Pious Change in New Converts to Islam Ahmadiyyat

SUMMARY
Friday Sermon September 2nd 2011
3
The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) The
purpose of their joining the Movement and
establishing with me a relationship like that of
a disciple is that they should achieve a high
degree of piety and righteousness. No wrongdoing
or mischief should ever come near them. They
should offer the five daily Prayers regularly and
with congregation, and should not lie nor hurt
anyone by their tongues. They should not be
guilty of any kind of vice and should not let
even a thought of mischief, wrongdoing or
transgression pass through their minds. They
should shun every type of sin, offence,
undesirable speech and action, as well as all
egoistic passions and unruly behaviour. They
should become pure-hearted, harmless and meek
servants of God Almighty, and no poisonous germ
should flourish in their beings.
The basic and significant advice that the
Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) gave to those
who took his Baiat was to bring about a pure
change in self, to inculcate a relationship with
God and to try and attain high morals

  • Today Hudhur (aba)
  • presented some incidents about people from
    different racial backgrounds who accepted
    Ahmadiyyat and bring about a revolutionary
    changes in themselves as they
  • shun egotistic wishes
  • progress in following the commandments
  • try to enhance spiritual development
  • Love and fear of God is dominant over love and
    fear of the world in their hearts

 Hudhur said followers of the Promised Messiah
(on whom be peace) try for these matters
A revolutionary change comes about after taking
Baiat among those who understand the
significance of it
Hudhur said the significance of this subject is
that it helps long-term Ahmadis to enhance their
belief. It is also a source of their reformation,
whereas the new comers further progress through it

Friday Sermon September 2nd 2011
Hudhur (aba) prayed that may God make him
continue this with resolve and may those
long-term Ahmadis who show indolence in these
matters realise that after coming into Baiat one
has to discharge ones responsibilities. Without
this, Baiat is only in name and one should
reflect over the efforts the newcomers are making
in bringing about changes.

Hudhur (aba) said indeed the Promised Messiah (on
whom be peace) helped remove these harmful
innovations in religion and taught to only forge
a direct connection with God.
Hudhur said he has mentioned before about a
German new Ahmadi young man that how Ahmadiyyat
had generated patient and forbearance in him.
This was because he had inculcated a connection
with God which enabled him to control his
emotions.
Hudhur related that in the conference for new
Ahmadis a new Ahmadi Imam said that although he
and others were always Muslims but they were
quite unaware of the real teachings of Islam and
Ahmadiyyat had introduced them to the correct
teachings of Islam. He said he used to dispense
amulets and charms beforehand but now knows they
are un-Islamic.
A new Ahmadi who recounts that he used to flare
up in temper very easily and would verbally and
physically abuse his family. Since taking Baiat,
his attention is drawn towards Salat and God has
given him patience and steadfastness.

Another new Ahmadi says that he was used to
alcohol and cigarettes etc. but has left it all
since accepting Ahmadiyyat. He says that if one
is regular in Salat one is drawn away from these
matters.
Hudhur (aba) added that it is sincere Salat that
takes one away from ills, indeed such should be
ones Salat. Even today we find numerous
incidents in the world of Ahmadiyyat where when
man sincerely turns to and connects to God and
becomes a living and shining example of the
Quranic statement that Salat restrains one from
indecency and manifest evil (2946
Friday Sermon September 2nd 2011
Hudhur (aba) said that the fact is every claim
and every prophecy of the Holy Quran is being
fulfilled in this era through those who follow
the teachings of the Promised Messiah (on whom be
peace).

Hudhur (aba) said that they have passion for
Tabligh and thus Jamaat are expanding in these
area.
Ameer sahib Ghana writes about a new convert that
once they had gone for Tabligh purposes to the
Upper East area where a school teacher took his
Baiat. Later, he came to a national Ijtima of
Khuddam with twenty other school teachers whom he
had already converted to Ahmadiyyat.

The young Kyrgyz woman who was a new Ahmadi
indeed declined an apparently good proposal for
the sake of faith. Therein is cause for concern
for those young women who wish to marry outside
the Jamaat and people who wish to do Baiat only
for the sake of marriage
Friday Sermon September 2nd 2011
Hudhur (aba) said some websites create suspicions
in the hearts of those who lack knowledge and the
youngsters. Our youngsters, especially the
teenagers who are provoked through anti-Ahmadiyya
web sites should pray and should not be embroiled
in any complex

Hudhur said the history of Ahmadiyyat is full of
instances where Ahmadis tried to prove their
point in light of the verses of the Holy Quran
and our detractors referred to other matters
Friday Sermon September 2nd 2011

The village people said they had been Muslims for
the past fifteen years but they did not know what
Jummah was!
Benin
In a Tabligh event people were informed about the
Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) and as a
result 166 Baiits were taken. It was decided
that Jummah (Friday Prayer) would be offered
after a day
Anyhow, Friday Prayer took place and a refresher
course regarding worship and Qur'anic teaching
was organised for the newcomers
The Ahmadis of a neighbouring village were asked
to offer Friday Prayer with them, the two
villages had long-standing animosity between them
going back year . Both the villages were advised
that by accepting Ahmadiyyat, they were now as
one, that the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace)
had in fact come to unite people for the
advancement of Islam
This had a positive effect and the two villages
met through Friday Prayers and thus the subject
of Prayer on Friday (6210) was realised. In
such circumstances, not only are old differences
removed, rather the subject of tender among
themselves (4830) begins and feelings of sense
of sacrifice for each other start.

Ameer sahib of Delhi writes that Muhammad
Mursaleen sahib came into the Jamaat in 2008.
Three days after his Baiat he had a detailed
dream in which he saw the Holy Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allah be on him) who asked him to go
to Punjab. Mursaleen sahib went to Qadian, where
he discovered the room which he had seen in his
dream. This strengthened his belief and gave him
peace of mind.

The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) wrote
that in the past century none other than the
Ahmadiyya Community experienced a time which was
on the precepts of Prophethood where people
attained spiritual light as the Companions of the
Prophet attained. Where people endured derision,
abuse and grief of prohibition as the Companions
did. Yet they judiciously continue to attain pure
life, they beseech God in their Salat, weeping
and many have true dreams and some receive
revelations. They are gentle of heart and abide
by true Taqwa. This is the party of God of whom
God Himself is taking care. He draws them closer
through heavenly signs as He drew the Companions.
These people have all the indications of the
latter-ones
Hudhur (aba) prayed that may God increase each
Ahmadi in faith and belief and may our sincere
connection with our Creator continue to grow

Hudhur announced that he would lead funeral
Prayer after Friday Prayer of Khurshid Begum
sahiba who passed away on 27 August. She was the
niece of Babu Qasim Din sahib, a companion of the
Promised Messiah (on whom be peace). May God
elevate her station and grant steadfastness to
the bereaved family.
