Ashura uprising is epitome of sacrifice and solidarity: Incarnated Aga Syed Hassan
Paying homage to the martyrs, the President J&K Anjuman-E-Sharie Shian Aga Syed Hassan Mosavi (who is continuous under House Detention Since 3rd Augest’2019) said that Hazrat Imam Hussain’s sacrifice showed that truth was always victorious, adding that people should learn from his example.
In his message Aga Hassan said the day of martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain (a.s) is an event that was reminiscent of the immense sacrifices rendered by the martyrs of karbala in order to uphold the spirit of Islam.
“The great epic of Ashura has a lot of messages and lessons that affect various dimensions of our political, social, and individual life. It played a major role in terms of making sacrifices and promoting altruism,” Aga Hassan Said
Aga Hassan further said , “The philosophy and the goal of the genesis of humankind are to worship God. The Holy Quran states, ‘I have not created mankind and jinn except to worship me.’ If we want to worship God, and if we want to achieve the goal of the genesis of humankind, then we should take into account two very important factors: paying attention to God and Akhirah (the afterlife). And if we strengthen our belief in God and Akhirah, we will be able to be a friend of God, which is the goal of the genesis. To this end, we need to follow in an imam’s footsteps. The imam plays a major role in leading us to God and Akhirah. Paying attention to God and Akhirah was on full display on the day of Ashura.”
“In Karbala, Imam Hussein (AS) was an epitome of worshiping God. If it had not been for the uprising of Imam Hussein, the issue of worshiping God would have been ended. Moreover, the imam fully demonstrated the spirit of altruism and making sacrifices,” Aga Hassan said, adding that Imam Hussein has endured a lot of sufferings for the sake of God, which immortalized him in the eyes of millions of people around the world.
The spirit of making sacrifices and altruism was strikingly remarkable in the fight against injustice , corruption, oppression martyrdom-seeking spirit of devotion is not instilled in the traditional classes at universities or schools, rather it is being instilled into them at the mourning ceremonies for the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (AS),” Aga Hassan asserted.
