The importance of Da'i is inevitable in shaping our identity as a successful and dynamic community. Our identity is shaped by various factors such as our family, culture, business, relationships, language and beliefs. However, our community or society also plays a significant role in recognizing us among different people and giving us the benefits of its goodwill. It is our Da'i who helps individuals understand their place in the community and provide them with guidance on how to live their lives in the society. Our Dai, helps in recognizing and shaping our identity within the community and society by serving our people without any greed or reward. We thank Allaah Ta'aala for blessing us with Du'aat and A'immat SA, who are a source of our enlightenment and guidance.  It is a misconception to believe that one can live alone in the society without guidance from the Saheb who is superior in spirituality and above all spheres of a Mu'min's life.  Only a Da'i who is divinely guided can guide a community who seeks guidance for righteousness and truthfulness.

Aqaa Maulaa Saiyedna saheb TUS discussed 9 distinguished blessings bestowed upon our last Prophet Muhammad ul Mustafaa SA by Allaah Ta'aala in the majlis of 8th Shab e 'Urs of 44th Da'i e Mutlaq Saiyedna Taiyeb Ziyauddin saheb AQ in Masjid e Nooraani.

1. Nabi saheb was blessed with the Qur'an-e-Paak, the only holy book that has not changed since 1400 years i.e. from the day of revelation till today and will remain the same until the day of Qeyaamat.  Zabar-Zayr will remain as it is.
2. Allaah Ta'aala had blessed Nabi saheb with such a personality that created an extraordinary impression on all living beings within a radius of 10 km, and a heavenly light (in the form of a Noor) would illuminate from his forehead.
3. After fighting battle with enemies of Islam, when they fled, Allaah Ta'aala made their left-over of war (Maal-e-ghanimat) i.e. belongings lawful (halaal) to Nabi saheb, as this has been described in the 10th sipaarah of Qur'an.
4. For every Muslim who accepts Nabi saheb as a Prophet of Allaah Ta'aala, the entire land of the world becomes land for 'ibadaat. A Muslim can pray from anywhere which is pure in the world.
5. Allaah Ta'aala made Walaayat, Roza, Namaaz, Zakaat, Hajj, Jihaad, and Tahaarat purification or paaki in all aspects compulsory for every Muslims as the pillars of the Shari'at of Islam. In the land under the control of Nabi saheb, individuals belonging to other religions were given the option to accept Islam or pay tax if they chose not to convert to Islam.
6. Allaah Ta'aala blessed'Nabi saheb as the Prophet for the Entire World or Humanity, he was made the leader of 1 lakh 24 thousand Ambiyaa and blessed him with laqab of Saiyed ul Ambiyaa wal Mursaleen.
7. Nabi saheb was blessed with a mark of Prophethood on his back i.e. Mohr e Nubuwat.
8. The progeny of Imaams of Nabi saheb came from his daughter Maulaatona Faatemah az-Zahraa AS, and Imaamat would continue until the day of Qeyaamat. The progeny of Imaams i.e. Aal e Mohammad SA would follow till 98 imaams, these imams are compared to the beeds of Tasbeeh-e-Faatemah. And the 99th imaam  would be Maulaana Qaa'im ul Qeyaamah. No other prophet such as Musaa AS, 'Isaa AS, or Ibrahim AS are blessed with such a succession of holy imaams.
9. Nabi saheb was blessed with a Wasi like Maulaa Ali AS who remained his Nafs and Shadow.  No other prophet has a wasi like him as he became the Master of all Awliyaa and Wasiyeen.

Aqaa Maulaa TUS recollected those historic moments when al-Hayy al-Muqaddas Saiyedna Taiyeb Ziyauddin AQ did naseehat when Aqaa Maulaa TUS went for further studies in 1399 AH/1979 AD, while leaving for Mumbai from Devdi Mubaarak that, "O my Son! Remember Khuz Ma Safaa, Da' Ma Kadar, meaning Take what is Pure and Beneficial and Leave which is Wrong and Harmful.  You will have to meet people of different faiths, so be vigilant and choose the path of wisdom and goodness.  Maintain relations with everyone but do what your conscience says and what your intellect orders."

Muqaddas Maulaa used to do following Naseehat in his Bayaan:

We are the community of Two Ali.  One is Shaah e Najaf, Mushkil kushaa Ali (as) and the second is 29th Da'i e Mutlaq Saiyedna Ali (aq).  Both have attained Shahaadat.  We have to remember their message of sacrifice, truth, justice, peace, brotherhood and patience.  Their lives is a path of righteousness true for all ages.

