The genius of indraprastha (gondwana chronicles book 1)GeniusIndraprastha
Is the rich Aryan past a myth or history?
If it is history, what happened to the rich techsnological heritage of the Mahabharata times?
Long ago, five native tribes of Aryans, Vaishyas, Garudas, Waanars and Asuras lived together in harmony at Gondwana. Things changed when a
foreign force of Khidmatgars attacked. 250 years after the invasion, Khidmatgars are now a formidable force in Gondwana. Led by Commander Bakht
Khan, they have successfully tamed all the native tribes except the Aryans. Yet the Commander's desire for conquest is not satiated.
During an unusual conquest of Agneyapuram, Commander accidentally lays his hands on ancient secret of the Mahabharata times - a secret so strong
that it can actually help Khidmatgars claim entire Gondwana for themselves. At the same time, a genius Aryan Prince of Indraprashta has vowed to
annihilate Khidmatgars from Gondwana using the same secret. What's the secret? Will the Commander be able to tame the Aryans using the secret or
shall the genius Aryan prince write the history his way? Gondwana is staring at a war which has the potential to change its fate forever.

The story serves as a warning about the deception of the world and the importance of remembering death.
The document discusses several hadiths and verses from the Quran about the impermanence and insignificance of worldly life compared to the afterlife. It provides warnings against becoming too attached to worldly gains and pleasures. The hadiths emphasize focusing on good deeds, avoiding doubtful matters, being content with what one has, and preparing for the Day of Judgment rather than desiring worldly attractions.

bin Abdul-Malik was brought but he too fell into the Hellfire.
Thirdly, Suleman bin Abdul-Malik was brought and like the
previous caliphs, he also fell into the Hellfire. Finally, oh leader
of the Muslims! You were brought” As soon as Sayyidunā
Umar bin Abdul-Aziz ʝ heard this, he screamed fearfully
and collapsed. The slave-girl went onto say, ‘Oh leader of the
Muslims! Please, listen to me, ‘By Allah ! I saw that you
successfully crossed the bridge of Siraat’ but, Sayyidunā Umar
bin Abdul-Aziz ʝ had fallen unconscious due to the fears
of the bridge of Siraat and was writhing around in panic.

Our Negligence!
Dear Islamic Brothers! Even though, by shariah, the dream of
a non-Prophet is not a proof, but still Sayyidunā Umar bin
Abdul-Aziz ʝ became unconscious as he was highly
sensitive and fearful regarding the matter of crossing the
bridge of Siraat. Indeed, the matter of the bridge of Siraat is
very critical and severe. It is finer than even a strand of hair,
sharper than even the edge of a sword and is placed above the
Hellfire. By Allah ! Crossing bridge of Siraat will be very

crucial and alarming matter which everyone will have to
confront.
Why this Laughter?
Sayyidunā Hassan Basri ʋ saw a person laughing, he
ʋ asked, “Oh young man! Have you crossed the bridge
of Siraat?” He replied in the negative. He was then asked, “Do
you know whether you will go to Heaven or Hell?” He replied
‘No’. He ʋ said, “Then why are you laughing? In other
words, you are laughing despite the fact that you have to
confront extreme difficulties and you are unaware of your final
destination either.” From that time on, the young man became
serious and was never seen laughing again. (Akhlaq-us-Saliheen,
P44, Maktaba-tul-Madina, Baab-ul-Madina, Karachi)
May Allah have his mercy upon them and forgive us for their
sake.
Astonishment at Laughter
Sayyidunā Abdullah bin Mas’ood ʝ says, “It’s astonishing
as to why a person laughs whereas the Hellfire is behind him
and it’s also strange as to why a person gets happy whereas
death is behind him.” (Tambih-ul-Mughtareen, P46, Maktaba-tul-Ilm,
Damascus)
Everyone will Pass the Bridge of Siraat
It is narrated by Sayyidatuna Hafsa that the Holy
Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ said, “I hope those who were present

