Fear not, Allah is with us

Assalamu’alaikum wrh wbkt

• Maulana said that starting from now, all deviant groups in Islam will be eliminated, only those on Haqq (Truth) will prevail, for Divine support and Power is given only to those who uphold truth – all others will cease to exist. Those who have gone astray have only a short time left to repent and to return to obedience before a major ‘cleansing’ ensues, a ‘cleansing’ that will wipe them out. Even if Allah were to allow, as a punishment, just a single Jinn to wreak havoc in a person’s life, it would surely drive him mad, so what more if other physical and spiritual punishments are also rained down on such a person?

• Those hidden and open enemies of Islam, who believe that they can destroy the religion, will suffer the fate of King Abraha, who wanted to destroy the Ka’aba. Haqq (Truth) will prevail eventually, even if it looks like evil has gained the upper hand momentarily. Allah’s Plan cannot be thwarted – study how the unbelievers planned and plotted against every Divinely Sent one, to no avail.

• One of the signs heralding the appearance of Imam Mahdi (as), is the occurrence of major unrest and conflict in the Arab peninsula. Just before his actual arrival, there will be a great War in that region. Maulana hopes that Imam Mahdi (as) will appear this year, as this year’s Wuquf at Arafah falls on a Friday, making it a Hajjul Akbar, and it has been written that our blessed Saviour will emerge in such a year.

• When asked why the Turkish Prime Minsiter has not offered to intervene militarily in Libya, given that Turkey has a formidable army, which is more than capable of ending the stalemate in a single day, Maulana replied as follows: “The Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan is under the control of the Army. The Army has forbidden him to interfere in Libya, as once Ghaddafi falls, the rightful King of Libya, King Sanusi, will ascend the Throne. That will set a bad precedent in the Middle-East for all those who wish to prevent the return of Kings who rule by the Holy Shariah, and the Army fears that this will trigger the Turkish people to clamour for the return of their rightful King too, as the Turks are unhappy with their government, and more of them are yearning for the return of the King. It is written in the traditional scriptures, that Imam Mahdi (as) will go to Turkey to claim the sacred Holy Relics of the Prophet (saw), and that he will receive it from Sultan Selim of Turkey. Hence the return of the King of Tripoli will signal a return to Shariah for the Kingdom.”

• Look at the ignorance that has enveloped us today – all Arab countries, their citizens and leaders – are turning their backs on Allah’s Holy Shariah, yet they claim to be believers. We are not talking about unbelievers rejecting the Shariah, we are witnessing believers doing so today. Yet, Allah declares any Muslim who rejects the Shariah Law, an unbeliever!

إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَا ٱلتَّوۡرَٮٰةَ فِيہَا هُدً۬ى وَنُورٌ۬‌ۚ يَحۡكُمُ بِہَا ٱلنَّبِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسۡلَمُواْ لِلَّذِينَ هَادُواْ وَٱلرَّبَّـٰنِيُّونَ وَٱلۡأَحۡبَارُ بِمَا ٱسۡتُحۡفِظُواْ مِن كِتَـٰبِ ٱللَّهِ وَڪَانُواْ عَلَيۡهِ شُہَدَآءَ‌ۚ فَلَا تَخۡشَوُاْ ٱلنَّاسَ وَٱخۡشَوۡنِ وَلَا تَشۡتَرُواْ بِـَٔايَـٰتِى ثَمَنً۬ا قَلِيلاً۬‌ۚ وَمَن لَّمۡ يَحۡكُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ فَأُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلۡكَـٰفِرُونَ

It was We who revealed the Torah (to Moses); therein was guidance and light. By its standard have been judged the Jews, by the Prophet who bowed (as in Islam) to Allah’s will, by the Rabbis and the Doctors of Law: for to them was entrusted the protection of Allah’s Book, and they were witnesses thereto: therefore fear not men, but fear Me, and sell not My Signs for a miserable price. If any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are Unbelievers. (Quran 5:44)

Allah says in the Verse above, those who do not judge by the Quran, are Kafirs, the corrupted and the oppressors, and Allah will cut them off, Maulana says.

• This is how the Fight of Armageddon will unfold. There will come an Army from the Yellow Nation (Banu Asfar) to the Valley of Amuqa in the Middle East, to fight the Muslim Army that will gather in Damascus, an Army comprising eighty groups of people who will fill the entire city. The first division of this army will all be martyred, they will be the best martyrs. The second division will be unable to tolerate the battle, and they will leave. The final division will remain and they will achieve the ultimate victory, they will crush the enemy and push forward until they reach Istanbul. The Hand of Mahdi (as) will be with the third division, although physically, Imam Mahdi (as) will be in Istanbul. (Maulana said in a Suhbah on the 20^th of Ramadhan 1426, Sunday, 23^rd Oct 2005, in Lefke, that when Imam Mahdi (as) and Isa (as) comes, one third of Maulana’s followers will die, one third will leave (betray) him, and one third will follow him).

