Brothers and sisters and children of the Jamaat mainly congregated at the mosques of the community for Eid special prayers in Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
‘Fitra
applies on the rich and the poor as well, male and female. Fitra is incumbent
on every newborn of our Jamaat as well.’
‘And
be it Fidya and Fitra, they are to be distributed before the Eid Salat to the
poor and deprived believers of Islam (and for the Divine Manifestation -
priority to our believing members Sahih Al Islam).’
Accordingly,
members on their own as well as in partnership with the Jamaat system collected
and distributed a good sum of money in religious charities to facilitate the celebration
by all members of Eid-ul-Fitr without financial difficulties creating any
barrier, Alhamdulillah.
Mystical visions and other Signs
For instance, a particular vision vouchsafed to
a humble woman member of the Jamaat indicated to the flight of time and our
opportunity, and spiritual responsibility now: the need for recognizing the blessings of God in the form of
His chosen messenger sent with the revelations of His teachings, the Khalifatullah (aba) in our midst- before our ability to
profit from these divine graces are forever taken away from us- with our passing
away from this world only to be held accountable on the Day of Meeting, the Day
when nothing about us will be concealed from God.
Indeed, our deeds are our destiny
on that ever-approaching Day: no injustice will be done on that day, and each
soul shall be rewarded for whatever it has done. May Allah (swt) enable each
one of us to embrace our chance to be good believers in our time in this world,
and do good when we can, enduring good deeds in service of humanity, and may
the Lord forgive us our sins and turn to us with mercy and grace, and grant us the
paradise of His nearness, Insha Allah,
Aameen.
