Islamic Judiciary & ISIS

In response to Younus AlGohar's article entitled Who Are the Yazidis and Why Do ISIS Want to Kill Them? Christopher M. wrote the following comment:

This was so deep – so serious. It honestly gave me a whole new perspective on religion. I was only able to understand the English part, as I am a 22 [year old] male, Bay Area native. But it was really encouraging to know get an insider’s point of view on the real war that’s going on in Iraq – the war on religion. ISIS’ message is so toxic and contradicting. They continue to exclaim “Islam!” but contradict the very idea of that religion. ISIS are killing innocence people, and forcing women to be their sex slaves. ISIS screams out the religion’s name – Islam – that stems from the very idea to never judge a person, as God will have the final judgement on judgement day; a.k.a. The end of your life. It’s an unfortunate thing to have to think about, that your life will come to an end, because we all have to come to a close. It’s an ugly truth, and for someone to wish that upon others are the real evil in the world. It has nothing to do with religion, evil just lingers in their core.

When this comment was shared with Younus AlGohar, he elaborated on the subject. 

What ISIS is doing cannot remotely be linked to Islam, to be honest with you.

Let me tell you what a majority of Muslims think about Islam. A majority of Muslims think that the tenets of Islam cannot be modified, changed or updated. Allegedly speaking, in order to be a pure and true Muslim, one must adhere to the philosophy of Islam as it was presented at the time of Prophet Mohammad. However, this is not true.

Islam, like any other religion in the world, needed to go through the process of spiritual evolution. This was due to the fact that in every new age, the way people live their life changes. Circumstances change. What was significant 1400 years ago appears to be insignificant today.

Therefore, there has to be divinely monitored modification. It would be done under supervision of a divine vicegerent - somebody who has been anointed by God to carry out what has been outdated in the fundamental tenets of Islam.

Killing somebody for any reason is strictly prohibited until that person is a criminal and a liability. But then, there are courts who will look into the matter. If the accused person is found to be a criminal, then obviously that criminal has to be punished. In the course of fulfilling the requirement of bringing the criminals to justice, if somebody is awarded capital punishment, that is not an act of tyranny.

However, if some Muslim organisations or Muslims individually assume that some other Muslims or non-Muslims are impure or not obedient to God, they do not have any right to kill anybody.

No court on Earth is permitted by God to punish somebody who doesn’t believe in God or to punish somebody who they think is impure in his practice of Islam.

Crimes against humanity can be dealt with by human beings on Earth. For example, if you kill somebody, human beings have been delegated by God to do justice and bring the criminal to the judiciary system. It is not like somebody is a killer and you on your own want to take the law in your hand and punish the criminal - this is not allowed. It is not permissible under any Islamic judiciary system.

If somebody you think is disobedient to God, again, it is not between you and him. It is between him and God. God is the master of the Day of Judgement. On the Day of Judgement God will decide what he wants to to do with that disobedient person. Maybe he can forgive him, and maybe he will want to punish him. It is entirely up to God.

You as a human being cannot punish people for crimes done against God or religion.

What ISIS is doing to Yazidi women is a brutal act of tyranny and nothing else. Making sex slaves isn to even remotely linked with any interpretation of the Quran and Islam. ISIS ideology is a criminal ideology. That is what it is.

According to the Quran, ‘Killing one innocent human being is equal to killing the entire humanity.’

According to Prophet Mohammad, you cannot even kill an animal. When Prophet Mohammad did not even allow Muslims to kill an animal, how can they kill innocent human beings?

The very act of suicide is strictly prohibited and unlawful in Sharia Law (endorsed by Prophet Mohammad by his custom and practice). When suicide is unlawful and there is a clear prohibition about suicide, how can somebody become a suicide bomber, kill himself and kill other human beings? How can anyone declare this sheer atrocity to be a favourable act of a a true believer (Momin) in the eyes of God?

This is ridiculing the religion of Islam. It has nothing to do with Islam. As far as the original form of Islam is concerned, this is absurd. This is nothing but tyranny and brutality.

