Shrine Of Sahabi Hujr ibn Adi Destroyed, Body Exhumed

DAMASCUS: Grave of the great companion of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), Hujr ibn Adi, in Adra, a small town north of Damascus, has been reportedly destroyed by insurgent groups.

Although the militants belonging to an extremist group affiliated to Al-Qaeda claim to have exhumed the body and buried it elsewhere, a caretaker to the shrine claiming to be an eye witness to the destruction, has stated that the digging was insufficient to reach the body and that the militants were killed on trying to leave the shrine.

Meanwhile Hezbollah has condemned the crime that terrorists and expressed its pain on hearing the "news that armed terrorists have dug the grave of the Prophet’s dignified companion."

“What we expected and feared, and what Hezbollah Secretary General, his Eminence Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, warned of two days ago, regarding the assault on sanctums, and the violation of religious sanctities, has happened,” a statement issued by the group said.

“The shrine of the great companion, Hujr Ibn Adi, is one of the most important shrines for all Muslims, and violating and digging his grave in this way reveals a terrorist and criminal mentality that does not respect neither Muslim nor Christian sanctities,” it added.

The statement indicated that “this crime raises one big question: Where is the Syrian opposition which claimed it wanted to protect sanctities and pledged to defend shrines and religious centers?”

Hujr ibn Adi was executed along with his son in 660 CE during the Umayad rule.

Sayyid Abul Ala Mawdudi in his book Caliphs and Kings writes:

“Hujr ibn Adi was a pious companion of the Prophet (saw) and played a vital role in the correction of the Ummah. During Muawiyah’s reign when the custom of cursing Ali from the pulpit’s of Mosques began, hearts of the Muslims were being bled dry but people bit their tongues fearing death. In Kufa, Hujr ibn Adi could not remain silent and he began to praise Ali and condemn the ruler. Until Mughira remained the Governor of Kufa, he adopted a lenient attitude towards this, but when Ziyad’s Governorship of Basra was extended to include Kufa, serious altercations arose. Ziyad then arrested him along with twelve of his companions on false accusations of forming an opposition group to overthrow the Khalifa.

The accused were sent to Damascus where Hujr ibn Adi, his son Humaan ibn Hujr and his seven companions were executed. From amongst them Abdur Rahman bin Hasan was sent back to return with a written instruction that he be murdered in the worst possible manner, Ziyad buried him alive

The FSA militants have reportedly attacked the mausoleum and exhumed the grave of Hujr ibn Adi(ra) in the Damascus suburb of Adra, and took his remains to an unknown location.

Hujr(ra) - A close companion of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and a staunch supporter of the first Shia Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (ra) - led the army of Muslims to victory in several crucial battles.

He and his sons finally fell victim to their loyalty for Hazrat Ali (ra) and were murdered on the orders of the Umayyad Caliph Muawiyah in the year 660 CE.

Syria has been experiencing a deadly unrest since March 2011, and many people, including large numbers of army and security personnel, have been killed in the chaos.

The Syrian government says that the violence is being orchestrated from outside the country, and there are reports that a very large number of the insurgents are foreign nationals.

Damascus says the West and its regional allies Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey are supporting the armed groups.

In addition, several international human rights organizations have accused the militants fighting the Syrian government of committing war crimes..
