AKHTAR N JANJUA

Allah created humans from a male and a female and made into tribes and nations for identification. However the most righteous is the most honoured. No Arab has any superiority over a non-Arab nor is a White any way better than a Black. All created beings are the decendants of Adam and existence of Adam sprang from dust. hence all claims to superiority and greatness, all demands for blood or ransom and all false traits or trends of rule are false.

WA LA TAFFARAQU - 26

As-Salaam-O-alaykum, wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh.

 
All praises for Allah Karim;  Whom we must worship for 'Him Alone' !

Darood-o-Salam on Prophet ﷺ because Allah Karim  ordained us to do that !

Peace upon Prophet's (ﷺ)  family, company, successors and those who follow his path.
 
 
This post has seen quite an interval from the last on the subject. I pray that the future Posts appear regularly till we finish with the subject. Let us start with a Quranic Prayer:
Allah Karim, do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake! Our Lord, do not place on us a burden like the one You placed on those before us! Our Lord, do not place on us a burden we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy on us. You are our Lord and Sustainer, so help us against those who deny the truth. AL-BAQARA (2) : 286.
So we start from where we had left off with the qualities of Muflihoon as per Quran :
33.     They harbor no jealousy in their hearts for what has been given to others.
34.   They give preference to others over themselves, even if they too are needy.
AL-HASHAR (59) : 9.

35.     When the prayer is ended, They disperse in the land and seek to obtain [something] of Allah's bounty.
36.     They remember Allah Karim.
AL-JUMU'A (62) : 10.

37.     They remain mindful of Allah as best as they can.
38.     They listen and obey.
39.     They spend in charity.
40.     They guard themselves against their own greed.
AT-TAGHABUN (64) : 16.


May we all be amongst the 'Muflihoon' and May we guard against the Greed, a sources for most of the vices and sins. AAmeen.


 .................IN SHA ALLAH, SHALL CONTINUE..........

DOES GOD EXIST ?

As-Salaam-O-alaykum, wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh.

I just finished/published my Post ALLAH KARIM - 4 describing proofs of Allah Karim's existence through human nature that I came across this interesting write up. Read and reflect :

Buddha was gathered together with his disciples one morning, when a man came up to him:
‘Does God exist?’ he asked.
‘He does,’ replied Buddha.
 After lunch, another man came up to him. 
Does God exist?’ he asked.
‘No, He doesn’t,’ said Buddha.
 Later that afternoon, a third man asked the same question: 
‘Does God exist?’
‘That’s for you to decide,’ replied Buddha.
 As soon as the man had gone, one of his disciples remarked angrily: 
But that’s absurd, Master! How can you possibly give such different answers to the same question?’
'Because they are all different people, and each one of them will reach God by his own path. 
The first man will believe what I say.  
The second will do everything he can to prove me wrong. 
The third will only believe in what he is allowed to choose for himself.'

MAY ALLAH KARIM MAKE US FOLLOW OUR FITRAH (NATURE) AND ENABLE US TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE IF WE HAVE TO CHOSE : AAMEEN.

ALLAH KARIM - 4

As-Salaam-O-alaykum, wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh.

Allah SWT Says :
It is He Who brought you forth from the wombs of your mothers when ye knew nothing; and He gave you hearing and sight and intelligence and affections: that ye may give thanks (to Allah).
Do they not look at the birds, held poised in the midst of (the air and) the sky? Nothing holds them up but (the power of) Allah. Verily in this are signs for those who believe.
AN-NAHL (16) : 77-78.
Having discussed the Intellectual Proof of Allah Karim's existence let us see how Human Nature (Fitrah) provides the proof :

