Holy Night of Laila-tul-Qadar – Holy Month of Ramdhan 2009

Every Muslim knows that a Holy Night of Laila-tul-Qadar comes in the last part of the holy month of Ramdhan in odd nights. The importance of Ibadat in this holy night is equal to Ibadat of one thousand months. In this holy night during the month holy month of Ramdhan, revelation of Holy Quran to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) started and also completed in this holy night. In this holy night, Angels and Souls of all past Messengers and Prophets (AS) come down to the earth with great blessings of Almighty Allah to shower on those who are found doing Ibadat in this holy night.

During this holy month of Ramdhan, the holy night of Laila-tul-Qadar is surely coming in one of the odd nights i.e. 29th  night of holy month of Ramdhan. More clearly stating is that after having Iftari of 28th Fast of  Ramdhan, the starting night is surely the holy night of Laila-tul-Qadar in the current month of  Ramdhan - 2009.

Who deserve blessings of Almighty Allah are those who keep true love with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) and his Ahle Bait Athaar (AS). Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) of Holy Prophet (SAWAW) include Hazrat Ali-al Murtaza (AS), Lady of Jannah Hazrat Syeda Fatima-tu-Zahra (SA), Hazrat Syed Imam Hassan (AS), Hazrat Syed Imam Hussain (AS). Besides. Leaders of Abstainers from holy geneology of Holy Prophet (SAWAW) also include Hazrat Syed Imam Zain-al Abideen (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Muhammad Baqir (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Jaffer Sadiq (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Moosa Kazim (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Ali Raza (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Muhammad Taqi (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Ali Naqi (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Hasan Askari (AS) and Hazrat Imam Syed Muhammad Mehdi (AS). Those who keep any kind of hate against these Leaders of Abstainers fail to receive blessings of Almighty Allah in this holy night even if they keep themselves busy in doing Ibadat throughout the night. It must be kept in mind that Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) is most beloved to Almighty Allah and holy personalities of Ahle Bait Athaar (AS), as named above, are most beloved to Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam). There is clear saying of Holy Prophet (SAWAW), “who keep enemity with my Ahle Bait Athaar (AS), are at enemity with me”. In another holy saying, the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) said: “He is liar who claims to love me but hates my Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) especially Maula Ali-al-Murtaza (AS). Keeping true love with Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) of Holy Prophet (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) is an Quranic order. Awliya Allah (Friends of Allah) do keep true love with Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) and doubtlessly receive blessings of Almighty Allah and get excellent ranks from Almighty Allah as well as His nearness.

To seek forgiveness of Almighty Allah for the sins, committed knowingly or unknowingly, holy night of Laila-tul-Qadar is a great reward from Almighty Allah for Ummah of Holy Prophet (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam). Ummati is he whom Holy Prophet (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) accepts as his ummati himself. No Muslim has the right to be called ummati of the Holy Prophet (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) until and unless he abides by the holy sayings of Holy Prophet (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) stated in dignity of his Ahle Bait Athaar (AS).

In this holy night of Laila-tul-Qadar, do Ibadat of whatsoever type but prefer to offer Durood-o-Salaam on Holy Prophet (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) and his Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) as much as possible because this is what Almighty Allah and His Angels do.

