Then, in a flash, God revealed seven principles vis-à-vis prayers described in the Sūrah. Gratefulness is due thus to Allah for this grace. ْ ٰ that the aim sought in a prayer should only be for a noble بس ِم ّ ِ الل First Principle of Prayers: It is described in cause, not that the prayer of a thief for the success of his theft will be accepted. A prayer, which is requested in the name of God seeking His assistance, must be for a purpose in which God can be a party with man. It is observed that many people pray for the ruin and destruction of others… Similarly, they pray for unjust objectives and then they complain that their prayers were not accepted. Some people pose to be righteous and give amulets while praying for illegitimate purposes. In fact, these prayers and amulets shall be thrown back on their faces. ْ ٰ ْ ْ The prayers should be such that as a .الحمد ِ ِلل رب ال ٰعل ِمی Second Principle of Prayers: In fact, it is described in َ َ ُ ّ َ ّ َ result of them men of God, rather the whole world, are benefited or at least they are not hurt. The acceptance of prayers should stamp the praise of Allah and no allegation of any sort should fall on Him. Third Principle of Prayers: That the prayers are presented in such a manner as to stir the graciousness of God. The acceptance of the prayers should reveal graciousness of Allah. Fourth Principle of Prayers: The prayers must also have a relationship with God’s attribute of Mercy. In other words, it must have a foundation of virtue for which the world may be affected for a long period of time and from which noble and good people are benefited continuously or at least they do not cause obstruction in their path. ْ is also included in the prayer. That those worldly ٰم ِل ِک یوم ِالین Fifth Principle of Prayers: That the attribute of َ ّ means are not ignored in prayers, which are proposed by God for producing the right results. As these means have also been instituted by God therefore asking help from Him by ignoring these principles is unreasonable. As far as the use of available means is concerned, if they are available and it is possible for the seeker to use them, their use ْ is manifested ٰم ِل ِک یوم ِالین is necessary at the time of the prayers. If they are not available, then the attribute of َ ّ above all means. There is another point in this Sūrah that the seeker should be treating others with forgiveness and does not portray harshness in securing his own rights from others. Sixth Principle of Prayers: The sixth principle states that the seeker has a perfect relationship with Almighty God and possesses perfect sincerity. He should also be fully devoid of polytheism and polytheistic views. Seventh Principle of Prayers: That he belongs to God and possesses perfect trust in Him. He does not depend on any other than God and reaches such heights where for anything or any discomfort he says: “I shall ask only from God.” for my servant) لِع ِبدی ما سأ ل If a person is established on these seven principles, then he becomes an example of َ َ َ َ َ is what he asked for). And, it is true that the perfect example of this kind of prayer is shown only by the Holy Prophet (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) or is exhibited by following him perfectly. The world has seen signs of acceptance of prayers only through them, which gave sight to the blind, ears to deaf and tongues to the dumb. The height attained by following the Holy Prophet (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is not shut for anybody. Anyone can try and attain these heights.

  • HUZOOR's TOUR of GERMANY JUNE 2014 a Personal Account By
    HUZOOR’S TOUR OF GERMANY JUNE 2014 A Personal Account PART 2 By Abid Khan 1 Departure for Munich On 9th June 2014, Huzoor and his Qafila departed from the Baitus Sabuh Mosque in Frankfurt at 10.15am. We were travelling to Neufahrn a small town, known as a municipality, lying in the suburbs of Germany’s famous city of Munich. Huzoor was travelling to inaugurate the Al-Mahdi Mosque. Apart from Berlin, Munich is considered to be Germany’s most famous city internationally. It is home to the famous football team ‘Bayern Munich’ and also home to the renowned car maker BMW. The drive from Frankfurt took nearly 3 and a half hours and as we approached Neufahrn the Qafila cars were escorted by 2 police cars. One of the police cars was a ‘special forces’ car which travelled at the rear of the Qafila, whilst the other police car acted as the lead car. Apart from these 2 cars there were other police cars that had completely blocked traffic on certain roads so that Huzoor’s car could travel directly without any delay. As I saw this I felt a great deal of gratitude to the German authorities for welcoming Huzoor in such a positive way. 2 Arrival in Munich We arrived at the Al­Mahdi Mosque at 1.35pm where Huzoor was greeted by a local dignitary. The dignitary spoke very passionately as he welcomed Huzoor and said that he held a very deep respect for the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. Huzoor thanked him for his courtesy and kindness.

Gurdaspur (Punjab) Our Teaching (English Translation of a portion of the urdu Book KISHTI-E-NUH) Written by : Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Promised Messiah & Mehdi Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat First Published in 1988 Previous Edition 2010 Present Edition 2016 Copies 2000 Published by : Nazarat Nashr-o-Ishaat Sadr Anjuman Ahmadiyya Qadian - 143516 Distt. Gurdaspur (Pb.) INDIA Printed at : Fazl-e-Umar Printing Press, Qadian ISBN : 978-81-7912-257-0 FOREWORD This is a time when the darkness of materialism has overspread the entire face of the earth and obscured people’s vision. Many there are who profess faith but are deprived of its true sweetness and strength. They are unaware of the One Living, Omnipresent God. For the benefit of seekers after truth, therefore, I present an abridged version of the teaching of the Holy Founder of the Ahmadiyya Movement as laid down in his book Kashti-Nuh (lit. Noah’s Ark) which he wrote to save men from the current deluge of irreligion and materialism. This book was intended mainly for the members of the Ahmadiyya Community but Muslims in general have also been addressed in it. The book is a torch of guidance through which every Muslim, nay every man with a craving for truth and spirituality, can rekindle his inner lamp and illuminate his heart. The present abridgement is an English rendering of the Founder’s own sacred words and, therefore, is replete with all the blessings that descend from heaven on the heart of a holy person.

    STATE OF WASHINGTON DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS HANDBOOK OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND PRACTICES 1987 FIRST REVISION 1995 SECOND REVISION 2004 THIRD REVISION 2011 FOURTH REVISION 2012 FIFTH REVISION 2013 HANDBOOK OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND PRACTICES INTRODUCTION The Department of Corrections acknowledges the inherent and constitutionally protected rights of incarcerated offenders to believe, express and exercise the religion of their choice. It is our intention that religious programs will promote positive values and moral practices to foster healthy relationships, especially within the families of those under our jurisdiction and within the communities to which they are returning. As a Department, we commit to providing religious as well as cultural opportunities for offenders within available resources, while maintaining facility security, safety, health and orderly operations. The Department will not endorse any religious faith or cultural group, but we will ensure that religious programming is consistent with the provisions of federal and state statutes, and will work hard with the Religious, Cultural and Faith Communities to ensure that the needs of the incarcerated community are fairly met. This desk manual has been prepared for use by chaplains, administrators and other staff of the Washington State Department of Corrections. It is not meant to be an exhaustive study of all religions. It does provide a brief background of most religions having participants housed in Washington prisons. This manual is intended to provide general guidelines, and define practice and procedure for Washington State Department of Corrections institutions. It is intended to be used in conjunction with Department policy. While it does not confer theological expertise, it will, provide correctional workers with the information necessary to respond too many of the religious concerns commonly encountered.
