SPECIAL MESSAGE OF QUAID-I-MILLAT-I-JAFARIYA AGHA SYED HAMID ALI SHAH MOOSAVI IN CONNECTION WITH THE MARTYRDOM ANNIVERSARY OF AMIRUL MOMINEEN HAZRAT ALI IBNE ABI TALIB (A.S.) 19 TO 21 RAMAZAN AYYAM-E-AZA (MOURNING DAYS)

Human excellences and merits are acquired. Prophets,
Messengers, Chosen Figures, Righteous Persons, Caliphs, and A’aimma Huda (A.S.)
are adorned with divine ranks – Prophethood apostleship, caliphate, Imamat and
Wilayat on the basis that they are already showered with height and acme. They
are not showered with height and excellence owing to divine echelons rather they
are placed on divine posts on the basis of heights.

Allah has talked about Quranic knowledge first, and then the creation of
humanity.

A greatest personality from amongst the Representatives of Allah is Ibne
Amm-i-Rasool (paternal cousin of holy Prophet S.A.W.) Zoj-e-Batool (Spouse of
Hazrat Batool A.S.) Hazrat Ali ibne Abi Talib (A.S.), who was laced with Godly
traits, an embodiment of praiseworthy virtues and free from all type of
demerits. He was exemplary in knowledge, bravery, piousness, oratory, eloquence,
struggle, jihad and justice.

About justice, Allah says:

while the Holy Prophet (SAW) said:

The best amongst you in justice and fair-play is Ali (A.S.).

This saying of holy Prophet (SAW) is also commonly known:

I am the city of knowledge and Ali is its gate, one who wants to enter the city
should come through the gate.

That is why the whole universe used to consult Hazrat Ali ibne Abi Talib (A.S.).
Hazrat Omer bin Al-Khatab had that much faith in his advice that whenever he
felt any difficulty he used to consult him. On one occasion he said:

Had there been no Ali (A.S.) then Omer would have been ruined.

As Maulana Zafar Ali Khan says:

The biggest proof of his knowledge and excellence is found in his decisions that
are a constant part of books of ahadis and history. And there are many such
problems that had been resolved by Ali (A.S.), and when these decisions were
presented to the Rasool (SAW), he maintained those decisions rather he said once
that:

For me there is the same decision as has been given by Ali (A.S.).

When the Holy Prophet (SAW) was told about a decision made by Maula-e-Kainaat,
he became happy and said:

Thanks to Allah Who blessed us with wisdom.

He was that much trustworthy that for returning the trustful things of Quraish
kept with the Holy Prophet (SAW), he appointed Hazrat Ali (A.S.) on the occasion
of migration for returning these things. The bravery itself is proud of Ali’s
bravery on which wars of Badr, Uhad, Khyber, Khandaq and Hunain stand witness.
His bravery has no match. The name of Ali (A.S.) is the symbol of victory,
success, bravery and courage even today. As a poet says:

In short, he enjoyed singular status on many counts. His worship was also
singular in status that Zubair bin Saeed Qureshi had to say:

I have never seen any Hashmi more worshipper and devotee than Ali ibne Abi Talib
(A.S.).

Ummul Momineen Hazrat Aisha (R.A.) says:

To the extent I know, Hazrat Ali (A.S.) was the biggest fast-keeper and
worshipper.

According to the holy Quran, martyrdom has been termed the climax of worship and
the Poet of the East says:

Hazrat Ali ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) is the only personality in the entire universe
who at the time of martyrdom had said:

By the God of Kaba, Ali has become successful

It is clear cut proof that Ali had fully fulfilled the rights of Allah and His
servants.

That is why he announced his success and victory while achieving the acme of
worship i.e. martyrdom. This is the biggest proof of his piousness, Taharat
(purity) and Ismat (infallibility) besides all his virtues and excellence.
Maula-e-Kainaat Hazrat Ali ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) achieved that status of
martyrdom in the holy month that called the Month of Allah and kissed martyrdom
on the night that is the best of all nights in supremacy and height.

May the humanity achieved from the announcement of ‘Salooni’ ‘Salooni’ from Ali
ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) and walked on the path of Ali (A.S.) that is the Straight
Path and followed his principles that were actually the principles of the Khatmi
Martabat (SAW), then neither the world would have faced oppression, brutality,
and suppression today nor that would have come under the attack of cyclones,
hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and catastrophes because there is a
consolidated saying that goes:

Stars are peace for those who live in the sky and Muhammad (SAW) and Aal-e-Muhammad
(A.S.) are peace for those who are on earth.

Therefore there is a saying of the Khatmi Martabat (SAW):

I, you and your sons Hassan and Hussain and the nine sons of Hussain are pillars
of religion and foundation of Islam, one who follows us, achieves deliverance,
and one who doesn’t, goes towards hell.

There is a promise from Allah that:

And not at all sent wrath on them till the time you remained there in them, and
Allah will never send wrath on them till the time they continue seeking
forgiveness (Surah Al-Anfaal Ayah 33).

Therefore, it is the promise of Allah that in the presence of the Holy Prophet
(SAW) and in case of seeking forgiveness, the whole humanity could remain
protected from all types of disasters. Two things are shelter for the sinful;
one is the presence of Muhammad Mustafa (SAW) and the other is seeking
forgiveness. As all A’aimma (A.S.) are Muhammad, therefore wrath could not come
on their Ummat.

When we continue avoiding mistakes and sins then there is no question of any
wrath on the Ummat-e-Wasat. Then the question arises that why we are surrounded
by disasters today? The reply is that we ourselves are responsible for the same
because if you seek wrath owing to our misdeeds then it is useless to complain
Allah for that. As on one occasion a person sought wrath from Allah during the
life time of the Paighambar (SAW) and that has been mentioned in Quran in these
words:

(Ma’arij Ayah 1).

In other words, people themselves challenge to Allah and they are still doing so
and they have given up the path of Muhammad (SAW) and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) and
their pious companions, and have thrown themselves in the valleys of sins.

If we repent for sins with true heart admitting the presence of Muhammad (SAW)
and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) and announce our commitment that we would go all out
for submission to the Creator and service to the creature then He is the One Who
is Merciful and Beneficent, and the Rasool (SAW) whom we follow is Rahamatul-lil
Alameen, and his Ahle Bait Atahar (A.S.) pious Sahaba Kubaar (R.A.) used to
forgive, and Ali (A.S.) who is that kind personality who offers soft drink even
to the enemy, if we seek help from them we can get rid of all types of
catastrophe and all problems and difficulties. As a poet says:

On this mournful occasion of martyrdom anniversary of Amirul Momineen Hazrat Ali
ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) and in line with the Ayyam-e-Aza announced from 19th to
21st Ramazan-ul-Mubarik by the Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya, we presenting
condolence and consolation to Khanwada-e-Muhammad (SAW) and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.)
and followers of the Khatmi Martabat (SAW), announce our commitment that we
would not hesitate from offering any big sacrifice for achievement of these
targets, and for promotion and protection of ‘Wila’ and ‘Aza’.