Brief Biography of Hazrat Peer Shah Bashir Ahmad Sarkar Noor Allah Marqadah

Biography Hazrat Peer Saif Ali (RA), father to the Chief Qalander of all Qalander Hazrat Peer Shah Bashir Ahmad Alvi Sarkar Owaisi Qadri Qalandri Panjtani Daimial Huzoori Noor Allah Marqadah, belonging to a very noble and pious family used to live in Kashmir. One day Hazrat Peer Syed Mehr Ali Gillani Chishti Nizami Owaisi (RA) visited Kashmir to attend a religious gathering held at his mureed who invited Shah Sahib. Peer Saif Ali (RA) was always very eager to have the opportunity to see Awliya Allah. As he came to know, he went to see Hazrat Peer Syed Mehri Ali (RA). In his first sight, Peer Saif Ali (RA) fell into true love and aqeedat with Shah Sahib. Shah Sahib called him near him and opportuned him to sit alongside him for longer period. At last, Hazrat Peer Saif Ali (RA) love to become Mureed of Shah Sahib and requested him to his bait. While taking bait, Shah Sahib blessed Peer Saif Ali (RA) with holy ziarat of Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW). After two or three days’ stay at Kashmir, Shah Sahib came back to Golra Shareef, Rawalpindi. While taking bait, Shah Sahib filled the heart of Peer Saif Ali (RA) with his love and after Shah Sahib was back to Rawalpindi, Peer Saif Ali (RA) started to remain gloomy due to separation of his Peer-Murshad. After few days, Peer Saif Ali (RA) reached Golra Shareef and requested his Peer-o-Murshad to let him live in his feet and allow him to provide him 24 hour humble service. Shah Sahib happily allowed him to live with at Golra Shareef and time kept passing. One night, Shah Sahib, after Esha Prayer, prayed to Almighty Allah to send a Wali Allah with unique and unmatched walayat. The same night Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) blessed Shah Sahib with His Ziarat and informed good news that his prayer has been accepted by Almighty Allah. Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) added: My son Mehr Ali, don’t worry, Almighty Allah shall bless your beloved mureed Saif Ali with five sons. The four sons would be noble and pious but the fifth son shall be my son, Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) told, and that his name should be Bashir Ahmad, as he is our basharat (pre-information), and that he must be raised in secrecy. While giving this basharat to Shah Sahib in dream, Huzoor Maula Ali (AS), Mola Hasan (AS), Mola Hussain (AS), Huzoor Sultan Bahu (RA) and Huzoor Ghaus-al-Azam were sitting in the spiritual holy Bargah which is called “Deewan-e-Muhammadi (SAWAW)”. At that time when Huzoor Sultan Bahu (RA) came to know about a Wali Allah with high dignity and excellence, he requested Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) to bless him with the responsibility apparent safety and security of this Wali Allah during his childhood to youth period. Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) happily blessed Hazrat Sultan Bahu (RA) with this responsibility. Hazrat Peer Syed Mehr Ali Gillani Chishti Nizami Owaisi (RA) called his beloved disciple Hazrat Saif Ali (RA) and ordered him to leave Golra Shareef and go back to his home. Obeying his Peer-o-Murshad, Hazrat Saif Ali (RA) went back to hom in Kashmir at that time. He was not married, so his parents found a noble and pious match and married their son Hazrat Saif Ali (RA). With the passage of time, Almighty Allah blessed him with son every year, hence four sons in first four years of his marriage. Hazrat Saif Ali (RA) was very much missing his Peer-o-Murshad. So again he left his home and reached Golra Shareef for humble service of his Peer-o-Murshad. After some time, Peer Syed Mehr Ali (RA) one day called his beloved disciple Hazrat Saif Ali (RA) and revealed the secret that he had in his heart and added time is nearing that Allah’s promise to send a Wali Allah of high dignity and excellence. That’s why, this time also, Shah Sahib ordered Hazrat Saif Ali (RA) to again go back to home. The family of Hazrat Saif Ali (RA) left Kashmir and migrated to District Sargodha in the Punjab Province of Pakistan. They got a house in a village near Sargodha and agricultural land for