His Role in Creating Unity Among Muslims
He was considered one of the compassionate and tireless leaders of the Shias of Pakistan. He always tried to preserve unity and solidarity among Muslims, and with all effort and endeavor, he neutralized the plot of enemies of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them). He was a proponent of unity between Shia and Sunni; therefore, when he was martyred, elders of Ahl al-Sunnah from all over Pakistan sent condolence messages, and expressed sorrow over this sad event. Martyr Allameh Hasan Turabi was a friend and helper of the poor and needy Shias and defended the rights of Shias of Pakistan. He had disregarded his own life, which is why he was attacked by the enemy several times. He loved Imam Khomeini very much and was a supporter of the Islamic Revolution of Iran. Today, the place of Martyr Turabi is empty in Pakistan and especially in the city of Karachi. And Shias of Pakistan feel his absence, which is why one of the writers in an article titled "One Person Has Destroyed the Whole City" meaning one person brought the whole city of Karachi to ruin[3]. On the other hand, he was a defender of the School of Ahl al-Bayt. He was considered a prominent speaker in Pakistan, and martyrdom was his wish. Allameh Hasan Turabi knew that one day he would attain the degree of martyrdom. Finally, he reached his wish and was martyred by the enemy[4].
Martyr is alive and never dies. And Allameh Hasan Turabi is also alive" (Excerpt from the speeches of Sayyid Sajid Ali Naqvi at the funeral sermon of Martyr Allameh Turabi.[5] Martyr Allameh Turabi: "We are Shia, we were not ashamed of being Shia yesterday nor are we ashamed today, rather being Shia is an honor for us, and we pride ourselves on being Shia. We respect every path and school and we want our rights based on equality and justice"[6].
