Vision of Beloved Hazar Imam for Golden Jubilee

Post by ShamshtabrezDhirani »

PLEASE DO NOT MISS THE STATISTICS RIGHT AFTER THIS CLIP. THANK YOU!

AKDN is very important “Baraka” Beloved Hazar Imam has bestowed upon Ismaili world to enhance material and spiritual lives.

Collapse of the Soviet Union made the world smaller. Central Asian countries, predominantly comprising Sunnis, previously part of the Soviet Union, some gained and some declared independence and ceased to be the part of the greater Soviet Union. Soviet Union was reduced to Russia. Compared to what it was and what is now, is like comparing an elephant with a goat.

Will of the people broke down “the iron gate”. Freedom was at last achieved and established. Along with that achievement saw the end of hundreds of years of separation of “brothers in religion”, who were deprived of the basic human needs that the westerns enjoy by birthright.

Unknown number of our brethren, Ismailis, made the world even smaller with the advent of new technology in communication, the communication capability that had been nonexistent in the recent past. Still a number of brethren living mainly in the western China that is situated close to the Central Asian Muslim countries, estimated to be in hundreds of thousands, have no links with the worldwide Ismaili Jamat.

Who are “True friends (brethren) are a single soul in different bodies” says our Beloved Hazrat Ali.

Beloved Hazar Imam in His “batuni swarup” revealed to our Beloved Prophet Nabi Muhammad Mustapha to declare Hazrat Ali as the Imam of the Time, to be succeeded by His appointees, to shelter, to guide, all righteous “momins” to “Sirat-al-Mustaqueem” in inseparable “Deen and Duniya” to achieve the results both in physical, spiritual lives and life hereafter.

Every Imam in their time has positioned the Ismaili community to jump one step ahead every day in every generation. Our Beloved Hazar Imam Shah Karim, in His infinite mercy, has established AKDN for the prime benefit of the worldwide Ismaili community.

Network of AKDN comprises institutions in almost every sphere of human benefit and advancement, not only of Ismailis but the rest of people among who Ismailis live. Beloved Hazar Imam says:

“The improvement of the human condition must be a principal obligation of every Muslim, whether those he helps are of his own faith or not.” [Speech 15 Jan. 1983]

-- Aga Khan IV

Once upon a time, in an East African Muslim Conference in Mombasa, Beloved Sultan Muhammad Shah questioned Muslim leaders who were present: “Allah will ask you one question – “What did you do for Islam in your life time?” He said: “I will answer this question on behalf of my community!”

Allah created the Universe and everything it contains. He knows its intricacies, its marvels, and its secrets. His wisdom engulfs past, the present and the future. In His physical form He is knowledgeable of hidden things contained in the present time that are basis for future advancement and solidification of the Ismaili community. In the present environment and situation and, beyond human intellect or comprehension, He is knowledgeable of the future and makes decisions accordingly. His intelligence has no barrier, no dimensions, not limits, and no horizons. He is Imam of the Time and in every period there One.

There is no different between the 1st or the 13th, or the 48th or the 49th. It’s “the same Noor”! Beloved Hazar Imam wishes to make all Ismailis as “one soul in different bodies, one heart and one mind” in different parts of the world, for the sole purpose of being a strong and single community under His shelter and guidance under strengthened institutions of AKDN, so that no Ismaili in the world is left without food, clean water, shelter, education, is self-sufficient, progressive, and has an opportunity that is available in developing countries. That every Ismaili on earth should be very well educated, has an excellent health, has an excellent quality of life, is industrious, has the best of everything in Deen and Duniya

If there were 25 million Ismailis on the face of the earth at present and each one donated 1 hour of his daily life that would mean 25 million man-hours per day. If he continues to spare 1 hour daily during his life, can one imagine how many man-hours are at the disposal of our Beloved Hazer Imam to improve quality of life for the world Jamat? The accumulation of fruitful time so generated for nothing else but for His love will probably benefit 25 million Ismaili brethren in, hopefully, 20(!) generations. Are we willing and ready?” The answer is swift “most willingly and as soon as the call is sounded!”

Golden Jubilee is upon us. Hazar Imam expects His momins to be ready for the hopes, challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for our brethren around the world. “When you have Him and He is yours, is there anything else you need in this and the next? Nothing except His love and affection!”

Dear AKKU 99<P>Ya Ali Madad I Read ur post dated 8feb.07.I Enjoyed Stastics of&nbsp; imamat period.But&nbsp;I &nbsp;Would like to draw ur attention that period of imamat of imam of mowlana az-zahir was 1021-1036, & mowlana al mustansirbillah was 1036-1095. so. nine holy imams o&shy;n the throne of holy imamat over 50 years&nbsp;</P>

Yes, you are correct. The information I relied upon was collected from Ismaili.NET site under Ismaili History. I think it must have been a typographical error. In the heading the Imamate periods indicated are: -

Az-Zahir 1021 – 1056 - Correct period is 1021 - 1036
Al-Mustansiribillah 1056 – 1095 - Correct period is 1036 - 1095

If you read the history by clicking the drop sign you will notice the period is 1036 to 1095 which is 59 years. Hence there are 9 Holy Imams on the Throne of Imamate.

Thank you once again for pointing out the correct information.
