Laylatul Qadr, the Night of Power
SHAFAQNA- Amirul Momineen Imam Ali ibn Abi Taleb(A.S.) was martyred on 21st Ramazan 40 A.H. by an assassin who mortally wounded the Holy Imam(A.S.) with a poisoned sword in the Mosque at Kufah during morning prayers on 19th Ramazan 40 A.H.
Imam Ali (A.S.), the First Muslim, an intimate associate of the Holy
Prophet of Islam (S.A.W.) in the life and holy Islamic mission, the
Immediate Successor to the Holy Prophet of Islam (S.A.W.) and the First
Holy Immaculate Imam of the Shi’ites in the World was born inside the
Holy Kaaba at Makkah on Friday, the 13th day of Rajab, 600 A.D. It is an
undisputed fact that Imam Ali (A.S.) was born a Muslim. Imam Ali (A.S.)
is the only unique personality in the world who was born in the Holy
Kaaba and was martyred in the Kufah Mosque and was buried in the holy
city of Najaf-e-Ashraf (Iraq).
Regarding divine right of Imam Ali (A.S.) the Holy Prophet of Islam (S.A.W.) declared:
“Whomsoever I have authority over;Ali (A.S.) has also authority over
him, O Allah! Befriend whoever befriend him and be hostile to whosoever
is hostile to him”.
On this Sorrowful and Sad occasion of the Martyrdom Anniversary ofImam
Ali (A.S.) we extend our Heartfelt Condolences to the 1800 millions
strong Muslim Ummah.
This Auspicious Occasion also coincides with “The Nights of Honour and
Power”(Shab haye Qadr: 19th, 21st and 23rd nights of the Holy Month of
Ramazan) in which the fate of everyone is decided. We pray Allah
Almighty to grant forgiveness, salvation, deliverance, dignity and
prosperity to all the Muslims in the world.
