Hajj or the pilgrimage to Mecca
for the performance of spiritual rites is one of the most sacred obligations in
Islam. An able Muslim has to undertake the pilgrimage at least once in his or
her lifetime. The Holy Qur’an describes the Hajj in a manner that reinforces spiritual
brotherhood, universal solidarity, and oneness of humanity symbolizing the
essential unity and egalitarian spirit of all mankind worshipping the Lord
Almighty.
And yet, the Mullahs have instigated the mundane caretakers
of the ‘Ancient House’- (‘Baitul Aqiq’) so
much so that Muslims who believe in the
Promised Massih Hadhrat Ahmad (as) are prevented from performing their
spiritual obligations at Mecca .
This is a patent subversion of the Qur’anic idea of Hajj which seeks to unite
humanity under the banner of Islam, rather than divide the world on the grounds
of sectarian prejudices and jaundiced perceptions.
It is only logical to consider that irrespective of what
the mundane caretakers of the the ‘Ancient House’ may prescribe, the original
Qur’anic perspective of uniting mankind at Mecca shall have to happen, especially with
the advent (and departure) of the Promised Massih (as). Now that Allah has sent
a Chosen Messenger of His in our times in the personhood of Hadhrat Munir Ahmad
Azim Sahib of Mauritius ,
there is a valid spiritual expectation that the promised uniting of all
humanity under the symbolic banner of Hajj shall take place in the present era
itself. Allah knows Best.
It is instructive to note that in his recent speeches- November 04 &
06, 2011- on the subject of Hajj and Eid, Hadhrat Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius
made certain pertinent observations based on what Allah the Most High has
informed him through revelations.
Read the Extracts
from the Sermons:
“The so-called Mullahs
and the other Muslims from the various sects have forbidden us, the Ahmadi
Muslims to go and perform Hajj and they declared us non-Muslims.
Allah Almighty gave me this revelation that Insha-Allah,
in the coming years the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam, the Messiah and Caliph of
Allah of this era and his followers shall enter Mecca and we shall be able to
do our Hajj, Insha-Allah.
Do not lose hope, be
steadfast, this day and year shall come, Allah is ever true in His promises
which He vouchsafed to His chosen servant.
I tell these so-called
Mullahs to wait, I am also waiting with them and they shall not be able to bar
the decree of Allah (from realising). Do whatever you want to do, but you shall not be able to
stop that day
from coming when Allah Almighty’s Caliph shall enter Mecca . That day shall be the victory of
Allah. Allah and His servant and those have believed in His chosen servant, it
is us who shall be victorious in the face of your evil-doings, scheming which
you do to restrict our Ahmadi Muslim brothers and sisters from performing Hajj,
as if that holy land belongs to you!
In this era Allah
Almighty shall show the truthfulness of His chosen Caliph (Khalifatullah) when the day shall come, when he and his
disciples shall enter Mecca .
I ask them to try to do everything in their power to stop that (decree); try as
they may, but can they ever fight against Allah Almighty when Allah Almighty
already decreed and promised His Caliph (Khalifatullah)
entrance in Mecca in the coming years?...
“[T]he members of the Jamaat
Ul Sahih Al Islam must always bear this in mind, for we have to bring back the lost values of
Islam and we must call the whole of Humanity towards the teachings of the Quran
which people have disregarded. Like a utensil which has accumulated rust, it is
therefore our duty to clean it. We
have to give the Holy Ka’aba this spiritual bath, so that after
this bath, it becomes the Holy Ka’aba which was once manifested upon the heart
of Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him), the same Holy Ka’aba which was erected
by Hazrat Ibrahim (upon him be peace) and Ismail (upon him be peace) and which
the Quran has mentioned, their names being connected to the construction of the
Holy Ka’aba”.