She asked humbly “Ya Rasūl-Allah ʄ ٖ ʋ , has Allah

whereas the culprits and unrighteous people will fall into Hell!
It will be a very difficult situation but still we do not wake
from the sleep of negligence and heedlessness.
Crying of a Blessed Companion
Dear Islamic Brothers! Crossing the bridge of Siraat is not easy
at all. Our pious saints ȹȸ were always afraid of crossing
the bridge of Siraat. Sayyidunā Jalaal-ud-Deen Suyuti ash’Shafiee
ʝ says once Sayyidunā Abdullah bin Rawaha ʝ
began to weep in his home. His wife became worried and
asked, “What has brought tears to your eyes?” He ʝ
replied, “I recalled the divine words of Allah , َّﻻِا ُْﻢﳊْﻨِّﻣ ْنِاَو
ﺎَﻫُدِارَو (Translation Kanz-ul-Imaan: There is not one of you
who may not pass over Hell) and I am not aware whether I
will be saved or not.” (Almustadurak lilhakim, Hadith 8748, V4, P631,
Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)
Would that my Mother had not given birth to me!
Once, Sayyidunā Abu Maysara Amr’ bin Shurahbeel ʝ ,
went to a room to take some rest, but suddenly he became
anxious and said, “Would that my mother had not given birth
to me.” His honourable wife asked, “Why are you
saying this?” He ʝ replied, “Indeed, Allah has
informed us about passing the Hellfire, but we do not know
whether or not we will be saved from it.” (Al budurus saafira, P352,
Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)

It takes 15,000 Years to Cross the Bridge of Siraat
Dear Islamic Brothers! May Allah have His mercy upon
us. The journey of the bridge of Siraat is extremely long.
Sayyidunā Fuzail bin Iyaad ʋ narrates that the journey
of the bridge of Siraat is 15,000 years long (meaning the
distance a fast horse covers in 15,000 years). 5,000 years will be
of going up, 5,000 years of going down and 5,000 years of
going straight. The bridge of Siraat is thinner than a strand of
hair, sharper than the edge of the sword and has been placed
upon the back of Hell. The person who is weak and anxious
due to the fear of Allah will succeed in crossing the
bridge of Siraat. (Al budurus saafira, P344, Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah
Beirut)
The Horrific Situation at the Time of Crossing the
Bridge of Siraat
Dear Islamic Brothers! Just imagine! What will be our condition
when the sun, just one and a quarter mile away from the
ground, will be showering fire (fierce heat) on the day of
Judgement? People will be naked and barefooted upon the
intensely hot ground of copper. Just imagine; when the brains
of people will be boiling in extreme heat. Internal organs such
as the liver will have burst, the hearts of people will have come
to the throat from chest due to immense grief, terror and panic
and everyone will have to pass the bridge of Siraat in this state
of unimaginable fear and trouble.
9. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat

In order to cross the bridge of Siraat, one does not need
expertise in different sports and arts such as boxing, wrestling,
running, gliding and space-travelling as these things will not
benefit any one on the bridge of Siraat; instead, the fear of
Allah will benefit people as Sayyidunā Fuzail bin Iyaad ʝ
said, “The people who are weak and anxious due to the fear of
Allah will easily cross the bridge of Siraat.”
Various Ways of Crossing the Bridge of Siraat
Sayyidatuna Aisha Siddiqa narrated “My beloved
husband ʋ ʄ ٖ said, ‘There is a bridge over Hell
which is finer than a strand of hair and sharper than the edge
of a sword. Upon it, there are hooks and thorns made of iron
which catch hold of those people whom Allah wills. The
people will cross the bridge of Siraat in different ways. Some
will cross it (very swiftly) like the blink of an eye, some like
lightening, some like the wind, some like fast horse and camel
riders. The Angels will be reciting ‘ ّْﻢِﻠ َﺳ ِّبَر،ّْﻢِﻠ َﺳ ِّبَر ’ (Oh my
Rab, let him pass safely, Oh my Rab, let him pass safely).
Some Muslims will be saved, some will be injured and some
will fall into the fire of Hell on their faces’.” (Musnad Imaam
Ahmad, Hadith 24847, V9, P415, Dar-ul-Fikr Beirut)
One Reason for Distress in the Hereafter
Dear Islamic Brothers! The colour of Hellfire will be quite
black and the bridge of Siraat will be in total darkness. Only
the one whom Allah will mercy will be successful, as it is

