Pebbles And Grass Too Keep Busy In HIS Remembrance.
There is a very significant practice that Almighty likes a
lot. This is remembrance of God in different spectrum which is exclusively for
God itself
It is stated that ordinary things
like pebble, metal, scrap water are all the time busy and keep themselves busy
in the non stop process called ZIKR
once prophet (SAW) lifted a handful of coarse sand and pebbles in his hand when
he lifted his hand up to his ears he disclosed that these ordinary sand particles
and pebbles are also praising the name of God and the prophet could hear their
voice.
Once two prominent righteous
persons Abdulallah and Ahmed bin Harb RA were going together to reach a
destination. In terms of praising God, they were always surpassing each other
but without mutual disclosure about the same Ahmed RA and his companion sat on
a grassy ground to take rest. Ahmed RA started uprooting some grass, when
observed by Abdullah RA, he could not tolerate it and instantly with a little
sarcasm remarked --- “you bought five odd things“
A)You removed your attention from the word of
praising Almighty and distracted your heart in attention towards the grass
uprooting activity.
B) You are in the habit of shifting your attention
to other things instead of zikrullah (Praising
the name of Almighty).
C) You have chalked out a trail which will be
practiced by the people in future (uprooting the plants and exposing the soil
for ulterior motive full of selfish purpose of making path for the tress
passers --- certainly not liked by God.
D) You have prevented this much uprooted grass
plants from speaking the words of praise for HIM.
E) On the doomsday, this malpractice will loom
around you for the harassing argument initiated from the side of Almighty ---- certainly
it is also highly uncalled for, for a faithful divine pious man like you. Hearing
this explanation Ahmed Bin Harb RA started trembling with fear and felt too much
ashamed and supplicated for pardon and be forgiven for the same misdeed in the
court of Allah.
Similarly according to a pious
person of high repute when he recited the verse of Quran from para 05 Ayat 15
which states “There is nothing on the
earth and above/under it which doesn’t speak the words of praise and His piety
perpetually. When he thought over it and got perplexed to think that if it is
true why not human beings hear their sound of praise ? Instantly, he developed the
urge to go to toilet for urination when he wanted to lift the container filled
with water for the needful, the metal container could be heard saying Allah
Allah! when the pious person heard this pious name he got ashamed and changed
his idea for using that container and taking it in toilet as. It will be a
disrespect on his part. He proceeded to look for the brick brits for the
needful but he could clearly hear all the brick pieces were also saying Allah
Allah repeatedly to his surprise the
things lying around him all except nothing were praising God and the sound was
quite audible for him. He was non plussed and helpless.
Instantly from an unknown source
he heard the commanding voice saying ”do you understand now as to why the voice
of speaking words of praise” from all the things around you have been
deliberately kept inaudible, other wise your routine activity and actions could
be stopped for you. On hearing this the pious man had fallen in sajda and
requested Almighty for forgiving him for the confusion that was created in his
heart. This is the significance of the words of praise and piety for Allah by
all his creations.
Miracle in Journey of Ibrahim Bin Adham(R.A)
Ibrahim Bin Adham was contemporary to Junaid Baghdadi (R.A).
Once he was in a journey, he came across a person in the way, he asked about
his name. Ibrahim RA pointed towards the grave yard the person who was a sepoy
got hot, and remarked why he is kidding? he angrily insulted him and put a
rope around the neck of the Ibrahim R.A and dragged him to the place of nearby
inhabited locality. A person of the locality understood and recognised Ibrahim
bin Adham RA. and reproved the sepoy as to what sin he had committed? when he
came to know that the righteous figure was Ibrahim (R.A), he lied prostate before him and
requested to pardon him. In turn Ibrahim RA replied --- “your deed of atrocity
has rendered me entitled for entrance in paradise, and therefore, I pray in your favour, that you also enter
the paradise.
An elderly pious man saw in a dream that people already in
paradise are with plenty of pearls with each. In dream itself he wanted to know
about the reason for pearls. He was told that an unknown person has hit the head
of Ibrahim Bin Adham by hammer and we have been ordered that when that man
enters the paradise all these pearls will be offered and showered in his honour.
H Mohammad Sufi describes that once I was with Ibrahim RA in the journey towards “betul-muqaddas
“ and performed salaatul Zohar under a
small and dense tree of pomegranate. When they were free the tree politely requested them --- “please taste my fruits in order to benefit in my status” Ibrahim RA plucked two fruits one given to
Mubrak Sufi and one he him self consumed. Although the fruits where not sweet. When
both of them returned, reached the same place and plucked the fruits, the size of
the fruits as well the taste was much improved and became very sweet. Not only this, the benefit
extended to the tree resulted in multiple period of its fruitation, this was a
miracle. Later on this tree was named” rassanul
abedeen “
Ibrahim Bin Adham
once was sleeping near bank of DAZLA River in his thin bedding. Some body came and asked him --- why he left
the power of possession and ruling the
people , and what gain he received in turn? Listening this Ibrahim RA threw
away his only possesion a needle (which was for mending the thin bedding) in the DAZLA River.He
observed that a very large number of fishes started appearing with golden needle
in the mouth of each. Ibrahim RA requested --- Please give me my needle only. One
of the fishes brought his needle and handed over to Ibrahim RA. He then explained
the person about rejecting the power of
ruling, and in turn, and how he received this ordinary needle . When he wanted to
take out of water from nearby well, he
saw that the container drawn up was full
of gold instead of water. He put back the gold into the well. And in the second effort he received
the container full of silver he put it back again into the well and in his
third effort the container was full of beautiful pearls. On this, he supplicated
and requested God with full politeness --- O Allah I require water to clean my
Body, for salaat etc, I do not have any liking for the gold or the other precious
things.