When faced with calamities, man has the instinct to call upon “Allah Karim”. This is because as humans we are created to be as such and most agree that a person’s “self” calling upon a “supreme being” in extreme situations is part of man’s nature. Allah reminds us in the Quran that this natural instinct (Fitrah) of us calling upon Allah is part of Adam’s creation. He says in the Quran:
(Remember) when your Lord brought forth from the Children of Adam, from their loins, their seed and made them testify as to themselves (saying), “Am I not your Lord?” They said, “Yes! We testify."  AL-AARAAF (7) : 172
He also says:
(Remember) Ayub (Job), when he cried to his Lord, “Verily, distress has seized me, and You are the Most Merciful of all those who show mercy. So We answered his call. We removed the distress that was on him. We restored his family to him and the like thereof along with them as a mercy from Ourselves and a Reminder for all who worship Us. AL-ANBIYA (21) : 83-84
Even Firawn (Pharaoh), who is famous for his pretense of denying the (existence of) Allah Karim, was convinced about it inwardly. Allah says in the Quran about Firawn and his people:
They belied them (those verses and signs) wrongfully and arrogantly, though their own selves were convinced thereof. AN-NAML (27) : 14
Again, not only we sense our instincts to call upon Allah in extreme situations, Allah’s reminding us of this facet of our nature in the Quran is another proof of His existence and as our Creator.
In the next Post we shall In Sha Allah discuss Proof through other (Divine) Religions (Judaism and Christianity).

ALLAH KARIM ONLY IS 'THE DISPOSER OF AFFAIRS' - PLACE YOUR UNEQUIVOCAL TRUST IN HIM !

As-Salaam-O-alaykum, wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh.

Allah SWT Says :
............And put your trust in Allah Karim as enough for you is HE SWT as a Disposer of Affairs. AN-NISA (4) : 81.
Life in this mortal world is characterized by a sustained scramble to survive, succeed and prosper. It requires persistency, industry and singular sincerity of purpose with a very vibrant thought process. Innumerable vistas exist....illuminated and straight.....and shadowed by acute darkness and fraught with fraud. 

The 'Disposer of Affairs' wants us to TRY and there is a promise of very genuine AWARD or REWARD dependent upon the endeavor. MOST OF THE MANKIND BELIEVES IN THIS....yet most of it is sidetracked too as its indulgence seeks many other DISPOSERS.

We keep experiencing this throughout our lives that THINGS HAPPEN ONLY THE WAY PROVIDENCE WANTS THEM TO......yet we are generally anxious, looking for the short cuts with the killing expectation that THINGS MUST HAPPEN as WE WANT THEM TO.  

If our expectations materialize WE WORKED FOR IT and if otherwise; then SOMEBODY UNDID US.....Belief regarding 'Disposer of Affairs' stays in the oblivion.

Yesternight during Trawih Prayers penultimate recited Surah was FAATIR and in the second Ayat, Allah Karim Says for all of us :
What Allah out of his Mercy does bestow on people there is none [who] can withhold: And what He SWT does withhold, there is none [who] can grant, apart from Him: and He is the Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom.

May we all work for our cause with utmost sincerity and May we all place our Trust in the Disposer of Affairs for the legitimate REWARD. 

AAMEEN.

LONG WAY FROM HOME !

Assalamu-Alaikum !

18th Day of Ramadhan Karim Mubarik - everyone. 

What a month? Loyalty, Control, Patience, Industry and "I AM ON" personified.  Quest is Allah Karim's pleasure and even the HALAL is 'a refrain' for most part of 24 Hours. 

Friends; since SEHAR I am in a strange HAAL (milieu), 'Long Way from Home' in a 'Celestial Company'......(and I want to take you along).

There is an uninterrupted stream of 'FLASH BACKS'..BADAR..CONQUEST OF MAKKAH.....GRAVES OF EXALTED ONES IN SYRIA......ADI BIN HAJAR staring in the face of DIGGERS and telling them here I am fresh as a ROSE after 1400 years, IF THIS DOESN'T MAKE YOU 'SUBMIT' NOTHING WILL....BECAUSE 'THE STAMP HAS BEEN AFFIXED' ON YOU.

There is MAQAM-E-BADAR and NUSRAT-E-KHUDAWANDI.........Unarmed, poor and weak Mohajiroon, Awosis and Khazrajis; 313 only before the battle hardened, skillful swordsmen, champion archers and hate filled 1000 of Quresh with all their might......dusted in the brown dust of Badar at the hands of same unarmed, poor and weak.

