Srinagar: In a special message on the Youm-e-Ashura, National Conference President Dr. Farooq Abdullah has said that the ultimate sacrifice of Hazrat Imam Husayn (RA) was a beacon of light for Muslims and for the glory of Islam. Dr. Farooq Abdullah said that Hazrat Imam Husayn (RA)s martyrdom gave Muslims a timeless lesson and example in patience, sacrifice and courage and needs to be honored by striving for unity in the Muslim Ummah.

Dr. Farooq Abdullah in his message has said that the message from Karbala that will resonate till eternity is that of faith and justice and the struggle of Imam Husayn (RA) for the cause of Islam and peace. Wherever there will be injustice and repression in the world, the people would remember the sacrifice and martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Husayn (RA) and take inspiration from it.

This fight of justice against injustice will continue till the Day of Judgment and will always end with an indomitable victory for truth and honor, Dr. Farooq Abdullah said.
