The belief of the majority is incorrect
because they have been told they shall find God by offering salah,
by fasting.
These acts are worship, they do not lead you to the path of God.
Is there any scholar that can prove God can be found by offering salah?
Can Faith Be Obtained?
Faith is God-given, it cannot be obtained.
Faith is also a gift (of God).
Have you ever heard that God charges you before granting faith?
Has any divinely ordained Spiritual Master ever charged for faith?
So, it’s a gift then, isn’t it?
What is the fault of human beings?
Their fault is that they have not made attempts to obtain God.
Had they made attempts to obtain God,
God would have acquainted them with a personality who would gift them faith.
The belief of the majority is incorrect because they have been told they shall find God by offering salah, by fasting.
These are acts of worship, they do not lead you to the path of God.
Is there any scholar that can prove God can be found by offering salah?
God is not found through worship.
If faith had to do with acts of worship...
Don’t all the sects within Islam offer salah and fast? So why then are they divided into sects?
The Shias, Sunnis, Deobandis, Barelvis, Wahhabis, etc. all offer salah and recite the Qur’an, etc.
They have their differences due to minor disagreements;
some don’t agree on the glorification of Muhammad (s), others on the glorification of Ali (as).
However, they all read the same Qur’an and offer salah.
Nothing they are practising is Sirat al Mustaqeem.
Had any of these acts of worship been Sirat al Mustaqeem, then they would not have been divided into sects.
What do they practise? They perform Hajj, they offer salah, they observe fasting, they offer alms, they read the Qur’an and ahadith,
they recite devotional hymns and send benedictions upon the Prophet (s),
despite all of these acts, they are either Sunni, Shia, Wahhabi, Ahle Hadith, Deobandi or Barelvi.
One thing was made prominent due to the division of sects.
And what is that?
That they are not connected to Habl Allah (the divine cord).
Because had they been connected to Habl Allah, they would not be divided into sects.
If you are a Sunni, you are not connected to Habl Allah.
If you say you are connected to Habl Allah then why are you subjected to sectarianism?
If you are a Barelvi, you are not connected to Habl Allah.
You have not attained Sirat al Mustaqeem.
The point is that everything our Muslim brethren - Shias, Sunnis, Wahhabis, Barelvis, Deobandis - are involved in,
none of these acts leads to Sirat al Mustaqeem. Why so?
Well, had it been so then a Shia wouldn’t have become a Shia.
A Barelvi wouldn’t be a Barelvi.
A Sunni wouldn’t be a Sunni; a Wahhabi wouldn’t be a Wahhabi; Ahle Hadith wouldn’t be Ahle Hadith.
So what would they have been instead, had they found Sirat al Mustaqeem?
Ummat e Mustafa (the followers of Prophet Muhammad (s)).
This is the most important point.
Bulleh Shah said: 'All is contained within one point, and it is that one point that the beloved taught me.
Leave all else and hold fast to that point. Fold off the pages of apostasy'.
What is that one point? That point is this: the name and light of God enter into the heart of one, and that heart accepts the name of God.
It all comes down to acceptance.
You see, those who are in need of blood, it's not as if you can give them any type of blood.
What is a must for blood transfusion?
You must receive the same blood as your own blood group.
You cannot be given any other type of blood.
In the same way, God has prescribed a specific noor (light of God] to your heart.
Only God knows what that name [of God] is. Who knows which name and light your heart has been created with.
Only the name that God has specified [for your heart] is what shall work with your heart.
Now, the personal name of God [Allah] has been granted to your heart, and your heart has accepted it.
What does this mean? It means your heart and God’s name are compatible with each other.
Now, the fact that the light with which your heart was created, is compatible with the light of the personal name of God [Allah],
this means that you are a predestined Momin.
If you are given type A+ blood and your body is compatible with it, it means that your blood type is A+.
It cannot be anything else.
If your body has accepted [the blood transfusion] it means it was the same as your blood group.
What really matters? What matters is whether or not God placed divine light in your heart in the primordial times.
That’s what really matters.
It doesn’t make any difference to you whether or not the Qur’an was revealed.
It doesn’t make any difference to you whether or not the Bible was revealed.
If you are in need of A+ blood and all other blood groups are available in the world except A+,
then it doesn’t matter how much blood is given to you, it’s utterly useless for you.
The Qur’an, Bible, Talmud, Torah - these holy scriptures work upon those whose hearts have divine light.
You see, these decisions were not made today.
The nations [of the prophets] were created on the Primordial Day.
How were they made? Ask me.
Hold your horses, what’s the rush?
First of all, God rendered various names [of his] and various noor-types to various prophets.
For example, God rendered the name 'Rehman' to Moses.
Now, how did God create his nation?
He assembled the souls and presented them to Moses,
and when they stood before Moses, the reflection of 'Rahman' from the heart of Moses fell upon them,
when it did, the name 'Rahman' was preserved in their hearts.