In the journey for Hajj once his fellowmen revealed that
they did not have arrangement for any thing little or more for eating. Ibrahim
RA replied --- believe in God and pray. He pointed to see towards that
big tree which had completely transformed into tree of Gold. It was sufficient for
them all, to meet the need for food etc for all of them and for number of years.
Once, near an old fort Ibrahim RA stayed with some elderly
righteous people and started burning the dry grass for the fire needed for
cooking some body reported in light of fire there is availability of water and
if some how they get the flesh they may roast it and consume. He replied all
should fall in Sajada “and pray for the same, after a while ,they heard that a
Lion with a dear in his control was proceeding towards them. And put the
dear near them. after Zibah” all the
people of party roasted the flesh and till all of them completely consumed the
flesh, that Lion remained in their service as guard. And disappeared after this
incident was over.
was this not less than a miracle?
was this not less than a miracle?
Long jump of a crying black Dog.
Once in Yemen a strange happening was recorded. A person
died, as usual, the people of locality collected to bury the dead. After the
dead body was put to rest and covered with mud etc. They people started
retreating to their respective houses. But
one of the righteous man had overstayal, as he intended to offer some pious and
divine verses of the Holy book in favor of
the dead, so that the person who died could get benefit by Almighty. But
before preparing for the same, He observed that a strange looking black dog of
extra length jumped out from the grave out of fear, terrifying sound of a big
explosion also came from the grave – the black dog had a long jump ,it emitted,
painful horrifying cry full of agony as
if deeply hurt.
The pious man became so much angry on this incident that he
could not resist to ask the evil looking dog showing his contempt, reproved ,
reprimanded towards the dog he remarked
” be all the curse and calamity converge upon you! tell me who you are
and why did you jump out crying with this horrifying voice. The evil looking
strange black dog replied ” I personify the collection of bad deeds of this dead body. Slightly convincing, with little bit of reconciliation
he further asked what caused the horrifying voice which was never heard
before. Was it due to some sort of
injury targeted to your body, or did it come from the body of the dead.
No it hurt me only replied the dog. When asked why did it
happen the dog replied----“ this person in his life time used to recite the
verses of “the heart of Holy book” and
this Surah came in between, stopped me from hurting the dead body, not even
this, but also Surah Yaseen refrained me
to touch his body and threw me out of
the grave with great power. Then the dog vanished Such is the power of the
verses of “Kitab ul Mubin” so it is sincere advice to all the
followers of the prophet SAW to recite and go on reciting the verses of the
Holy book without fail till one breaths his last. Ameen.
REMEMBER:-
The verses of the Holy Book Guide that reconciliation is the
best. Peace is desirable even if it can only be established by incurring risk.
We put our hopes in Almighty and believe that God takes the side of those who
love peace and not to those who use deception .Almighty has decreed that
success will be ensured, as achievement, only through path of reconciliation and never through confrontational or a violent
course of action.
Prophet. Daud (David) and Red Worm.
One fine morning H.Daud was sitting in front of his room. He was reciting his holy
book, when he shifted his attention, he saw in front of him that through cracked
soil with crevices, among the grassy scanty patches of the land,
there appeared a red worm. When it came out and started moving slowly H.Daud
thought as to why this worm has been created by Almighty, it is seemingly
worthless of no use for any work. Instantly Almighty commanded the worm to
speak about the fact in order to explain its relevancy in its creation to
H.Daud . It said, O prophet of Almighty , I have been created for
the purpose, God has imprinted in my brain to say the three words of praise -
one thousand time a day which mean. 01. Almighty is all glorious free from any
defect/evil. 02. All the praise is only for HIM. 03.
There is no one associated with HIM to be worshipped and he is the Greatest and
no one else is great like HIM.
Similarly I have been instructed to
recite one thousand times this the Darud Sharif - all through the every night
which says O Allah be Merciful on the true followers of prophet Mohammad SAW
and All the coming generation of same people be in security of Allah.
H. Daud was surprised and repented,
what he thought to be seemingly worthless looking sheer red worm has also been
created for a distinct purpose and to obey the instruction of God all day and
all night honestly without fail. On the other hand, we, the best creation of
God sometimes shift our attention away from remembrance of God. Red worm became
source of lesson for H.Daud. Always remember that whatever has been
created by Allah bears a specific purpose and not a useless creation. We only
need is to give a deep thought to His creations big or small, and instantly, we
ought o realise ---“ Allah is Greatest and all praise is for Him only”.
Remember:-
· From
the exegesis of the HOLYBOOK it is clarified that the role of peace in the
world is purely and only to set the stages to live and strive for the cause of
justice, love, service and work together to words constructive ends.
· When
peace will prevail substantially in its real meaning the parties involved are
engaged in positive activity, channelizing their energy in reconstructing
their own lives and their social setup as well as environment.
· Peace
opens doors of a number of opportunities of wide choice and by exploiting these
opportunities mankind as a whole reach the required goal that is justice for
all.
