Taqwa: The cure for All Decay – Episode 20


Listen Later

This episode provides an insight on an address by Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad regarding the vital importance of Taqwa (righteousness) and the necessity for a believer's internal state to match their outward claims. He emphasizes that for those who have pledged allegiance to a divinely commissioned teacher, righteousness is the only way to be delivered from malice, worldly attachments, and the "blemish" of sin, which can blacken the heart if left unchecked. He warns that historical failures of the faithful often occurred because their hearts were disposed to worldly interests despite their verbal declarations of faith, noting that even the Holy Prophet (sa) remained in fervent prayer because God is "Self-Sufficient" and not bound by hollow claims. Consequently, the rewards of true Taqwa include divine guardianship and provision from unexpected sources, which liberates a person from feeling compelled to use immoral means, such as lying, to achieve worldly success. Ultimately, this path leads to divine nearness, a state where Allah becomes the spiritual "eyes," "ears," and "hands" of the believer, granting them unique insight and responding to their every supplication.
