Gonabadi Dervishes commemorated Sacrifice Feast (Eid al-Adha)

 

 

On Aban 16, 1390 (November 07, 2011), Sacrifice Feast was commemorated in presence of His Holiness Mr. Hajj Doctor Noor Ali Tabandeh, Majzoob Ali Shah, the Honorable Qutb of Shah Nematollahi Gonabadi Sufi Order and with attendance of respectable Nematollahi Gonabadi Order’s sheikhs and authorized liturgists and myriads of Gonabadi Dervishes in Amir Soleimani Hosseinieh in Tehran.

 

According to Majzooban Noor website’s reporter, His Holiness Mr. Majzoob Ali Shah congratulating world’s Muslims on Sacrifice Feast delivered a speech and in a part of his words pointed to the veneration and respect of human rights. The following is an exact part of this speech:

“Regarding butchering animals, there are two groups of extravagant and negligent people; some don’t kill even petty animals and refuse killing, and the other part basically their portion and trade is killing people, not only killing animals, but also murdering people and homicide. Of course, perhaps they attach excuses to themselves, but people are creatures of God, should they kill God’s creatures? Whereas being good or bad, this creature is His artifact. Everyone is respectful and all humans are valuable because of being artifacts and creatures of our beloved God, and so are respectful to us. Even God teaching us, has instructed: not only to you as my creatures, but also it is a matter of great importance to myself: “we granted munificence to the humankind.”

It is remarkable that in parallel with this commemoration, other cities’ adherents and followers of Nematollahi Gonabadi Order celebrated this feast in Hosseiniehs of this Order.
