TEHRIK-E-NIFAZ-E-FIQH-E-JAFFERIA
(PRESS RELEASE)
RAWALPINDI, Pakistan - October 08: Chief
of Tehreek Nafaz-e-Fiqh-e-Jafariya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi expressing
grave shock on sudden destruction caused by earth quake in different parts of
the country including federal capital Islamabad has appealed to the whole nation
to seek forgiveness and recite Surah Zilzal in 30th part of holy Quran in plenty
with due fervour in this hour of difficulty.
He was addressing Mehfil-e-Anwar on
Saturday. He said Amer Bil Ma’roof and Nahi Anel Munker (enjoining good and
forbidding evil) has been termed the most important branch of religion. Giving
up this great obligatory deed may cause host of problems, social disorder and
calamities.
He said once Holy Prophet (SAW) said: What
a time that would be, when men and women will begin doing evils and Amer Bil
Ma’roof and Nahi Anel Munker will be given up. He was asked: O the Prophet of
Allah! Really would that time come? He replied: Yes, rather that time will also
come when you will enjoin evil and forbid good. He was again asked: Maula! Would
that time come? He replied: worst than this. You will see good with evil eye and
consider bad as good.
Moosavi said human beings have always been
facing floods, storms, earth quakes, nishaniyaat and ayaat, and all this happen
to warn them. He said Quran explains everything. Translation of its 99th Surah
Zilzal goes: “When the earth is shaken as, its shaking is appointed. And the
earth throws out its burden. And a human being says, 'what happened to her'?
That day it shall narrate its news that your Lord has sent command to her. On
that day people will return towards their Lord in groups, so that they may be
shown their deeds. Then whosoever has done good of an weight of an atom shall
see it. And whosoever has done evil of an weight of an atom shall see it.”
The TNFJ chief quoted a saying of Hazrat
Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (A.S.) that do not show laziness in reciting Surah Zilzal
because he who recites this surah in nawafil, he will never be ruined by quakes,
lightening and every kind of calamities, and when he will be ordered to enter
heaven, Allah will say to him at that time: ‘I have made heaven lawful for
you, you may live wherever you want and demand what you desire.’
He said there are movements for the earth
and to-date about 15 of its movements have come to known. By mentioning this
deadly quake, attention of human being has been called to the Day of Judgment,
and counting of deeds on that Day. That quake will be such that the earth will
go up and down, it will spit out everything. Before the doomsday quake, such
quake will jolt the earth which has been mentioned in Surah Hajj … when
everything will go annihilated ‘wa yabqa wajhu rabbika Zol Jalali wal
Ikram’. After this, another quake will come to cause the Last Day. By this
tremor, even the human dead bodies will come out of the graves in groups and
their links with souls will be re-established. When the quake to cause Judgment,
counting of deeds and resurrection will happen, the earth will fork everything
out of it, even the human beings. At that time a Chosen Personality will say
addressing to the earth: What happened to you? And the earth will tell him all
news.
The Quaid-i-Millat-i-Jafariya Hamid
Moosavi said that when a most powerful quake jolted the earth in the reign of
first caliphate, the caliph of Muslims accompanied by a big crowd came at the
door of Hazrat Ali (A.S.). He (A.S.) reached at a hill top along with them all.
Every nook and corner of Medina was jolting, people were afraid. The caliph
said: O Ali! We are much afraid; we haven’t seen such a quake. Therefore,
Hazrat Ali (A.S.) moved his lips and said while striking his hand on the earth:
O earth! Stop. On this, the people expressed their surprise. Maula Ali (A.S.)
said: You were surprised on my this deed, while Quran says: ‘Wa Qaal Al-Insano
Ma Laha’ (And a human being says, 'what happened to her'?). I’m that very
‘human being’.
Tamim ibn-e-Hatim says we were along with
Hazrat Ali (A.S.) while going to Basra. While travelling we stayed at a place
and quake jolted the earth. Gate of City of Prophet (SAW), Ali (A.S.), struck
his hand on earth and said: What happened to you? At this, the quake stopped at
once. Then he said to us: the quake which Allah has mentioned in the Book of
Allah, if this would be that quake, the earth will surely answer me. Therefore,
it is not that very quake.
Moosavi said this is crystal clear that
deeds and doings of all residents of earth are being saved in Sahifa-e-Baatni,
rather in the Kitab-e-Arzi. Therefore, Holy Prophet (SAW) says: fear earth
because it is your base. Verily he who does good or evil over it, it will give
its news. On one occasion, Holy Prophet (SAW) said to Sahaba (R.A.): Do you know
what are the news of earth? The Sahaba (R.A.) expressed their ignorance. Then he
(SAW) said: The news of earth are that it will bear witness about every man and
woman that who did what at what time on its back? It will tell everything by the
divine command.
He said difficulties come to Prophets,
Messengers, Aulia and Saliheen for height of their ranks, but difficulties,
diseases, calamities and quakes to common human beings on one hand are expiation
for their sins while on the other Allah call attention of all to Himself because
God has to take account of the game of oppression and barbarism being played in
the world at present.
Moosavi urged all rulers particularly
heads of Muslim States to link them with Allah by getting rid of colonial powers
as in it lay deliverance of humanity and height and dignity of human values.
He fervently appealed to all compatriots
to evade sudden calamity of quake in the motherland Pakistan by repenting with
true heart on this hour of hardship, offer namaz-e-Ayaat, promise themselves
wouldn’t fail in performing rights of Allah and rights of His servants and
would keep in view respect of whole humanity as therein is hidden our
deliverance and success.