narrated by Sayyidunā Sahl bin Abdullah Tustari ʋ ,
“The one confronting deprivation and poverty in the world
shall be at ease and peace in the hereafter and the one who is
affluent and wealthy in the world shall face deprivation in the
hereafter.” (Hilya-tul-auliya, Hadith 14958, V10, P207, Dar--ul-Kutubul
Ilmiyyah Beirut)
Sayyidunā Sa’eed bin Abi Hilal ʝ said, “I have heard that
the bridge of Siraat will be like a strand of hair for some people
on the Day of Judgement while it will be like home and wide
valleys for some others.” (Shu’ubul-Imaan, V1, P333, Dar-ul-Kutubul
Ilmiyyah Beirut)
More Wealth, More Burden
Dear Islamic Brothers! It’s the way of the world that the more
wealth a person has, the more burden he will have. We can
take the example of travelling; the passengers, who have the
most belongings, face the most difficulties. Further, those who
travel abroad may well be aware of the fact that the passengers
who have luggage in large amount face a lot of trouble and
difficulty at customs. Similarly, those people who possess the
least amount of worldly wealth will be at peace and ease in the
afterlife.
The Definition of a ‘Heavy Burden’
Sayyidunā Anas ʝ said that the beloved of Allah ʄ
ٖ ʋ came holding the hand of Abu Zar ʝ and asked,
“Oh Abu Zar! Do you know we have a difficult valley ahead of
11. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat

us? And only those having a light burden will successfully pass
it” Another person asked “Ya Rasūl-Allah ʄ ٖ ʋ !
Am I from those who have heavy burden or from those who
have light burden?” The Holy Prophet ٖ ʋ ʄ asked,
“Do you have sustenance for today?” He said 'Yes'. The Holy
Prophet ʄ ٖ ʋ then asked, “Do you have sustenance
for tomorrow?” He again said yes. The Holy Prophet ʄ
ٖ ʋ then asked, “Do you have sustenance for the day after
tomorrow?” He replied ‘No’. The beloved Rasūl of Allah
ٖ ʋ ʄ said “If you had possessed sustenance for
three days, you would have been amongst those (people)
who have heavy burden.” (Mu’jamul Awsat Tabaraani, Hadith 4809,
V3, P348, Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)
ʏ ʄʋ ʄ ʄʋ
Burden upon Burden
Dear Islamic Brothers! Storing food for 3 days seems nothing
for us. Our fridges and cupboards are full of different things
just because of greed and crave. We store varieties of food even
unnecessarily. What will happen to the greedy people like us?
We have a heavy burden of wealth, greed to increase our
wealth, the burden of numerous shops and businesses, the
burden of the tax (which was not fairly paid) interest, loans, the
burden of adulteration, deception & betrayal, and countless
other burdens. We have a very heavy burden upon our shoulders,
how will we cross the bridge of Siraat!

