SERMON 88


About the Holy Prophet

Allah sent the Prophet when the mission of other
Prophets had stopped and the peoples were in slumber for a long time. Evils were raising
heads, all matters were under disruption and in flames of wars, while the world was devoid
of brightness, and full of open deceitfulness. Its leaves had turned yellow and there was
absence of hope about its fruits. While water had gone underground. The minarets of
guidance had disappeared and signs of destruction had appeared. It was stern to its people
and frowned in the face of its seeker. Its fruit was vice and its food was carcass. Its
inner dress was fear and outer cover was sword.

So take lesson, O' creatures of Allah, and recall
that (evil doing) with which your fathers and brothers are entangled, and for which they
have to account. By my life, your time is not much behind theirs, nor have long periods or
centuries lapsed between you and them, nor are you much distant from when you were in
their loins.

By Allah, whatever the Prophet told them, I am here
telling you the same and whatever you hear today is not different from what they heard
yesterday. The eyes that were opened for them and the hearts that were made for them at
that time, just the same have been given to you at this time. By Allah, you have not been
told anything that they did not know and you have not been given anything which they were
deprived. Certainly you have been afflicted by a calamity (which is like a she-camel)
whose nose-string is moving about and whose strap is loose So in whatever condition these
deceitful people are should not deceive you, because it is just a long shadow whose term
is fixed.
