Issue 3 - 2016 September 2016 A Publication of Lajna Ima’illah & Lajna Matters Nasiratul Ahmadiyya USA Dhul Hijjah 1437 Issue 3 - 2016 September 2016 Holy Qur’an Special Features The Glorious Qur’an Verily, Allah commands you to make over Message from Sadr Lajna the trusts to those entitled to them, and Correspondence that, when you judge between men, you judge with justice. And surely excellent is Huzoor’satba Sermon that with which Allah admonishes you! Taleem Matters Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing (4:59). Tarbiyyat Matters Tabligh Matters Khidmat-e-Khalq Matters Publication Matters Local Matters O ye who believe!

And if you differ in anything among yourselves, All members are refer it to Allah and His Messenger if asked to make use of you are believers in Allah and the Last the resources Day. That is best and most provided by Jama’at commendable in the end (4:60). and Lajna in order to improve their reading and their comprehension of the O ye who believe! prove not false to Holy Qur’an. All Ma- Allah and the Messenger, nor prove false jaalis are requested to to your trusts knowingly (8:28). spend 10-15 minutes during their General Meetings to improve their Tarteel. Surely, success does come to the believers, who are humble in their Prayers (23:2-3) Lajna Matters 3rd Quarter Issue, 2016 2 of 52 And it is by the great mercy of Allah that thou art kind towards them, and if thou hadst been rough and hard- hearted, they would surely have dispersed from around thee. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them, and consult them in matters of administration; and when thou art determined, then put thy trust in Allah. Surely, Allah loves those who put their trust in Him (3:160). Ahadith Hazrat Ayeshara relates that the Holy Prophetsaw said: “A believer can attain the rank of one who fasts during the day and spends the night in prayer through his good behavior” (Abu Daud). Hazrat Ayeshara relates that the Holy Prophetsaw said: “Gentleness adorns everything and its absence leaves everything defective” (Muslim). Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar bin Aasra relates that when the Holy Prophetsaw was asked what is the key to enter Paradise? He replied, “Telling the honest truth. Truth inculcates obedience; obedience inculcates those qualities that a true believer possesses. And a true believer enters Paradise” (Imam Malik). as Writings of the Promised Messiah I wish to see that my followers have become like the companions of the Holy Prophetsaw, in giving preference to Allah’s will. Nothing else should stand in their way. They should attach no importance to their riches or to their lives… The companions faced heavy odds to win Allah’s pleasure. If anyone one of them was not tired for Allah’s sake, he would feel worried. They had understood that the treasure of Allah’s pleasure was hidden under trials and tribulation… The Sahaba never stooped to worldly gains that they live long, amass wealth and enjoy a carefree life. Whenever I look to their example, I cannot but admit the highly ennobling spiritual powers of the Holy Prophetsaw. One wonders how he totally revolutionized their lives and made them to turn their faces towards Allah alone…. Our only object should be to seek Allah’s pleasure and we should make every effort to attain it; even though we are required to undergo hardships. For Allah’s pleasure is far better than this world and much more superior to all worldly pleasures (Malfoozat, Vol. VIII, pages 82 -83). The service of one’s fellow beings means to strive to their benefit purely for the sake of God in all their needs, and in all the relationships of mutual dependence which God has established, out of true and selfless sympathy for them. Everyone is in need of help and should be helped out of one’s God-given capacity and one must strive for their betterment both in this world and in the hereafter (Essence of Islam Vol. 1 pages 13 – 17). 3 of 52 Lajna Matters 3rd Quarter Issue, 2016 National Correspondence Message from Sadr Lajna Ima’illah USA, Saliha Malik Over the past weeks we have been occupied with Local Sadr and Shura Delegate elections. Now the outcome of those has been decided, let us pause to give heartfelt thanks to Allah for His guidance on the elections, as conducted in our community! We only use Prayer in selecting our members for these tasks. There is no canvassing of any kind and no self-promotion and we are therefore spared a great deal of stress and anguish. As we can see in the worldly campaigning currently in full swing, how much ugly character defamation and self-aggrandizement flares up at election time. Alhamdulillah for our quiet and prayerful elections that carry the stamp of humility and service for the love of Allah! There is nothing like it in the world today. Now in all Majalis, Aamilah members have been selected and are called upon to take up the work of Lajna. Therefore I humbly request everyone – members, workers and office holders – to read again our beloved Huzoor’satba Khutba on Essence of Tarbiyyat (7/15/2016), included in this issue, which beautifully elucidates our teachings on the proper attitude we should foster in ourselves as workers and Aamilah members of the Ahmadi Community. May Allah the Almighty help us all be those who are: - Watchful of our trusts, obedient Having no contradiction between our words and deeds in our observance of faith Forbearing, kind and gentle with people Humble in spirit Diligent and thorough in executing the tasks assigned to us And above all, may we be most mindful of keeping a loving, unbiased glance on everyone’s needs and that we do this work seeking the pleasure of Allah, recognizing that whatever we achieve is because of our link with Khilafat, by Allah’s Grace alone. May Allah enable us to absorb the words of our Beloved Khalifaatba into our lives, Ameen.

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.

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.

  • 33Rd Majlis Ansarullah Ijtema Uk Concludes in London with Address by Head of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community
    DATED: 23-09-2015 33RD MAJLIS ANSARULLAH IJTEMA UK CONCLUDES IN LONDON WITH ADDRESS BY HEAD OF AHMADIYYA MUSLIM COMMUNITY More than 3,100 people from across the UK and abroad attend event On 20 September 2015, the World Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, the Fifth Khalifa (Caliph), His Holiness, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad delivered the concluding address at the 32nd National Ijtema (Annual Gathering) of Majlis Ansarullah UK. The 3-day event, which was attended by more than 3,100 people from across the United Kingdom and abroad, was held at the Baitul Futuh Mosquecomplex in south-west London. During his address, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad referred to the fact that Majlis Ansarullah was celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2015. His Holiness said that the anniversary would only be worthy of celebration if it led to a moral and spiritual improvement amongst the members of the auxiliary organisation. Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad said: “Celebrating the 75th anniversary of Majlis Ansarullah will only prove beneficial if it is a means of increasing your bond with God Almighty and motivates you towards self-analysis and spiritual reformation. If however, the anniversary only entails superficial celebrations or temporary improvements then there will be no benefit.” Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad continued: “In the overall scheme of things 75 years is not of itself a huge period of time or especially significant. There are a number of organisations that are just as old or even older. However, we see that, over time, such groups deviate from their original objectives and consequently their benefit to the world declines.

Will you (O Prophet) then force people till they are believers?’ — The Holy Quran, 10:99 Members of the honourable Houses of Lords and Commons, and ladies and gentlemen: Firstly, I am thankful thatBritish law and traditions have made it possible for Muslims not only to live in the UK but also practice and preach their faith, Islam, with complete freedom, freedom from discrimination and freedom from harassment. Secondly, my respectful thanks aredue to all the successive Governments of this country for promoting tolerance of various religions, and to the British people for living in peace and harmony with Muslims who are settled here. My first visit to UK was about 40 years back,and it was love at first sight with UK in general and London in particular. Tower Bridge, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament with the River Thames were a captivating sight. Not in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that one day I would be standing right inside the Houses of Parliament addressing a gathering. It was in London that I qualified as MRCP UK from the Royal College of Physicians and was later honoured by that prestigious institution which granted me its fellowship, FRCP, in recognition of my services to medical education.
