Peace to All...Real Objective Is Purification .. Ways and Means

[HIND]

=1= The real objective is purification of the Self. Holy Ibrahim
prayed (2:130) for the advent of the great prophet with four
excellences including purification as the result... Allah mentioned the
acceptance of prayer (2:152, 3:165, 62:3) with bringing the
purification at earlier order as the instantaneous objective.... Faith
in the Divine revelation and faith in the Unseen grants one an insight
to witness miracles. This purifies the 'self' further, which leads to
development in comprehending and imbibing Divine attributes and
further spiritual development to the point when one's heart is
purified of all adulteration.
***
=2= The great Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) and his
Book did purify hearts. His Companions gradually developed in
spirituality; however, their purification was instantaneous. The
blessed being of this Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him)
and his each deed was a 'sign' for those with insight. This is the
reason why people like Hadhrat Khadija and Hadhrat Abu Bakr (may Allah
be pleased with them both) accepted his message without any proof or
reasoning.
***
=3=The mention of purification before teaching of the Book and wisdom
(62:3) is indicative of the fact that a higher level of faith
encourages the spirit of *we hear, and we obey* (2:286)
***
=4= Explains the blessed Promised Messiah: Allah's Book teaches us to
have faith and to believe and that is what will bring us salvation
rather than demanding for reasoning and not believing unless faith is
mathematically proven. If the Prophet's (peace and blessings of Allah
be on him) teaching is to be accepted in this manner then this is not
compliance of the Prophet. When an honest person accepts Divine
commandments and prophecies through the agency of a truthful person he/
she is blessed. This is why it is Allah's way that first one has to be
obedient by believing in the Unseen, it is after this that spiritual
knowledge and discernment is attained.
***
=5= The prayer of holy Ibrahim (2:130) ends with the Divine
attributes of The Mighty and The Wise --- whereas the verse in its
'response' (2:152) ends in the words '...that which you did not know.'
......Holy Ibrahim used divine attributes The Mighty and The Wise
acknowledging that Allah alone knew the time of coming of this great
prophet... In fulfilment of this prayer, Allah declares that this
Prophet '...teaches you that which you did not know.' (2:152). That is,
a Book and Signs were revealed with knowledge that was not known
before, with prophecies which would be perceived with the passage of
time.
***
=6=*He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book; in it there are
verses that are decisive in meaning - they are the basis of the Book -
and there are others that are susceptible of different interpretations...
* (3:8) ---'decisive in meaning' connotes those matters which were
not known before. The Arabic word 'muhkam' means something that is
safe from any sort of change or that which does not even have a shadow
of doubt and is decisive, whereas, by contrast the other kind of
verses connotes that which may have different meanings and import....
The import of 'susceptible of different interpretations' is that the
verses do not conflict with the ones that are 'decisive in meaning'.
If one does not understand something then Allah's help should be
sought while purifying one's heart. Allah has power over everything
and opens up one's perception.
***
=7= People have tried to alter this teaching but they have not
succeeded and will indeed never succeed. At the top of each century a
mujjaddad (reformer) has been coming for this 'purifier' and there
have been religious scholars and jurist. Not the kind of religious
scholars we have today. Indeed, it was for the safeguard of this
teaching that the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) was sent in
accordance with the promise made to the 'purifier' (peace and
blessings of Allah be on him).
***
=8= The verse in acceptance of Hadhrat Ibrahim's prayer (62:3) ends
with the words, '...they have been, before, in manifest misguidance.'
just as the other acceptance verse (3:165) does. This favour was
bestowed by Allah at a time when there was disorder on the earth, the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) recited the Signs of
Allah, purified people, gave them the teaching of the Book and the
very same Arabs who were steeped in ignorance brought about a
revolutionary change in the world.
***
=9=In surah Jumma there is mentioned the continuity of blessing of
advent of the great Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him)
in later dark age...O those who associate themselves with the great
Prophet (p.b.u.h) whose teaching is going to be the source to purify
hearts till the Day of Judgement - in order to demonstrate the
luminosity of this teaching, to purify people on a large scale and to
sow the seeds of purity and wisdom in those spiritually weak a prophet
has come who is a slave of the great Prophet (p.b.u.h), he has come to
take people to God in these difficult times.... He is indeed the one
about whom the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h) had prophesised that when faith
would be as remote as the Plaides a person from the race of Hadhrat
Salman Farsi who bring it back to earth.......Anyone who has perception
can see the current times are identical to the ones prophesised....Self
purification, practice the teachings and spreading light to everywhere
is needed....His holy Caliph said the Promised Messiah (on whom be
peace) had brought this revolution. It is to be carried further. May
we never cease to have purity in our hearts, may Allah enable us to do
so... Promised divine peace in latter days at ww.alislam.org :
