If You Want Life, Be Prepared For Death

(Amir shehzad khattak, karachi)

May Allah raise all the three Shaheed in degrees! All these three were killed neither in Kashmir, nor Iraq nor in Palestine nor in Afghanistan. Do you know where they were killed? In the biggest city of Pakistan. O yes, Karachi, the war front of Karachi, the slaughter-house of Karachi and the pub of Karachi. Which name should I give to Karachi? Ferocious Karachi or Love-House Karachi? I think, this name Love-House Karachi is correct. Which can be more charming and beautiful thing than martyrdom? If this beautiful celestial wife is gained in Karachi, O the Love-House of Karachi, salutations to you!

Don't harbour doubts, the lookers on, you

Will also see the dead in the garden O cupbearer

Today, exempt me a little please! I have three Shaheed in my mind today, smiling, laughing and captivating. The hand of one of them is caught by a four years old daughter. The innocent Shaheed. She is also delighted at her father's and her own lot and is raising laughter at the ill-luck of her wretched killers. This blooming kid had borrowed only four years from Allah. She was to go to the hostage of Allah catching hand of her father. Forgive me please, I shall write only detracking points when such scenes are in the eyes. No matter, you should also be detracked with me today.

No wonder, these strange talks be granted!

My mad passion remains very vigilant!

The greatest saint of the time, the greatest author and the greatest Juriconsult Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Yousaf Ludhianvi in a big mosque of Karachi held my hand and said with great certainty, "I have pledged an oath of Jihaad not formally but from the core of my heart. You will see, I shall not die in bed but will get killed if Allah wills. Then the world saw that Hazrat Ludhianvi was killed. In the Love-House of Karachi, he founded the "Mausuleum for the Shuhada." Now, there are four more graves of the Shuhada. Our Sheikh Mufti Jameel would say very devotedly, "Death has become dearer than life after the martyrdom of Hazrat Ludhianavi."

You would be anxious to know the names of the Shuhada because there is blessing in the names and description of the martyrs. Allah does not bless everyone with oath on Jihaad and martyrdom. Lo, brighten your eyes with the names of the three martyrs.

(i) Maulana Mudassar: He was martyred in Karachi. After leading prayer, he was near his house that bullet shots of the wretched killers brought the message of love for him. He was a young and unmarried scholar.

(ii) Muhammad Shahzad Khalid: He was martyred in Karachi. His four years old daughter was also martyred with him. Allah be thanked, he was very brave.

(iii) Muhammad Imran: He was also martyred in Karachi. He was an active Mujaahid. He has left behind him a widow and two children. May Allah be their Sustainer and Protector!

The goodness of luck, all these three had only this short life but when their life ended, a new life in place of death started. Their sacred blood will bear fruit by the grace of Allah!.

Those who are brought up in tempests,

They are changing the world.

The colour of the garden is gaining freshness,

The soil and the leaves are getting burnt.

I see the soil rising at the place,

Where the springs are bubbling.

The families of these Shuhada will certainly be grieved but there is auspiciousness, glad tidings and enjoyments for them in it.

Who may tell the adviser this fact,

True love makes grief sweet.

Now love has reached the reach.

Eyes and heart can't have accesses

Oh, wonder, this height of love

Hearts never separate though long beach!

Think a little please, in how lucky age we are living! If the drunkard gains wine in abundance, he thinks it the best age. What can be more intoxicating thing than martyrdom for a Mu'min? Allah be thanked many times, that the wine of martyrdom is in abundance in this age. It is provided in glasses filled to the brim. There have also been times for the Muslims when slavery and helplessness had closed the general doors of martyrdom to a great extent. Now, ponder over the Holy Quran what is martyrdom. By Allah, the heart is upset reciting the verses about martyrdom, "O Allah, do not deprive us of this great blessing." Do visit the battlefield of Badr a little. Do drink the cup of love from the Uhud Mountain. Do study the sweet words of the Shuhada of Bai'r Ma'oona also. Then you will also cry out like me, "This age is really very good. There are pubs everywhere. When we move to the mosque after ablution, the sound of the plane sounds and we are beside ourselves with joy, "Lo brothers, Drone has come. We are going to taste martyrdom. If we go to Kashmir, there are pubs everywhere. If we go to Afghanistan, there are cups of enjoyments. Allah be thanked, now the people of Karachi are also not deprived. Only the eyes must be open, there are springs everywhere.

The eyes opened after drinking wine of love,

There are pubs everywhere I look!

There was a time when holy saints of Allah were upset and anxious for martyrdom. They covered long distances for martyrdom. The holy people begged martyrdom at nights. Now, it is the grace of Allah that the infidels of the time and their agent Hypocrites have acknowledged us Muslims and the best end of a Muslim is martyrdom. The infidelity of the world has prepared ever new types of weapons to bring our martyrdom near. Be happy, O lovers, be happy! The weather is fine, the cups of wine are common and there is intoxication of love everywhere.

The only condition is that everyone gets according to his capacity and power because the cup of love is filled according to the passion of the lover.

My intention was to name today's column:

"There Is Pub Everywhere I Cast Eye"

Then I recalled this call of Jigar Murad Abaadi. He has called in the height of intoxication of love:

"This verse be written on every wall

If you want life, be prepared for death"

O Yes, the one who wants life, will have to prepare himself for death. When a Muslim loves life, he dies. When he loves death, he arises alive. Allah be thanked, the number of the Muslims who love death is increasing. Islam as well as Muslims is arising alive.

"O Love hail to you, O love.

Death's greatness not perceived save you."

Salutations to you O the Martyrs of Karachi! May Allah bless you with high ranks! Salutations to you an oath for Jihaad! Hail to you the sweet colouring of martyrdom. So many congratulations!

"Now words, speech and message of heart end

Now, love itself is our message, our message!"

O martyrs, your love, your red funerals, your smiling faces, all are a message to us. Your caravan, by the grace of Allah, will not stop nor will it forget your blood. Lo, See! All your brothers are looking at you with envious anxious eyes and saying:

"Shahaadat changes in shape of revenge of love,

Be careful, alert, O. the watcher of injuries."

Alas to, the poor Infidels! the Hereafter for them has ruined. Now the world has also become a bed of thorns for them. The dagger of the brave Muslim fighters is hanging over their heads. Rest and peace of mind have gone fare beyond them. All these Islam Infidels are helpless before the heavenly calamities and the onrush attack of the Mujaahideen. Now, their utmost desire is to leave the battlefield and flee away. They also want to purchase the Hypocrites from among the Muslims to make them fight the Mujaahideen. This conspiracy of theirs will fail by the grace of Allah. I say plainly to the killers of my three Shuhada:

"When oppressors teased the peace-loving, the cup bearer said sarcastically, "The short-tempered do not know the greatness of others. You are happy at having; I am happy at not having, the easy tasks and the cheap visits.

You are content with beach, you know not

Waves arise from the beach, silent are tempest also.

This blood of the oppressed will not go waste but

How many sacred drops cause spring flow.

Those who live for truth, Jigar, do not fear death

When time of Shahaadat comes, the hearts dance in bosoms."

O yes, no one should be in delusion because many tempest are silent, many lightenings are soundless. The people who nourish enmity against those who live and die for Allah, make Allah their enemy.

اللھم صل علیٰ سیدنا ومولانا محمد وعلیٰٰ آلہ وصحبہ وبارک وسلم تسلیما کثیرا کثیرا
