Call To Ummah: ‘Karbala teaches lesson of humanity’

PESHAWAR: Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Pervez Khattak urged upon the people to keep unity and harmony among their rank and said that the Karbala tragedy envisaged a great lesson for the humanity, especially for Muslims, to observe tolerance and preach unity. In his message on the Asshura Day, the chief minister said that Karbala was in fact a war between the right and wrong, wherein the supreme sacrifice rendered by Hazrat Imam Hussain (RA) for the right cause and glory of Islam would be remembered for good. Khattak said that the Karbala incident teaches people to demonstrate the spirit of love with humanity, support the right and reject the wrong. “Following these principles could not only keep us united and revive the glory of Muslims, but could also lay solid foundation for durable peace in Pakistan and the world at large,” he added.
