THE ARY BUSINESS (Part II)

The ARY Group are the same people who run the "QTV" Channel. Fine...

But they are also the same people who run the Pakistani edition of HBO
(promiscuity) , and a few days ago I came across an ad in the channel where it was being announced that the movie "THE DA VINCI CODE" was to be aired.

I will not lie, and admit that I have neither read the book nor watched the movie. But one
thing which I can say for sure after reading several of its reviews is that it is a
blasphemous movie which basically outlines the so-called "fact" that Hazrat Isa bin Maryam (AS) had wed a certain woman by the name of "Mary Magdalene".

I felt very angry and shocked at this and decided to gather some of my friends and hold a protest outside the Lahore Press Club. Unfortunately I couldn't...

Let me remind you again that the ARY Group is owned by Haji Abdur Razzaq Yaqoob, who is also the Head of the World Memon Organization [1]

Their motive states that their foremost objecive is the well-being of the Memons in particular, and the Muslims in general. Talk about discrimination by caste!!

I've heard from my maternal uncle that the Memons are a different community much in distinction like the Agha Khan's Ismailis. Wallahu A'alam!

But one thing is for sure... these people are doing a business out of QTV. I am a Muslim (Sunni > Hanafi) and I must say that indeed reciting appraisals of our beloved Prophet (SAW) is a good act and is undoubtedly respectable, just like Hassaan bin Thabit (RA) used to do. But some like Farhan Qadri and other people don't have the appropriate vocal training required for proper recitation. They just come and "scream" (Ma'z-Allah). Not that I am throwing aside his passion, plz don't take me wrong. I am just trying to raise some serious awareness here. I've heard from many sources that Jinab Owais Qadri sahib does not come to attend and recite at Naat functions unless he is offered the right amount of money (something like Rs. 100,000!)

So is this the purpose of praising the one to be praised (SAW)? Plz think it over.

And then, instead of you doing your own personal Istikhara, QTV makes it "easier" for you by calling a landline no. charged at Rs.14+tax and then getting some "aamil" to solve your problems via his jinns. Ya-Allah what is happening!

Did Prophet Samuel (Shimweel), the first person to do Istikhara, use jinns to get a message? NO!!

Please don't take me wrong for the following comments. I know that all of you are those who have, Alhamdulillah, good knowledge of Islam and are conservative Muslims, like every Muslim (male and female) is supposed to be.

The thing is, it is clearly mentioned in several Ahadi'th that a woman is not only supposed to show her face to a non-mehram, but she should not also see a non-mehram's face either. Then why are most of the women with stuffed make-up and glamorous clothes coming on QTV and talking about the Sunnah? Are they following the Sunnah of the Ummul-Momineen?

It is stated in the Sahih Hadi'th that Asma bint-e-Abu Bakar (RA) once came in the presence of the Prophet (SAW). She was wearing light and transparent clothes at the time. The Prophet (SAW) immediately turned his face to the other side and stated that nothing should be seen of a mature and young woman except these two things, and he pointed towards his hand and face mubarak, indicating that only the feet and hands of a woman are allowed to be uncovered.

Plus, the ARY Group (those who run QTV) also run The Musik, a 24-hr Pakistani music channel which also features shows where the inter-mingling of sexes is promoted in various "normal" forms such as game-shows, etc. Then there is ARY's Fashion TV, the first total Pakistani offshoot of the Parisian channel which is probably most responsible nowdays for the promotion of, as they say in Urdu, "kanjarkhana and fahaashi" (explicitness). Half-naked women walking on ramps, all Pakistani! Wow! Is this why the forefathers of us Pakistanis lost so many of their lives and had to shed blood for? I don't think so. If this was our goal, why did we separate ourselves from India in the first place? Plz think about it!

Many people say I have a personal grudge against the ARY Group. Allah Knows Best that no such thing exists. I will Insha'Allah express my views on other deviating channels too, if Allah wills. Thank you for your time in reading my opinion. I hope to receive your opinions on this matter eagerly. Thank You.

NEWLY DISCOVERED MIRACLES (Allahu Akbar!)

THE NUMBER "19":

Many genius Muslims have passed by who practically tried to fully delve deep into the Qur'anic message, or rather a serious question, in which Allah (SWT) says:

"DO THEY NOT PONDER OVER THE QUR'AN?" [Al-Mu'minoon : V. 68]

To be quite brief, we Muslims have staunch faith that The Qur'an is The Miracle of Miracles. Not only does it contain psychological, geographical, oceanological, embryological, psychiatrical, medical, logical, chemical miracles, to top it all off, this magnificent Final Revelation of The Almighty also contains Mathematical (Lexical) miracles! How, you may ask?

