Chapter 15

Bring Sincerity in Deeds and Words, they are Being Recorded

Preface: In many past topics you studied that Man is exposed to being tested, and Almighty Allah has also emphatically said in many places in the Untouched Qur'an of Islam:

"I may try, which of you is best in conduct." (68:2 Qur'an)

And also,

"Truly, they will be tested on things such as fear, hunger, or harm to wealth, body and natural products (fruits)." (2:155 Qur'an)

And also,

Do people think, they would be let free by just this much acknowledgment to say "We believe" and that they will not be put into furnace of testing?"
(29:2 Qur'an)

The answer is Positive.

There are hundreds of other examples. These examples are conveying this truth to sincere-hearted Muslims, so that they may understand that at all instants and everywhere, in these struggles of ups and downs of life, they are under the control of (Mu'akileen) guardians. These guardians are recording all their motions, words and deeds without the least negligence. They are called Kiram-ul-Katibeen (kind and honorable Angel guardians for recording). This is enlightened in explicit verses of the Glorious Qur'an. Thus, what is a monotheist person and a Muslim required to do?

Yes! There is one way, the person ought to be always attentive of his estates in all acts and words. Thereby, he should let of himself such pictures with excellent secrets and reports to be photographed and recorded, that in the Hereafter, at the Presence of Almighty Lordly Being and presence of all human beings he would not be ashamed of his deeds and attitude in these dreaming scenes of life.

Therefore, it is necessary that one make efforts in promotion of his affairs whether verbal or practical. In summary, in all minor and major matters, he should so actively play his role as similar to movie actor, where the movie actor knows with all his intelligence and understanding that all his appearances are being photographed and will be watched by the spectators. By perceiving this truth, we ought to accomplish our business with full sincerity and excellent ambition filled with especial affection for Happiness of Him Almighty in such a way that we would, with the help of Almighty Allah, astonish most of the observers and inspectors. Similarly, it is necessary for believers to be fully alert in stabilizing the statue of their deeds and words. They ought to excitingly and bravely strive to organize their deeds and words with the necessary honesty, sincerity and devotion. It should be mentioned that the movie of the movie actors are watched by some human beings, however, the movie of life period of each individual descendants of Adam, peace be upon him, decorated with good and evil deeds will be watched by the Great Creator in here as well as in the resurrection day, for the purpose of account taking.

"Awake asleep ought to be with us
So that he may see dreams in wakefulness." Mathnawi

Look at the difference of paths, from where to where. It would be good for you hereby to penetrate still more into understanding the topics explaining this truths.

1. Have you noticed? The world has four monotonous seasons. They are manifested to us by passing and making nights and days. They are preparing, with permission of Almighty Allah, their fixed and prescribed products bound by time and location, for our lives movies to be filmed. These seasons are carrying unknowingly with themselves the invariable activities and revolving operation for the purpose of proving the ultimate good and evil reports of human beings.

2. Have you noticed? It is only Man on the planet of earth whose words and deeds, voices, and jests are being recorded in especial Recorders of his appointed Guardians who are placed in his right and left shoulders. In the Hereafter, this will be given to him as his Record of Deeds, so that he may receive the corresponding rewards or punishments.

Almighty Allah says:

"Read your Record of Deeds, this recorded document of your words and deeds is enough for you." (17:14 Qur'an)

3. Have you noticed? The writers of deeds Kiram-ul-Katibeen are similar to tape-recorder apparatus which records the sentences, or words, but do not know their meanings. The difference being merely that in a tape the good and evil about the talker's sentences are not known, but in that (Record of Deeds) they are separated in such a way that the goodness are written by the Angel Guardian on the right shoulder, and the wickedness by the one on the left shoulder.

4. Have you noticed? How the separation of duration of acts or words of a person for distinguishing the good and evil deeds is done, in those cassettes filled with estates and qualities of circumstances and reports?

Yes! While recording if a bright Light emanated from Heart due to these statements, or acts etc. it means that deed is good, however, if the light is not emanated, then that word or act is corrupt.

5. Have you noticed? While recording words or acts, there appears in tape some kind of ebb and flow, due to acts and words. These ebbs and flows are caused by the radiation of Heart's compassion (Light of Faith). We can say that such acts are better than all other deeds. This has been called by Almighty Allah as Sincerity in deeds.

"Know that Sincerity in allowed deeds (allowed in religion laws) is deserved for Almighty Allah. (39:3 Qur'an)

6. Have you noticed? While accomplishing whatsoever good act or words, its line is definitely connected in that accession to Nucleus of Monotheism of Heart or the Center of Faith. The more sincerity increases in it, namely it is carried out purely for Almighty Allah, proportionally, Angels by observing it, will, by the permission of Allah, double and multiply the reward. Of course, at the end, Almighty Allah will add another excess on it.

7. Have you noticed? Sometimes it happens that Satan by using the opportunity brings corrupt excitements under the name of sincerity in deeds, and makes the persons sentimental. Finally, it results in that good deed either not to be accomplished, or accomplished but with discontentment's. The circumstance harms the Luminosity of Doe's action. For instance, in good deeds, the person may act out of grudge or for the sake of some dispute. Or, sometimes, some people's negligence, forces him in the form of competitions to accomplish that good deed. It needs to be careful for it to be fulfilled purely for the sake of Allah. Otherwise, through the weapon of hypocrisy, Satan would convert it to poisoned and rejected.

8. Have you noticed? If the (Mahad) believer does not succeed accomplishing some good deed, and if the uproar of intention for accomplishing and approaching that action is too much in his Heart, then he is still counted as the Doer of the accepted action, and full recompense will be given to him. Exactly like the person who has actually done that action, he will also be given the reward.

"The intention of believer for good deed is better than the actual action." (Hadeeth)
