We are well aware of it that God Almighty created us, granted us an infinite number of blessings, provided us with uncountable eatables, and endowed us with comforts and luxuries so that we can live a comfortable life.
These benevolences of God demand that we should spend our whole life according to His Will. We should get a complete knowledge of His Directives, act upon them and avoid the deeds prohibited by Him. God, the Lord of the universe, rightly demands from human beings that they should only worship Him and they should not be deluded by the Satan, who is an evident enemy of the devotees.
God wants that man should not indulge in cruelty, bribery, nudity, obscenity, wickedness and other sins because these evils will lead him to destruction. Almighty God has bestowed this temporary and mortal life so that we spend the time devoid of the vices and the deceptions of the Satan and we should have trust in God and a thought for the world hereafter.
God, the Master of the worlds, has said that the sole objective behind the creation of man was that he must keep in his mind the Directives and Will of his Creator, and should not deviate from the limits fixed by Him. This practice of the human beings is called "worship". Almighty God clarified it by saying " and I did not create giants and humans but to worship Me " that the deeds of giants and men must be in accordance with His Will. If they violate it, it means they are deviating from the course set by their Creator.
If we ponder we can see that every creature of the universe is obeying the code scheduled by God, and is singing hymns in its own fashion. Animals, birds, insects, plants, mountains, wind and water, all the creatures, are abiding by the orders of God, and worshipping Him in their own way.
But, unfortunately, a majority of human beings is defying the principles prescribed by the Lord of the universe about their way of living. They are openly ignoring the edict of their Creator, and are committing every type of sins. The Satam is their open enemy, but they are joining hands with him in crusading a war against their Creator.
If we have a look on world society, we will find a majority of people neglecting the commands of God. Consequently, they have been surrounded by every kind of evils, issues and problems. Bribery, corruption, cruelty, nudity, obscenity and immorality have upset the pious people. The curses of terrorism, corruption, hoarding, deception, drugs, black-marketing, adulteration and smuggling have baffled every nation. Liars, sinisters and cheats are overpowering the nobles. Evasion of taxes and abuse of power have crippled the world economies, thus, making lives miserable for the poor.
Anti-social elements have made room among the politicians and are looting the exchequers. On the other hand, some religious leaders have sown seeds of sectarianism, prejudices and dissimulation in the societies. Rudeness, impertinence, insensibility oppression and injustice are leading the youth towards crime and tyranny. Every one is terrified by the rising trend of terrorism, kidnapping, dacoities, theft, pillage and gory violence. Selfishness, hypocrisy, slander and calumny have divided the societies into small groups and the use of contrabands and exccesive drinking are carrying immorality and immodesty to the utmost level.
The curse of dowry along with useless and futile expenses on wedding rituals and the oblivious way of mourning a death have become social evils in many poor countries. Misuse of the state property and the exchequer and exploitation of public rights at a large scale have created hatred among the people for each other and has initiated a race of materialism.
No segment of the world society is functioning satisfactorily and the nations have fallen prey to disasters. Every one is witnessing that terrorism and sectarianism, territorial, regional and linguistic prejudices and hatreds have engulfed the tolerance of the people and most of them are bent upon eliminating the others.
These are the evils which lead to inferno. But unfortunately these curses are flourishing, gradually. A majority of the world population has become a tool of Satan by accepting the tyranny, oppression and evils as inevitable. This majority is on its way to destruction by adopting the path full of sins due to its insensibility and ignorance.
How cruel ! People are rushing to hell but no one from among their relatives or friends is trying to prevent them, rather a unified race is continuing on way to inferno. What a pity! We are watching our loved ones marching towards hell but doing nothing to save them from this certain destruction. Perhaps, no one in the world is so cold-blooded that if he sees his loved ones, even a stranger, being burnt in fire but will do nothing to rescue him. How sad that no one is bothering about the hell-fire which is said to be 70-fold more warmer than the fire of this world. It seems that we all have gone mad or we are blind, deaf and dumb.
It is human nature that people rush to save a man who is in danger. If someone has been injured in a road accident, burnt, or drowned, the people present there try to help him at the risk of their own lives. Similarly, people are very much anxious about their loved ones, especially children. They always advise their off springs not to play with fire lest they are burnt; not to go deep into the water as they might drown; be careful on rooftop lest they fall; do not touch a live wire as it may endanger their life, run with care, do not jump from a higher place and do not play a dangerous game as it will be injurious to life.
