Ahmadis: Boycotting Family

 

The Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya (Qadian) today faces a deep crisis of faith. There is a yawning gap between their preaching of Islam and the practices within. Even as they seek to ‘institutionalize’ a separate and distinct community identity under the exalted office of a Khalifatul Massih, the Nizam-e-Jamaat misrepresents and compromises Islamic teachings on a number of searing issues, including on the sanctity of family relations. While the Nizam-e-Jamaat preaches ‘Love for All’ as its ‘brand’ logo, yet it virtually practices hatred against fellow Ahmadis: it applies social boycott against the brothers in faith whose only ‘crime’ is that they believe in Divine revelations being vouchsafed through a pious Ahmadi among them- Hazrat Imam Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim of Mauritius!  


To protect their assembly-elected or institutional ‘Khalifa’ as against the Divinely-raised and inspired Khalifatullah, the Nizam-e-Jamaat feels the need to extinguish the Light of Allah among them, God Forbid! What an irony of faith!! The Holy Qur’an says: ‘O Children of Adam! Whenever there come to you Messengers from amongst yourselves relating to you My Messages, then whosoever (by accepting them) becomes secure against evil and amends, there shall remain no fear on them nor shall they grieve’ (7:36). Instead of helping and assisting an Elect of God who is sent among them to reform and purify them and to remove the filth of institutional excesses and doctrinal exaggerations from among them, today’s Ahmadi chiefs are following the worst enemies of the prophets and the saints in history! They seek to isolate and boycott the Messenger and his humble disciples and devoted followers!

 

Indeed, the Nizam-e-Jamaat follows a policy of socially boycotting the Elect of Allah and his disciples in Mauritius, India and elsewhere. Indeed, stupidity has no limits, apparently, within the Nizam-e-Jamaat when it comes to boycott policies. Consider, for instance, the following: to satisfy the prejudice and arrogance of the Jamaat chiefs and the priests, these small men go to the extent of separating and preventing a mother from being with her daughter on the occasion and place of her Nikaah. With such men at the helms of leadership in the Nizam-e-Jamaat, it is only natural that Allah (swt) in His infinite wisdom raised someone among the people- someone who speaks with the Holy Spirit; someone who explains Divine teachings among Ahmadis who are under the spell of Jahaalat in these turbulent times.  

 



In a recent Interview with the Sahih Al Islam YouTube Channel representative Hazrat Tayyebah Shaheedah Aliah Nasrine, Imam- Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius explains the humanistic teachings of Islam on respecting and protecting the sacred ties of kinship and blood relations. Drawing on Qur’anic principles and the sublime practice of the Holy Prophet (sa), Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) underscores the Islamic virtues of empathy and generosity, gratitude and humility and residual goodwill in maintaining ties of family and also the pitfalls of hatred and boycott- the breaking of sacred relations among blood relations.


Against the backdrop of his lived experience of being a victim of unfair social boycott policies applied by the Nizam-e-Jamaat in Mauritius for the last two decades, Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba), in this Interview, unravels the moral and ethical wrongs involved in the breaking of family relations as being practiced in the Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya in our times. Moreover, Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) shares his considered views about recent developments in India, where his disciples are experiencing totally unjust social boycott policies being implemented by the Nizam-e-Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya. There is little doubt that the inherent contradictions of this flawed policy of socially boycott as well as the narrow-mindedness, and foolishness of those who swear by the name of Islam in applying their myopic vision vis-a-vis the larger ethical universe of Islamic teachings is apparent to all- except the Jaahileen among the Ahmadis of today.
