THE NEED OF THE HOUR - A'MAL ! A'MAL ! A'MAL !

The need of the hour, I feel is Yaqeen translated into action.

OHBAT has reached such a stage that mere yaqeen will not suffice. I salute all those, who with yaqeen that 'YES WE CAN' at the same time, are also giving their time, expending their energy, sharing their expertise and most important, amongst them, are many noble souls, who are sharing their wealth. They are sharing because thy are 'caring'

Our community, at this critical juncture, needs 'awakened souls' who have been blessed with wealth. This wealth according to them, is not only as a result of their business acumen or hard work, but according to them largely on account of the Doa Mubarak and 'nazarat e rahima' of Aqa Moula (TUS)

Many of them have confided, that in the past years, as a result of Aqa Moula's frequent visits to their homes and shops, that they have been blessed with abundance and enjoying prosperity. It was on account of the efforts and magnanimity of our respected elders, in the near past, resulting in Aqa Moula's visits to this city.
We to this day remember those noble mumineen, who thought of the welfare of the entire community. They rose in stature and life, and with them, they helped many in earning abundance and better lifestyle and wealth.


These well do to class, in the past have been traveling with their families for Ashara Mubaraka to places like Houston, Dubai Mombasa etc: to receive the barakat, and also spend quality time, visiting tourist attractions and shopping.

With the ongoing OHBAT in our city I feel, this time it is different.
IT HAS TO BE DIFFERENT.
Many amongst them are coming forward to share their wealth, so that their fellow mumineen, who have not been able to partake of the barakats, can be blessed, and their lives change for the better, in all respects. They have come forward willingly to be catalysts, knowing their wealth will not diminish, but by their sharing of wealth, they will be able to usher in change for the better, for the entire community.
I SALUTE THESE AWAKENED NOBLE SOULS.

It is A'mals (our actions) by which Moula Ali (SA) will recognize each mumin and munafiq, at the time when our souls bid fare well of our earthly bodies.

Today is Saturday and each week on Saturdays I recite the Abaya't sharifa - 'ya Haris e Hamdana... (saneechar no divas Moulana Ali (SA) par masal chhe - my reason for recitation) So in the context of this post, I request you to click on the video link below :

Mumineen, we will be recognized by Moula Ali (SA) by our a'mals. Our a'mals towards the tameer of Masjid and our ohbat for Ashara Mubaraka 1431H will be recognized, this is our yaqeen. So for our own good and better 'akherat' we should make the best use of this opportunity.

We are preparing to invite mumineen from around the world. Each city and country has its uniqueness, and it is our duty to showcase it, so that when they return, they go back with fond memories.

Bengal has been a land of 'awakened souls' and one of the great figure amongst them is the Nobel Laureate Rabidnranath Tagore. Today I am feeling very spiritual, and here I share with you a beautiful poem of his from Rabindra Rachnavali.

This poem illustrates aptly the feelings and aspirations of many amongst us, who are doing OHBAT.

'Time after time I came to your gate with raised hands,
asking for more and yet more.
You gave and gave, now in slow measure, now in sudden excess.
I took some, and some things I let drop; some lay heavy on my hands;
some I made into playthings and broke them when tired;
till the wrecks and the hoard of your gifts grew immense, hiding You
and the ceaseless expectation wore my hear out.

Take, oh take has now become my cry


Shatter all from this beggar's bowl: put out this lamp of the importunate watcher:
hold my hands, raise me from the still gathering heap of your gifts
into the bare infinity of your uncrowded presence.

ALHAMDOLILAH !! THE TIME HAS COME TO BE LIFTED INTO THE BARE INFINITY OF
AQA MOULA'S UNCROWDED PRESENCE.

Friends, do you need proof of this. Look around and you will find, many living proof amongst us. Many have experienced and spoken thus or in similar vein : "Moula ye mari taraf ehvi meethi nazar thee joyu, ke itlee bheer na ba-vazood emaj ehsas thayo ke mara Moula chhe ane mein, aa manzar hazi bhee mari ankhon samne taja chhe'

FRIENDS THE GLORIOUS MOMENT IS JUST ON THE HORIZON. SACRIFICE YOUR ALL - REACH OUT AND FOR EVER BE BLESSED.

Even as you close your eyes contemplate and make decisive niyat to share for the common good of the community, you will feel the radiating spirituality of the uncrowded presence of Aqa Moula (TUS)

JUST GIVE IT A TRY -do share your experience.

  1. It is said in one of Syedi Sadiqali's Nasihat: Ehsaan woh bashar nu chhe khaliq ni zaat per,mumin ni parvari ma jeh dolat fanaa kare. Who is Khaliq? Certainly it is none but Allah. Now would any one like to miss the opportunity to oblige Him by serving His Best Creation with one's own means and merchandise, and money and/or at all otherwise?

    The health of the wealth is wealth used for supreme cause.
