Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 148 Two Groups of Muslims There are two types of people among the Muslims. One group who does not even know how to recite the Kalimah and from among these are also those concerning whom the Aryas keep making it well known that we have made so many Muslims Aryas. I saw many such men in the mountains that had no knowledge of Islam at all. The second group are those who are considered educated and civilized. They look upon the religion of Islam with disdain. They laugh and mock at the tenets relat- ing to Prayer and say that this Prayer and Fasting pertain to the age of savagery, that these commandments are not appropriate for the present age. Thus, reformation of both these groups is necessary above all, but what reformation can we bring about until it is not implemented from heaven? Those who are ready to listen I speak to happily, but there are some who turn away and do not listen when you say something to them or they veer the conversation in another direction. A poisonous wind of alienation from religion is blowing that has destroyed some, blinded others, and makes others yet lazy. There are only a few who cultivate a relation- ship with Allah. It is essential to prove the existence of God. There are many groups, but atheists are the largest. Divine Grandeur no longer exists at all, but what is there to discuss about Grandeur when belief in the very existence of God no longer remains! The Last Remedy There has been some bloodshed in the days of each Prophet.
