“Aitzaz Hassan, 15, a student in Hangu district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has become a national hero after tackling the bomber who came to attack his school on Monday, with hundreds of students inside.”
“The office of Pakistani prime minister Nawaz Sharif said it had advised president Mamnoon Hussain "to approve the conferment of Sitara-e-Shujjat (star of bravery) to Shaheed (martyred) Aitzaz Hassan.” - Australia Broadcasting Corp
I salute you Aitzaz, your courage is a role model for Pakistani teenagers and should be honored in the best manner.
Aitzaz Shaheed’s bravery reminds us about all those who showed extraordinary courage in worst case scenarios.
Muzaffar Ahmad is one of them, who caught the suicide bomber and handed over him to police and saved a lot of human lives in Lahore attacks on May 28, 2010.
It is said, that Muzaffar Ahmad is the first civilian Pakistani, who caught the suicide bomber alive without any use of weapon and handed over to the police.
Ahmadiyya community knows Muzaffar Ahmed very well but Most of the Pakistanis do not know much about him, why?
Answer is not very difficult.
You might have figured out the answer already or you would figure it out at the end of this article.
Muzaffar Ahmad was survived in the attacks by terrorists while Ahmadis gathered for Friday prayers in two Ahmadiyya mosques in Garhi Shahu and Model Town, Lahore Pakistan.
Total 86 were martyred and 124 injured during these terrorist’s attacks.
Let us read Muzaffar’s story in his own words:
“My name is Muzaffar Ahmad. I am originally from Lahore, Pakistan”
“ The terrorist opened the door. The distance between me and him was no more than 7-9 feet. As he opened fire I positioned myself behind the pillar as to avoid the spray of bullets. One whistled past me scratching the surface of my body. Blood started pouring from the wound. Noticing the fact that I was injured, the terrorist now turned his attention to the others in the hall. Seizing the opportunity I gathered my strength and charged at the terrorist, managing to grab his neck with one hand and the barrel of the gun with the other, which prevented him firing on anyone else. Due to the constant firing the barrel of the gun was scolding hot and burnt my hand. Despite this I managed to pin the terrorist to the ground and snatched his gun from him. However, the threat was not yet over as he now turned his attention to his suicide jacket. He was struggling to free his right hand in order to blow himself up. Had this happened it would have had devastating effect. In the meantime other Khuddam arrived to help and tied down the terrorist.”
Many times questions with ‘Why?”, as mentioned above, are also raised for many other personalities like Chaudry Zafrullah Khan and Dr Abdus Salam.
Why Dr Abdus Salam is not mentioned in Pakistani media even though he got Nobel Prize for Pakistan?
Why Chaudry Zafrullah Khan, first foreign minister of Pakistan, judge of international court of Justice and president of UN general Assembly, is not mentioned in Pakistani media?
Answer to each of the above mentioned “why?” is very simple: He is Ahmadi, Qadiani or Mirzai.
Muzaffar was also lucky as well in one way, that he was not arrested for posing as Muslim.
Muzaffar was in the mosque to offer Juma prayer.
Suicide bomber could file case against Muzaffar that he was in mosque for Friday prayers and was posing as Muslim.
Ahmadis are not allowed to pose as Muslims by any way as per ordinance XX of Pakistan.
Many cases has been filed against Ahmadis for practicing as Muslims and using Islamic terminologies.
Ahmadis were arrested for saying Kalima, saying Assalamo Alikum, writing Bismillah and posing as Muslim by many other ways.
Recently, a 72 year old Ahmadi, Masood Ahmad was arrested in Pakistan for the crime of “Posing as Muslim”, when he recited Quranic verse and recorded by someone on cell phone as an evidence for the crime.
Let us consider another scenario, a terrorist comes and attacks Ahmadis while they are offering Namaz (prayer) or reciting Quran or doing other Islamic activities.
If some Ahmadi catches that terrorist, and hands over to the police, that terrorist can file a case against Ahmadis for the crime of offering prayer, reciting Quran and Posing as Muslims.
So Muzaafar Ahmad was not only survived in that attack but also luckily saved from the criminal case of posing as Muslim.
Ay Muzaffar, tujh perr Salam (Salute to You, Muzaffar!): You are lucky as well as brave Pakistani Ahmadi Ghazi! in many ways and someone still remembers you.
