According to Wilayat Times, the event began with the recitation of the Holy Qur’an, beautifully performed by the distinguished student Mr. Wajahat.
During the gathering, Mr. Syed Hamza Zaidi presented heartfelt poetry in praise of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), while the seminary students performed an energetic and beautiful Manqabat in honor of Imam Mahdi (ATFS).
Later, the principal of Madrasa, Hojjat-ul-Islam Jouybari, spoke about the academic, religious, and educational services of Shaheed Salis Seminary. He highlighted that since its establishment, the seminary has held a distinguished position in the fields of education, ethics, and religious awakening, attracting students from various cities of India who seek knowledge and are prepared to serve as future preachers and servants of the faith.
During the event, students and teachers paid tribute to the sincerity, selflessness, fatherly guidance, and mentorship of the former Representative of the Supreme Leader of India, Hojjat-ul-Islam wal-Muslimeen Haj Mahdi Mahdavipour, praising his contributions as part of the golden pages of history and praying for his health, well-being, and continued success. They also warmly welcomed and expressed gratitude for the presence of the current Representative, Hojjat-ul-Islam wal-Muslimeen Hakim Elahi.
In his closing address, Dr. Hakim Elahi provided the students with invaluable and insightful guidance, stating:
“Dear students! Among the world’s eight billion and seventy-seven million people, you have been specially chosen by Almighty Allah to serve the noble religion of Islam. This is a great divine blessing. Value it, and dedicate every breath of your life to God, the faith, and the pleasure of Imam Mahdi (AJ).”
He further emphasized that the students are not just learners but future leaders, preachers, and true soldiers of the faith. The support of Imam Mahdi comes not merely through words or prayers but through action, service, and sincerity. The Imam observes all of us, and students are at the forefront of his spiritual army. This responsibility should always remain alive in their hearts.
Hojjat-ul-Islam Hakim Elahi also expressed his concern regarding the future of Madrasa Shaheed-e-Salis.
“Just as Hojjat-ul-Islam Agha Mahdavipour dedicated his valuable efforts for upliftment of Shaheed Salis Seminary, I too will devote myself for the service of this academic and educational center. This seminary is not merely an educational institution but a fortress of faith and insight, from which future reformers, preachers, and leaders will emerge.”
During his visit, the Representative toured various sections of the seminary, including the dormitories, classrooms, and training departments. He closely observed the students’ academic and ethical environment, daily life, and engaged in detailed discussions with the seminary officials.
