SAYINGS OF THE PROMISED MESSIAH (as)

"The primary purpose of this Convention is to enable every sincere individual to personally

experience religious benefits; They may enhance their knowledge and - due to their being

blessed and enabled by Allah, The Exalted - their perception [of Allah] may progress.

Among its secondary benefits is that this congregational meeting together will promote mu-

tual introduction among all brothers, and it will strengthen the fraternal ties within this

Community..."

“ It is essential for all those who can afford to undertake the journey, that they must come

to attend this Convention which embodies many blessed objectives. They should disregard

minor inconveniences in the cause of Allah and His prophet (peace be upon him.). Allah

yields reward to the sincere persons at every step of their way, and no labour and hardship,

undertaken in His way, ever goes to waste. I re-emphasize that you must not rank this con-

vention in the same league as other, ordinary, human assemblies. This is a phenomenon that

is based purely on the Divine Help, for propagation of Islam."

Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V (aba)’s Friday Sermon Summary

involved in some difficulty as a result. The

fact of the matter should, of course, have been that they

should have had such relationships as would have permitted

them to ask these questions of their missionaries or the

officeholders of the Jama’at or at the least the officeholders

of their auxiliary organizations - Khuddamul Ahmadiyya or

Lajna Imaillah. This would have led to them increasing their

knowledge and remove any lingering doubts or misunder-

standings. They can of course also write to me, and some

do write to me from abroad, and even from here and they

do so while remaining well within the required levels of

respect and deference due, and their questions are an-

swered also. In any case it also became clear that some of-

ficeholders also do not know the details of what their office

duties demand or require of them and they are not fulfilling

the requirements of their office as they need to be fulfilled.

The things that I am about to say involve one aspect that

has to do with knowledge of our beliefs and principles and

has to do with knowing why we are established on a par-

ticular belief or principle. Similarly when we are told to do

certain things we should know why we are required to do

those things and why the doing of these things is necessary

for an Ahmadi. For example, financial sacrifices to which

we are called, people want to know the details regarding

these matters. Then there are certain aspects of the duties

of officeholders that have to do with the proper execution

of their duties and they need to know how they can carry

out those requirements. They also need to know the extent

of their authority.So I will draw your attention briefly to

these two matters. The first thing that needs to be men-

tioned relates to our beliefs and it is of utmost importance

that an Ahmadi must know this and this is mentioned again

and again but it is not mentioned with that required focus

or it is not mentioned keeping in mind that our own mem-

bers’ training and education requires that this be mentioned

and stated clearly. It is normally assumed that a born

Ahmadi knows these things and knows what is the purpose

for which the Promised Messiah (as) was sent in to the

world and why it is essential that he be accepted. Those

Friday Sermon: Essence of Ahmadiyyat

Delivered by Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad (ayyadahullahu ta‘ala binasrihil-‘aziz), the Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community

on August 16, 2013

After tashhud, ta’awwuz and recitation of Sura Al-Fatiha, Huzoor Aqdas (may Allah strengthen him with His

Mighty Help) said that: A few days ago I had a discussion with an officeholder and it became clear to me that

there are some issues I need to address. These are especially needed for a certain class of our membership.

Then there are also some issues that need to be addressed for the benefit of certain of our officeholders.

All that I have to say is of as great an importance for other Jama’ats worldwide as they are of importance

and significance for the Jama’at here. Also these are very much needed for our new generation of Ahmadis

and for those from among them who are not very active and not mostly involved in the work of the Jama’at.

The issues I will be laying in front of everyone are such as are often not discussed very openly and in full

detail. The missionaries, murabbis and officeholders also do not discuss these things in a manner that they

need to be presented and as a consequence questions arise in the minds of some - but they do not ask

these questions. This is especially the case with the young. They feel that the people or their elders or par-

ents or the officeholders will consider their asking these questions to be something bad or they will become

who join the Jama’at of course know these things because

they enter having read and studied these matters. But those

who, as I said, are not as active and do not participate in the

ijtema’s and do not also come to the Jalsas - and there are

such people in every country where there is a Jama’at,

whether they are small in number or large, but such a group

of people does exist in every country - and it is necessary

that we turn our attention to them with concern and focus.

And for this purpose Majlis Khuddamul Ahmadiyya and Lajna

Imaillah need also to turn their attention and make programs

and do more to address these issues. Similarly the Jama’at

system also needs to pay attention to the needs of such

members and try to reform them and train them instead of

just pushing them aside or ignore them by saying that they

cannot be reformed except, of course, such as say openly

that they have no connection or association with us. But

even about such people, the Jama’at’s mainstream officials

should give their information to the auxiliaries because

sometimes these kinds of statements are made by them be-

cause of the harshness of some senior officials. It is quite

likely that they may heed the approaches made by their

peers or those who are of their age or occupation etc and

so the auxiliaries may be able to reach them and effect a ref-

ormation. Wherever this approach has been adopted we

have seen success by the Grace of Allah. In some places

there are such tarbiyyat secretaries who have developed

programs keeping in mind the particular psychology and

mindset of such people and such programs had a positive and

significant impact and they received very good response from

such members who had become alienated so much. In any

case our efforts need to be to insure that we will try and

save every Ahmadi as far as possible and within our abilities.

This is the responsibility of every officeholder and every mis-

sionary and murabbee and at every level within the Jama’at

and the auxiliary structure of the whole Jama’at - it is every-

one’s responsibility. Please Visit ALISLAM.ORG FOR THE ENTIRE SUMMARY
