MAJOR H. H. MEHTAR
SIR MOHAMMED NASIR-UL-MULK
K.C.I.E.
Ruler of Chitral
“It gives me
very great pleasure to know that “Husein Day” is being observed throughout
India in commemoration of the Sacrifice and Martyrdom of Hazarat Imam Husein at
Kerbala 1300 years ago. This selfless sacrifice at the altar of Truth and
Religion in face of such overwhelming odds is without parallel in the history
of mankind.
Many great
authors have written much on the Philosophy and greatness of this incomparable
martyrdom and yet this cannot be all.
Khwaja
Moinuddin Chisti has spoken in respect of the Martyr as the very foundation of
the Unity of Allah and as the great defender of the Faith. It is beyond my
power to add anything.” - Mohammad
Nasirulmulk
