Man of God, or a ‘Madman’?
Friday, April 19, 2024
An Interview with Imam Mahdi
Today, 19 April 2024, marks the 21st anniversary of the first Bai’at [the covenant of repentance with God] initiated and accepted by Hazrat Amir-ul-Mu’mineen Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Al Mahdi Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius on 19 April 2003. On that day in 2003, soon after the demise of the fourth caliph of the Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya Mirza Tahir Ahmad Saheb [1928-2003] in London [UK], Hazrat Amir-ul-Mu’mineen (aba) received the Divine instruction to accede to the request of Muslim brothers and sisters in Mauritius to receive Bai’at in the Hand of Allah (represented by the hand of Hazrat Imam (aba)]; marking an important milestone in the sacred history and trajectory of Islamic renewal over the centuries. Accordingly, the first Bai’at was held that evening in the house of Hazrat Ummul Mu'mineen Fazli Amena Saheba on the second storey, at Louvet Avenue, Quatre-Bornes, Mauritius. From that momentous occasion, over the last two decades, the spiritual mission of Hazrat Khalifatullah Al Mahdi (aba) has been, and is, thriving by the grace and blessings of Allah (swt). And for true spiritual seekers- those who have eyes to observe, ears to listen and hearts to understand-, the support and help of God is clearly evident in the progressive trajectory of the Divine Manifestation of our era, Subhaan Allah, Alhamdulillah, Allah-u-Akbar!
It is absolutely certain that Hazrat Imam Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius has appeared as a servant of Faith in our midst with proof from Allah the Almighty. The divine revelations vouchsafed to Hazrat Saheb (aba) comprises matters of the unseen and prophecies with regard to the future, acceptance of prayer, revelation in various languages, and revelation of points of wisdom and divine truths- exactly like in the times of the promised messiah Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) of Qadian [1835-1908]. Since all this is divine testimony, it is the duty of everyone who possesses faith to accept his claim as the servant of God in this era, the Divinely-raised ‘Muhyiuddin’/ ‘Mujaddid’/ ‘Khalifatullah’/’ Dhul Qarnain’/ ‘Imam Mahdi’- all being spiritual titles bestowed by the Lord Himself upon His servant of this era.

Bai’at with the Khalifatullah
Bai'at: In Covenant with God
‘Prophet, when believing women come and pledge to you
that they will not ascribe any partner to God, nor steal, nor commit adultery,
nor kill their children, nor lie about who has fathered their children, nor disobey you in any righteous thing, then you should accept their
pledge of allegiance and pray to God to forgive them: God is most forgiving and
merciful.’ (60:13)
‘Those who pledge loyalty to you [Prophet] are actually pledging loyalty to God Himself– God’s hand is placed on theirs––and anyone who breaks his pledge does so to his own detriment: God will give a great reward to the one who fulfils his pledge to Him.’ (48:11)

Revelations of 18 January 2024

‘Allah said to me:
O Messiah of this Era,
Beware of losing Me,
For if you lose Me, you will
have lost everything, and
If you do not lose Me, you will have lost nothing.’

23 Years of the Divine Manifestation
For common Jamaat members like this humble writer, it was a day of gratefulness and thanksgiving to Allah (swt). As Muslims who follow the timeless teachings of the Holy Qur’an, and the deep insights of the Holy Prophet’s sacred practice as the correct and straight path- the religion of Allah; we recognize that the raising of an Elect of God among the people is an enduring Divine practice, a Sunnat Allah, in every era. Allah (swt) granted us a practical role model and exemplar of the spiritual Way, especially in an era and at a time when most people grope in the darkness of ignorance, misbeliefs and superstitions, doubts, and despair. Hence, the raising of a Mujaddid in our troubled times is an example of pure Divine grace and mercy in our perspective. And He granted us an extraordinary blessing by enabling us to recognize His chosen manifestation in our midst, Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah.