livelihood. At last, time came and Hazrat Peer Shah Bashir Ahmad Al-Owaisi, A-Qadri, Al-Qalandri took birth in complete purity (will be referred to as Sarkar). The whole house brightened with anwaar-o-tajaliyaat. Sarkar was only of three days that Hazrat Peer Syed Moinuddin Chishti known as Khawaja Gareeb Nawaz (RA) of Ajmer Shareef, India spiritually came to see Sarkar and bless him with Faizaan-e-Chishtia. Sarkar was of a month that Hazrat Peer Syed Nizamuddin Awliya known as Mahboob-e-Ellahi (RA) came to see Sarkar and bless him with Faizaan-e-Nizamia. When Sarkar reached the age of five years, every Wali Allah of True Silsila-i-Tariqat came spiritually to take bait from Sarkar and bless him with Faizaan of his silsila. At the end, Huzoor Ghaus-al-Azam (AS) came spiritually and took bait and said, “O my son Bashir Ahmad! Your spiritual baits are complete and now one apparent bait is compulsory for you for which I have spiritually informed Shah Bhalawal Hazrat Syed Ahmad Saeed Hamdani (RA) of Dhandha Shah Bhalawal, a place near Mianwali district in Punjab Province to take your bait. Now Sarkar has attained the age of 12 years and he went to Hazrat Syed Ahmad Saeed Hamdani (RA) with his father Hazrat Saif Ali (RA). Hamdani Sarkar was waiting for this Wali Allah who was coming to him in his childhood for giving bait. At last, Sarkar reached Hamdani Sarkar and gave bait and he blessed Sarkar with all spiritual faizaan that he had with himself. Sarkar got education upto 7th class and Hazrat Sultan Bahu (RA) remained behind him for his safety and security. When Sarkar was in the age of five years, Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) gave His ziarat nine times in one day and blessed him with his Daimi Huzoori. Daimi Huzoori means constant spiritual connection with Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW). Sarkar received all spiritual knowledge directly from Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) and Huzoor Maula Ali-al-Murtaza (AS). At last time remained passing and Sarkar’s heart with completely filled with true love and aqeedat with Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW), Huzoor Maula Ali-al-Murtaza (AS), Huzoor Syeda Fatima-tu-Zahra (SA), Huzoor Syed Imam Hassan-al-Mujtaba (AS), Hazrat Syed Imam Hussain (AS) and subsequent Imams from the geneology of Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW). At last, Silsila-i-Tariqat named Silsila-i-Aalia Owaisia Qadria Qalandria was started on the holy direction of Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW). In the beginning, Sarkar started his Silsila-i-Tariqat in Fort Abbas District situated near Indian Border Line and who came in the holy bargah of Sarkar, he got ziarat of Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW). With his miracles, Sarkar became famous in other surrounding villages and districts and Muslims divided into sectarianism started coming to Sarkar with a couple of questions. Sarkar used to reply all their questions and at the end it was common practice that Sarkar used to bless all visitors in his mehfil with ziarat of Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW). After having ziarat, no one could leave himself without giving bait to Sarkar. The way of ziarat was that Sarkar used to ask all visitors in his mehfil to shut their eyes and sit in muraqba then Sarkar used to throw spiritual attention on their souls to bless with ziarat of Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) in awake condition. Sarkar used to say that Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW) changed the minds of infidels with his miracles, and Sarkar changed the minds of his visitors with ziarat of Huzoor Nabi Kareem (SAWAW). At last time came and Sarkar transferred himself into holy shrine on 30 January, 1998 which is situated at 11 Kms from Arif Wala on the road leading to district Chishtian Shareef, and 1 km before Qabula Shareef. The faizaan of Silsila-i-Aalia Owaisia Qadria Qalandria still continues through elder son of Sarkar Hazrat Peer Munir Ahmad Damate Barkatuhum Aalia and a Khalifa Hazrat Peer Syed Shah Aswaar Hussain Bukhari Qalander Sarkar Damate Barkatuhum Aalia.

