June 2024: Allah's Message

 

Islam teaches us to recognize our true Lord, and strongly urges us to worship only the Creator and Sustainer of the Universe: Exclusively, turn to God Almighty. To the exclusion of all other visible and ‘manufactured’ deities/ ‘idols’ that many take as lords besides the Lord, we should hold the Most Gracious in awe, though He is Invisible and Unseen. Allah (swt) created humans, and ‘He is closer to man than his jugular vein’: He knows what our souls whisper to us; He knows what our thoughts and intentions are, according to the evocative words of the Holy Qur’an.

Everyone who turns often to God and keep Him in mind, and who comes before Him with a heart turned to Him in devotion; such devoted servants shall find that the Ever-Living, All Knowing and All Hearing, Allah (swt) responds to their sublime invocations and fervent prayers, Insha-Allah, Aameen. Like Allah (swt) tells the Holy Prophet (sa) in the Holy Qur’an: ‘And when My servants ask you concerning Me (tell them), I am nearby indeed, I answer the prayer of the supplicant when he prays to Me, so they should respond to My call, and believe in Me (that I possess all these attributes) so that they may proceed in the right way’. [2:187]

The Sheikh on Life Lessons- 3

 

Those who learn the history of Islam will be astonished by facts that speak for themselves- the great role women believers [Sahabiyat] performed around the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sa) and the early Muslim community in Makkah and Madinah. Look at certain facts: the first person to embrace Islam was a woman – Hazrat Khadijah (ra); the first person to die for Islam was a woman- Hazrat Sumayya (ra). The greatest scholar of lslam was a woman – Hazrat Aisha (ra). The person who loved the Holy Prophet (sa) the most was a woman– Hazrat Fatimah al Zahra (ra). The person who made the biggest sacrifice for lslam in one day was a woman – Hazrat Khansaa (ra). One of the greatest fighters in Islamic history was a woman – Hazrat Khawla Bint Alazwar (ra); Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah.

The Sheikh on Life Lessons- 2

'Allah it hurts; it hurts a lot. 

I know You see me struggle day in and day out.

No love is greater than Your love. 

I shall be patient for Your sake. 

Fix my heart, comfort my soul, Ya Rab...! 

‘O my Rab,

from the bottom of my heart,

I want to thank You for loving me,

forgiving me, healing me,

and never leaving me’.

 

When Allah likes a person, then the condition of His liking is that He puts a lot of trials on that person. Allah tests that person again and again, because Allah wants to be close to him; Allah just wants to see how much patience and faith His servant has in his Rab.   

God's plan is always the best. Sometimes the Process is painful and hard. But don't forget that when God is silent, He's doing something for you.

When someone speaks against you, speak well of them. When you are mistreated, treat them well. Repay Evil with Good, and God will fight your battles, Insha Allah.

The 'Sheikh' on Life Lessons

  

In times of chaos and confusion in some place in the Universe when ethics and morals decline and irreligion advances, Allah (swt) sends someone with the Rooh’il Quddus- to repair and restore the path of Truth corrupted by the hands of men. With the help of divine revelations, the chosen servant of God re-establishes Tawheed back on earth: through setting standards of just conduct and practical wisdom, and by becoming a moral exemplar for the people of the times. As per Sunnat Allah, and the great Promise contained in the sacred books of the Muslims, God Almighty raises a noble soul with the light of guidance; a high representative and true successor to the spiritual throne of the Holy Prophet (sa) is sent in every era; a ‘Khalifatullah’ who preaches pure scripture and practical wisdom appears in every century of Islam. Indeed, this is the true concept of 'Divine Khilafat' in the Holy Qur'an [24:56]. 

 

Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah, the holy founder of the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International, Hazrat Imam Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius, is the Divinely-raised Mujaddid of the 15^th century of Islam, and this great spiritual mentor of our times speaks with the help of Rooh’il Quddus. While speaking to his disciples and followers, the Sheikh-ul-Islam (aba) famously stated once: ‘I give not lectures but mixtures for your mental health and moral invigoration. So take my words as medicines necessary for your health...’ 