Report: Messiah Foundation Canada at the Body Soul and Spirit Expo

Last week, Messiah Foundation Canada partook in the Body Soul and Spirit Expo in Ottawa.

Around 800 people attended the expo, where approximately 50 booths were set up. People were very curious about our message and the response was wonderful.

Mr Moin of Messiah Foundation Canada had the following comments:

‘One man came to our booth saying that he saw our leaflet somewhere in public and visited our website. From there he got the information that we would be at the expo. So, he came to our booth and we explained to him more about Lord Ra Riaz's teachings and revolutionary message. He was very happy.

‘Another lady came to our booth. When we explained the message of Lord Ra Riaz to her, she said that she was already aware having watched our videos on YouTube.

‘It was full moon nights so we told attendees that they can also obtain Invocation of the Heart or spiritual healing from the image of our Lord on the Moon.

‘One woman came to our booth and received the message of Lord Ra Riaz. She was broadcasting the expo live on the internet. One of the questions she asked us was how much we get paid by Messiah Foundation for our work; when we explained that we are volunteers doing this as a labour of love, she was amazed!’

#AskYounusAlGohar | Kiya Hazoor Pak ﷺ‎ Qasim Aur Waris Hain?

Younus AlGohar responds to a viewer who objected to his statement about Prophet Mohammad being appointed to distribute what God grants.

Main points:

- The full Prophetic Tradition referred to mentions that God grants people understanding of the religion. The other part is that God is the one who grants things and Prophet Mohammad is the one who distributes God’s bounty.

- The viewer tried to insinuate that understanding of the religion is given by God directly. However, God is giving understanding of the religion through Prophet Mohammad. If you can prove that God directly gives someone understanding of the religion, then we will say that we are wrong.

- In the Quran it is said that God grants understanding of the religion to the Qalb (heart). Without Shahr-e-Sadr, without awakening and enlightening your Qalb, how will you get understanding of the religion? For Shahr-e-Sadr you need to adopt Prophet Mohammad’s spirituality.

#AskYounusAlGohar | Kashf, Muraqiba Aur Mushaida Ki Tashreeh

Younus AlGohar, at the request of a viewer, gives the comprehensive definitions of Kashf, Muraqiba and Mushaida.

Main points:

- Kashf means to for something hidden to be revealed. It is a spiritual term. There are different types of Kashf. The most common type of Kashf is known as Kashf-e-Nasooti and it is related to the Nafs. It can be very deceptive. In a hybrid car, it is not always clear when the car is running on electricity and when it is running on petrol. Similarly, Kashf-e-Nasooti runs on energy - whether it be divine energy (Noor) or negative energy (Naar). A lot of energy is used in Kashf. When you run out of divine energy, the Kashf will begin to run on negative energy. When you see things through Kashf with negative energy, it is all falsehood. However you can never tell. Therefore, Kashf from God is not permissible for seekers of the spiritual path.

- Kashf-e-Malaqooti is obtained after purification of the heart; it is trustworthy. Kashf-e-Jabrouti is not common; it is available for only the most elite saints. There are 100 stages of Faqr. When your heart is enlightened, that is when you embark on the stages of Faqr. From 1-16 stages, you won’t see anything. You won’t have Kashf. If you did get Kashf, it is satanic. When you enter the 17th stage, then you may see something to strengthen your belief and trust. When you enter the 18th stage, again your spiritual eyes are shut. You won’t get Kashf from God. Then when you finish all 100 stages, then and only then will you get real Kashf.

- There are many subtleties in your body, which are related to different celestial realms. Through spirituality, you awaken those souls, strengthen them with divine energy and make them capable of performing spiritual journey to their respective realms. Muraqiba is when these souls leave our chests and they reach their respective realms.

- Mushaida is simply when you see with your own eyes.

Quote of the Day: The Heart is the...

‘The heart is the dwelling of God.’ - Younus AlGohar

10th Muharram (The Day of Ashura)

On 10th of Muharram around 1400 years ago, the beloved grandson of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), Hussain Ibn Ali, was martyred in Karbala, Iraq.

