TIME TO AUDIT Your Balance Sheet of Deeds.

                                                     Time To Audit Your Balance Sheet

Keep Your Scale
Of Good Deeds Heavy
To Attain Salvation


(M. Javed Naseem)



"And those whose scales are heavy
(with good deeds), it is they
who are the successful."
(al-Quran 23:102)


Allah has drawn the line between winners and losers; and success and failure. Believers with good deeds, who follow and promote the Truth and Patient Perseverance, are the winners or the successful. Everybody else is a loser!

Man is a social animal who cannot live alone – by himself. He needs others and that makes us a community and a society. It is up to us if we want to make it a material society or balance it with spiritual and sentimental feelings. For that, the rules and regulations have been laid out. There are man-made rules and then there are God-made rules or laws that the Almighty Creator has conveyed to us through His Messengers or the Prophets. While a man judges other people’s success on material wealth, the Almighty has declared His own criterion. God judges us on the scale of righteousness or piety and commands us to do the same.

If we look around, we find evil and misery everywhere. Man is not happy with what he's got, so he tries to amass as much wealth, property or material things as possible. We have forgotten that this world is a test for us. This is an opportunity to work on our next life in the Hereafter which is everlasting. We commit sins and crimes, without any regret. And then we don't repent or ask Allah for forgiveness. This attitude merits punishment.

"Evil has become rife on the land and at sea
because of men's deeds; so He (Allāh) may
let them taste part of what they have done that
perhaps they will turn back (from evil)."
(al-Quran 30:41)


The Word of God, the Holy Quran, tells us what is liked by our Creator and what merits God's punishment. We all commit sins but those sinners are better in the eyes of Allah who repent and beg for Allah's forgiveness and mercy. That's the way to move forward. Allah the Most Merciful never closes the door of mercy. It's up to us how we benefit from it.

Say, "O My servants who have transgressed
against themselves [by sinning], do not despair
of the mercy of Allāh. Indeed, Allāh forgives
all sins.1 Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving,
the Merciful."
(al-Quran 39:53)

In today’s material world, success is measured with money. Anybody who is wealthy and who owns buildings, is considered ‘successful’ while the poor are labeled as losers or failures. Money is the yardstick used to measure people’s success. But, as they say, money is not everything. And it is true too. You can buy a lot of things with money and make your life more comfortable with wealth, but the true wealth is not measured with the yardstick of money or material. You righteousness, your love, your sincerity, your honesty, your wisdom, your knowledge and your sense of justice are a lot more valuable than money.


At the end of the day, it is your good conduct or righteousness or piety that counts. Allah loves righteousness and rewards it with mercy, blessings and forgiveness. That's the way which leads us to Paradise and protects us from the Hellfire.

BRIBERY & CORRUPTION: "We Must Put That Down With An Iron Hand." -- M.A. Jinnah

 Bribery & Corruption
"We must put that down
with an iron hand!"
– M. A. Jinnah


(M. Javed Naseem)



******************************************

“You have to stand guard over the development
and maintenance of Islamic democracy, Islamic
social justice and the equality of mankind
in your own native soil.”
-- Quaid-e-Azam

******************************************

 25th of December is around and the entire Christian world is celebrating Christmas, the birth anniversary of Jesus, the son of Mary. 25th of December is also the birth anniversary of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the founding father of Pakistan, affectionately known as the “Quaid-e-Azam” – the Great Leader. On this occasion, I would like to share with you excerpts from the speech of M.A. Jinnah that he made while addressing the Constitutional Assembly of Pakistan, on 11th August, 1947.

It’s time to reflect and ponder over what we have achieved and what we have lost. We made a good start but after two decades corruption infiltrated and the corrupt, infidel and power-hungry politicians took control of the country. 75 years later, we are still living on empty promises and false hopes.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah was not a prophet but he did show the world his miracle. He single-handedly carved Pakistan out of the world map – a homeland for millions of Muslims of India. And that also happened with the Divine support as many Mullahs of India opposed him for one reason or the other. But most Muslims adored him and were so impressed that, out of love and respect, they called him “Quaid-e-Azam” (the great leader), and justly so!

