Protest rally in support of Middle East uprisings in Mumbai

A message to all members of Husaini Youths


To support the uprisings in various countries of Middle East, youths from Mumbai and Pune joined hands to hold a protest rally to support the cause of Oppressed people of Libya, Yemen, Egypt, Tunisia and Bahrain.

Hundreds of people from all the ages, kids, teens and elders gathered in historic 'Freedom Ground' (Azad Maidan) of Mumbai on 25th Feb, 2011, chanting slogans of Down Down, Al Khalifa, Death to Ghaddafi, Death to Israel, Death to America, Death to Dictators while holding flags of Middle Eastern Countries and placards showing their anger and frustration on the western supported dictators like Husni Mubarak, Bin Ali, Al Khalifa, King Abdulla, etc.



Many Islamic scholars including Maulana Farman Moosavi, Maulana Shahidi, etc had given speeches to highlight the issue of Middle East uprising and conspiracies of west in killing innocent people.

This is to bring your attention that atleast 1500 innocents has lost their lives in bloody massacre in Libya by the forces of Colonel Ghaddafi while several lost their lives in uprising in Bahrain and Yemen.



Several Bahraini students from Pune also addressed the rally stating their concerns about the ongoing onslaught in Bahrain on their friends and families. Brother Hussain who is from Bahrain and currently pursuing his studies in Pune quoted how the troops loyal to Al Khalifa shot dead her grand mother with rubber bullet.

Crowd also chanted slogans related to Karbala, symbolizing their ongoing fight with oppression and injustice on the line of Holy struggle of Imam Hussain (AS) and vowed that their struggle will go on till there will be oppression and injustice in this world.

Lailatul Jaiza

The Night Preceding 'Eid-ul-Fitr' It had been the practice of the Prophet Muhammad, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, that he would pray during the night preceding the day of Eid-ul-fitr. This night has been named in a Hadith as the Night of Reward (Lailatul Jaiza). Almighty bestows his rewards on those who have spent the month of Ramadan abiding by the dictates of Shari'ah, and all their prayers in this night are accepted. Therefore, it is desirable to perform nafl prayers during this night. The Prophet, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, is reported to have said: Whoever stands up (in worship) in the nights preceding the two Eids expecting rewards from his Lord, his heart will not die when the other hearts will die. (Hadith-Ibn Majah) (His heart will not die during the time of evil and corruption. It could also mean that with the blowing of the trumpet his soul will not become unconscious.) SUNNATS OF EID:      Wake up early.      Take a Ghusl (bath) be...

God will always send us what we need

A woman was at work when she received a phone call that her daughter was very sick with a fever. She left her work and stopped by the pharmacy to get some medication for her daughter. Upon returning to her car she found that she had locked her keys in the car. She was in a hurry to get home to her sick daughter. She didn't know what to do, so she called her home and told the baby sitter what had happened and that she did not know what to do. The baby sitter told her that her daughter was getting worse. She said, "You might find a coat hanger and use that to open the door." The woman looked around and found an old rusty coat hanger that had been thrown down on the ground, possibly by someone else who at some time or other had locked their keys in their car. Then she looked at the hanger and said, "I don't know how to use this." So she bowed her head and asked God to send her some help. Within five minutes an old rusty car p...

Shahadat of Ameerul Ali ibne Abi Talib (a.s.) - A Nation's Loss

As-Suyuti (Shafi’i scholar) relates that Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said: Love of Ali is faith, and enmity towards him is sedition. (Kanzu 'l-`ummal. In as-Suyuti, Jam`u 'l-jawami `, vol.6, p.156) It was 19th of Ramadhan 41 Hijri while Ameerul Momineen Ali ibne Abi Talib (a.s.) was leading the morning prayers and was in the second sajdah of the 2nd Rakaat that Ibne Muljim’s (l.a.) sword fell and subsequently the life of the greatest warrior saint was taken away to his merciful Lord. This was the time when Ameerul Momineen Ali ibne Abi Talib (a.s.) uttered his famous words : "Fuzto be rabbil Kaaba" - "By the Rab of Kaaba, I am successful". The crime of assassinating Ameerul Momineen Ali ibne Abi Talib (a.s.) remains one of the most cruel, brutal and hideous, because it was not committed against one man, but against the whole rational Islamic leadership. By assassinating Ameerul Momineen Ali ibne Abi Talib (a.s.), they actually aimed at ass...
