Whenever a Khalifa of Allah appears, angels descent with him and they will guide
eager hearts to the recognition of the Divine Manifestation. This subtle and
profound spiritual reality was articulated and confirmed by the Promised Massih
Hadhrat Ahmad
(as) himself. Today, we
are witnessing the fulfillment of this eternal Divine Law through the lived
experiences of common believers in Mauritius ,
in India
and elsewhere who have recognized Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib as the Chosen Messenger of Allah of this era.
“Let
it be known that it is the
established custom of Allah that whenever a Messenger, a Prophet or an
appointed recipient of Divine Revelation is sent for the reformation of
mankind, it becomes imperative that he is accompanied by such angels who
instill guidance in all loving hearts. They induce the hearts towards
goodness. They continue to
descend until the darkness of profanity and corruption gives way to the break
of the dawn of faith and truthfulness. The Almighty God says:
“The
angels and the Spirit descend upon them by the command of their Lord with their
Lord’s decrees concerning every matter. It is all peace, till the break of the
dawn”. (Surah Al Qadr, 97:5-6).
So the appearance of the
angels and the Holy Spirit only takes place at the advent of a person
of distinction, who is dressed in the garb of Khilafat and honored with a
direct communion with God. This Khalifa is specially gifted with the Holy
Spirit and the angels in attendance are deputed to descend on all pious hearts.
The reflection of this heavenly glow falls on people of receptive talent, and
consequently the whole world is engulfed in the dazzle of this intense light.
As a
result of the noble influence of the angels, the hearts of such people are
voluntarily inclined towards virtuous thoughts and are thus charmed by the
concept of the Unity of God. Upright hearts are charged with the inclination
towards the search of truth. The spiritually frail are granted fortitude. Everywhere a breeze begins to
blow which is supportive to the objectives of the Mujaddid. An invisible hand
is beckoning humanity so that they of themselves are hastening towards that
reform which will bring out the best of their talents. Mankind is in a state of
agitation and stir in anticipation of what is to come.
At
that juncture, the ignorant contemplates that the world has taken a turn for
the better, all by itself. Indeed, this reformation is the result of the
efforts of those angels who
appear along with the Khalifa of Allah (Khalifa-tullah) and confer extraordinary powers upon people to understand and
accept the Truth. They awaken the masses from their
slumber, alert the careless, grant hearing to the deaf, quicken the dead and
raise the entombed out of their graves. Then, people suddenly begin to open
their eyes and those issues that were, until this time, concealed from their
hearts begin to unravel. In reality, these angels are not different from this Khalifa of Allah (Khalifa-tullah). They are indeed a reflection of the Divine illumination on
his face and manifestations of his endurance towards his mission. Such a person
may be physically distant or nigh, he may be an acquaintance or totally alien,
yet all are attracted with a magnetic force provided the capacity of
reformation is present in them….”
As
eloquently confirmed by the Promised Massih (as), angels guide the truth
seekers in the time of a Khalifatullah. Today, in this new century of Islam and
Ahmadiyyat, we are witnessing extraordinary testimonials in favour of the
Divine Manifestation in Mauritius ;
People in distant lands are virtually being guided by signs and dreams. It is
astonishing to hear about the dreams and signs of the believers in the era of
the new Divine Manifestation.
