Islamabad: A delegation led by Lok Virsa Executive Director Dr. Fouzia Saeed visited the shrine of Hazrat Lal Shahbaz Qalander to show solidarity with devotees and offer ‘Hazri’ on Friday in the wake of the recent suicide bombing. The delegation also included members of civil society.
Dr Fouzia Saeed said on the occasion that such cowardly attacks cannot shake up peoples’ faith in the message of Hazrat Lal Shahbaz Qalander as this is a message of peace and love. “We are here to show our solidarity with the victims of the blast and generally with the people of Sindh and assure them of our moral support” Dr. Fouzia Saeed said. She condemned the terrible incident and added that ‘Dhmal’ not only bring people together but has become a symbol of resistance for the whole country against extremists elements.
The delegation was heartened by the resilience of the followers of Hazrat Lal Shahbaz who performed ‘Dhmal’ and ‘Naubat’ and ‘Naqara’ was played after few hours of the blast. They gave a clear message that neither extremism can effect this affiliation nor it can create any negative effect in people’s heart. It was observed that an 8 kg bomb blasted right next to the shrine but it remained fully intact.
Hazrat Lal Shahbaz Qalander is revered by people irrespective of their religion, race and colour. The delegation will also be attending a cultural festival of Sindhialogy at Sindh University, Jamshoro.
