Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Brother Burhan as salaam o alaikum! first of all i do not want you to show this on your site because it is not a question. i am a brother just like you and have been disillusioned for a long time with the anti islamic activities of the bhai sahebs, amil sahebs and the rest of them. by the grace of Allah my parents always read and would read to us the translation of the Holy Quran since we were small. thus the realization that bohras are a fraud as a community came to me quite early in my life. i completely agree that we should only be Muslims. not sunnis or shias etc etc. i think you are doing a great job. may God Bless you. I do want to contribute in some way to your forum. I am well read in the Quran and can either help you in spreading the word of God through your forum, or can contribute in some other way as you may seem fit even monetarily if possible. Once again brother Burhan keep doing what you are doing, and inshallah you will make a difference. Do write to me in what way i may help. sincerely, a muslim brother

Answer:

Offer to Help on site

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever 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.

All Praise is due to Allah Subhanah Alone Who has had Mercy on us, and guided us to the Straight Path of Islam. Brother, you cannot imagine our happiness when we received your email, and you cannot imagine what your thoughts mean to us. May Allah Subhanah reward you with the best in this world and honor you with the highest Firdaus in the Hereafter. Ameen.

The best way you can help us brother, is that you supplicate Allah Subhanah for us and implore him to give us the wisdom, patience, and steadfastness to strive in His Way to the best of our ability. We constantly pray and beg our Merciful Lord to accept our humble deeds, have Mercy on all the believers, forgive us our shortcomings, and save us all from the torment of the Hell Fire. Ameen.

Brother, you will help us and contribute to the Cause of Allah by propagating the Truth of the Holy Quran to all who are around you, wherever in the world you may be… and especially to our Bohra brethren, as they have a bigger right upon us as they are our people. May Allah Subhanah help us and guide us to invite all who want to listen to good caution, to the very words and Message of our Merciful Lord.

Brother, another way you can help us is by collecting and sending us the email addresses of the brothers and sisters who might be interested in receiving the Message of Truth; or you could create your own database of email addresses and forward our humble articles, or any other good Islamic articles from the Holy Quran to them. If we are able to help even one brother or sister to come closer to the guidance of the Holy Quran through our efforts, we will have done our duty towards them.

May Allah reward you with more from His unlimited Bounty and increase His Provisions for you, for offering to help us monetarily. Brother, the truth is that all the brothers and sisters who volunteer their time and efforts on this forum are doing it for one reason, and one reason only: to gain the Pleasure and Good Will of our Merciful Lord. Thus, in reality, there is not much expense that we occur to keep this forum in circulation. And whatever little expense there is, Alhamdolillah, by the Grace of Allah, we are able to afford it. We implore Allah Subhanah that He reward you generously for your offer, and may He accept your words of encouragement to us, as your contribution towards our humble forum.

May Allah Subhanah bless you and your family, and always keep you and us all, in His Infinite Mercy and Protection.

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 in Islam,

Burhan
