Excellence of alt-Alan-Nab
The Embodiment of Nr, the Noble Prophet
has said, Reciting alt upon me is Nr (light) on the bridge of
ir. The one who recites alt upon me eighty times on
Friday, his sins of eighty years will be forgiven. (Al-Jmi-u-
* Amre-Al-e-Sunnat ! delivered this speech in the 3-Day Sunna-inspiring congregation
of Dawat-e-Islami, the global non-political movement for propagation of Quran and Sunna, on 27th
Rabi-un-Nr, 1431 A.H. (14-03-2010). It is being published with minor amendments and additions.
[Majlis-e-Maktaba-tul-Madna]
The next day he saw the same little girl crying whilst going to
graveyard. To learn lesson from the graves [i.e. to reflect on the
afterlife] Sayyidun asan Basr also followed her.
Upon reaching the graveyard she embraced the grave of her
father. asan Basr concealed himself behind
bushes. The little girl, weeping, put her cheek on the soil and
said, O beloved father! Without any lamp in the dark and without
anyone to share your grief, how have you spent your first night
in the grave? O beloved father! Yesterday night I lit the lamp
for you at home. Who lit the lamp in the grave last night? O
beloved father! Yesterday night I laid out your bedding at home.
Who laid out your bedding in the grave last night? O beloved
father! Yesterday night I massaged your hands and feet at home.
Who massaged your hands and feet in the grave last night? O
beloved father! Yesterday night I gave you water to drink. Who
gave you water last night when you would have been thirsty? O
beloved father! Yesterday night I spread a shawl over your
body. Who spread it last night? O beloved father! Yesterday
night I wiped the sweat off your face. Who wiped your sweat last
night in the grave? O beloved father! Until yesterday night I would
come whenever you would call out for me. To whom you called
out last night in the grave, and who heard your call and attended to
you? O beloved father! Yesterday night when you were hungry I
presented food to you. Who served you food last night in the grave
when you became hungry? O beloved father! Until yesterday night
I would prepare various types of food for you. Who fetched food
for you in the first night of the grave?

opened inside it, and underneath that apparent heap of soil there
might be a beautiful garden of paradise.
On the other hand, if the one buried underneath similar heap of
soil was such one who had not offered al, had intentionally
missed the fasts of Ramadan, had disturbed worship or sleep of
the Muslims during the nights of Ramadan by playing night
match, had been stingy in paying Zak despite it being Far
(compulsory) on him, had earned arm income, had taken
part in dealings involving interest and bribery, had not paid
back his debts, had drunk alcohol, had been involved in
gambling, had operated alcohol and gambling dens, had hurt the
feelings of Muslims without the requirement of Shara, taken
the money of Muslims by scaring and threatening them,
kidnapped Muslims for ransom, committed theft or robbery,
had been fraudulent with public trusts, unlawfully grabbed the
land, oppressed helpless farmers, oppressed people whilst lost in
seeking power, shaved the beard or trimmed it to less than a fist
length, watched films and dramas, listened to music, habitual of
swearing, told lies, committed backbiting, told tales, committed
slander, thought ill of people and had been arrogant, or disobeyed
his parents, then it is possible that underneath this seemingly
serene heap of soil, he is being in the state of distress, with the
window of Hell open, fire smoldering inside the grave, snakes
and scorpions clinging to his body, and he being screaming
and shouting which we cannot hear.

The old grandfather may be still alive, but the infant grandson
might have embraced death, somebodys adolescent might
have suffered an accident leading to his death, someones
paternal grandmother may have died and been taken away to
the graveyard, and someones maternal grandmother may have
passed away. Just like these relatives of ours who have passed
away, we too will have to leave this world suddenly some day.

Prophet
* himself. He is the one from whom even
the innocent angels would feel shyness. Despite that, he would
remain so frightened of the horrors, the loneliness, and the
darkness of the grave, and on the other hand, it is we who have
completely forgotten our grave. Despite seeing funerals off and
on, we never contemplate that one day our funeral will also take
place. Surely funerals play the role of a silent preacher for us.

all those plans will be destroyed. In this regard it has been said
that a young man from Madina-tul-Auliy, Multan left his
homeland, his city, and his family to settle in a far away country
in his quest for wealth. He would earn a lot of money and send it
to his family members. Based on a mutual agreement, his family
decided to have a splendid mansion built. The young man would
send money year after year and his relatives would have work
done on the construction of the house and its decoration up until
the day when the splendid mansion was completed. When that
young man came back to his home country, preparations to shift
into the magnificent mansion were in full swing, but just a week
before moving into that splendid mansion, the young man passed
away and instead of moving into the splendid and luxurious
mansion, he was shifted into the dark and gloomy grave.

manner in which a wall or a curtain becomes a barrier to the

Madan appearance
The Madan appearance is to keep a beard, to maintain
Zulfayn (the Prophets hairstyle), to put on green turban (the
green colour should not be dark), to wear a white Kurt up to
halfway down the shin in length complying to Sunna with the
sleeves a hand span wide, with Miswak visible on the chest
pocket at the side of the heart, and the lower garment above
the ankles. (If there is also a white Chdar [shawl] over the
head and a brown one to do Parday mayn Parda [veil within
veil acting upon the Madan Inamt] then it is MadinaMadina!) When I see any Islamic brother in the Madan
appearance described above, my heart is overjoyed and it
blossoms like a garden- in fact it becomes garden of Madina!
