In 1957, for accepting / receiving the donations and to
cover the legal implications thereof, necessary amendments
were made in Bye-Laws and got registered the organization
in the name “Pak Moharram Association”. Moreover,
the Number of members were also increased from five to fourteen.
In 1961, due to tremendous increase in population of Shaian-e-Haider-e-Karar,
and enormous Commercial Cabins, Shops & encroachment
at soundings of Jehangir Park, due to huge traffic and problems
in parking of vehicles etc; it became absolutely difficult
to organize Majalis in the Park. With the coordination and
suggestion of the high officials of the then Government,
it was decided to shift this Markazi Majalis to Patal Park,
Soldier Bazar, Karachi which was the center of the City.
Now this Park is known as “Nishtar Park”. This
Park was area-wise large enough in comparison to Jehangir
Park and was quite suitable because of its four-way wide
roads and lanes. This substitute became very suitable and
feasible.
Every year Markazi Majalis-e-Aza of Mohrarram-ul-Haram are
held from 1to 8 at 5.00 p.m., on 9th Moharram at 11 a.m.
after the Majlis a Markazi Procession is taken out. On yoome-e-Aashoora,
the first majlis is held in the remembrance of Azan-e-Ali
Akbar prior to the Fajr prayer and second Majlis is held
at 8.00 a.m. After the Majlis, Markazi Procession consisting
of Alam, Zuljanah and Taboot is taken out which was terminated
at Hussainian Iranian after passing through its usual routes.
These Majlis are also seen at Pak Moharram Hall & Educational
Center on close circuit T.V.
On 20th Safar, Majlis-e-Arbain is held at 11.00 a.m. and
at 9.00 p.m. on 27th Safar in connection with death anniversary
of Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa S.A. (PBUH) and martyrdom of
Imam Hassan A.M. At the end of these Majalis, Processions
are also taken out in which thousands of mourners are participated.
Namaz-e-Eideen are still being observed / prayed at 9.00
a.m. at the Jehangir Park, Saddar, Karachi.
In 1965, keeping in view their religious as well as social
obligations, members of Pak Moharram Association felt it
absolute necessary to establish “Pak Educational Trust”
in addition to their prime duty of expansion of Azadari-e-Imam-Mazloom.
Accordingly “Pak Moharram Educational Trust”
was formed to create good ethics among the youngsters in
the light of Seerat-e-Masoomeen. The fundamental responsibility
of this organization is to build the character of youth
strong enough so that they could face the challenges of
prevailing immorality and prove themselves as virtuous having
strong personal mannerism.
In 1991, Pak Moharram Association expanded its activities
from 14 days to 365 day i.e. whole of the year and at the
beginning of 1412 Hijri, we started organizing Majalis /
Mahafils on death / birth anniversaries of Masoomeen A.S.
at Aza Khana-e-Zehra, Soldier Bazar, Karachi.
