The Money Business

RELIGIOUS PRACTICES IN INDIA  

Indian Muslims have created industry. In this industry, they pay money to people to pray for them and even to intercede on their behalf before God.

They do this because they do not know the teachings of the Quran. The prophet Muhammad told us the following:

Chapter al Baqarah, verse 48: Beware of the day when no one can avail another, no intercession will be accepted and no one can be helped. 

But still people will insist that they can ask their saints (aulia) such as Abdul Qadir Jailani, Nagoor "Andavar", auliya, maulavi, hazrat and others to pray for them because these people are "closer to God". About this type of wrong belief, the prophet again told us:

Chapter az Zumar, verse 3:
To God alone is the worship. But those who set up AULIYA besides God say. "We idolize them (the AULIYA) to get closer to God". God will judge between them regarding their disputes. God never guides any liar, disbeliever.

The prophet also gave us the following, Chapter at Taubah, verse 31: "They have taken their ALIMS (teachers) as idols besides God,... "

The prophet's teachings are clear. All these AULIYAS and ALIMS cannot help us. Why? Because of the following verse which God revealed to the prophet:

Chapter al An'aam, verse 94 :
You (this includes Abdul Qadir Jailani and the hazrat) come back to Us as individuals, just as we created you the first time. And you left behind everything that we provided for you. We do not see any of your intercessors that you invented and idolized (like Abdul Qadir Jailani, Nagoor Andavar, hazrat etc). All ties among you are now severed and the idols you invented have disowned you ".

Therefore Abdul Qadir Jailani, Nagoor Andavar, hazrat etc can never help us because they themselves will stand alone before God. So if we keep calling on these people to ask them to pray for us because we think that these people are "closer to God", then God says that we are liars and disbeliveers (Chapter az Zumar, verse 3 above).

  PAYING MONEY TO GO TO HEAVEN

We cannot go to heaven by paying money. But there are people who ask money from us for performing religious services. Although they may not ask directly, there is an understanding in most places that to recite one Chapter Yasin you must pay the imam who reads if it is a "big Imam" then the fees are bigger too!

Any prayer will cost you. This is the unique industry the Indian Muslims have created. God will remember them very closely not just on the Day of Judgement but even today God is already looking at the Indian Muslims with great displeasure.

Is this the reason why many Indian Muslims cannot find any happiness or peace of mind, even though they work hard and keep making money?

What did God tell the prophet about taking money from people?

The answer is in Chapter al Qalam, verse 46: "Do you ask them for money... "

And also in Chapter Saad, verse 86: "Say (O Muhammad), I do not ask you for any money. I am not an imposter".

So all the hazrat and imam who take money from us to perform religious duties are impostors. This is what God and the prophets have said. Please check this in your Quran and compare the verse quoted above.

Religion is not something that has a price. You cannot pay money for someone to read one chapter of the Quran and then feel that you have done your religious duty.

  CHAPTER YASIN

But what will the respected imam say? He will insist on reading Chapter Yasin as funeral prayer of your parents and relatives because it is a source of income for him. You and the hazrat will therefore be going against God and the prophet.

The Indian Muslims are a very intelligent people. And if we only use our intelligence for a while we will find out that Chapter Yasin when translated means:

36:59 And be marked on that day O you guilty.

36:60 Did I not make a covenant with you O children of Adam that you shall not worship the Devil, for he is your ardent enemy.

36:61 That you shall worship Me alone to remain on the right path?

36:62 Indeed he misled many of you, did you not use your intelligence?

36:63 This is the hell that has been promised to you.

36:64 Burn in it today, because of your disbelief.

So the Indian Muslims is paying money for a respected imam to come and recite over their dearly departed that they will burn in Hell because they are disbelievers as they never used their intelligence and that they worshipped the devil!

This is why until today, the prophet's owns descendants in Mecca and Medina never recite chapter Yasin over their dead people. Since now you know the meaning of some of these verse in Chapter Yasin, and if your father or mother has died, will you get much comfort from reciting these words over them? If the dead people could hear these verse, would they not be terrified inside their graves?

Chapter Yasin begins with:
"Ya Sin. By the Quran full of wisdom" (Chapter Yasin, verse I ).

Therefore, just like the whole Quran, Chapter Yasin is full of wisdom. And if we read just a few verse further, God tells us in verses 69 and 70: "We did not teach him (Muhammad) any poetry, nor should be a poet. This is a profound message, a profound Quran. TO WARN THOSE WHO ARE ALIVE and to condemn the disbelievers ".

The Quran is a profound message. That is why God says that it must be read to PEOPLE WHO ARE ALIVE so that they may benefit from the Quran's wisdom. For dead people it is too late.

