How much time have you spent with the Syedna(tus) one on one
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:
I challenge you to
reach the glorious character and strength of Aqa Maula(tus). Can you match the power and sincerity in his voice?
If yes, then why not try giving a "waaz"
like he gives. How much time have you spent with the Syedna(tus)
one on one? I am sure you have never received the opportunity of having spent
time with him one on one. I have been blessed with numerous one on one meetings
and each of them has been a blessed one. You are truly a misguided soul and I
pray that you may recieve guidance to be on the
straight path and follow the path of Aqa Maula (tus).

Answer:
Syedna one on
one
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.
We sincerely and humbly pray
that Allah Subhanah guide you, us, and all our
brethren to the Straight Path; and give us the wisdom, knowledge and courage to
follow the path of Allah Subhanah, and leave alone
all the other paths created by man!
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 120:Say, “The
Guidance of Allah, that is The Guidance!”
And, if, after all the knowledge you have received, you were to yield to
their desires, you shall find neither friend, nor helper, against Allah.
It has been
reported by Jabir ibn
Abdullah (r.a.) in another
authentic narration that the Prophet of Allah (saws) said in a sermon: “The best speech is that which is embodied in
the Book of Allah, the Al Quran; and the best
guidance is the guidance given by me, (Mohamed (saws)).”
We are not sent on the earth to
compete with someone’s character, nor strength, nor power, nor sincerity, nor
voice, nor his ‘waaz’, etc. Allah created human beings to be His slaves
and to worship Him Alone, without associating any other with Him! Each individual will be accountable for his
own deeds in the Court of Allah Subhanah; and each
person will carry his own burden!
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 51 Surah Dhariyat verse 56:I have not
created the jinn and men except for this that they should worship Me alone.
Your Statement: How much time have you spent with the Syedna(tus) one on one? I am sure you have never

Unless, one has knowledge of the
unseen, one cannot be sure about the dealings and
intentions of another! The truth is
brother, in our days of ignorance, we unfortunately
have spent a lot of time ‘one on one’ with the TUS, and my late father was
unfortunate enough to host him in our house on more occasions than we care to
remember!
All Praise is due to Allah Subhanah Who guided us to read and understand the Glorious Quran and take the Path of Tawheed,
instead of blindly following the path of ‘shirk’!
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 18 Surah Kahf verses 103-106:Tell them, “Should
We tell you who are the most unsuccessful people and miserable failures in
regard to their deeds? They are those,
all whose edeavours in the worldly life, had gone
astray from the
Your Statement: You are truly a misguided soul and I pray
that you may recieve guidance to be on the straight
path and follow the path of Aqa Maula (tus). We
seek the refuge of Allah from following any other path, than the Path shown by Allah Subhanah! Allah
Alone is The ‘AQA’,
and He Alone is The ‘MAULA’ of the believers.
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 22 Surah Hajj
verse 78:Exert your utmost for the cause of Allah, as
one should. He has chosen you for His
service and has not laid on you any hardship in your deen. Therefore, be steadfast in the religion of
your father, Abraham. Allah had called
you ‘Muslims” before this, and has called you (by the same name) in this Quran also, so that the Messenger may be a witness in
regard to you, and you may be witnesses in regard to the rest of mankind. Therefore, establish the ‘salaat’ and pay the ‘zakaat’, and
hold fast to Allah. He (Allah)
is your ‘MAULA’: what an excellent
‘MAULA’ and what an excellent Helper!
May Allah have mercy and guide
those who choose others as their ‘maulas’, besides
Allah Subhanah!
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 22 Surah Hajj
verses 13:Then, instead of Allah, he invokes those who
can do him neither harm nor good. This
is the last extremity of deviation!! He
invokes those who are more likely to do him harm, than good! What an EVIL ‘MAULA’ he chooses,
and what an evil companion.
From Allah we have all come, and
to Him is our ultimate return!!!
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.