There is URWA BIN MASOOD SAQFI pleading at Hudaibiya saying O Prophet ﷺ be our leader and forget about these MOHAJIROON and ANSAAR as they will desert you on which the mild and compassionate Abu Bakr takes out his sword saying O YOU WORSHIPER OF LAAT what did you say? Restrained only by Prophet ﷺ ... And then there is MUGHIRA (for whom once URWA had paid BLOOD MONEY for 13 murders) shoving URWA away from Prophet ﷺ when as per the tradition of Arabs URWA touched the beard of Prophet ﷺ.

See when the agreement of Hudaibiya is being drafted and the leader of Quresh delegation is Sohail Bin Amr whose own son ABU-JANDAL walks in chained, bruised and tortured shouting "I BEAR WITNESS THAT THERE IS NO GOD BUT ALLAH AND MUHAMMAD ﷺ IS ALLAH KARIM'S SERVANT AND PROPHET."

There are Khubaib, Summaiya (Aale Yasir) laying their lives for the truth. 

There is Bilal under extreme torture proclaiming 'AHAD AHAD' (There in only one God) persistently. 

There is Sumaira rushing like a gushing wind towards the Prophet ﷺ when some one intercepts her telling that your husband and sons have embraced Martyrdom....SHE RETORTS BACK 'Thousands be sacrificed on the name of Muhammad ﷺ in the way of TRUTH.......some one whispers :

حسنِ یوسف پہ کٹیں مصر میں انگُشتِ زناں
سر کٹاتے ھیں تیرےﷺ نام پہ مردانِ عرب۔

There you see the Khyber falling. 

Khalid Bin Walid, Ikrama bin Abu Jahl and many other coming to the fold of TRUTH.

There the Caravan of Truth enters Makkah from where once it was forced to leave in the darkness of night. There you see the Idols falling....and there you see the Grace, The Mercy, The Compassion, The Forgiveness, the Humility, The Submission all in their glittering galore. NO REVENGE, NO HATE and NO HASTE.......ONLY GRATITUDE FOR ALLAH KARIM and LOVE AND MERCY FOR ALL.........AND IT IS RAMADHAN KARIM !

Wondering I ask the ever-pensive Iqbal as to how quickly those men and women had fathomed and became the living exegesis of that what you had to remind us 1300 years later :
کی محمدﷺ سے وفا تو نے تو ھم تیرے ھیں
یہ جہاں چیز ھے کیا؟ لوح و قلم تیرے ھیں۔
The serene ABD-ALLAH looks up and says :
نھیں ھے ناامید اقبال اپنی کشتِ ویراں سے
ذرا نم ھو تو یہ مٹی بڑی ذرخیز ھے ساقی۔
and goes on : 
شب گریزاں ھو گی آخر جلوۂِ خورشید سے
یہ چمن معمور ھو گا نغمۂِ توحید سے۔

IN SHA ALLAH.

آج کی دعا !

اے اللّٰہ کریم ! مجھے اپنی محبت اور اُس شخص کی محبت، جِس نے تجھ سے محبت رکھی، اور جو تجھ سے محبت رکھتا ھے، اور اُس عمل کی محبت جو تیری محبت کے قریب پہچانے والا ھو ۔ عطا فرما 


اے بارِ اِلٰہی ! اپنی محبت کو میرے نزدیک پیاسے کو پانی کی محبت سے زیادہ محبوب بنا دے 

اے اللّٰہ کریم ! مجھے ساغرِ نبوی ﷺ سے ایسا جام پِلا جس کے پینے کے بعد مجھے کویٔ پیاس نہ رھے


!اے الرحم الراحمین ! تیرا کرم درکار ھے 

!آمین ! بحقِ طہٰ و یاسین ﷺ

  !بجاہِ یا اللّٰہُ،یا اللّٰہُ ، یا نُورُ، یا رحمانُ، یا ذوالجلالِ والاکرام
