Spiritual Gathering Held at Masjide Raza in Navsari, Gujarat
On Saturday morning, May 11th, 2024 a spiritual gathering was held at Masjide Raza in Navsari, Gujarat, to commemorate the esteemed Huzoor Sadrus Shariya Allama Amjad Ali (May Allah bestow His bounty upon him), known for his interpretations of Islamic law. The event was organized under the auspices of the founder of Darul Uloom Anware Raza, the Caliph of Huzoor Tajus Shariya and Huzoor Ashraful Fuqha, Hazrat Allama Molana Gulam Mustafa Sahab Qibla Barkati, drawing a diverse audience seeking spiritual enrichment.
The
program commenced with the melodic recitation of verses from the Holy Quran,
followed by a soul-stirring Naat shareef, filling the atmosphere with a sense
of spiritual serenity and enlightenment.
Mufti Shabbir Ahmad Misbahi Sahab's Address
Hazrat
Allama Mufti Shabbir Ahmad Misbahi Sahab Qibla, the esteemed principal of Darul
Uloom Anware Raza, delivered an enlightening address, emphasizing the
significance of following the footsteps of those whom Allah has bestowed His
favours upon. He stressed that acquiring knowledge alone is insufficient unless
one adheres to the teachings of the Quran and the Sunnah.
Mufti
Shabbir Sahab paid tribute to Huzoor Sadrus Shariya's 18 years of dedicated
service in Bareilly, which resulted in the seminal works of 'Bahare Shariat,' a
renowned book on Islamic jurisprudence (Fiqah), and 'Kanzul Iman,' an accurate
Urdu translation of the Holy Quran. He urged the attendees to train their
bodies and minds to follow the commands of Allah and His Messenger (Peace be
upon him).
Hazrat Allama Sarfaraz Ahmad Azhari Sahab's Discourse
Following
Mufti Sahab Qibla, Hazrat Allama Molana Sarfaraz Ahmad Azhari Sahab Qibla, the
honourable director of this madrasa, inspired the audience with his insightful
words of wisdom. He urged the attendees to rise above their comfort zones and
embrace challenges, reminding them that true success is not achieved overnight
but through consistent effort. He advised the attendees to rise with
enthusiasm, not merely by the call of an alarm, and to respect their teachers.
Drawing an analogy, he likened water's boiling point to the determination
required to achieve one's goals, just as a train reaches its destination
through sustained effort.
Molana
Sarfaraz Sahab emphasized the importance of acquiring knowledge, even if it
means leaving one's home and staying close to teachers, just as Hazrat Imam
Shafi'i did. He urged the attendees not to abandon good deeds out of fear of
ostentation, as sincerity blossoms from such actions. He also stressed the
importance of adhering to the law.
Hazrat Allama Gulam Mustafa Barkati Sahab's Concluding Remarks
Finally,
Hazrat Molana Gulam Mustafa Sahab, the revered founder of Darul Uloom Anware
Raza, graced the gathering with his profound words, reflecting on the
remarkable journey of Huzoor Sadrus Shariya in attaining his esteemed position.
He reminded the attendees that Huzoor Sadrus Shariya will continue to receive
the reward for Hajj until the Day of Resurrection and that his works are
present in libraries worldwide. He encouraged the gathering to seek inspiration
from Huzoor's teachings and strive to become beacons of knowledge and
righteousness.
The
event concluded with a mesmerizing dua (supplication) by Hazrat Allama Gulam
Mustafa Sahab Qibla Barkati and Allama Sarfaraz Ahmad Azhari Sahab Qibla,
followed by the recitation of "Salame Raza." The event left an
indelible mark on the hearts and minds of all those present, instilling a
renewed sense of faith, dedication, and commitment to the path of Islam.
