Islam Mein Darhi Ka Hukam Kiyon Aaya?

Muslim scholars recently issued a joint fatwa (religious opinion) stating that growing a beard is obligatory upon all Muslims so that they do not resemble the non-Muslims, as instructed by the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). But does this mark of distinction still apply in this day and age, where growing a beard has become part of men’s fashion regardless of religious affiliation?

Summary:

- Neither Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) nor God wish for us to be complete idiots who blindly believe in anything they are told. You are responsible for your own grave and God has granted you some level of intellect which he expects you to use. Shoulder the responsibility of your own religiosity and use your common sense when you do. There is nothing illogical in Islam, there is a reason behind everything.

- Many of the Customs of the Prophet related directly to the particular time it was practised. At the time of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), the Arab Jews used to grow their moustaches and shave off their beards. So Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) advised the Muslims to do the opposite: grow their beards and shave their moustaches as a mark of distinction. However, this identifier became invalid when the hypocrites infiltrated the ranks of the Muslims. Even if you were to grow a beard, it would no longer serve the purpose it was intended for. In modern times, people grow beards who don’t even follow a religion.

- Many Customs are no longer applicable. For example, Tayammum is the act of dry ablution with sand. This was allowed because travellers in Arabia would go on long journeys where they would not have water for miles. However, it is not permissible when you are sitting in your home on a cold day and decide to do Tayammum with sand because you don’t want to get wet.

‘Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) has the best of characters.’ - Koran 68:4

‘Verily! Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) is an excellent example for you…’ - Koran 33:21

- To have a good character is a timeless Custom. This is a Custom of the Prophet that you can follow in today’s day and age. You have to form your character in accordance to the example of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), but you don’t know how. Before you focus on the Customs through which the world might recognise you as a Muslim, turn your attention towards the Customs which make you a follower of the Prophet in the eyes of God: enlighten your heart. God says that he neither looks at your bodies nor deeds, but rather shining hearts and the intentions therein.

‘My eyes sleep but my heart does not sleep.’ - Prophetic Tradition

- What Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) meant was that his heart is always engaged in the invocation of God’s name.

Darood Sharif Ki Fazilat

Younus AlGohar explains the meaning of ‘Rehmatallil Alameen (Blessings Upon the World)’, a title given to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). He also reveals the real reason God instructed the Muslims to send benedictions upon Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).

Summary:

- There are different sources of information. You may find that information in books, in the Koran, in the Prophetic Traditions or even the Spiritual Guide. There also comes a time in spirituality where one reaches the Guarded Tablet and receives information directly. Whatever I have heard from His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi, I relay it verbatim without any additions from my side. If I were to tamper with His words, it would mean that I have nothing to do with Him.

- God separated the timeline of this world into three separate eras: the Age of the Prophets, the Age of Blessings and the Age of Rapturous Love. We are in the last episode of the world. In the Age of the Prophets, people would worship and this would determine whether they would enter paradise of hellfire. The Age of Blessings was the era of the saints and it was known as the Age of Blessings because divine theophanies (Nazar-e-Rehmat) would befall the saints. Those sitting in the company of those saints would also reap the benefits from the divine theophanies.

- The word ‘Rehmat’ has completely different meanings depending on whether you are talking about it linguistically, religiously, practically or in terms of spirituality. Linguistically, it means blessings. Practically, it cleanses you of the Great Sins you may have committed. Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) is known as ‘Rehmatallil Alameen (Blessings Upon the World)’ because saints in his nation would cleanse the world of the Great Sins.

- Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) was extremely happy when Gabriel brought the verse of the Koran which advised the Devout Believers to send benedictions upon the Prophet (PBUH). The reason for this happiness was because it would serve to cleanse the sinners of their sins; God had promised to send blessings upon those who sent the benedictions.

- His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi declares that those who send benedictions upon Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), the lifespan of their Spiritual Heart is extended even if they don’t obtain the Opening of the Spiritual Heart before the age of 40. The act of sending benedictions upon the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) preserves the life of your Spiritual Heart.

Salat Ka Kya Matlab Hai?

Younus AlGohar provides an in-depth definition of Salat and its practical applications at the request of a viewer.

Summary:

Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) said, ‘There is no Salat without the presence of the heart.’

- The root word of Salat is ‘Sal’ which is borrowed from the Suryani language. Sal means ‘to link/to connect/to make a liaison.’ Just as you cannot establish a telephone connection without having a working phone, you cannot establish Salat without the involvement of the Spiritual Heart.