Let's see..

Masters of Qur'anic wisdom such as Mr. Harun Yahya and the founder and crew of The Qur'anic Research Group have unlocked some wonderful mysteries into the insight of The Qur'an's mathematical miracles and astonishing wonder, revealed upon an unlettered prophet (SAW) 1400 years ago in the middle of nowhere!

Like The Bible, The Qur'an has a specific set of numerical values assigned to every individual letter of the Arabic alphabet. For example, ALIF is "1", BAA is "2", FAA is "80", RAA is "200" and so on. For a detailed numerological list of assigned values, please click here: www.quranmiracles.com/19/19read.asp?id=1

Islam is the most strongest abrogater of monotheism, strict monotheism to be precise. No trinity, no son, nothing. Allah is free from such blasphemies and interpolated attachments. Neither Jesus nor Uzair (Ezra) are the "sons of God". God is One, or Alone, to be precise.

The numerical equivalent of the Arabic word "wahid" meaning "one" is: WAA (6) + ALIF (1) + HAA (8) + DAA (4) = 19

Please bear this distinct number in mind. It will be used for reference purposes later, Insha'Allah.
Anyhow, it seems to be nothing but logical that behind every thing created is a Creator. Fair enough? Take the example of some items you have bought at a local shopping store. They all have bar-codes pasted on them for direct price-verification at the counter via the information contained in those distinct and unique set of thick/thin black lines.
In the same way, Allah leaves his "bar-codes" or signs (aayaat) in his creations so that the people who want to find their Creator find him and then bow down before Him in humbleness and submission. The number "19" is a similar bar-code. There are other numbers which are also used as "stamps" for proclamations and creations, they will be discussed later, Insha'Allah.

THE IMPORTANCE OF "19":

Following are the translation of some relevant verses from The Qur'an, which amazingly give us the precise reason for the number "19" being so important:

THEN SAID HE (The Unbeliever): "THIS IS NOTHING BUT MAGIC, DERIVED FROM OF OLD;
THIS IS NOTHING BUT THE WORD OF A MORTAL!"
SOON I (Allah) WILL CAST HIM INTO HELL-FIRE!
AND WHAT WILL EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT HELL-FIRE IS?
NEITHER DOES IT PERMIT TO ENDURE, AND NEITHER DOES IT LEAVE ALONE!
DARKENING AND CHANGING THE COLOR OF MAN!
OVER IT ARE NINETEEN (19)
AND WE HAVE SET NONE BUT ANGELS AS GUARDIANS OF THE FIRE; AND WE HAVE FIXED THEIR NUMBER ONLY AS A TRIAL FOR UNBELIEVERS - IN ORDER THAT THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK (Jews & Christians) MAY ARRIVE AT CERTAINTY, AND THE BELIEVERS MAY INCREASE IN FAITH - AND THAT NO DOUBTS MAY BE LEFT FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE BOOK AND THE BELIEVERS (Muslims), AND THAT THOSE IN WHOSE HEARTS IS A DISEASE AND THE UNBELIEVERS MAY SAY, "WHAT SYMBOL DOES ALLAH INTEND BY THIS?" THUS DOES ALLAH LEAVE TO STRAY WHOM HE PLEASES, AND GUIDE WHOM HE PLEASES: AND NONE CAN KNOW THE FORCES OF YOUR LORD, EXCEPT HIM, AND THIS IS NO OTHER THAN A WARNING TO MANKIND. [Al-Muddathir : V. 24-31]

To summarize the above verses, the unbeliever in a state of sheer infidelity mocks at the notion of "19" i.e. monotheism, alleging that it is a form of magic, or in modern terms, some kind of esoteric freemasonry. But Allah says that He will throw such a denier in the Sarqa (Hellfire), wherein due to the intense heat, man's color will blacken, roast, he will burn up, he will be given new flesh again, and the process keeps repeating itself. The statement neither does it leave alone refers to the re-giving of new flesh for repeat of punishment. Over it are nineteen is one of the most amazing statements I have come across so far. From the next verse we come to know that there will be 19 angels on top of the Hellfire. This is a sign of Truth, especially for the People of the Book (Jews & Christians) and furthermore, a sign for the existing believers who are low in faith, there faith will thereforth increase till the level of staunchness. As we read on, we come to know that the unbeliever will question as to what Allah implies by the specific quantity of angels. At the end, we realise that "19" i.e. monotheism and Oneness of Allah is a warning to all of mankind.

