Now, which spiritual order do we follow?
The Chishti Order obtains spiritual benevolence from the Chest of Maula Ali (as).
The Qadri Order obtains spiritual benevolence from the Chest of Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (ra).
What is the Spiritual Order of ALRA TV?
The Chishti Order obtains spiritual benevolence from the Chest of Maula Ali (as).
The Qadri Order obtains spiritual benevolence from the Chest of Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (ra).
And then,
Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (ra) is spiritually linked to the Chest of Prophet Muhammad (s).
Maula Ali (as) is also spiritually linked to the Chest of Prophet Muhammad (s).
Therefore, everything emerged from there,
the Chest of Prophet Muhammad (s).
The chain connects back to Prophet Muhammad (s) in the end.
Now, the spiritual benevolence rendered by His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi
is neither the Chishti Order
nor the Qadri Order
nor is it spiritually linked to the Chest of Muhammad (s).
If the Order of Imam Mehdi (as) was also spiritually linked to the Chest of Muhammad (s),
then Mitesh (a Hindu) and Jagga (a Sikh) would not have attained Activation of the Heart.
They would have been required to recite the Kalima [of Islam].
Although they recite [the Kalima] now, it is not because we have asked them to, it is of their own volition. And they may do so.
I have told you this one thing now,
that if this spiritual benevolence
were emerging from the Chest of Mustafa (s)
then Mitesh and Jagga would not have been Zakir e Qalbi.
So, where does this benevolence originate from?
This benevolence originates from The Chest of Sayedna Gohar Shahi!
There shall be two things that shall be of distinction in this [Order].
Two distinctions.
Ask me what those are.
Firstly, the sinners.
Secondly, no religious restrictions.
The sinners; the glammed-up people,
the thieves and looters,
those that know nothing of religion nor prayer. They know nothing whatsoever.
Absolutely jam-packed with sins.
Riddled with sin from head to toe.
No spiritual order can render benevolence to such people.
All spiritual orders are linked with religion,
[however], neither the Chishti [Order] can render benevolence to thieves and looters,
nor the Qadri Order.
How can they?
If you are involved in all sorts of sins, [and] you don’t even intend to quit sinning
neither have you stopped sinning nor do you intend to
then how do you expect to obtain benevolence?
You would not survive in the Chishti Order
because, in these [Orders], if someone has committed sins in the past, that's fine, but when they are initiated they must rid themselves of sins.
So, you would not survive.
Now, in this order, one distinction is that they shall be sinners,
the other that there are no limitations of religion.
Why is there no religious restriction?
Look, if I have a shop, I run my own business
and when I purchase goods from a wholesaler,
they charge me VAT.
So now, when I sell the goods, I will also apply a VAT charge.
If I don’t apply the VAT charge, I will lose profit.
If I’ve been charged VAT, I will charge [my customers] with VAT, too.
Similarly, those that were rendered benevolence in the spiritual orders [of the past],
it was rendered through the religion
this type of benevolence is that of the order of prophethood and messengerhood.
It is a series of the benevolence of prophethood that is transmitted through the hearts
due to which you must abide by the principles and the Motto of Faith of that religion.
If you do not abide by the Motto of Faith of that religion, you shall not be rendered benevolence.
However, all those that were rendered benevolence by Imam Mehdi Sayedna Gohar Shahi were unique in their sins.
They were unique in their sins
champions of their sins
and they were still rendered benevolence.
HDE Gohar Shahi is present in Kotri,
there is a mass gathering. They are all sitting in the court of the Lord.
The topic of Imam Mehdi is initiated.
[They asked the Lord], ‘When shall Imam Mehdi arrive?’
‘What shall be the signs of Imam Mehdi?’ Noor Muhammad Sarhandi asked this question.
HDE replied, ‘Forget about the signs of Imam Mehdi,
you should be concerned about whether or not you will be amongst the supporters of Imam Mehdi’.
He exclaimed, ‘Master, of course, we shall support Imam Mehdi!’
HDE replied, ‘Oh no, you’re a clergy-type and all the clergymen shall flee’.
Then, the Lord declares,
‘Those that say that Gohar Shahi rendered enlightenment of the heart to those that are glammed-up; the sinful folk…
[they ask] why did Gohar Shahi do this!’
Then HDE Gohar Shahi said,
'I thought,
yes indeed, such people that are laden with sin, their hearts should not be enlightened as per the spiritual and religious laws.
However, then came an ethereal voice from the higher realms, and it said, ‘’This concession is for Imam Mehdi (as) alone!'’’
Now, I would like you to hear this directly from the court of HDE Gohar Shahi so that your heart finds tranquillity
because when the Lord speaks,
one is incapable of containing one’s self.
There’s this unique kind of [pleasant] bustling in the bosom.
