> conveying salam to others was the essence of this.

> (4) Unfortunately these days malice and jealousy have crept into daily

> humans cause His displeasure by their misconduct.
>
> (5) Further explaining the term 'Salam' in this discourse, the holy
> Khalifah cited the scholar Imam-Ghazali and said that it is that
> Being Who is free from all flaws and all defects and not only are
> Whose actions free from all evil, rather they have an inherent
> goodness in them. Imam-Raghib said the attribute of Salam denotes that
> Allah is free from all overt and covert flaws and abdus Salam (servant
> of Al Salam) is one who is a manifestation of this attribute and
> indeed God keeps such a person safe from all defect, misfortune and
> flaw.
>
> (6) One cannot benefit from the Divine attribute of Salam unless other
> Muslims are secure from one. Just as the Holy Prophet (peace and
> blessings of Allah be on him) had said that a Muslim is he/she from
> whose tongue and hand Muslims are safe...... Maintaining good mutual
> connections is not a trivial matter, if one wishes to be associated to
> Al Salam then one has to spread peace and security. The Holy Prophet
> (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) said that it is the
> obligation of a true believer that he/she is a guarantor for all
> humanity and from whom all people are secure..... It is this very
> message of peace and security that facilitates fruitful propagation of
> the message of Allah. It is with this quality alone that one can
> imbibe Divine attribute.
>
> (7) Llight on the subject comes from: Surah Al Anam (6:128) "For them
> is the abode of peace with their Lord, and He is their Friend for what
> they did." And from Surah Al Maidah (5:17) "Thereby does Allah guide
> those who seek His pleasure on the paths of peace, and leads then out
> of every kind of darkness into light by His will, and guides them to
> the right path." And from Surah Ya-Seen (36:59) "Peace on you - a
> word (of greeting) from the Merciful Lord." Commenting on this verse,
> the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) said that true salam is that
> which is from God. It is indeed this quality that extinguished the
> fire for Hadhrat Ibrahim (on whom be peace). The essence of the
> quality of Salam is that one's very soul prostrates to the Lord and
> from all possible aspects God and His commandments take precedence
> over all worldly things.
>
> (8) One can only hope to be the recipients of the Divine promises made
> to the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) when, in accordance with
> his teachings one generate an awareness for the Divine attribute of Al
> Salam and try to come under the shelter of Allah's refuge.
> One is indeed most fortunate in that one has accepted the spiritual
> guide of the age to whom one was enjoined to take blessed Holy
> Prophet's 'salam' to.
> Allah sent him His salam through revelations - in order to partake of
> these beneficences and to get a measure of this 'salam' one has to put
> in practice all the guidance emanating from the font of guidance that
> was revealed to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on
> him). By virtue of whose ardent devotion the Promised Messiah (on whom
> be peace) was sent 'salam' in his revelation, addressed by the name of
> 'Ibrahim'.
> This denotes that all the fires kindled by his opponents may be
> extinguished. Hostile fires kindled anywhere in the world will be
> extinguished because they have been set against the Promised Messiah's
> followers. Not only will they be extinguished rather they will herald
> peace and security. Prayers and steadfastness is required. How could
> opponents ever destroy the plant planted by God Himself, Indeed,
> they will be disgraced.
>
> (9) A revelation of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) is :
> 'Salam on Ibrahim, We have purified him and delivered him from grief
> and We indeed brought this about. Thus should you follow in Ibrahim's
> footsteps." Another revelation with slight variation declares
> 'selecting Ibrahim as a sincere friend'. .....The followers of one who
> Allah has selected as a sincere friend should certainly be those who
> tread the path of establi****ng His Unity. And Allah's blessings on
> them are so tremendous that it is as if He Himself comes down to make
> good all their matters. MTA Al Arabiyya is indeed a fulfilment of
> His Divine promises.

> (11) The holy Caliph drew further attention to put Divine commandments
> in practice, he cited : "And the servants of the Gracious God are
> those who walk on the earth in a dignified manner and when the
> ignorant address them, they say, 'Peace!' [Al Furqan (25:64)] -- He
> said: a supreme example of humility was manifested by the Holy Prophet
> (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) at the time of the victory of
> Mecca, where later he famously dispensed security and peace. Holy
> Caliph urged to follow Divine commandments, avoid what is idle and
> absurd and spread peace and a sense of security to seek Allah's
> pleasure. He prayed that may Allah enable all to do this.
