“SAINT OR SINNER”-
What is the difference?
What is the difference?
The essential requisite for sainthood is , Ikhlas (sincerity )and Taqwa(most God fearing). A man whose every facet of the life is not in strict obedience to the Sunnah can
never be a saint even though he perform miracles(karaamaat), walks on water, flies in the
air, transforms base metals into gold, heal the sick etc –(sunniforum) . A lot
of fakes are present today..most of them have something missing by which they
can easily be identified - how would one not well educated identify or
differentiate the real from fake?-disusses---dr fiaz fazili--

-" Evil(Corruption) has appeared on land and sea because of what the hands of men have earned, that He may make them taste a part of that which they have done, in order that they may return." (Holy quran -41)Un-sure,what's more disturbing to many of us ,“We the Peerzadaas ,” A broken trust in the century -old tradition of “PEER MURIDEE”(Saint,Spiritual master -disciple relationship ) -which even our dynasty practiced for many generations as missionaries ,or present sorry state of speechless apology on weak understanding of” Aqeedah -Fundamentals of True Islamic creed-”..Pending conclusions through legal process in religious exploitation and abuse case, every “conscientious ” Valleyite is naturally disturbed on the shocking revelations made by the affected victims- a sad affair of scriptural responses to society's shallow regret on moral decadence. Frankly, many of us are baffled about why people in first instance visit faith healers ignorantly.Fake spiritual gurus in the disguise of saints,babas,faith healers, etc thrive in a community which has not understood the true teachings of their religion . Fortune-seeking followers ,or sduring worldly trials and tribulations when people get frustrated cannot solve problems in spite of their best possible efforts, instead of seeking guidance through the Quran and The Sunnah regarding how to deal they land in despair approach faith healers in desperation.Nothing wrong till they are interacting with correct(aamil) person at correct place. The shocking revelation of victims in such cases anywhere available on social media and u tube reveal the spiritual poverty of the people, providing the opportunity and fertile ground for fraudsters in the guise of fake Saints,gurus or Dervishs to thrive in the name of spiritualism, mysticism,or much revered Sufi cult ..A lot of fakes are present today. Such people use ,tricks like (hypnotism;mesmerism etc) to con the people and make them believe about their supernatural powers.How would one not well educated identify or differentiate the real from fake? A simple criteria is to see Taqwa(God fearfulness) and Ikhlas(sincerity)in strict adherence of shariah and sunnah in his actual practical life style. “The most honorable people among you in the sight of Allah is he who has "Attaqwa" i.e most fearful of Allah's-(Quran 49:13).Prophet Muhammad(SAW) said:I have left among you two matters by holding fast to which, you shall never be misguided: the Book of God and the Sunnah..If Applied correctly these tools.Insha -allah you will never regret in your selection’s,opinions and decisions. Prophet saw said: “…whoever cheats is not one of us.” [Muslim “]. What makes a distinction between one who errs out of ignorance and one who errs despite his knowledge two people can confront the same circumstances -with very different reactions . By the favor of Allah, the Muslim is a guide for others to righteous deeds, whether by his actions or words. He never cheats, deceives or disguises.The shameful acts are beneath him, as they contradict the values of truthfulness.This sorry state of the apology deserve wide condemnation on sad state of gross irresponsibility and/or inexcusable ignorance on the parts of parents, and society’s wrong or right in understanding and education of fundamentals of (Aqeeedah )Islamic creed.How much is too much? Saying that someone is wrong for any Believer should be based on shar'iah evidence, not on personal preferences or dislike.Self-reflection is key – A desire to know is surely a great strength. A hunger to learn is laudable, but the fruit of learning make a person particularly susceptible to the grave sin are not acceptable in any belief.Allah the Almighty has prescribed ordinances, which should not be neglected. He has outlined some limits which should not be contravened and has forbidden some things which he deemed inviolable. Ignorance can’t be a bliss for a believer.It’s darkness and can’t be held as an excuse against our misdeeds.Learning the fundamentals of our faith is obligatory in Islam If a believer doesn't have a correct religious knowledge, the probability that his/her steps may wander aside is high, and he/she easily can be deviated by Satan towards the unlawful forbidden things. But if we are blessed with the light of knowledge we will not stray from the righteous path. We shall also be able to identify and avoid the dangerous paths of Kufr, Shirk and immorality, which may cross our lives. And, whenever a deceptive guide meets us, a few moments of small interaction with him will quickly establish that he is not a guide to be followed. THINGS WHICH PEOPLE SHOULD BE CAUTIOUS OF IN ISLAM ;Devil has many disguises and societies have many nominees for this position.- Ignorance Leads to Danger. Devils, devils, devils, everywhere, yet few are aware of them at all. It would be easy if Satan came as his picture is often portrayed, red wine eyes,tainted face with horns and a pitchfork. We would naturally flee this face. Alas!often he comes cloaked in the deceptive garb of righteous preachers or spiritual healer.,in the end, there can be a wolf under the sheepskin heading. Kudos to the media – Misguided faith healers should face Law of land,. Not to allow any Charlatan in future to exploit the ignorance of any innocence, the Believer has a mission in life – Education on Following The Quran and the Sunnah,the ignorant needs to be taught; the one who has doubts needs to have things explained to him; the negligent person needs to be reminded; and the one who willfully persists in error needs to be warned,or penalized.
