Allama Inyat Ullah Qadri
Expressing his views, Allama Inyat Ullah Qadri, researcher on writings of Hadrat Sultan Bahoo (R.A), stated that Allah has described those who sacrifice their lives for Him as “martyrs” and not dead. They are, in fact, alive but only those blessed with discerning minds can comprehend lives of martyrs. Hadrat Imam Hussain’s (A.S) martyrdom is source of life for Islam. It is a process of sacrifice that started with Hadrat Ismaeel (A.S) and culminated in Hadrat Imam Hussain’s (A.S) martyrdom. Hadrat Imam Hussain (A.S) saved Islam till doomsday by sacrificing his life. Hadrat Sultan Bahoo (R.A) in his book “Eye of Faqr” states that the Karbala was a struggle between the followers of lust and followers of truth. Love for materialism breeds lust. Hadrat Imam Hussain (A.S) and his companions suffered persecution at the hands of Yazeed and his followers for opposing their worldly lust and for raising voice for truth. In the prevailing scenario, we also need thought and passion of Hadrat Imam Hussain (A.S) to make all kind of sacrifices for supporting truth. We should abide by truth and always stand for it as did Hadrat Imam Hussain (A.S).
