The Harms of Facebook

Following instructions of the Khalifatul Masih (aa)

Holy Qur’an - Obedience

[24:55] Say, ‘Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger.’ But if you turn away, then upon him is his burden, and upon you is your burden. And if you obey him, you will be rightly guided. And the messenger is not responsible but for the plain delivery of the Message.

Holy Qur’an - Obedience

Obedience done with sincerity and willingness.

Example of Hadrat Isma’il (as):

O my father, do as thou art commanded! [37:103]

What is Obedience?

If you are obedient, you will be guided to the right path.

Reward of obedience: Khilafat

Why should I be obedient?

The Status of Khilafat

Since no one can live forever, Allah the Exalted ordained that the Añbiya’ , who are the most honourable and the best people of the earth, continue their existence upon the earth by way of reflection. For this purpose, God instituted Khilāfat so that the world should at no time be deprived of the blessings of the nubuwwat. [Shahadatul Qur’an]

The Status of Khilafat

The Holy Prophet (sa) said:

“A person who keeps away from the Jamā‘at a yard, he dies the death of ignorance”.

Importance of Jama‘at

Hadrat Miqdad bin Aswad (ra): O Prophet of Allāh! We will not say what the people of Moses as said that you and your Lord should go and fight, and we will sit here. Instead, we will fight on your right, and on your left. And from your front and from your back.

Hadrat Sa’d bin Rabī‘ ra

Example of the Sahaba (ra)

He follows me in every matter just as the pulse follows the heart beat. And I see that he is like one annihilated in my will.

Example of the Sahaba (ra)

What is expected from us?

You – who are called the Jamā‘at of Masīh Mau‘ūd as – wish to meet the Jamā‘at of the Sahaba should adopt the practice of the Sahaba. If there should be obedience, it should be like theirs. If there should be love and brotherhood, it should be like theirs. Therefore, in every way, in every form, you should adopt the practice of the Sahaba.
