Srinagar July 09 (KNS): Jammu and kashmir Anjuman-E-Sharie Shian Aga Syed Hassan Mosavi Al-Safavi has felicitated the Muslim Ummah on the joyous eve of Eid ul Azha.
In a statement Aga said that Eid ul Azha is a day of remembrance of the obedience of Hazrat Ibrahim (Peace Be Upon Him) and the reverence of Hazrat Ismael (Peace be upon him), when these two honoured personalities set an extraordinary example of sacrifice and selflessness. Islam regarded this act of submission to Allah Almighty, which we term as Sunnah-e-Ibrahimi, an obligatory practice for the affluent Muslims.
The sacrifice rendered by people enlivens a society and the nation. This is the basic lesson behind the act of sacrifice. We need to rise above our personal, sectarian and party interests to get rid of extremist approaches and should work on converging our spirits of sacrifice towards the unity of the Muslim Community world over.
Aga Hassan also expressed condolences and sympathies to families whose yatri members who lost their lives in yesterday’s cloudburst at baltal and prayed for injuried yatris. (KNS)
