The QURBANI of Hadhrat Ibrahim (as)

People practice different rituals in their quest for Divine satisfaction. Sincere good deeds and personal sacrifices made solely for the purpose of seeking the pleasure of Allah have special resonance at the throne of Allah (twa). In the quest for understanding the spirit of sacrifice in the service of Tawheed, the life of Hadhrat Ibrahim (as) serves as an enduring model and inspiration for all believers. For his experiences in all their complex and varied settings represent an extraordinary saga of submission to the Divine Will. Even under conditions of severe trials, requiring extreme patience in the contingencies of life such as being asked his son, Hadhrat Ibrahim (as) remained sincere, solely devoted to the protective hands of the Divine [Inset: Artistic impression of that great sacrifice).

In his Friday Sermon of 04 October 2013, the Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) Mauritius reflected on the purpose of Qurbani, a ritual of faith all devout Muslims observe on the occasion of the performance of Hajj / Eid-ul-Adha in the backdrop of the story of the life of Hadhrat Ibrahim (as).

Unity of the Muslim Ummah

Islam envisions a world order of peace and brotherhood, celebration of linguistic, racial and cultural diversity, human equality and international solidarity, empathy and care for the less privileged. Yet today, Muslim Ummah everywhere seems to be under a siege from within and outside: economic upheaval, social turmoil, a loss of values, political unrest and even war among the brothers in many societies. The class of Mullahs have discredited their leadership  with theologies of terror, obscurantism and formulaic rigidism, bereft of empathy and understanding for the complex circumstances of the Muslim peoples struggling to adjust with the ebb and flow of life. In his Friday Sermon of 27 September 2013, Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim (atba) of Mauritius profoundly underscored the need for serious reflection on the part of the Muslim Ummah in an age of multiple crises and Satanic trials afflicting the entire Ummah.      

It is for the Muslim Ummah to introspect on what goes wrong with their spiritual and material self. The promise of Divinely-inspired Khilafat in the form of the arrival of the Khalifatullah with the Holy Spirit has been astonishingly fulfilled in this age in the personhood of Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius. Yet the world of Islam is yet to awaken to this awe-inspiring spiritual development in our times. In the age of a Divine Messenger, trials and rewards await the believers; just as the Satanic impulses of the age will induce the people to deviate from their noble selves. To defeat the army of Satan, the believers have to wage a war at all levels of consciousness and follow the true guidance which is the guidance of Allah (twa) being made available through His Khalifa.While the Satanic forces of the age may rejoice at the apparent dangers to the faith of Islam, Allah (twa) raises His own small army to register and record a model of Living Islam for all sincere, truth-seekers and Divine –worshippers.

Divine Message of Our Times: Don’t Rush to Reject

Islam claims the legacy of all religions that came before it and consolidates within it the great spiritual message of all times: ‘Believe in One God and leave aside the gods besides God, the Lord’. According to the Holy Qur’an, that is the simple but profound Message all Prophets and the Divine Elects of the past have always taught their people(s).

And Islam promises the great blessing of Divine Elects who will come in the Ummah as practical role models of living spirituality in every century. To raise and appoint a Messenger to teach the Book and practical wisdom is a Divine prerogative. Consequentially, it is the duty of people of the age to recognize, accept and assist the Messenger when he announces his Divine Mission. Yet, when Allah (twa) appoints a Divine Messenger, the people of his times will most likely, cling to their traditional rituals and inherited notions of faith and belief. Arrogance of affluence and vanity of pride will induce them to look down upon the Divine Message and the Messenger. When they seek to reject a Messenger, they do it only by trampling upon the eternal spiritual teachings and the subtle ways of the Divine Will.

Ahmadi Muslims know in the heart of their hearts that there is nothing in the spiritual doctrine which stands in the way of the appearance of a Divine Messenger in this age- the Fifteenth Century of Islam. Yet, they are not able to come forward to recognize the Divine Messenger among them because of certain wrong notions they have developed as their theological doctrines. They have not understood the full significance and grandeur of the Divine Message descending down upon the Chosen Messenger of Allah in our times. They are in doubt as to how can this happen when they have themselves elected a Khalifa for themselves and remain ‘united’ largely as a community. To protect the power and authority of their elected Khalifa, however, Ahmadis have no option but to propagate that which contradicts their own inner conscience: Khatme Massih Maoud. Many Ahmadis are increasingly unhappy with this kind of theological foreclosure of Divine Elects by the community’s own divines and leaders and are coming forward to embrace the Divine Manifestation in Mauritius.

On September 22, 2013 the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam, Kerala (India) organized a special Tarbiyyat and new Bai’at Programme whereby some Ahmadis from Kerala took Bai’at at the hands of the Imam of the Age, Muhyi-ud-Din Khalifatullah, Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius. The special address of the Khalifatullah on the occasion throws profound light on the subject of living Islam and the vital blessing of a Divine Elect being raised in this age.

New Bai’ats in Kerala: A Report

On Sunday, September 22, 2013 Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam, Kerala (India) organized a special Tarbiyat & New Bai’at Programme at the historic Noor’ul Islam Masjid, Mathra.

The Programme began with the First Session at 10.45 a.m. (IST). On Chair was the respected Amir of the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam, Kerala, Janab R. Jamal-ud-Din Sahib. Zulfiqar Ali Sahib, Kaliyikkavila offered Tilawat-Ul-Qur’an. 