Fill in Your Madanī Ina’maat Card Regularly
Dear Islamic Brothers! Feeling guilty, repent sincerely of your
sins in the court of Allah and travel regularly with the
Sunnah inspiring Madanī Qafilas of Dawat-e-Islami in the
company of the lovers of the Noble Prophet. Fill in the card of
Madanī In’aamaat as well doing Fikr-e-Madina on a daily
basis. An effective way to get used to acting upon the Madanī
In’aamaat is to read and fill in your Madanī In’aamaat card
everyday. Those who are steadfast in the Madanī environment
of Dawat-e-Islami fill in their Madanī In’aamaat cards regularly
while those who don’t do so commit an act of irresponsibility
even if they apparently have a label of responsibility.
If you do not want to fill in the Madanī In’aamaat card for the
time being, then at least read them for only 92 seconds. In this
way, , you will soon develop an enthusiasm and
interest of regularly filling in the Madanī In’aamaat card. With
its blessing, you will develop a passion to prepare yourself for
the afterlife and you will desire to attain light for the grave,
Day of Judgement and for the bridge of Siraat.

(2) The Excellence of Going to the Masjid in Darkness
Give the good news of Noor-e-Taam (complete Noor) on the
Day of Judgement to those people who go to the Masajid in
darkness. (Sunan Abu Dawood Sharīf, Hadith 571, V1, P222, Dar-ul-Fikr
Beirut)
(3) The Excellence of Removing Difficulty
Allah will make two types of Noor on the bridge of Siraat
on the Day of Judgement for the one who removes a Muslim
brother's difficulty. Their light will illuminate the universe and
Allah knows the exact number. (Tabaraani fil-Awsat, Hadith
4504, V3, P254, Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)

face will be shining as the moon shines on the 14th night.

People Deprived of Noor
The unfortunate people who do not offer Salah, shave their
beard or keep it less than a fist-length, disobey and distress their
parents, prevent their children from following Shariah so that

pious people ȹȸ feared a bad death. To gain more
information in this regard, please listen to the cassette-Bayan
entitled ‘Allah ki Khufiya Tadbeer.’ , you will
get the fear of Allah by listening to this Bayan.
Further, obtain a small Madanī booklet entitled ‘causes of bad
end’. If you read this booklet attentively and seriously, you will
cry for the protection of your Imaan. Nowadays, people blurt
blasphemous words during everyday normal conversations. It
is fard on every mature male & female to acquire the knowledge
of blasphemous words. Obtain the book entitled ‘Imaan ki
Hifazat’ which contains approximately 500 examples of blasphemous
words. Also obtain a pocket-sized booklet entitled ‘28 Words of
Profanity (Kufr)’.
This booklet contains examples of profane words that are
usually spoken at home. My Madanī advice is that you buy
these low-priced booklets in the quantity of 1200, or if you
can’t buy 1200 then buy 112, or at least 12, and distribute them.
If convenient, kindly persuade your local newsagents or any
other newspaper agency and ask them to distribute these booklets
while selling the newspapers. In this way, your given booklets
will be delivered to other Muslims and you as well as the one
delivering the booklet will be entitled to great reward. The
Sunnah inspiring Bayan cassettes and the Madanī booklets can
be purchased from Maktaba-tul-Madina.

