From the Realities of Mawlana (Q) as taught by Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi

أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

A’uzu Billahi Minash Shaitanir Rajeem
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan
In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

Alhamdulillahi Rabbil ‘aalameen, was salaatu was salaamu ‘alaa Ashrafil Mursaleen, Sayyidina wa Mawlana Muhammadul Mustafa ﷺ. Madad ya Sayyidi ya Rasulul Kareem, Ya Habibul ‘Azeem, unzur halana wa ishfa’lana, ‘abidona bi madadikum wa nazarekum.

Atiullah wa atiur Rasul wa Ulil amre minkum. Always a reminder for myself ana abdukal ‘ajeez, wa dayeef, wa miskin, wa zhalim, wa jahl, and but for the grace of Allah (AJ) that we are still in existence.

أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا الرَّسُولَ وَأُولِي الْأَمْرِ مِنكُم… ﴿٥٩﴾‏ …

4:59 – “…Atiullaha wa atiur Rasula wa Ulil amre minkum…” (Surat an-Nisa)

“…Obey Allah, obey the Messenger, and those in authority among you…” (The Women, 4:59)

Ramadan Carries Ismullah: Al-Muntaqim, The One Whom Avenges and Ismur Rasul: Sayyidina Zu Fadl ﷺ, the Possessor of Divinely Grace

Alhamdulillah, holy month of Ramadan has begun and the month of Qur’an, the month of light, of Allah’s (AJ) endless and infinite rahmah (mercy). As a reality of the entryway of 81 – 9 times 9. The sultan (king) of the month under the realities of the sultanate (kingdom) of 9 and the 81st name of Allah (AJ) Al-Muntaqim, The One Whom Avenges. The 81st name of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, Sayyidina Zu Fadl ﷺ, the Possessor of Grace, the one whom has grace of Divine grace and rahmah (mercy). The 81st surah (chapter) of Holy Qur’an, Surat Al-Takwir.

Ramadan is the Great Reset of the 12 Holy Months

The overwhelming and the immensity of the surah all about the overwhelming of judgment day and how Allah (AJ) will bring everything down for the reality of judgment day. This is the great reset reality of Ramadan in which our judgment day or our whole life is like this 12 months in which Allah (AJ) resets the whole 12 months by the power of Ramadan and returns the servant to a nuqt (dot), pure and purified, inshaAllah.

The hijab (veil) of the tajalli (manifestation) from Allah (AJ) dress eternally upon the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is “Subhana man taqarrab bil qudrati wal baqa.” ‘Glory be to Him who draws near His Omnipotence and Immortality.’

سُبْحَانَ مَنْ تَقَرَّبْ بِالْقُدْرَةِ وَالْبَقَا

“Subhana man taqarrab bil qudrati wal baqa.”

“Glory be to Him who draws near to His Power/Omnipotence and Eternal Existence”

Do Nothing But Abstain With Your Senses This Month to Be Dressed by Allah (AJ)

Alhamdulillah, the endless blessings of Laylatul Qadr (The Night of Power) and the oceans of qadr and power that Allah (AJ) dressing upon this holy month of Ramadan. We pray that Allah (AJ) dress us from the realities of the first ten days of Ramadan is Baab ur-Rahmah (the Gate of Mercy).

عَنْ سَلْمَانِ اَلْفَارِسِيْ رَضِيْ اللهُ عَنْهُ، أَنْ رَسُوْلُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قال: ” شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ أَوَّلُهُ رَحْمَةٌ، وَأَوْسَطُهُ مَغْفِرَةٌ، وَآخِرُهُ عِتْقٌ مِنَ النَّارِ.” [ الإمَامْ اَلْألْبَانِي، مِشْكَاةْ اَلْمَصَابِيح ، كتاب ٧، حديث ٩]

‘An Salman al Farsi (ra), an Rasulullahi ﷺ qala: “Shahru Ramadana awwalahu rahmatun, wa awsatuhu maghfiratun, wa akhiruhu ‘itqun minan naar.” [Al Imam al Albani, Meshkat al Masabih, Kitab 7, Hadith 9]

Narrated by Salman al Farsi (ra), that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, “The first (ten days) of the month of Ramadan is mercy, the middle (ten days) is forgiveness, and the last (ten days) is salvation/freedom from the fire.”
[Al Imam al Albani, Meshkat al Masabih, Book 7, Hadith 9]

That without the mercy opening it would be impossible to even enter into Ramadan and enter into the intention of fasting. It’s Allah’s (AJ) infinite mercy that He inspires within the souls of His servants that come to this action that is basically telling us, ‘Do nothing. It’s just abstain. Stop eating. Stop talking. Stop listening. Stop all the bad things that you do in your state of stopping and abstaining. I’m going to dress you from what no eyes have seen and no ears have heard, no states that could be imagined,’ the realities in which Allah (AJ) wants to dress His servants.

