<strong>Al</strong> <strong>Qaul</strong> <strong>Al</strong> <strong>Mahmood</strong><br />

Hzt Syed <strong>Al</strong>i Yadullahi Makki Badey Miyan RH<br />

<strong>Mahmood</strong> RZ . Imam Mahdi AS said “Companionship with me is like an oven where some of the coals are<br />

fully afire, while others have just caught fire. But when they appear before Syed <strong>Mahmood</strong>, they will<br />

also be fully aflame.”<br />

This shows that following the companions who have not been named by the Imam Mahdi AS is not<br />

obligatory. Their practice should be tested on the touchstone of the principles described above. If they<br />

pass the test they should be followed; otherwise, not.<br />

It is obvious to the discerning that if a commandment based on a tradition or analogy does against<br />

the saying of Imam Mahdi AS , the saying of the Imam AS alone is bound to be followed for the simple<br />

reason that the Imam AS is incapable of committing a mistake (masoom-an-il-khata) and therefore, there<br />

is no possibility of a mistake occurring in his sayings.<br />

MAHDAVI BELIEFS<br />

I now describe the Mahdavi beliefs:<br />

We (Mahdavis) say that <strong>Al</strong>lah is one and is free from needs. He has said “Say: He is <strong>Al</strong>lah, the One<br />

and Only; <strong>Al</strong>lah, the Eternal, Absolute.” (112:1-2).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah is alive eternally, nobody is like Him. He says “<strong>Al</strong>lah, There is no god but He – the living, the<br />

Self-Subsisting, Eternal.” (2:255).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah possesses the divine power, omnipotence: He says “….. <strong>Al</strong>lah hath power over all things.”<br />

(2:20).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah sees and hears: He says “….. He is the One who heareth and seeth (all things).” (17:1).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah speaks: He says “And to Moses <strong>Al</strong>lah spoke direct.” (4:164).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah is eternal, immortal, ancient: He says “He is the First and the Last, the Evident and the<br />

Immanent; and he has full knowledge of all things.” (57:3).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah is the Creator: He says “that is <strong>Al</strong>lah, your Lord, there is no God but He, Creator of all things;<br />

then worship ye Him; and He hath power to dispose of all affairs.” (6:102).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah warns: “And who gives you sustenance from heaven and earth (Can there be another) God<br />

besides <strong>Al</strong>lah Say, “Bring forth your argument, if ye are telling the truth.” (27:64).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah gives life and death: He says “To Him belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; it is<br />

He Who gives Life and Death; and He has Power over all things.” (57:2).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah can be seen: His being seen is possible; He says: “But those who ever blind in this world will<br />

be blind in the Hereafter…..” (17:72).<br />

Further <strong>Al</strong>lah says: “Some faces, that day, will beam (in brightness and beauty) – Looking towards<br />

their Lord” (75:22-23).<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah also says: “No vision can grasp Him, but His grasp is over all vision.” (6:103). In this verse, <strong>Al</strong>lah<br />

has said that His nature (zath) cannot be comprehended. He has not said that he cannot be seen. The<br />

word “idrak” does not mean seeing; it means comprehension, understanding.<br />