 “…There is nothing whatever like unto Him, and He is the One that hears and sees (all things). Qur’an [42:11]
(Arabic transliteration: Laysa Kamithlihi Shayun Wa Huwa As-Sami’ ul-Basir) NOTE:
I found many different versions of the 99 names. The above 99 are on a poster I have. Another list includes Al-Mu’tiy – The Bestower, The Giver and does not have Al-Ahad - The One. Another list did not have Al-Razzaaq -The Sustainer, The Provider but did have Al-Maajid The Noble, The One who is Majid. Allah (subhanahu wa ta`ala)’s names are not limited to 99, which is a common misconception. There are a couple of evidences, one is the du`aa where one calls upon Allah by the names He (subhanahu wa ta`ala) has kept to Himself (obviously not taking these names since Allah has not revealed them to us); another is the fact that in the narrations of the famous ninety nine names hadith that do contain 99 names, the names are not consistent between narrations (for example, imam al-bayhaqi reports two versions of this hadith, with different 99 names in each). It is suggested by one commentator that the names were not explicitly stated by the rasul (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam).

Leaders of Abstainers from holy geneology of Holy Prophet (SAW) also include Hazrat Syed Imam Zain-al Abideen (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Muhammad Baqir (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Jaffer Sadiq (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Moosa Kazim (AS), Hazrat Imam  Syed Ali Raza (AS), Hazrat Imam Muhammad Taqi (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Naqi Ali (AS), Hazrat Imam Syed Hasan Askari (AS) and Hazrat Imam Syed Muhammad Mehdi (AS). Those who keep any kind of hate against these Leaders of Abstainers fail to receive blessings of Almighty Allah in this holy night even if they keep themselves busy in doing Ibadat throughout the night. It must be kept in mind that Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) is most beloved to Almighty Allah and holy personalities, as named above, are beloved to Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam). There is clear saying of Holy Prophet (SAW), “who keep enemity against my Ahle Bait Athaar (AS), are at enemity with me”. Whoever may consider/think whatever he/she wants but truth cannot be denied. Keeping true love with Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) of Holy Prophet (SAW) is an Quranic order. Aulia (Friends of Allah) do keep true love with Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) and doubtlessly receive blessings of Almighty Allah and get excellent ranks from Almighty Allah as well as His nearness. 

To seek forgiveness of Almighty Allah for the sins, committed knowingly or unknowingly, holy night of Laila-tul-Qadar is a great reward from Almighty Allah for Ummah of Holy Prophet (SAW). Ummati is he whom Holy Prophet (SAW) accepts as his ummati himself. No Muslim has the right to be called ummati of the Holy Prophet (SAW) until and unless he abides by the holy sayings of Holy Prophet (SAW) stated in favour of his Ahle Bait Athaar (SAW).  

In this holy night of Laila-tul-Qadar, do Ibadat of whatsoever type but prefer to offer Durood-o-Salaam on Holy Prophet (SAW) and his Ahle Bait Athaar (AS) as much as possible because this is what Almighty Allah and His Angels do.

Who are Awlia Allah? Dignity of Walayat and Wali Allah

The word “Awliya” is plural of word “Wali” which is singular. The word “Wali” has been derived from the word “Walayat” which means recognition of Almighty Allah. Wali means Friend/Helper of Almighty Allah. Every Messenger of Allah from Hazrat Adam (AS) to Hazrat Esa (AS) was Wali Allah because they had the recognition of Almighty Allah. The Last Holy Prophet of Allah, Hazrat Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) is the Chief of all Prophets and Messengers of Allah whom Allah sent from time to time to the earth for the guidance of the mankind.