Ramadan is an Immense Cleansing of Our Bad Character and Difficulties

So, this is an immense gift, an immense reset in our physical life in which this 12 months, we’ve been journeying. Every cycle at every point is 12 months from the time we left Ramadan to the time we came back to Ramadan is an immense cleansing. That Allah (AJ) is washing all of the badness away, all of the difficulties and bad character.

By means of siyam (fasting), all the dress and blessings that we could have never achieved by any physical action, Allah (AJ) is granting us by abstinence and abstaining. So, it’s an immense rahmah and this love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and love of the prophetic reality because Allah (AJ) wants us to love that which is pure and to live a life through a physical example.

Tariqah Emphasizes that Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is Our Golden Standard in Islam

If we don’t describe the example of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, then what are people to judge a character? It means can they judge it by a Divine standard. Then everybody would have their own interpretation and so awliya (saints) come to perfect our faith and say, ‘No, judge it by creation and the best of creation’ because everybody would give an example, ‘Oh, God wants this from us but who are we? We can’t accomplish it.’ They make up things in other faiths based on what they believe God’s standard is. For tariqah (spiritual path) and Islam, but especially for tariqah who upholds the realities of Islam, the golden standard is Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.

That we don’t deviate and leave from that way and that what we call the sunnah (traditions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) and the way of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. It keeps us straight so that we know the golden standard and the standard in which Allah (AJ) wants from His servants so that Allah (AJ) will be happy. To dress the servant is the way that Prophet ﷺ brought for us as a reality and as a result is a mercy. That when we follow the way of Prophet ﷺ, the example, the love and the character, it dresses us with a mercy from Allah (AJ) and gives to us our standard. Not what you say and I say and she say and they say but what was the way of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and try our best to emulate that way of rahmah and mercy.

Be Dressed With Rahmah Through Your Love of Prophet ﷺ

As a result of this love and salawats (praises upon prophet Muhammad ﷺ) and all of these teachings, Prophet ﷺ then accompanies those. You will be with whom you love.

عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: … فَقَالَ (رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ): ” أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ.” ]اَلْمَصْدَرْ: مُسْلِمْ:. ٧٥٢٠ ]

‘An Anasin (ra): … Faqala (Rasulullahi) ﷺ: “Anta ma’a man ahbabta.”

Narrated Anas ibn Malik (ra) that …the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: “You will be with whom you love.” [Source: Muslim 7520]

So, the best of those to love is the reality of the prophet of Islam, the prophet of Allah (AJ). That when we love his way, love his character and send our salawats and make our example about that perfection, then our companionship through this gate of Ramadan is the light and the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. As a result, that’s a rahmah (mercy). That mercy dresses us and encourages our soul and our body: enter into this gate.

Shaitan Continuously Tries to Burn Us Like He Did With Sayyidina Ibrahim (as)

What appears to be and the fire of Nimrod because every story of the Bible and Qur’an and all holy books, they are eternally right now. It means that at every moment in life, the devil casts a fire. He wanted to burn Sayyidina Ibrahim (as) so his agents, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of that time, decided to make a fire to burn the prophet (as) of Islam, to burn the prophet (as) of Allah (AJ), Sayyidina Ibrahim (as). But our life has that daily example. That anytime we’re on the way of Allah (AJ), shaitan wants to make a fire to burn us, make a fire that appears to be of a difficulty.

Science Confirms Fasting is Beneficial for Your Health

Many people look to Ramadan and they say, ‘My gosh, how are you going to do that? It’s too hard. It’s too difficult’. Some people even try to push you to say that, ‘It’s actually harmful. Did you know fasting that long is not good for you?’ Every medical advice now is actually saying that’s a lie. Fasting is good for you. Now doctors and Dr Berg and famous western doctors who have all these TikToks and YouTube actually says that Ramadan is the cure to cancer. That the people whom enter annually into Ramadan, it significantly reduces cancerous toxicity within the body because cancers and sicknesses, they thrive on sugar and food. So, the ones whom eat continually, they have an abundance of sugars and everything in their body.