Likewise, they tell everyone how to avoid various dangers and how to care about one’s life. These people do their best to protect others from the losses in this world, but how cruel and insensible they are that their flesh and blood are on way to inferno by transgressing the limits set by God -- and they will certainly experience the destruction -- but no one is endeavoring to protect them from the horrible torment of the hell-fire. It is the duty of every person that he should not waste even a moment to save his loved ones from inferno. He should be active till their reformation and try to restrict them from adopting the path that leads to hell.
The world is at the threshold of knowledge and technology on the one hand, but on the other, is facing economic and moral backwardness.. The evils are on the rise, the virtues are vanishing. There is no trait among us to be proud of and which can be presented to the coming generations as a precedent.
All the evils, which had ruined some previous nations, are at the extreme in the present world society. Ignorance, backwardness, poverty, tyranny and oppression have become our trade marks. It seems we have reached inferno before the Last Day. History tells us that such a situation arose in the nations which were being cursed by God.
It is feared that the members of previous generations will be accountable for their individual deeds on the Day of Judgement, but present generation will be thrown as a whole into hell after a collective prosecution, because the nobles of this generation remained as silent spectators instead of restraining the scamps from committing sins and misdeeds.
The Divine punishment to an ancient civilization seconds this fear. There were three groups in that nation. One was of knaves, the second was of the people who did good deeds but did not halt the disobedients from transgression. The third group was of the people who followed the Divine doctrines as well as restrained others from disobeying them. When God cursed the nation, the people exempted from this torment were those who had been observing the limits fixed by their Master and were stopping others from wrong doings as well.
In another happening, the residents of a town had been engulfed by an ocean of sins. However, there was a noble man who was always busy in worshipping God, but he never thought of persuading others to give up their bad ways. When God ordered angels to destroy the town, He said: " The town must be overturned on the person who was anxious to save himself from Divine punishment, but was not thinking to save others from it. "
According to the commands of God, an important quality of the serfs of God is that they always enjoin the right conduct and forbid the wrong. The God says: " Who can be better than the person who persuades others towards God, enjoins the right conduct, forbids the wrong and says that I am one of the obedients of God. "
The main objective and the basic target of the Movement is " enjoin the right and forbid the wrong." The Movement wants to bar the perverted people from falling into hell by eliminating the evil thinking from their minds and restraining them from every sort of cruelty, evil, vulgarity, obscenity and corruption etc.
According to the Aims & Objective of this Movement, the person who has not committed any crime which is liable to capital punishment, is worth reformation. Because capital punishment is awarded to someone only when he is unable to be reformed or he has committed a crime that is unforgivable, and rest of the sinners and criminals can lead an honourable life in the society after reformation.
1. For this purpose, the Movement wants to reform the perverts all over the world and to clean their thoughts. It wants to persuade them to the great mission of eradicating evils and preaching virtues after taking them out of their frustration. It wants to convince the people that according to the saying of God: " Disappointment is infidelity. " No matter how frustrating the circumstances are, the courageous and determined people change these circumstances with the help of God and their continuous struggle.
2. The Movement is asking all the humans irrespective of their colour, race, religion, creed and region, that God’s command is more respectable than that of our parents as He has created us and provided us with all the blessings and facilities to live comfortably in the world, and our existence in this world is due to His mercy, and we are enjoying thousands of favours blessed by Him. So no one should commit a deed which has been prohibited by God and which can lead him to inferno.
3. The Movement is urging every human to avoid all sorts of tyranny and oppression, bribery, evil, obscenity and exploiting the rights of others etc. Moreover, he should repent of his previous life and rather devote his energies to root out these evils. He should protect his family, friends and relatives, whom he loves, from these evils, make them repent of their sinful pasts, if any, change their habits and character so that they could be saved from the inferno. This is the command of God too: " O, the believers ! save yourself and your family from the hell-fire. "
4. People have gone mad in enjoying the delights of this world. For this purpose, they are committing all types of crime and sins, and are exploiting the rights of others, and in this way they are rushing to the inferno. The Movement is changing these preferences of the people and is creating in them, the fear of God and a thought for the world hereafter.
5. The Movement is working to make the society civilised, angelic, virtuous and modest, and wants the people to have such a great and impressive character that such movements should begin in all parts of the world after seeing the other mannered societies.
6. The Movement also wants to instill it in every man and make it a part of his belief that
his master is only and only the Almighty God and not any politician, ruler, trader, industrialist or feudal lord. So, it is a compulsion for everybody to struggle for earning his livelihood through legal and admissible means as directed by God. The livelihood attained through lawful means can become a medium to achieve the blessings of God in this world and immortal delights of heaven in the world hereafter.
