A spiritual and intellectual gathering was organized at the Minhaj Institute of Qira’at and Hifz-ul-Qur’an, Lahore, in remembrance of the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (A.S.). The session was attended by students, teachers, and administrative staff.
Addressing the gathering, Principal Muhammad Abbas Naqshbandi stated that the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (A.S.) is a shining chapter in human history, symbolizing resistance against oppression, the elevation of religion, and unparalleled sacrifice for truth. He said that Imam Hussain (A.S.) sacrificed everything for the truth and the supremacy of the Deen of Mustafa (PBUH), but never bowed before falsehood.
He emphasized that the great sacrifice of Karbala calls on us to remain steadfast on the path of truth under all circumstances and not to compromise our principles for worldly gains. The message of Karbala, he said, is a lesson in action, awareness, and deep understanding.
He urged the students to adopt the traits of justice, patience, and courage in their lives by following the example of Imam Hussain (A.S.) and to present themselves as living embodiments of the Hussaini character to the world.
Among those present at the event were Vice Principal Qari Syed Khalid Hameed Kazmi Al-Azhari, Coordinator Qari Ismail Saeedi, and the entire teaching faculty of the institute. The speakers paid tribute to the supreme sacrifice of the martyrs of Karbala and remarked that the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (A.S.) gives us the courage to stand up against tyranny in every era.
The ceremony concluded with a special prayer (du'a) for the elevation of the ranks of the martyrs of Karbala.