'The world is not our Home'
'Everyone on earth perishes; all that
remains is the Face of your Lord, full of majesty, bestowing honour'. (55: 27-28)
'Do not call out to any other god beside God, for there is no god but Him. Everything will perish except His face. His is the judgement and to Him you shall all be brought back.' (28:89)
People love the fleeting life: family and children, wealth and riches, power and authority, fame and grandeur, etc. They forget God and ignore His commandments when they chase transient pleasures here at the cost of enduring blessings in the Hereafter. Hence, elects of God appear with a mission- to call our individual and collective attention to the true purpose and correct values of life; inviting us to choose wisely in our time in this transient world; urging us in the strongest terms to do good and resist evil, and recognize the impermanence of earthly life, so as to benefit us in the world to come.
As the Divine Manifestation of our times in the person of Imam- Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International Hazrat Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius completes 23 years this month, the Divinely-inspired messages shared with the world by the Mujaddid of the 15th Century of Islam renews the enduring Highway to God, providing spiritual guidance and enlightenment to seekers of higher wisdom and true values of life. Reproduced Below is such a Divinely-inspired message received by Hazrat Munir A. Azim (aba) on 14 May 2002 at 8.45 pm (Zikr Time):
This universe is unstable and perishable. It is continually changing. It will not be tomorrow as it is today. There is no stability in this world and in Jamaat-Ahmadiyya worldwide. It is the land of death, and like a house of sand it can be destroyed at any time.

Imam Mahdi: A Message for Humanity
Based on his Divinely-gifted deep
insight on international affairs, the Sheikh-ul-Islam (aba) cautions thoughtful
people against the dangers facing humanity when man deviates from the Just Way, start violating the rights of others and curbing their freedoms and interests for unfair advantages, and even commits excesses against fellow men in pursuit of property and riches. A hardening trajectory in sectarian emotions and vengeful group feelings take the shape of simmering national conflicts, and escalating violence in certain regions can verily lead to a third world
war with its horrendous consequences for humanity at large. Given the grim and dire
prospects of whole-scale turbulence everywhere for a period of time, Hazrat
Saheb (aba) counsels the faithful to take stock of food, medicine, and other
basic needs of life and to save money for community /collective purposes- indeed, we need
to be prepared to deal with issues of war-induced shortages and deprivations,
including the protective needs of women and children; everyone is urged to proactively take steps, individually and
collectively, to address likely challenges of a world turning upside down.
Read Extracts from the
Message Below:
The following are the recent
revelations received by the Khalifatullah (aba) on 22 October 2023 after Esha prayer:
Inna-Hudallaahi wa huwal-Huda. Wa ummirna lin-nuslima li
Rabbil-Aalamin.
Allah’s Guidance is the true Guidance. We have been commanded to submit to the Lord of all the Worlds.

Revelations of October 2023
Imam- Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam Hazrat Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius recently shared with the Jamaat, the Revelations he has received from Allah (swt). These divine revelations, like those in the glorious historic past when Allah (swt) spoke with His chosen elects and messengers to humanity, pertain to clear assurances of Divine grace and mercy and protection for the divine mission against all enemies of faith. Allah (swt) being the Best of planners, the evil scheming of those who conspire harm will be frustrated and in vain. Moreover, the divine communications guarantee and foretell that special blessings of help and divine favour would be available for the true helpers of the Divine manifestation in this era as well, Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah.
Against the backdrop of both natural-disasters and man-made disasters visiting various lands, and destroying peace and security everywhere; the Revelations foretell looming dangers of mortal diseases with an unsecure future staring at humankind. It is by joining the Ark of Azim by taking Bia’at at the hands of the Divine Elect of this era that people can save themselves and their families from the great Destruction, Insha Allah, Aameen.
Extracts from the special communications shared by Hazrat Saheb (aba) with disciples and followers in the circle of the Divine manifestation are reproduced below for the attention and spiritual benefit of all those who reflect on subtle verities of Divine message in this era:

The Prophecy about ‘Mathil-e-Massih’
Thursday, September 14, 2023
The Deceit of the Fifth Caliph
Many thoughtful Ahmadis today seek answers for the aforesaid questions in their own midst, despite being deeply aware of the limits of the current system of leadership in the Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya to honestly and frankly address the same. On his part, instead of guiding people on the reality of Divine guidance, the present Caliph, Khalifatul Massih V Mirza Masroor Ahmad Saheb, has been evading and avoiding this question for long through adopting evasive strategies; often ridiculing the intelligence of the questioners and attributing motives to truth seekers who raise this issue of Divine guidance. Against the lessons of history, and the manifest wisdom of Prophetic teachings on the advent of a Mujaddid in a new century of Islam, the Fifth Caliph has been challenging common sense- claiming that Nizam-e-Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya is enough for spiritual guidance for the whole world of Islam even in the new century, and there is no need for a Divinely-inspired Mujaddid for the same!