What happened then was utterly brutal and barbaric. And those who carried out the atrocity were so-called Muslims who recited the same Kalima (Declaration of Faith).

I salute Imam Hussain for his utter bravery and unshakeable trust in the Prophet Mohammad.

It's a pity that Islam, since it's beginning, has witnessed bloodshed, disobedience and hunger for power in some of its followers.

The reason why those Muslims killed the holy Household of the Prophet Mohammad is not a secret. Clerics all over the Muslim world orate it profusely during this time of the year, however, why they failed to respect the fact that [those so-called Muslims] were blasphemous to the Household of the Prophet Mohammad is the darkness of their heart and [lack of] purification of the Ego.

Any Muslim without the inner purification and enlightenment of the heart has the potential of becoming Yazid bin Muawiyya and Shimr Laeen.

I think the Muslims had better incline to inner purification and enlightenment of the heart.

What some Muslims do today in the name of celebration of the sorrow of the martyrdom in Karbala doesn't make sense and it doesn't make them better Muslims either.

Beating oneself will not help one make Imam Hussain happy. What will make Imam Hussain happy is the acquisition of inner purification and enlightenment of the heart.

Happy Youm-e-Riaz 2016!

Happy Youm-e-Riaz 2016 to all Goharians! On this blessed day, Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi lifted a veil and began the process of introducing His inner self to the world for the first time. On the day, we express our gratitude for Lord Ra Riaz's benevolence upon us.

#AskYounusAlGohar | Minjanib Allah Hidayat Par Kaun Hai?

Younus AlGohar answers a question from a viewer about the technicalities involved in performance of worship whilst facing the Kaaba (in Mecca). Whilst doing so, he explains how God grants guidance.

Main points:

- As long as your heart is not connected with God and directed towards God, you’ll need to respect the pointer that is the Kaaba. The destination is not the Kaaba; the destination is God. When your heart is enlightened and directed towards God, then you can face anywhere and perform Salat (worship). When God is in you, you will be greater than the Kaaba - the Kaaba is just stone whereas man has the potential to be the greatest of all creation. When God is in you, the Kaaba will circumbulate you.

- In the first instance when you’re being guided, your heart generates divine energy (Noor). That divine energy will first clean your heart, and then if your heart is fully enlightened, the divine energy will enter your bloodstream. As long as the divine energy generated in the heart is only enough to take care of the needs of the heart, you will be known as just a Momin (true believer), but your heart won’t be directed to God.

- The prayer mentioned in Quran 1:6-7 is for those who have already awakened their heart, but they want God to turn their hearts towards him (and reach the stage of Qalb-e-Muneeb). This verse is asking God to take them towards the blessing of seeing God. For Momins, the heartbeats are the legs through which you walk on the Straight Path. The second part of this prayer asks God to not put them on the path of those who have earned his anger. Those people have earned his anger who worship God and invoke his name whilst ignoring the conditions he has put on them to do so - namely, they have not awakened their souls and they have ignored spiritual knowledge. God does not accept the worship of the people in whose fate he has not written faith.

- Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi has explained how to recognise if God has guided someone. God guides the heart. It is not your fleshy heart that God guides. It is the spiritual heart that sits atop the fleshy heart. There are 180 000 veils on top of the heart that do not get burnt through worship, fasting etc. To awaken the heart, you need the merciful sight of the spiritual guide, which will burn those veils. The spiritual guide will implant the seed of God’s name in your heart. Then the repetition of God’s name in your heart will begin. This is guidance from God.

- Guidance from God is not given without God’s permission. Before the spiritual guide implants the seed of God’s name in the aspirant’s heart, he takes his likeness to the court of God. God asks, ‘Why have you brought him?’ The spiritual guide replies, ‘He wants to befriend you.’ Then if God is in the mood to guide the aspirant, he will investigate his beliefs and actions. After being completely satisfied, God will command that his heart be initiated with God’s name. Then the spiritual guide, with God’s permission, will implant the seed of God’s name in the heart of the aspirant.

