SADA-E-JARS, July 2007.

You must have heard from your elders and have experienced that a drop of water doesn’t
have any significance not do it have any weight, it’s hit is not even worth mentioning,
but if the drop keeps dropping constantly on a place then it makes a hole in a stone and
the hole keeps getting bigger and in some places becomes big enough that a man can pass
through it.

JUTE is a type of grass. The fibers of jute are very weak that they are easily broken with
little pressure, but when this jute is joined together as to unite the fibers, then it makes a
rope which is used to tie huge ships and the biggest ocean waves are not able to harm the
ship.

Let’s think more deeply on the point!

When the cotton-cleaner thrashes the cotton, the cotton turns into such thin fiber that if
you blow it with some force the cotton’s flock flies here and there, but when you join this
cotton in the form of thread then the unity of these threads makes a strong cloth which is
used to make sheets. It is used to make sacks that stores wheat and rice.

Now Please Concentrate!!!

There’s a tree in front of you …until it grows it’s trunk you can break it with fingers,
but when the tree’s elements and the internal system is unified, even 20 men cannot pull
the tree out, why did the tree become strong? …. Because the tree accepted it’s system,
unified it and distributed it into toots, stem & branches.

The life of Holy Prophet (SAW) is in front of every Muslim. HE (SAW) preached
Tauheed (Islamic Monotheism)… preached the oneness of Allah…HE (SAW) announced
the Uniqueness & Providence of Allah. Allah and His Messenger (SAW) disliked
hypocrisy, they stopped us from enmity, ordered us to live on the platform of Tauheed
(Islamic Monotheism).

In the footsteps of the Holy Prophet Muhammad-e-Mustafa (SAW) we invite everyone

towards unity and condemn enmity. We request our nation to adopt the manner of
thought of the Messengers of Allah (AS) and to firmly grip the rope of Allah. We want to
remind that with this strong rope biggest rebellious forces and biggest Satanism can be
tied-up and destructed.

We consider the whole world a caravan, the meaning of caravan is that it has come from
somewhere and it has to reach somewhere, let’s concentrate…. The people who are going
with the caravan, their needs are also going with them. e.g. they’ll be hungry they will
need clothes, people in the caravan will need to wear shoes, when they’ll rest at some
place they will need to have a living setup, a house for living, other accessories, tents &
camps will be needed. In the caravan there are weak people, strong people, old ones,
educated and less-educated as well. The caravan has shoemaker, tailor, carpenter etc…. it
means every person is the need of the caravan…. The caravan has the leader, the assistant
leader and some people are bound to serve, also some people are bound to take service of
others.

We have to think if one link is taken out of the caravan… will the caravan keep moving?
.... NO, not at all, the work will stop, the stable continuity of the system will break down,
identity of the caravan will diminish and it will not remain a caravan anymore and it will
be called a dispersed group.

My Friends!

Our mission is that of the Holy Prophet (SAW). The ‘way of thought’ that the Holy
Prophet (SAW) has granted us is… wish for your brothers/sisters what you wish for
yourself, do not wish anything for your brother/sister that you don’t like for yourself.

The men and women running the mission of the Holy Prophet (SAW) are responsible to
negate themselves (their desires upon other people’s desires) and affirm others.
Affirmation of others means that we prefer others upon ourselves. We sacrifice ourselves,
instead of pointing out other people’s mistakes we should look to our own faults. Along
with people’s reforms we should concentrate on rectifying our own faults too.

One way of reform is to scold and point fingers to others faults, to find other’s faults and
pin-point them again and again… The other way is to reform your own self in such a way
that other people’s faults and defects are rectified from their personality without
becoming an embarrassment for them. With such training a person changes from the
inside….. It is the essence of human nature that he hides his faults and admonishes
others….. Admonition is also necessary when there’s no other way of reforms except
admonition and the whole community or the society is at stake. Until the limits are not
crossed the way of reforms is to point out faults in a pleasant & effective manner, along
the way it’s necessary to check that the faults we are admonishing… is it found in
ourselves.

Actually every person is busy in finding faults in others and never thinks he has defects in
himself as well. The way of thought of The Holy Prophet (SAW), all the messengers of
Allah (AS) is the way of thinking of Allah… Allah is the One who covers faults (Sattar-
ul-uyub)… He hides sins… Allah is the most forgiving of sins…. He forgives people’s
faults defects and sins….. If a person working for the spiritual cause doesn’t have
emotions of forgiving others, He might be deviating from following Allah’s characteristic
‘Most Forgiving of Sins’ (Ghaffar-uz-Zunub)?

Allah is One…Allah is the creator…. He is Unique… He created you and everyone else
with Love…. He created everyone, but this is an observation that the creation(we) keep
complaining to Allah.

Swear to Allah!
Please ask yourself… has Allah ever blocked water? … Blocked Air? The machinery
inside us consisting of heart and lungs is ever been shut down? We make mistakes day
and night… Has Allah ordered Sun to stop giving sunshine? Has HE stopped the moon
from shining? Has HE ordered the rain to stop?

Allah forgives people, loves people, provides every type of resource to people for
FREE… and protects people, not only protects us but HE has created a program so the
system of understanding amongst people keeps working in a smooth manner and the
people keep listening to the words of Allah through the system of teaching and
understanding. The requirement of this relation and connection is when we concentrate
towards Allah, our mind should be empty! and there’s no other thought or imagination in
our mind except Allah.

But the situation here is! When we perform worldly tasks, all of a sudden we become
attentive and concentration is back, but when the matter is of Allah (e.g. Salaat/Namaz)
all of the concentration flies away.

Why don’t thoughts confuse us when we are doing business? Why we do not become
mentally dispersed on our workplace? Why don’t various thoughts attack us on our job?
Because we know “if we will work with an absent mind we will be fired from the job”

Remember!

The spiritual person should have acquired the status of Ehsan ( to feel that you are
watching Allah or at least Allah is watching you according to Hadith). If the traveler of
the spiritual path hasn’t acquired the status of Ehsan, He/She should understand that their
spiritual thought is not yet matured.