*****************************************
“I should like to give a warning to the landlords
and capitalists who have flourished at our expense
by a system which is so vicious, which is so wicked
and which makes them so selfish that it is difficult
to reason with them. The exploitation of the masses
has gone into their blood. They have forgotten
the lessons of Islam.”
-- Quaid-e-Azam
*****************************************


Mohammad Ali Jinnah was the man who made the British Empire to respect him and give him his due. He said: “Failure is a word unknown to me.” Here’s Mr. Jinnah's presidential address to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, on August 11, 1947.

“You will no doubt agree with me that the first duty of a government is to maintain law and order, so that the life, property and religious beliefs of its subjects are fully protected by the State.”

“The second thing that occurs to me is this: One of the biggest curses from which India is suffering - I do not say that other countries are free from it, but, I think our condition is much worse - is bribery and corruption. That really is a poison. We must put that down with an iron hand and I hope that you will take adequate measures as soon as it is possible for this Assembly to do so.”

**********************************
“Brotherhood, equality, and fraternity of
man – these are all the basic points of our
religion, culture and civilization and we
fought for Pakistan because there was a
danger of the denial of these human
rights in the Subcontinent.”

**********************************


“Black-marketing is another curse. Well, I know that black-marketeers are frequently caught and punished. Judicial sentences are passed or sometimes fines only are imposed. Now you have to tackle this monster, which today is a colossal crime against society, in our distressed conditions, when we constantly face shortage of food and other essential commodities of life. A citizen who does black-marketing commits, I think, a greater crime than the biggest and most grievous of crimes. These black-marketeers are really knowing, intelligent and ordinarily responsible people, and when they indulge in black-marketing, I think they ought to be very severely punished, because the entire system of control and regulation of foodstuffs and essential commodities, and cause wholesale starvation and want and even death.”

“The next thing that strikes me is this: Here again it is a legacy which has been passed on to us. Along with many other things, good and bad, has arrived this great evil, the evil of nepotism and jobbery. I want to make it quite clear that I shall never tolerate any kind of jobbery, nepotism or any any influence directly of indirectly brought to bear upon me. Whenever I will find that such a practice is in vogue or is continuing anywhere, low or high, I shall certainly not countenance it.”



“You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place or worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed that has nothing to do with the business of the State.”

“I shall always be guided by the principles of justice and fairplay without any, as is put in the political language, prejudice or ill-will, in other words, partiality or favoritism. My guiding principle will be justice and complete impartiality, and I am sure that with your support and co-operation, I can look forward to Pakistan becoming one of the greatest nations of the world.”

PURPOSE OF OUR LIFE: Serve The Lord Creator As Faithful & Sincere Slaves.

What’s The Purpose of Your Life?
Serve Your Lord Creator
As A Faithful And
Sincere Slave!

He Sent You A Message
Telling You What To Do
In This World. Did You
Understand The Message?

(M. Javed Naseem)


“We have revealed for you (O men!)
a Book in which is a Message for you!
Will you not then understand?”
(al-Quran 21:10)


Have you ever asked yourself: “What’s the purpose of my life here?” And if you did, what answer did you get from your heart or from your conscience? Our life in this world has a purpose and it is up to us to figure it out. The Almighty has given us a lot of freedom, liberty and choice of action. On the Day of Judgment, we'll answer questions about those choices we made here.

You are the most beautiful, wonderful and magnificent creation of Allah, the Supreme Creator. The sole purpose of your temporary life on this planet Earth is to glorify your Lord Creator Who is the Cherisher, the Sustainer and Most Merciful Beneficent. Simply put: Allah is your Master and you are His slave. Therefore, do your duty and serve your Master faithfully! That is the purpose of your being here. Everything else is bullshit, manufactured to fool you and interpreted to manipulate you.

The Supreme Creator (Allah) has mentioned the purpose of your creation in the Quran, chapter 51 (Surah ad-Dhaariyat), verse 56, as follows:

“I have only created Jinns and men,
that they may serve Me.”
(al-Quran 51:56)


And do we know how to serve Allah? Well, obey His commands (detailed in the Quran) the way Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) showed us to obey! If we follow the Prophet (s.a.w.) as a role-model in every respect, we’ll never go astray. Some people have translated and interpreted the above Quranic verse as:

“I have only created Jinns and men
so that they worship Me”.


This translation or interpretation is only partially correct. Serving Allah is a very comprehensive term as compared to worshiping Allah. Worship is a small part of serving Allah. ‘Serving’ Allah encompasses every aspect of life on this planet whereas ‘worshiping’ covers only one part – the rituals and prayers pertaining to Allah.

