KASHMIR PROTEST AGAINST THE DESTRUCTION OF GRAVE OF THE GREAT COMPANION (SAHABA)


Srinagar, May 10 (Only Kashmir): According to Only Kashmir sources received here protest rallies were held today in various parts of Srinagar Kashmir against the destruction of Grave of the great companion (Sahaba) of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), Shahid Hijr ibn Adi (Ra), in the outskirts of Damascus by Salafist groups. As reported earlier in one of the recent posts of Only Kashmir the body Shahid H
ijr ibn Adi (Ra), was extracted up and taken to an unknown location by Salafist groups. In this connection various protest rallies held today after Friday congregation prayers in various places of Srinagar. 
“Hijr ibn Adi was a pious companion of the Prophet (saw) and played a vital role in the correction of the Ummah. During Muawiyah’s reign when the custom of cursing Ali from the pulpit’s of Mosques began, hearts of the Muslims were being bled dry but people bit their tongues fearing death. In Kufa, Hijr ibn Adi could not remain silent and he began to praise Ali (as) and condemn Muawiyah. Until Mughira remained the Governor of Kufa, he adopted a lenient attitude towards this, but when Ziyad’s Governorship of Basra was extended to include Kufa, serious altercations arose. He would curse Ali (as) during the sermons and Hijr would refute him.(OK)
