Why did I leave Ahmadiyyat?
For Ahmadis, but Muslims can also read it!
by Prof. Munawwer Ahmad Malik
Professor Munawwer Ahmad Malik had been a qadiani for 40 years. In 1999
Allah gave him the hidayah and opened his heart for Islam, after which he
denounced Ahmadiyyat. Now he is engaged in exposing the secrets of this
cult, so that ordinary Ahmadis can discover that which is hidden from him.
My Dear Friends of Jamaat!
I want to talk to to you about certain things, draw your attention towards
such things which are not only just worth considering, but also worth
investigating. Since I have spent 40 years of my life with the Jamaat,
therefore you cannot deny those things. As a sincere Ahmadi, I had been
engaged in tabligh as a Muballigh of Jamaat, and as an ordinary worker I
have been participating actively in every activity of the Jamaat. Lastly I
had been the Naib (Assistant) Ameer of Jhelum Jamaat and after developing a
relationship with the hierarchy of the Jamaat and experiencing their ways,
I thought, investigated and then Allah gave me the guidance to leave the
Jamaat and thus entered the fold of Islam. If what I am going to say, you
tell me that this is not true, then I will be justified in saying that
either you are not aware of the reality of this Jamaat or else you are just
a paid 'murabbi'.
Dear Jamaati friends!
You know that since childhood every Ahmadi child's mind is fed with this
belief that Ahmadiyyat is true Islam, that in this last era God has given
the task of total victory and domination of Islam to Ahmadiyyat, that the
Islam of rest of the Muslims is not only stale but also it has been
altered, that that Islam which was present at its advent, Ahmadiyyat is
presenting that Islam to the world .... etc. etc.
Dear friends of Jamaat!
The basic articles of faith in islam are five, which every follower of the
Jamaat accepts. They are Kalima Tayyebah, prayer, fasting, Hajj and Zakaat.
These are basic articles of faith and not to accept any one of them is
equivalent to not fulfilling the basic conditions of Islam.
Dear Friends of Jamaat!
There is great stress in the Jamaat on donations. Chanda Aam is that basic
donation that is payable by every earning person (rather now it has become
compulsory for unemployed persons as well to pay it), its payment is
obligatory. Every employed person must compulsarily pay 6.25% of his salary
as Chanda Aam. Round the year members' attention is drawn towards this
task. Two three times a year inspectors come from the center and make sure
the 100% collection of this donation. To facilitate its collection, many
'religious incentives' are given, that those who will make 100% payment,
their names will be sent to 'Huzoor' (Mirza Tahir Ahmad Qadiani) for dua,
and that at such and such times the names of Jamaat will also be mentioned
etc. etc. Before the end of financial year, the leaders of the Jamaat give
several sermons on the importance of this Chanda and to draw attention
towards its collection; and at the end of the year, the details of this
donation is announced, details of promises and next budget is announced.
On every person, whether employed or unemployed, donation 'Tehreek Jadeed'
is compulsory. Earlier it was optional, but now gradually it has become
obligatory. To make 100% collection of Chanda Tehreek Jadeed, separate
inspectors come from the center, leaders give separate sermons and the
whole machinery of Jamaat gets busy in collecting this donation. 'Chanda
Salana' is also a compulsory donation, which is taken annually at the rate
of 10% of the monthly income. For its collection as well special sermons
are delivered. 'Waqf Jadeed' also was introduced as an optional Chanda but
that is also now becoming an obligatory donation. The inspectors of above
mentioned four chandas come from the center three times a year to make sure
the collection of these chandas. Those on whom the dues of these chandas
are outstanding, inspectors even approach their homes to collect the
donations.
Apart from these, there are other chandas:
For instance on young people (Khuddam-ul-Ahmadiyya) there is Chanda Majlis,
Chanda Ta'ameer Hall, Chanda Ijtama'a; on aged persons (Ansarullah), there
is Chanda Bosnia, Chanda Africa etc. etc. Chanda 100 years Jubilee was
collected for 16 years.
