STORY OF LOVE


STORY OF LOVE AND LABOUR OF LOVE FROM MINARET OF MIR MUHAMMAD MASOOM SHAH BAKHRI TO TAJ MAHAL
We know much about Taj Mahal. It is said that the Taj Mahal was commissioned by Shah Jahan in 1631, to be built in the memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal, a Persian Princess who died giving birth to their 14th child, Gauhara Begum. Construction of the Taj Mahal began in 1632. The imperial court documenting Shah Jahan's grief after the death of Mumtaz Mahal illustrate the love story held as the inspiration for Taj Mahal. The principal mausoleum was completed in 1643 and the surrounding buildings and garden were finished about five years late
Whereas, we are told that Minaret of Masoom Shah was commissioned by Mir Muhammad Masoom Shah Bakhri also known as Syed Nizamuddin Mir Muhammad Masoom Shah was a sixteenth-century Sindhi-muslim historian, physician and pharmacist from Bakhar, Sindh (modern-day Pakistan). He is known for writing a history of Sindh, Tarikh-i-Sind (also known as, Tarikh i Masumi, after the author), published in ca 1600. He was also a trusted lieutenant of the Mughal Emperor Akbar. In around 1595 he led Akbar's army in a battle against the Baluch stronghold of Sibi in Northwest Quetta, resulting in Baluchistan being annexed into the Mughal Empire. Subsequently, in 1598, he was appointed the governor of Sind and Sibi by Akbar.
Why he decided for construction Minaret at Sukkur city? Eminent Philosopher and Social Reformer Dayaram Gidumanl in his book “Something about Sindh” merits love story is a cause of construction of Minaret. He writes “The legend, as I have heard it, gains, at least, more consistency and coherence, by ascribing an adherent affection to Masoom Shah himself for a beautiful Hindu Lady. The lady refused to wed Mahommedan, but, finding the lover persistent to a troublesome degree, enjoined him the then Herculean task of building this Minaret of 200 feet high.
“He further writes that after the construction of the Minaret, “Accordingly, the next day, Mausam is climbing the winding the marmorean staircase of his own handiwork, to do her bidding. He reaches the terminal dome let and throws himself headlong down-a martyr to love. The care-taker of his tomb, however, assures me, that Mausam was not hurt at all by his prodigious fall- a super-human hand kept him from harm’s way and landed him safe on the solid ground”.
Therefore we can say that commissioning and construction of Taj Mahal at Agra and Minaret of Masoom Shah at Sukkur have wonderful story of love behind them. We know much about Taj Mahal but credit goes to Dayaram Gidumal who has thrown light on the context and the background of the construction of Minaret of Masoom Shah. [Dr. Dur Muhammad Pathan]

GOOD DAY

Dr. Pathan wishes you Good Day.
[ Don't trust your beauty and adolescence, because they are not everlasting. Don't be proud of your mind, because it can make wrong decisions. Trust your heart and its love, because it is beautiful and wonderful. It can't betray you and always select second to none. Surrender before beauty, because sincerity and sacrifice is its requirement.]
عقل تي نہ هل عقل اڪثر ڪري خطا ٿي ويندو آ,
عشق ڪر جو مشڪل سان ئي عطا ٿي ويندو آ,
جوڀن ۽ حسن تہ وقت سان گڏ لاپتا ٿي ويندو آ,
سونهن جو حق ادا ٿي ويندو آ, جان ڏي سلام ڪر.

[Hearts, Souls and Society have to face sorrows, longings and problems, where nobody is ready for Dialogues, but is bent upon to impose Decisions. When dears and leaders start believing that they are selected Souls and Angels, hatred and discrimination start without any check. In that society, people avoid to accept and respect love & beauty. But, term them sin and crime.]