Almighty Allah held two meetings: First meeting was held in Aalam-e-Arwah in which Souls of the whole mankind including our souls from Hazrat Adam (AS) to the last human who has yet to come in this world were present. In the said meeting, Almighty Allah took promise from all Souls of his being One and Only and Creator of the entire universe. Thereafter, Almighty Allah stated, if any of you ask for world (worldly status), Jannah from me I will give and if any of you ask for Myself (My recognition) I will give too. Then Almighty Allah showed fashionable world, Jannah to all Souls in Aalam-e-Arwah and also Dozakh to create fright of sins in them. After that, Almighty Allah tested all the souls by asking their wishes whether for World, Jannah or Myself. The first majority liked world and made wish for that. Allah ordered His Angels to write the same in their fate. The second majority of souls again made wish for world but together with Jannah adding that they are frightened of Dozakh. The same was written in their fate. The third little majority just stated, “O Allah! Your world is nothing more than a place of sins, we make wish for Jannah”. The same was granted to them. At the end, the remaining souls were in minority to whom Allah addressed directly and asked their wish. They stated humbly and respectfully, “O Allah! We need not your world nor your Jannah and nor are we frightened of your Dozakh, we make wish for Yourself. On the day of resurrection, if You order us to enter Dozakh, we will enter obeying Your order. We need Yourself, Your obedience, Your Love, Your nearness”. Almighty Allah’s anger changed into pleasure and Allah stated, “O My Souls! Although you have not made wish for anything, but you have made wish for everything. You are special to Me. I bless you with My Recognition and power to spread the same to the mankind so as to correct their mistake that they have done in Aalam-e-Arwah. The souls who made wish for Almighty Allah were of Messengers, Prophets and Aulia Allah. Sureh Fateha indicates “People on who Allah bestowed His Glory”. There is also mention in this Surah of those on whom Allah was angry and those who went astray. Recognition of Allah is called Walayat. When first human Hazrat Adam (AS) came on this earth, he gave birth to his children and invited to the Recognition of Allah and Seeraat-e-Mustaqeem. The subsequent, Messengers/Prophets did the same duty. Though every Muslim requests for Seeraat-e-Mustaqeem in the state of prayer which is the path of those on whom Allah bestowed His Glory, but does not try to make sure as to whether he has really found their path or not.

After sending His Last Holy and Beloved Prophet, Hazrat Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) and putting seal on the Prophethood, Almighty Allah ordered His Holy Prophet (SAW) to announce spread of Seeraat-e-Mustaqeem through Walayat. There is holy saying of the Holy Prophet (SAW), “Walayt is the deputation of Nabuwah”. The great Religion Islam was given total perfection by Almighty Allah and the Holy Prophet (SAW) deputed his cousin Hazrat Ali-al Murtaza (AS) as the Commander/Leader  of Mutaqeen and he is the Chief of Aulia Allah being first Wali Allah. There is saying of the Holy Prophet (SAW), “Ali is to me as Haroon is to Mosa but no one will be called Nabi after me”. The Holy Prophet (SAW) granted His Holy Turban of Prophethood to Hazrat Ali (AS), he to his son Hazrat Hasan (AS), he to his brother Hazrat Hussain (AS), he to his son Hazrat Zain-al Abideen (AS) in the field of Karbala, he to his son Hazrat Muhammad Baqar (AS), he to his son Hazrat Jaffer Sadiq (AS), he to his son Hazrat Mosa Kazim (AS), he to his son Hazrat Ali Raza (AS), he to his son Hazrat Muhammad Taqi (AS), he to his son Hazrat Naqi (AS), he is to son Hazrat Hassan Askari (AS) and finally he to his son Hazrat Muhammad Mehdi (AS) to whom Almighty Allah concealed for appearance at specific time. This fact is known by all Muslims of any fiqah that Hazrat Imam Mehdi (AS) will re-appeare.

The second meeting of all those who made wish for Almighty Allah was held at the seventh sky in which Allah took allegiance from those souls who made wish for Almighty Allah and nothing else, in favour of his beloved Holy Prophet Muhammad (Suallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasalam).

