21,21 – The Secret Message from Rasulullah about Ahmad
Prophet Khidr AS came to me and greeted me with a smile. Then he said:
O Ahmad, truly, there is no sea without waves, nor is a ship considered strong if it breaks apart in the storm and waves of the ocean. Such is the parable of a servant of Allah who sails upon the sea of divine witnessing along the path of Allah. Rise, perform your prayer, and write down again what I am about to convey to you.
O Ahmad, there is no pain or suffering in the heart of a chosen servant when faced with slander and insults, for the heart of a chosen servant is distant from the love of the world. And such a servant never weeps for worldly matters except for the abundance of sins and injustices he witnesses — and then he rises to carry out Allah’s commands, until Allah sends him strong helpers. Truly, it is not an iron shield that protects a warrior, but his skill and intelligence in wielding it for defence. Such is the intellect and the heart — they are what safeguard a person from the temptations of Satan and lust.
O Ahmad, Allah has indeed decreed your path until you reach twenty-one and pass beyond twenty-one. None shall remain with you except those who understand that all your actions are by Allah’s command. Indeed, those who distance themselves after having sat and stayed with you shall find no happiness — save for a single day. Is there any path other than His? Truly, Allah intends to make of them either the finest or the worst examples of the end times — if only they understood. Has not Allah’s help become manifest upon your vessel? Then why do you still harbour doubt and fear?
And as for the first who understood that the Messenger of Allah had chosen him — surely, he is among the fortunate if he remains patient.
O Ahmad, I smile upon you because your noble grandfather came to me in a dream last night. He conveyed words about you that made me smile. He said, ‘O my brother Balya bin Malkan, keep my words as a secret until I reveal them to him one day before the Balance (Mizan).’
So be patient, O Ahmad, until you pass through the twenty-one and the twenty-one have passed.
O Ahmad, what you have seen is neither a burden upon you nor a falsehood. Indeed, your dream of two men stabbing you from behind, and your wives saving you, has come true — and verily, they are the ones most despised by Iblis. Let them be patient. And as for what came thereafter, it was not from your desire, for it was Allah who brought it forth. Allah has unfolded their story upon my turban and has saved your vessel by driving away the storm and tempest — except for those who chose to sail the sea with anger and ignorance; they shall not be saved but drowned in destruction.
O Ahmad, indeed what Allah has unfolded from 2023 until now is clear. You must fulfil your duties with justice and strive diligently in your trade until the twenty-one have passed.
Just as your noble grandfather once experienced, your trial is not unlike his — though the measure may differ. And that is what makes your noble grandfather, Muhammad, smile upon you. Be patient until the tremor occurs in your birthplace, and part of it is swept by strong winds — as a sign that you are not a liar.
Let those who are angry with you restrain their fury, and you, restrain them so that they remain within your dwellings — until the twenty-one have passed.
O Ahmad, let those who plan to open farmland and trade be patient until they understand what you teach and do. Blessings shall come only to the servants of Allah who understand the knowledge and pay their zakat. Let them wait for you. And as for those among your followers who take your paddy, let them plant it, and let them pay attention to all that you have taught them.
— Ahmad F. Bin Abdullah A. Syams —