One Ahmadi whose salary is Rs. 3000 per month, he has to pay at least Rs.
300 per month in these donations. If his wife, children and parents are
with him, then their dues will also be collected from the same salary. Thus
he is compelled to pay between Rs. 300 to Rs. 500 every month. If he does
not pay, then it would be added to his account so that at the end of the
year he will have between Rs. 3000 to 4000 due against him. Similarly if
someone is earning Rs. 10,000 per month, then annually he has to pay more
than Rs. 12,000.
Apart from these donations, there is another system in place, which is that
if someone wants that after his death he is buried in a special 'heavenly
graveyard' in Rabwah, then it would be necessary for him that instead of
6.25% of Chanda Aam, he will pay 10% and he will transfer 10% of his
property to the President of Anjuman-e-Ahmadiyya, and he will continue to
pay 10% of all his earnings in future to the centre. These conditions are
applicable from the day he makes the will. Now if a person dies and his
dead body has reached Rabwah, but 10% of his property has not been
transferred to the President of Jamaat Ahmadiyya or if he has some unpaid
dues, then his burial will be stopped. Unless his heirs clear all his dues,
the burial cannot take place.
If an Ahmadi refuse to pay the above Chandas, then he does not remain an
Ahmadi. If he doesn't pay the chanda or delays the payment, then that
chanda will be added to his dues, which will be collected from his
relatives after his death. Anynow who has arrears in payment, his name is
advertised, he will be considered 'tainted' in the Jamaat and like an
animal whose tail is cut, he will be the focus of everyone.
Dear Jamaat Friends!
By all this details, the point that I want to highlight is that how active
is the jamaat regarding the payment of Chandas and how an organised network
is working for it. BUT have you ever seen a ZAKAAT INSPECTOR coming from
the center? Has Zakaat (which is an obligatory duty of every Muslim) ever
been tried to collect from you? Has Zakaat ever been added to your arrears?
Have you ever heard a sermon or lecture on Zakaat from 'Huzoor' (Mirza
Tahir)? Have you ever seen any attempt at the central level to draw your
attention to the collection of Zakaat? Definitely your answer would be in
negative. Is it not worth thinking that a basic tenet of Islam has not only
been left, it is considered as out of religion. Can Islam exist without
this pillar? What I mean is that can Ahmadiyyat remain linked with Islam
without this pillar?
Dear Ahbaab of Jamaat!
On numerous occasions you must have heard several sermons from the mouth of
'Present Khalifa' (Mirza Tahir) about the 'barakaat' of Jalsa Salan, good
wishes about the attendees of this Jalsa and supplications for them, you
must have heard many lectures and sermons about these Jalsa Salana
programs, drawing attention to attend them. We keep reading detailed
reports of Jalsa Salana, Rabwah and London in magazines and newspapers of
Jamaat like 'AlFazl', 'Khalid', 'Tasheed-ul-Azhan', 'Misbah', and
'Ansarullah'. As a result of all these efforts, a person who has been
hearing all this since childhood, by the time he reaches 30-35 years of
age, he developed so much faith with every aspect of this Jalsa that no
non-Ahmadi can imagine that.
BUT have you ever heard any sermon on Hajj from the mouth of 'Khalifa-e-Waqt'?
Have 'Huzoor' ever told Jamaat members about the details of Manasik-e-Hajj?
Ever heard any lecture on Hajj by any high placed Jamaat's office bearer?
Your answer will definitely in negative. Why is this so? A basic tenet of
Islam has not only been ignored, instead as ooposed to it stress is laid on
attending Jalsa Salana. How many Hajj were performed by the 2nd Khalifa
Mirza Basheeruddin Mahmud? In 51 years when he was the Imam of Ahmadis, he
should have done more than 30 Hajjs, but just to decieve people he did once
only? He was supposed to have a special affiliation with religion, yet how
many Hajj he performed. It was he who informed Ahmadis that all non-Ahmadis
are not only Kaafirs, but they are PUKKA kaafirs. And it was his such
delicate writings that in 1974 Ahmadis were declared as a minority and made
it reach upto this point.
