“Know that Allah Blessed and Exalted did not Legalise any food, nor any drink, except for what is in it from the benefits and the health, and did not Prohibit except for what is in it from the harm and the spoilage, and the corruption. Thus, every benefit strengthening for the body in it is strength for the body, it is Permissible.”

“O Sa’d, learn the Holy Quran; on the Day of Judgment the Holy Quran will come in the best form that people may have ever seen. People will be present in one hundred thousand and twenty rows: the followers of Prophet Muhammad will form eighty thousand rows. The other forty thousand rows will consist of the followers of the other prophets. The Holy Quran will come to the rows of the Muslims in the form of a well-shaped man, offer them the greeting of peace and they look to him and say to each other, ‘No one deserves to be worshipped except Allah, the Lord, the Merciful. We know from the signs and qualities he is a martyr, however, he has been of the martyrs at sea, thus, he has received this beauty and grace that is not given to us.“Then he will come before Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Blessed, the Most High, and will bow down below the Throne. “Allah, the Most Blessed, the Most High, will speak to the Holy Quran saying, ‘My true spoken words and authority on earth, look up and ask for your wishes. Your wishes shall be granted and your intercession shall be accepted. How did you find my servants?’ “The Holy Quran will then say, ‘My Lord, certain ones among them kept me safely protected and did not lose anything from me but others among them lost me and disrespected me and called me lies even though I was Your authority to all of Your creatures.’ Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, then will say, ‘I swear by My Majesty, Greatness and Highness that I shall give the best reward on this day because of you and shall punish severely because of you.”

“When mischief confuses you like a dark night you must hold to the Holy Quran; it is an intercessor (an associate whose association is beneficial) whose intercession will be accepted and a solicitor whose words are believed.

Forbidden to you are carrion, blood, and swine; what is slaughtered in the name of any other than Allah; what is killed by strangling, beating, a fall, or by being gored to death; what is partly eaten by a predator unless you slaughter it; and what is sacrificed on altars. You are also forbidden to draw lots for decisions. This is all evil. Today the disbelievers have given up all hope of ˹undermining˺ your faith. So do not fear them; fear Me! Today I have perfected your faith for you, completed My favour upon you, and chosen Islam as your way. But whoever is compelled by extreme hunger—not intending to sin—then surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Quran, 5:3)

Say, “My Lord has only forbidden open and secret indecencies, sinfulness, unjust aggression, associating ˹others˺ with Allah ˹in worship˺—a practice He has never authorized—and attributing to Allah what you do not know.” (Quran, 7:33)
When our Qaim-ajfj rises, the earth will shine with the Noor (light) of its Lord-azwj and the servants would be needless from illumination of the sun, and the darkness would go away, and the man in his-ajfj rule would live until a thousand males are born for him, no female being born among them. And the earth will reveal its treasures until the people would see it upon its surface, and the man from you would seek someone he could help with his wealth and take from his Zakaat, he will not find anyone to accept that from him. The people would be needless due to what Allah-azwj would have Sustained them from His-azwj Grace’’.

‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘The knowledge is of twenty-seven letters. What the Rasool-saww had come with are two letters. So the people until today do not know other than the two letters.
