One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

JUST LISTEN CAREFULLY THAT I FOLLOWER OF SYEDNA (TUS) WILL NOT GOING TO LISTEN YOURS WORDS I WILL FOLLOW MY SYEDNA (TUS) WHATEVER HE WILL SAY ME TO DO I WILL DO. BUT BELIVE ME IF I FOUND YOU THEN I WILL SURELY KILL YOU.

ABDE SYEDNA (TUS)

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and who-ever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 22 Surah Hajj verse 71-72: They worship besides Allah those for whom Allah has sent down NO AUTHORITY! Nor they themselves have any knowledge about them. Such transgressors have no helper! And when our CLEAR REVELATIONS are recited to them, you perceive signs of disdain on the faces of the disbelievers, as though they were going to ASSUALT those who recite our Revelations to them!

My beloved brother in Islam, we send you these emails in the name of Allah, and we only do what our Lord has enjoined us to do. He has enjoined every believer to invite mankind to the Truth of Islam, and that is exactly what we do. Our only motive is to invite you to read and understand the Glorious Quran, so that you would come to the invocation and worship of that One Lord Alone, the Lord of the Universe.

Allah says in the Holy Quran: Chapter 16, Surah An-Nahl Ayat 125: Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and excellent admonition and argue with people in the best manner. Your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Way and who is Rightly guided.

If anything that we say is not true, or if any of the aayahs that we quote are not from the Holy Quran, or are not the correct meaning of the translation, or are misquoted, or are out-of-context, we invite you to correct us. But if what we say and quote from the Holy Quran is the Truth, and the Quran says nothing but the Truth from our Lord, then fear the coming of an inevitable Day, when you and I and all mankind will be gathered in His Court, to give a full accounting of all our deeds!

My beloved brother, if inviting you to the Truth of Islam, and giving you direct evidence from the Holy Quran for everything that we say, is deserving of you threatening to kill us, go ahead and do what your heart desires; and fear that Allah, Who created you, me, the heavens and the earth, and everything that exists in between. We will not raise our hands, nor say a word, except for what one son of Prophet Adam (a.s.) said to his brother who wanted to kill him:

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 5 Surah Maidah verse 28-29: Even if you stretch your hand to kill me, I shall not lift my hand to kill you, for I fear Allah, the Lord of the Universe! I would rather prefer that you should bear the burden of my sin as well as of your sin, and become a dweller of Hell. This is the just retribution of the wrong doings of the aggressors.

My beloved brother in Islam, we urge you to read the Glorious Quran once with understanding, and you will recognize who is Rightly Guided, and who is astray. The Quran is the very word of our Lord and Creator, Allah Subhanah, and its guidance and teachings are clear, open, direct and easy. We ask you to bear witness that we have invited you time and again to read and understand the Holy Quran, and that we have tried to deliver the clear and open Message of our Lord in the best manner; and Allah Alone suffices as a witness between you and us.

May Allah help us, guide us, and forgive us our sins. May Allah open our hearts to the understanding of the Glorious Quran, so that we can be guided aright. May Allah increase our knowledge in Islam so that we can recognize the unscrupulous people who try to conceal the clear guidance and teachings of the Holy Quran from us.

May Allah guide you and us to read and understand the simple and plain words of the Glorious Quran. May Allah increase our knowledge from the Holy Quran. May Allah guide us to the Siraat al Mustaqeem.

May Allah guide you and us all to the Siraat al-Mustaqeem

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

Burhan