• Don’t fear from the enemy, no matter what they do, for all the deviant ones are not supported by Divine support. Even just a small group of just 12 000 truthful believers, can never be defeated, they can take on the whole world and they will be victorious. When the Prophet (saw) was in the Cave of Thawr with Sayyidina Abu Bakr Siddiq (ra), Allah revealed this Verse to them:

إِلَّا تَنصُرُوهُ فَقَدۡ نَصَرَهُ ٱللَّهُ إِذۡ أَخۡرَجَهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ڪَفَرُواْ ثَانِىَ ٱثۡنَيۡنِ إِذۡ هُمَا فِى ٱلۡغَارِ إِذۡ يَقُولُ لِصَـٰحِبِهِۦ لَا تَحۡزَنۡ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَنَا‌ۖ فَأَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ سَڪِينَتَهُ ۥ عَلَيۡهِ وَأَيَّدَهُ ۥ بِجُنُودٍ۬ لَّمۡ تَرَوۡهَا وَجَعَلَ ڪَلِمَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ ڪَفَرُواْ ٱلسُّفۡلَىٰ‌ۗ وَڪَلِمَةُ ٱللَّهِ هِىَ ٱلۡعُلۡيَا‌ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ

If ye help not (your Leader) (it is no matter): for Allah did indeed help him; when the unbelievers drove him out: he had no more than one companion: they two were in the cave, and he said to his companion “Have no Fear, for Allah is with us”: then Allah sent down His peace upon him, and strengthened him with forces which ye saw not, and humbled to the depths the word of the Unbelievers. But the word of Allah is exalted to the heights: for Allah is Exalted in might, Wise. (Quran 9:40)

• The Verse says: ‘Allah is with us’ – Allah is with Rasulullah (saw) and Allah is with Siddiq (ra). The whole world was against them – the Jews, the Christians and the Arabs – everyone was opposing them, yet Rasulullah (saw) still said to his Companion, “Have no fear!” Why should we live in fear today, when Allah is with us! Let the false ones (eg Shias) stand on the battlefield, they will not find even one Saint supporting them.

• Maulana then went on to reveal a secret in the following Verse, a revelation that will give us hope in these dark times:

وَلَقَدۡ نَصَرَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِبَدۡرٍ۬ وَأَنتُمۡ أَذِلَّةٌ۬‌ۖ فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَشۡكُرُونَ (١٢٣) إِذۡ تَقُولُ لِلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ أَلَن يَكۡفِيَكُمۡ أَن يُمِدَّكُمۡ رَبُّكُم بِثَلَـٰثَةِ ءَالَـٰفٍ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓٮِٕكَةِ مُنزَلِينَ (١٢٤) بَلَىٰٓ‌ۚ إِن تَصۡبِرُواْ وَتَتَّقُواْ وَيَأۡتُوكُم مِّن فَوۡرِهِمۡ هَـٰذَا يُمۡدِدۡكُمۡ رَبُّكُم بِخَمۡسَةِ ءَالَـٰفٍ۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓٮِٕكَةِ مُسَوِّمِينَ

Allah had helped you at Badr, when ye were a contemptible little force; then fear Allah; thus may ye show your gratitude. Remember thou saidst to the Faithful: Is it not enough for you that Allah should help you with three thousand angels (specially) sent down? “Yea”― if ye remain patient and pious, and act aright, even if the enemy should rush here on you in hot haste, your Lord will help you with five thousand angels making a terrific onslaught. (Quran 3:123-125)

Allah had sent 3000 Angels – each with a tailed-Turban, called Musawwimeen in the Verse above – to help the outnumbered believers at the Battle of Badr, and Allah said: “If you are patient, I will send you another 5000 Turbaned Angels to help you.” Maulana revealed that Allah has yet to send this 5000 Angels, and they are poised to descend to help the patient believers in their time of dire need when Imamul ‘Asr Sohibul Zaman (as) is amongst us.

• Truth must always be the highest point in any struggle. No matter how many countries band together to help prop each others’ demonic regimes up, they will never succeed, unless they are supported by the Holy Shariah, for only then will there be benefit for the masses.

• This world cannot bear another year of such injustice and cruelty as we are witnessing around us today, hence Maulana is hoping that Imam Mahdi (as) will emerge this year. The next Hajjul Akbar is in 7 years’ time – the world cannot bear such a burden for 7 more years. Now the fruit is ripe for the picking.

