Salaamun 'Alaykum,
Commemorating Yaum e Gham / 8th Shawwal - September 7, 2011
History has not seen a more perverse ideology and man-made set of beliefs than that of the Wahhabi persuasion. Founded over 200 years ago, their physical reign over the nation of Islam’s sacred sites in Mecca and Medina and of present, over the hearts and minds of millions of Muslims, has proved to be one of extremism and tyranny for those who do not subscribe to their man-made religion on many fronts.
For the followers of the Prophet Muhammad and his Ahlul Bait (peace be upon them all) – the true followers of Islam – this cancer within the Islamic community perpetrated one of the sickest crimes in the year 1925 with the destruction of the graveyard of Al-Baqi in Medina, in present day Saudi Arabia.
This graveyard, which houses the graves of the wives of the Prophet, many of his companions, his infant son Ibrahim and most importantly, four of the Divinely appointed leaders of the community was desecrated and levelled to the ground on the 8th of Shawwal in the year 1345 AH (April 21, 1925)
Historians narrate that over seven thousand companions of the Prophet, in addition to Imam Hasan bin Ali, Imam Ali bin Husain, Imam Muhammad bin Ali, and Imam Ja'far bin Muhammad (peace be upon all of them) are also buried in this graveyard which the Prophet himself would visit on a regular basis!
The followers of the Wahhabi sect continued their rampage in Jannatul Mu`alla in Mecca in which Hazrat Abu Talib, Khadijah binte Khuwaylid (peace be upon them both) and other noble personalities are buried! They were successful in destroying the graves and their markers, and this would have continued in Madina at the grave of the Prophet had it not been for the strong opposition by the Muslim world (and perhaps due to those who are buried beside the Prophet).
May Allah hasten the return of our Awaited Imam to fill the Earth with justice and to restore the honour and glory which these historical sites once enjoyed.