‘Whether you use the name Allah, Rehman or any other name for God, all of God’s names are good. However, whenever you establish a link with your Lord, you don’t need to say it loudly.’ - Koran 17:110

- Before the Night of Ascension, the word ‘Salat’ was mentioned in the Koran. God told Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) to establish Salat - meaning to stay linked to God - no matter what name of God he used. The Koran 108:1-3 also used the word ‘Fasal’, telling Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) to establish and maintain his link with God.

- In the pre-Islamic era, there were 360 idols in the Kaaba which the Infidels of Mecca used to worship and revere. They would prostrate before the idols and when they were asked what they were doing, they would say that they were establishing a link with their Lord. The word they used to use to describe this was Salat. The counter-narrative from God on this matter was the revelation of the five time’s prayer, Salat. Many things in Islam were adopted from the pre-Islamic era. Salat simply means, ‘the worship which connects you to God.’ Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) used to establish a link with God before and after the Night of Ascension.

‘Protect that which lies between your ribs [and connects you to God, your heart].’ - Koran 2:238

- On the Night of Ascension, Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) went to see God but he was told to wait because God at the time was in Salat - meaning that he was in contact with somebody

‘Establish a link with me (Salat). If you want to establish a link with me, engage in the invocation of my name.’ - Koran 20:14

Nafs Ki Iqsam

*** ENABLE CC FOR ENGLISH SUBTITLES ***


Younus AlGohar explains the difference between Nafs-e-Ammarah (Commanding Self), Nafs-e-Lawamma (Blameworthy Self) and Nafs-e-Mulhima (Inspired Self).

Summary:

-  Coming out of the state of the Commanding Self is crucial. People used to engage in loud chanting of the Motto of Faith after performing Salat; this would improve the state of their Lower Self, eventually bringing it into the state of the Blameworthy Self.

The Koran 12:53 says that the Commanding Self compels you to do bad.

- Even when you don't feel like sinning, if you have a Commanding Self, it will come under waves of passion during which you will be compelled to sin. If you have a Commanding Self, you feel content having sinned; this is a sign of recognition for the Commanding Self. You are content when you have troubled, harmed or hurt others.

- The sign of recognition for the Blameworthy Self is if one happens to sin, then he regrets it afterwards. He feels shame and blameworthiness. He thinks, 'I should not have done it.'

- One with an Inspired Self doesn't feel much of a craze or passion to sin. But sometimes the circumstances are such that they feel inclined to sin. He feels he is vulnerable in that moment. That is when, spiritually, he receives a message from his Spiritual Guide. He sees his Spiritual Guide's face and it saves him from sinning. An Inspired Self does not allow you to commit a sin. When the Spiritual Guide comes to know that his disciple is about to commit a sin, then the Spiritual Guide will send a message to the disciple and the invocation in their heart will speed up as a result. This is how they will be prevented from sinning.

Aaj Ke Dor Mein Murshid Kese Talash Karen?

How do you find a true Spiritual Guide in today’s day and age, especially when there are so many pseudo-Sufis who have only taken the guise of Spiritual Guides to take people’s money?

Summary:

- The problem with Muslims today is that they do not have the criteria to recognise a true Spiritual Guide. They worship and recite the Koran but they are unable to find the right path. There are two aspects of Sharia: outer and inner. The Muslims have confined themselves to the outer Sharia and do not turn their attention to the inner Sharia, which would purify their Lower Selves. Sectarianism is rampant and the Muslims have developed a very close-minded attitude towards the religion. When they are unable to recognise true Spiritual Guides, how will they recognise Imam Mehdi?

- The world is very strange. Pseudo-Sufis who are only after people’s money will have millions of followers. In contrast, people are so quick to criticise and disrespect those who give them the practical criteria through which they can recognise a true Spiritual Guide and enlighten themselves. The reason why Muslims are in such a terrible state is largely due to the religious clerics, who have projected such a twisted, superficial understanding of the religion to the public.

Koran 39:22 says, ‘One who has obtained Shahr-e-Sadr (Opening of the Chest) with God’s Personal Name for Islam shall receive divine energy from his Lord.’

- The people who recite the Koran are unaware that Shahr-e-Sadr is the core of Islam. Ask those claiming to be Spiritual Guides to grant you Shahr-e-Sadr, because this is something only a Spiritual Guide can do. No religious cleric or pseudo-Sufi can do this. True Spiritual Guides will, in the first instance, insert God’s name and divine energy in your heart. They will not ask you about how much you worship before they do this.

‘Do not follow those whose hearts I have kept heedless of my remembrance.’ - Koran 18:28

- Ask the religious clerics for proof of their hearts being engaged in God’s remembrance. If their hearts are heedless of the invocation of God’s name, then how would they grant the invocation of God’s names to others? You will not recognise a true Spiritual Guide until you know why you need one - and the reason you need a Spiritual Guide is to obtain Shahr-e-Sadr.

