Poem: 'The Elusive Presence'

 

Oh elusive presence, where are you

If you are not with me then where are you

 

My eyes are illuminated by you

My heart is also acquainted by you

 

Come and invite my eyes and heart

Otherwise draw a sword and take my life

 

From all the beauty

and gifts of the universe

I see naught but half a life

 

Why not lose what remains with you

As without you

I do not need a hundred lives

Humanity in Danger!

يَوْمَ يَغْشٰىهُمُ الْعَذَابُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِنْ تَحْتِ اَرْجُلِهِمْ وَيَقُوْلُ ذُوْقُوْا مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَ 

On the day when the punishment will overwhelm them from above them and from below their feet, and it will be said “Taste what you used to do.” [Al-Ankabut,  29: 56]

 

Actually around the world the situation is very critical with many kinds of divine punishments being witnessed in all forms. The world became engulfed in a spread of a never-seen-before mortal virus which mutated from 2019 to this day [2022] and which claimed millions of human lives around the world. In addition to this there were destructive cyclones, floods, and earthquakes which destroyed towns, villages and countries with a blast of the utmost fury. The list of calamities striking this world does not end here, and since the beginning of the Divine Manifestation in Mauritius in the New Millennium, I kept telling you and the world at large how life will change, how difficult times are surely coming. So, the list of calamities experienced in this world since the new millennium is very long. 

 

Now let us analyse the verse which I have just recited before you about what Allah (swt) wants to make us understand. Before I come to explain on the verse, let me put before you the revelation which Allah (swt) has sent down on this humble self on Wednesday 09 March 2022 at 11.25 am Mauritian Time:

 وَلَوْلَآ اَجَلٌ مُّسَمًّى لَّجَاۤءَهُمُ الْعَذَابُۗ وَلَيَأْتِيَنَّهُمْ بَغْتَةً وَّهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُوْنَ  

 

Where Allah said [and I know that it is found in the Holy Quran]: 'And had it not been for an appointed term, the torment would indeed have come to them; and indeed it will definitely come upon them suddenly, and catch them unawares.'

‘Wahi’: ‘Come into the Ark of Azim’

 

‘Turbulence has appeared on land and sea in consequence of people’s misdeeds, that Allah may afflict them with the consequences of their misconduct, so that they may turn back from evil.’ (30:42) 

 

Human kind is facing extremely dangerous times: ecologically, politically, and socially. Western developmental model of hedonistic consumption has put global environment and the atmosphere under siege; global warming and climate change are a painful reality of our times. Extreme weather events that are happening all around call our attention to the humongous threats looming over humanity’s very survival on earth. Coupled with the destruction of the environment, violence and bloodletting are increasing on an exponential scale all across the world. Societies are splintered on ethnic, religious, regional and sectarian lines, with brutal majoritarianism trumping over the dignity and rights of the human person. Likewise, powerful nations are seeking to subjugate other nations in their midst. 

Consider the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine. Instead of resolving disputes through diplomacy and negotiations, through settlements and agreements that acknowledge the interests and concerns of each other; nations that share a common history and legacy are at war with one another. And more worryingly, the present war threatens to unleash forces than can escalate the situation further, and thereby, even engulf the whole of Europe and beyond into a quagmire of utter destruction. With nuclear-armed States on both sides of the divide, people who have eyes to perceive warn about Dooms Day scenario as only the logical consequence of the sheer madness on display.  

 

In this context, it is important to reflect on the Divine revelations received by Imam- Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam Hazrat Khalifatullah Al Mahdi Munir Ahmad Azim Saheb (aba) of Mauritius on Saturday 05 March 2022. The Divine message warns humanity about the gathering storm of war. Destructive chaos will disrupt everyday lives on an unprecedented scale, affecting and impacting people everywhere. The extraordinary Divine communication reveals several signs of the events to unfold in the near future- ‘rivers of blood’, as it were; the terrible destruction that will transform men and women and their nations. May Allah (swt) destroy the fangs of evil, and safeguard all believers everywhere; enable them to flock under the flag of true spirituality and humanity, i.e., the ‘Ark of Azim’ in this era, Insha Allah, Aameen.

World War III is very near. Birds have come to announce me these messages. Many men will die. There will be rivers of blood.

Dawat-i-Illallah: Muslims & The Truth

 

The Holy Quran presents the steadfast pursuit of truth as the central stand of Islam, even as it views Kufr as the supreme falsehood. It calls on the believer not to cover truth with falsehood or to knowingly conceal the truth. Truthfulness was the first qualification of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), and it remains the final saving grace of those who would be his followers. No man can claim to be a Muslim if he is a liar.

 

It is recorded that the Holy Prophet (pbuh) has stated that four categories of men and women stand excommunicated from the fold of Islam: those who lie, those who bear false witness, those who break a trust reposed in them, and those who commit adultery. All are guilty of crimes that the Quran includes in the term “falsehood”. And how do we believers of today fare in the light of this first criterion of Islam?
