Juloos-e-Amaari, Nauha by Abbas Rizvi

The video clip is of the Nauha recited by a youth Janab Abbas Rizvi s/o of Janab Mukhtar Rizvi. Abbas Rizvi started reciting nauhas since last 3 years. He is one of the best solo nauha reciter in and around Allahabad. The best part of his nauha recitation is that he recites sorrowful nauhas which were penned down more than 40/50 years. He was inspired by Mr. Jaddan who was very famous in 60s & 70s in Allahabad district. The nauha he has recited in this clip is on the day of Juloos-e-Amaari on 5th March 2008 in Karari. It was very popular 3 decades ago. May Allah give taufeeq to Abbas Rizvi so that he gives his maximum service in the azadaari of Imam Husain (a.s.).

A Request for Namaaz-e-Wahshat

My mother-in-law, the wife of Maulana Sayed Mohammad Ali Asif Zaidi, the vice-president of Tanzeemul Makatib passed away at 1.20 am last night in Meeruth City, UP. She was critically ill for a few days. The burial will take place at village Ghazipur, District Muzaffar Nagar, UP, after the namaaz of Zohr today.
You are requested to perform namaaz-e-Wahshat after the maghrib namaaz. The deceased name is marhuma Sayyeda Ishtiyaq Fatema d/o Sayed Alamdar Husain.
For condolence, contact: 09927069986 or 09719633559
How to perform namaaz-e-Wahshat?
It is Mustahab that on the day of the burial on this night between Maghrib and Isha one should recite two rak'ats prayer. This is known as Namaz-e-Wahshat because for the dead person the most horrifying and difficult is the first night. In the first rak'at after Surah Hamd recite Ayatul Kursi and in the second rak'at after Surah Hamd recite Surah Qadr 10 times. After finishing the prayers mention the name of the dead person and gift her the Sawab of this namaaz.
Fazeelat of Namaz-e-Wahshat:
Shaykh Thiqatul Islam Noori has narrated directly from Fath Ali Sultanabadi that he says he had the habit that whenever he heard of the death of a family member or a friend he would pray two rak'ats prayer of the night of burial and gift the Sawab. "No one knew about this practice of mine. One day I met a friend. He said: Last night I had a dream in which I saw a person who had died that day. I asked him about his well being and inquired about the conditions after death. He said that after my death I was in a terrible difficulty because my deeds were very bad. Till the time this person recited two rak'at prayer. And he mentioned your name. This two rak'at Namaaz saved me from the punishment. May Allah have mercy on the parents of this person who did this favour to me. Marhum Haajj Mulla said: At this time the person asked me what that prayer was? I explained to him the method of this prayer and those things that are beneficial to the dead ones. They are as follows:
1) In order to be safe from the Wahshat-e-Qabr (terror of the grave) one should perform the ruku properly. Thus it is related from Imam Baqir (a.s.) that one who performs the ruku properly does not have terror in the grave.
2) Recite "Laa ilaaha illallaahul Malikul haqqul Mubeen" a hundred times daily. One who recites this is safe from poverty and terror of the grave and affluence pulls him towards itself and the doors of Paradise open up for him.
3) Recite Surah Yasin before going to bed.
4) Recite Namaz-e-Lailatul Raghaib which is mentioned in the A'maal of Rajab on the eve of the first Friday of the month of Rajab. It is narrated from Imam Sadiq (a.s.) that whenever there is narrowness and severity on the dead body the Almighty widens his/her grave and removes the narrowness and says that this widening is because you had recited Namaz-e-Wahshat for such and such believer.

Marhuma Tafseer Fatema Laid to Rest

In the soil of Karbala, Karari, Marhuma Tafseer Fatema (Razia Aapa) was laid to rest at 3.30 pm. today. Her children were inconsolable as they adored her very much. She had concentrated on their upbringing. The eldest son Shirazi (hearing impaired) was very close to her and is in his prime youth. Its a great loss for Subban bhai and his family. She never missed her prayers, fasts and other wajibaat. A lady with great akhlaaq. Do not miss for her the Namaaz-e-Wahshat tonight after Maghrib prayers. Marhuma Tafseer Fatema d/o Sayed Nasir Husain. May Allah enhance her status in the Hereafter and account her among one of the best lover of Ahlul Bayt (a.s.).

Cyber Cafe in Karari

Karari is going hi tech. After the establishment of Rizvi College, this town has seen stupendous progress. After the bifurcation of Allahabad, a new district was carved out of it and was named Koshambi. The current UP CM Mayawati has been generous to this baby district. Many development schemes are in progress. The Karari Loksabha constituency and Assembly (reserved seats) always sent a SC/ST candidate to the parliament and state assembly, but, these elected candidates worked for their own personal development and nothing for this town which is 14 kms away from railway station (Bharwari). It was the effort of Dr. Akhtar Hasan Rizvi, who utilised his MP (Rajya Sabha) fund to change the face of this town with new roads, electricity, huge educational complex etc.

Few months ago a Cyber Cafe was inaugurated at Ambahi, now called as Naya Nagar. This Cafe is run by Zia & Asfi, who sell home appliances, building material, hardware, electrical and other products. These brothers have rented about 8 shops in the Zainab Villa complex. Both the brothers are hardworking and very humble.

The facility to chat and email has given the Kararians to be in touch with their relatives and friends all over the world.

Majlis in Malad, Malony

A Majlis was arranged by the NRKs (non-Residents of Kararvis) in Malad, Malony (Bombay) on the occasion of the 12 death anniversary of marhum Sayed Ghulam Hasnain Rizvi. It was recited by Maulana Zafar Abbas saheb who is the Pesh Imam of plot no. 5 Imambada. He spoke on the wives of the Prophets (a.s.) and the eiman of Hazrat Abu Talib (a.s.).
The Majlis started at 9.00 pm and continued till 9.40 pm.