Massih Maoud Day 2023
Jamaat Ul Sahih Al
Islam International commemorates the 10th of September every year as
the Massih Maoud Day. It was on this day in the year 2010 that the divine
servant of our times and the Supreme Head of the Jamaat Hazrat Muhyiuddin Al
Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius made the important
announcement concerning the Divine command to proclaim himself as the spiritual
representative of this era: the Mujaddid and Massih Maoud of this era,
reinforcing the great chain of the Elects of God from the dawn of history to
the present, Subhaan Allah,
Alhamdulillah, Allah-u-Akbar!
To mark the 13th Anniversary of the Holy Proclamation, Jamaat Ul
Sahih Al Islam in India organized a number of special programmes. In Kerala and Tamil Nadu, Tarbiyyat programmes were organized by the respective branches for the
benefit of members on the occasion, Alhamdulillah. In Tamil Nadu at the Sirajum Munir Masjid, Amir Janab
Saleem Sahib led the special session.
In a message to the
Kerala Jamaat ahead of the programme at the historic Noor’ul Islam Masjid-Mathra,
Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) wrote:
‘Bismillah-ir-Rahim-ir-Rahim
My dear Amir Mukarram
Jamaluddin Sahib, and members of the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam of Kerala - South
Zone,
Assalamoualaikum Warahmatullah Wabarakaatuhu.
It is a great pleasure to hear that you are holding a
special Tarbiyyat Meeting in our Noor'ul Islam Masjid tomorrow evening (10
September 2023). Alhamdulillah, may Allah bless you for having remembered the event of the three Eids which
happened on 10 September 2010. It was Eid-ul-Fitr of the year 2010, coupled
with Eid-ul-Jummah on Friday the 10th, and Allah ordained me to proclaim myself
as the Promised Messiah and Mujaddid of this era. Alhamdulillah, Summa
Alhamdulillah, this was a blessed event which brought about also the awakening
and formation of the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam, Kerala in October 2010. Masha-Allah,
Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar.

The Rope of Allah- 2
This verse of the Quran calls you every time. And you will not be able to achieve this without passing through Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh). That is why in the Quran and also in the Hadiths, more instructions are given to have Muhabbat (love) for Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh). And after that, the subject that comes is that there needs to be a link between the two [for one another]. This is not a separate matter. They are branches of one central subject. As you progress further in this matter, there are still many open paths and many beautiful views ahead. It is like a tree that has its roots well planted in the earth and its branches spread out and each branch shows its own beauty, its own greenery. But despite showing their beauty separately, they are always part of the same tree. And they cannot be separated from their tree. It is exactly the same for the Ummah of Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh). And this is how the Ummah is spread. It blooms and propagates and develops. And all of us together - all Muslims - we are branches of one single being. I try to clarify this subject in reference to the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam, the Jamaat that Allah has given me to bring this unity, to re-establish this Islam. Put in your mind that you are the only beings that are part of me. So: “O green branches of my own being! I am the tree that regained life after receiving water and food from Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh). And I saw a new spring. O people of the Jamaat who are connected with me, you are the flourishing branches of my tree.”

Revelations of 30 July 2023
In this era of great turbulence and confusion in the
moral and spiritual world, out of His great compassion for human beings, Allah (swt)
raised His elect, Hazrat Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius as the Khalifatullah of this era- the high representative of God among the people to
revive and renew the spiritual highway- for the benefit of those seeking the
pure way. To dispel the cobwebs of confusion in comprehending the Divine Mandate, Allah (swt) also conferred on
this humble man of God several spiritual titles, clearly confirming for
the benefit of all people that the Divine manifestation of this era is located
in the circle of his divine mission- the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International. Among the spiritual titles so bestowed on Hazrat Saheb (aba) is the Qur’anic
figure of ‘Dhul Qarnain’, the servant of God who ruled over all the known lands
of his time, Masha Allah, Alhamdulillah,
Allah-u- Akbar!
On Sunday, 30 July 2023~ 11 Muharram 1445 Hijri, Imam- Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International Hazrat Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of Mauritius shared with the members of the Jamaat new revelations received through the Rooh-il-Qudus, Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah. These revelations once again confirms the lofty nature of the divine mission entrusted to Hazrat Saheb (aba) almost two decades ago under the special will and pleasure of Almighty God.
Read the revelations below:
‘Munir Ahmad Azim is the Dhul Qarnain of this age. He is the Holy Founder of Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam. Spiritually, ‘Dhul Qarnain of this age’ applies to Munir Ahmad Azim. Thus besides its historical value, the story is pregnant with great spiritual import.

