త్యాగనిరతికి, సహనానికి మొహర్రం ప్రతీక!

రాష్ట్ర వ్యాప్తంగా ముస్లింలు, హిందువులూ కలిసి నిర్వహించే 'పీర్ల' ఊరేగింపు తెలంగాణ ప్రజలమధ్య సఖ్యతను, ఐక్యతను, గంగా-జమునా తెహజీబ్ ను చూపే సందర్భం!#Muharram pic.twitter.com/bRVcaQrbN7

Chief Minister KCR said in a message that irrespective of religion, Muharram gives the message of unity, brotherhood and ‘Ganga-Jamuna Tezjeeb’ between Hindu and Muslim communities.

Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan, in her message, noted that Muharram symbolizes the spirit of sacrifice which is placed above all the virtues of mankind.

Muharram commemorates the martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain, the grandson of the Holy Prophet, who sacrificed his life at the altar of true belief, she said.

“Remembrance of graciousness and sacrifice is the true meaning of Muharram. Let us emulate the spirit of Muharram which embodies humanism which is central to Islam. The ideals of sacrifice, peace, and justice of Muharram may continue to inspire us,” she added.
