Rasm e Milaad is one of the outstanding, celebrated and most awaited Rasm from Rusoomaat e Da'wat.  The month of Rabi' ul Awwal along with the Bushraa-glad news of Rasoolullaah SAWS's birth, brings the glad tidings of the Milaad of our 45th Da'i e Mutlaq Saiyedna Abu Sa'eed il Khayr Dr. Haatim Zakiyuddin saheb TUS on 8th of this month.  The 69th Milaad e Haatemi was marked by majaalis e Masarraat held for its jashn- celebration organised by various committees.

On the auspicious eve of this Milaad along with the 34th Milaad of Mazoon ud-Da'wat il Alaviyyah DM, a heartfelt Ziyaafat was organised by Razaakaar of Masjid e Nooraani, in the soulful sign of mahabbat, shukr and khidmat. A select gathering of Mumineen who are regular Namaazis of Masjid e Nooraani were invited after maghrib namaaz making it memorable filled with warmth, brotherhood and countless blessings. A moment that will forever remain close to the hearts of all present was that they got a distinguished opportunity of having a Yaadgaar Tasweer with our beloved Aaqa Maulaa TUS.

On the mubaarak day of Milaad, after the Fajr namaaz, Majlis e Masarrat was held at Masjid e Nooraani by Anjuman e Azaa e Husain.  In the evening, for the first time the Milaad celebrations were held at Masjid e Shehaabi.  Da'wat e Shareefah invited khaass ul khaass Mumineen in this special event with Ta'aam o Ikraam.  Milaad Bayt "Aaj Mawlid hai Haatim Shahaa ka," "Haatim Shahaa Aye Ziyauddin Sardaar ke Dildaar, Milaad Mubaarak," was recited in the Majlis.  Aqaa Maulaa TUS planted a Lemon tree sapling near the masjid in Jannat ul Mumineen.

Aqaa Maulaa TUS honoured and remembered the outstanding khidmat and noble spirit of Khass Mumineen and committees.  Their untiring efforts were applauded by the Mumineen present in the Majlis with the nidaa of Subhaanallaah and Jazaakallaah.  They were, Nayebali & Aliasghar Dholkawala, Zaakirali Sorangwala, Ismail Chaaliyerwala, Zakiyuddin Kothiwala, Anjuman e Shubbaan e Najmi, Mayyet company and Alavi Nature Group.  Mumineen got an opportunity of doing Istiqbaal and Qadambosi of Aqaa Maulaa TUS by offering Hadiyaat and Nawaazishaat.

Some of the excerpts from the bayaanaat of Aqaa Maulaa TUS delivered in various majaalis,

1. O my Mumineen! This Khushi of my Milaad encompasses the whole jamaa'at.  It is the Milaad of everyone.  I am your Ruhaani Waalid and you all are my children.

2. O my Mumineen!  By coming in Namaaz you are giving life to masjid.  Masjid calls you every time to bring your shabaab along with you.  If you are Namaazi then you should prepare a person like you who will be following your footsteps for namaaz.

3. O my Mumineen!  People often live for their own gains and safety.  But you are Mumineen.  You are different from others.  Take some time out for community services.  This khidmat will build our community strong for our children.

4. O my Mumineen! Don't forget Ihsaanaat of people who have come forward to help you in distress.  Today I remember Sultaa Ali bhai S Barodawala and Dr Fakhruddin bhai T Padaria for their valuable advice for my educational journey in Mumbai.

5. O my Mumineen! This Pratapnagar area of our Qabarastaan will be like Marine drive of Mumbai.  This place is a gold-mine where our Marhumeen are buried since 300 years.  It is the time to redevelop this Shehaabi masjid and its adjoining areas and to create facilities for those who come from outside Vadodara.

6. O my Mumineen! A book has a potential to become a Legacy and a lantern of Life-long learning.  My grandfather Saiyedna Yusuf Nuruddin saheb AQ gave this literary legacy where he wrote Maraasi, Salaams and Aayaat ul Qur'an of Walaayat in 1389 and 1393 AH.  He gracefully handed a Hafti and said to me to memorize it.  I did it and recited the Marsiyah of M. Ali Akbar AS at the age of 10 during the Asharah Mubaarakah of 1389 AH in the house of Yunus bhai Boxwala.

7. O my Mumineen! Our children are very precious to us.  Birthday reminds us to guide them and make them aware about family commitments, relations and values.  By every passing year, we tie a new knot in our life-rope to make ourselves and our loved ones to care and remain attach with one another in the testing time of social media and mobile addiction.