After Majlis a discussion took place that due to price rise of the essential commodities, the sponsors are not coming forward to host Iftar. Various suggestions came up by the believers who were present. Hosting Iftar for a day costs approx. Rs. 3500/- and a single person cannot contribute such a big amount. So they usually share. But, there are poor people who want to participate with a small amount of Rs. 100/- or Rs. 200/-. For such small contributers this paltry amount with sincere intention is very great, so a donation box can be put up for the Iftar during the month of Ramadhan. This may be successful and money can be collected for at least 3/4 days Iftar. All the believers present agreed to this suggestion and was decided that very soon an Iftar Donation Box will be put up at Imambada.
Not a bad IDEA.

12th death anniversary of marhum Sayed Ghulam Hasnain Kararvi

Remembering marhum Sayed Ghulam Hasnain Rizvi Kararvi (taaba saraah) on his 12th death anniversary, a majlis has been organised by Zainabia Trust, at Zainabia, Mumbai-9. on Saturday, 6th of September 2008. The majlis will be recited by Hujjatul Islam Maulana Sayed Hasnain Kararvi at 6.00 pm. Marhum Ghulam Hasnain was one of the trustees of Zainabia Trust. He was editor of Al-Muntazar magazine published by Association of Imam Mahdi (a.s.). He was also the co-founder of Association of Imam Mahdi (a.s.) along with marhum Agha Ismail Rajabi (taaba saraah). He translated the persian books/booklets written by marhum Agha Ismail Rajabi (taaba saraah) into urdu language and published through Idara-e-Nashre Uloom-e-Aal-Mohammad (s.a.w.), Moghul Masjid. Marhum Sayed Ghulam Hasnain (taaba saraah) translated more than 250 Persian books/booklets and unaccounted articles for Association into Urdu language. He taught Urdu language to the students of Najafi House Hawza, Jamae Amirul Mo'mineen and mentored his students to become a good Aalim-e-deen. He always tried to bring out best from the youths and always guided and encouraged them. He polished the Urdu language of his colleagues and even to his elders. For example one of his best friend -Sayed Mohammad Akbar Rizvi- two years elder to him, and the current editor of al-Muntazar magazine proudly says that marhum was his teacher and calls him ustad-e-mohtaram.
Dr. Akhtar Hasan Rizvi (Rizvi Builders) still feels his absence, the sad demise of Marhum Sayed Ghulam Hasnain (taaba saraah) was a great loss for him as he always consulted him in religious matters. It was marhum who insisted Dr. Rizvi to establish a college at his native place (Karari). Today the Rizvi College at Karari stands taller in 4/5 Districts around Allahabad with more than 5 faculties and a modern English medium school.
Marhum's love for Imam Mahdi (atfs) was profound. After a hectic tour of eastern Uttar Pradesh, holding exhibitions and functions, celebrating the birth of Imam-e-Zamana (a.s.) in January 1996 during the holy month of Sha'ban, (Kanpur was his last city) he breathed his last at Lucknow and was buried in his home town Karari, beside his father marhum Amir Ali ibne Roshan Ali. He was just 62 years of age. After his burial in his ancestral graveyard, the graveyard was renamed as Waadis Salaam.
Marhum Sayed Ghulam Hasnain (taaba saraah) never believed in groupism among the Mo'mineen. He brought the people together. He organised the Moharram Majalis in Karari which previously clashed with each other. Still the Majalis are held as per the time table arranged by him during his life time.
His Sewwom (majlis on 3rd day after burial) was read by Hujjatul Islam Maulana Ahmed Ali Abedi sb. A night before Chehlum by Maulana Mehmoodul Hasan of Jaunpur. The Chehlum Majlis by Maulana Mirza Mohammad Athar Sb. Same evening of Chehlum another Majlis was read by Hujjatul Islam Sayed Safi Haider Sb at his grave in Waadis Salaam.
He left behind we 4 bros. and 3 sisters. Janab Ainur Reza Rizvi is his eldest son in law, Hujjatul Islam Maulana Sayed Hasnain Kararvi is second son in law and Prof. Nazar Abbas is his youngest son in law.
His only brother Janab Sayed Ghulam Sibtain Rizvi is living in Karari and is a scholar himself. He now manages Amjadia Madrasa after his retirement. He is a good khushnawees (calligrapher) and was a Marsiya recitor during his younger days.
Marhum was very kind and loving. His pen name was "Shafeeq." He very much loved his home town and he wrote after his name as Kararvi. Hujjatul Islam Sayed Mohammad al-Musavi always referred to him "Janab Kararvi Saheb."
May Almighty Allah elevates his position in the Hereafter. I personally feel that during the time of the re-appearance of Imam Mahdi (a.s.) he will come out from his grave wrapped in Kafan, holding a sword in his hand as one of his (atfs) helpers. InshaAllah.
I request you a Sura-e-Fateha for his departed soul.

The First Baker of Karari

Janab Manzoor Hasan, known as Nabban bhai was the first person to start a bakery in Karari about 30 years ago. There was no electricity at that time. No marketing strategies. No bank support. No elderly and experienced personality to guide him. No support by the community to monopolise his products. No pat on the back for encouragment. WHY?
Because, everyone believed in getting a safe and secure public service, thought to be mantra of stable monthly salary, a good pension and a sound family life. The father of the bride also searched for his to be son-in-law to be one of the public servants.
So, going for a business was not encouraged. No risk to be taken. So, no future of prosperous community. Everyone wanted to go for his own self.
Nabban bhai's business has been stagnant, no growth. Just satisfied with his current status. Fixed clients. Daily effort. It is exclusively labour, not tejarat.
So, what is the LESSON? Find out and share with readers. For the generation next.