**********************************
The purpose of your life is to please your
Creator – the Lord God by obeying Him.
For your good performance, the Supreme
Creator will award you the coveted
prize – the Paradise (Jannah).

**********************************

 
In the Quran, there are hundreds of commands from Allah that don’t form part of the ‘worship’ commands. They cover other aspects like family life, duties of a husband or a wife; inheritance, education, treatment of others and especially neighbors, the orphans, the widows, the poor; how to conduct; how to talk; what to eat; how to maintain peace; how to curb evil; etc., etc. These are called the ‘Rights of People’ (Huqooq-ul Ibad). And then comes the other part (the ‘worship’ part) the commands of which cover Tawheed, Salaat and Zikr (Dhikr), Zakat, fasting in Ramadan, praying at night, Hajj and Umrah, etc. These worship commands can easily be distinguished from other commands. This second part is called ‘Rights of Allah’ (Huqooq-u-Allah).

******************************************
Islam is ‘to surrender or submit unconditionally
to the Will of God’. Only the honest and sincere
submission to our Lord Creator can protect us
from the raging Hellfire, nothing else!

******************************************

 
Allah has sent us a Message and He is asking us if we understood it (if we know what to do). Logically, when you are given a message, you first read it, fully understand it and then try to implement it. A normal course!

Now, we have the Message (the Quran) in our hands. Have we read it? Yes, many times. Some people even finish it three times during the month of Ramadan. And they are very happy that they would get the reward (Sawaab or Hasanah) for reciting it. But the question Allah asked us, still remains unanswered: Did we understand the Message? The true answer is ‘NO’; more than 90% did not understand it or did not bother to act upon (implement) it. So what’s the purpose?

It’s our obligation that we understand and implement the Message of our Lord Creator otherwise we’ll end up as losers, both in this world and in the Hereafter. Let me make one thing clear here! Reading the Quran (without understanding it and without implementing it) just for Sawaab or Hasanah is not enough. It’s not going to protect us from the Hellfire if we don’t do what Allah tells us to do! In His Message (the Quran), Allah talks to us; gives us the commands to do certain things and forbids us certain things. If we do (obey) that, we are declared ‘successful’ but if we fail to do that, we end up as losers in both worlds. Simple as that!

Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) was the Messenger of God and he brought us Allah’s Message – the Quran, also called the ‘Book’. In the beginning of the Quran (actually in Surah al-Baqara), Allah says:

“This is the Book; in it is guidance sure,
without doubt, to those who fear Allah.”
(al-Quran 2:2)


In other words, this is the message in which there is definite guidance and which, without any doubt, shall guide those believers who fear Allah (or are mindful of Allah). Now, who are those people? The answer is in the next two verses:

“Who believe in the Unseen, are steadfast in prayer,
and spend out of what We have provided for them.”
(al-Quran 2:3)

“And who believe in the Revelation sent to you,
and sent before your time, and (in their hearts)
have the assurance of the Hereafter.”
(al-Quran 2:4)


Very clear explanation! Those are the people who believe in the Unseen One God and angels; people who are steadfast in their worship of Allah (prayers and remembrance); who spend regularly in charity from the bounties of Allah; who believe in the Quran (the Divine Message) sent to Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) and other Messages (Scriptures) revealed to earlier Prophets and Messengers; and who definitely believe in the life after death (the Hereafter). This is the Message of Allah in a nutshell. And this is also precisely the definition of Faith (Iman).
And if you are the person who does all of the above, you are then rightly guided and Allah gives you the good news of success and prosperity:

“They are on (true) guidance, from their Lord,
and it is them who will prosper.”
(al-Quran 2:2-5)


On the other hand, if we fail to understand and implement the Message, we’ll be punished. Allah has warned us clearly at many places in the Quran. Allah does not like disobedience and rebellion from His servants/slaves.



Allah’s Message is very clear. You don’t need any middle-man (a Mullah, Maulvi or a scholar) to understand the commands of Allah. Read the Quran with translation in your own language again and again! And you’ll be guided. Guaranteed! Only implementing (applying it to our lives) of the Quran can guarantee us protection from Hellfire. So, study it well and try to live by that!