SOME NEWLY DISCOVERED MIRACLES:
It was an average day, that I started getting bored of my preparatory studies for my Class XII Engineering finals. The same old syllabus, monotony at its finest, too damning, if you may. I decided to pick up my calculator, the numerical values were on my mind, I started experimenting with different Qur'anic verses, words and occurrences. And then I discovered (not made) these miracles. I thank Allah Almighty for blessing me with this honour. I in no way intend to boast of my findings. Feel free to share them. Allahu Akbar!!

1. YAJOOJ-MAJOOJ
Yajooj-Majooj are not huge-eared big-toothed monsters. Rather, it refers to two twin tribes (savage) who are humans like us, but extremely violent, dis-civilized and ferocious. They are from the offspring of Yafith, son of Prophet Nuh (AS).

The only information from The Qur'an that we get of these two tribes, is that their ferocious characteristics have been explained by the inhabitants of a particular tribe, upon whom King Dhul-Qarnayn (the Two-Horned one) stumbled upon. He had ordered the people to help him build a wall (barrier) between them and Yajooj-Majooj so that they might not harm them anymore. [1]

These two-tribes are an important end-of-time sign/happening. Very important, to be precise, as their destruction will be one of the reasons for Prophet Isa's second coming to this world, before the killing of Dajjal. It is believed by genetic-specialists that the offspring of Yafith bin Nuh are believed to be all or atleast a portion of those people who are naturally red-haired. Probably, the reference is towards the Nordics, Scots, Irish peoples who are mostly from the lineages of famous Vikings (a savage and barbarious nation).

Anyways,
YAJOOJ = YA (10) + ALIF (1) + JA (3) + WA (6) + JA (3) = 23
MAJOOJ = MA (40) + ALIF (1) + JA (3) + WA (6) + JA (3) = 53

To be noted that Yajooj-Majooj are always mentioned together, whether in The Qur'an, Hadi'th or in stories reported by famous historians. Hence, it is suitable to add both their respective values.

23 + 53 = 76

And 76 is a multiple of 19 => (19x4)! Allahu Akbar!
Allah has left His monotheistic imprint, thus verifying the authenticity of their emergence.

2. THE DAJJAL
The Dajjal refers to the Christian Antichrist who is the most important end-of-time figure. The word literally means "The Deceiver", one who will claim false divinity. To be remembered that we are advised by the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) to memorise the first ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf to protect ourselves from The Dajjal's fitnas (afflictions). Our Prophet (SAW) further advised us that The Dajjal would be one eyed, whereas our Lord (Allah) is not one-eyed, thus explaining the falsehood of the Messiah Dajjal. [2]

DAJJAL = DA (4) + JA (3) + ALIF (1) + LA (30) = 38

And 38 is a multiple of 19 => (19x2)! Allahu Akbar!
Allah has left His monotheistic imprint, thus verifying the authenticity of his emergence.

3. AL-RAHMAAN
The word is the first of the beautiful names of Allah. It literally means "The Compassionate". The Qur'an itself testifies to this being Allah's favourite names as there is a special surah (chapter) entitled with its name called "Surah Al-Rahmaan", whose very first verse only mentions this name. Hence:

AL-RAHMAAN = ALIF (1) + LA (30) + RA (200) + HA (8) + MA (40) + ALIF (1) + NA (50) = 330

Though 330 is not a multiple of 19, it is directly a multiple of Allah (66) => (66x5)! Allahu Akbar!
Allah has left His own name, thus verifying the magnificence of this beautiful attribute.

4. MOMINEEN
This Arabic word literally means "those of faith", or rather, conviction. To be kept in mind that the the stage of momin (singular) is above the rank of a muslim, as a momin not only surrenders his will to Allah but also has strong personal conviction and testifies to the Truth with his heart also.

MOMINEEN = MA (40) + WA (6) + MA (40) + NA (50) + YA (10) + NA (50) = 192

Now, the numerical equivalent of Islam is 132. And that of deen is 64. Momineen are those who not only consider Islam itself as a religion, but also foremostly as a deen (way of life).

Hence: ISLAM (132) + DEEN (64) = 192 (MOMINEEN)!

