When Haji Sahib was 16 years of age, he studied Sarf, Nahw, Farsi and one quarter of Mishkaat Shareef by Maulana Mamlook Ali Sahib (Rahmatullahi Alayhi) of Delhi. Haji Imdadullah Muhajir Makki didn’t study Bukhari and the other books of Sihah Sitta, but Allah Ta’ala blessed Haji Imdadullah Muhajir Makki (Rahmatullahi Alayhi) with Ilm Ladunni. One is that knowledge that a person acquires. He studies different subjects and books. Another form of knowledge is from Allah Ta’ala without studying.
When Haji Imdadullah Muhajir Makki (Rahmatullahi Alayhi) would talk to the Ulama, he would resolve such intricate issues with the insight that Allah Ta’ala had given him. However, he would not use the Istilaahi language (academic terminologies). This is Ilm La Dunni.
this great personality was the shaykh of hazrat molana ashraf ali thanvi saheb r.a.
allah taalah throughout history tests the ummah this is nothing new
in each time there is always someone who rises to the occasion,rather pulled and trained directly by allah taala to sort things out
no one can choose or should choose to be that individual,love of power is a great spiritual disease
he must be one who absolutely dislikes power and leadership even turning down leadership requests but then reluctantly accepting after repeated requests as we read in haayatus sahabah on the death of each khalifa for the next 1
he must be a man of taqwa and equipped with the relevant resources in terms of strategy and with a professional competent team to aid him.
even prophets had aides and teams.it is said the top 10 sahabah were all masters in their fields
even musa a.s. asked allah taala for the help of haroon a.s.
the mahdi and messiah complex is to be avoided,this is when shaytaan makes people think that they are the chosen one.the worst examples being terrorists
all of us can do something good in our own little ways with full sincerity in these times .do not wait for someone else
do what you can do today
(By Hazrat Moulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi Rahmatullahi Alaih)
Presently the climate we are living through dictates that every Muslim takes it as binding upon himself to deliver the Ahkaam of Allah. Every Muslim should be preoccupied with this thought, like it was the Way of our Aslaaf (Predecessors in Islam) with Ulama, Soofiya, the influential, the prominent, the rich, the poor, the educated, the non-educated – all having being preoccupied with delivering to others whatever they knew of the Ahkaam of Islam.
The Ulama used to give lectures and admonish; the Soofiya, with their illuminated hearts and souls and through their wholesome talks, would turn the attention of the servants of Allah to Allah; traders would not be forgetful of this duty in their dealings and meetings.
The effect of this attention on a general scale was that thousands, nay millions of servants of Allah were guided to the Truth. Had this task been placed only on the shoulders of the Ulama, the Light of the Truth would not have reached those places where an Aalim or Faatih (conqueror) never set foot.
Therefore, it is necessary for all Muslims in general, and those who are connected to me in particular, to become preoccupied with this task from today. Whoever has any knowledge of Islam should spread it to others, be active in executing this Islamic Duty, and anticipate the Help of Allah from the Unseen. Definitely Allah Ta’ala helps those who serve His Deen.
“If you help Allah, He will help you and plant your feet firmly.”
(Surah Muhammad, 7)
essentially without the help of allah taala,removing allah taalas anger and perfecting our worship and relationship with allah taala we cannot expect our wordly situation to change.no organisations,no wealth, no speech,no so called cleverness and strategy will be effective if adherence to quran and sunnah is not met
.when salah is left en masse,when purdah and haya is not observed.
when haram is accepted and fraud and lies are commonplace we will be trying to fill buckets with holes in them.
we have to fill the gaps and holes first,patch up our sorry communities and personal lives first whilst making effort in the wider community.unfortunately even after bosnia can we honestly say the muslim community has rushed to the sunnah way of life,have the weddings become simplified,our homes and lifestyles rid of haram?
do we still anger allah taala or is allah taalas help with us?
ilme ludduni and firaasat are suppressed by those who want to hold on to their seats of power
in this day and age in these conditions and trials we need more than book knowledge
hazrat imam ghazalli stated when one undergoes great trials he is blessed by ilme ludduni and firasat
unfortunately those in power in our communities do not like individuals with such knowledge and hazrat imam ghazallis worst critics were those very people at that time
AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
