Demise of Individuals Cannot Disturb Islamic Objects

Shaikh-ul-Islam Mawlana Abdol-Hamid pointed out to the painful demise of his close assistant, late Mawlana Ahmad Narui, saying that he had dedicated his entire life for Islam and serving people.

Talking to tens of thousands in Zahedan, southeastern Iran, on Friday 21 March, 2014, Khateeb of Sunnis said, “The painful and shocking demise of the eminent, pious and sincere scholar, Mawlana Ahmad, may Allah have mercy on him, made all of us heartsick. Dozens of academic, political and official individuals have been sorrowful over the incident as many of scientific centers, Ulama and seminaries from inside and outside of the country sent their condoling messages.”

“Mawlana Ahmad’s days and nights were dedicated for others; he was sympathetic for the nation, government and all Muslims. The late scholar was a sober man; he was following the footprints of Mawlana Abdol-Aziz, the founder of Darululoom Zahedan. He was the man of consultation. He used to consult others in making decisions. He was an expert man in many different issues, including religious, economic and social affairs. In short words, he was an exceptional man,” he added more.

The rector of Darululoom Zahedan further said that when a person breathes his last breaths, his face changes as he bears difficulties by leaving soul the body, but the face of Mawlana Ahmad was riant and smiling after death. Thus we hope his Hereafter life will be much better than his worldly life.

Shaikh Abdol-Hamid thanked officials, Ulama and people from different backgrounds in Sistan-Baluchistan and the rest of the country over taking part in the funeral prayers of Mawlana Ahmad and sending condolence messages. He said the huge and warm presence of people and officials in the funeral ceremony was ‘unexpected’ and ‘unprecedented’.

“There is no doubt we are so fidgety and sorrowful over losing a sincere friend, respectable colleague and knowledgeable advisor, but we are sure there will not be any disturbance in the Islamic and social affairs. Because, Islam does not depend on individuals like me and my colleagues. Allah Almighty advances the works of His perfect and chosen religion by anyone He wants to implement the right. So we hope the services carried out by Mawlana Ahmad would be continued with more forces strongly, if Allah wills,” Shaikh-ul-Islam underlined.

Mawlana Abdol-Hamid concluded his points by saying, “As late Mawlana Ahmad belonged to all people, every one of us should make Du’a for full forgiveness of this great scholar, correct edification of his children, and spiritual and material development of Darululoom and Grand Makki Masjid of Zahedan.”

Leaving the world fully, specialty of the close servants of Allah
Khateeb of Ahl-us-Sunnah in Zahedan began the first part of his sermon by the noble Qur’anic verse: «اللّهُ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَقَدِرُ», (Allah extends provision to whomsoever He wills, and straitens (it for whomsoever He wills)) and said, “Desuetude and abandonment of the world is an exclusive work of the close servants of Allah. The Last Messenger of Allah, the Guided Caliphs and many of the companions did not want to pay any attention to the world and develop their worldly life; instead they strove to develop the world of people. However, some great companions, may Allah be pleased with them, like Othman bin Affan and Abd-ur-Rahman bin Auf were rich people, but they utilized their wealth on the path of serving Islam and Muslims.”

He added more, “Common people should earn and pass the life by correct and peaceful ways to develop their worldly life; they should seek ways like agriculture, ranch and industry without greed and avarice. Their love should be for Allah and Islam while they work hard to have any legal income; such halal incomes must be utilized in appropriate places. If anyone helps poor and needy people by his wealth, he will have a bright future in the Hereafter life. Wealth and money should not be used in sins.”

Khateeb of Sunnis said the mania of wealth makes people fond of money, then such people do not leave any stone unturned to earn more and collect more wealth by any possible way; they do not care of Halal and Haram, bribery, fraud and scandal. So all Muslims should be alert to protect themselves from the love of wealth. Remember death and Hereafter always.
