Bribery and  corruption have spread over the all corners of the mortal world. But it  does not mean there is no justice and good deeds; powerful people  ingrate powerless and weak people. Minorities are deprived from their  due rights. Superpowers behave with weak nations tyrannically.<\/p>\n<p>He  indicated towards the birth day of Prophet Jesus, &#8216;Christmas Day&#8217; as  Christians believe, and pointed that prophet Jesus was a great prophet  and welldoer man; but by the name of his birth day and Christmas Day  people commit various sorts of sins and crimes. Even, many kinds of  crimes and vice take place at shrines and graves of some righteous  slaves of Exalted Allah!<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Thus, beloved prophet Mohammad, peace  &amp; blessings be upon him, prayed to Allah: O Allah! Do not make my  grave an idol that is worshipped; Allah cursed Jews and Christians who  made the graves of prophets worship places. Mosques are built for  worshipping Allah not others,&#8217; Mawlana Ismaeelzahi added more.<\/p>\n<p>Deducing  from some verses of the Qur&#8217;an, Shaikh Abdul Hameed mentioned some  wrong beliefs of Jews and Christians saying that Prophet Mohammad, peace  be upon him, did not want to be buried in Jannat-ul-Baqee&#8217;, cemetery of  Medina, to save his grave from worshipping. He was buried in his wife&#8217;s  house so that his grave would be under control. Praise is due to Allah  that his grave is safe from misdeeds and innovations. People only can  send peace, salaam, over there not to worship his grave like some other  righteous&#8217; graves.<\/p>\n<p>Pointing out towards the bad situation of the  world, he underlined that cruelty, blames, lies and numerous kinds of  fitnas have infected the world. Once Holy prophet was mentioning some  riots to be appeared near the Doomsday; meanwhile Ali bin Abitalib, may  Allah be pleased with him, asked about the remedy. He replied that  Kitabullah, Holy Qur&#8217;an, is the only shelter and people can remain safe  by imitation of the Qur&#8217;an.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Holy Qur&#8217;an shows us different  solutions; we must read it and understand its brilliant directions. It  says that taqwa, piety, solves the crises. Holy Qur&#8217;an tells us stories  of previous nations and their fate; we should take lesson and avoid  repeating their mistakes. We should follow Qur&#8217;an&#8217;s teachings properly&#8217;,  the rector of Darululoom Zahedan emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>At the end, Shaikh  called the audience to offer five-time prayers constantly in  congregation. He pointed that if somebody does not offer prayers, in  fact, s\/he oppresses on his\/her own self. You must establish prayers,  particularly Fajr prayers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Khateeb of Ahl-us-Sunnah in Zahedan, Shaikh Abdul Hameed Ismaeelzahi, declared this world a place where &#8220;money,&#8221; &#8220;power&#8221; and &#8220;sins&#8221; are diffused and clarified it that following Shari&#8217;ah is the only redemption in his recent sermon in the Grand Makki mosque.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-speeches"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abdolhamid.net\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
