In 1967, for example, when the late king Zahir Shah of Afghanistan visited Pakistan, the Anjuman published a lengthy petition, urging the king to take up “the divinely ordained task of making India Muslim”. In his support, the writer quoted verses from Q3, along with other visions and predictions.62 The Pakistani branch also revived the Anjuman’s militant wing, Hizbullah, and the latter’s commandant, Habibullah Shah, published in September 1971 a booklet entitled Haqiqat-i-Qiyam-i-Pakistan Ba-tausiq-i-Bisharat (“The Truth of the Foundation of Pakistan as Confirmed by Prophecies”).63 Bisharat presents to the reader four “prophetic” poems: the first is Q2 (39 couplets), the second (43 couplets) and third (56 couplets) are actually a hugely extended version of Q3, though presented as two separate poems, while the fourth is Q1 (27 couplets). The poet’s name is given as “Ni’matullah Shah Wali”, who was “born at Samarqand, [but] lived and served mankind in Kirman and Kashmir.” The new verses in Q3 are deplorable as poetry, and a great many are merely harangues, ordering the Muslims to become “truly” Muslim. More interestingly, the verse containing the name “Habibullah” – in the past interpreted as referring to an Afghan Amir – is interpreted as referring to the author of the booklet, under whose command victory was assured in any jihad against India.64 The Anjuman booklet might not have gained much circulation in 1971 – the version of Q3 in Chatan in 1972 ran to only 59 verses, 40 less than in Bisharat – but with the passage of time it seemingly gained wider readership. Either through the Anjuman’s followers in the north-west or because of its strong message of a jihad against India, the Bisharat versions of Q2 and Q3 attracted attention in Pakistan’s armed forces, as is evident in a book entitled Crusade?.65 Its author, Ghulam-e-Muhammad Khair-ul-Bashar Farooqi confides to his readers that he regarded a Major Muhammad Amir Afzal Khan as his “spiritual father” and felt very close to “the faithful” of the Lashkar-i-Taiba. Mainly his book is a screed against an alleged “Jewish-Christian Crusade” to destroy Islam, and reprints someone else’s Urdu translation of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. But its 10th chapter (23 pages) is on the Ni’matullahi “prophecies”, which he uses to augment his brief that both India and the US shall fail in their conspiracy against Islam and Pakistan and eventually destroy themselves in the process. According to Farooqi, the Shah’s “prophecies” were nearly a thousand years old, and had so far turned out to be true “word for word”. “In fact”, he adds, “the so-called prognosticators and astrologers of the west stole from the Shah in order to gain a name for themselves”. Farooqi states that he obtained a booklet containing the “prophecies” – Q3 (74 couplets) – from a Colonel Abdur Ra’uf, and that the English translations/commentaries he offers were done by Colonel Matlub Husain, Colonel Abdul Qadir, Colonel Muhammad Hamid, and Muhammad Din.66 His chapter carries three titles: (1) “A Spiritual Overview”, (2) “What Is Going to Happen in the Next One Thousand Years?” (3) “547 AH [1152 AD]” In other words, his readers could expect the “prophecies” to come true within the next 150 years. A few things in Farooqi’s version deserve more notice. The verses concerning the Afghans appear under a subheading: “Start of the Afghanistan Jihad, 1979”. The name Habibullah – once interpreted as the “King of Afghanistan” – is translated as an expression: “Friend of Allah”. Similarly, the name Usman in another couplet – an earlier writer identified him as the Nizam Usman Ali Khan – is now taken to refer to the third Caliph. Another couplet is given an unusual twist: “All the enemies of Islam will be crushed. The Creator would in his (sic) Infinite Mercy bring forth a person named Akram, for the purpose.”67 The warrior-translators also place much hope in the Turks, whom they expect to launch the final campaign against the west, lasting six years. “The divine punishment will be so severe that [most of Europe and the United States] will become a forgotten story. The christianity (sic) will never raise its head again.”68 Then the promised Mahdi shall make his appearance and bring human history to its prophesied end. Zaid Hamid’s pamphlet, available across the world on the internet, is the latest chapter in this long and dismal story.69 Its title, “Ni’matullah Shah Wali”, clearly indicates Hamid’s source, for that arrangement of the name occurs only in the Anjuman’s booklet. All other books have: “Shah Ni’matullah Wali”. Hamid also makes the relationship more explicit by devoting one page to the Anjuman, adding: “Deendar Anjuman is not a product of human mind; it is a spiritual (ruhani) Islamic movement.” Hamid’s ambition for his pamphlet is revealed in its URL: “The Muslim Nostradamus, Prophecies in Urdu”. His selection of verses is organised under three headings: “Forecasts for the Past”; “Forecasts for the Present”; and “Forecasts for the Future”. Not bothered by poetic or chronological incongruence, he grabs any “prophecy” that serves his purpose. And so he takes a verse from Q3 to “prophesy” the role of the Mukti Bahini in 1971-72, and another from Q2 to “prophesy” the fall of Dhaka, then lists them next to each other as if they were from a single poem. Hamid is obsessed with the so-called Ghazwat-al-hind or Islam’s conclusive triumph over India. The final section of his version, “Prophecies for the Future”, is exclusively devoted to it. Hamid starts with the verse in Q2 about Shah-i-Gharbi, the “Western King”, following it with a verse from Q3, which he interprets: “God will manifest His special favour upon the Muslims of Western Pakistan (sic), and their hands will display power to act”. In other words, Hamid suggests that instead of an Afghan king it could be a man from Pakistan or someone from among “the Western Faithful” (mominan-i-gharbi) who would undertake the final jihad. Then, Hamid assures his readers, men from Afghanistan, China, Iran, Turkey, and the Arab countries will join him, while the Indian Muslims will rise in revolt. After a battle raging for six years, India will become entirely Muslim, and a Muslim king would rule it for 40 years. Then will come the anti-Christ, followed by the Mahdi and Jesus, and finally an end to the world, as we know it.70 Rooh-e-Islam Problems of Islamic World And Solution!!
