SPECIAL MESSAGE OF AGHA SYED HAMID ALI SHAH MOOSAVI Qauid-e-Millat-e-Jafariya Pakistan on the Occasion of Youm e Babul hawaij In connection with 25 Rajab Martyrdom anniversary of Imam Moosa Kazim (AS)

Brethren in Iman!

Everything except Allah is the world and human being has been termed most respectable and distinctive than everything in this world

(No doubt, we showered elderliness to Bani Adam and provided transportation facilities to them on earth and in water, and provided them eatables of pious things and given them preference over a large number of our creation)

Everything in the universe was created for the human being, as said by Allah:

(He is Omnipotent Who created the whole universe on earth for you)

He created earth, sky, sun, moon, twinkling stars, running rivers, blossoming gardens, scented flowers, and all other things for the human being

(Subdued day and night for you and sun, moon and stars are under your control on His Commandment and there are signs in things for those who are wise)

(He is Omnipotent Who put the river under your control)

Thus when every thing was created for the human being then every thing should be in his use so as to unveil his dignity and supremacy but on what basis he will get this right? Definitely being a wise person. So wisdom becomes the reason for this difference but not all wisdom rather

(The wisdom with which worship of God is carried out and through which heaven could be achieved).

The more blessing the wisdom would get, the more worship of Allah will be carried out. The worship is the source of achieving heaven and it is based on piousness and this piousness is the sign of human being’s elderliness

(The most elderly amongst you is the one who is more pious amongst you)

For that reason the universe was subdued for the human being but for those human beings who are placed at the highest pedestal of piousness. Take the example of immovable articles that are lifeless, are not able to talk but when are placed at the hands of the Kamil (complete — a person who fulfils all norms of piousness) human being, they start reciting Kalamah. When Hazrat Hanfiah (R.A.) and Hazrat Imam Zainul Abideen (A.S.) desired a decision from Hajr-e-Aswad (that is immovable and not able to talk); when Hazrat Hanfiah (R.A.) asked from the Hajr-e-Aswad who is the Imam-e-Barhaq (Righteous Imam)? Me or Zainul Abideen (A.S.)? There was no reply but when Imam Zainul Abideen addressed the Hajr-e-Aswad and asked

(Talk, who is the Imam?)

(Thus came the reply, you are the Imam, you are the Imam).

This is what you call subduing of the universe.

After the Holy Prophet, Khanwada-e-Muhammad and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) enjoyed superiority over all Bani Adam in wisdom, piousness, Ismat-o-Taharat, courage, bravery and all other positive and good capabilities and the whole creature was subdued for them. A great personality of the same Khanwada is Hazrat Imam Musa Kazim (A.S.) who enjoyed the title of “Babul Hawaij”, a person who fulfils the desires. He is the son of Sadiq Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) and Hazrat Hameedah Khatoon (A.S.). He was very kind and soft-spoken and was also given the title of “Al-Kazim”, the one who bears rage. He was commonly known as Kazim because he was very kind and used to forgive the excesses of the people more than often. (Sawaiq Muhriqah).

He used to worship excessively, going into Sajdah with the rising of the sun and remained in this condition till Noon. He became so weak owing to excessive worship that people could not recognize him in detention. At the time of worship, only a white cloth could be seen on the prayer mat and after watching him in worship more often, Haroon Rashid had to say that you are amongst the most pious persons of the Khanwada-e-Bani Hashim. (Fasal Al-Khitaab)

Every body belonging to Khanwada-e-Muhammad and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) was great, therefore they had to bear every difficulty in protecting religion but they did not back out even a bit from their responsibilities and kept the religion dearer than their own lives. Every tyrant ruler and dictator, like always, considered his presence a danger for his rule. The idea jumped in the mind of Khalifa Mahdi, after ruling for a few days, that there is no value of his rule in the presence of Khanwada-e-Risalat and Nabuwwat and their spiritual grandeur was a hurdle before his government, therefore he detained Hazrat Imam Musa Kazim (A.S.) in Baghdad. During the period of detention, he witnessed many fearsome dreams and when saw Imam’s grandfather Hazrat Ali (A.S.) in his dream, he then ordered the release of the Imam (A.S.). After him, his son Hadi took over the rein of power and he put the Imam (A.S.) in jail again. One night he saw Hazrat Ali ibne Abi Talib (A.S.) reciting
in his dream, feared much and released the Imam (A.S.) immediately (Sawaeq Muhriqah). After Hadi, it was Haroon Rashid who not only detained the Imam (A.S.) but also put him under heavy guard besides teasing and maltreating the Imam (A.S.). Therefore, the Imam kissed martyrdom during detention on 25th Rajab-ul-Murajjab, 182 Hijra in the age of 54 years.

His holy grave at present is in Kazmain, Iraq, and Zaireen (visitors/pilgrims) from all over the world not only visit his holy grave but also seek their desires that are fulfilled in plenty.

I present my condolences to Hazrat Imam Al-Asr Waz Zaman, Ajjalallaho Ta’ala Farajahu and the Muslim Ummah on the occasion of great martyrdom of this great personality. A saying of Hazrat Imam Musa Kazim (A.S.), forefather of Kazmi, Mash’hadi, Rizvi, Taqvi, Naqvi, and Moosavi Sadaat goes: Deal the oppressive with an iron hand so that you could snatch the right of the oppressed, and the best of the forgiveness is helping out the oppressed.

At present the whole world of humanity is confronted with the oppression and brutality of biggest oppressors of the world of oppression i.e. Bush, Tony Blair, Sharon and Vajpayee who have made the life of oppressed and the have-nots difficult in the garb of rooting out terrorism. Sharon and Vajpayee have made the life of Palestinians and Kashmiris difficult by playing ‘holi’ with their blood while Bush and Tony Blair were getting ready to attack Iraq paying no heed to Kofi Annan’s warning. They have disseminated the text of the new Resolution that actually is a bundle of lies saying that they would shatter Iraq if it did not do this or that. In these circumstances, the recognized organization of the world of humanity, the United Nations, was under the obligation to stop these oppressors, who have shattered peace all over the world, from carrying out oppression and brutality. The Islamic World is also under the obligation to speak out, display courage, and adopt combined strategy using the outfit of piousness as a weapon:

(Pious persons are seen confronted with problems and test but they become successful finally);

(The Hereafter the for the pious persons);

(The outcome of piousness is good only).

Therefore, the OIC summit should fully defend any State subjected to oppression terming it oppression on the whole humanity.

We reiterate our resolve to continue our protest against the oppressed by raising voice in favour of the oppressed and the have-nots, and will give preference to death in honour over life in humiliation. May God help us all.

Khakpai Aulaad-e-Zahra (S.A.),