Revelations of 19 July 2023
In
a special message to members of the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International
today, Hazrat Imam Muhyiuddin Al Khalifatullah Munir Ahmad Azim (aba) of
Mauritius shared recently received Divine revelations, and
issued special guidelines for the social conduct of members; behaviour with
proper respect towards Jamaat system; behaviour with mutual respect and trust
towards each other, reassuring harmony and amity within the spiritual order.
Extracts from the divine message is reproduced below:
Innaaa
arsalnaaka bil-haqqi bashiiranw-wa naziiraa.
We have sent you with the Truth,
as a bearer of glad tidings and as a Warner.
I am a Warner from Allah;
I have been sent in this Era.
The blind and the
seeing are not alike.
The believers have been
called "the living" because by accepting the truth they receive a new
life and the disbelievers are called "the dead" because by rejecting
the prophet of Allah, the Divine manifestation and the truth which is the
elixir of life eternal they bring spiritual death upon themselves.
It is not possible for
the Khalifatullah of this Era to make those who have deliberately shut their
hearts and ears listen to and accept the Divine Message.
Such people spiritually are dead and defunct as those buried in the grave.

An 'Imam' guided by Allah
The Divinely-Elected Imam & True Guidance (Part 2)
“One day We shall call together all human beings with their (respective) Imams; those who are given their record in their right hand will read it (with pleasure), and they will not be dealt with unjustly in the least.” (Al-Isra 17: 72)
Alhamdulillah Summa Alhamdulillah, I continue today the second part of my subject on
the explanation of the verse which I have just recited before you.
Allah says: “those who are given their record in their right hand will read it (with pleasure)” – This is the Quranic metaphor for passing the test of faith and for undergoing all trials successfully. The right hand is a symbol of blessing while the left is that of punishment. Also in the human body the right side enjoys superiority over the left since the tissues of the right side are generally stronger than those of the left.

Divine Message and Our Choices- 2
Guidance & Misguidance: Rewards & Punishments: Part 2
“Those
who reject Allah and hinder from the Path of Allah, for them will We add
penalty to penalty, for that they used to spread mischief.”
(An-Nahl 16: 89)
As
for those who harbour hatred and hinder people from the way of Allah, by
restricting them from listening to the prophet of Allah and to believe in the
Divine Message he has come equipped with, therefore such people invite upon
themselves penalty upon penalty because not only have they disbelieved but they
have also contributed to a larger extent to the ruin of the faith of others,
lying as barriers in their path to forbid them from the way of Allah.
Hell is a place made by Allah to punish the evildoers in the hereafter. Paradise and Hell each has seven levels. The concept of stages or levels in Hell is based on the extent and weight of the sins committed by the sinner and those levels are associated with different kinds of punishments that are both physical and spiritual in nature.

Divine Message and Our Choices
Guidance & Misguidance: Rewards & Punishments
'And Allah’s is the direction of the way, and some (paths) go not straight. And had He willed He would have led you all aright.' (An-Nahl, 16: 10)
As for those who turn their back to the Divine Messages and Messenger, they are those who fall prey to the mirages which the Satan make them see – of a world filled with success and power which are but flimsy and fake.
Had Allah wanted, He could have guided all people on the Straight Path. He has the power to do so. Apart from His Chosen Path, the Path of Righteousness, there are other paths which are crooked and misleading and which do not lead to Allah. This is the trial which He has set upon man, to seek the true path, tread on it and keep walking and striving, despite the great hurdles on the way so that they may accede to none but Allah.

Poem: 'When the Ocean Calls'
When the Ocean calls me in its deep waters,
In it I find the Arms of my Lord inviting me
To the
unknown places of the Known Kingdom,
He is the King and I am His Subject,
Yet He raised me up high to the Pleiades of His
pleasure,
And made me a Prince of peace,
Though I am not His Son,
But He is etched in me like a fiery essence of Love
and Light,
Guiding my every step to fulfilment,
He is my Port of Call, my Haven and Heaven,

The Realm of Divine Revelations- II
The Mysterious & Wonderful Realm of Divine Revelations and the Advent of a Messenger of Allah
'It is not granted to any mortal that Allah should speak to him except through revelation or from behind a veil, or by sending a messenger to reveal by His command what He wills: He is Exalted and Wise.' (Ash-Shuraa 42: 52)
Alhamdulillah Summa Alhamdulillah, I will continue today’s Friday Sermon on the subject
of Divine Revelations and the Advent of a Messenger of Allah.
As I told you last week, the Messenger of Allah is such a recipient which is empty of himself and filled instead with Allah’s Will. He submits himself to the Will of Allah and makes the divine essence control him, in his actions so that he is able to properly transmit the divine messages that he has been commissioned to distribute to his people and to all humanity (especially for the Islamic Prophets and Messengers of Allah - who come after the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (saws) and who follow in his footsteps in order to revive the teachings and commandments of the Quran and his own Sunnan (practices) – i.e., the Sunnan of our Beloved Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh).