#AskYounusAlGohar | Ibadat Ke Bawajood Aaj Ka Musalman Maghloob Kiyon Hai!

Younus AlGohar speaks on the misconceptions about God’s love that most Muslims have.

Main points:

- The main goal of every religion has been God’s love. There is a misconception about divine love: people think their worship and fasting is proof of their love for God. However if we ask them, ‘If you wife does everything for you, is that a guarantee that she loves you?’ So then how are your prayers, fasting and giving of alms guarantors of your love for God? It may be that your wife cleans your clothes, looks after your kids and cooks and cleans because she lives in your house; if she doesn’t you might divorce her. Similarly you might worship to avoid hell.

- If Muslims would become a lover of God from worship, why are they separated into different denominations? The first condition in Islam, the core of the religion, is declaration by the tongue and affirmation by the heart - which Muslims today don’t have. Their hearts don’t have divine energy; they don’t have faith.

- Proof that Muslims today are not Momineen (true believers): according to the Quran, God said they would be dominant upon the world as long as they were Momineen. Today, Muslims are not dominant upon the world; rather they are suffering. This proves they are not Momineen.

#AskYounusAlGohar | Love Of God: Core Of Every Religion

Mohammad Burhan via email said, ‘Sir, i want to convert to Sufism and my wish is to join [HDE] Gohar Shahi. Help me please, how can I convert to Sufism? Please reply to me.’

Shehzad Rafiq Chatta asked via Facebook messenger, ‘Raiwind Tableeghi Group look like a group of saints and use extremely soft words. But they also support Taliban, Jesh-e-Muhammad, etc. I am an eyewitness and I know many such preachers who denounced terrorism in lectures but promote Taliban in mutual gatherings. Are these preachers, and Tariq Jameel also a part of the Dajjal?  Is Raiwind a nursery for the Taliban? My humble opinion is that Tableeghi Jamat Raiwind is part of Dajjal because they hate all followers of spiritualism.’

When you ask me questions about spirituality, then I speak on the subject of spirituality without hesitation, freely - because I am discussing knowledge. I am not commenting on people. It is a very difficult job to comment on individuals. You cannot comment on people that you don’t know, that you have not ever met; you cannot comment if you have no information about their character and belief system. If this is the case, then I do not comment on individuals. It is not my job. I will not be doing justice with who I am by commenting on somebody that I am not aware of, or commenting on somebody whose religious background and belief system is not known to me.

I cannot comment on a person that I do not personally know. However individuals who are famous, their creed system, belief system, religious denomination and affiliations are prominent, and what they believe is available in books, on the internet, in their lectures and videos - [I can comment on them]. I can comment on individuals who either cause to create chaos among Muslims and among people of other religions; those who promote hatred among religions.

Obviously, some of these religious seminaries are so cunning and clever that they will use soft words to attract you. They will be gently spoken, but you wouldn’t be able to see that they’re holding a dagger behind their back. Very discreetly and quietly, they will hammer into your brain some abhorred, admonishable beliefs which will eat up your trust in Prophet Mohammad and your faith in God. In no time, you will find yourself confused with the belief system that you have always practised, the belief system of your ancestral lineage.

Certain things have become prominent in the last couple of decades especially in Southeast Asia - for example India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. These are three countries where there have been a lot of saintly individuals who have acquired a higher spiritual status in the eyes of God. Who were able to communicate with God, who were able to show you the right path following divine delegation. Throughout these three countries for centuries, people would follow mystical doctrine: the doctrine of spirituality, love, Sufism.