  EATING FORBIDDEN FOOD

Not only do the Indian Muslims pay their imams money to condemn their dead, they also eat forbidden food prepared in the name of people and not in the name of God.

For 40 days after someone dies, and thereafter, they will have an occasion called the Fathia. (Al- Fathia means the opening chapter of the Quran). In this activity they again recite chapter Yasin. Then they will give food such as fruits and sweets which is specially blessed and then called `jeerni' or `naarsa' in the name) of the dead person. They will say this is `jeerni' or `naarsa' for Mr So & So's 40th day Fatiha.

Similarly the Indian Muslims celebrate the Maulud of Abdul Qadir Jailani, Boorianh Fatiha in memory of Imam Jahabar Sadek etc. In all these Maulud they will serve food cooked specially for this occasion.

They will they will then bless this as Abdul Qadir Jailani maulud rice, Imam Jahabar Sadek fatiha curry etc. Yet in the following verse God says that such food is forbidden.

Chapter al Baqarah, verse 173: "...Forbidden for you are carrion, blood, the meat of pigs and MEAT FROM ANIMALS SACRIFICED IN ANY NAME OTHER THAN God's... "

No doubt the goat or chicken is slaughtered in the name of God but that is only in the beginning. The food is cooked in the name of Abdul Qadir Jailani or Mr So & So .ts `jeerni' or `naarsa', maulud curry etc.

From the last part of Chapter Al Baqarah, verse 173 which, we have quoted above, we cannot "dedicate" food in any name other than God's. If we do this, the food becomes forbidden. Please read the verse again carefully.

  "TANGGAL, ABDUL QADIR JAILANI AND NAGOOR "ANDAVAR".

Definition of Tanggal: A tanggal is a holy man from South India who will cheat you out of money and deliver nothing in return.

Definition of Tanggal's victim: The tanggal's victims are usually rich people with more money than sense.

  HOW DOES THE TANGGAL OPERATE?

The tanggal is always smarter than his victims. He usually comes to them at a time when they are in some difficulty - usually when their business is making losses.

He then pretends to become a religious "management consultant" and starts planning what prayers should be said to make the profits and good fortune come back.

In one case, the Tanggal told his victims that he will stay in their house for as long as necessary and pray until he received a special "sign". After more than one month of eating and drinking free food, free clothes and other things, he suddenly announced that he had received the "signal" that they must all go to Mecca for Pilgrimage. So they all went and of course the Tanggal went along free of charge.

Needless to say, the Tanggal disappeared but the family's problems didn't.

Knowing how the falsely religious people can cheat us of our money, the prophet gave us this warning,

Chapter at Taubah, verse 34: "O you who believe, many holy people cheat the people out of their money, and divert them from the path of God.... "

Please note that this verse is addressed to "O you who believe" i.e. those who submit to God.

However there will still be people who will believe that the Tanggal, the hazrat and other such holy people change their fortune for them. That is why the prophet told us the following:

Chapter al A'raaf, verse 188: Say (O Muhammad) "I have no power to either benefit or harm myself. Only what God wills takes place. Had I known the future, I myself would have increased my wealth, and no harm would have afflicted me. I am no more than a warner and a preacher for those who believe.

So even the prophet cannot benefit or harm us. Compared to prophet, who are the holy people who are say they can bring fortune and money by making magic water, magic black thread, and magic prayer? Please let us use our intelligence in such events.

  NAGOOR ANDAVAR AND ABDUL QADIR JAILANI

To the Indian Muslims, Nagoor Andavar is God. AndaVAR means what? AndaVAN is the name used for God. AndaVAR (which is more polite than AndaVAN) is used for Nagoor Andavar.

So Andavar is greater than Andavan? Needless to say, this type of paganism will invite God's retribution now in this lifetime and in the hereafter.

Not only does Abdul Qadir Jailani have his own maulud, but many wealthy people have been to Abdul Qadir- Jailani's grave in Baghdad, Iraq where they pray for health, happiness and of course money.

No doubt these people are much admired by the other Indian Muslims because while they can only cook rice in Jailani's name, this man has actually been to Jailani's grave. A major achievement!!

Why are the Indian Muslims in such a sad state of affairs? 'The answer again lies in the Quran.

Please see Chapter Al Furqan, verse 30: "The prophet will say, "My Lord, my people have indeed forgotten the Quran ".

This is what the Indian Muslims have done. They have forgotten and gone away from the Quran. They simply do not know what is in the Quran. lt is easier to pay money for some to read from the Quran than to take the trouble to read and understand it themselves!

You must read and understand the Quran. Why?

The answer is in Chapter Yasin:
Chapter Yasin, verse 21: "Follow those who do not ask for any money…."