Then Ahmadis do not perform Hajj because of restrictions but spend
thousands of ruppees to go to london to attend Jalsa Salana. A government
employee cannot leave the country without official permission. But an Ahmad
government servant attend Jalsa abraod by obtaining fake passports and by
providing false informations, they even go to Qadian to attend the Jalsa
Salana. They do not care for any restrictions to attend this Jalsa. in
other words they prove by their actions that as compare to Hajj, Jalsa is
more important.
Dear Ahbaab of Jamaat!
If until now you consider yourself a Muslim and considers it necessary to
believe in 5 basic tenets of Islam, then think, where is Jamaat taking you
by totally neglecting/denying two basic tenets (Zakaat and Hajj) of Islam?
And then how can you call yourself a Muslim?
Dear Ahbaab of Jamaat!
Now i want to draw your attention to another important problem. When the
time comes for the election of President/Ameer of some local Jamaat, then
at the time of voting, such persons are shown out who have outstanding
chnada dues of six months or more, irrespective of how much such a person
is pious, respectable, regular in prayers, he is definitely removed. Such a
person can neither cast a vote not can he become an office bearer. Now
those who are casting votes, among them are persons who are not reglar in
prayers, nor are they pious, nor are they active in Jamaat activities,
rather they are far away from religion. Just prior to the election he has
paid his dues, and Jamaat gives them an entitlement to elect the Ameer
Jamaat and other office bearers (members of exceutive council). Not only
this, such a person has full right, rather entitlement, that he is elected
as an office bearer, or even he can become Ameer of Jamaat.
Dear Friends of Jamaat!
Just think! The only qualification to be a voter or an office bearer is
Chanda and Chanda alone, that MONEY. He who pays the money is a pious
person, and he who does not pay the money he will be rejected. Is this not
the same condenmable principle which is practiced by our corrupt government
departments and persons, which has spoiled the atmosphere of this blessed
country? He who pays the money, he is respectable and is in the forefront,
who cannot give the money he is contemptible. Ahmadiyya Jamaat claims to be
a purely religious Jamaat, what has happened to the religion?
Now let us see the method of election. Those who are emtitled to vote, they
are all or some of them can become office bearer. At the beginng of
election, one person will stand up and nominate anyone for any office, the
person whose name has been proposed, he may not know about it, his
permission may not have been sought, rather if he refuses to participate,
still his name would be amongst the proposed names. Then someone will
second this name. Similarly another person will get up and propose the name
of another person for the same office. Then someone will second it. Thus
two persons will be contestants for the same post. Now open voting will
take place. People will be asked that those who are in favour of the first
one, raise their hands. If the first one is an influential person, then all
votes will go to him, if the second person is influential then the votes
will be reserved for him. There is no concept of secret ballot. . It is
obvious that in all rural gatherings, only land lords, and unscroupulous
people get the votes, because these persons have big families and have
considerable inluence over people, and people are afraid of giveing votes
to his opponents in front of him. Thus in such gatherings when such a
person becomes the President or Ameer, then he remians on that post till
his death, because during the three years for which he is elected, he
onsolidates his position, and then there is no chance of him leaving that
position. Then the method of election is such that no candidate can talk
against another person, cannot pass a remarks against another person or try
to improve his position among the voters. Now if a corrupt, scoundrel and
infamous person becomes a President, then he will remain on that post,
there is no way to remove him, Jamaat cannot remove him, because it says:
those who have elected him, should remove him. Now who can vote against
such a person and generate enemosity for himself?
It is the result of this old, incomprehensible and impractical system that
the Ameers of many Jamaats are in place years after years, Ameer of some
cities or districts are in place for 20 years, in other places for 30, and
in one area he is holding the office for 47 years. All these Ameers remain
in office till death and because of their life long rule, they are above
all kinds of principles, rules, regulations and good policy. They rule in a
free style manner, and are an example of an ideal walking dictator. Because
of these 'qualities' of Ameers, many Ahmadis are leaving the Jamaat, this
process is going on and it is gaining momentum with every passing day.