Talking during Azān
It is stated in Bahar-e-Shariat (Part 3) with the reference of
Fatawa-e-Razaviya, “Whoever remains occupied in conversations
during Azān is in the danger of having bad death.” (Bahar-e-
Shariat, Part 3, P38, Madina-tul-Murshid Bareilly Sharīf)
Therefore, we are supposed to stop our conversation and reply
to the Azān whilst Azān is going on.
Unfortunately, these days, Muslims pay little attention towards
this very important matter. Therefore, a card has been prepared
about azan which can be obtained from Maktaba-tul-Madina.
Distribute these cards in every Masjid and get it read out
regularly between Durūd Sharīf and Azān taking the Masjid-
committee into confidence. There shall be a notable Madanī
change. .
Mobile Phone Ring Tones
Unfortunately, only a few people try to avoid sins such as
listening to music these days. Some people forget to turn their
mobile phones off and, resultantly, different types of melodious
tones ring loudly in the Masjid during Salah (Allah
forbid). Delete these damned melodious ring tones from your
mobiles, repent and keep your mobile phone switched off in
respect of the Masjid. In connection to this matter, obtain the
card about the announcement of Azān and distribute as many
cards as you can. Similarly, Maktaba-tul-Madina has issued
another card regarding the sins committed during the sermon
20. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
18
of Jumu’ah Salah. I wish every Imaam makes a habit of reading
out this card every Friday. This card can be obtained from the
stalls of Maktaba-tul-Madina. Become active in distributing
these cards in every Masjid and you will receive
mountains of reward. (You can see the contents of the card at
the end of this booklet)
Release from Hell after One Thousand Years
Sayyidunā Hasan Basri ʋ says, “A person will be released
from Hell after the period of one thousand years” (he later
says), “I wish I were that person.” Accounting for the foregoing
saying of Hasan Basri ʋ , Hujja-tul-Islam Sayyidunā
Imaam Muhammad Ghazali ʋ says, “He said so because
the person who will be released after one thousand years must
have died with Imaan (faith).” (Ihya-ul-Uloom, V4, P198, Dar-ul-
Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)
Did not laugh for 40 Years
Dear Islamic Brothers! Sayyidunā Hasan Basri ʋ , over-
taken by fear, desired to be the person who will eventually be
released from Hellfire after one thousand years. Alas! One
thousand years is an extremely long period. By Allah ! It is
impossible to bear the punishment of Hellfire even for a
millionth of a second! Imagine! How fearful Sayyidunā Hasan
Basri ʋ was. It has been stated that he ʋ did not
laugh for 40 years. He ʋ often seemed as frightened as
the prisoner who has been sentenced to be executed in a short
21. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
19
while. Whenever he used to talk, it seemed as though he is
describing the situation of the afterlife by watching with his
own eyes. When he remained silent, it seemed as if fire was
burning in his eyes. He ʋ was asked, “Why do you
remain so sorrowful and terror stricken?” He ʋ replied,
“I fear that if Allah becomes displeased with me due to
some of my misdeeds and says, go away, I will not forgive you,
then what will happen to me! (Ihya-ul-Uloom, V4, P198, Dar-ul-
Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)
The One Who Crosses with Difficulty
Sayyidunā Imaam Muhammad Ghazali ʋ says, “On the
Day of Judgement, Allah will gather all the people from
the past and the present at a particular place. The Day of
Judgement will last for 50,000 years, during that time, everyone
will look towards the sky for 40 years. They will be waiting
anxiously for the decision. Believers will be given Noor
according to their deeds. The Noor of some believers will be
equal to the size of a mountain and that of some others will be
equal to the size of a date tree and some will receive even lesser
Noor.
There will be a believer who will be given Noor equivalent to
the size of a big toe, which will sometimes brighten and
sometimes will diminish and fade away. When it diminishes,
the believer will stand still because it will be too dark for him
to continue walking and he will walk when it brightens.
Everyone will be crossing the bridge of Siraat according to
22. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
20
their Noor. Some will be crossing the bridge of Siraat like the
blink of an eye, some will be crossing like lightening, some like
the clouds, some like a shooting star, some like running horses
and some like running men. The one who will be given Noor
equivalent to the size of a big toe will be crossing the bridge on
his hands, feet and face. When he will move one of his hands
along, the other will be stuck behind and when he will struggle
to move one foot, he will forcefully drag the other one along
with him and the fire will reach his sides. This person will,
however, manage to cross the bridge of Siraat successfully.
After facing great difficulties & hardships, this believer will
stand up and praise Allah . He will then be given ghusl
besides a well near the door of the Heaven.” (Mulakhkhasn Ihya-ul-
Uloom, V4, P558, Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)
What will happen to me!
Dear Islamic Brothers! The fortunate people who will die with
Imaan will eventually get salvation but, those people who will
lose their Imaan and die without repenting will have no way of
salvation & forgiveness. Therefore, we should always be concerned
about our Imaan. The bridge of Siraat is made above the fire
of Hell and entrance to Heaven is not possible unless you cross
this bridge.
A frightening vision of crossing the bridge of Siraat
Hujja-tul-Islam Imaam Muhammad Ghazali ʋ says
(summarised), whoever remained steadfast upon the straight
23. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
21
path will easily get salvation on the Day of Judgement and
whoever drifted away from the straight path in the world and
took with him heavy burden of disobedience and sins, as soon
as he places the first step on the bridge of Siraat, he will
immediately slip and fall. Oh weak person! Just imagine and
visualise the time when you will see the narrowness of the
bridge of Siraat. You will be immensely terrified. You will see
the horrifying darkness of the Hellfire beneath you, the
fearsome sound of the Hellfire will be heard, and the awful
sound of the rising flames of hellfire will reach your ears. Just
imagine! At that time, you will tremble with fear and terror.
Remember! You will have to cross the bridge of Siraat at any
cost even if you are anxious, afraid, tired and have a heavy
burden. Just imagine! You will be made to step on the bridge
of Siraat unwillingly. This bridge of Siraat will be finer than a
strand of hair and sharper than the edge of a sword. When
taking the first step, you will feel its terrible sharpness, but still,
you will have to take another step. You will see that the people
will be slipping, tripping and falling straight into the fire of
Hell. You will see angels pulling people into the fire of Hell
with terrifying iron hooks and curved rods. You will see and
