Kalash 0 Posted March 10, 2006 What is Basant? Do You Know... "It is a function of Hindus which is observed in the happiness of mass killings of Muslims by Sikhs". From the last few years "Moj Mela Mafia" developed basant as a national festival for their own interests. What is basant? Some information is below to tell you the truth. Basically "Basant" is a word of (Hindus language) Sanskrit which means spring. When the autumn season is passing away and canola flowers bloom, this is called Basant Season. Because of this season yellow color id called Basant color. For whom is this Basant Festival? Spring season holds a significance in every society, as nature shows its beauty in this season. Flowers bloom up, crops are ready. The man of old time use to be happy on this ocassion, he assumes that the kindness of gods and goddess are behind this. So in order to make them happy he performs their (man) religious acts. Mushtaq Phulawaran a lover of basant writes :- Man started to praise the spring. In order to win its heart he started to give gifts and precious presents. He thought that in order to make some more near, precious gifts should be given. The most precious gift is human life. So in order to win heart of spring goddess, people started to slaughter human beings ( still in India blood is given to Darga goddess) . Spring goddess in Egypt is known as Isses, Ashar in Iraq and Syria, Venice in Greece, Nahid in Iran, Aserus in Rome, Shesh in China, Darga in India and Zuhra in Arab ( narrated from " Is a basant only a Hindu festival " ) A famous Muslim writer Al-Beruni researching on the beliefs, practices, prayers, special days and festivals of Hindu religion writes:- Basant is observed in Spring. From the calculations (by stars) they know the time and observe it as special day and feed Brahmans - the highest cast from four hindu casts. (narratead from "Kitab Ul Hind " ). From these facts basant is purely a Hindu's festival. From the history of Hinduism that there was no relation between kites and Basant. The kites were taken as an important god and to it was thought to be solution of many problems. A supporter of Kites flying writes:- It is believed that kite flying started from China and Korea, introduced it in religious festivals therefore Budhists, Chinese and Japanese people observed a day as kite flying day. Every year in China 9th september and 5th may in Japan is observed as kite flying day. Kite flying in China, Japan and India is observed as a public holiday and gathering of people. In temples and religious places the religious elites use kites in order to get rid of bad luck, disease and other kind of bad things. A news paper writes:- The Greeks flies kites to get rid of deamons and ghosts. Mushtaq Phulwaran who is supporter of kite flying writes:- Some tribes sing songs for the kites. Kite is accepted to be god. People prays to them and ask them for help and it is also believed that in presence of kites ghosts dont come near ( narrated from "Basant and Kite" ). The Hidden Truth:- Basant and kites are part of two non-Islamic practice. But how they got linked together? It`s background is scornful for we Muslims. If we have a little support for Islam then we`ll never go near to kites and Basant. Infact a Hindu "Hakeeat Raye Dharni" who used bad words in the respect of Prophet of ALLAH, Hazrat Muhammad (sal Allah aley wallihi wasalam) was hanged on the day of basant as panelty. Sikhs at last took the revenge by killing the Muslims brutually who were involved in this. In the joy of revenge Hindu and Sikhs flew kites on the "samadh" of Hakeekat Raye Dharni. As he was hanged on basant day so Lahore which was the centre of Sikh Government, Basant and kites were thought to be important. Readers now take a look at the facts below:- Muhammad Hanif Qureshi in his essay "Festival of Basant in the light of history and Religion" writes:- It has been usually said that basant is a seasonal and cultural fesitval which has no link with Religion and nation. But still there are thousands of people who will support this reality that before Independence Basant was purely thought to be Hindu festival and was observed in Lahore with full passion by Hindus and Sikhs. Two, three pleaces where Basant festival used to be held Hindu men and women come to "samadh" of Hakeekat Raye Dharni and help their festival. Men wear turbines of yellow colour and women wear yellow Sarhi. Sikhs men and women used to arrange festivals in their temples. Kites use to fly in inner Lahore (andaroon Lahore). Muslim also take part in this festival but dont wear yellow dresses. This all was observed in day light. using of loudspeaker, fireworks and use of guns was not there. Writting about this festival of Sikhs, S.B.Bukhari a Hindu writer, in his book "Punjab Under Later Mughals writes:- From 1709 to 1759 the governor of Punjab was Zikria Khan. In those days a non-Muslim "Hakeekat Raye Bahg Mil Puri" used sling words for Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAWS). Case went to court, the judge who was a Muslim sentence him death penalty. So in the area of Gorray Shah ( Sikh National College ground ), he was hanged. It was 1734. Later on, the Sikh community took revenge and killed brutually those Muslims who were involved in it. On page 259 of this book Dr. S.B.Bokhari writes " The Basant festival in punjab is observed in the memory of this". Attah Ullah Siddique writes:- Hindu gave Hakeekat Raye respect as a hero and start basant festival in his memory. As Hakeekat`s Raye wife was a Sikh that is why Sikhs were also sorry alongwith Hindu. (narrated from monthly megazine " Mujahid feb 2001 "). When Sikhs came to power in Punjab they start observing Basant with full passion. Famous english writter "Alevend Breezer" who came to Lahore in the time of Mahraja Rangeet Singh, writes about basant:- From Lahore to the place of festival Mahraja`s army was standing on the two sides of road. At the place of festival there was Mahraja`s royal tent on which there were yellow coloured Sikh linies. Maharaja sat down and heard song and gave gifts to the singer. Then he wrapped the holy book in ten clothes and the cloth on top was of yellow colour. The former lecturer of Oriental College Lahore, Arigiani Khizan Singh writes in emotion:- Historians reach to the point that people remembers our brother "Hakeekat Singh" as "Hakeekat Raye Dharni". The relatives of Hakeekat`s mother were Sikh who were hanged along with him at Nakhas Chowk. The place in Lahore (shaheed gang) where he was hanged was full of the screams of his wife and mother-in-law and his father-in-law. Their screams and appeals couldn`t mould the heart of authorities and he died in, 1803 on the day of Basant, so on this day a big festival held in his "samadh". From the research of Giani Khizan Singh "Hakeekat Raye" was a Sikh not Hindu. In the above paragraph the respect that is shown for Hakeekat Raye results in saying that Hindus and Sikhs gave status of hero to such a person who used bad words for the ever kindest and most noble human, last Prophet of ALLAH, Hazrat Muhammad (SAWS), same the status that Muslims gave to " Ghazi Ilam-ud-din Shaheed ". Dr. Sir Ghokal before the parition of India was a minister in local government writes in his book " Mr. Information of Sikhism" that :- "... decision was given and immidiately in the centre of Lahore in front of Hindu community a noble person`s head has cut off. In his last ceremony poor and rich all participated. His ash was dugged in soil 4km away from Lahore, where his tomb is still standing. Basant is observed every year in his rememberance". The tomb of Hakeekat Raye at present is in Kot Khuwaja Saeed Lahore. People remember it as "Babay Day Marhi". Near Hindus a person who used bad words for Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAWS) is a holy person. From above facts, observing basant is same as to deny reality. ALLAH may give us power and courage to stop and taking part in this. Spread this message and forward it to your friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