HYPOCRITES CONTROL OUR WORLD, Trample Human Rights & Bring Misery

 Hypocrites Control Our World,
Trample Human Rights &
Bring Misery To Mankind

Covid and Ukraine have
exposed the lies and deceptions
of the Evil Empire

(M. Javed Naseem)

 


“The hypocrites will be in the lowest depths of
the Hellfire; no helper will you find for them.”
(al-Quran 4:145)


The Hypocrites and Bigots have taken control of our world and are trying to run our lives. They have enslaved us and are constantly trying to curtail our civil liberties day by day. Every month, there are new regulations and people are being forced, illegally, to follow those regulations. Those regulations and conditions are not 'laws' as no Parliament of any country in the world has ever approved them as 'laws' making them mandatory or obligatory.

*****************************
People feel that they are being ruled
by the Fascists and Nazis; and have
no freedom. They are told to get used
to it as this is the 'new norm'.

*****************************

The worst part is that the countries that are imposing those conditions and regulations upon the world population, are practicing fascism but are beating the drums of democracy. They talk of human rights but are committing crimes against humanity. They are controlling the media with the result that you cannot even raise your voice against injustice, discrimination, unfair treatment, bias and racism. Opposition is being crushed; difference of opinion is not allowed and is censured even on social media. People feel that they are being ruled by the Nazis or by some Fascist regime.

The Evil Empire, which is enjoying hegemony of the world, crushes every voice that is raised for justice, fairplay and real democracy. They are promoting unipolar world with one government and enforcing the notion by bombs and bullets, death & destruction and illegal wars/invasions. The individual governments of all countries of the world are pressured to accept their orders or face the consequences (sanctions). But they themselves can break all rules, international laws and human rights charter without any penalty or sanctions. The entire world is being turned into labor camps or jails.

Soon you won't be allowed to have money in the banks. They are going to introduce digital currency and they will control your accounts or possessions. You won't be allowed to travel freely, as and when/where you want to. You'll lose your property one way or the other. They have already declared in the press that "you won't own anything but you'll be happy!"

All 'white' governments of the world (EU, UK, Canada, Australia) have gladly submitted to the will of the Evil Empire (the Zionist USA+Israel) and have accepted political/financial slavery. That's the only way for them to get their share of the pie. They are a club of hypocrites. The problem is that all governments in Asia, Africa, Latin America, especially the governments in the Muslim Middle East have also surrendered unconditionally to the Evil Empire. They are bringing misery and chaos to their own people but that way they can stay in power. They cannot afford to annoy the Evil Empire. That means, the entire world has submitted to the Big Devil. Only those puppet rulers can survive who please their master -- the Evil Empire.

“Allah has promised the hypocrites men
and women, and the rejecters of Faith,
the fire of Hell. Therein shall they dwell.
Sufficient is it for them. For them is the curse
of Allah, and an enduring punishment.”
(al-Quran 9:68)


Unfortunately, there is no leadership in the Muslim world. There are only puppets and slaves who can sell their mothers or motherlands for a few thousand dollars, to please their evil masters. This is the height of hypocricy (Munafiqat). And Allah hates hypocrisy. He tells us in the Quran:

“O you who believe! Why do you SAY that
which you don't DO? It is most hateful in
the sight of Allah that you SAY what
you do not DO.”
(al-Quran 61: 2-3)


Muslim leaders of today are not Muslims in the true sense. They are plain hypocrites (Munafiqeen). They are corrupt, crooks and are playing puppets in the hands of their colonial masters just to stay in power. They are responsible for bringing misery, destruction, bloodshed and civil wars in many Muslim countries. They are helping the Zionists to destroy Muslim countries. Their pay-back time will be coming soon. The Quran says:

“The hypocrites, men and women, (have an
understanding) with each other. They enjoin evil,
and forbid what is just, and are close with their
hands. They have forgotten Allah; so He has
forgotten them too. Verily, the hypocrites
are rebellious and perverse.”
(al-Quran 9:67)


The Bible says:
“But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God — having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people!” -- (2-Timothy 3:1-5).




We are living in those times. The world is going through the crisis after crisis. There is chaos everywhere. There is no peace, no justice. Might is right. Only the rich and the powerful are enjoying life; everybody else is suffering and trying to survive. Corruption has become the way of life. Everybody is lying and deceiving others, just like the Evil Empire. But Allah the Almighty has warned the believers about hypocrisy.

