VISIT OF HAZRAT MUHYI-UD-DIN

MUNIR AHMAD AZIM
TO RÉUNION ISLAND

FROM 5TH AU 11TH AVRIL 2006

IN THE TIMES OF

JAMAAT AHMADIYYA AL MOUSLEMEEN

Hazrat Amiroul Mo'meneen Mohyiuddin Munir Ahmad Azim accompanied by his family members went to Reunion Island from 5th to 11th April 2006 to propagate the message of Islam.

As soon as they checked at their hotel ‘Saint Denis' several members of the Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen came to visit them.

On April 6, 2006 , Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din met with some members of the Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen of Morocco who were on the island on a professional visit. They gave him all the official documents concerning the registration of the Djama'at in Morocco. Moreover, after a long conversation charged with emotion, they gave him the will (in French and Arabic) of an old pious person who, before his death in January 2006, bequeathed to Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen a part of his properties. At the same time in the will he mentions the extraordinary signs and dreams which he has seen in favor of the divine manifestation in the person of Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din Munir Ahmad Azim and Hazrat Amiroul Momeneen Zafrullah Domun of Mauritius.

May Allah honour him in the other world ( Akhérat ) and bless him with a place in Jannat-ul-Firdos . (Amîn)

The members of the Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen of Morocco seized the opportunity of their visit to the island to meet Hazrat Amir' oul Momeneen Muhyi-ud-Din Munir Ahmad Azim in person and to show their love, respect and devotion for Islam, the Muhyi-ud-Din of this era and for the Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen. All praise belongs to Allah ( Alhamdolillah, Soumma Alhamdolillah ), the Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen was officially registered in Morocco. The number of adherents is constantly increasing despite the difficulties encountered.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY IN REUNION ISLAND

On the same day, in the afternoon the members of Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen of Réunion Island held their first General Assembly where more than 30 members were present in order to elect the executive members of the Djama'at. The elections and the decision to choose the center for the Jama'at were held in the presence of the Muhyi-ud-Din, Hazrat Amir' oul Momeneen Munir Ahmad Azim. All the documents were presented at the registrar (“La Prefecture”) and all praise belongs to Allah ( Alhamdolillah ) the Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen was officially registered in Reunion Island . Later on some other members took the oath of allegiance ( Baiat ) with Hazrat Amir' oul Momeneen Muhyi-ud-Din Munir Ahmad Azim.

FRIDAY SERMON IN “QOUWWATOUL ISLAM” MOSQUE

On Friday April 7, 2006 , the Spiritual Head of the Jama'at Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen delivered his sermon at the Mosque "Qouwwatoul Islam" of Sainte Clotilde and here is a summary of what he said:

After reading the chapter Al Fatiha , Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din Munir Ahmad Azim recited the following verses of the Holy Quran:

"We placed what there is on the earth to embellish it, in order to test (men and in order to know) which of them are the best in their actions" (Chapter 18, V.8)

"You dissipated your excellent (goods) and you enjoyed it fully during your life on earth..." (Chapter 46, V.21)

In the light of these two verses which I have just read, you will agree with me that "THIS WORLD IS A TRAP".

Living in this modern world can be compared with a walk in the forest. At first glance, all appears marvelous, exciting... It is an adventure! One is confident, enthusiastic, avid to discover this pleasant and unknown universe; one advances with a confident step, determined, ready to face all the dangers, unaware... and, without even realizing it, one ends up finding oneself in the centre of this forest, alone, subject to panic , suddenly conscious of the situation. This endeavor which at first seemed inoffensive, appearing as an enthralling and pleasant walk, now appears extremely perilous. Anything can happen. One can be misled and lose one's path, be victim of attacks, or be wounded...

But there is no question of losing one's calm and despair. The intelligent walker has inevitably equipped himself with a plan before leaving. He pulls himself up and all becomes clear again. He has only to follow this plan to get out of this bad situation; thus he will avoid the traps and the obstacles. He will arrive at his destination and once he has found his way he will be serene again.

This traveler is man and the forest represents the life of this world. His plan is the Holy Quran and the practices ( Sounnah) of our beloved Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w). To abide by these is the only guarantee to escape the thousand dangers of the forest. To forget these two, to ignore them, is to run towards one's loss. Did not the Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w) say in his last sermon: "I am leaving among you two things, to which if you adhere, will preserve you from mistakes, (will give you) a clear orientation, i.e the book of God and my practices ( Sounnah )...”?

As believers, we must realize that this life on earth is, like this forest, full of attractions and dangers. We must understand that it does not limit itself to our GSM, our beautiful cars, our rich stylish clothing... They are only transitory tangible properties and without value. To stick to this world, is to expose one's faith to perdition. It is necessary, just like the walker of our parable, to stop one moment, to reflect, wonder about the essence of one's existence. What is the reason of our coming on earth? What will become of us after death?

