The Christian Action Network (CAN), a racist faction of hate mongers, has selected the Holy Shrine in the Village of Holy Islamville, York, South Carolina, one of the holiest places in America and the world, as a target for their campaign of hate and religious prejudice.  This obsessed group of anti social mis-fits greatly maligns Jesus, son of the chaste Mary, by calling themselves Christian.  Their sinister terrorist type tactics range from throwing bundles of hate pamphlets out of low flying planes over Muslim villages, to obstructing traffic in and out of the same, and agitating and harassing Muslim women and children.  Their literature and posters are crammed with rambling hateful venom and their public address system spews out inflammatory anti-Islam propaganda.  It is obvious that their underlying intent is to incite a clash between the followers of these two great religions.                                                             

        The serene Muslim village of Holy Islamville is not a place where a few children reside and happened to look up at the sky and saw a few clouds move and take shape. Actually, hundreds, if not thousands, of people, of different faiths, have visited the Holy Shrine from around the world and have beheld the miraculous manifestations and some have been cured of a number of different ailments as well. Local newspaper reporters have visited the Holy Shrine and witnessed and reported on what they beheld there.  Photographs and video recordings that support the miraculous manifestations are available for public viewing.

            It was on the 13th of Shabaan 1416, of the Hijri calendar, the 5th of January 1996, at the Banaa tun Noor, Ladies Retreat, held in Holy Islamville, York, South Carolina., USA, that those present were informed that a special dua, to be recited on the 15th of Shabaan-Shab-e-Bara’at, (the mid of the month that precedes the fasting month of Ramadan) was being faxed. Joyous cries of “Allahu Akbar” (God is Great) were heard when the fax machine came to life.  The sheet with the dua (prayer) on it appeared to have become jammed as it emerged but when it was retrieved, the message was completely intact.

            While the ladies began reading the fax, Afifa Begum looked up at the ceiling and noted a special sight.  “I looked and yelled, ‘Look! There’s a rainbow on the ceiling.”  Adeelah Ahmed went to the sink to see if the light reflecting off the water was causing the rainbow and found that the rainbow was not caused by any reflection.  However, she did find something else-- she found the name of Hazrat Muhammad (saw), appearing on the wall in vivid, shimmering and brilliant colors of green, yellow, blue and streaks of red. For a good 25 minutes the name of the Holy Last Messenger (saw) appeared on the right and on the left, a vivid rainbow appeared on the wall.  Each time someone tried to take a picture with a camera, both would disappear. When the camera was put down, both reappeared.  When some of the ladies tried to block the miraculous manifestations with their hands the name still appeared on the wall. 

           Amira Najah remarked, “Each letter was clear and easy to see and easy to trace. It was written as though it were a staircase and the meem was the highest step and the dal was the first step.”  Ladies kept coming in and out and the joy, ecstasy, and excitement were beyond compare. 

        The dua was faxed to the ladies by His Eminence, El Sheikh Syed Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani, El Hashmi, Al Hassani wal Hussaini, the Vice Chancellor of the Intl Quranic Open University with permission to recite it, along with the correct method of recitation. The dua was to be recited on the Nifs of Shabaan (middle night of Shabaan) and was written by El Sheikh Gilani’s direct ancestor, Ghausul Azam, Muhiyyuddin, Syed Abdul Qadir Gilani of Baghdad.                       

       There were at least 125 ladies on that blessed night, the 15th of Shaban, the Night of Predestination, at the Holy Shrine where much worship, dhikr and recitation took place and  it was then that the prayer was recited in Arabic.  The English version of the prayer follows: 

            Ya Allah, Thou favoreth all and needs the favor of no one.  O most Exalted and Supreme and Bestower of Rewards, there is no Deity save Thee,  O the “backbone” of those who seek Thy help and Thou art the Refuge of those who seek Thy protection and Thou art the Abode of Peace for those who are stricken with terror. 

            O, my Allah, if Thou hast written my name in Thy Book (Loh-e-Mahfooz) as unlucky, miserable or destitute or deprived of Rizq (provisions) in abundance, then Ya Allah delete that. 

            O, my Allah, for the sake of Thy Fadl (Favor) may my misery, my depravity, my destituteness and shortness of rizq (provisions ) be changed in Thy Book (of destiny) and be written as lucky, bestowed with rizq in abundance and may I be the one granted competency to do virtuous deeds because (Ya Allah) Thou hast spoken and Thou speakest the HAQQ (the truth) in Thy Revealed Book (Holy Quran) and Thy Messenger hast also spoken that,  “Allah deletes whatever He willeth and preserves whatever He willeth and with Him is the Book of Destiny (Holy Quran)”. 

            Ya Allah, for the sake of Thy greatest Tajjaly (Divine manifestation of His Noor (Light), Names or Words) during the mid-half night of Shaaban in which Almighty, All Wise gives judgment on every issue (to befall until next Shaaban) and fulfills it as well, we beseech and implore Thee (Ya Allah) to save us from all adversities, miseries, trials about which we know and don’t know but indeed Thou art the Best Knower, the most Exalted and Supreme One. Blessings be upon our Lord the Last Messenger Muhammad and upon his descendents, companions and walees (friends).  