Majority of those who are leaving the Jamaat, are educated and are fed up
with this out-dated rituals and excesses of Ameers.
Ahbaab Jamaat!
Once again come back to the method of election. You have made a non-pious,
un-righteous person Ameer of Jamaat, as I explained in detail that a land
lord, holligan, village-leader had become an Ameer of Jamaat. Now these
Ameers from all over Pakistan, will first elect district Ameers, and then
they will elect an Ameer for Pakistan or Ameer for the whole Jamaat - the
'Khalifa'! Imagine, what a good quality butter is being obtained from this
'poisoned milk'. Probably this is also a 'MIRACLE' of the Jamaat. How pious
can be the leader of such irreligious and impious people?
Now sincere Ahmadis will immediately counter this by saying that the office
of Ameers is purely administrative or that Khalifa is just an
administrative post. Now let us analyse this aspect as well. A land lord
has been elected by you as Ameer of Jamaat. In his Jamaat, a 'Murabbi'
(preacher) is also present from the center. 'Murabbi' has obtained 7 years
of religious education, before being appointed by the center, but according
to the rules and regulations of the Jamaat, it is the right of Ameer first
to deliver the friday sermon. If he orders 'murabbi', then only murabbi
will deliver the sermon. Now the friday sermon is a purely religious duty,
what has that got to do with the Ameer of Jamaat, since to become an Ameer
of Jamaat there is no requirement to have religious education, nor is it
necessary to have worldly education, it is possible that he is totally
illiterate, yet Ameer has the first right to deliver the sermon according
to rules of Jamaat.
Similarly, the position of the Incharge of all Ameers of Jamaat, i.e.
Khalifa, is not just administrative, rather he is all in all, in every
sphere, be it religious or administrative, policy making or any other
matter, position of 'Khalifa' is the top most, final decision is his. He is
not bound by anyone or anything, nor is he answerable to anyone, nor can
his decision be challenged anywhere. Every administrative decision, every
religious edict will come from him. These strange rules and regulations,
sayings and practices, keep Ahmadis mystified under the cover of their
blind faith.
Jamaati friends!
Now let us just see the 'power' of above mentioned Ameer. If an ordinary
Ahmadi has some diiference of opinion or grevience against some remarks,
attitude, character of Ameer Jamaat or differnce on some other religious or
administrative matter, then that Ameer Jamaat will send his complain to the
higher authorities. It doesn't matter how weak is the position of Ameer, or
how objectionable is his attitude, and it doesn't matter against whom the
complain is being lodged, how right he is, it is the Ameer of Jamaat's
words that would be taken as true. Now what action is taken upon this
complain, that is another story, but what happens to the future of this
Ahmadi, just read that:
Since Ameer is now angry from this sincere Ahmadi, then the 'Khalifa' will
also be angry from this Ahmadi becuase Ameer of Jamaat is his
representative, therefore it is compulsory that the Khalifa will be angry.
And from whom Khalifa is angry, according to Ahmadi beliefs, God is also
angry with him, and if God is angry with someone, then he can imagine his
fate! Now if Ameer will become happy with this Ahmadi, then God will also
be happy. In other words God is bound by the wishes of the Ameer of Jamaat,
if he permits then only God will be happy with such a person, otherwise not.
Above mentioned system is exactly how it works in the Jamaat. Now the
picture that emerges is this that God is bound by the wishes of Ahmadi land
lords, scoundrels and criminals of every town; for whomsoever he would
request to be forgiven, God will forgive, and for whosoever he will
recommend hell, God will be bound to put that person in hell.
Every Ahmadi will admit above mentioned facts, but never openly, because
the example of freedom of expression that exist in Ahmadiyya Jamaat, is not
seen anywhere else.
