Rang-o-Noor (BY SA'DI) WHY DELAY?
Rang-o-Noor (BY SA'DI)  WHY DELAY?

Allah is Very-Merciful, Very, Very-Merciful and Kind. Allah! Allah! Allah!

Think a little please, what type of people and what type of sins did Allah forgive. A man was fighting with his sword against Allah's Prophet  and attacking him, but when he recited Kalimah and asked forgiveness, Allah forgave him at once. Now, when his name is recited, the entire Ummah say  that Allah has got pleased with him. Do estimate the intensity of sin and then try to estimate Allah's mercy and forgiveness. Now, admit O sinning brothers and sisters that Allah is Very-Merciful. Why delay in repentance and asking forgiveness? Why hesitation?

Lo, listen to the words of the Holy Prophet  "If you commit sins equal to the width between the earth and the sky but ask forgiveness, Allah will forgive you."

Subhaan Allah! Both the earth and the sky are very wide to us but neither earth nor sky is wide to our Lord, nor the width between them. If He looks at us with mercy, all the sins will be transformed into virtues. Still delay in repentance? Still delay in Istighfar?

No, need talking of Mansur Ijaz Qadiaani who is an unholy, oppressor, and nasty enemy because the very denier of prophethood is the enemy of Pakistan, the enemy of Islam and the Muslims. Now, Mansur Ijaz thinks that he will destroy the country through his conspiracies. The entire Qaadiaani lobby is clapping hands in delight. But this dream of wretched people will also shatter if Allah wills.

Let go Hussain Haqaani who is self-seeker, liar, cunning person, enemy of Jihaad and Mujaahideen, rebel of Allah's Deen, seller of the country and many others like him. All of them have been trying to wipe out Islam and Jihaad from Pakistan but in vain. Allah be thanked. How can it be? Who can wipe out the writing in the Holy Quran? Jihaad is the command of the Holy Quran. It is not a hand-written saying. It is indelible order of the Supreme Ruler. Those who try to wipe it out, themselves are blackened and wiped out. If only the Pakistanis be attached with لا الہ الا اللہ and adopt محمد رسول اللہ become mad lovers of prayer and Jihaad, by the Lord of Ka'bah, no one will be able to wipe them out. Actually, the Satan has dropped the atom bomb of disappointment at us. Alas! Disappointment and that is also of Allah!

May Allah forgive! Allah says

"Only those are disappointed of Allah's mercy who are Pagans." (Yousaf -87)

O courageous, do not tire! The voice of acceptance can be heard any moment. The Holy Prophet  says: When a slave keeps striving to win good pleasure of Allah, Allah says to Jibraaeel, "Such and such of my slave is busy in pleasing Me. Lo, listen, and mercy is to him." Hearing this, Hazrat Jibraaeel says رحمۃ اﷲ علیٰ فلان   Allah's mercy is upon him." The people are busy listening to the songs but he is away songs, films and evil-eye. Why? Just to please Allah. He is observing Istighfar, Durood, Kalima, worship of the Creator and service of the creation, Guartrust that pleases the heart, humility that the earth envies it. Why? Just to please Allah. There is work in the morning and evening, day and night which, at last, shows its colouring and the skies begin to echo with the sound of رحمۃ اللہ علیہ . Do open the eyes of love. The Holy Prophet  says:-

(1) When Allah created the creation, He wrote one thing that is above the High-Throne," and that is "No doubt, "My Mercy supersedes My wrath."

Allah! Allah! Allah! My Lord is Merciful, Very-Merciful, Very, Very-Merciful! When you get the capacity to go to the Masjid after sins, do think, how great is my Lord. He is Merciful that He grants His culprit with the capacity to enter His House. The people cut the legs of the culprits but here is permission to prostrate before Him in His House. Allah! Allah! Allah!

(2) There are one hundred mercies with Allah. Only one of them has Allah descended upon the earth. Only owing to this mercy, giants, men, cattle and reptiles love one another. Only owing to it, the ferocious beasts are kind to their offspring. Allah has kept ninety-nine mercies in delay that He will be kind to His slaves only due to them.

The entire creation from the creation of the earth to the Day of Judgement is filled with love, services and relation only due to one mercy of Allah. Every mother's love for her children, children's love for their parents, wife's love for her husband and what else, all is one mercy. When on the Day of Judgement, ninety-nine mercies will bubble up, the entire creation will cry out, "No doubt, Allah is Very-Merciful, Very, Very-Merciful and Very-Kind.

