'Ummah': The Rope of Allah

   

'And hold firmly to the rope of Allah and do not be divided. Remember Allah’s favour upon you when you were enemies, then He united your hearts, so you - by His grace - became brothers. And you were at the brink of a fiery pit and He saved you from it. This is how Allah makes His revelations clear to you, so that you may be (rightly) guided.' (Al-e-Imran, 3: 104)

Take hold of the rope of Allah together as one united body. Not one by one, No! But take hold of it collectively. In fact, this refers to the verse of the Quran that I have just recited before you and which I have developed previously in many of my sermons, speeches and books.

 

Now I want to draw special attention to what is said in the Quran, whereby Allah does not mention “Catch or Hold” the rope, but rather says “Grip firmly to/ Hold fast to” the rope collectively. This is the answer to many people who say, ‘We are good Muslims, we have firmly grasped the Quran, we are doing everything that Allah has told us to do and we are not doing anything that Allah has forbidden us to do and we are following every teaching, so why is the need for a community, why do we need to attach ourselves with a Jamaat (as one Community of Believers)?’

 

In one word, the Quran gives the answer. Allah says that it is not enough for you to lay down your hand to touch and hold the Quran individually. You need to hold this book collectively, as a Jamaat, so that the Oneness of Allah is manifested in this world as well. Just like Allah is One, thus all the people who believe in Him should also become One (united). I am dealing with this subject in reference to Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh), (for all of you) to put the Quran into practice directly, where it will be possible only when a person gains knowledge of the Quran directly. In order to do everything that the Quran and the Holy Prophet (pbuh) have commanded us to do and to refrain from what they have forbidden us to do, it is necessary to have a deep knowledge of the Quran. We need to have this deep knowledge to put those teachings into practice in the way that Allah wants.

'Ashura' Day and the Muslims

 

10 Muharram: The Day of ‘Ashura

 

'...Like you all know, today we are the 9th of Muharram 1445 Hijri, and tomorrow 10th of Muharram will be the Day of Ashura here in Mauritius. The Day of Ashura commemorates the victory of Moses over Pharaoh, and the Muslims were commanded by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) to fast it as they had more rights on Moses (as) than did the Jews. 

In a Hadith narrated by Hazrat Abu Musa (ra), he said that the day of ‘Ashura’ was considered as Eid day by the Jews. So the Prophet (pbuh) ordered to all Muslims, “I recommend you (Muslims) to fast on this day.” (Bukhari)

A Mosque for Allah

 

The Houses of Allah: Part 5

 

Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah, I continue today my sermon on Mosques. Today I will talk about the donation of mosques and some important mosque rules which we should all bear in mind.

 

Donation of a Mosque

 

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “When a man dies, his actions come to an end except for three things: ‘Continuous Charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him’.” (Muslim)

 

The greatest example of Sadaqah Jariyah is the construction of a Mosque in the name of the deceased, the reward of which he or she will get in the Hereafter.

 

Uthman ibn Affan (ra) reported: The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, “Whoever builds a mosque for Allah, Allah will build for him a house like it in Paradise.” (Bukhari, Muslim)

Revelations of 30 July 2023

  

According to the Holy Qur’an, the emergence of a pious and holy man among the people is a great sign of Divine mercy and kindness for the community. By accepting a man of God, you stand to gain clear moral guidance and practical role model for embracing the Divine path, which in its turn offers felicity in this world and salvation and eternal well being in the hereafter. 

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.