Allahu Akbar!

5. AL-KHIDR
There are many narrations on Al-Khidr. As a final deductive result, some believe him to have passed away, like Ibn Taymiyyah. Others still believe he is alive, as he reported to have drunk the "Aab-e-Hayat" i.e. 'Water of Life', as reported by Hafiz Ibn Katheer in his recordings. [3] And Allah Knows Best.

The only mention of Al-Khidr in The Qur'an is in Surah Al-Kahf, where we are told that Prophet Musa (AS) went with him on a journey, but failed to keep by his promise of remaining calm and patient. [4]

After reading the relevant verses of Al-Khidr and Musa (AS) in The Qur'an, we also realise that he was a man gifted with wisdom and guidance by Allah.

AL-KHIDR = ALIF (1) + LA (30) + KHA (600) + DWA (800) + RA (200) = 1631

Now, 1631 is also equal to the numerical value of the verse "FABI AAYI AALA-EE RABBIKUMA TUKADHIBAAN" i.e.

"Then which of the favours of your Lord will you deny?" Allahu Akbar. This means that we learn that Allah can bestow His special favours, including guidance and wisdom, upon some of His Servants whenever He pleases. Allahu Akbar. And so, indeed, which of the favours of Allah can we deny? Think about it...

6. SIRAATIM-MUSTAQEEM
The word literally means "The Straight Path" or "The Correct Path".

SAWD (90) + RA (200) + ALIF (1) + TAW (9) + MA (40) + SA (60) + TA (400) + QAF (100) + YA (10) + MA (40) = 950

And 950 is a multiple of 19 => (19x50)! Allahu Akbar!
Allah has left His monotheistic imprint in the mention of the Straight Path!

7. HUSSAYN (R.A.)
He was the grandson of the Prophet (SAW), the second son in line of the offsprings of Hazrat Ali ibn Abi Talib. Hazrat Hussayn was also a member of the Ahlul-Bayt i.e. Household of the Prophet (SAW).
We all know how he had sacrificed his life, and those of his family and relatives, for the protection of Islam from the innovator Yazeed, the cursed.

HUSSAYN = HA (8) + SA (60) + YA (10) + NA (50) = 128

Now, 128 is a multiple of Deen (64) => (64x2)! Allahu Akbar!
The deen of Islam remembers the sacrifice of Hazrat Hussayn, and the contribution of his family.

8. KHAIRUKUM-MAN TA-ALLAMAL-QUR'AANA WA ALLAMAH
The above is a complete saying of the Prophet (SAW) which means "The best of you are those who learn The Qur'an and who teach it (to others)". The Hadi'th was reported on the authority of Hazrat Uthman ibn Affan, the third Rightly-Guided Caliph and is mentioned in Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal's Musnad.

Now, the numerical equivalent of the above saying equals 2033. And it is a multiple of 19 => (19x107)! Allahu Akbar!
Allah Has left His monotheistic imprint in this saying of the Prophet (SAW), thus signifying the immense importance of acquiring Qur'anic wisdom!

9. INNASH-SHIRKA LA-ZULMUN 'AZEEM
"UNDOUBTEDLY, SHIRK (ASSOCIATING PARTNERS WITH ALLAH) IS A GRIEVOUS CRIME"
The numerical equivalent of the above Qur'anic verse is 2622, which is a multiple of 19 => (19x138)! Allahu Akbar!
Allah Almighty testifies to the seriousness of this blasphemy!

10. AAYAAT
The word means "signs", or rather, "verses", to be more relevant. The Qur'an is based upon a total of 6666 verses*, which is a direct multiple of Allah (66) => (66x101)! Allahu Akbar!

11. LATARKABUNNA TAWBAQAN 'AN-TAWBAQ
It is verse 19 of Surah Al-Inshiqaaq, meaning "YOU WILL INDEED TRAVEL FROM STAGE-TO-STAGE"

Verse 18 prior to this verse mentions an oath of Allah, where Allah swears by the Moon (wal qamari idhat-tasaq).
Miracle analysts believe verse 19, in context of its previous verse, to foretell, or rather, announce the journey of man to the Moon.

The numerical value of the above verse equals 1045, which is a multiple of 19 => (19x55)! Allahu Akbar!

