maulana, yeh sawal aaya hai chennai se maulana iqbal umri ka, aur unhone likha hai ke quran ki ek aayat hai chapter 8 verse number 61, jisme likha hai ke "but if they incline to peace, you also incline to it and put your trust in allah.

Verily He is the all-hearer, the all-knower." Musalman aaj is ayat par kyon sahi iman nahi rakhte? kyon Musalman war ki planning mein rehte hain? Maulana sahib, is ki kya wajah hai? is ki wajah behad hai ke Musalmanon ka mindset bigda hua hai zawal ki wajah se. is waqt Musalman apne daur zawal mein sab se, yani jitni siyaraton mein jo Musalman leader uthe, woh sab se bekhabar isi baat se rahe mehnat ki. chahe Mr. Jinnah hon, chahe Dr. Iqbal hon, Maulana Muhammad Ali hon, Maulana Abdul Kalam Azad hon, Sir Syed hon, Maulana Abdullah Mahdi hon, jitne bhi hain, sab ke sab is haqiqat se bekhabar rahe ke Musalman is waqt apne daur zawal mein hain.

aise hi jaise main boodha ho gaya hoon, ab koi shakhs mere bare mein planning kare, jawan farz kar ke, to fail ho jayega. to Musalmanon ke leaderon ne jo planning ki, woh farz kar ke Musalman zinda hain, halanke woh zawal yafta ho chuke the. zawal yafta daur mein yahi hota hai jo ho raha hai ke nafrat dilchaspi hoti hai un ko, pride se dilchaspi hoti hai un ko, taamiri kaam se un ko raghbat nahi hoti. Maulana, agla sawal lene se pehle ek comment parhna chahenge jo Kaleem sahib ne bheja hai Pennsylvania, USA se. unhon ne likha hai ke Maulana sahib Gulzebah sahibah CPS USA ki ek senior member hain.
