He Is The Seal Of The Prophets.
“Muhammad is not the father of any of your men,
but (he is) Rasulullah, and the Seal of the Prophets;
And Allah swt. has full knowledge of all things”
(Al Ahzab: 40).
He is no more than a Messenger, and there is no
more Messenger behind him,
If any do turn back on his heels, it will not
make the least harm to Him, but Allah will swiftly reward those who serve with
gratitude.
Those who believe in the Revelation sent down to
Muhammad saw.,
For it is the Truth from their Lord, He will
remove from them their ills and improve their condition,
And admit them to the Gardens beneath which
rivers flow as He has announced before.
Those who reject the Revelation, for them is
destruction,
Allah swt. will render their deeds astray from
their mark, He has made their deeds fruitless.
Bandung, 22 Muharram 1428 H.
Oppressed and Injured Their Own Souls.
From the traces of ‘Ad and Thamud people, it will
appear their inheritage buildings that the Evil One made their deeds alluring
to them, and kept them back from the Path; though they were gifted with
Intelligence and Skill.
As Qarun claimed that his worldly glitter has
been given to him because of a certain knowledge which he had,
He did not know that Allah swt. has destroyed,
before him, generations which were superior to him in strength and greater in
the amount of riches they had collected.
Allah drowned the people of Noah, when they
rejected the apostles,
And Allah swt. made them as a Sign for mankind,
and Allah has prepared for all wrong-doers a grievous penalty,
“Each one of them We (Allah)seized for his crime,
of them against some We sent a violent tornado (with showers of stone);
Some were caught by a (mighty) blast; some We
caused the earth to swallow up; and some We drowned (in the waters);
It was not Allah, Who injured (for oppressed)
them; they injured (and oppressed) their own souls”.
(Al Ankabut: 40).
Bandung, 24 Muharram 1428 H.
Spiritual Profit of Tahajjud.
“And pray Tahajjud in the small watches of the
morning,
(It would be) an additional prayer (or spiritual
profit) for thee,
Soon will thy Lord raise thee to a Station of
Praise and Glory.
Say: “O my Lord! Let me entry be by the Gate of
Truth and Honour, and likewise my exit by the Gate of Truth and Honour;
And grant me from Thy Presence an authority to
aid (me)”.
(Bani Israil: 79 – 80)
Any Moslem has to establish regular prayers at
the sun’s decline till the darkness of the night,
And the morning prayer and reading: for the
prayer, and reading in the morning carry their testimony.
Truth has now arrived, and Falsehood by its
nature is bound to perish.
Allah send down stage by stage in the Qur’an that
which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe,
To the unjust it causes nothing but loss after
loss; On the Day of Judgment Allah will gather them together, prone on their faces,
blind, dumb, and deaf; their abode will be Hell;
Every time it shows abatement, and Allah will
increase for them
the fierceness of the Fire.
Bandung, 26 Muharram 1428