The right and power to make Wali Allah are with Hazrat Ali (AS), as per saying of Holy Prophet (SAW). Who establishes true and sound belief in the Oneness of Almighty Allah, all Holy Books (previous and present) and does not doubt, day of recurrection, Allah’s Angels, all past Prophets/Messengers, does ibadat as Holy Prophet (SAW) demonstrated, keeps true love with Holy Prophet (SAW) and His Ahle Bait Athaar (AS), possesses high moral character as Holy Prophet (SAW) demonstrated in his life time, can become Wali Allah by giving Oath of Allegiance on the hand of a Wali Allah. Since new children are taking birth every moment, there is need to help them enter Islam completely, as per Holy Quran, and for this purose, Oath of Allegiance on the hand of a Wali Allah is compulsory, just like Sahaba Kiram (RA) gave Oath of Allegiance on the holy hands of Holy Prophet (SAW). The practice of taking Oath of Allegiance is Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (SAW) which is continued by Aulia Allah so far. After giving Oath of Allegiance by reading Qalma Tayyaba, Almighty Allah forgives all previous sins committed knowingly or unknowingly. It may be mentioned that sins committed directly effect the soul and look like black spots. When the sins are forgiven, Allah’s Nur i.e. Nur-e-Emaan comes as sign of his being a true Muslim. If the disciple of concerned Wali Allah strictly follows his Shaikh (Spiritual Guide) and his teachings, Holy Prophet (SAW) comes in his dream. There is holy saying of Holy Prophet (SAW), “He who saw Myself, saw Almighty Allah”. Now one can think easily who saw Almighty Allah never die but transfer from one place to another. There holy saying of Allah i.e. Hadith-e-Qudsi, “My Aulia do not die but transfer from one place to another”. There are shrines of Aulia Allah in India as well as Pakistan and Muslims visit them for the sake of their worldly and religious betterment and pray to Almighty Allah making Aulia Allah as source (waseela) and they do receive Allah’s blessings. May Almighty Allah help readers of this post understand and act accordingly to find nearness of Almighty Allah. Ameen

The mysteries and spiritual knowledge stated above are the blessings of Almighty Allah and His Holy Prophet (SAW) through the Chief Qalander Sarkar Noor Allah Marqadah.

Any question may be sent to  chiefqalander@gmail.com. Nothing stated above creates the concept of shiaism.

Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam)

He who considers Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) Nur (Light of Allah) is Muslim. The Holy Prophet (SAW) appeared in this world in the state of human because if He would come in the state of Nur (Light of Allah), everyone and everything on the earth could have burnt. Now recall the incident of Hadrat Moses (AS). He preached the then True Islam to his people, who desired to first practically and physically see Allah of Hadrat Moses (AS). Hadrat Moses (AS) on their insistence agreed and asked his people to select senior people for the purpose. As many as 60 senior people were unanimously chosen by people of Israel. The sixty senior people followed Hadrat Moses (AS) to the Toor Mountain. When Light (Nur) of Almighty Allah (SWT) appeared on the mountain before their eyes, they all burnt but Hadrat Moses (AS) kept observing the beauty of the Light of Allah as he possessed spiritual power to tolerate the flash of the Light of Allah. Thereafter, Hadrat Moses (AS) prayed to Allah to give those dead people new life, so that people of Israel somewhat believes. They all were alive and said, “Allah of Moses is True but we are unable to see Him”.

That’s why, Almighty Allah (SAW) sent his beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) in the human alike state for the guidance of the then disbelievers. When someone from the disciples said, “Muhammad (SAW) is Bashar (Human)”, Allah immediately sent Gabriel with the message: O’Prophet, tell them I just look like you as I receive Message from Allah”. Now think for a while, Almighty Allah (SWT) – the Sender of Message is Nur, Gabriel is Nur, Message itself is Nur, then how can it be possible that all this will go to a man made with clay. Not at all.

Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) first of all delivered the message of Allah to his Holy Family, genealogy of which relates to Hadrat Ismail (AS) son of Hadrat Ibraheem (AS) both Prophets of Allah. Only few of the Holy Prophet (SAW)’s Holy Family had had taken departure from the straight path introduced by Hadrat Ibraheem (AS) but rest followed Deen-e-Ibraheemi (AS). Those who raised the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) from the childhood to youth, were Momin and enjoyed excellent fame in the then society. There are authentic sayings of Holy Prophet (SAW) in this context.

ISLAM STRICTLY OPPOSES TERRORISM

Many debates have been held on the subject topic by Muslims and many books have been written. Despite this effort, it is contemplated that Islam is based on terrorism. It creates fundamentalists and so on. By the way, who is not fundamentalist?

