Template:Infobox revolution biography

Younus AlGohar (Urdu: یونس الگوھر, born Mohammad Younus; June 16, 1970) is a spiritualist, a sufi and a humanitarian who lives in London, England. He is the co-founder of the spiritualist organization, Messiah Foundation International, as well as its sister organizations, Kalki Avatar Foundation and Mehdi Foundation International, all of which he formed under the apparent guidance of Ra Gohar Shahi to advocate the teachings of divine love and global peace based on the philosophy of divine love introduced by Ra Gohar Shahi. He is the managing director of the Interfaith Institute of Divine Love, as well as an author and poet. Messiah Foundation International claims that Younus AlGohar is the official representative of Ra Gohar Shahi.

AlGohar has a masters degree in Organic Chemistry. He has authored many articles on Spirituality as well as the book Mysterious Horizons - Beyond God (2007), and has mentioned the upcoming release of 'Declaration of Gohar Shahi's Mehdi-hood - in the light of the Qur'an & A'hadeeth' along with two others, in 2010 which are to be in English, Arabic & Urdu.

Authored books

Early life and work with Ra Gohar Shahi

Ra Gohar Shahi & Younus AlGohar during a program in the UK

Born in Karachi, Pakistan, AlGohar grew up practicing Islamic Sufism. However, he claims that nothing would satisfy his thirst for the truth until he met his spiritual master, Ra Gohar Shahi at the age of 15. On the subject of the meeting, he stated, “When I first looked at the comely face of Gohar Shahi, I felt instantly that I knew Gohar Shahi all along; long before we had even come to this world."

He spent 24 years under the discipleship of Gohar Shahi.

In 1999, Gohar Shahi was recorded in saying, “I will meet only Younus now, and Younus shall meet the world on behalf of me.”

Founding of MFI

After the disappearance of Gohar Shahi, AlGohar gathered a great portion of the following of Ra Gohar Shahi under the platform of Messiah Foundation International (MFI). It was founded in 2002, and its formation was heavily opposed by Anjuman-e-Safroshan-e-Islam, an organization based in Pakistan claiming to be associated with Gohar Shahi as well. The first centre for MFI was established in London, which is also the headquarters of MFI. Today, the organization has grown to include centres in Canada, USA, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Japan, Australia, India, Greece, Thailand, Bangladesh , Taiwan and Pakistan as well.

Accomplishments and works

He was named an ‘Ambassador for Peace’ by the Universal Peace Federation in 2005. He studied at the Karachi University and furthered his education by attending the Manchester University. He also took exam placements at Cambridge University.

Opposition

Anjuman Serfaroshan-e-Islam, an organization which also claims to be associated with Ra Gohar Shahi, rejects the teachings that AlGohar projects under the label of the Goharian Philosophy of Divine Love. Anjuman Sarfroshan-e-Islam seems to vehemently disapprove of AlGohar, and considers him as an enemy of Shahi, nevertheless, most senior members from the following of Gohar Shahi declare AlGohar to be a true reflection of Gohar Shahi in character and Spirituality. It is reported that Anjuman Serfaroshan-e-Islam officials do not allow their members to meet with him, because they fear he is a magician and he will convert all that meet him.. To the Pakistan-based organization, Anjuman Sarfroshan-e-Islam, AlGohar seemingly is a highly unapproachable person. Anjuman Sarfroshan-e-Islam allegedly blamed him to be an "agent of the Jews", and a dedicated enemy of Islam.

The Pakistani government has instigated cases of blasphemy against AlGohar, though the details on how he blasphemed have not been specified. The penalty for blasphemy under the laws of Pakistan is death.
