Sheikh Spoke on Imam Musa Al-Kadheem(Alaihis Salam)
The leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky(H) spoke to thousands of people who attended the Annual Imam Mussa Al-Kadhim (AS)Martyrdom Anniversary and of course martyrs Day of the Islamic Movement in Zaria. Speaking to the gathering the leader started by expressing profound condolence over the martyrdom of the Son of the Pure Ones, Imam Mussa Al-Kadhim (AS). He added that the two occasions( Imam Mussa Al-Kadhim (AS) Mourning & Shuhada Day) took place on Saturday the 26th of Rajab, instead of 25th, for convenience of the Members.
Narrating the martyrdom of the Imam, Sheikh Zakzaky described it as a great symbol of Islam. He added that after the martyrdom of his father Imam Jafar As-Sadiq (AS), the rulers of that time went after his son Imam Musa Bn Jafar, where Haruna (Rasheed!?) ordered for his arrest and subsequent imprisonment in Baghdad; he was put under arrest for long time and at the end he was martyred through poisoning in 183 years after Hijrah. He was poisoned to death in a food presented to him to break his fast by a prison warder under the order of the ruler, Haruna.
To pretend his innocence, Harun attended the funeral of the great Imam who was matryed at the age of 55, sheikh Zakzaky explained.
Born in the month of Safar at a place called Abwak outskirt of Medina , his birth was a miraculous one where his pious mother explained that the little child was born while prostrating to Allah and reciting the Kalimah “la ilaha illal Lah , Muhammad Rasullullah’ explained Sheikh.
He added that today is the mourning of the martyrdom of Imam Kadheem, while Shuhada Day of the Movement is the second issue.
The World Arrogant Powers are after Muslims lives.
The leader of the Islamic Movement noted that on almost daily basis Muslims are being killed world over and responsibility is being shifted on Muslims. He added that in every incidence where Muslim is killed what one should find out is who benefited from the killing, he added that the enemies of Islam always benefit from such incidence and this is evidently understood from their utterances; killing is on the increase since Iraq occupation to date, every day there is a report of Muslims being killed; in Afghanistan too innocents are being killed including women and children in the name of killing Taliban militants!. While the issue of Pakistan is not reported due to the happenings in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Sheikh Zakzaky expressed further that killing of Muslim occurs daily and false justification is always given; the killing of a Muslim woman in German is another example. He narrated further that after the woman won her case in court, the German man appealed; the leader argued that what is normally obtained in other countries is that in an appeal case, he who won a case shouldn’t be invited to give account again, it is the Court of Appeal which would review the case and the judgment of the former Court to see if there is mistake without inviting the winner to give account again.
Alas! What happened in German reveals that in the thinking of the so called white in German and in many similar countries, a Muslim has no right to live a life, because the man stabbed the woman 18 times and nobody intervene to stop him; he was rather giving protection by Court Security by shooting her husband who rushed to rescue her. It is now discovered that the woman was three month pregnant, Sheikh pointed.
After the killing of Marwa Sherbini, none of the politicians and leaders in German spoke until much later when Muslim countries protested to express their anger!
Another incidence is what happened in Afghanistan, sheikh elaborated further, where they exhibited all sort of respect during the funeral of 8 Britons killed in Afghanistan; the perpetrators of aggressive war dressed in black to mourn the death of their colleagues who they considered more important than all the lives of innocents killed in Afghanistan in their senseless war and their turning of buildings there into rubbles!.
It is their habit not to show concern for any body’s life as they see other nations as their own assets to serve their selfish interest. They put any nation to labour as it seen clearly in their trade with other countries; if they wish they pay other nations, otherwise they refuse to pay back or pay with used items.
Sheikh Zakzaky expressed further that the lack of showing concern by western countries for the lives of other citizens should not be a surprise as they don’t have guidance or revealed religion with them; their view of life is just like that of Wild Animals or the Darwin Theory which is based on Survival of the Fittest- a view they employ even in world Politics.
