The Most Prestigious Custody baqavi | January 10, 2011 at 10:37 am | Categories: Current Affairs | URL: http://wp.me/pPuoE-lf It was really amazing. Millions stood witnessing it and a great number of people watched it live. One of the greatest moments of our time! Shaikh Ahmad Al Khazraji , son of former Minister of Islamic Affairs and Religious Endowments in the United Arab Emirates Shaikh Muhammad ibn Ahmad al-Khazraji declaring that he would hand over the most honoured custodianship of one of the Holy Hairs of the Beloved Messenger to Shaikh Aboobacker Ahmad Musliar – A charismatic leader and renowned scholar from India . al-Khazraji’ s assistant read out the entire lineage of that honor since it was first received by the companion of the Beloved Messenger. As we all know that the khazrajee is one of the two tribes of Al Ansar (the Supporters) who invited the Holy Prophet to Medina, and they have been holding this prestigious custody for centuries. An incredible moment it was. I’ve watched it breathtakingly, wondering why Shaikh Al Khazraji wants to do it. The answer came instantly form the dais that it was at the behest of the Holy Prophet (Peace and Blessing be upon Him). Oh’ God! We saw tears bursting out and ecstatic chanting from the spectators. “The God is Great!!!”. All were overwhelmed to see the Greatness of Shaik Aboobacker Ahmad (May Allah Prolong His Life). The event was in an auspicious event at Calicut, a historic city of southern India, at the 15th convocation and 33rd anniversary conference of Markaz Saqaafath Sunniyya.(Website Link) It was inaugurated by Dr. Ali Jumua , The Grand Mufti of Egypt in the Presence of Dr. Omar Abdulla Kamil from KSA and other national and international dignitaries. It was announced that on Monday 6th February 2011 the public will get access to see the sacred hair. May Almighty Allah join us all In His Haven in the company of Our Beloved Messenger, The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS).