“And that He may punish the hypocrites, men
and women, and the Polytheists men and women,
who imagine an evil opinion of Allah. On them is
a round of Evil. The wrath of Allah is on them.
He has cursed them and got Hell ready for them;
and evil is it for a destination.”
(al-Quran 48:6)

THE EVIL EMPIRE Brings Death & Destruction To Those Who Don't Submit.

 The Evil Empire Brings
Death & Destruction To
Those Who Don't Submit

1% Are Oppressing
The 99% For Hegemony

(M. Javed Naseem)



Another year is almost gone! For the poor Palestinians, Syrians, Libyans, Kashmiris and the Iraqis, another year of injustice, oppression, aggression, bloodshed, cold-blooded murder of innocent children and women is coming to an end. Another year of death, destruction and devastation is passed but there is no end to their misery in sight. The world, the so-called ‘civilized’ world, has become a silent spectator to the apartheid, the injustice and the inhuman treatment of the Muslims in their own countries by the Zionists. This is the height of injustice!

The so-called ‘champions’ of human rights are violating human rights of weaker nations; and the champions of democracy are trampling the democratic values by using their veto power to suppress the voice of the majority. Democracy has become the ‘might is right’! What a shameless hypocrisy! You deny the majority of the people of the world their rights and claim to be exercising your own democratic right? What a joke!

Man has become evil. Greed turns him into a beast and he loses sense of logic, reason, dignity and justice. He wants to serve his own interest, no matter what. But there is always an end to everything. Anything that goes up, comes down. That’s the law of Nature. History of the world tells us that when Man is unable to thwart evil and deliver justice to the victims of aggression and oppression, God intervenes and delivers justice. The helpless poor victims of Palestine, Syria, Libya, Iraq, Kashmir, Somalia and Africa are all waiting for that now. And it can come anytime! God! Help us all, please!




The poor helpless victims of the weaker nations can’t do much against the oppression and aggression of the rich and powerful. Their own leaders sold them out. They are told to be patient, therefore, they are waiting patiently. How things would change, no one knows. But there’s hope and everybody is clinging to it.

The pious and the righteous tell us that this is a big trial for the righteous and we have to pass through it with patience and prayer. The real life – the permanent life – is in the Hereafter. This worldly life is a temporary game show. It is easy to believe this but very hard and difficult to endure! Muslims can get the consolation from the Quran:

“Say: Short is the enjoyment of this world.
The Hereafter is the best for those who do
right. Never will you be dealt with unjustly
in the very least!”
(al-Quran 4:77)


The tyrants, the aggressors and the oppressors don’t care about the Torah, the Bible or the Quran. They don’t even fear God because God allowed them for a very long time to continue their evil works. Some of them don’t even believe that they are doing something wrong. But God gave them a long leash – enough time to change their ways, repent and rectify the situation by bringing justice and peace back into people’s lives. If the tyrants and oppressors of mankind don't budge, God knows well how to bend them, even break them. The arrogant should know the history of the earlier nations that were destroyed because they resorted to evil-doing and did not stop or repent. Here's the promise of Allah:

“So, by your Lord, without doubt, We shall
assemble them together, and (also) the Evil Ones
(the Devils); then shall We bring them forth on
their knees round about Hell. Then shall We
certainly drag out from every sect all those
who were worst in obstinate rebellion against
(Allah), the Most Gracious. And certainly
We know best those who are most worthy
of being burned therein.”
(al-Quran 19:68-70)




The trouble-makers are under the strong influence of the Devil. But they don’t realize that one day, the Devil is going to abandon them and they’ll have to face the music alone. The Devil (Shaitan) was once close to God and used to hang out with angels in the Heaven. He knows very well the justice system of the Divine. Therefore, he’ll keep himself clear of any responsibility for misleading or misguiding human beings. He would say: ‘I didn’t force you to do evil. I just talked but you did the actions. You made your own choices!’ Can you imagine that Devil fears God and acknowledges His severe punishment but we humans don’t!

“And (remember) when Shaitan (Satan) made
their (evil) deeds seem fair to them and said,
"No one of mankind can overcome you this Day
(of the battle of Badr) and verily, I am near to
you." But when the two forces came in sight
of each other, he ran away and said "Verily,
I have nothing to do with you. Verily! I see
what you see not. Lo! I fear Allah for
Allah is Severe in punishment."
(al-Quran 8:48)
