During Pakistan’s Independence Day celebrations at Dargah Mu’alla Gulshan-e-Sultan-ul-Hind, Ajmeri, the Custodian of Ajmer Sharif, Diwan Syed Aaly Habeeb Ali Khan, delivered an impassioned address highlighting the significance of freedom, the sacrifices that made Pakistan’s creation possible, and the importance of loyalty to one’s homeland.
The Custodian emphasized that Independence Day holds deep meaning as it commemorates the establishment of Pakistan through the hard work, prayers, and sacrifices of generations past. He paid tribute to his ancestor, Sheikh-ul-Mashaikh Hazrat Diwan Syed Aaly Rasool Ali Khan, a former Custodian of Ajmer Sharif who played a pivotal role in the Pakistan independence movement. By uniting spiritual leaders and intellectuals across India, he rallied support for Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and the Muslim League, sacrificing his custodianship, wealth, and estate for the cause of Pakistan and ultimately migrating to the newly formed nation.
