BISMILLAH AR-RAHMAN NIR-RAHIM
As-Salamu Alaikum,
Brothers and Sisters in Islam, In the midst of all the tragedies that have befallen the Muslim Ummah, let us remember the Hadith which narrates that the Jews would separate into 71 sects, and only one would be correct; and that the Christians would separate into 72 sects, and only one would be correct; and finally that the Muslim Ummah Would separate into73 sects and only one would be correct. When asked by his companions what group is that, the Blessed Prophet Muhammad (Salla lahu alaihi wa-salam)said: "The ones who follow the Quran and my Sunnah". (Ahl Sunnah wal Jamaat)
We begin every prayer with "Auzu billahi minesh-shaitan nirrajim." (Allah, protect us from the accursed Devil.)
Our Universe was Created in Time and Space by the Blessed Creator, who is everlasting, without beginning or end. The Creator need only say: "Kun Fya Kun" (Be and it Is). There is no imperfection in the Creators' Being. The imperfections in this world stem from mankind’s deviation from the straight path, to which end "He" appointed from generation to generation a Prophet to call the people back to the straight path.
All the Prophets from the time of Adam (peace be upon him) to the final Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) have had to face the arch enemy (Shaitan) of "The Way of Peace"(Islam). In as much as all the Prophets (peace be upon them all) surrendered themselves to the Will of Allah, they were all Muslim (by definition of the word).
I have given this basic ground work for the advantage of the non-Muslim who may read this message. Allahu ta'ala is the Creator of the Sciences of Material and Spiritual Realities. Unfortunately, for many non-Muslims there exists a deficiency in understanding the unseen forces that co-exist with us, on the physical and the spiritual planes (ie. The Angels and the Jinn). The Temporal Powers are quick to accuse Islam of being devoid of science, when in fact, the Quran is replete with scientific knowledge which is still being discovered by scientists in our modern age. (ie.Quasars and Black Holes and any other dynamic that is a means to support the seen and unseen worlds of the Universe).
Why do we Muslims consider the Quran Holy Word of God? For the lack of better words, Allahu ta’ala placed the complete Quran in a dimensional safety deposit box. It exists, a sublime poem for all time, for all humanity. Allahu ta’ala , placed the entirety of this work into the heart of the Blessed Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), via the Archangel Gabriel, who delivered the Ayats (verses) over a period of twenty-three years.
Quran tells us there is no compulsion is accepting "His" Din (religion, way of life) He alone is the maker of a Muslim Heart. We do not know when Allahu ta'ala will place His Absolute Reality into the soul of a human being. Usually, one who is seeking truth, to find the answers to the why and how of things, are good candidates to embrace Al-Islam. Thus, I ask the non-Muslims who are reading this message, to set aside the misconceptions propagated against Islam by the Temporal Powers. All the Prophets from Adam, to Abraham, to Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (peace by upon them all) surrendered their wills to the Will of The Creator. Thus, by definition of Islam, they are all Muslim, and they co-exist with us in this universe. For those who have the eyes to see and the hearts to hear, know that we are as one.
The Muslim Ummah no longer has a Caliph, nor is the Shariat and its’ subsequent Judicial System with us. It was decimated and destroyed at the end of the First World War, by what I shall term "The Temporal Powers". The Temporal Powers carved the “Islamic Empire” into the existing puppet states, who are governed by only those who follow deviant sects. In essence the Muslim Ummah is like a giant whose head has been removed. People wonder why Muslims don't speak out strongly against terrorism, corruption, or whatever, but how shall they speak when the head no longer exists and there is no true voice left to be heard? Who controls the media that strives to stifle The corrupt regimes won’t dare go against their sponsors?
To the non-Muslim, there is little knowledge of Prophecy. We, however have the source of knowledge at our fingertips. We know of the prophecies of Al-Mahdi, Dajaal and the return of Isa(pbuh): who the Christians know as Jesus. We comprehend Allahu ta'ala's Plan for mankind.
I began this message with reference to the Hadith that even among the People of the Qibla, there would be deviant sects. We can not hide from that fact. However, by understanding our relationship with Allah, and purifying our bodies, hearts and souls, we can become fully balanced human beings. By touching the Infinite Love Allau ta'ala has placed in our hearts, we can make Peace a Reality.
I give the similitude of a hologram that holds a three dimensional image on it's photographic plate. Every point on the emulsion holds the total image of the object being viewed. Break the plate in half and each half will regenerate the total image. repeat the cutting again and again, and still the total image can be regenerated. However, the smaller the piece, the resolution starts to become lost. The edges become fuzzy, and more fuzzy.
Allahu ta'ala Illuminates our hearts, and the more and more the Muslim Ummah is on the same "wavelength", the clearer is the picture of Islam. The True Peace Is. There is no way to Peace. Peace is the Way. But the non-Muslim has no clue.
We are living in a tragic era. We are befret with warfare on many levels. Yet, in every tragedy, there is an opportunity for Dawah (propagation of Islam). The American and European people are not the governmental policies that have decimated the Muslim Ummah. Indeed, among them are many gentle, inquiring hearts that may by the Grace of Allah embrace Al-Islam. It is a waste of energy to lump them all into one basket and sink to name calling. Educate the people to the reality of the Temporal Powers, speak from the heart out of charity for the blind, the starving, the tortured souls of this world. Help bring Allahu ta'alas' Light into the world for others to know and share.
For the Muslim Ummah to regain it's noble character in the eyes of the world, we must build on our inner strength, moral character and above all, exercise the best adab (manners) in all our transactions and dealings with the world around us. To be exemplars of Peace, gives the Power of your Rabb into your right hand. Then can you truly wield the Sword of Truth. Only remember, we have no power, in and of ourselves. Our only power is Our Rabb. And the only way to access that power is by being an "empty" vessel, with a pure heart, unclouded by the colors of our personal feelings. (The study of Quran and Hadith are our best guides). If we are strong in the ways of truth and peace, we will have attained the "superior" position in the world and it's matters.
The end of exisence will overtake us soon enough.
When Allahu ta'ala sends the great smoke upon the earth that shall take the soul of every believer, whosoever has an atoms weight of Iman (faith), will ascend to Him. Only the absolute disbelievers shall be on the earth when the final signs of Prophecy are sent upon them.
Worry not about those who are already with Him. Concentrate on the living, manifesting Allah’s Absolute Reality for them to Know and Embrace.
Ya Allah, Guide us all to the Straight Path.
Peace,
Muhammad Hasan Mubarak
