Ziyarat in Shaam

Shaikh Mustafa Abdulhussein

Preamble

Allah Ta`ala has bestowed Al-Dai al-Asr, Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin Saheb (TUS) with the glory and honour of all Hudat Kiram (SA). In enlivening the amr of Aimmat Tahirin (SA) and Duat Mutlaqin (AQ), Allah Ta`ala has granted excellence to Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (TUS) and his predecessor Syedna Taher Saifuddin (AQ). Due to their efforts, the redeeming barakat of the inheritance of Hudat Kiram (SA) have reached the hearts of mumineen, mu`minat and their children.

In 1355H/1935, Syedna Taher Saifuddin (AQ), accompanied by his heir apparent Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (TUS) visited Syria and performed ziyarat of the holy sites for the first time.

In 1412H/1992, Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (TUS) went to Syria and performed the ziyarat of Maqam Ras al-Husain (SA) and Maqam Ru`us al-Shuhada. At that time, with the ilham of Allah Ta`ala and His Wali (SA), he declared his intention to fashion new zarihs for both blessed sites.

The government of Syria was pleased with this decision. The zarihs were made in Karachi in a short time. After Ashara mubaraka in East Africa, Huzurala (TUS) arrived in Karachi to supervise the completion of the zarihs. With much happiness, he declared:

"These zarihs are now ready and will soon reach their home in Sham, Insha Allah. We shall go to Sham to perform ziyarat and kiss them there. The zarihs are beautiful and pleasant and when installed, will be even more radiant and admirable".

On Milad al-Nabi (SAW), the zarihs were loaded from Karachi amidst veneration and recitals and reached Sham on the same day.

Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (TUS) arrived in Syria to perform the iftetah ceremony of the two zarihs in Dimashq and the iftetah of ziyarat and masjid of Aimmat (SA) in Salmiyya; both on the occasion of salgirah mubarak of Imam al-Zaman (SA). During the iftetah of zarih mubarak of Maqam Ras al-Husain (SA), Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (TUS) said:

"Due to this, our khidmat of Imam Husain (SA), mumineen will be the recipients of much barakat in their souls and homes"
