Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus called for equality and justice during his Ashura message. He wants Muslim communities around the world to stay united and keep making progress together. The professor said brave Islamic fighters who stood against unfair rulers will always inspire people. Their sacrifice teaches everyone to fight back when powerful people treat others badly. Sunday marks the holy day across Bangladesh with religious ceremonies and prayer gatherings.
Ashura remembers when Imam Hussain died fighting evil forces many centuries ago. The Prophet Muhammad's grandson refused to bow down to corrupt leader Yazid. Hussain brought his family and 72 brave followers to the Karbala desert for their final battle. Enemy soldiers killed all of them on the tenth day of Muharram in Islamic year 61. This tragic event happened because Hussain wanted to protect true Islamic teachings from being destroyed.
Yunus praised Islam as a religion that promotes truth and peaceful living. He reminded people that Ashura ranks among the most important days for Muslims everywhere. The Chief Adviser mentioned that Prophet Muhammad encouraged believers to fast during this special time. Religious books suggest people should fast for two days to show their devotion properly. Yunus urged citizens to perform more good actions and move closer to God during this blessed period.