Sufis starting from Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani to Moulana Jalaluddin Rumi, from Moulana Rumi to Khwaja Gharib un Nawaz of Ajmer Sharif. From Ajmer Sharif to Nizamuddin Auliya of Delhi. From Delhi to Adjhodan, Pakpattan Sharif in Pakistan [where Baba Farid lived]. From Baba Farid to Lahore, [where Data Ali Hajweri lived]. These were the individuals who practically and perfectly secured their heart against all evil. They purgated their Carnal Self (Nafs), they introduced their Carnal Self through divine energy to practical spiritual obedience to God. When they stopped sinning, they did stop sinning because they did not have the desire to sin anymore, not because the law of Sharia did not allow them to do it. They were able to personally abhor bad deeds; they eliminated all  elements of evil from themselves. This came after vigorous austerity, a lot of struggle against their own self. In order to purify themselves, they refrained from all sorts of comforts whether those comforts were allowed by the religion or not allowed by the religion.

They turned their face away from different types of comforts just to practically and perfectly find divine proximity; nearness to God.

His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi uttered out a historical formula. He said, ‘If you want God’s nearness and are seeking God’s proximity, the only way to finding God’s nearness is through God’s love.

If you will ever find God’s nearness, that will be through God’s love. Your ultimate goal is to know how to love God. God’s love is the central idea of every divinely ordained celestial book, whether it be the Torah, the Bible or the Quran revealed upon Prophet Mohammad.

The central idea of every celestial book is God’s love and God’s love is something that will let you please God instantly.

According to the Quran, no matter how dedicated and great a sinner you are, God promises to wash away all your sins should you manage to love God. 

God’s love is the central idea of any monotheistic religion.

In every religion, the dispensary of God’s love was the appointed messenger of that religion.

For example, the followers of Abraham were to find God’s love through Abraham’s divine mediumship. To the Christians, the divine dispensary of God’s love is Lord Jesus Christ. That is why the Bible says, ‘Only through me, you will go to the Father.’

Do not make an error here. This verse from the Bible that says that you will reach the Father only through Jesus is confined to Christians - not to the Jews, Muslims or any other religion. In a similar way, for Muslims, the dispensary of divine love is Prophet Mohammad.

The Quran 3:31 said, ‘Prophet Mohammad, tell them: if you want to love God, then imitate me.’

The translation is not, ‘Do as I do,’ rather the true translation and meaning of [the last words in this verse] is, ‘Be like I am.’

If offering Salat, fasting, growing a beard can be Sunnahs (Customs of the Prophet), then is being like Prophet Mohammad not a Sunnah of Prophet Mohammad? According to a beautiful Prophetic Tradition, ‘You will be like the one that you love.’

To love God is not a secret. Everybody will nod his head in positive. The problem is, they think they love God, but at the same time they love their wife, children, and mother and father also. The calamity upon calamity is that they love the [worldly luxuries] and money also.. They love being bad and being corrupt also.

It is not humanly possible to believe which acts of theirs is true. Are they true in their love for their parents, their children, their wives or their God? Which love is true when they love everybody? Then we will have to see in 24 hours of a day, where does most of their time go to - to God, their wife, children, towards earning money or towards slashing throats of innocents?

Look at these terrorists: how can one assume a murderer, a killer who is slaying innocent people will be accepted by God for paradise? Paradise not for terrorists. God has created paradise for peaceful people.

God’s love is the main theme of the religion.

Somebody asked, ‘I want to convert to Sufism.’ You don’t need conversion. Sufism is not a sect or religion.

Calling Sufism a sect or religion is a grave insult to Sufism. All regions are in need of spirituality; without spirituality no religion is valid.

Sufism is the soul of the religion and any religion in which the spiritual system has collapsed, that religion has collapsed; the followers of that religion scattered into many different groups, sects and denominations. The religion stopped rendering spiritual grace to its followers.

Sufism is enlightenment of the soul. Sufism doesn’t care whether you are a Christian, Jew, Hindu or Muslim. In order to become a Sufi you don’t need to change your religion. All you need to do is enlighten your soul and heart.

The heart is the place of love. When the seed of God’s name is transmitted into the chambers of the heart and the soul which is sitting on the heart is divinely triggered and activated, that soul will wake up. When the angel that sits on the fleshy heart - which is known as the spiritual heart (Qalb) - is awakened, that soul will do nothing else but repeat God’s name. The repetition of God’s name doesn’t stop because the heart doesn’t need to breathe.