Hindu-Muslim Relations in Sindh

SOME EVENTS OF MISCHIEFS AND MISUNDERSTANDINGS BETWEEN SINDHI HINDUS AND MUSLIMS DURING BRITISHS PERIOD.
Hindus and Muslims have remained as two sides of a same coin in Sindh since centuries. However, religious and ideological distance and differences were ground realities and they played role in creating incidents of mischiefs and misunderstanding between both communities. However, there are so many cases in which either Muslims, or Hindus imposed policy of converting people by force. Such as Muslims of Karachi decided to convert Seth Hotchand father of Seth Naoomal and it proved to be most expensive act for Muslims , with the result that Seth Naoonmal became right hand of British people belonging to the East India Company and consequently Sindh lost her independence as a country forever.   In Talpur Rule in Khairpur, we note same mentality of Muslim Religious leaders and created religious terror. Sachal Sarmast and other Sufi saints minimized that feeling to some extent.
We are aware of events of mischiefs, misunderstandings and even fighting like controversy over Masjid Manzilgah of Sukkur. But, it was climax of misunderstandings and mischiefs those are not known to us. I am trying to put some events on record.
1.       In so many Municipalities of Sindh Hindus were occupying key seats such as President, Vice President and Members of Managing Committee. Some Municipalities passed resolution demanding ban on slaughter of Cows in Sindh.
2.       In 1922 majority of Muslims were elected on Key seats of the Matiari Municipality. It was not welcomed by Hindu Press and the Muslim Paper SINDH ZAMIDAR of Sukkur took task to criticize the role of Hindu Press. It advocated Hindu-Muslim Unity as a figment of imagination. It damaged Hindu-Muslim relations to some extent. The Daily Gazette of Karachi, in its issue of 30th May, 1922, (page.5) threw light on this terrible development.
3.       In April, 1924, dispute arose between Hindus and Muslims of Tando Adam over repair of a Mosque constructed on the Municipality Plot. Hindus claimed that it was Temple and not Mosque. The Collector of Nawabshah allowed Muslims to carry on repair work, whereas, The District Judge passed Injection Order in favor of Hindus. It created Law & Order problem in Tando Adam for so many days. The details are available in various issues ( Such as 21st May,1924) of  the Daile Gazette of Karachi.
4.       In the same year the Qura was put on fire in Ratodero. Parchomal and others were booked under ICP 295. Barrister  Pirzado was advocate for Muslims , whereas, Bhojsing Pahlajani was pleaded case in favor of Hindus. The matter remained as a Burning Topic for Hindu and Muslim Press. The Details can be read also in issue (29.4.1924) of the Daily Gazette, Karachi.
5.       In same year a dispute took place between Hindus and Muslims over repair of a Mosque near Hot Water Spots of Lakki. It created Law & Order Problem. Hence, leading people from both sides were booked under CPC 145 and they were brought before the Court of Resident Magistrate of Kotri. The various deputations of Hindus visited officers and judicial quarters. With the result that Interim Injection Order was issued by the Judicial Commissioner and a fresh case was registered against G.M.Syed, Akhud Suleman and others. The details are available in various issues of the Daily Gazette of June, 1924.
6.        In July 1924 the Sham Printing Press of Shikarpur published book “ Allah Mian Ki Tasveer”. The case was registered against the Manager and he was served Warning by the District Magistrate, Sukkur. Details are available in the Daily Gazette, in its issues of July and August.
7.       In the same year, from the month of July to October, there is very hot debate in Karachi Municipal. Hassan Ali Mir Muhammad Baloch, Naraidas Anandji, R.K.Sidwa and Dr. P.V.Tharani took part in debates. Muslims were demanding that Eidgah Maidan (Ground) be given to Muslims for their religious activities and Hindus insisted on declaring the Plot as Play Ground.
8.       On 30th March violence erupted in Larkano and it spread in Dadu and other areas. A Muslim lady along with her kids was converted to Hiduism. It was a great and terrible event in the history of Sindh. Hindus and Muslims showed their strength, hundreds were booked and imposition of Martial Law/deployment of Military Force was demanded by Hindu. The issue became of All-India level and THE LARKANO DAY was celebrated in and out of Sindh. Hundreds of pages are available in pages of our history.
9.       In April 1924 a Hindu boy of Bagirji embraced Islam he was named as Noor-ul-Haq. Moulana Taj Mahmood Amroti was involved in the matter. The case was registered in the Court of the District Magistrate of Sukkur. The situation remained in tense for a long time.
