Monday, Jul. 7, 2025

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

 

Ya Ali Madad! This post has three parts.

1. Selected verse from beautiful ginans of our Holy Pirs;
2. Knowledge Section; and
3. Angelic Salwat Dhikr.

 

Part 1: Teaching of Pir Shams (r.a.)

The following verse is taken from Pir Shams's Saloko Moto:

Satgur kahêrê
Didâr kijê Shâh Ali tanâ
Anê kijie purê vishvâs
Imân râkhie sâchsu
To pâmie Shâhnâ didâr rê .....134
  The True Guide says:
See the Vision (Didâr) of the Lord Ali (of this time).
And do it with complete conviction (Imân).
Maintain faith in the Truth (of Imamat),
then you will attain the Light and Vision of the Lord (in your forehead). .....134

 

Part 2: What is the relationship between Islam and the Holy Imam and how does it relate to activities of Noor Mowlana Hazar Imam?

Let us first reflect on the following quotations:

  1. "I define Islam for you in a way that nobody dare do it before me. Islam means obedience to God; obedience to God means having sincere faith in Him; such a faith means to believe in His Power; a belief in His Power means recognizing and accepting His Majesty; acceptance of His Majesty means fulfilling the obligations laid down by Him; and fulfillment of obligations means action."
    [Source: Nahjul Balagha: Sermons, letters and sayings of Hazrat Ali, Saying of Hazrat Ali number 124, p.286)
     
  2. "From that brief statement of my personal beliefs, I move on to as concise and as uncontroversial an exposition as I can give of Islam as it is understood and practised today. The present condition of mankind offers surely, with all dangers and all its challenges, a chance too—a chance of establishing not just material peace among nations but the better peace of God on earth. In that endeavour Islam can play its valuable constructive part, provided it is really understood and its spiritual and moral power recognized and respected."
    [His Highness The Aga Khan III: The Memoirs of Aga Khan, p. 172]

According to the Shia Imami Ismaili Muslim belief system, the spiritual and moral power of Islam is embodied in the present and living Holy Imam. Therefore, from the above quotations and my personal belief, the last sentence of the quotation of His Highness Aga Khan III, brings forward the concept that if Islam has to play its valuable constructive part in establishing God's peace on earth, then the spiritual and moral power of the present Holy Imam has to be recognized and respected first. The first group of people who have already accepted this concept are the Ismailis themselves. However, a much greater concerted effort has to be made to actualize the spiritual recognition of the Light of Noor Mowlana Shah Rahim Al-Hussaini Hazar Imam. Therefore, all of us have to significantly increase the intensity of ten gold-star, established and proven activites so that we may be spiritually prepared for the highly anticipated Darbars in different parts of the world!
