Fighting Netanyahu and Trump as the Shammar and Yazid of the Time Requires Following the School of Imam Hussein (AS)

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Mazar-e-Sharif: Hojjat-ul-Islam and Muslims Sayyid Haider Hashemi, representative of Ayatollah Sistani in Balkh province and speaker of the Ashura ceremony at the Soltaniyeh Mosque, pointed out that Ashura is not only for mourning, but also a day of slogan and honoring a life with dignity, and said that 99.9 percent of the country's residents are Muslims and followers of Imam Sadiq (AS) and Imam Abu Hanifa (RA), and the Great Imam also had the honor of being a student of Imam Jafar Sadiq (AS) for two years.

 

He added: The Quran says that if you want guidance, happiness and success, hold on to the rope of Allah, and according to the narrations of the Infallibles (AS), the rope of Allah means the Ahlul Bayt of the Prophet (PBUH). This religious scholar stated that Imam Hussein (AS) was martyred 1386 years ago and that Muslims, old, young and children, including women and men, are gathering today to mourn Hussein with warmth, suffering and hardship. He stated that Imam Hussein (AS), the son of the Messenger of God (PBUH), is the rope of Allah and following him is definitely a guide.

 

Hujjat al-Islam Hashemi said that Imam Hussein (AS) said: "I did not leave Medina to gain power, but I left to reform the nation of my grandfather." Therefore, it is necessary to know that the dignity of Islamic societies is not ensured by following the West, but by following Hazrat Abu Abdullah al-Hussein (AS), because Ashura is not an occasion, but a divine and savior method and character.

 

He called Yazid and his government apparatus the standard of opposition to Islamic and human values ​​and added: "Fighting oppression, moral corruption, atheism and distortion are the main axes of the Ashura movement."

 

He acknowledged that Imam Hussein (AS) gave three speeches in front of an army of 30,000 enemies, and in one of his speeches he said: "Do not rush to kill me, but investigate and think about my lineage. Am I not the son of the daughter of the Prophet of God, and did not the Prophet (PBUH) say that Hassan and Hussein (AS) are the youth of Paradise, and if you do not know, go and ask the living companions of the Prophet (PBUH)."

 

He said that Karbala is a school of struggle against oppression and deviations, and if the Ashura celebration is not held, Islam will definitely be destroyed, because we see that Muslims, unaware of the school of Imam Hussein (AS), make a pact with Israel and are indifferent to the merciless killing of people around the world, especially the residents of Gaza.

 

Hojjatoleslam Hashemi praised the solidarity and sympathy of the mourners of Hussein (AS) with the residents of Gaza, and acknowledged that love for the master of martyrs, Agha Abu Abdullah Al-Hussein (AS), is the honor of Afghanistan. He praised the current government of the country with the management of religious scholars and called on Taliban officials to be more loyal to the homeland and the people than before so as not to create a basis for threats.

 

Ashura: A symbol of justice and dynamism in all ages

Meanwhile, a number of other speakers at the ceremony added: "The justice-seeking interpretation of the Ashura movement is by any logic and standard, and Imam Hussein (AS) is a teacher of humanity."

 

They said: "The revolution of Imam Hussein (AS) is not bound by time and place, but is alive and dynamic in the eras of history, which is why the memory of Hussein ibn Ali (AS) is alive on the five continents of the earth."

 

The speakers at the Ashura ceremony for Hussein stated that Shimr and Yazid are the era of Netanyahu and Trump, and they are killing innocent people of the world, especially the residents of Gaza, with the false slogan of human rights. Therefore, the Islamic nation must follow the logic of Ashura and achieve victory over Yazid and the Shia and destroy them.

 

Also, emphasizing the Shia and Sunni belief in the emergence of Imam Mahdi (a.s.) and that the Ashura ceremony be held in the holy shrine or shrine attributed to Imam Ali (a.s.) in the center of Mazar-e-Sharif with the cooperation of the government, were other topics raised in the ceremony. Reciting lamentations, beating the chest, chanting "Labbayk Ya Hussain (a.s.)" and performing the Ashura noon prayer also formed other parts of the ceremony.