Arab 'Winter' and the Euro 'Spring'

 

The Arab Spring is a term used to tag the wave of protests and civil unrest that swept the Arab world back in December 2010 when a street vendor in Tunisia, Mohammad Bouazizi set himself on fire when the police came to seize his vegetable stall after his failure in obtaining a permit to exercise. He furthermore faced harassment and humiliation by a municipal officer and her assistants.

 

He unfortunately set himself on fire as an open defiance against the autocratic regime, and this act of his was hailed by the West as a mighty sacrifice for democracy in the Arab world and he and those who followed his example to self-immolate themselves - nearly a dozen of them in Egypt, Algeria and Mauritania – were granted such praiseworthy titles such as “heroic martyrs of a new North African and Middle Eastern revolution”. This was published in the New York Times, in the article “How a single match can ignite a Revolution” published on 21 January 2011 by Robert F. Worth.

 

This act which the world deemed as a sacrifice for democracy is in fact suicide which is highly condemnable in Islam. No matter how hard a situation may come upon man, he has no right to take the life which does not belong to him. This act of suicide may be deemed by the West as a heroic act but unfortunately it is not so! Islam encourages revenge as per the same degree of torture that one undergoes, reaffirming the Mosaic Law “an eye for an eye” but being more just and lenient in its application. Islam is the Best Model, the Middle Way, between the extreme and the laissez-faire. The leaders who don’t follow the tenets of Islam while proclaiming themselves as Muslim States are accountable in the worldly court of justice as well as the Divine Court of Justice, but no Muslim – I clear and firmly state – NO MUSLIM SHOULD EVER TAKE HIS OWN LIFE! No matter how hard a situation gets, Allah has forbidden His servant to take this satanic step towards self-destruction.

Poem: 'The True Heirs of David'

  

When Life gives me Blues,

I seek the Bloom of Blood,

Which runs down my veins,

Like a crushing Waterfall,

Overwhelming the Realm of Existence,

With a pure purpose;

 

Like a fragile petal,

I tremble in the Rain,

But when the Spirit of Mighty Love,

Touches my eyelids,

I feel reinvigorated like an

Unbreakable Wall,

Ready for the missiles on my way;

 

I am the Muslim,

I am the Servant of Allah,

I am the True Islam

In me, you will see Palestine Growing;

The Message of 19 May 2024

 

In a message to disciples and followers in the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam in India, on the occasion of a special Tarbiyyat meeting organized by the Delhi Jamaat in association with the Tamil Nadu and Kerala Jamaats on Sunday, 19 May 2024;  Hazrat Imam Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius reflects profoundly on his spiritual mission of the last two decades and more, emphasizing the need for all believers to rise up to their individual duties and collective responsibilities, and to meet the inevitable and unavoidable trials of Faith and related challenges in everyday life- with Taqwah, refined appreciation of Islamic teachings on what is right and wrong, absolute trust and reliance on Allah (swt) while striving hard to implement and establish Tawheed in their own settings so as to attract Divine mercy and pleasure, both in this world and in the world to come, Insha Allah, Aameen.   

Read the special message Below:

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim

My dear disciples,

Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullah Wabarakaatuhu.

 

After 16 blessed years of His Divine Caliphate, Allah has given each of you the opportunity to accede to His nearness through your hard works in His cause.

The times of a Messenger of Allah is a unique one, and you are most fortunate that you are witnessing such times. These times are not just a time of divine blessings but also of great trials. As we are all witnessing, the world has been seized by a deep convulsion, where disasters of all kinds, divinely-sent ones as well as man-made ones are destroying the world cubit by cubit. The lives of the Muslim believers are endangered.

 

I advise my sincere disciples to always remain on the right path, to be ever courageous in times of difficulties, to be strong to fight all injustices on earth through valid arguments from the Holy Quran and Sunnah of our beloved prophet Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh).