• These are heavenly inspirations and instructions, from the Naqshbandi Golden Chain, and these messages that are brought to believers so that they will not feel deprived of the Mercy of Allah and His Prophet (saw), so that people know that they are never cut off from the Divine Mercy.

• As an example of such merciful inspirations that are meant to help believers, Maulana instructed all mureeds to get a copy of a Qaseedah known as Qul Ya Azeem and to read it, as a preparation for a massive tsunami that is poised to strike us. Do read the instructions concerning this Qaseedah/Do’a, here.

This is the Cave of Thawr, where the Verse 'Fear not, Allah is with us' was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (saw), and his Companion, Abu Bakr Siddiq (ra).

Commentary

• The Christian King, Abraha wanted to destroy the Holy Ka’aba, and he marched from Yemen with his unstoppable army of elephants. No one dared stand in his way. Iin fact, no one even defended the Holy Ka’aba, the residents around the Ka’aba retreated and went to hide in the nearby hills to watch Abraha from afar. Before attacking, the King summoned Abdul Mutallib, the grandfather of Sayyidina Muhammad (saw), and asked him if he had any (final) requests. Abdul Mutallib requested that the 200 camels plundered by Abraha’s troops the day before, be returned to him. Abraha was amazed that Abdul Mutallib was only concerned about his camels, and was not pleading for the safety of the Ka’aba! When asked, Abdul Mutallib replied, “This House (the Ka’aba) does not belong to me. It has an Owner, and He knows very well how to guard and defend it. He has no need of my protection, if He likes, He will save it, if He likes, He will let it be destroyed. That is none of my concern. All I want are my camels, they are my rightful property, so please return them to me.”

• Today there are those, who, like Abraha, want to destroy Islam. By manipulating the media, and corrupting the minds of the Community, especially the young ones, they hope to spread secularism and heedlessness amongst the Muslim society. They work beneath the surface, so subtly and subconsciously, that we do not realize that we are being corrupted. So many cartoons, childrens’ books, TV shows, movies, songs and newspaper articles have hidden permissive, immoral and Godless values, being propagated by them. Just as Abraha felt invincible with his elephant army, today, the enemies of Islam feel unstoppable as they wield considerable power – they have money, armies, governments, weapons and the latest technology to ‘spy’ electronically on those they seek to destroy. They control the media and politicians, and with these humungous ‘elephants’, they are dead certain of victory, just as Abraha was. They cannot foresee the stunning and humiliating defeat that lies ahead, as they move in for the kill. Allah wiped out Abraha’s army in the most painful and woeful manner, using just tiny birds to annihilate the massive elephants.

• Allah says in Surah Al-Asr

وَٱلۡعَصۡرِ. إِنَّ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ لَفِى خُسۡرٍ. إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ وَتَوَاصَوۡاْ بِٱلۡحَقِّ وَتَوَاصَوۡاْ بِٱلصَّبۡرِ

By (the Token of) time (through the Ages), verily Man is in loss, except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of (Haqq) Truth, and of Patience and Constancy. (Quran 103:1-3)

It is amazing that Maulana speaks of believers who are on Haqq and who are patient, as these Verses above state that, besides these two groups, the rest are at a loss. The Way of Naqshbandi is also known as the Haqqani Way and it is the aim of every mureed to be on Haqq, as is the aim of every one of the Ahlul Sunnah wal Jema’ah. And it is the patient ones who will receive Angelic help, the Musawwimeen. So all of Mankind are striving for a futile end, except those on the Truth, and those who patiently persevere to establish and uphold Divine Truth. When Imamul ‘Asr Sohibul Zaman (as) emerges, then these two groups mentioned in Surah al-‘Asr, will see the fruit of their endeavours.

• In the Cave, the Prophet (saw) said to his Companion that ‘Allah is with us’. Maulana said that Allah is with Prophet (saw) and Allah is with Siddiq (ra), and we are blessed to be with the Siddiq of our times; we are with the Inheritor of the Prophet (saw) and Inheritor of the Secrets of Heart of Siddiq, of our Zaman, so why are we afraid of anyone, why are we afraid of upholding the Truth (Haqq)? We must always remind ourselves not to fear, for Allah is with us, and His help is always near.

أَلَآ إِنَّ نَصۡرَ ٱللَّهِ قَرِيبٌ۬

Ah! verily the help of Allah is (always) near! (Quran 2:214)

فَلَا تَخۡشَوُاْ ٱلنَّاسَ وَٱخۡشَوۡنِ

Therefore fear not men, but fear Me (Quran 5:44)

The Musawwimeen are poised, let us await patiently.

(Please pray for us, and forgive us for any shortcomings in our humble effort to paraphrase Maulana’s words, which in reality, is an impossible task. So please forgive us for our inability to convey a perfect presentation. May Allah forgive us, and bless you!)