The fact that needs to be inculcated in mind is that Islam strictly opposes terrorism or any such activity that is detrimental to the human lives. There is clear saying of Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) that “killer of one humanbeing is the killer of humanity”. Islam is the religion of peace but blacksheeps exist in every religion. They are trying to defame the name and integrity of Islam – The True Straight Path, shown by Almigyty Allah Who is the Creator of each and every living and non-living thing of this universe and the universes that are not seen. Those who claim to be Muslims but are involved in any terrorist activities are defaming the name of Islam. Islam is Guidance – if they had received guidance, they would not have gone astray. Those who are on the Straight Path speak of truth and love first with Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW), His Ahle Bait (AS) and then with all humanity. Those who keep true love and deep feelings of love for the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) do love with one another. Those who are following Satan but disguised as being Muslims, are far away from the Straight Path. They are clearly rejecting Divine Law ordained in Holy Quran and holy sayings of Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Love with Holy Prophet (SAW) brings peace of mind in life and society but so-called Muslims hating Holy Prophet (SAW) are basically not Muslims and are just like jungle animals who eat one another.  Love with Holy Prophet (SAW) purifies human soul but hate deshapes human soul. There is much to be added about this topic but I am closing here. I am sorry in advance if any word of this post hurts the readers but I would say, “Trugh is always bitter” and cannot be avoided but neglected.

Almighty Allah’s Objective to Create the Mankind and Universe

Almighty Allah (SWT) is Nur (Light). When there was nothing at at all, there was Almighty Allah (SWT) with all His capabilities of being Creator, Omnipotent, Beneficent and Merciful and so on. Almighty Allah says in His Holy Saying known as Hadith-e-Qudsi: “I was a Hidden Treasure – I loved Myself to be Recognized – I created Nur-e-Muhammad (SAW). This Hadith-e-Qudsi clearly indicates that creation of the universe is based on objects i.e. Love and Recognition. There is an authentic saying of Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW): “Almighty Allah (SWT) first of all created my Nur and then every thing out of my Nur”. The foundation of Almighty Allah’s very first creation is Love and Recognition. Almighty Allah (SWT) loved Nur-e-Muhammad (SAW) and Nur-e-Muhammad (SAW) recognized Almighty Allah (SWT). Then Almighty Allah created the entire universe solely for the spread of dignity, distinction, glory and highness of His First Creation i.e. Nur-e-Muhammad (SAW). In another Hadith-e-Qudsi, Allah accepts: “LOU LAKA LAMA AZHARTU RABUBIYYAH, If He (Muhammad (SAW) were not, I would not expose Myself.

He who embraces Islam and establishes relation of true love and strict obedience with Holy Prophet (SAW) automatically receives knowledge about the Existence and Oneness of Almighty Allah (SWT). Negative of Love is Hate and that of Knowledge is Ignorance. The difference of opinion about the Oneness and Existence of Almighty Allah (SWT) between mankind is only because of total Ignorance – hence non-Muslim nations on this earth.

The division of Muslims into different sects is also due to the lack of True Knowledge of the Truth and Reality of the objective of Almighty Allah (SWT) to create the entire Universe. That’s why, acquiring knowledge of the truth is conditioned upon the mankind so as to get rid of ignorance.

A Muslim is he who loves the Holy Prophet (SAW) more than his own relatives, strictly obeys orders ordained in the Holy Quran and that given by Holy Prophet (SAW), fully avoids to follow the footsteps of Shaitaan, does good deeds, practices Ibadah as ordered, takes care of human rights of others and fear Almighty Allah (SAW). Only deep love with and strict obedience of Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) can save the mankind from following the footsteps of Shaitaan – otherwise Azazeel himself did much Ibadah but became Shaitaan on rejecting Allah’s order.

The True Islam is only with Aulia Kiraam and none else.