Similarly, a great number of souls were assembled before Prophet Muhammad (s)
and the personal name of God was preserved in their hearts.
It is these souls that are declared ‘Ummati’.
Once in the world, you can have anyone recite the Motto of Faith, but will that make them Ummati? Nay!
It is God's job to make one an Ummati, and this is something that God has already done.
Now, when you were born into a Muslim household, you show gratitude towards God.
Why? Why are you thanking God? What has God given you so far?
He hasn't given you anything, you've only been born in a Muslim household.
Should you be grateful for that? No, absolutely not.
So, when should you be grateful to God? You should be grateful when you realise your reality.
Test your fate!
Find out what God has instilled within you!
Find a Spiritual Guide and go to him.
Now, you found a Spiritual Guide and you went to him.
He tried various names [of God] upon you, and no name was compatible with your heart.
The name of God wasn't compatible, nor was Rahman nor Quddus.
The heart was hardened to such a degree that no name entered it.
When the divine light did not enter such a heart...
Why did it not enter?
Because God did not instil noor into such a heart in the Primordial Times, God did not allocate him in any Ummah.
But he celebrates being born in a Muslim household although there is no proof that he belongs to any Ummah from within.
He is unclassified and does not belong to any of God’s lists.
But he’s celebrating his beard and his Muslim name.
He is renowned in society.
He offers salah himself and harasses others to do the same, but neither is your prayer reaching God, nor theirs, to whom you preach.
So when should you celebrate?
What is the moment in which you rejoice?
When the Spiritual Master grants you the name of God,
and your heart accepts God’s name and the name of God begins to reverberate in your heart.
This is evidence of the fact that when God assembled the Ummahs in the Primordial Times,
God presented your soul before Muhammad (s).
The reflection of God’s name in the Prophet (s)’s Chest settled into your heart.
The hearts that had the divine light of God's Personal Name,
it is those hearts that shall find the divine light of God's Personal Name when they are born into the world.
Those whose hearts were void of divine light in the Primordial Times cannot be filled with divine light when they are born into the world.
Furthermore, If God instilled the name of 'Rahman' on the Primordial Day,
then your heart is only compatible with the divine light of the name of 'Rahman'.
Your heart will not be compatible with any other divine name.
When Moses requested to witness the divine splendour,
rather he insisted, and the divine theophanies fell upon Mount Sinai, they reflected off the mountain and fell upon Moses;
Moses fell unconscious and the 70 tribal leaders that accompanied him to the mountain, all 70 of them perished.
When Moses came to, he asked, ‘O God, would there be any to bear this?’
God replied, ‘My beloved and his nation’.
Moses responded, ‘It would have been better had you sent me as an Ummati of the Prophet (s)’.
Now, what is the reason that one prophet requested to see God,
and it was tried and experimented but he was unable to see the Person of God.
While on the other hand, God has said the ummatis of the Prophet (s) shall be given this bounty?
He did not grant to a prophet what he granted to a mere ummati.
What’s the reason behind it?
The reason is that Moses had the divine light of the name ‘Rahman’,
therefore, his compatibility cannot be changed.
This is why his request to see God was denied.
Whereas, an ummati should celebrate,
because the name of God entered their hearts in the Primordial Times by virtue of Prophet Muhammad (s).
So, the right time to offer gratification to God is when your heart begins to echo with God’s name.
Now become carefree. Why?
Because now you have found evidence, you were part of the Prophet (s)’s Ummah even on the Primordial Day,
now you are equipped with the evidence.
This is what is called the gift of God.
Why is it called the gift of God?
We never asked for this, we wouldn’t even know what to ask for since we were not conscious in the Primordial Times.
These are the decisions of the Primordial Times.
Whatever name was granted to whichever prophet,
it is the divine light of that name that was granted to the hearts of their respective ummahs.
This is why when those souls were born, they automatically became ummati.
When you preach the religion to people of different races and have them recite the Kalima and become Muslim,
but you have only made them a Muslim, they did not become an ummati. Who is an ummati?
A real ummati is one who recited the Motto of Faith in the Primordial Times in the presence of God,
one in whose heart God’s name and light entered their hearts.
This is why there is a difference between the preaching of a saint and a clergyman.
Your preaching makes no difference; you are teaching the hypocrites how to offer salah.
You are teaching the Kalima to the apostates.
Whereas a saint only keeps those with him whose souls recited the Kalima in the presence of God and the Prophet (s).
This is why this is fully guaranteed.
And when God accepts you one day, after this, you’re given leniency on sins.
God says, 'You are mine, regardless of how you are'.
Like the offspring, one may be a good kid and the other a spoilt kid.
What does the mother do? Does she say that the good kid is hers and the spoilt kid isn't? No, she loves both her children.
So, this is the gift of God and this is what you must celebrate.