Let us remember that we are Muslims and that we belong to the Oummah of the Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w) and that this is a privilege which has been granted to us. Let us recall that death awaits us and it is then that begins our true life. Soon we will travel to the next world and our final destination will depend on this small terrestrial walk.

Alas, we are affected with blindness. Our love for the pleasures of this world, these satanic traps, is a disease which could be fatal for us, a terrible gangrene. We do not believe in the hereafter with certainty. Man's glance has been diverted from it (the next world).

It is high time, like the walker right in the middle of the forest, to give our existence back its true meaning and to become aware that Allah created us to adore and obey Him. Let us follow the plan that He left us and find again the path of rectitude.

May Allah help us to be clear-sighted and to adore Him as He should be. Amine.

PRESS – DALMON MAGAZINE

The Dalmon magazine of Reunion Island has published a speech which Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din Munir Ahmad Azim had delivered in Moufia, in a function where other Muslims had invited him to attend. The article was written by the journalist Miss Valin Florence.

ARC-EN-CIEL RADIO

The same day the Arc-en-ciel Radio of Saint-Denis granted an interview “live” to Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din for 10 minutes and the interviewer was Mr. Yves Carré, a journalist working for the Radio.

SKY RÉUNION RADIO

On April 8, 2006, a program on the life of the Prophet (Seerat-un-Nabi) was presented where on this occasion Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din Munir Ahmad Azim had to speak “live” on Radio ‘Sky Réunion' for 10 minutes.

SWAD MADRASSA – SAINT-DENIS

After the prayer of the afternoon, before sunset ( Salaat-ul-As r) in Saint-Denis , Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din had a special meeting with the young boys and girls of the SWAD Madrassa where he talked to them on prayer ( salaat ). Pupils, teachers and parents were all present and that contributed to make this day a real success by God's will. Alhamdolillah .

Here is a summary of the speech which lasted for about fifty minutes:

Prayer is the most significant pillar of Islam after the profession of faith ( Chahâdah ). One of the last recommendations of the Holy Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w) to his "Oummah", before he left this world, had to do with the observance of prayer. During prayer the believer converses directly with Allah. Indeed, in a Hadith, it is reported that when the Muslim recites the various verses of the chapter " Fatiha ", Allah answers him immediately. It is perhaps the reason for which the Holy Prophet has said that prayer is the ascension “ Mirâdj " of the believer. Prayer is also a means for the believer that enables him to express by his gestures and his behaviour his total submission towards Allah. Prayer is an extraordinary means of purification of sins for the Muslim, as has been explained by the Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w) in many of his sayings.

PRESS – L'EXPRESS

Sunday April 9, 2006 was a very busy day for the Muhyi-ud-Din for there were several more programs on the " Seerat-un-Nabi ". Hazrat Muhyi-ud-Din was the chief guest at the Vauban Salle Polyvalent Saint-Denis where he delivered the closing speech. A summary of his speech written by Jacqueline Rémy was published in the magazine "L'express" of Reunion Island .

MEETING WITH BUSINESSMEN FROM MADAGASCAR

During his brief visit, Hazrat Amirulmomeneen had the opportunity to meet with nine businessmen from Madagascar . Their conversation was very fruitful. In the end six amongst them took the oath of allegiance with him. Furthermore they invited him to visit them when he comes to Madagascar .

NOOR-É-ISLAM MOSQUE

Later on the Muhyiuddin was invited in the Noor-é-Islam Mosque in Moufia to speak on the life of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w). After the sunset prayer ( Salaat - ul Maghrib ) the same day he went to the “Petite île – bas de la rivière” Mosque.

THE RETURN

The Hazrat Amiroul Momeneen and his family came back to Mauritius in the afternoon of Tuesday 12 th April 2006 after an eventful week devoted to spreading the word of Allah.

Before proceeding to Reunion Island Allah told him “Go to Reunion Island , you will get some good news over there”. ‘Again spring came and the words of Allah were fulfilled' as has been so beautifully expressed by Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (a.s). The Jamaat Ahmadiyya Al Mouslemeen continues to grow as was promised by Allah when He said “Don't worry, the Jamaat will grow step by step.” By the Grace of Allah within less than a year the Jamaat has been registered in four other places, namely, India , Mayotte , Morocco and Réunion Island and we are still waiting for a confirmation from Indonesia . All praise belongs to Allah. He does whatever He wants without asking for anyone's authorization whoever he may be.

“Fatabaarakallaahu Rabbul Aalamiin”

Blessed is He who is the Lord of all the worlds.