                       Mrs. June, a Christian lady, began a conversation with a couple of Muslim ladies that reside in Holy Islamville, at a local shopping mall.  She disclosed that her husband’s health was failing and was encouraged by the Muslim ladies to visit the Holy Shrine where others had been cured of numerous ailments.   Shortly thereafter, Ms June and her husband, Muhammad Najjar, who was diagnosed with cancer, by doctors at Piedmont Medical Center, made a  visit to the Holy Shrine to pray for a cure. The personal name of Allah appeared before her on the walls of the room she was in but Ms. June could not read Arabic and did not realize what it was that she saw.  It wasn’t until Ms. June embroidered a tapestry to commemorate her visit that she was told and shown what she had seen. On her tapestry was embroidered the very name of Allah in Arabic script.  When her husband returned to Piedmont for further examination and treatment his doctors were amazed that the cancer was gone! No doubt this was done by the permission of the One Almighty Creator.   

            Sudanese Ambassador, Syed, Dr. Malik Hussein Hamid, President of the Sudanese Data Bank, member of the Sudan National Assembly and candidate for the Presidency of Sudan (2000) accepted the invitation of His Eminence, El Sheikh Syed Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani and arrived at the Holy Shrine on16th of December 2003 and engaged in  vigorous prayer, dhikr and contemplation. He dozed off and beheld beautiful manifestations. It impacted him so much that he dictated his account which was printed in both the U.S. and the Sudan and reads in part:                      

               “ I saw with my own eyes the following. Accompanying the witness of Allah ta’ala before whom I am responsible and will hold so, until I see Him on the Day of Judgment Inshaallah.           

                 I saw a cluster of rainbows spread over the eastern and southern walls of the house in such a way which indicated independence from presence of water in the area. These rainbows were of similar essence, but different from all those rainbows which I saw since I was young and associated with rainy days, clouds, and light. But these rainbows made me feel that they are associated with extraordinary happenings and they remained there even during dark and that was the amazing thing about it. They never changed their places which indicate their disassociation to other factors.                        

                This observation was then followed by the big culminating miracles and that was the presence of  the light at quite a number of places manifesting Arabic letters composing the Name of Allah (Jallah Jallalaho) very clearly displayed in a consistent and organized handwriting followed by the name of Rasulallah Muhammed (Salah allah alihy wasalam).                          

                On the corresponding wall, I saw the two Names forwarded by Shah Mubarak Gilani to be used for ziker by the followers.  Later on we came after dark to find the same rainbow and Allah’s name also showed on the walls. We all gathered and I gave a lecture about the issue which is already documented on tape and can be included with this statement since it was inspired by the scene itself. 

               I was cherishing my heart and mind in a unique blend when I went to my bed and saw the whole scene again.  When I came for Fajr prayers, I saw the same. During a short nap which I had in the shrine, I saw my son Hussein (10 years old) asking me why you did not take me to see these Karamat.  While I was there a Christian came to see the miracles and he confirmed the same.  My whole visit to this shrine was instigated, inspired, and ordered by the Maulana Shah Mubarik Gilani who made his orders to his followers to receive me and take me around. They really did it with Islamic generosity and love. 

              These accounts are not contrived stories but are in fact divine manifestations and are a sign of the divine mission of our blessed Sheikh...His Eminence El Sheikh Syed Mubarik Ali Shah Gilani El Hashmi, El Hassan wal Hussaini and The Almighty’s Love and Favor for this jamaat. 

            The residents of Holy Islamville and other villages of International Quranic Open University and Muslims of the Americas Inc.  are neither soldiers nor terrorists. Rather they are American citizens who are dedicated lovers of the One Almighty Creator and the Holy Last Messenger, and adhere to the Ten Commandments as do our good Christian brothers. We are working diligently to join forces with our Christian brethren through increased dialogue and cooperation and are helping and preparing for the return of Christ Jesus who will unite our two great religions into one.                       

              This campaign of hate against our leader and our organizations has been launched by the same ones who conspired and manipulated America into WWII by allowing the tragedy of Pearl Harbor despite having prior knowledge of the attack and the same culprits allowed  thousands of Christians and Muslims to die while knowing full well what was planned for the 11th of September, 2001; they  also knew about the planned bombing of the U.S. Marine barracks in Lebanon before it was carried out and did nothing to warn America of the impending danger. 

          Whatever the case, they will not be able to deter Muslim/Christian unity. Preparations and readiness are being made for the return of Jesus, born of the chaste Mary, and on his return he will settle things and expose the wrongdoers.  Those terrorist hate mongers may do what they will but they won’t be able to stop the inevitable. They should remember the wrath of God comes in many forms, floods, fires, earthquakes and tornadoes, etc.  “You reap what you sow” 

           Our work to bring Muslims and Christians together is divinely inspired and we will not be stopped. We don’t fear anything or any one, nor will we be intimidated or provoked. Nothing can stop us; nothing will change our goal for we are Sufis, and that is what makes us different. 

            These hate mongers will not goad us into a confrontation of their making. We will use every legal means to address them and avoid their scheme which is to wreak havoc and to destroy this nation. We know well who they are… These culprits are none other than the ADL and the JDL. This cult of vipers (CAN) in lamb’s clothing have nothing to do with Christ Jesus and shouldn’t even call themselves Christians. When Jesus returns he’ll expose their evil and give them their just due and  about that there is absolutely no doubt!!!