Welcome Address was delivered by Janab Saleem Sahib, Alappuzha (Treasurer, JUSAI, Kerala).

In his inaugural address, the Amir Sahib explained at length, the Special Message/Address of the Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius. Three brothers from Kaliyikkavila-  Zulfiqar Ali Sahib, Sadiq Ali Sahib and Azim Ahmad Sahib-who joined and integrated with the Jamaat in August 2013, shared their spiritual journey and the Bai’at Experience, including the trials and challenges they have endured from their Ahmadi  relatives and the community in general.

The Divine Khilafat and Nubuwwat-II

In the modern world, the Muslims have a national presence in almost all the countries, whether as the majority or as a minority community. Yet, the fact is that the Muslim Ummah is caught up in the cauldron of political and economic imperialism of the outside forces, everywhere. They can’t see any Messiah arising among them to redeem their predicament. Yet, the latent consciousness within them suggests that navigating through the troubled waters of the modern age is almost impossible without the leadership of someone immersed in the Divine waters. In the quest for a spiritual solution to meet the guidance imperative of our times, the religious scholars are searching for the practical embodiment of the idea of Khilafat.

Yet, the religious divines are grossly divided among themselves and are unable to rise above sectarian differences. Even when they elect a man to preside over their affairs, the man is unable to give them the requisite spiritual and material advice as he himself is bereft of Divine guidance in the absence of nourishing Divine revelations. As the Islamic ideal of Divine Khilafat is based on the precept of Nubuwwat, the declaration of “Khatme Nubuwwat” (end of Messengership) by the general Muslims and the declaration of “Khatme Massih Maoud” by the Ahmadis, mean that they are unable to recognize the Divine Khilafat when it is established by Allah (twa). In his Friday Sermon of September 20, 2013 the Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius profoundly reflects upon the problems and perils of man-elected Khilafat systems that the Muslim Ulema and the various sects are conjuring up and devising for themselves.

The Divine Khilafat and Nubuwwat

In his Friday Sermon of September 13, 2013 the Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius, delivered from the Reunion Island, continued the theme of spiritual guidance in an age of material corruption and religious deviations. The establishment of the system of Divine Khilafat to safeguard the Sahih Al Islam in every age is directly linked to the blessings of Nubuwwat-e-Muhammadiyya. As the physical embodiment of such lofty blessings on the Ummah, it is incumbent upon all Muslims to recognize, accept and obey and help the Khalifatullah of their age. Instead of the administrative assemblies of the faithful seeking to control and regulate, define and delimit the freedoms and space of the Khalifatullah, it would be in their spiritual interest to await and follow the Divine instructions descending through him.

Read the Extracts from the Friday Sermon:  

“Corruption has appeared throughout the land and sea by what the hands of people have earned so He may let them taste part of (the consequence of) what they have done that perhaps they will return (to righteousness).” (30: 42).

A Warning to Khalifatul Massih V

Recent Bai’at of some Ahmadis in Kerala, India at the hands of the Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius has unsettled the mercenaries and officials of the Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya. So much so that they used all channels possible and methods feasible to deviate these devout Muslims from their chosen path of recognizing and accepting the Imam of the Age! 

Family pressure, society pressure, money pressure and employment pressure-nothing could deter these courageous young men from following the path of Allah and moving away from the ‘comfort zone’ of all they knew as common Ahmadis coping with the trials and tribulations of everyday life. Those young men have patiently and bravely put up with all the mental torture, harassment, intimidation and satanic curses showered on them by people who call themselves ‘Ahmadis’. The egregious misconduct of the so-called mainstream is nothing but the satanic manifestations of the extent of their deviance and polar-drifting from the original teachings of the Promised Massih (as). As the Holy Qur'an indicates, it is indeed the youth who will begin to listen to a Divine Messenger when such a one arrives in a society where the Pharaohs and the great men will only seek to doubt and ridicule!     

For thoughtful Ahmadis, there is little doubt. Khalifatul Massih V Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib presides over the age of spiritual darkness and blatant idol-worship in Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya. Unfortunately for him, the Khalifa does not enjoy the Divine converse despite the pretentions of office and the protestations of the faithful, nor could he produce any shred of evidence of being a recipient of Divine revelations in the last 10 years of his temporal “Khilafat”. It is manifestly apparent and reasonably obvious that Allah (twa) has never appointed him to convey any Divine message to the world in His name and whatever he says and writes is purely what his inner self prompts him to do and everything he says is nothing but the product of his own mind and deliberation (if not that of his advisors)! In short, his ‘ideas’ are as good or as bad as any other human mind could conceive it. 

In an age in which Ahmadis have taken their Caliph as “the calf” (Idol), the ‘Samiri’ will suggest only what his mind conceive of (Holy Qur’an, 20:85-97), the Caliph cannot speak with the authority and conviction of an Elect of Allah, a Khalifatullah. When the Prophet Moses (as) went for a few days to his Lord to do his obeisance and seek Divine blessings, the Samiris of the day digressed back the people into idol-worship. When Allah raises a Moses (Divine Elect) in a new age and that too, a century after the last Elect, he will warn the Samiris of the age. Taking serious note of the mind-games and psychological warfare by the Ahmadi leadership in India, in a special Speech on August 14, 2013, the Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius commented upon the incidents against the larger backdrop of the terminal decline of spirituality among the Ahmadis of today.