12. PAKISTAN
Yes, probably one of my favourite discoveries. Since the letter Pa does not exist in Arabic, it is unsuitable to calculate the total of "Bakistan". Hence, we denote/represent Pakistan by it's sq. area i.e. 796,096 sq. kms. It is a multiple of Deen (64) => (64x12439)! Allahu Akbar!

Allah has left the imprint of His Deen (system of life), reminding us that Pakistan was indeed created for the purpose of establishing Deen, as we Muslims claimed before partition and for which our forefathers sacrificed so many of their lives, in the form of Khilafah. Allahu Akbar. Imagine the secularist theories!

13. HIJAAZ
It is the name of the province wherein are situated both the holy sacred cities of Makkah and Madina.

HIJAAZ = HA (8) + JA (3) + ALIF (1) + ZA (7) = 19!!
Allahu Akbar!!

14. LETTERS IN THE QUR'AN
There are a total of 323,760 letters* used in The Qur'an. Now, this quantity is also a multiple of 19 => (19x17,040)! Allahu Akbar!!
_____________________________________________________________________________________

At the end, I would again like to thank Allah for giving me this honor and hope that you don't take this as a joke, rather as a sound warning.

Lastly, lastly, I would be most thankful if anyone could point out mistakes in any of the discoveries. I shall be most relieved, as I had to constantly check and go through all the discoveries carefully before poblication. Alhamdulillahi Rabbil-'Aalameen. Allahu Akbar!!

REFUTATION TO MIRZA'S CLAIMS

In the late 19th century, another dajjal rose, this time in the Indian Subcontinent. His name was Mirza Ghulam Ahmed Qadiani. He is the founder of one of the most bizarre and clearly false groups known as the "Ahmadiyya Jamaat". In my personal view, to call the group "Ahmadis" is infact to indirectly blaspheme the second name of our Prophet (SAW). God Forbid!!

Hence, the term most suitable for these deviated people is "Qadiani" or "Mirzayee". Mirza Ghulam claimed that he was the promised manifestation of both the Promised Messiah (Jesus Christ) and Imam Mahdi, obviously both being different personalities, and both being prophesized wholly differently in the Hadi'th works with respect to their area of emergence, characteristics, features, etc.
I would like to throw light on some of Mirza's claims and then will Insha'Allah prove from both The Qur'an and The Hadi'th that his claims are false and are nothing but claims "proved" by distorting the verses of The Qur'an.

Following are the respectively numbered claims by Mirza Ghulam from his book "Tazkiratush-Shahadatain, pgs. 38,39:
1) In a way, my name (Ahmad) has been mentioned
2) The name of my village "Kadaa" has been mentioned in the traditions
3) The traditions prove that The Messiah will be born in the 13th century
4) The Sahih Bukhari mentions my physical features
5) Visions and dreams of thousands of virtuous people testifying to my aunthenticity
6) My affairs being visited by divine succour
7) The bai'yat (pledge) by about two hundred and thousand people at my hands
8) The crumbling of Christianity as a religion
9) The current polytheism, alcoholism, dishonesty and falsehood which have run rampant on a global scale
10) The failure of all to compete with me in miraculously competitive writing
11) In showing heavenly signs and fulfilment of hundreds of thousands of divine prophecies
____________________________________________________________________________________________
THE REFUTATION:
Answers to respective questions have been stated herein, by the Grace of Allah.

1) The verse to which Mirza Ghulam is referring to is Verse 6 of Surah As-Saff (The Ranks), which states that: "And remember, Jesus, the Son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah (sent to you), confirming the Law (which came) before me, and giving Glad Tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad" But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said "This is evident sorcery!"
Mirza's name was not "Ahmad", but was "Ghulam Ahmad". "Ahmad" means "one who praises" and "Ghulam Ahmad" means "the Servant of the One who Praises" i.e. the 'Servant of Prophet Muhammad (SAW)'. There is a whole lot of visible difference between the two words. Hence, Mirza's attempt to purposefully familiarise his name with Jesus' prophecy of the real Ahmad, our Beloved Prophet (SAW), is sheer error and an act of blasphemy against The Qur'an. The context of the above mentioned verse is that while the Jews were mocking at Jesus Christ (pbuh), he left them with a sign of the Messenger. He was referring to the coming of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), which is in accordance with the Biblical Prophecy, in the words of Jesus himself::

"Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you". [Holy Bible, John 16:7]

Please bear in mind that the Arabic word for Comforter is "Mustafa", which was not in any of Mirza's names, rather it was one of the beautiful names oof our Beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Both these Qur'anic and Biblical verses clearly authenticate the Prophethood of Muhammad (SAW), not a Subcontinental Ismaili like Mirza Ghulam.