In order to make divine energy, you have to say God’s name at least 101 times nonstop. If you do it with your tongue, you can never make divine energy. However, the heart doesn’t have to breathe; it doesn’t have kids, a wife, father or mother; it doesn’t go to a job. The heart is neither is it Punjabi, Pathan or Mahajir. The heart is the dwelling of God.

[According to famous poetry], ‘If you must, then demolish a mosque, temple or church, but you must never hurt anybody’s heart because the heart is the dwelling of God.’

When you hurt such a heart, God will be wrathful upon you.

Sufism tells you how to love God and what organ in your body should be engaged in the activity of God’s love. God’s love is not done through imagination. It is not about visualisation, concentration or meditation; it is an activity. When this activity takes place, God’s light is generated within the heart. That light will start to travel towards God. When that light reaches God, you are connected. That connection between your heart and God is actually God’s love.

God said in the Quran 2:152, ‘When you remember me, I shall remember thee.’

It is give and take. You never care about God, never want to know or love God, but when you are up against some kind of adversity, in trouble, then you cry. Then you hold a rosary and you ask religious people, ‘I’m stuck in trouble. How many times should I remember God in order for this trouble to go away?’ You’re there for a reason; you’re a selfish worshipper. You do not remember God for love; you do not remember God for the sake of remembering God. You remember God because you are in pain.

There is a saying from a Hindu saint, Sant Kabir, ‘When you are in pain, you remember God. When you are happy, you forget God. If you remembered God while you are happy, fool, the trouble would never come to you. You read all the books of the world but you did not become a saint of God. If you read two-and-a-half words of love you would have become a saint of God.’

It is all about love. Sufism teaches you how to love God genuinely.

The State of Pakistan and Its Future

If you do not know spirituality, you will just claim, ‘I love God,’ and God is not convinced. All these Muslims say that they love God, but why are they in trouble? How can it be that you love God, God loves you - yet you are crying with pain? How can it be that you love God and God loves you, yet you are dying every day; you have cancer, you don’t have clean water to drink, you don’t have gas in your stoves, you don’t have electricity and your milk is not pure. You go to a meat market, buy a lamb, eat it and find out that it was actually a donkey.

The Prime Minister of Pakistan (a Muslim-majority country) is corrupt: he is the second most corrupt man in the world. Islamic scholars are corrupt. Their politicians, teachers, and actors are corrupt. For example, Ayyan Ali was a model, a spinster for Asif Ali Zardari (a Pakistani politician); she was caught red handed at the airport carrying a huge amount of US dollars - $300 000 in cash. The businessmen in Pakistan are corrupt. [Pakistanis] are killing Shias, Sunnis and Sufis yet they all love God. There are at least 140 million Muslims in Pakistan alone and they all claim to love God.

Prophet Mohammad was leader of an army of 313 people; yet they were dominant. Why? Because their leader was Prophet Mohammad and the followers were all true believers (Momineen).

[Some Muslims today claim be to true believers but they are] raping 2-4 month old babies. They’re 40 and they want to marry 13-year-olds. This is not Islam. This is corruption.

In Pakistan, democracy is an excuse to do more and more corruption.

With what the politicians have done to Pakistan, Pakistan should have been destroyed long ago. There is a divine hand on this country, which is saving the country. The time is coming soon when this divine hand will show up his entire body and Pakistan will be the leader of God’s love.

#AskYounusAlGohar | True Definition Of Fasiq & Mushrik

Words like Kafir, Murtid, Fajir, Fasiq, etc. are alien words in our language. Especially non-Arab Muslims would never want to know the exact meaning of these words. In the back of their mind, they have a remote idea what it could mean but they don’t really know exactly what it means. There is nobody in this world who can give you the right understanding of these words. Why? Because no celestial book whether be it Torah, Bible or Quran can be understood without spiritual, mystical interpretation.

