8 Shawwal - The Tragedy of Al-Baqi

In The Name of Allah The Beneficent, The Merciful.

“They desire to put out the light of Allah with their mouths, and Allah will not consent save to perfect His light, though the unbelievers are averse”
(Holy Qur’an – 9:32- Repentance)

On 8 Shawwal, 1344 A.H. (April 21, 1925), the evil hands of Wahabis, with the help of Abdul Aziz Aal S'aud who is one of Saudi Arabia rulers, have extended and dared to attack and demolish one of the holiest shrines and mosques in the world, the shrine of Imam Al-Hassan AlMujtaba (AS), Imam Ali Zaynul Abideen (AS), Imam Muhammed Al-Baqir (AS), and Imam Ja'far Al-Sadiq (AS). In the same year, the Saudi government allowed and gave permission to Wahabis to demolish other mausoleums, like the mausoleums and shrines of the holy prophet Muhammed (PBUH) mother, wife, grandfather, and other ancestors. Also, they managed to erase the signs and demolish shrines of 200 companions and Sahabahs of prophet Muhammed (PBUH&HF). The Saudi government banned Muslims from reestablishing the shrines from that time till today.

We send our condolences to the living Hujjah, the twelfth Imam, Imam Muhammed Al-Mahdi (AS) on this miserable and unfortunate event that occurred in the shrines of his grandfathers. We ask Almighty Allah to hasten the reappearance of Imam Al-Mahdi (AS) to fill this world with justice as it is filled now with injustice.

Also, we send our condolences to our righteous scholars and Ulama and to the World on this tragedy and attack to the holy sites and shrines in Al-Baqee' Cemetery in Al-Madina Al-Munawwarah, Saudi Arabia.

We call the world to condemn this evil attack that caused the destruction of the holy shrine of Imam Al-Hassan AlMujtaba (AS), Imam Ali Zaynul Abideen (AS), Imam Muhammed Al-Baqir (AS), and Imam Ja'far Al-Sadiq (AS) in Al-Madina Al-Munawwara, Saudi Arabia, and ask the United Nations to allow Muslims to reestablish the shrine in Al-Madina Al-Munawwara, take the matter seriously, and put it on the top of their priorities list.

We urge all Muslims to follow the instructions of the senior-most religious authority (Al-Marji'iyyah Al-Diniyyah) always, especially during these turbulent times.

Finally and most importantly, this direct attack emphasizes the need for the Muslim community to adhere to the advice of Imam Ali (p) in his last words where he urged for excelling in piety and organization of affairs.

 

The Holy Qur’an testifies

“and they devised plans and Allah too had arranged a plan; and Allah is the best of planners”.

 

Please don't forget us from your prayers
