Shah I Hamadan (RA) taught us lessons of Tawheed: Malik

Srinagar: Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) chairman, Muhammad Yasin Malik on Tuesday said that Shah I Hamadan (RA) taught us the lessons of Tawheed, God-fearing, self-confidence, self-respect and freedom.
Malik while speaking to a mammoth gathering at Khankah-I-Moa’lla Srinagar today on Urs of shah-I-Hamadan said that “the great spiritual saint not only led us on holy front but brought a revolution in our economic and social life also.”
“The personality we are today remembering taught us self- respect and led this nation to an economic freedom. For qualities like these, Alama Iqbal remembered him with the title of ‘Salar-I-Ajam’, “ he said.
Malik said that “today when enemies of Islam and humanity have unleashed a war on us, we Kashmiris need to adhere to holy teachings of great predecessors like Shah I Hamadan and remain steadfast against falsehood, illegal occupation, tyranny and oppression.”
“If Kashmiris want to transform their lives and change their destiny, they will have to move close to these great people and follow the teachings of these noble souls in letter and spirit,” he said.
While condemning the ongoing reign of terror throughout Kashmir valley especially in south and North Kashmir, Malik said that Indian army, Police, SOG and other forces have unleashed worst kind of terror throughout Kashmir valley.
“People without the discrimination of age and gender are being beaten and tortured, nocturnal raids, crackdown and arrests have become an order of the day,” he said, adding that all this terror has been unleashed to put people into submission and finish their resistance against tyranny and occupation.
JKLF chairman said that today thousands of young and old including children and women are suffering in various jails and police stations.
He said that from an 80 year old man to 10 year old minor and ladies like Syeda Asiya Andrabi have been put in jails under black law PSA. “From Tihar jail to various jails in Jammu Kashmir, thousands are suffering at the hands on Indians because of their political belief and because they are asking for their democratic right of self-determination. What can be more unlawful than the act of suppressing a people’s voice by military and police might,” he said.
Terming NIA raids, arrests, investigations and intimidations as ‘politically motivated’ acts, Malik said that kith and kin, friends and associates, sons and daughters and brothers and sisters of resistance leadership are being raided, questioned, grilled, tortured and terrorized in a bit to excrete some desired information and malign whole resistance and the leadership.
He said that this reign of terror is intended only to weaken and finish Kashmiri resistance but rulers and their agencies should remember the fact that till now no nation striving for its freedom has ever been defeated by such mean tactics and acts of tyranny.
Malik said that despite all these Indian ploys and conspiracies, this people’s resistance will continue and no stone will be left unturned to take the blood soaked struggle of Kashmiris to its desired goal.
Meanwhile, JKLF delegation led by its organizer Siraj ud Din Mir today visited Qazipora Tangmarg and participated in congregational prayer meeting for martyr Mushtaq Ahmad Malik @ Babar and Martyr Saleem who embraced martyrdom in 1991.
