Khilafat and Mujaddidiyyat — Page 30
30 Hadhrat Hafiz Mirza Nasir Ahmad one has been blessed with the capacities of becoming Siddeeq (truthful) by God through His Grace and Mercy, but he did not pay heed to the religion and instead of becoming Siddeeq (truthful) turned out a thief, then he did not achieve anything. However, if he did not become Siddeeq (truthful) nor even Shaheed (martyr) but he turned out a Saleh (rightoeus), then we would say that his sphere of capaciy was expedient to make him Siddeeq (truthful) but his planning and efforts were not according to that standard. A person’s progress depends on his own efforts, his own zeal and an earnest desire in his heart entreating God to give him all that his coffer could contain. ٌ ﻓﹶﻘِري ﺧَﻴْﺮﹴ ْ ِﻦ ﻣ ﱠ ﺇﹺﻟﹶﻲ َ ﺃﹶﻧﺰَﻟﹾﺖ ﻟِﻤَﺎ ﱢﻲ ﺇﹺﻧ ﱢ َﺏ ﺭ 13 Shower each Khair (goodness) on me you could give to me. God the Exalted knew very well what sort of talents he has bestowed upon him. So, these are the two frontiers limiting within which, man can progress and he cannot outstrip his sphere. Within his own sphere of capacity in accordance to his sacrifice, his sincerity, his love with Allah and ardent love with the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of God be upon him) he can reach the top of his sphere of capacity and capability. And whosoever in this effort and struggle through prayers turning to God with humble and earnest supplications beseech Khair (goodness) from Him and then he gets it, he receives it through the spiritual beneficence of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of God be upon him). And he is the Holy Prophet’s Khalifah and vicegerent to that extent, because onwardly the people benefit from him. 13. The Holy Quran, 28:25
