We are but an Actor

At the time when the world experienced the dark period after the demise of Prophet Jesus (AS), many from among Jesus followers swerved away from the teachings he brought. Jesus during his time didn’t claim as Messiah but many had have believed him today as such. Look how unjust human are.


Then said the priest: `How shall the Messiah be called, and what sign shall reveal his coming?'

Jesus answered: `The name of the Messiah is admirable, for God himself gave him the name when he had created his soul, and placed it in a celestial splendour. God said: "Wait Mohammed; for thy sake I will to create paradise, the world, and a great multitude of creatures, whereof I make thee a present, insomuch that whoso bless thee shall be blessed, and whoso shall curse thee shall be accursed. When I shall send thee into the world I shall send thee as my messenger of salvation, and thy word shall be true, insomuch that heaven and earth shall fail, but thy faith shall never fail." Mohammed is his blessed name.' Gospel of Barnabas

Didn’t the prophecy on this gospel come later? Muhammad is the Messiah which the gospel of Barnabas relay to us. Allah is indeed all-knower and best of planners.

After the downfall of Ottoman Empire one of the Sultanate’s states shared the same fate is the Sultanate of Sulu. Though the scenario is different, the cause of the collapse was done by the same ideology.


Prophet Muhammad (saw) has prophecy about what happening to the Sultanate’s governments and what transpiring after that.

Seventy five years have gone after Sultan Jamalul Kiram II the tyranny in Sulu didn’t receive yet quite a strong challenge that’d be able to extract it from the Sulu land until now. The oppressors until today are still with their political gimmick to win the hearts of the Tausug masses. But the tyrant just don’t realize, the more they bring in changes to Sulu the more problem would boomerang to them because Sultanate of Sulu is part of Allah’s plan.

Sulu in a state of chaos for more than hundred years has been destined to be so. Many Sultans egress to claim the throne of the Sultanate of Sulu is also part of Allah’s agenda. What have been done by these Sultans after becoming Sultans without sovereignty? Nothing, because Allah had chosen them to be like that in order to give way for the right Sultan who would rule the Sultanate of Sulu justly?


Lest we forget what the hadith of the Prophet (saw) tells us about the future of this world.

The Prophet (saw) said, “A member of my household will appear, and he will be granted the authority to act, he will fill the earth with justice, just as it was filled before with injustice. He is man with glory, faith, knowledge, sincerity, justice and a Divine Power. He will clean the world from East to West, from those whose purpose in life was to deceive people and to drag people into disputes and to torture people.”

Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani simplified the hadith above as follows: “After the Age of Tyrants will come a member from the Prophet’s household.” [ibid]

Is it the Tausug Citizens under the Sultanship of Sultan Bantilan Muhammad Muizzuddin II who have sent by Allah to accomplish the plan of Allah in the Sultanate of Sulu? Or the plan is still being process? Why the people of the world are now shouting for the Sultanate government? Why???

All this, perhaps, is just easy to the mind of the oppressors. But beware triumphant is always on the side of righteous. Look what was happening to the Romans through the hands of the followers of Prophet Muhammad?

We are in this world are just like watching in the cinema of life, we are just an actor of a play but we are no script writer and director – Allah possessed all that rules.    

Ya Allah to you I will return all the ideas flowed in this mind.
