Malf uza t - English translation of Urdu Volume 9 338 them is with God. There is not much mention of the filth and mischief of such people in the Glorious Quran except for indi- cations alone. For example, it is written about such people that they said during the time of our Prophet, may peace and bless- ings of Allah be upon him, to make noise and clap when the Holy Quran was recited, and then regarding some others Allah the Noble says: 1 َواَذِا اوُقَل َنْيِذَّلا اْوُنَمٰا اْۤوُلاَق اَّنَمٰا َواَذِا اْوَلَخ ىٰلِا ْمِهِنْيِطٰيَش اْۤوُلاَق اَّنِا ْمُكَعَم اَمَّنِا ُنْحَن َنْوُءِزْهَتْسُم َواَذِا اوُقَل َنْيِذَّلا اْوُنَمٰا اْۤوُلاَق اَّنَمٰا َواَذِا اْوَلَخ ىٰلِا ْمِهِنْيِطٰيَش اْۤوُلاَق اَّنِا ْمُكَعَم اَمَّنِا ُنْحَن َنْوُءِزْهَتْسُم There were many people around that advised others to go and insincerely take the pledge of allegiance, and to return and then declare, ‘We have observed everything, it is nothing but an enterprise’, and then to become apostates. Then they would present such people who had receded from their Bai‘at, and said, ‘Look, these people have apostatised after their experi- ence. It is only a false movement. ’ Some people acted in the same way with me. First, they came here and took the Bai‘at falsely and after leaving here they published, ‘We have observed everything, there is absolutely nothing there. I also became a follower and concluded that it is all a deception. ’ The foolish do not realize even this much that in the end only that will take place and that will transpire in all circumstances which is the will of God. Observe the omnipo- tence of God that a large staunch Jam a ‘at has been established at the places where there had been greater opposition to us. Our Jam a ‘at is smaller where there has been less opposition. 1. And when they meet those who believe, they say: ‘We believe;’ but when they are alone with their ringleaders, they say: ‘We are certainly with you; we are only mocking’ ( S u rah al-Baqarah, 2:15).
