Lahore: Ameer, Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Syed Munawar Hasan, has said that the message Imam Husain (RA) gave to the Muslims by sacrificing his life and his entire family at Karbla was that they should continue their struggle against tyrants and oppressive rulers even if they had to lay down their lives.
In his message to the nation on Ashura, he said that a true Muslim would be ready to offer every sacrifice for the rule of the Holy Quran and the Sunnah but would not surrender before the rebels of Allah.
Syed Munawar Hasan said the forces of Kufr all over the world had united at present and had attacked the Muslim world. The Muslims were being killed like insects, as foretold by the Holy Prophet in one of his oft quoted Ahadith. He said there were more than one a half billion Muslims in the world at present but they were living as slaves only due to the cowardice of the Muslim rulers who lacked any sense of honour. He said the US was setting new records of tyranny, terrorism and bloodshed to thrust its New World Order on the world and was carrying out the massacre of the Muslims in different parts of the world as it considered Islam and the Muslims as the greatest obstacle in its path. It had killed millions in Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan. The Pakistani nation was fighting for its survival while its rulers were serving as enemy a gents.
Syed Munawar Hasan said if the Muslim Ummah wanted to preserve its identity, it should rise above petty differences and unite to get rid of its rulers.
