My dear brother, my esteemed leader,
Mr Imran Khan,
we respect you wholeheartedly and we shall support you
but we would like you to include Sufism in your talks,
because without Sufism
even Medina is no longer Medina and you want to adopt the Constitution of Medina [in Pakistan]?
Ever since the people of Medina discarded Sufism,
Medina is not the Medina that it was when it belonged to the Prophet (s).
If you too just want to make another State of Medina
devoid of its attachment to the One of Medina,
then it’s utterly useless.
How Can Pakistan Adopt the Constitution of Medina?
Our ousted Prime Minister, Imran Khan,
often refers to the 'State of Medina’ and the policy of ‘Amr Bil Maroof, Wa Nahi Anil Munkar' (doing good, forbidding evil)’ in his speeches.
I respect Imran Khan
may God grant him a long life
and bestow him with success in politics.
We are with him.
But I would like to explain something to him.
[You talk about] ‘Amr Bil Maroof’
you want people to encourage righteousness and call people towards goodness [but],
my brother, Imran Khan Niazi,
the one whose lower self is a Commanding Self that compels one to do wrong,
how can such a person act upon ‘Amr Bil Maroof’?
You listen to the sermons of Tariq Jameel and Tahir ul Qadri
and they only know how to read the Qur’an and how to have others read it, they don’t know how to explain it.
They will read the verses about the Commanding Self,
they will recite the verses about the Remorseful Self
but how the lower self transforms from the former to the latter, they don’t have the method for it.
Baba Farid had the method
the one whose shrine is frequented by your other half, Bushra Bibi.
[This method] was in the possession of Baba Farid.
He possessed this knowledge. Spiritual knowledge.
For this, one is required to find an Accomplished Spiritual Guide.
The Accomplished Spiritual Guide renders a diet of divine energy to the lower self through his spiritual attention.
Just like how you feed the birds,
similarly, the spiritual guide feeds the lower self the diet of divine energy.
The appearance of the Commanding Self gradually transforms due to [the generation of] divine light and it transforms into Nafs e Lawamma (Remorseful Self).
As soon as the lower self transforms from Ammarah to Lawamma,
its habits and nature are also transformed.
As long as the lower self is Ammarah, it will compel you to do wrong
and after purification, when it reaches the stage of Lawamma,
now your lower self will criticise you.
Let's do a social experiment.
Currently, the entire PTI, Imran Khan's cabinet and Imran Khan himself,
humiliate Nawaz Sharif and Shehbaz Sharif [by saying], 'the boot-polishers,
cherry blossom, crooks, traitors'
they're saying all sorts, which is true as well.
But ponder, are they affected?
Why not?
Because they have a Commanding Self.
Since they have a Commanding Self, it shall only compel them to do wrong.
Do not think that they shall have some newfound empathy for human beings.
For example, Rana Sanaullah - he is a thief, a murderer, a plunderer.
He is a terrorist. He is a drug dealer.
When such people become the Interior Ministers of the country,
what do you expect them to do with the country’s police and public?
For them, [all we can say is], 'from God we come and to him we return'.
So such a person who is a murderer, a drug dealer, a crook himself,
how could he incline people towards righteousness?
My dear brother, my esteemed leader, Mr Imran Khan,
May God grant you a long life,
and May God grant you success in your endeavours,m
we respect you wholeheartedly and we shall support you
but we would like you to include Sufism in your talks,
because without Sufism even Medina is no longer Medina and you want to adopt the Constitution of Medina [in Pakistan]?
Ever since the people of Medina discarded Sufism,
Medina is not the Medina that it was when it belonged to the Prophet (s).
If you too just want to make another State of Medina
devoid of its attachment to the One of Medina,
then it’s utterly useless.
When you talk about 'Amr Bil Maroof, Wa Nahi Anil Munkar',
you should also pay attention to the spiritual mechanism behind this.
You know about the fluctuation in the value of dollars and rupees.
You know about it because you learn about it.
You have not studied spirituality though.
Tariq Jameel cannot teach you spirituality either since he knows nothing about it himself.
You talk about 'Amr Bil Maroof, Nahi Anil Munkar'
but this has to do with spirituality.
'Amr Bil Maroof’ - tell me, how will you encourage righteousness?
The one who compels you to do wrong is within you so how will you engage in righteous deeds?
The one who has a Commanding Self is commanded to bad,
and you lecture such a person to do righteous acts;[it’ll be only ineffective].
They would say, ‘I have a satan within me that commands me to do wrong but Khan Sab wants me to be righteous’.
