Senior Kashmir figure: Uphold tradition of Shia –Sunni unity

Ahlul Bayt News Agency - Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) chairman Shabir Ahmad Shah yesterday 24th Oct. appealed the people to uphold the tradition of Shia-Sunni unity to foil ‘the designs of imperialist forces’.  

"By exhibiting unity among ourselves, we have to counter every challenge posed to us by the enemy. There is a growing challenge of cultural aggression from New Delhi and we must rise above our sectarian differences to overcome such challenges.

New Delhi is subjugating us on several fronts. To weaken us internally, it is trying to attack our faith and to foil such ploys we have to strengthen the unity within our ranks," said Shabir Shah.

Terming the life and sacrifices of Hazrat Hussain Bin Ali (RA) as guide to success, he said, “The resistance camps must follow the example of Hazrat Hussain's (RA) sacrifice. It serves as guide for pro-freedom camps.”

Meanwhile, Shah termed as justified the protests by the Muslims in Bhaderwah where people found verses of holy Quran written on the remains of burnt firecrackers. “The religious sentiments of Muslims are being hurt under a well planned conspiracy.  To respect and revere the holy book is part of our faith and any such act that violates its sanctity is intolerable," he said, demanding that the perpetrators of sacrilegious act should be immediately brought to book.