‘Verily! I have sent a model to follow in the guise of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) for those who seek me, [have hope] in the Day of Judgement and who engage in my remembrance abundantly.’ Koran 33:21

- The people who seek God are advised to follow Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and try to become like him. The job of the Spiritual Guide is to ensure that happens. Koran 33:21 is like your charter - if you follow Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), you will obtain everything mentioned therein. To follow the Esoteric Customs of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), you need a Spiritual Guide who will connect you spiritually to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).

- A true Spiritual Guide will insert the Motto of Faith that you recite verbally into your heart. He will make your heart invoke upon God. One who does that is your Spiritual Guide.

Zikar Allah Kya Hai?

*** ENABLE CC FOR ENGLISH SUBTITLES ***


Younus AlGohar explains what Zikar Allah (Invocation of God’s name) is at the request of a viewer.

Summary:

'The obligation of Zikar Allah comes before all other obligations.' - Prophetic Tradition

- Repeating God's name over and over is the invocation of God's name (Zikar). It is greater than Salat and it is the foremost obligation in the religion. Obligations are either temporary or eternal. Salat is a temporary obligation and Zikar is an eternal obligation.

God said in Koran 4:103 that you must stay engaged in God's invocation while sitting, standing and even sleeping.

A Prophetic Tradition states those who fail to fulfil the eternal obligation, their temporary obligations are not accepted either.

- There are many forms of worship but the invocation of God is God’s favourite. God particularly enjoys it when a human being in the Terrestrial Realm has engaged his heart in invocation of God’s name and the voice of his heart echoes in the Empyrean of God. When the sound of the invocation reaches up there but the one invoking upon God is unseen, the angels ask God, 'Whose voice is this?' God says smugly, 'This is the voice of the human being whom you refused to prostrate to.'

- Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) told a gathering of Companions including Umar-e-Farooq and Abu Bakr Siddiq, ‘When you see the Gardens of Paradise on Earth, enter and graze there.’ Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) explained that the Gardens of Paradise were the Zikar gatherings - and he advised them to participate in them. He said 'graze' because those whose inner faculties are not enlightened are known as animals in spiritual circles; however, divine energy would still enter them (but not settle there) when they sat in the Zikar gatherings. So this was one way that Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) was starting to give the Companions who were unenlightened spiritual knowledge.

One Prophetic Tradition states, 'Engage in God's invocation so passionately that when a hypocrite looks at you, he accuses you of showing off.'

'Engage in as passionate invocation of my name as you used to come here and praise your ancestors.' - Koran 2:200

- The Naqshbandi Sufi Order does not advise Zikar-e-Jehr, but there are many benefits to Zikar-e-Jehr. The veils of heedlessness are removed with Zikar-e-Jehr. The entire field of Zikar is linked to Sufism. People of every religions engage in invocation of God's name because Zikar is not confined to any religion - it is to do with God.

- Salat is a form of worship within the religion. No Prophetic Tradition says that the first question you will be asked on the Day of Judgement will be about your Salat.

'Neither your sons nor wealth shall benefit you on that Day. On that Day, only he shall be successful who brings with him a Secured Heart.' - Koran 26:88-89

The Koran 29:45 says, 'Salat stops you from committing bad deeds and immoral acts, whereas invocation of God's name is greater.'

Kya Auliya Se Madad Mangna Jayez Hai?

*** ENABLE CC FOR ENGLISH SUBTITLES ***


Younus AlGohar’s definitive answer in light of the Koran to a question that is hotly debated in the Islamic community: is it Shirk (appointing a partner with God) to seek help from the saints?

Summary:

‘God is your Helper, Gabriel is your Helper, the Sauliheen and the Devout Believers are your Helpers and even the Archangels are your Helpers.’ - Koran 66:4

Ever since sectarianism has dominated Islam, the sects have projected various notions. Some say it is Shirk to seek help from the saints or Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). However, this verse of the Koran demonstrates that none of that is true.

The word used in this verse is ‘Moula’ which translates to ‘one who helps.’ Moula in Arabic and Ghous in Urdu mean the same thing.

Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) isn't mentioned in this verse by name because when God says, ‘[That] God is your Helper,’ he is referring to the presence of God in Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). That God who resides in Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) is your Helper according to Koran 66:4. If it were not for the word 'Hu (that)' in Arabic here, it would mean something else.

Do not for a moment believe that it is wrong or Shirk to seek help from the saints or the Sauliheen. This is the verdict given directly by the Koran.