Sheikh Zakzaky lamented that the most unfortunate thing is how they use fellow Muslims in carrying out their agenda; they use two methods- the software and hardware techniques, in both cases they train some Muslims to work on their behalf in perpetuating evils on Muslims; and they do train some group of Muslims to carry fake jihad there by causing deaths and destructions.
Situation in Nigeria
Sheikh Zakzaky elaborated further that in Nigeria they employ both methods- atimes they instigate one group against the other and their security forces would come for intervention but they would turn to killing as they wish.
He noted that sometimes they employ the services of thugs, as they did in Sokoto, to attack Muslims and their media would give a report of clash between Sunni and Shia adherents! They did it in Sokoto where the Governor, Alu Wammako was the head of fake Sunni group who leads people to the path of Satan and destruction.
What happened in Sokoto was just an experiment for larger nationwide attack; they attempted it in Jos, Kano and the latest failed one in Zaria during Ashura mourning gathering.
Sheikh Zakzaky expressed his dismay on how the thugs are being hired with token amount, to kill fellow Muslims, those who hire them explore the situation of abject poverty subjected on the masses. On the issue of the Ulema or clerics who instigate the thugs to attack and kill , they should know that they are working for the enemies of Islam – the world Zionist Jews.
The so called clerics are envious of progress the Struggle is making among the masses, though, they copy many values from us like wearing of Hijab by women, protest in support or against an event , but still they allowed themselves to be used by corrupt leaders to achieve their aims; they should know that the enemies , after using them, will turn against them too.
The leader however called on the thugs to be careful and cautious as they too would face the danger of being killed by those who hire them to cover their atrocities or to avoid been exposed.
One can never be accepted by the enemies of Islam into their circle unless he/she relinquish Islam altogether which they know when one insults Islam and the prophet, Sheikh elaborated.
The people at the helm of the affairs are apprehensive of our gatherings such as this, that is why sometimes they would use force to disperse it, as they did in the past in vain; he noted that even if they succeeded in dispersing our gatherings they can never removed the love of Islam and struggle from the hearts of people. It is a belief in sacred goals which can never be removed from hearts, he added.
To Transgressors and their corrupt system
Sheikh Zakzaky called on the corrupt leadership to desist from calling a gathering such as this as crowd, as the people who gather do not come together by accident. Again, peaceful gathering such as this, by the provision of law, does not require permission before conducting it; one may seek for security if there he so wishes and in this case there is no need.
Attempting to stop it will expose their weakness thereby invoking public disgrace for themselves, as the gathering can never stopped, the leader expressed.
He added that Islam comes to stay, so they should better stop disgracing themselves.
As the corrupt leaders, who want perpetuate themselves in power at the expense of the welfare of the people realized that Shiah and Islamic struggle will spread to every nook and corner, they resorted to promoting shia without struggle; shia which celebrates birthdays and mourning ; shia without struggle against injustice is like a body without soul and such type of Shia has no standing share in Nigeria, Sheikh explained.
What is attracting people to Shisim is the question the corrupt leaders ought to have asked. People have been subjected to oppression, injustice and abject poverty and without struggle they will continue to remain in bondage of injustice being imposed upon them; so people opted to what will emancipate them- Shiism and struggle.
Sheikh Zakzaky explained further that today is the mourning celebration of Martyrs of the Movement who died in the struggle, though, among them there are those who died through other causes like accidents due to potholes on the roads ( those died by road accident as they were attending gatherings of the Movement); it is only in Nigeria one finds potholes on roads which serve as death traps.
Sheikh explained that in Nigeria, deaths by road accidents are on the increase and many such deaths are unreported. The leaders are responsible for these deaths on the Day of Judgment and of course similar deaths like death due to lack of medicine and drugs in the hospital; poisonous fuel in which the exhaust kills people, fire outbreak due negligence on the part of leaders, arm robbery etc.
The leader of the Islamic Movement prayed for the souls of the martyrs and pray for Allah to bring the end of oppression and injustice.