So, now even medicine is coming in and say, ‘No, actually fasting is great.’ If we practice intermittent fasting which was the way of Sufism that you were to eat one time a day. So, if you stop eating at 11 o’clock, 9 o’clock and you don’t eat again for another 18 hours or 14 hours or 15 hours is what they call intermittent fasting which has a tremendous resetting on the body. When the body is abstaining from food and has the ability to clean itself, protect itself, rejuvenate itself, it means then many, many realities towards that blessing. That the people whom even come to make a fire and say, ‘No, it’s difficult.’ All wrong and all lies. That the reality of this blessing resets the body, purifies the body and infinite reality of what it does upon the soul that can’t even be described or understood.

Shaitan’s Only Power is to Cast an Illusion Upon Our Minds

So, it means then everything in our life is about shaitan making a fire for us. It’s merely an appearance of fire because he has no ability to make that fire. Shaitan has no ability to punish people. They punish themselves by listening to shaitan, right? Shaitan can’t make Ramadan hard. He’s tied up. He can’t make any fire to burn the servant. His only power is the power of illusion that he cast an illusion upon a servant’s mind and those whom their life is governed by their head and what they call headstrong because the nafs (ego) is in the head, but Allah (AJ) is in the heart.

Faith is in the heart. When your life is about your head being strong and your head knowing everything, thinking you know everything, it means shaitan up there in the head of these people. As a result of being headstrong, he can cast the illusion and delusion within the mind of people, ‘Ramadan is hard’ like a fire because we said now will be even more significant.

Beware of Dajjal: His Fire is Paradise and His Paradise is Hellfire

Prophet ﷺ described the time of dajjal (man of deceit) which is right now. Their messiah will give his coordinance of when he’s starting. The time of dajjal has entered in and now. Prophet ﷺ described that dajjal will cast something as a fire, know that it’s paradise.

He’ll tell you something that’s paradise, know that it’s jahannam (hellfire) and exactly they’re doing that now. ‘Come to our way,’ and if you come that way of ease and go that way of whatever dajjal and their messiah will be teaching is a path towards jahannam and hell. Everything they want to say from the way of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, they say, ‘It’s like a fire. It’s hard. Don’t do it’ and that’s paradise.

عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَاَلَ: قَاَلَ رَسُوُلُ اَلَلَّهِ ﷺ: مَعَهُ (أَيَ اَلَدَجْاَلَ) جَنّةً وَنَاَرْ. فَنَارُهُ جَنَّةٌ، وَجَنَّتُهُ نَارٌ (َرَوَاَهُ مُسْلِمْ)

‘An Huzaifa qala, qala Rasulullahi (saws): “Ma’ahu (aya al dajala) jannatan wa naar, fanaruhu jannatun, wa jannatuhu naarun.” (Rawahu Muslim)

Narrated Huzaifa (ra), that the messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: “He (Dajjal (the man of deceit) has the paradise and the hellfire. His fire is paradise, and his paradise is hellfire. (Narrated by Muslim)

You Fall for Shaitan’s Delusion If You’re Headstrong – Activate Your Heart!

All the limit of shaitan (satan) is only on the mind. All he can control is the delusion. If you’re headstrong, you hear it, you believe it and then you’ll act upon it and you burned yourself. Shaitan has no power. The tariqahs (spiritual paths) come teach you – meditate, do your zikrs (Divine remembrance), connect with the shaykh. Why? Activate your heart. The heart is the house of Allah (AJ). Shaitan can’t enter the heart. He’s scared of the heart. He’s not interested in the power that emanates in the heart because he’s scared of Allah (AJ).

The one whom does zikr (Divine remembrance), the one whom has love of Prophet ﷺ, Allah (AJ) is within his heart. Allah’s (AJ) there, not in the brain of the servant. Allah (AJ) resides within the heart of the servant.

قَال رَسُولَ اللَّه ﷺ، قَالْ اللَّه عَزَ وَجَلْ: ” قَلْبَ الْمُؤْمِنْ بَيْتُ الرَّب.” [حَدِيثْ اَلْقُدْسِي]

Qala Rasulallahi ﷺ, Qala Allah (AJ): “Qalb al mu’min baytur rabb.” [Hadith al Qudsi]

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, that Allah (AJ) said: “The heart of the believer is the House of the Lord.” (Holy Hadith)

Take Control of Your Life, Your Faith and Your Heart to Let Truth Into Your Head!