hear people screaming and crying whilst falling into the fire of
Hell on face. Think! What will be your condition in such a fearful
situation!
Screams of those falling into Hell
You will hear the screams of the people from the depths of Hell.
Countless people will slip and fall into the Hellfire. Imagine!
24. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
22
What will happen to you if your feet slip? At that time, your
shame & regret will certainly not be beneficial to you. Your
crying, screaming and howling will not save you from being
destroyed & ruined forever. At that time, you will be saying, “I
used to fear this day. I wish I had performed good deeds and
acted upon the Sunnah for the preparation of the afterlife. I
wish! I had obeyed the noble Prophet ʋ ʄ ٖ and
followed his way. I wish I had turned to dust, I wish I had lost
my senses, I wish my mother had not given birth to me.”
(Mulakhkhasan Ihya-ul-Uloom, V4, P557-558, Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah
Beirut)
Who will remain Safe from Fear?
Dear Islamic Brothers! Hujja-tul-Islam Imaam Muhammad
Ghazali ʋ writes in Ihya-ul-Uloom (V4, summarised) 'One
should remain very sad remembering the terror and extreme
fear of the bridge of Siraat during the traumatising conditions
of Judgement Day, only the people who may have remained
concerned and afraid about these matters in the world will be
saved. The reason is that Allah does not put two fears
together in a person’s heart; if a person fears the horrific conditions
of Judgement Day in the world, he will not experience them in
the hereafter.
Womanly Fear
Fear does not imply the short-lived psychological fear of
women. Neither does it mean to cry for a short while and then
25. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
23
forget what you heard and become engaged in having fun.
Generally, man shrinks from the thing which he fears and tries
to get the thing which he desires. Anyway, only the fear which
persuades you to worship and obey Allah and prevent
you from sins and disobedience will lead you to salvation in
the afterlife.
Fear of the Fool
Remember! The fear the stupid people possess is worse even
than the temporary fear of a sensitive woman because when
these people listen to the horrifying and terrifying conditions
of the Judgement Day, they insincerely start saying, “Allah
forbid, Allah forbid. Oh Allah ! Save me. Oh
Allah ! Bestow your mercy upon me. Oh Allah ! Help
me.”
These feelings and emotions are confined to only that particular
moment and are not from the bottom of the heart. The reason
why their emotions and fears are being called temporary is that
although they express fear, they continue to commit sins
instead of leaving them. (For example, the person who misses
Salah continues to miss it, a beardless person does not grow
beard; a liar does not stop lying, the person in the habit of
taking and giving bribery, unlawful occupation, fraud &
deception does not give up these evils, the person who looks at
strange women and beardless boys with lust does not safeguard
his eyes from looking at them, the person who watches film
and enjoys listening to music does not develop a mindset to
26. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
24
refrain from sins, the people who wear un-Islamic dress, or
oppress and cause grief to other people do not avoid these sins,
adulterers, alcohol drinkers, disobedient to parents, the one
who does not educate their children about the Sunnah and the
one who enjoys the company of modern and corrupt friends
and the people who miss their Salah, do not repent and do not
give up the sins. Instead, all of them remain steadfast upon
committing sins.)
ʏ ʄʋ ʄ ʄʋ
Who does Satan laugh at?
Satan laughs at those people who cry and seek forgiveness just
temporarily or because other people are also doing the same.
He is like the person who is in a jungle and is sitting outside a
strongly constructed and well protected house. Suddenly, he
hears a lion roaring from a distance, the lion approaches to
attack him. Instead of taking refuge in the house, he begins to
weep and say, “I seek the protection of this house from the
lion”. If this person keeps staying there and does not run into
the house, do you think his pathetic cries will save him from
the lion? Never. Unless he does not make an effort to move
and take refuge of the house, he will not be safe from the lion.
By keeping this example in mind, decide for yourself as to how
temporary fear and emotion will benefit you. (Mulakhkhasan Ihya-
ul-Uloom, V4, P559, Dar-ul-Kutubul Ilmiyyah Beirut)
27. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
25
Give up Sins Immediately Instead of Slowly
Dear Islamic Brothers! If you become emotional and start
crying sincerely, even if it is just for a moment, , you
will gain benefit. It will cause a positive change.
Develop the mindset that ‘I will try my best to improve myself’.
Repent and cry with remorse remembering your sins. Make a
firm intention that 'from now on' I will never commit any sin -
’. Beware! Satan will try his best to prevent you from
your reformation by giving his satanic ideas such as, it’s not
good to make a quick and instant decision, you should rectify
yourself gradually. Do not become a Maulvi. It is not appropriate
to travel with the Madanī Qafila in the company of the
Prophet's devotees, keep on trying slowly, your whole life is
left, you are young, you are not yet even married, grow your
beard after you get married, or grow beard when you go to
perform Hajj and visit Madina-tul-Munawwara, wear the turban
later on etc.”
Dear Islamic Brothers! By Allah ! This is a very dangerous
attack of Satan. It is extremely dangerous to delay in repentance.
Satan might whisper, “I am not preventing you from repenting,
you can repent right now”.
Three Conditions of Repentance
Dear Islamic Brothers! Repentance does not mean just uttering
the word 'repentance' a couple of times. Please remember the
following three conditions of repentance. If even one condition
is not fulfilled, your repentance will not be accepted. The three
28. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
26
conditions are: (1) Confession of sin, (2) Feeling guilty, (3)
Firm intention to give up the Sin.
When is the Repentance of the Person who Misses
Salah accepted?
If the sin can be compensated for, it is essential to compensate
for it. For example, the repentance of a person who misses
Salah will be considered valid and complete only when he
performs Qada of the Salah he missed. If somebody's money
or goods were robbed or stolen, repentance will be valid when
the robbed or stolen money is returned or he gets it forgiven
by the owner. It is insufficient just to go and apologise and say
sorry formally without returning the money or goods. If the
person has passed away, return the money to his inheritors. If
you do not remember the people who you owe money to,
donate that amount amongst the poor people. For detailed
information regarding rulings of the rights of people, purchase
the booklet entitled ‘Zulm ka Anjaam’ from Maktaba-tul-
Madina or listen to its audio-cassette Bayan.

