Speech By: Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri
Description:
Shaykh ul Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir ul Qadri explains in this video that the message of Sayyiduna Imam Hussain (A.S) is not confined to any particular group, sect, or community; rather, it is a universal message of peace, justice, and brotherhood for all humanity and the nations of the world. Shaykh ul Islam clarifies that the true and enlightened face of Islam is the “Message of Peace” demonstrated by Imam Husayn (A.S) at Karbala, a message that serves to remove the false stains of terrorism and extremism that have been wrongly associated with Islam. The lecture further explains that Yazid undermined the democratic and consultative system established by Islam and laid the foundations of dictatorship, corruption, and hereditary monarchy. Imam Hussain’s (A.S) stand against this system was, therefore, a struggle for the protection of human rights, justice, and political freedoms. In light of the Holy Quran, every human being possesses fundamental rights, including economic security as well as political and social freedom. Falsehood (Batil) is represented by any system that deprives people of their right to live with dignity and their freedom of expression and choice. Finally, the lecture emphasises that the true demand of Husayni thought in the modern age is to eradicate oppression, injustice, corruption, and the rule of exploiters from society, while restoring the rule of law, justice, and the values of humanity within the nation.