Always remember: you are a multidimensional creature. You’re not just your body. There are many faculties that make a human being, and there are many departments in a human being. You need many experts in order to explain your mythical being. You are a multi-layered creature, so when God addresses you, you need to know what department in you is being addressed.

Sometimes, God is addressing your soul; some other times he is addressing your heart. On some occasions, God is neither addressing your heart nor your soul; he is actually discussing your body and its deeds.

When the Quran is translated, the meaning of these words is taken from the dictionary. The words are not special when they appear in any celestial book. They’re the same words you use in day-to-day life. However, when certain words have religious or spiritual connotation they change their meaning dramatically.

For example there are two words in Arabic, Itteba and Itta’ah. Muslims are confused about it; they think both these words have the same meaning. That is the true. In a similar way, you need to understand what Kafir means, and what Kufr, Nifaq, Fisq, and Fajr are. These words, when they are used in day-to-day life among Arabs, have a different meaning. However, when they carry a religious or spiritual connotation, their meanings change altogether.

The Meaning of Fasiq

According to these half baked religious and so-called Sufi scholars, a Fasiq means someone who allegedly believes in a religion but he doesn’t practise the religion. In simple day-to-day lingo, we call such people non-practising Muslims and non-practising Christians. But I don’t agree to this [interpretation]. If you say, ‘I am hungry,’ but you don’t want to eat, can we say, ‘You are a non-practising hungry man?’ No, because it is impossible - if you are hungry, you must eat. Here is another example: if someone’s bladder is full, and nature’s call is on the edge, it won’t make sense if he says, ‘I can’t even move, my bladder is so full - but I don’t want to pee.’

Similarly, [in religion] either you believe it or you don’t; when you believe it then you practise it. The reason why people believe in a religion today but do not practise it is because they do not have the inner motivation. What the religious scholars describe of the paradise and its beautiful damsels does not lure people in, because people have already done everything in this world. They have seen everything. They want some solid reason to practise the religion.

People have seen the world. Religion is not helping anybody. It is making this world a chaotic place. Religions are dividing humanity, whatever religion that is. A religion is bad when it cannot provide you with a bond between hearts of humanity. A religion is a binding.

Fasiq does not mean somebody who believes in a religion but doesn’t practise it. Then what does it mean? A Fasiq is one who believes in a religion and he wants to practise that religion, but the worship he wants to carry out is not supported by his souls and heart. He is a person who ignores the interpretation of his prophet or messenger. For example, Prophet Mohammad said, ‘There is not salat without the purification of the heart.’ If you completely dismiss this divine advice and without it, you want to continue your practice, then this is Fisq [which would make you a Fasiq].

The Meaning of Mushrik

I have explained the meaning of Mushrik many times. Mushrik comes from the root word Shirakat, which means partnership. Mushrik is a very famous word among Muslims. 

Mushrik means, ‘One who appoints a partner with God.’ It is scientifically proven that a human being cannot have two biological fathers at a time. For example, a woman has sexual intercourse with one man; and soon after him, she has sexual intercourse with another man. Then she gets pregnant. Does it mean that the baby which is being conceived in the womb of that woman has two fathers? It is not scientifically possible. It is not the semen itself that will make a woman pregnant; there are live cells inside it. X and Y chromosomes: there are always two cells together - two from male and two from the female. These two cells mingle into each other; this is known as the process of fertilisation. It turns into a zygote and then embryo. Whenever the woman gets pregnant, either two cells from the first man will come into partnership with her cells or two cells from the other one. It is not like the cells of both males got mixed up and then they mingled with the cells of the female. This is how it can never be scientifically, medically or practically possible for someone to have two biological fathers. This is out of question.

Similarly, you cannot have two creators. When God wanted to create, he said the command, ‘Be’ and it was there. There was no partnership; God did it alone. But those who somehow or other appoint another partner with God, who say, ‘God didn’t do it alone. He took help from somebody in creation,’ they are known as Mushrik. They are those who think God did not do it all by himself.

Personally, I haven’t seen a Mushrik. In the eyes of Wahhabis, all Sufis are Mushrikeen.