A true mu'min always respect others.  This starts from his childhood, when for him his parents is everything, his tiny world.  The respect grows and he starts believing in mutual cooperation and coexistence.  Mu'min feels that he cannot live alone but with a social support.  Da'i uz Zamaan (tus) teaches him the importance of Khidmat and Ihtiraam.

We, being on the true path, are small in number but not in respect of Faith and Deeds.  Truthfulness is never guaged by the majority but it is always with minority who lives with constant oppression, harassment and enemity metted upon by its powerful rivals.  It is a fact that beautiful and pure things are always small in numbers and less in quantity.  Paradise has been created on Purity and Peacefulness.

Being mu’mineen, we will be tried and examined through shortcomings and calamities, through illness and lack of livelihood.  We have firm trust and faith in the justice of Allaah Ta’aala.  What He orders or what He discards is only for our Good and Peace.  He will never disown us.  He is the one who has granted us Dignity and Distinction over other people.  To get this respect and maintain a sublime status in His eyes we should train ourselves to face the toughest situation in our lives.  The sweetness of this worldly life will turn into a bitter morsel of the hell, if we fail to understand the unstable nature of this devil-driven world.

Looking at the current situation of countrywide Lockdown imposed by the Government to contain the fast spreading Corona Virus the Urs Mubaarak of 44th Da'i e Mutlaq Saiyedna Taiyeb Ziyauddin Saheb AQ was called off for the Mumineen. However, Huzoor e 'Aali TUS after Fajr Namaaz along with Mukaasir Saheb DM, Ra's ul hudood Saheb DM and Shahzaada Saheb visited the Rozah Mubaarakah of Muqaddas Maulaa situated behind Masjid e Nooraani.

Huzoor e 'Aali TUS offered Du'aa for the Mumineen. May Allaah Ta'aala keep us away from the adversity of the deadly Corona Virus.

Aqaa Maulaa presided over the majlis of 2nd ‘Urs Mubaarak of 44th Da'i ul-Mutlaq al-Hayy al-Muqaddas Saiyedna Abu Haatim Taiyeb Ziyauddin saheb (aq) in Nooraani Masjid after Maghrib Namaaz on 4th Sha’baan 1439 AH.  By the farmaan of Saiyedna saheb, Mukaasir Maulaa composed a khusoosi bayt “Maulaa tera Mazaar” in Mazaar e Yusufi while offering Chaadar-Ghilaaf on the Qabr-e-Anwar of Muqaddas Maulaa.  Aqaa Maulaa said in his bayaan that, “Bawaji saheb did 42 years and 18 days of Da’wat e Shareefah and today 3 years have passed since his Intiqaal, we always feel his ruhaani presence and that he is always with us guiding us for pureness and goodness.  He was a person of strong resolve and deep intent.  He always used to say, Be patient, for sure truthfulness will return to you though late.  Everything will happen on its fixed time.  You educate your children with the best of the faculties.  Train your children not to forget their roots.”

On 5th Sha’baan in the majlis of Sadaqallaah, Aqaa Maulaa said that, “If we think that in this Mazaar e Yusufi, we are doing only the ziyaarat of two Maulaa, Nuruddin Maulaa and Ziyauddin saheb then we are on the big mistake.  Da'i is connected with all spiritual figures above him.  Doing ziyaarat of one Da'i is same as doing ziyaarat till Aadam Safiyullaah (as).  This is Sullam un-Najaat, means the staircase towards Salvation.  Here in Vadodara, by doing ziyaarat of a Da'i, we are taking barakaat of Makkah, Madinah, Najaf, Karbalaa, Misr and Yemen.”

Madrasah Taiyebiyah organized a majlis in Shams Hall, behind Nooraani Masjid at 9 am in which children from Ajwa Road also participated.  With Qur’an-khwaani and Qaseedah-khwaani, Mukaasir Maulaa did bayaan regarding the khidmaat of Muqaddas Maulaa and asked different questions to the Madrasah students.  Those who gave correct answers were rewarded with hadiyah. All of them then did ziyaarat of Muqaddas Maulaa. Maa sahebah Umm ul-Mumineen presided the majlis and said that, “O my Children! Don’t ever forget the Ihsaanaat of our Du’aat and always do their ziyaarat.  Our foundation is on truth and ibaadat.”
