Angles Descend upon persons who are trying to becomes Pious.

The faith of Muslims is so strong that if the whole world unites to destabilize
it, even then they can't do so.
" The angles decent on them (from time to time):"fear you not! (they suggest),
Nor Grieve! But receive the glad tidings of the garden (of bliss) the which you
were promised!"
When does this happens? Some interpreters said that it will happen in JANNAT
and some said at the time of death the reality is that it will happen in life
before death, when a fellow becomes a true and an obedient one and why should
it not happen? The whole world calls him mad insane. The relatives even the
parents the parents oppose him. This slave of ALLAH TAALA replies to their
criticisms.
" If the whole human race becomes angry with me, I don't care, the consent of
the beloved matters. It is enough if one consider His concords first and then
decide what he should do and what he shouldn't."
If the whole world is against, it doesn't matter, it is fine if the LORD (ALLAH
TAALA ) is pleased, how much courage is produced? If angles did not support his
heart then how could this be possible. As the angels reinforced the
SAHABAH-E-KARAM in the field of Badar where HAZOOR-E-AKRAM was also present. At
first Allah Taala reinforced the SAHABAS by thousand angles. Then it was
increased to three thousand and finally up to five thousand. Though only one
angle was sufficient. He would have destroyed the whole army, as the nation
before were destroyed and ruined; HAZRAT GIBRAIL, alaihissalam, once lifted up
the whole village and while turning it up side down threw it back. When one
angle has so much of strength then you can imagine the strength of thousand of
angles. These thousand of angle were sent in honor of the SAHABHS other wise
there wasn't a need for such many. The point to think here is, the group of
SAHABAHS were the most favorite of ALLAH TALLA,
The whole nation (UMMAH) stands no where in comparison with them. Secondly
ALLAH's prophet HAZRAT MOHAMMAD MUSTAFA was also present with them, even ALLAH
TAALA made to descend thousands of angles. Now when fourteen hundred years have
passed, a Muslim who is weak and feeble, and considering his remoteness from
HAZOOR-E-AKRAM's time what do you think? Will ALLAH TAALA leave him alone? Not
at all. This is just abusrd. This Muslim is very feeble and more deserving for
ALLAH's mercy. If then five thousand angle descended then today twenty thousand
are required to descend instead they are being descended. If it wasn't so then
how was it possible that such courage was generated in the hearts of Muslims.
How could he face bare handed the battalions of the Satan. It's for sure!
ALLAH's invisible help is accompanying him, the angels are descending upon him
and are helping to build up the courage.
Prayer.
May ALLAH TAALA make all of us His real true fellow creature. Make us true and
strong Muslims. Give us the courage and the passion to think for the world here
after . In last repeat the invocation again.