You feel like surrendering your life at the feet of the Lord.
His Divine Eminence Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi addressing a gathering in Kotri Sharif
When you go before Mehdi (as),
[they] are a sphere of [divine] light, and you [have] a spark of [divine] light, the spark shall assume the sphere of [divine] light its master.
Now tell me, is the namazi better or is such a thief better [that has a spark of divine light]?
[Then] such a thief is better, isn’t it?
[At least] he stood by the truth in the end,
[whereas, the religious person] did everything [by the book] yet lost everything [in the end].
Now, since [Imam Mehdi] has arrived, those that shall support them are required.
We experimented [and found] that those that shall support them shall be the thieves and crooks, not the [religious] ones.
First of all, the thieves and crooks are brave,
whereas [the religious] are not.
So, if the thieves and crooks support Imam Mehdi, this will be a matter of great fortune for them,
because when they die, they shall be [raised] as martyrs.
Right now, the majority of the world is [of the opinion] that Imam Mehdi has arrived.
We too have calculated in the light of our knowledge and have come to the conclusion that Imam Mehdi has indeed arrived,
but let’s see where they are and when they make themselves apparent [to the world].
Then, the police shall be looking for them,
because whenever someone makes a claim of Mehdihood…
There's already been mischief in the name of ‘Imam Mehdi’ before,
so now whenever someone claims to be Imam Mehdi, the police begin to chase them,
[assuming] that such a person shall give rise to a new mischief.
[They shall ask], ‘show us a miracle that we have not seen before’.
If [Imam Mehdi] is secure from the [police], then your Islamic countries shall chase him.
[Someone asks], ‘Why would they chase him, Lord?’.
[HDE Gohar Shahi reply], ‘They have been told by astrologers that [Imam Mehdi] shall seize their kingdom from them.
[So they say], wherever you find Imam Mehdi, execute him,
so that he doesn’t seize our kingdom.
So, [Imam Mehdi] shall have to go through these stages.
[Someone asks], ‘wouldn’t this trouble Imam Mehdi?’,
[HDE Gohar Shahi reply], ‘Of course, however, God shall aid him too. The one who has made him [Mehdi], he knows how to aid him too’.
[Someone asks], ‘how shall the public initially recognise him?’
‘Who [initially] recognised the Prophet (s), they recognised him towards the latter stages.
If they had recognised the Prophet (s) earlier, why would the Prophet (s) need to herd sheep?
So, they weren’t [initially] recognised.
Gradually, people said that [the Prophet (s)] is truthful and righteous,
however, no one called them a prophet, did they?
Eventually, when propethood was established, that is when everyone affirmed.
So, the same shall occur with Imam Mehdi.
[Someone asks], ‘Lord, will all other [spiritual] orders cease to exist upon the advent of Imam Mehdi?’
[HDE Gohar Shahi reply], ‘all [spiritual] orders shall infuse [within the order of Mehdi],
in fact, all religions shall also infuse [with the order of Mehdi],
all religions,
the Christians, the Hindus, the Sikhs, all of them shall infuse within [it].
The teachings [of Imam Mehdi] will be such that people of all religions shall happily affirm it.
Amongst the Muslims alone, the Barelvis do not believe in the other Sunnis, the others do not believe them.
There are 72 sects within the Muslims.
When the Sunnis cannot deal with one another, how will they deal with the likes of the Sikhs?
[Whereas], when it comes to Imam Mehdi, they shall be for the entire universe.
The Christians await him, the Jews await him, even the Sikhs await a Revolutionary Leader.
The western prophecies say that [the Mehdi] shall be from amongst the Muslims.
The rest claim that he shall be from amongst their respective [religions], however, the westerns said that he shall be from amongst the Muslims.
All religions are saying that Imam Mehdi has come,
the knowledge of the astrologers say the same
as well the knowledge of Jafar, all knowledge point towards [the fact] that imam Mehdi has arrived.
God shall give exceptional power to [the Mehdi], otherwise who shall believe in him?
People with great beards and great build have made claims of Mehdihood, such as a few Shaikhs that came here.
If you [try to recognise him], you’ll look at his rosary and his beard, that’s all you’ll look for, right?
However, [God shall] show such wonders of his, that everyone shall have to believe that he indeed is Imam Mehdi.
Otherwise, no one will believe in him.
Even if God, himself, descends unto Earth, nobody shall believe in him, so what about Imam Mehdi?
It’s the truth, if God descends here, you won’t believe in him,
[you’ll say], ‘what proof is there that you are Allah?’
You’ll ask for evidence.
Similarly, Imam Mehdi also requires evidence, [and] his evidence will be a wonder that no one else has [had].
It is [for this very reason] that this group of people are being prepared.