SILSILA-I-AALIA OWAISIA, QADRIA, QALANDRIA (PAKISTAN)

The Silsila-i-Aalia Owaisia, Qadria, Qalandria (Pakistan) was founded by the Chief Qalander – the Most Perfect Wali Allah Hadrat Peer Sufi Mirza Bashir Ahmad Owaisi Qadri Qalandri Sarkar (Noor Allah Marqadah) on very sweet and lovely instructions of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasalam). The Silsila is actively engaged in spreading Deen-e-Haq (True Islam) introduced and promoted by Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) and His Holy Family known as Ahle Bait Athaar (Alaihe Salam). The faizaan of the Silsila is greater than that of any other silsila-i-tariqat.

In His time, Holy Prophet (SAW) directly blessed people with True Islam and after his disappearance from this world, the duty for continuing the promotion of True Islam was assigned to Mola of the Universe Hadrat Ali Al-Murtaza Karam Allah Wajhahul Kareem on the order of Almighty Allah (SWT). The relationship of Mola Ali (AS) with Holy Prophet (SAW) is closer than any other mere disciple of the Holy Prophet (SAW). Mola Ali (AS) was declared to be his brother two times by Holy Prophet (SAW). Mola Ali (AS) is cousin to the Holy Prophet (SAW) and husband of the Holy Daughter of Holy Prophet (SAW) Hadrat Sayyeda Fatima-tu-Zahra (Salam Allah Ho Alaiha).

Mola Ali (AS) delivered true teachings and taught hidden secrets of True Islam to his disciples who better performed the duty of spreading the said teachings amongst their disciplines in the following years, purifying the soul of people and presented them before the Holy Prophet (SAW) in His Noori Mansion through deep meditation.

Likewise, the Chief Qalander Sarkar (Noor Allah Marqadah) performed similar duty of spreading True Islam in his time and presented his disciples in the holy Noori Mansion of the Holy Prophet (SAW) through deep meditation, fulfilling their heart and minds with Light (Noor) of Almighty Allah (SWT).

Although speaking about merely a Kamil (Complete) Wali Allah is difficult for a common Muslim, yet it is far difficult to define and speak about the dignity and highness of the Akmal (Most Perfect) Wali Allah i.e. the Chief Qalander Sarkar (Noor Allah Marqadah). There is no example of the Chief Qalander Sarkar (Noor Allah Marqadah) in this World nor shall any other Wali Allah come as the Chief Qalander till the appearance of Hadrat Imam Mehdi (AS). Here it is only mentioned for those who love and believe that the Chief Qalander Sarkar (Noor Allah Marqadah) is the Most Perfect (Akmal) Wali Allah who lived two lives simultaneously: one evidently and the other spiritually in total meditation and continuously seeing Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallu Alaihe Wa Aalehi Wasallam) in the state of Noor (Light of Allah (SWT) together with the disciples and past Prophets (AS) of the Holy Prophet (SAW).

Division of today’s Muslims into different sects is clear disobedience of Almighty Allah (SWT) according to the Holy Quran and who are following any sect are committing sins taking departure from the Holy Quran which contains order to read it, understand it and act up its teachings revealed by Almighty Allah (SWT). Every single word of Holy Quran came from the Holy Tongue of the Holy Prophet (SAW). The Holy Prophet (SAW) never spoke with his own wish and intention – what spoke was from Almighty Allah as per Holy Quran.

Almighty Allah (SWT) created Mankind and granted it the will which can be used either for Acceptance or Rejection. It is common phenomenon that both acceptance and rejection cannot exist in one heart at a time. Believer is a believer and rejecter is rejecter. He who believes one thing and rejects the other is basically following something totally different from the Divine Law.

Almighty Allah (SWT) does not bring betterment for those who do not try for the same themselves (Holy Quran).  The peace and prosperity of nations are hidden in pure and strict accaptance of Islam and true love with Holy Prophet (SAW) and His Ahle Bait Athaar (AS). He who takes departure from them even if he does more and more ibadat, cannnot get Jannat. Following teachings is Islam and loving Panjtanpaak (AS) is Emaan. Without Emaan is no Islam.