Self-Rectification should be done at Once Instead
of Slowly
Delay in repentance and reformation may prove to be dangerous

patients but many healthy youth also tragically leave this world
due to accidents, riots, violence and bomb-blasts. Further,
natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods also cause the
death of innumerable people.
More than 220,000 People Dead
We all remember the enormous tsunami which caused
unimaginable destruction in South East Asia on December 26th
2004. It occurred quite suddenly; according to the report
issued by Jang newspaper on 20.01.2005, ‘more than 220,000
people died in the eleven affected countries. This disaster
should serves as an eye-opener. This tsunami has in fact
shaken the whole world, but sins have not decreased. As a
warning, I present to you an article from the Jang newspaper
of 20.01.2005.
ʏ ʄʋ ʄ ʄʋ
Destruction of a Tsunami
One of the adversely-hit areas was Banda Aachay, the capital
of the Indonesian Province of Aceh. Death toll of this area
alone rose above the 100,000 figure. A journalist that was present
in Banda Aachay reported that Banda Aachay was a beautiful
and lush green city. No other city was as vibrant and colourful
as this one. The tsunami occurred turning this bustling city into
debris within a few minutes. The tsunami annihilated this place
rendering thousands of families homeless. According to the
30. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat
28
statistics of a non- governmental Indonesian organisation, 60%
of the population of Banda Aachay has perished. Corpses are
still scattered around everywhere and thousands of dead
bodies are disposed in mass burial sites everyday. Those who
survived the tsunami are in relief camps, crying and grieving
for their loved ones. Among them are people who have lost
their entire families. The sadness and grief in their eyes will
perhaps never go away. They are those people who saw their
loved ones helplessly dying in front of them. Their pain &
sorrow can never be compensated. The tsunami has caused so
much destruction and loss of life which this generation had
never experienced before. It is said that if tsunami had
occurred at night instead of day, the people that have managed
to survive would have also been killed. The river flowing through
the centre of Banda Aachay used to silently flow from the
North to the South but now it flows in the opposite direction.