[Someone asks], ‘Lord, what shall be the function of this group?’
[HDE Gohar Shahi reply], ‘The function? There shall only be conflict. Majority of [it] with the clergymen.
You too are a clergyman, you’ll find this offensive’.
We asked,
`These boys sat before you,
that say that their hearts are awakened,
you won’t believe it…
[they say] you take their services, they are engaged in playing cricket, right?
They are all in the cinemas.
or watching [movies] on a VCR,
then say that their hearts are awakened.
You won’t believe it, will you?
So, then we asked, ‘indeed, why [is that the case]?’
It was in regards to this that Samandri Baba opposed us,
he said, ‘[the females] are all glossed up and they claim that their hearts are awakened’.
So, then when saints consecutively raised this issue, we also thought,
‘it’s true, their hearts shouldn’t really be activated.
It would make sense if they were pious and were fulfilling all the religious obligations, and then the [awakening] of the heart would’ve been the last stage,
whereas they don’t even offer their namaz, and claim they have awoken their hearts’.
[Someone says], ‘yes, they say that Gohar Shahi shouldn’t render Zikr e Qalb to kids, they should render it to people with lengthy beards’.
We were then intrigued into the reasoning behind this,
and [were told] that this concession is for Imam Mehdi, alone.
[Now], those that shall support Imam Mehdi are required.
Those whom you assume to be sages with lengthy beards - they won’t support Imam Mehdi.
How so?
No matter how great a worshipper one is,
even if he is a great scholar,
if the heart is empty, Satan will enter it.
When these clergymen fight, it’s the satan that makes them fight.
The Qur’an is the same, and the Kalima is the same,
then why do they fight?
[It’s] because the satan makes them fight.
When they hear that the Anti-Christ has come...
because they think they’re very intelligent,
they’ll say that we’ll go and analyse him.
They’ll be told not to go, because one who goes, joins him.
They’ll say, ‘no, we will be unaffected by him’.
Then when they go before the Anti-Christ,
he is a big satan,
and [the clergy] have a small satan in their heart.
The [small] satan shall come under [the greater satan’s] allegiance.
So, tell us now, what use were your prayers?
They all became futile, right?
Now these people that do not pray,
they watch [movies] on VCR,
however they commemorate the name of God…
the commemoration will bring some divine light in them.
Even if they generate a small spark of [divine] light,
which they shall indeed.
Fair enough, their actions have gone to waste,
but they have managed some [divine] light in their hearts.
Now, when such people go before Imam Mehdi,
he is a sphere of [divine] light and these people have a spark of [divine] light,
so they shall [automatically] accept him as their master.
So [it’s evident] that such people are better than those who prayed.
This is the reason that thieves and crooks are being made Zakir e Qalbi,
because they are People of the Heart, they can stand in conflict.
The clergymen cannot stand against conflict.
This is the reason 50,000 and according to one hadith, 70,000
shall pledge allegiance at the hands of the Anti-Christ.
This is the reason.
[Someone asks], ‘Due to them not having an [awakened] heart?’
[HDE Gohar Shahi replies], ‘Yes, because of not having an [awakened] heart’.
Those that shall have awoken their hearts shall join the Mehdi,
and those that shall not have [awoken] their hearts will be on the opposing side.
Now, you've heard from the graceful lips of HDE Gohar Shahi yourselves
how HDE Gohar Shahi distributed the unique wealth of Zikr e Qalb to people.
And then HDE Gohar Shahi said that the thieves and crooks and the sinners are brave people,
and this is why they are being made Zakir e Qalbi.
Because, when the news of Imam Mehdi finds fame in this world,
then many shall stand to oppose and conspire to harm this mission, they will fight [us],
so if the people of Imam Mehdi (as) are not brave, they would all flee.
So, the sinners are being made Zakir e Qalbi, because they are brave, they shall take a stand [for the truth].
And, this has been commonly noted in Pakistan,
that all the religious people, the clergy-type, were cowards.
And HDE Gohar Shahi said,
'The people of Anjuman fear to face [the opposition]'
They cannot face [the opposition]. They are fearful.
So, the first thing we find is that the reason behind the benevolence upon the sinners is
that when comes the time to stand for and support Imam Mehdi,
obviously, some shall stand with Imam Mehdi and some shall oppose.
So those who oppose Imam Mehdi shall fight the followers [of Imam Mehdi].
If the followers of Imam Mehdi were these religious folks that keep long beards,
they’d say, ‘Sufis are peaceful, they don't fight’,
and they shall flee.
This is why the courageous people are inducted [into the Mehdian Order].
This is why brave people are required, so that they can defend [this mission].
So, now let's move on.
What is the difference between our Order [the Mehdian Order], and all other spiritual orders?
