54th anniversary of the great freedom fighter of Indian Sub-Continent, founder of Majlis-e-Ahrar-e-Islam Syed Ata Ullah Shah Bukhari was celebrated yesterday. President of Majlis-e-Ahrar-e-Islam Pakistan Syed Ata ul Muhaimin Bukhari in Multan, Professor Khalid Shibbir Ahmad in Toba Take Singh, Secretary General of Majlis-e-Ahrar-e-Islam Abdul Latif Khalid Cheema in Chichawatni, Syed Muhammad Kafeel Bukhari in Sadiqabad, Maulana Muhammad Mugheerah in Chennab Nagar (Rabwah), Hafiz Zia Ullah Hashmi in Gujrat, Qari Muhammad Yousuf Ahrar and Qari Muhammad Qasim in Lahore, Maulana Peer Abuzar Ghifari in Islamabad, Mufti Ata ur Rehman Qureshi in Karachi, Dr. Umar Farooq and Maulana Tanveer ul Hassan Naqvi in Talagang are paid tribute to Syed Ata Ullah Shah Bukhari for his work for freedom and Khatm-e-Nubuwwat movement in his speeches. Syed Ata ul Muhaimin Bukhari said that the work for the cause of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat is our heritage. Abdul Latif Khalid Cheema said that Syed ata ullah shah bukhari’s great work for the unity of Muslims and he gathered all sects of ullema on common platform of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat. The President of the student chapter of Ahrar, Tehreek-e-Talba-e-Islam Pakistan Muhammad Qasim Cheema said that we should follow the teaching of tolerance, peace and harmony.

Here lies the unpopularity of the nationalist leaders. I have heard Syed Ata Ullah Shah Bukhari’s political lectures. The great speaker carries even the hostile audience with him. In the ecstasy of the moment, the people are so moved that drops of water trickle from their eyes, and they jump to their legs in an excited state of feeling. When this forceful orator says, “Freedom is our birthright. Muslims should get it at all costs,” the audience in one voice shrieks out, “Allah is great,” in approbation. When he says, “But this freedom cannot be attained without Hindu-Muslim unity,” the Muslim audience gives him a blank look. “Unity with those,” they say, “who treat us as untouchables is an impossible proposition.”