If you illuminate the light and illuminate the love of the heart, what happens? It will cast into the head because why? The head is the abode of illusions and delusions of casting. But who has the control? If you take control of your heart and your life and your faith, then you’re the master of the casting. You cast into the head the reality that you’ve made within your heart.

It means the heart is the king. The one whom governs his heart and controls his heart, he will cast into the head the truth. That’s the rahmah (mercy). This love of Prophet ﷺ, love of the Divine, what happens? Cast into the head, ‘This is going to be beautiful. Enter into it.’ Allah (AJ) makes every difficulty to be of ease.

Shaitan Casts Fear Into Our Heads So We Don’t Fast in Ramadan

You enter and immense grace, immense mercy dresses you. The one whom can’t gain control of their head because they’re headstrong, their nafs, their ego and shaitan is occupying them. What does shaitan keep casting into the head? Fear. ‘You can’t go that long without food. You’re going to die’. What the poor people who are not eating for days and you can’t eat for a few hours and you’re going to die?

It’s because the head is strong. You can’t do activities because you’re going to be thirsty? Because the head is strong. People whom don’t and don’t have, they go for days, God forbid, without food or water in difficulty. So, this is not something real. It’s only an illusion and delusion by shaitan.

Regain Control of Your Heart Through Heavenly Practices

So, Ramadan is the big one because it’s an immense gate of paradise and now even western doctors are agreeing and say, ‘No, this is absolutely no fire. This is a complete blessing’. Medically, your body will be reset; cellular, your body will be reset. Sicknesses will be taken just by the power of siyam and fasting. They try to scientifically prove it, but they can’t even register the level of barakah (blessing) and Divine grace. Even scientifically, it makes sense to them. They have no idea of Divine grace and majesty of what Allah (AJ) will dress the servants from this immense reality.

We pray that Allah (AJ) give us greater understandings of the system of dajjal (man of deceit), the system of shaitan in which he casts within the head, delusions. Our life is about conquering those and regaining control of our heart with our zikr, with our meditation, with our practices so that you’re in control of the heart and that you sit upon the seat of authority. Surat Al-Takwir will begin to describe that in which Allah (AJ), you enter into Ramadan, it becomes your judgment day. Right? Because He said He’s going to destroy the nafs with Al-Muntaqim (The Avenger).

Sayyidina Zu Fadl ﷺ is the Key to the Mercy of Al-Muntaqim

As soon as you enter into Ramadan, the attribute of Al–Muntaqim in which Allah (AJ) begin to avenge. Who He’s avenging is your paradise soul that came into this body and shaitan (satan) has defecated and destroyed it and it’s God’s mercy that, ‘I am going to destroy that nafs and destroy shaitan to avenge My servants.’

The key of that reality of Al-Muntaqim is by Sayyidina Zu Fadl ﷺ, the one whom brings Allah’s (AJ) grace. Bi fadhlil ‘azim means the one who brings the immense grace of Allah (AJ) like a key. He opens this key and Allah’s (AJ) Al-Muntaqim begins to dress upon the servant which is the reality of the right hand and 81 or is left-hand 81 depending upon how you read is right hand is 8 and 1. Al-Muntaqim, the one whom avenges the servant to return them to their pure and purified state of realities.

Reset Yourself This Ramadan By Entering Allah’s (AJ) Rahmah Through the Gate of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ

The way Allah (AJ) created that soul and its beauty and its beatific light, like a crystal of pearl. That shaitan has destroyed and corrupted everything about that insan (human being). As soon as they enter into that rahmah (mercy) with Prophet ﷺ opening that gate for the servant, Allah’s (AJ) blessings of Al-Muntaqim begin to avenge the servant and destroy the nafs (ego) and burn the shaitans. That’s the immensity of the power and the power of the reset for Ramadan.

We pray that Allah (AJ) dress us from the immensities of these lights, give us the strength in which to complete our worshipness in a way that Allah (AJ) is pleased with our ears, with our eyes, with our sense of touch, with our breath and the last with is the taste in which the reality of taste and the reality of fasting is to open the spiritual taste of all realities, to hear these realities but not taste them is then what we’re trying to achieve. That, ‘Ya Rabbi, we want to hear these realities of these teachers and these masters and I want to taste that reality’ and each to their level and to the grace of Allah (AJ) in which dresses their soul, inshaAllah.

Subhana rabbika rabbal ‘izzati ‘amma yasifoon, wa salaamun ‘alal mursaleen, walhamdulillahi rabbil ‘aalameen. Bi hurmati Muhammad al-Mustafa wa bi siri Surat al-Fatiha.
