Governor urges tolerance, brotherhood

PESHAWAR: Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor Barrister Masood Kausar has appealed to the countrymen in general and the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Fata in particular to be alive to their surroundings, observe the highest level of tolerance, maintain highest degree of the spirit of fraternity, brotherhood and respect the feelings of others.

In his message on the eve of Aushura-e-Muharram-ul-Haram, the governor has further stated that this indeed is the spirit of Islamic brotherhood and the best way to pay tribute to the martyrs of Karbala. The complete text of the message is given below.

“Aushura Muharram-ul-Haram is a very sagacious and sacred occasion of the Islamic history which carries a comprehensive and far-reaching message for Muslims towards their character and obligations to Almighty Allah and society.

The selfless spirit of sacrifice, standing up for righteousness and truthfulness exemplified by Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS) and his companions is the best example of tolerance, patience, perseverance and courage in the face of ruthless adversity. It also depicts the rare precedent of steadfastness and commitment against the evil forces of tyranny and cruelty.

Imam Hussain (AS) preceded by the Prophet (PBUH) himself and the four exalted Caliphs exemplified that struggle for truth and justice is a harsh road to follow but the righteous walk on this thorn ridden path willingly. The slaughter of children bereft with thirst and hunger, but unwavering in their stance, encourages us to struggle for what is religiously and socially right.
