“Kya tamasha hua Islam ki taqdeer ke sath,
Qatal-e Shabeer(A.S) hua Nara-e Takbeer ke sath!”
-Allama Iqbal (R.A)
“What drama(tic disasters) occurred in the fate of Islam,
Shabeer(Hoseyn A.S.) was killed (by those) hailing for the Greatness (of God).”
-Allama Iqbal (R.A)
Does the new year brings “happy” sentiments by any chance?
Why since only a couple of years celebrating the new Islamic year started all of a sudden and out of nowhere?
Did this all happened just by a series of small coincidences throughout the world at the same time, making it all to become a miraculous grand coincidence. OR is it just another Nasibi’s latest propaganda with a Modern-Thought Celebration cover-up?!!!
To know, you need to do personal research & think unbiasedly and I assure you’ll then see how deep is the rabbit hole!
Celebrating new year is itself a western following and is more of a materialistic approach to it. Furthermore rather than happiness every new islamic year only reminds of the Great Sacrifice of Prophet’s(S) Grandson in the tragic incident of Karbala and its hideous aftermath. It calls us to help the oppressed and strive hard against all atrocities to maintain Allah’s Justice, Charity & Prudence among His creation. This is the ideology of Imam Hoseyn ibn Ali(Alayhis Salaam) and is the road to Divine “Happiness” in the
Hereafter.
“Ronay wala hoon Shaheed-e-Karbala kay gham may mayn,
Kya durrey maqsood na daingay SÄqi-e-Kauthar* mujhey.”
-Allama Iqbal (R.A)
“I’m going to shed tears upon the sufferings of Karbala’s Mayrtr(Maula Hoseyn A.S.),
Will not then the Lord of Kauthar(Maula Ali A.S.) reward me with Jewel of Salvation.”
-Allama Iqbal (R.A)
*Saqi-e-Kauthar (Lord of Kauthar; literally) is a Laqab (لقب‎) of Maula Ali ibn Abi Talib(A.S.) given by Prophet Muhammad(S). Kauthar is a Cistern in Paradise through which only the successful ones, i.e. the people of Paradise, will drink.
“The comforts and luxuries of the world and its sweet life, make the hereafter bitter and bearing the bitter tastes of the world makes the everlasting life sweet.”-The Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (S) , Biharul Anwar, vol. 1
