El-Zakzaky explained that what happened during the Quds Day procession in Zaria when many of his followers were killed was history repeating itself.
According to him, “the enemies had prepared the stage with sponsored campaigns of calumny against the Islamic Movement, which was not
yielding fruits”, adding that “when the campaign was not yielding fruits, they resolved to face the Movement with all their might, shooting to kill.”
El-Zakyzaky, who spoke yesterday during the 28th Islamic Vocation Course at the Jannatu Darul Rahma, Dambo Zaria, where the Quds Day
victims were buried, argued that “they have set up traps, planned ambush and staged bomb blasts uncountable times, but Allah thwarted their plans.
“They have done their worst without achieving their objective; they are now confused, disenchanted and full of shame. We are victorious,
because we are not fighting anyone; we are just talking. Their action has strengthened our resolve and determination on the course.”
El-Zakyzaky alleged that government had planned for what happened “so that there would be anarchy and a curfew would be imposed,” adding that “that would have given them the opportunity to go about detonating bombs and attributing it to Shi’a. Allah frustrated their effort.”
Besides, he also alleged that foreign powers were planning to impose the Afghanistan experience on Nigeria “by wiping out communities and people such as in Goza, Birnin Gwari, Katsian, Borno and Zamfara forests to establish military camps where they will siphon Nigeria’s resources that is more valuable and precious than that of Afghanistan, maximum casualties notwithstanding.”
Stressing that the uranium, gold and other mineral resources in Nigeria were more precious than that of Afganistan, he noted that “the only obstacle to their plan is the Islamic Movement, hence the constant plans and plots”.
“The world arrogance knew that the Islamic Movement is mass movement with conscience and true religion of the Ahlul Bayt that has link to Allah."
“This is why they intensify effort to crush us with all their might. They will never relent, as did the Quraysh during the time of the Holy Prophet, but one day they will give up.”
El-Zakzaky further alleged that the campaigns of calumny against the Shi’a were deliberate.
He, however, said, “people were becoming more aware of Shi’a and what it stands for, even among the Christians”.
While condemning the action of the Nigerian military, Sheikh Zakzaky described it as a blessing in disguise, which benefit would be reaped by the victims, the Movement and the whole society.
