Srinagar, Oct 06 (KNS): Paying tributes to Hazrat Imam Hussain (RA) and his companions, the incarcerated chairman of Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) Shabir Ahmad Shah appealed the Muslims of Jammu and Kashmir to “uphold the great tradition of Shia-Sunni unity to foil the nefarious designs of imperialist forces".
"We have to stand united to counter every challenge posed to us by the Indian occupational rule," Shah said in a statement issued to press, adding, “Apart from military occupation, there is a growing challenge of cultural aggression from India. So, we must rise above our sectarian differences to overcome such challenges.”
Shah said the sacrifice of Imam Hussain (RA) and his companions is the guiding principle for life of the Muslims across the world. “We have to inculcate the spirit of Hussainiyat to resist the occupational forces and have to stand united against tyrant regime like a solid rock,” he said.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
Stressing on unity, Shah said the way Imam Hussain (RA) fought the tyrants of the time, we have to follow the suit. "India is subjugating us on several fronts. To weaken us internally, it is trying to attack our faith and to foil such ploys of this fascist nation we have to strengthen the unity within our ranks," he said.
“The life and sacrifices of Hazrat Hussain Bin Ali (RA) is a guide to success for us and we must follow the example of the Prophet's (SAW) grandson in letter and spirit,” Shah added.