2) "Kadaa" was not the name of Mirza's village. It was "Qadian". Nevertheless, he claims that the name has been mentioned in the traditions. What traditions? Are we referring to tales of hearsay and error? Or rather, tales of interpolated prophecies? I leave it up to you to decide. Mirza sahib does not even provide the references to any of his claims, let alone this stupid and timid claim.

3) I have, Alhamdulillah, read various Hadi'th. Yes, the Hadi'th do mention the coming of the Messiah, but that Messiah is Jesus Christ! But we also know that Dajjal has also been labeled as "Al-Maseeh Ad-Dajjal" by our Prophet (SAW). Hence, we come to know that the only two Messiahs mentioned in The Hadi'th are Jesus Christ and The Dajjal. If we are to suppose that Mirza was the manifestation of Jesus, then there are already clear proof in the Sahih Hadi'th that Jesus (pbuh) was a man of lank and beautiful hair and with a reddish complexion (indicating his beautiful whiteness). The Hadi'th is:

Sahih Bukhari, Vol. IV, Book 55, No. 607:
Narrated by: Abu Huraira
Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, "On the night of my Ascension to Heaven, I saw (the prophet) Moses who was a thin person with lank hair, looking like one of the men of the tribe of Shanua; and I saw Jesus who was of average height with red face as if he had just come out of a bathroom. And I resemble prophet Abraham more than any of his offspring does. Then I was given two cups, one containing milk and the other wine. Gabriel said, 'Drink whichever you like.' I took the milk and drank it. Gabriel said, 'You have accepted what is natural, (True Religion i.e. Islam) and if you had taken the wine, your followers would have gone astray.' "
Sahih Bukhari, Vol. IV, Book 55, No. 608

Narrated by: Ibn 'Abbas
The Prophet (SAW)said, "One should not say that I am better than Jonah (i.e. Yunus) bin Matta." So, he mentioned his father Matta. The Prophet mentioned the night of his Ascension and said, "The prophet Moses was brown, a tall person as if from the people of the tribe of Shanu'a. Jesus was a curly-haired man of moderate height." He also mentioned Malik, the gate-keeper of the (Hell) Fire, and Ad-Dajjal.
Now, was Mirza a man with a red face i.e. a white male? No. He was, as can be seen in the pictures, a black-colored male. Secondly, he always wore an imama (turban) on his head, probably to hide his hair which were not curly like those of Jesus! Allah Knows Best.

And then there's the other perspective of him being The Dajjal. Which he was not. He was an ordinary dajjal but not THE Dajjal. I don't need to lie. Dajjals will appear but THE Dajjal has yet to come.

4) Mirza claimed that he was both The Messiah and Imam Mahdi. Now which physical features is he referring to specifically in Sahih Bukhari? Those of Jesus or Mahdi? Obviously to those of Jesus, as there is no mention of Imam Mahdi in Sahih Bukhari.

JESUS:
> Skin color inclined between reddish and white complexions, medium height and lank hair [Vol. IV, Book 54, Beginning of Creation, Hadi'th No. 462]
> Curly haired [Vol. IV, Book 55, Book of Prophets, Hadi'th No. 608]
Clearly, as can be seen from Mirza's image, he did not match any of the physical features of Jesus Christ (pbuh).

5) Does Mirza sahib think that such a claim is believable? How did he know that all the people were virtuous? Though some may be virtuous from the outside, it's the inside that counts. And only Allah Has Knowledge of a person's true characteristics. So, was Mirza's claim viable? I don't think so. Furthermore, in the Hadi'th we are told that a good dream is always from Allah and a bad one always from Satan [Vol IX, Book 87, Book on Interpretation of Dreams, Hadi'th No. 113]. Then most probably, Satan was continually showing Mirza sahib in people's dreams!

6) This is a very absurd claim. We come to know from Mirza's own writings that he suffered from severe and dreadul illnesses. Were they also part of a Divine Succour?

"Most of you people have observed me in this condition [Translator (Bashir Ahmed): i.e. the weakness of Mirza’s brain], and then, I have this (excessive) urinary illness for a very long time; as if the two Yellow Sheets have been draped around me - one at the upper part of my body and the other one at the lower part of the body. I get very little time while in a state of cleanliness due to these illnesses." [Malfoozat 3/68-69]

7) Now here, Mirza is referring to the prophecy of Imam Mahdi, of which we are told that though he will not want to be pledged allegiance to, yet people will swear their allegiance to him between the Hajr-e-Aswad and Maqaam-e-Ibrahim, not in the city of Qadian in Pakistan. Sheesh!

