So Says The Promised Messiahas
The Third Source: The Soul at Rest
Then there is a third source, which signifies the beginning of the spiritual state. The Holy Qur’an describes it as Nafs-e-Mutma’innah [the soul at rest]; it says:
(Part 30, Ruku‘ 14)
This means that: ‘O tranquil soul that has found peace in God, return to thy Lord well pleased with Him as He is well pleased with thee. Join My chosen servants and enter My Paradise.’
This is the stage at which the soul, having been delivered from all weakness, is filled with spiritual strength and has such a relationship with God Almighty that it cannot
live without Him. Just as water flows downwards and rushes forth because of its sheer volume, and removes all obstacles in its way, so does the soul flow towards God. It is to this state that the Divine injunction refers: ‘O soul that has found peace in God, return to Him.’ It brings about a great transformation, not only after death, but also in this very life, and is granted a paradise in this world even before the hereafter.

Understanding the verses
Chapter 89 Verses 28 – 31
The last four verses of the Surah constitute a befitting climax. They purport to say that he who acquires the prerequisites for full moral development, mentioned in the foregoing verses, becomes immune to all possibility of faltering or falling. He attains the highest stage of spiritual development; "he is well pleased with his Lord and his Lord is well pleased with him." At this stage, called the heavenly stage, man is freed from all weakness and frailty and is braced with a peculiar spiritual strength. He becomes "united" with God and cannot exist without Him. As water flows with great force down a slope and, on account of its great mass and the total absence of all obstacles, dashes down with irresistible force, so the God-intoxicated man, at this stage, casting off all trammels, becomes attracted unrestrainedly towards his Maker. It is in this life and not after death that this great transformation takes place in him and it is in this world and not elsewhere that access to Paradise is granted to him. He finds his support only in God; He drinks deep at this fountain of spiritual life and is delivered from death.

Salat
The Promised Messiahas while explaining the importance of congregational prayers to the Jama'at says:
"The rationale behind putting more reward in congregational prayers is that it creates unity. The instructions to practically implement unity are so particular that even the feet are required to be aligned." This means that while offering prayers in rows, feet should also be brought into line, for which heels must be aligned. He further says, "and the rows must be straight, and (worshippers) should be standing connected to each other. It means that they must act like one being." By standing in rows, they will turn into one being, meaning there will be a dynamism in them. "So that one's illuminations can permeate into others. The disparity that gives birth to ego and selfishness, does not last (in such setting).“
Friday sermon, delivered by Hadrat Khalifatul-Masih Vaba January 20th ,2017
Al Wasiyyat
The knowledge that I have been granted about the calamities is none other than that death will run rampant on all sides, that earthquakes of such severity will occur as will provide a foretaste
of the Day of Judgment. The earth will be turned upside down and the lives of many will become agonizingly distressing. Then, those who repent and forsake sin, to them Allah will show mercy.
As all the Prophets (as) had prophesied about this age, it was inevitable that all this should have come to pass. But those who set their hearts aright and follow the ways favored by God shall have no fear or grief.
Zahanat
Who discovered that the earth revolves around the sun?
How many bones are there in an ear?
Where would you be if you were standing on the Spanish Steps?

Each human ear has three bones known as ossicles; the malleus, incus, and stapes (also known by their shape as the hammer, anvil, and stirrup, respectively). All of the ear bones are in the middle of the ear. The outer ear and inner ear are boneless.
The Spanish Steps (Italian: Scalinata di Trinità dei Monti) in Rome, Italy, climb a steep slope between the Spanish Plaza known as the Piazza di Spagna at the base and Piazza Trinità dei Monti, dominated by the Trinità dei Monti church, at the top.
In 1543, Nicolaus Copernicus detailed his radical theory of the Universe in which the Earth, along with the other planets, rotated around the Sun. His theory took more than a century to become widely accepted.
