Friday Sermon 26 August 1994.

Description

I inaugurate the Jalsa [Germany].  Win the hearts of the world through the tools of prayers.  Concentrate on praying night and day.  The secret to the longevity of nations mentioned in 'The Holy Quran' is this that virtue be upheld in society and that people are stopped from the practice of evil.  Generally when people counsel others they do so whilst thinking themselves to be pure and considering the addressed as less than themselves.   In this way their style is one of command and such advise has the opposite effect and instead of metal love and affection, the society gives rise to enmity and the seeds of hatred are sowed.  One should learn the styles of counsel from the Holy Prophet ﷺ and adopt those.  If one does this then the society will be filled with peace and harmony.  A system for the eradication of evil will arise from within every person, an awareness to remove one's evils and to increase one's virtues will be born.  So one ought to bring about changes in the world by adopting this principle of the Holy Prophet ﷺ and then one's virtues will swallow up one's shortcomings.  Counsel should arise from one's heart so that it may reach into the heart of one to whom it is offered.  The second thing is that advise should be rendered through one's practice so as to effect the character of another.  This was the very Perfect Example of the Holy Prophet ﷺ and if it is not adopted than all advise would be rendered impractical.