Ibn Majah:

Narrated by Abu Huraira from Abu Qatada:

The Prophet (SAW) said: "People will be given allegiance (Beyat) to person (i.e Mahdi) between the Ruken (Hajr-e-Aswad) and Maqaam (Maqaam-e-Ibrahim) and no one else but the same people who are related to that place (citizens of Makkah) will destroy the respect of Kabah(as they will attack Mahdi in Kabah where fighting is forbidden) and when they will declare it Halal then do not ask about the killing of the ARABS(there will be a mass killing of arabs).Then Ethopians(Africans) will come and they will desolate it in such a way that it would never be a habitat and these will be the people who will take out its treasure".

How is this location in accordance with that of Mirza's city of Qadian?

8) Unfortunately, Christianity is still the pre-dominant religion in the world today. Insha'Allah, the time is not far when Islam will supercede it. How the heck was Mirza responsible for crumbling Christianity when even after more than 100 years of his death, it is still dominant? Atleast he could have dominated Islam by Allah's help during his lifetime, like the real Imam Mahdi will do, Insha'Allah. Hence, we also come to know that Allah's Help was nowhere with Mirza.

9) Polytheism has existed from the times of Noah's descendants onwards. Idol-worshipping was common during the days of Noah's prophethood and also during Ibrahim's days and also before and for a time during the prophethood of Muhammad (SAW). Alcoholism was common in the days of Jesus (pbuh), where it is mentioned in the Bible:

Give strong drink (hard liquor) to him who is perishing (one who is dying). And wine to those who are bitter of heart. Let him drink and forget his poverty. And remember his misery no more. [Holy Bible, Proverbs 31:6-7]

Dishonesty was always there. It is in the nature of man to be dishonest whenever he feels it is necessary, though it is a very wrong act. And falsehood... well, let's take the example of Iblis himself. He is still on falsehood from ever since he disobeyed Allah by not prostrating himself before Adam!

10) Competitive writing?? Let's all laugh for a moment. In each of his claims, Mirza Ghulam has not provided any respective citation from either a Qur'anic verse or a narration from the Hadi'th. No direct and clear reference to any written and pre-recorded proof has been made. Secondly, to boast about his writings is not the quality of an "Imam" or "Messiah". Surely, Imam Mahdi and Jesus Christ are not men of dignity and pride. Rather, they are the pious and saintly people of Allah. They bow their heads down before Allah, not like Mirza Ghulam.

11) What heavenly signs did Mirza show? Even if we are to believe, let's suppose, that a lunar and solar eclipse did take place incidentally in the same month of Ramadan, that means that Mirza had just seized such a coincidental opportunity to initiate his claims. Because from the Hadi'th, we come to know furthermore that after such a celestial sign, not only will Imam Mahdi appear but also that THE Dajjal will rise from a place between Iraq and Syria, let's not go into further details. The divine prophecies, by the way, don't number in the hundreds, let alone in the thousands.

Mirza Ghulam was an Ismaili Shi'a before he started making his claims. Therefore, this much is sufficient for his already heretical beliefs. In his works, Mirza Ghulam states, in a letter to the then Queen of England, that Jihad (struggling) is not compulsory upon Muslims. How deviant!! I think this is enough to know that Mirza was trying to please the Colonial forces at the time so that he could be funded and honored for his blasphemies and distortions of The Qur'an and Hadi'th.

Lastly, I would like to state that, as everyone knows, Mirza suffered the fate which he deserved, and which Allah places upon such a dastardly being. He was literally found head-first in his flush, filled with "dirt".

A famous couplet comes to mind:

TRANSLITERATION (URDU): MIRZA GAR HOTA KHUDA KA NABI, NA TATTI MAIN GIR KAY MARTA KABHI
TRANSLATION (ENGLISH): MIRZA WOULD NEVER HAVE DIED IN SHIT, IF EVER HE WAS GOD'S MESSENGER.

