The event was chaired by the National Amir UK, Mr Rafiq Hayat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting began with Tilawat-e-Qur\u2019an and translation by Maulana Humayun Uppal, Regional Missionary Islamabad. A Nazm was performed by Mr Mubarak Ahmad. Messrs Moeed Hamid and Ibrahim Ikhlaf then read out the Musleh Maud Prophecy in Urdu and English:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I confer upon thee a Sign of My mercy according to your supplication. I have heard thy entreaties and have honoured thy prayers with my acceptance through My mercy and have blessed this thy journey. A Sign of power, mercy, nearness to Me is bestowed upon thee, a Sign of grace and beneficence is awarded to thee and thou art granted the key of success and victory\u2026..He will be accompanied by grace, which shall arrive with him. He will be characterized with grandeur, greatness and wealth. He will come into the world and will heal many of their disorders through his messianic qualities and through the blessings of the Holy Spirit. He is the Word of Allah for Allah\u2019s mercy and honour has equipped him with the Word of Majesty. He will be extremely intelligent and understanding and will be meek of heart and will be filled with secular and spiritual knowledge.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Behold a light cometh, a light anointed by God with the perfume of His pleasure. We shall pour Our spirit into Him and he will be sheltered under the shadow of God. He will grow rapidly in stature and will be the means of procuring the release of those held in bondage. His fame will spread to the ends of the earth and people will be blessed through him. He will then be raised to his spiritual station in heaven. This is a matter decreed. (Extract of the Announcement 20<sup>th<\/sup> February 1886).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maulana Ataul Mujeeb Rashed gave a speech about the background and significance of the prophecy. Exactly 135 years ago the Promised Messiah received the revelation in 1886. The Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) went to Hoshiarpur and started a 40-day seclusion where he prayed constantly. As a result of this, he was given this glad tiding, that Allah Almighty had decided that the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) would be given a son within a period of 9 years (even though the Promised Messiah had not prayed for a son). This son would be given many special qualities and attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Promised Messiah\u2019s first-born child was actually a daughter who died in 1891, A son was then born in 1887 who died in 1888. Opponents of the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) began to raise objections against him saying his first born was a girl and then that his son has died, therefore this prophecy of a special son would not be fulfilled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) remained steadfast and had strong conviction that this prophecy would be fulfilled. Indeed it was, when another son was born on 12<sup>th<\/sup> January 1889 named Bashiruddin Mahmud Ahmad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How could a man predict that a son would be born with special qualities? This Promised son was a testament of the truth of the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him). We should use this prophecy to help spread the truth of the message of Ahmadiyyat to the whole world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr Adeel Tahir, a young Waqfe Nau Tifl, then gave a short address about the guidance provided to the youth by Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him). Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him) used to pray in Masjid Aqsa, Qadian and it was witnessed by others that he would be sobbing in his prayers, even at a very young age. The Promised Son was only 19 years old when his father passed away. At that time, Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him) stated that he would convey the message of the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) to the four corners of the earth, even if he had to do this single-handedly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once he was playing a game of football. At half time, the scores were level. The Talimul Islam team which included Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him), scored. The scorer fell to the ground in prostration. This showed the devotion to prayers of Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him) and his companions, in all matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A short video clip was then played of an audio from a speech by Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him), in which he stated, God has chosen you (Ahmadis) to spread the message of Islam once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maulana Rana Mashood Ahmed presented a proof of existence the of Allah and the truth of Islam through the prophecy of Hazrat Musleh Maud. Hazrat Musleh Maud\u2019s birth and existence is nothing short of a miracle. It is a true fulfilment of the prophecy. One of the proofs conveyed was through the servant who was employed to look after Hazar Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him). This woman would be so severely ill that at times she had 7-9 children who passed away due to ulcers and tuberculosis. Some