‘I tell people to be righteous but the voice within me commands me to do wrong, and I comply’.
[Hence] this slogan of ‘Amr Bil Maroof’ is hollow, a waste.
There have been so many movements in Pakistan such as Nizam e Mustafa,
and then Tahir ul Qadri’s slogans of the Mohammadan Revolution
but what have any of them achieved?
Because they just raised slogans about the Prophet’s love, God’s love and the oneness of God having read the Qur’an
but that too was just verbal recitation of the Qur’an, wasn’t it?
When did you focus on [what the Qur'an states], ‘One who has purified his lower self shall be successful’?
This is also in the Qur’an, is it not?
Ponder this. Just as you focused on the verse:
‘We worship you alone and seek aid from you alone’. [And you say] ‘We shall not concede to any cherry-blossoms and neutrals’.
Don’t you say this?
Now, adhere to this verse
as you have adhered to ‘iyyaka na’badoo wa iyyaka nasta’een’.
Adhere to this verse now:
'Successful are those that have purified their lower selves'.
You've memorised one ayah, fair enough,
but now progress to the others.
You can’t be repeating yourself like a broken record. God heard it, now move on.
What I'm saying is important and very vital.
When you say to someone, 'Be righteous and forbid evil'
it's a very sensitive point, [because] the Qur'an says, 'The Commanding Self compels you to do wrong'.
And, Khan Sab, listen carefully. If you do not understand what I am saying,
then I request Khan Sab to send this video link to your other half, Bushra Bibi,
she would understand what I am saying because she is aware of spirituality.
If you don’t have the time, send this to your wife and have her listen to this video, she'll explain to you the gist of what I am saying.
Now, who is successful in an election? Those who have the most votes.
Everyone understand that, right?
Who is successful in an election? The one with the most votes.
If the Qur’an stated:
one who has the most votes will be successful. You would understand it right away.
So why do you not understand that in Islam,
successful are those that have purified their lower selves?
How will you be successful without purifying the lower self?
Without the majority of votes, how will you be successful in the election?
So, without purifying your lower selves, how will you be successful in the religion?
Your entire religiosity shall be futile.
If the clergy had purified their lower selves, would they be involved in child abuse in the mosques?
Obviously, it means their lower selves are impure.
And if their lower selves are impure then how can they be successful in the religion?
those who are not successful in the religion themselves,
how can you become successful in the religion by following them?
‘Qad aflaha man tazzaka’
This is the path to success, the path of purfication of the lower self.
The path of success in the religion.
No one, not the Sunnis, not the Shias, the Wahhabis, nor the Salafis or Touheedis adopted this path.
And because of this, they are divided into sects.
And those who did purify their lower selves, they were successful!
Those who purified their lower selves became the likes of Baba Farid;
Abdullah Shah became 'Bulleh Shah'.
He said, 'I was not impure originally, it was the lower self that made me impure'.
​​It was the soul that descended and it was pure.
The spiritual heart, too, was untarnished.
It is the lower self that made us impure when it entered our bodies.
So, the command of 'being righteous'
is for those who have purified their lower selves
and are now obedient to God.
When your lower self and spiritual heart are purified,
your lower self will no longer command you to do wrong
and they are commanded by their heart, which instructs them to do righteous acts.
Those who are commanded by their hearts to be righteous
fulfil the command of the Prophet (s) that of doing and implementing righteous acts.
But you are asking everyone to act righteously?
At least learn the spiritual sciences of the Prophet (s) before you make another State of Medina.
And listen well,
when [those with] an impure lower self raised the slogans of 'Amr bill maroof',
it was due to the lack of this spiritual knowledge that gave birth to individuals like Maulana Fazlur Rehman Diesel.
Maulana Diesel recites the very same Qur’an as Baba Farid.
So why is it that Baba Farid was a divine advocate
but Fazlur Rehman became ‘Maulana Diesel’?
Because the lower self of the latter is a scoundrel;
it commands to do wrong.
When the lower self is a Commanding Self,
it compels you to do wrong
and when such a person inclines people towards righteousness,
one day they are caught red-handed
and you say, 'they stop us, but are involved in such heinous crimes themselves'.
Then you called them out to have double-standards.
But where did the problem start?
It started from the moment you instated those to command righteousness that were being commanded to do bad by their own lower selves.
They had not purified their lower selves,
and commanded others to be righteous at the pulpit [of a mosque].
This is why the religion and the entire country was destroyed.
