SUMMARY The Holy Qur’an elucidates ways to every aspect of human life and interaction, Nur given in this perfect Book will continue to illuminate for ever The objective of a believer is to achieve the purpose of his creation i.e. to acquire Nur of Allah, which is conditional on belief and good deeds Huzur (aba) used the examples of overspending and rituals at weddings such as Mehndi as examples of improper deeds Huzur (aba) urged Ahmadies to stop such practices Huzur (aba) elucidated the concept of Haya or decency in depth with reference to young people and directed Ahmadis to raise the standard of their Haya January 15th, 2010

Scientific and technological progress With the God-given intellect, human beings have made significant scientific and technological advances in the recent years Wealth, power and material progress are deemed desirable by men of each age and era, some regard such progress as the objective of their life This is an extremely erroneous concept. It is rejected by God because such objectives lead to the creation of tyrants and oppressors such as Pharaoh-like individuals January 15th, 2010

And I have not created the Jinn and the men but that they may worship Me. وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْاِنْسَ اِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُوْنِ Chapter 51, Verse 57 The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) wrote that it is a great pity that upon entering adulthood many people leave God and are inclined to worldliness in which some have only a small portion for God, while others have none, and they are wholly taken in by the world. Purpose of creation January 15th, 2010 God sent His Prophets to make people understand the objective of their creation

Purpose of creation --This day have I perfected your religion for you and completed My favour upon you and have chosen for you Islam as religion-- اَلْيَوْمَ اَكْمَلْتُ لَـكُمْ دِيْنَكُمْ وَاَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِىْ وَرَضِيْتُ لَكُمُ الْاِسْلَامَ دِيْنًا‌ Chapter 5, Verse 4 When mankind attained a standard of spiritual development and temporal development, God sent the perfect man, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) with the final Shariah through the Holy Qur’an January 15th, 2010

The Holy Qur’an elucidates ways to Attain nearness to Allah Achieve higher standards of worship Fulfil social commitments Treat one’s enemy Honour rights of underprivileged Fulfil rights of women To benefit from future inventions The purpose of creation is explained in the Holy Qur’an January 15th, 2010

This perfect Book will continue to illuminate till the Day of Judgement The perception and insight of the perfect man, the Prophet (pbuh) understood what was explained in the Holy Qur’an He was endowed by God with the perfect light (nur) and in turn, his Companions had a share of this light in accordance with their capacities. The Companions went on to spread this light in the world The Purpose of creation January 15th, 2010

In order to partake of the light of God, in addition to belief, attention needs to be drawn to good works and to protect oneself against sin. A believer’s sight is not limited to the material benefit of worldly inventions. Having understood the objective of his creation, a believer tries to benefit from the true light (nur) that the Holy Prophet (pbuh) has brought. Purpose of creation January 15th, 2010

A Messenger, who recites unto you the clear Signs of Allah, that he may bring those who believe and do good deeds out of every kind of darkness into light. And whoso believes in Allah and does good deeds — He will make him enter Gardens, through which rivers flow, to abide therein for ever. Allah has indeed made excellent provision for him. رَّسُوْلاً يَّتْلُوْا عَلَيْكُمْ اٰيٰتِ اللّٰهِ مُبَيِّنٰتٍ لِّيُخْرِجَ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَعَمِلُوْا الصّٰلِحٰتِ مِنَ الظُّلُمٰتِ اِلَى النُّوْرِ‌ وَمَنْ يُّؤْمِنْۢ بِاللّٰهِ وَيَعْمَلْ صَالِحًـا يُّدْخِلْهُ جَنّٰتٍ تَجْرِىْ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْاَنْهٰرُ خٰلِدِيْنَ فِيْهَاۤ اَبَدًا‌ قَدْ اَحْسَنَ اللّٰهُ لَه رِزْقًا Chapter 62, Verse 12 Attainment of God’s pleasure is subject to adherence to the blessed model and teachings of the Holy Prophet (pbuh). Purpose of creation January 15th, 2010

God is aware of everything, our actions as well as intentions are in His knowledge. فَاٰمِنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَرَسُوْلِه وَالنُّوْرِ الَّذِىْۤ اَنْزَلْنَا‌ وَاللّٰهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ خَبِيْرٌ Believe, therefore, in Allah and His Messenger, and in the Light which We have sent down. And Allah is Well-Aware of all that you do Chapter 64, Verse 9. January 15th, 2010 Purpose of creation

The benefit of this light is conditional to belief and good works. The Holy Prophet (pbuh) It is God’s favour on us that He sent the Holy Prophet (pbuh) in whose teaching is the permanence of this world and the Hereafter. The Promised Messiah For latter days, God sent the true and ardent devotee of the Holy Prophet (pbuh ), the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) who once again guided the world to light. Responsibilities of an Ahmadi While the glad- tidings of Paradise in following the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) is solace for Ahmadis, it is also a matter to reflect on and to always self-examine. Purpose of creation January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained good works Which works are good and which not good? Huzur (aba) explained, in life there are happy occasions as well as sad occasions. What are our limitations to celebrate happy occasions and what are our limits to commemorate sad occasions? Ahmadis need to reflect that whatever they do is within the limitations. January 15th, 2010