passed away at a young age while others passed away at an older age. She started to breastfeed this child without seeking permission from the child\u2019s parents. As a result ulcers, tuberculosis and scrofula bacteria were transmitted to the child. Thus, when the child turned 2 years of age, he developed a cough and ended up contracting scrofula and remained ill for many years. But because Allah Almighty was to manifest a grandeur sign through him, God Almighty saved him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Nazm was performed by Mr Hafeez Ahmad. A short video then shown which updated the audience on the current Baitul Futuh redevelopment. |<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amir Sahib gave some concluding remarks. These events, such as today\u2019s Musleh Maud Day, he said, are part of the training for young children and before COVID, many children would attend our events in person at Mosques. I hope many children are listening today with their parents at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ahmadiyya.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2021\/02\/Amir_Sahib_UK.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-946\" width=\"159\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahmadiyya.uk\/bulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2021\/02\/Amir_Sahib_UK.jpg 399w, https:\/\/ahmadiyya.uk\/bulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2021\/02\/Amir_Sahib_UK-212x300.jpg 212w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him) was elected 2<sup>nd<\/sup> Khalifa at the tender age of 25. This was a difficult time for the Jama\u2019at and some thought he would not be able to lead the Jama\u2019at. But he was not an ordinary person. He was a special person with unique qualities. Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him) laid out 5 important points for a true success in life:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>Seek forgiveness for one\u2019s sins<\/li><li>Always pay attention to worship<\/li><li>Always be thankful to Allah<\/li><li>Enjoin good<\/li><li>Be mindful of the bounties established by Allah Almighty<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Hazrat Musleh Maud (Allah be pleased with him), by establishing the auxiliary organisations in the Jama\u2019at, enabled every single person to contribute to the Jama\u2019at in some way. The auxiliaries provide discipline and training for people. For example, a young Qaid looking after many Khuddam will be a better manager at work when looking after his team members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting concluded with a silent prayer at 5.15pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The audience peaked at 3,200 connections via YouTube, with an estimated 10,000 people watching.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><aside class=\"mashsb-container mashsb-main mashsb-stretched\"><div class=\"mashsb-box\"><div class=\"mashsb-buttons\"><a class=\"mashicon-facebook mash-large mash-nomargin mash-center mashsb-noshadow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fahmadiyya.uk%2Fbulletin%2Fnational-musleh-maud-day-2021%2F\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span><span class=\"text\">Share<\/span><\/a><a class=\"mashicon-twitter mash-large mash-nomargin mash-center mashsb-noshadow\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=&amp;url=https:\/\/ahmadiyya.uk\/bulletin\/national-musleh-maud-day-2021\/\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span><span class=\"text\">Tweet<\/span><\/a><div class=\"onoffswitch mash-large mashsb-noshadow\"><\/div><div class=\"secondary-shares\" style=\"display:none\"><a class=\"mashicon-whatsapp mash-large mash-nomargin mash-center mashsb-noshadow\" href=\"\/\/send?text=%20https%3A%2F%2Fahmadiyya.uk%2Fbulletin%2Fnational-musleh-maud-day-2021%2F\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span><span class=\"text\">Whatsapp<\/span><\/a><a class=\"mashicon-print mash-large mash-nomargin mash-center mashsb-noshadow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.printfriendly.com\/print\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fahmadiyya.uk%2Fbulletin%2Fnational-musleh-maud-day-2021%2F&amp;item=\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span><span class=\"text\">Print<\/span><\/a><a class=\"mashicon-mail mash-large mash-nomargin mash-center mashsb-noshadow\" href=\"mailto:?subject=%20&amp;body=%20https%3A%2F%2Fahmadiyya.uk%2Fbulletin%2Fnational-musleh-maud-day-2021%2F\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span><span class=\"text\">Mail<\/span><\/a><a class=\"mashicon-telegram mash-large mash-nomargin mash-center mashsb-noshadow\" href=\"https:\/\/telegram.me\/share\/url?url=https%3A%2F%2Fahmadiyya.uk%2Fbulletin%2Fnational-musleh-maud-day-2021%2F&amp;text=\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span><span class=\"text\">Telegram<\/span><\/a><div class=\"onoffswitch2 mash-large mashsb-noshadow\" style=\"display:none\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                <div style=\"clear:both\"><\/div><div class=\"mashsb-toggle-container\"><\/div><\/aside>\n            <!-- Share buttons by mashshare.net - Version: 4.0.47-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Report by Dr Abid Ahmad The first ever virtual National Musleh Maud Day took place live on YouTube at 3pm on Saturday 20th February 2021.
