Khateeb of Ahl-us-Sunnah added more, \u2018Observing fast was obligatory in all divine religions; it has a major role in reforming people spiritually. The main aim of this worship is to let mankind to reach Allah Almighty. It is important to know that there should be a correct path for achieving this goal. After the prophet hood of Prophet Mohammad, peace & blessings be upon him, imitating Holy Qur\u2019an and Sunnah is the only way to approach Allah.\u2019<\/p>\n

He further said that all vital worships like prayers, fasting, Zakah were obligations in previous religions although manners were different. Observing fast, Sawm is one of those worships that make people pious. It controls the ego of people forbidding them from illegal deeds. Sawm enables people to overcome their contumacy and inciting inner self. <\/p>\n

The eminent Islamic scholar put Ramadan the month of Qur\u2019an underlining, \u2018There is a close connection between Ramadan and Qur\u2019an; Ramadan is the month of Qur\u2019an. Holy Qur\u2019an was revealed in Ramadan. Allah says: \u00ab\u0634\u064e\u0647\u0652\u0631\u064f \u0631\u064e\u0645\u064e\u0636\u064e\u0627\u0646\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0651\u064e\u0630\u0650\u064a\u064e \u0623\u064f\u0646\u0632\u0650\u0644\u064e \u0641\u0650\u064a\u0647\u0650 \u0627\u0644\u0652\u0642\u064f\u0631\u0652\u0622\u0646\u064f \u0647\u064f\u062f\u064b\u0649 \u0644\u0651\u0650\u0644\u0646\u0651\u064e\u0627\u0633\u0650 \u0648\u064e\u0628\u064e\u064a\u0651\u0650\u0646\u064e\u0627\u062a\u064d \u0645\u0651\u0650\u0646\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0652\u0647\u064f\u062f\u064e\u0649 \u0648\u064e\u0627\u0644\u0652\u0641\u064f\u0631\u0652\u0642\u064e\u0627\u0646\u0650 \u0641\u064e\u0645\u064e\u0646 \u0634\u064e\u0647\u0650\u062f\u064e \u0645\u0650\u0646\u0643\u064f\u0645\u064f \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0651\u064e\u0647\u0652\u0631\u064e \u0641\u064e\u0644\u0652\u064a\u064e\u0635\u064f\u0645\u0652\u0647\u064f\u00bb\u060c (The month of Ramadan is the one in which the Qur\u2018an was revealed as guidance for mankind.) So recite Holy Qur\u2019an as much as you can. Listen to Qur\u2019an in Tarawih prayers; it makes the hearts rich in the guidance and love of Allah cleaning them from dust.\u2019<\/p>\n

He went on to say that Ramadan was the month of sympathy; in this month people bear thirst and hunger to feel what the poor people endure. Ramadan is the season of worship and goodness. According to a Hadith, an angel calls in Ramadan to people: \u00ab\u06cc\u0627 \u0628\u0627\u063a\u06cc \u0627\u0644\u062e\u06cc\u0631 \u0623\u0642\u0628\u0644 \u0648 \u06cc\u0627 \u0628\u0627\u063a\u06cc \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0631 \u0623\u0642\u0635\u0631\u00bb, O seeker of the goodness hurry up! And O seeker of badness! Leave sins and misdeeds in this month. Misdeeds abrogate the fruits of fasting. Everybody should avoid backbiting, telling lie, abuse and all other sins. This month should be free of misdeeds.<\/p>\n

Khateeb of Ahl-us-Sunnah urged on utilizing \u201clegal aliment\u201d and avoiding \u201cgluttony\u201d and sleeping a lot in Ramadan saying, \u2018Strive to eat Halal aliment in Ramadan. Break the fast by legal and Halal food. It plays an important role in upbringing and the health of inner side of people. Do not eat more than need and avoid sleeping all the time, worship Allah instead of sleeping without need. This is the month of making Du\u2019a, pray to Allah for guidance and reformation of people and their protection from fitna and oppression of cruel rulers.

People\u2019s pleasure strengthens unity<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pointing out towards the reinstatement order of the Supreme Leader for his representative in Sistan-Baluchistan, Shaikh Abdol-Hameed stated, \u2018Both Sunnis and Shias have problems in this province; due some reasons Sunni citizens have more problems and difficulties. Mr. Soleimani, the representative of the Supreme Leader should work hard to resolve their matters as much as he is authorized.\u2019<\/p>\n

He emphasized saying that by getting the pleasure of people unity can be strengthened. The Sunni community in Sistan-Baluchistan and other provinces has been facing national and religious problems. Observing the ongoing movements across the Middle East, the authorities must show seriousness to solve the crises and pay more attention to complaints of masses. Many of despots, seeing their imminent fate may regret over blunders they made. <\/p>\n

At the end of his speech, Shaikh Ismaeelzahi asked the security forces and Police to be more vigilant while so called \u2018clean-up crack downs\u2019 in the city. Many complaints have been received from people that police had behaved them abusively. Displeasure of people has bad affects for all. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