Idle rituals should not be followed at wedding ceremonies and should be brought to an end. Marriage, a happy occasion, is an obligation, and practice of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him). Some customs have become common practice in marriage celebrations that have nothing to do with the teaching of Islam. These are regarded as an essential part of celebration by some. For example, there is the Mehndi (Hina) ceremony. Some Ahmadi households are also practising this. Some people in Pakistan and Rabwah are getting involved in these rituals a little too much. January 15th, 2010

NOTE: Al Islam Team takes full responsibility for any errors or miscommunication in this Synopsis of the Friday Sermon A word of warning! Therefore, Ahmadis in Pakistan should take care that that there is no overspending and this matter should be paid attention to particularly in Rabwah It is the responsibility of Sadr Amoomi (head of all the saadran of Rabwah) to keep in view that there is no unnecessary spending and ostentation at marriages January 15th, 2010

ISLAMIC MARRIAGE This practice has no Islamic basis Mehndi Reception A wedding reception may be held if it can be afforded. Meal can be served at the reception although it is not essential. Wedding Reception The authentic commandment in Islam is that of holding a reception for Walima within one’s means Walima Reception Any good work that is done to please God becomes [a form of] worship. January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained good works This is why Ahmadis should reflect on the favour on them that they are in the Community of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) and only follow the true teaching of Islam. If, influenced by society, one kind of bad rituals are followed, then there is a possibility that the other kind will also set in. Huzur (aba) said it is with the grace of God that Ahmadis are not involved in bad rituals at sad occasions January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained good works By doing so they are not restricting themselves, rather they are safeguarding against the entrapment of Satan. Ahmadis stand for a society to establish pleasure of God and rights of others. Ahmadis pledge to give up following idle rituals and greediness Ahmadis pledge to completely accept the kingdom of the Holy Qur’an Ahmadis pledge to make the Word of God and the word of the Prophet (pbuh) their modus operandi It is required of Ahmadis to honour these pledges. January 15th, 2010

By honouring their pledges, Ahmadis will be trying to burnish their perception and insight preserving their chastity and purity raising the standards of modesty/decency trying to instil patience and contentment inculcate piety and taqwa trying to fulfil the dues of their trusts trying to attain high standards of worship of God by sincerely turning to Him out of His love, so that they may attain the objective of their creation January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained the Hadith Modesty is part of faith With the inventions of TV and the internet even blatant indecency is not considered so anymore. This prevalent indecency has also turned around the standards of modesty in some apparently good Ahmadi household. In the name of progress some matters are adopted which are intolerable for any decent person even if it is [between] husband and wife If Ahmadi families do not clean themselves of such vulgarities, then they have not honoured their pledge and have wasted their belief. January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained the Hadith A Hadith relates that indecency makes the perpetrator unsightly and modesty gives a modest and bashful person inner and outer beauty. Each Ahmadi young person should particularly keep in mind not to be entrapped by the media and its prevalent indecency or they may lose their faith. January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained the Hadith The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him said), ‘Be shy of God as much as is His due.' The Companions present said, 'All praise to Allah, we are shy of Him.' The Prophet said, 'That is not the point. Whoever is shy of Allah should protect his head and the thoughts that enter it, protect his stomach and the food that he puts in it. Whoever is shy of Allah should protect his head and the thoughts that enter it, protect his stomach and the food that he puts in it. He who remembers death and trials abandons the adornments of this world. Whoever fulfils these duties has been shy of Allah as much as is His due.’ All unsavoury thoughts should be shirked off through Istaghfar (asking forgiveness of Allah). One’s earning should be pure and through lawful means January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained good works -- He enjoins on them good and forbids them evil, and makes lawful for them the good things and forbids them the bad, and removes from them their burden and the shackles that were upon them -- يَاْمُرُهُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوْفِ وَيَنْهٰٮهُمْ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَيُحِلُّ لَهُمُ الطَّيِّبٰتِ وَيُحَرِّمُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْخَبٰۤٮِٕثَ وَيَضَعُ عَنْهُمْ اِصْرَهُمْ وَالْاَغْلٰلَ الَّتِىْ كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ‌ Chapter 7, Verse 158 A prayer of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) to seek God. ‘O my Powerful God, O my Beloved Guide, show us those paths through which the truthful and pure find You. Save us from those paths which only lead to lust, malice, rancour or worldly customs and rituals.’ A prayer of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) to seek God. ‘O my Powerful God, O my Beloved Guide, show us those paths through which the truthful and pure find You. Save us from those paths which only lead to lust, malice, rancour or worldly customs and rituals.’ Stressing the need to follow Islamic teachings and rejecting materialistic tendencies, Huzur (aba) cited In order to fulfil our obligation to take the message of Islam to the world we need to cast off the shackles of this world. January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) explained this prayer was actually to teach us how to use our faculties according to the teachings of God. Huzur (aba) explained good works We are the followers of that Prophet (pbuh) who taught what was permissible and what was forbidden and thus removed the shackles of erroneous concepts. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) who was nur-personified would pray, ‘O Allah, place nur in my heart and various parts of my body’. January 15th, 2010

Huzur (aba) prayed...strengthen our faith...practise the Word of God and His Prophet (pbuh)...avoid bad customs May we always partake of God’s Nur May Allah enable us to May any wretchedness of ours never deprive us of this Nur. Aameen January 15th, 2010
