of the description of the beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم that is written in the Torah.”

He replied, “It is written in the Torah that Aḥmad صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم will be from the offspring of IsmāꜤīl عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم. He will be the one with the correct religion. The seal of prophethood will be between his shoulders, he will tie an Ꜥimāmah with a tail end, and he will ride a camel. He will be granted such a prayer that if it was to be granted to the nation of Nūḥ, they would not have been destroyed by the flood, and if was to be granted to the nation of ꜤĀd, the punishment of the storm would not have struck them, and if it was to be granted to the nation of Thamūd, they would not have been overcome with the punishment of the shriek.”^[1]

اللہُ اکبر! Look at the immense virtue of prayer! Therefore, whilst we should celebrate the Mawlid, we must avoid songs, music, dancing and unlawful unveiling, and remain within the boundaries of the Shariah. Alongside this, we should offer all five prayers in congregation within the masjid.

May Allah Almighty grant us the ability to act upon this.

اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                     صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
