Brothers and Sister

Assalam o Alleyykum!

Books stores ILM (knowledge) based on observations and experiments of the universe, which is passed on to generation after generation for the benefit of mankind.

Brothers and Sisters! As Salat is an Essential of Way of Life i.e. Deen e Islam and therefore its knowledge has to be passed on and on until the Day of Resurrection.

Brothers and Sisters! Alhamdu’lillah! As Salat is such a subject that is very vast and thousands of people have written books on this subject.

Brothers and Sisters! As Salat is Haq (Right) of Allah (SWT) that establishes a direct link with Allah when a Mo’min offers Salat. With the passage of time due to the scientific developments the concept of offering Salat has faded away from the hearts and minds of the Muslims.

Brothers and Sisters! The project: Call for Peace made an analysis, with the Toffeeq of Allah (SWT), to look into the causes as to why Muslims do not pay attention to offer Salat while it establishes direct link with Allah (SWT)?

Brothers and Sisters! The mental analysis revealed that the books composed upon the basic beliefs of Islam and otherwise do not take rational element into account where the reader is unable to appreciate imperativeness of the Salat and in turn is not inspired to offer Salat

Brothers and Sisters! Alhamdu’lillah! An effort has been made to take Rational element into account while composing the books upon the basic beliefs of Islam and otherwise. The salient features of the books:

• Namaz: Namaz Insan Ki Zindigi Ka Hissa Kayyun Hai?

[Urdu Language]

• AS SALAT: WHY AS SALAT IS PART OF MANKIND’S LIFE?
  

[English Language]

are as follows:

                 The substance of the book is started with the Origin of the Mankind, his status among the creations of the Universe, and how the ‘enmity’ emerged between Shaitan and Mankind being Ashraf ul Makhlukat (Superior).

Furthermore, the attributes of the ‘Naffas’ (Psyche) are analysed, as how Naffas e Amm’rah (Type of Naffas which inspires to oppose Allah’s Guidance) digresses the human mind, not to follow the Guidance
of Allah.

Therefore, Allah (SWT), being Benefactor and Merciful, bestowed the Mankind with the Gift of Salat to save and protect himself from the inclinations of Shaitan and Naffas e Amm’rah.

               In the subsequent chapters, in a methodical manner, an effort has been made to highlight the Hikmahs of Salat
and its Essentials, supported by the Verses of the Qur’an and Hadith.

        The chapters prior to Conclusion, are considered to be the Introduction of Salat.

In the chapter Conclusion, an effort has been made to stress the Performance of Salat supported by the Verses of the Qur’an, and thereafter, the Warnings, should the mankind does not perform  Salat
what they shall have to face , especially in the life hereafter.

                 The chapter devoted to Message to Mankind, an effort has been made to highlight, how different faiths emerged, and why there was a need to commission ‘Single Prophet’ for the whole world, while, previously the Prophets were commissioned towards the respective vicinities, when the land got occupied by the offspring of Hazrat Adam (PBUH), and the concept of different races emerged due to the climatic effects and impact of the climate of the vicinities.

                 The chapter: Message to Muslims, an effort has been made to highlight the ‘Duty and Responsibility’ of every Muslim, that he is responsible to convey the Message of Deen e Islam to the whole world. And this is not possible, unless the Haqooq Allah (Rights of Allah) are not performed with the sincerity of heart and mind.

                  The Chapter: Message to Non Muslim, an effort has been made to incline them to look for the concept of Salat under the perspective of their own Religions they believe in, which eventually, shall revert them to Deen e Islam.

                 The chapter: Message to Non Believers, an effort has been made to make them understand in a rational manner, that there has to be the Lone Entity who is in control of everything in the Universe, Allah (SWT). And if they do not believe in the Lone Entity of Allah (SWT), then they have to admit that if there is not ONE ALLAH, then there are trillions x trillions x trillions and so on and on and on Ilahs (gods) in the universe.

                 The chapter: Message to Muslim Scholars, an effort has been made to highlight their duty and responsibility, being ‘Heir’ to Khatim ul Anbiyya Hazrat Mohammad (SAW), how they should devote their time and effort to convey the Message, i.e., to Introduce, Revive and Promote Deen e Islam in the world by inflicting the attributes of the Prophet (SAW) in their own Personality and Character, for the Message to be effective.

                  The chapter: Message to Non Muslim Scholars , an effort has been made to highlight the concept of the ‘Last Prophet’, Hazrat Mohammad (SAW), for whom there have been clear forecasts in the Books: Torah and Bible, Zabur, they believe in respectively.

                The chapter: Message to Authorities, an effort has been made to highlight, the importance of the performance of ‘duties and responsibilities’ in an amicable manner to seek Peace and Harmony in this world and the life hereafter.

                  The chapter: Message to Readers, an effort has been made to incline them that they should read each chapter from the point of view that it has been addressed to them, irrespective of the religion they believe in.

                 The chapter: Other Publications, an effort has been made, to highlight the areas, where the literature is required to be published in a manner, which inspires the reader to follow the ‘Guidance’ of Allah (SWT), especially on the concept of ‘Moralism and Independence’, which is the ‘Soul’ of the success in this world and the life hereafter.

The nearest meaning of a Hadith is:

Prophet Mohammad (SAW) said:

I have been commissioned to complete ‘Moralism’.

Brothers and Sisters! I hope, the above outline of the ‘Salient Features’ of the books shall animate the reader, to perform Salat regularly, as Salat is very light, but very Strong tool for the Da’wah of Islam, which has been highlighted in the chapter:  As Salat: Da’wah e Islam.

The sincere Dua’a is to Allah (SWT), bestow us with Toffeeq (Help) to perform Salat regularly with the sincerity of heart and mind, and create the ‘concern’ for the welfare of the Mankind. Ameen Summa Ameen

May Allah be with You

Wass’a’lam