"They are as (worthless as hollow) pieces of timber propped up, (unable to stand on their own). They think that every cry is against them. They are the enemies; so beware of them. The curse of Allah be on them! How are they deluded (away from the Truth)!" [AL-MUNAFIQOON, VERSE 4]

DR. ISRAR AHMED

Though the Muslim Ummah as a whole gets strayed every now and then from the true path, Allah (SWT) oft sends blessings and guides for humanity in the form of individuals, be they pious saints or religious scholars.

Dr. Israr Ahmad is one such individual. An encyclopedia of knowledge, to be precise. His speeches and talks are probably most effective because he is an educated scholar (medical doctorate) and also has constant interaction with the masses, especially the youth through his Sam'o Basar (Audio/Video) Department at the Tanzeem-e-Islami, which uploads each of his Friday sermons.

This is quite surprising, considering the fact that most people consider him to be like the rest of the cocooned-up scholars whose teachings are mostly limited within the frameworks of their mosques. As Dr. Israr puts it: "Many religious scholars are "dams" of knowledge... in the sense that they posess tons of valuable knowledge, but all of that is useless unless the "water" or knowledge is allowed to pass through the barriers so that it can fertilise the "soil" or the masses"

Dr. Israr Ahmad started his da'wah career from his late teenage years i.e. when he was about 19 or 20 years old. He was a prominent member and later Head of the Islami Jamiat-e-Talaba of the Jamaat-e-Islami. Also being an aide of Maulana Maududi himself, Dr. Israr learned a lot from his tafseer, alogn with those of Allama Shabbir Ahmad Usmani and others. But he left the Jamaat in 1957 because he sensed early on that the Jamaat had deviated from its aims and objectives. During pre-partition, there was loud-talk of establishing an Islamic Government. Sadly, the Jamaat decided to enter national electoral politics soon after partition, which was a big mistake, as it later proved to be the main cause for the Jamaat's downfall and the abuse target of people.

Dr. Israr admits that his Tanzeem is also political, but not with respect to electoral politics. It is political with respect to teaching, upbringing and leading the masses by the Help of Allah (SWT), that also not by electing people but rather by nurturing the masses with the teachings of pure social Islam as a Just World Order. Not the conspiratorial New World Order, the system of Dajjal that is getting ever more popular these days around the world.

The Tanzeem-e-Islami is a unique organisation in the sense that it solely is struggling and striving for the establishment of the true Islamic system of life, Khilafah or Caliphate. That too, not by guns and swords or suicide bombings, as some rumour-mongers allege, but briefly by the following methods:

> TEACHING THE ARABIC LANGUAGE & THE QUR'AN
> TEACHING THE HADI'TH
> TEACHING HOW TO LIVE ONE'S LIFE PRACTICALLY ACCORDING TO THE SHARIAH
> CONSTANT REFRESHMENT OF EDUCATION

The revolution in Iran was not carried out by armed combat. People were taught about the importance of Islam as a system and hence were also ordered to stand ground silently even if killed. It was a very bloody move, many Iranians peacefully gave up their lives to the Shah's regime. It was then that the Shah realised that there was no stopping the people... they had been indoctrinated with meaningful literature and powerful writings... just like Karl Marx's writings led people to put up Communism in the former USSR.

Dr. Israr verily states that Islam is not merely a religion, as the word itself is a very limited term referring just to some forms of worship, social customs and a specific dogma. And surprisingly, the Arabic word for religion is madhab. Which is used nowhere for Islam in The Qur'an or Hadi'th literature! Amazing! Then what word is used for Islam? That word is deen, which basically means a way of life, a system of life.

Allah is the Owner of the Day of Judgment (maaliki yaumid-deen, Al-Fatiha, V3). The word deen is used for judgment. A judgment is definitely made in the conformity of a particular judicial system. Similarly: It is He Who Has sent His Messenger (Muhammad SAW) with Guidance (Qur'an) and the True System of Life (Islam) [Al-Fath : 28]. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) not only left us The Qur'an but also with the True System of Life i.e. the Islamic politico-socio-economic system.

Deen, when pressurized from all sides and rounded to the corner, becomes a religion. Before independence, the Sub-Continental populace was on British Deen i.e. the system of the British Imperialist Forces. Hence, we should be following the Deen of Allah, or the Deen Al-Haq (the True Way of Life).

I advise all of you to watch Dr. Israr's programs on Peace TV. The schedule is:

"RAH-E-HIDAYAT" (Path to Guidance): Mon-Sat @ 4 p.m., repeats on 10 p.m.
"RAB KA NIZAAM" (The Lord's System): Every Sunday (timing changes)