This Incident is certainly not new
Dear Islamic Brothers! By Allah ! This incident serves as a
warning and a lesson. Are we still not going to sincerely repent
of our sins? This incident of mass destruction is certainly not
new. These kinds of incidents also happened in the past as:

Ad-Dukhaan, verse 25-29:

How many gardens and water-springs they left behind! And

The world is not a place to be content with
Dear Islamic Brothers! Have you not realised how those people
who once constructed splendid houses, decorated pleasant gardens
and possessed vibrant cornfields, suddenly departed from this
world. Others inherited their properties and possessions. The
Heavens and earth did not shed tears for them. They have

Now they have nothing but their deeds which they performed

Repent as the Mercy of Allah is Immense
Dear Islamic Brothers! Before the news of your death spreads
and the Ghasaal is called to bathe and wrap your dead body in
shroud and you are laid down into your dark grave, it is wise
32. The Fear of the Bridge of Siraat

to repent immediately without delay because you still have the
time and opportunity right now.
Dear Islamic Brothers! In order to make preparation for death,
grave, resurrection and crossing the bridge of Siraat safely,
make it a habit to travel regularly with the Madanī Qafilas of
Dawat-e-Islami. ȹȸ ! Sometimes, a sincere intention of
travelling with a Madanī Qafila can bring about forgiveness as
is evident from the following event.
Swing of a Heavenly Garden
Impressed by the visit of the area for invitation to goodness, a
modern youth belonging to Hyderabad (Baab-ul-Islam, Sindh),
attended the Masjid and listened to the Bayan in which the
participants were persuaded to travel with the Madanī Qafila.
The young Islamic brother also expressed his intention to
travel with the Madanī Qafila and got his name noted. Just a
few days before the Madanī Qafila, he passed away. One of his
family-members dreamt that the deceased was in a lush green
garden and was joyfully swinging on a swing. The dreamer
asked, “How did you come here?” He replied, “I have come
here with the Madanī Qafila of Dawat-e-Islami. Allah
treated me generously. Tell my mother not to cry for me because
I am at peace.”
Dear Islamic Brothers! It all depends upon the will of Allah
that if He wants, He can punish someone for one
sin, and if He wants, He can favour someone due to a single
virtue or He can forgive somebody without questioning him
