CM pays glowing tributes to Karbala martyrs
The 10th Muharram (Ashoora) would be observed across Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday. The Shia Muslims would be taking out Ashoora processions in different parts of J&K including Srinagar.
For the last few years, authorities have been allowing traditional Ashoora processions in the Valley.
On the 9th day of Muharram, the Shia mourners took out a procession in Dal Lake. The mourners boarded shikaras to form a floating procession steeped in emotion, reverence, and heritage.
The shikhara procession began from Mir Behri (inner Dal Lake) and concluded at Kaenkech, Rainawari, with rows of boats moving in unison, their occupants reciting elegies and weeping in memory of Imam Hussain (RA) and the martyrs of Karbala.
Meanwhile, Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha recalled the sacrifices made by Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS).
In his message, the Lieutenant Governor said, “The sacrifices of Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS) and his companions at Karbala, and their steadfast commitment to the universal ideals of justice and human dignity continue to inspire humanity to uphold the values of unity, social harmony and righteousness.”
“On this solemn occasion, let us imbibe the eternal ideals of Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS) and rededicate ourselves to build a just and equitable society,” he said.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah also paid solemn tribute to Imam Hussain (AS) and the revered martyrs of Karbala, describing their unparalleled sacrifice as a timeless beacon of courage, steadfastness and resistance in face of trials.
In his message on occasion of Ashura, the CM said the tragedy of Karbala is not just a historical incident, but a moral lesson for all humanity.
He said Imam Hussain (AS), the beloved grandson of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), upheld the highest principles of truth, dignity and justice, choosing martyrdom over submission to injustice.
“Imam Hussain’s stand at Karbala inspires generations to stand firm against falsehood and uphold human dignity, even in the face of brutal repression. His legacy belongs to all, transcending sects, regions and eras,” the CM said.
Omar said the values of sacrifice, patience, and truthfulness, embodied by Imam Hussain (AS), are particularly relevant today when societies face moral and social challenges.
He urged the people to reflect on the message of Karbala and renew their commitment to principles of justice, equality and peaceful coexistence.
The Chief Minister expressed solidarity with all those commemorating Ashura and the sacred memory of Karbala and called upon the administration to ensure smooth and peaceful observance of Muharram-related events across Jammu and Kashmir.
He also extended prayers for peace, harmony, and the well-being of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
