Views
of MQI 25 Dec, 2006 25th December; is an auspicious, sacred and Day of Joy, for Muslims of the world in common, and very particular for the inhabitants of Pakistan. This Day, a very brilliant, brave and devoted Prophet Hazrat Issa (Alaissalam) came to the world to spread the light of the almighty and omnipresent Allah, and His Knowledge to the suppressed and humiliated mankind. The mischievous Israelea’s (Zionists) tried to hang them on cross, but the Almighty Allah, saved his Prophet and lifted him to the skies. Amongst thousands of prophets and messengers, he was the Second Last viz, before the Last Prophet Muhammad (SAW). |