(3) If a Mu'min knows about Allah's punishment, he will never expect of the Paradise. If a Pagan knows Allah's mercy, he will never be disappointed of the Paradise. (Al-Bukhaari, Al-Muslim)

No doubt, the Great Lord is very hard in punishment and accountability. Qaaroon is going deep down the earth consecutively. Allah! Allah! Pharaoh is daily burnt in the Fire. Neither fire, nor pain nor punishment comes to an end. The treasures there will also not end up. But mercy is so great that as soon as one asks forgiveness, mercy begins to fall down like a heavy rain. This is such a mercy that if an Infidel comes to know it, he will begin to hope of it despite dying in a state of infidelity. When we have studied the Holy Prophet's  saying written by Allah Himself   رحمتی سبقت غضبی "My mercy supercedes My Wrath."

Belief is the name of fear and hope. This is such a fear whose last end has hope not disappointment. This such a hope whose last end has fear not negligence. The one who is blessed with such state, deserves congratulations. The cruel Satan either drops us into disappointment or deviates us to negligence. But the Satan is pestered much about the Muslims who never give up repentance and Istighfar in any situation. He makes them commit sins but they get those sins changed into virtues by repenting of those sins. The Satan tells them, "You have grown bad, evil, nasty and dishonest. Now what repentance! Keep committing sins." But Allah's slaves again prostate before Him and begin to weep and cry "O Lord forgive! O Lord forgive!" Then the Satan weeps and repents, "Would that I had not made him commit sins!"

(4) My Prophet  has promised me that He will admit seventy thousand individuals from my Ummah without any accountability and punishment and then seventy thousand with every thousand, three handfuls out of my Lord's handful.

Subhaan Allah! Seventy thousand with every thousand and three handfuls of Allah. This is only to explain. Everybody has handful according to his hand. As bigger one has by hand, his handful will also be bigger. Allah is free of body and similarity. The point to explain is that when a man gets pleased with someone in the world, he gives him handful of wealth. Allah will also admit the individuals of this Ummah without accountability equal to His handfuls. Reading the word Without accountability, the heart moves to ecstasy as, "O Allah, include us also in Your Mercy. There are uncountable favours of Allah on the Ummah of Hazrat Muhammad . The ticket of getting included in this Ummah is لا الہ الا اﷲ محمد رسول اﷲ.

Prayer and Jihaad are proof of the truthfullness of this Kalima that we have really recited the Kalima from the core of our hearts. According to a narration, Allah, on the Day of Judgement, will manifest Himself smiling and will say, "O Muslims, I have driven one Jew or Christian into Fire in lieu of each one of you."

Allah Akbar! This mercy will also be on the members of this Ummah. This is also proved from traditions that so many members of this Ummah will also be driven into the Fire due to their sins. They will undergo punishment there and then enter the Paradise. O Allah, we seek refuge with You against Hell. Mercy, Mercy, O Allah! The Hell is very intense, tough and hard.اَللّٰھُمَّ اَجِرْنَا مِنَ النَّار.

(5) The man who visits Allah in a state that he did not join anyone with Him in the world, all his sins will be absolved though they are equal to the mountains. (Baihaq)

O Muslims, pronounce, لاالہ الا اللہ, No one is like Allah. He is One in His Being. He is One in His Attributes. He is One in obedience to Him. No one is equal to Him. Worship is solely for Him. Living and death is only for Him. Sacrifice is only for Him. He is the Remover of difficulties and Fullfiller of needs. He is the Real Lord. We fear of Him alone. For no one is fear that is for Him. We love Him only. We love none as we love Him. Our hearts and souls are for Him alone. He is Very Kind, Very-Merciful, Very, Very-Merciful.

So many traditions that describe Allah's Attributes come to my mind now. Allah! Allah! Allah! Excelling those traditions are the verses of the Holy Quran which bear the message of hope and mercy. But today, we shall content at it alone. O Muslims, Istighfar is a very great thing. It lifts man from a very low rank to a very high one. It saves man from evil deeds and puts man into good deeds. It changes poor deeds into complete enviable deeds.

Inculcate Allah's mercy in your hearts and make abundant arrangements for Istighafar day and night, morning and evening, sleeping and awake, your collective as well as individual problems will be solved. We shall also be entitled to Allah's mercy if Allah wills.
