and reiterated their resolve to offer any sacrifice on his call. A cake was also cut to mark the completion of 18 years of Agha Moosavi’s leadership on this occasion. The participants of the Conference also presented the gifts of bouquets and flowers to Agha Moosavi.

RAWALPINDI, February 10: The decision of President Gen. Pervez Musharraf banning the extremist and terrorist groups was termed a courageous step at Estehkam-e-Pakistan Conference organised by Mukhtar Students Organisation Pakistan at Rawalpindi Press Club on Sunday on the occasion of “Youm Tajdeed-e-Ehad” observed throughout the country. The speakers at the Conference demanded from the government to strictly implement the amended Presidential Anti-Terrorism Ordinance. The Conference was presided over by TNFJ Provincial Council Punjab President Allama Abu Jaffar Naqvi while Shah Ghulam Qadir Finance Minister Government of Azad Jammu & Kashmir, S.A. Bokhari Chairman TNFJ Political Cell, Sajjad Khan Tehsil Naib Nazim Rawalpindi, and Ch. Mushtaq Hussain were the guests of honour on this occasion.

A declaration issued at the conclusion of the Conference said the solidarity of Pakistan demands that the rulers as well as the people should work with sincerity of purpose and the principles of Nazria-e-Asaasi Pakistan should be given priority over all other things. It said that as justice is the basis of Islam therefore norms of justice and fair-play should be fulfilled for the solidarity and development of the country. Moreover, it said all types of biases should be condemned and respect of every human being should be ensured as in it lays the key to solidarity and integrity of Pakistan. 

Addressing the Conference, Shah Ghulam Qadir said the main reason for sectarianism, heroin and kalashnikov culture, and terrorism is the active politics on religious and lingual basis that is fatal for the nation and the country. He said the country and the nation had to suffer in the past owing to political alliances with the sectarian parties and discouraging this practice in future was the need of the hour. Sajjad Khan Naib Nazim Tehsil Rawalpindi, in his address said the implementation of the proposal of Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Pakistan Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi in the election reforms that active politics from sectarian platform should be prohibited would go a long way in the democratic history of the country. 

Syed Abu Jaffar Naqvi TNFJ Punjab President, in his address said the status of the nation touched new heights owing to the leadership of Quaid-i-Millat Jafariya, Agha Syed Hamid Ali Moosavi who played an active role in rooting out every type of biases, terrorism and anti-Pakistan designs. Syed Qamar Haider Zaidi, Central Secretary Information TNFJ reiterated his resolve not to hesitate in offering any sacrifice for solidarity of the country, promotion of Wilayat-e-Ali and protection of Azadari whenever called for by Agha Moosavi. S.A. Bokhari, Chairman TNFJ Political Cell said restoration of durable peace in South Asia and solidarity of Pakistan are commensurate with the solution of Kashmir issue. Restoration of peace in the world could not be possible unless this long-standing issue is resolved keeping to the desire of Kashmiris in line with the United Nations Resolutions, he added. 

A resolution adopted at the Conference that strongly supported the independence movements the world over, particularly the struggle of Kashmiri and Palestinian freedom fighters and called upon the international organisations to try and punish India and Israel for war crimes recognising the bloodshed going on in Kashmir and Palestine for the last 53 years as terrorism, if they really desire to root out terrorism and restore peace throughout the world. Another resolution while supporting the government decision to ban extremist and terrorist groups expressed its concern that innocent people have been arrested in different parts of the country instead of those belonging to the banned organisations. It demanded immediate release of all those who do not belong to these organisations. 

Those who also addressed the Estehkaam-e-Pakistan Conference are: Syed Najabat Hussain Kazmi, M.H. Jafri, Allama Matloob Hussain Taqi, Allama Ijaz Hussain, Naseer Sabzwari, John Ali Shah, Syed Ala Haider, Haider Abbad, Zakir Abdul Ghaffar, Bashir Hussain Niaz, Syed Aqeel Naqvi, Raja Muhammad Ashraf, and Wajih-ul-Hasan Zaidi.
