Importance of Associations of Divine Praise in The Last Days

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’re 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)

The Immensity of the Associations of Zikr (Divine Remembrance) and Praises

Always a reminder for myself ana abdukal ‘ajeezu, wa dayeefu, wa miskinu, wa zhalim, wa jahl, and but for the grace of Allah’s (AJ) rahmah (mercy) that we’re still in existence. From these majlis (association) of heavenly associations always a reminder that the most powerful associations and most needed associations in the last days are these salli ‘alan Nabi ﷺ. The associations in which they gather to listen and to join within the praises of the heavens, praising Allah (AJ) and Allah’s (AJ) most beloved Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and zikrullah (remembrance of Allah). That people whom listen to in their homes, attend the majlis of zikr, participate have an immense reality being dressed upon them.

Understanding the Frequency and Energy – Low and High

The reason they teach by understandings of energy because it destroys the barriers of ignorance and dogma. That in these days where people are at a level of their vibration, their energy, their understanding been brought down with what they hear, with what they see, with what they feel with everything of dunya (material world) is designed to bring their vibration, their frequency, their inner zikr. The light of their soul is determined by the quality of their internal zikr and shaitan wants to bring the frequency of insan (mankind) down.

When their frequency is up, the shaitans burn. The angelic frequencies, the heavenly frequencies put a light upon the soul. This is the study of quantum, this is the study of light that for that light to exist it’s an energy. That energy to exist has a praise, a string theory, a vibration. So shaitan knows the system, knows that the soul that emanates with too much light burns their being. Because Allah (AJ) says, ‘When the truth comes, the falsehood perishes and falsehood by its nature zahooqa (perished). That tell your people, “Qul jaa alhaqq.”

(٨١) وَ قُلْ جَآءَالْحَقُّ وَزَهَقَ الْبَطِلُ، إِنَّ الْبَطِلَ كَانَ زَهُوقًا

17:81 – “Wa qul jaa alhaqqu wa zahaqal baatil, innal batila kana zahoqa.” (Surat Al-Isra)

“And say, Truth has come, and falsehood has perished. Indeed falsehood, [by its nature], is ever perishing/bound to perish.” (The Night Journey, 17:81)

That when the truth comes, the truth means heavenly vibrations whether within the angels, the prophets (as) and within the heavenly kingdom. When the vibration is high, the lights are glowing and heated, Allah (AJ) says, ‘Those vibrations and the lower vibrations they don’t come together and sit.’ They don’t coexist. The nature of energy and the high vibration shatters everything negative because negative has no foundation to hold itself. “Zahooqan” – Allah (AJ) is then giving to us in this understanding that it will shatter. You merely build your light and anywhere you go, that light begins to shatter everything false. If you’re borderline then you have very little effect on the negative energy. It basically can tolerate you. If you elevate your light through whatever Allah (AJ) has sent for us of instruction. It means wash to protect your soul, pray to empower your soul and to deposit all the negativities, grounding and putting your head in sujood (prostration) it grounds all of the badness and energizes and charges. Fast, so that you can build your energy and conquer the shaitan moving within your blood and within your body.

Associations of Zikr Aim to Uplift People’s Energy in Last Days

It means that everything that Allah (AJ) brought for us and Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ brought for us, now they can understand it based on energy. We’re at a place in which the understanding of humanity they can understand the what’s in Math the common denominator. That instead of fighting about the interpretation of words and the dogma, the common denominator to solve this problem is ‘energy.’ Whatever religion you think you are, the common denominator to solve our difference is energy. What do you think you’re doing to build your energy or whatever you’re doing is it destroying your energy? 

So in last days to raise the vibration of people these majlises that are conducted out of love and extraordinary worship. They did what was required and what was mandatory, they did their salah (daily prayer), they did what Allah (AJ) asked for them. These are then the associations of the expression of love in which Allah (AJ) grants them by no intention because we described love can’t be judged by intention. Love is based on the ‘ishq and when you come for the intention of love, these are then circles and portals of paradise.

Why the Hadith al Qudsi (Holy Hadith) describes that, ‘The circles of paradise if you see them sit and stay with them eat and drink from them.’ Then the whole description of that portal that the angels are praising all the way to ‘Arsh ar Rahman (Throne of The Most Compassionate). That anyone sitting in those portals, in those lights and in their homes, where those portals are opening, the zikrs are opening they’re being dressed by the blessings all the way from the throne of Ar Rahmah to wherever they are. That Allah (AJ) is taking all of the difficulties and the badness or bad energies and bad character all the way is being lifted up off of them. The angels asked, ‘But there’s one who is not from among them?’ That’s why the lesson is in love. That Allah (AJ) is explaining to the angels, ‘No, there’s so much blessings in this association. It doesn’t matter who is sitting with them, what their intention is, I’m dressing them, blessing them and lifting from them their difficulties.’ Because love doesn’t need an intention. They’re coming for love and Allah (AJ) grants even the smallest mustard seed of love to be dressed by these blessings.

عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: “إِذَا مَرَرْتُمْ بِرِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ فَارْتَعُوا.” قَالُوا وَمَا رِيَاضُ الْجَنَّةِ؟ قَالَ: “حِلَقُ الذِّكْرِ. ” [جَامِعْ اَلتِّرْمِذِيُّ – جُزْء٦، كتاب ٤٥، حديث٣٥١٠]

‘An Anasi ibni Malikin (ra) anna Rasulallahi ﷺ qala: “Izaa marartum beriyadil jannati, farta’u.” Qalu: wa ma riyadul jannati? Qala ﷺ: “Hilaquz Zikri [Jami’ at Tirmidhi, Juz’ 6, Kitab 45, Hadith 3510]

Anas ibn Malik (ra) reported: The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, “When you pass by the gardens of Paradise, then feast/indulge (in their blessings).” They said, “What are the gardens of Paradise?” The Prophet (pbuh) said, “The circles of Divine remembrance.” [From Traditions of al Tirmidhi Volume 6, Book 45, Hadith 3510]

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:” إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَلَاَئِكَةَ سَيَّارَةٍ وَفُضَلَاءٍ، يَلْتَمِسُونَ مُجَالِسَ الذِّكْرِ فِي الْأرْضِ. فَإِذَا أَتَوْا عَلَى مَجْلِسِ ذِكْرِ حَفِّ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا بِأجْنِحَتِهِمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، حَتَّى يَمْلَئُوْا مَا بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا.

فَيَقُولُ اللهُ: مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتُم ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: جِئْنَا مِنْ عِنْدَ عِبَادِكَ يُسَبِحُوْنَكَ وَيُكْبِرُوْنَكَ وَيُحْمِدُوْنَكَ وَيُهَلِّلُوْنَكَ وَيَسْأَلُوْنَكَ وَيَسْتَجِيرُوْنَكَ. ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: اِشْهَدُوْا أَنِّيَّ قَدْ غَفَرَتْ لَهُمْ، وَأَعْطَيْتُهُمْ مَا سَأَلُوْنِي، وَأَجْرَتْهُمْ مِمَّا اِسْتَجَارُوْنِي. فَيَقُولُونَ: رَبَّنَا، إِنَّ فَيَهُمُّ عَبْدَاً خَطَاءٍ جَلَسَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَيْسَ مِنْهُمْ. فَيَقُولُ: وَهُوَ )أَيْضًا قَدْ غَفَرَتْ لَهُ، هُمُ الْقَوْمُ لَا يَشْقَىٰ بِهُمْ جَلِيسُهُمْ. (أَخْرَجَهُ اَلبُخَارِيِ وَمُسْلِم

‘An Abi Huraira (as) qala: Qala Rasulullahi ﷺ: “Inna Lillahi malayikatan sayyaratin wa fudulayin, yaltamisona majalisaz Zikre fil ardi. Fa iza ataw ‘ala majlisi zikri, haffi ba’duhum ba’dan bi ajnihatihim ilas samayi, hatta yamlao ma baynahum wa baynas samayid dunya. Fayaqolollahu: Min ayna jeytum? Fayaqolona: Jeyna min ‘inda ‘ibadeka yusbihonaka, wa yukaberonaka, wa yahmidonaka, wa yuhalllonaka, wa yasalonaka, wa yastajironaka… Thuma yaqolo: ishhado anniya qad ghafarat lahum, wa a’taytuhum ma sa-aloni, wa ajrathum memma estajaroni. Fayaqolona: Rabbana, inna fihummu ‘abdan khatayin jalasa ilayhim wa laysa minhum. Fayaolo: wa huwa aydan qad ghafarat lahu, humul qawmu la yashqa behum jalisuhum.

Abi Hurairah (ra) narrates from the messenger of Allah (pbuh) that “There are Allah’s angels roaming the streets, looking for the People of zikr. When they find the gathering of zikr, they call out to each other and form a circle around this gathering that reaches to Sky. (When this gathering disperses, they return to the sky where they are questioned by Allah (AJ) although He is All-knowing: And Allah (AJ) says:” Where have you come from? The Angels reply:” We come from a gathering of Your servants who were praising you, glorifying you, thanking of you, and asking from you and seeking refuge in you.” Then Allah (AJ) (AJ) says: “I am making you witness that I have forgiven them, and I gave them what they have asked me, and I have granted them refuge from what they sought refuge from.” One of the angels says: “O my Lord, someone was there who did not belong to that group but came (coincidentally) for some other needs/work.” Allah (AJ) says: “Those are such a group of people that anyone who sits with them, regardless of their reason/intention, their sins will be forgiven, and they won’t be deprived (from the blessings). [Al Bukhari & Muslim]

Shaykh’s Presence Raises the Frequency of Entire Association

So that’s why in the last days these are the most powerful associations. These are the associations in which if there is somebody whom their frequency is very high, what we would call ‘Shaykhs’ and ‘Guides.’ They do not self-proclaimed that they call themself that but in which their life was a training. They were trained, they were sent into seclusions, they were trained on building their energy, they were trained on lowering and destroying the lower vibrations. As a result, they come out certified that they’ve been trained. As a result, they’ve been certified for guidance and with that one attending then is raising the vibration of the entire majlis.

So the recitation comes and brings out an energy but because the presence of the guide and when the guide is present in the association, it’s his soul that comes out. Whether you’re physical or at a distance; it doesn’t make a difference. Because the power of the soul is faster than the speed of thought. That as soon as you attend their association, you make intention into that association, you begin to play those salawats (praises upon Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) and nasheeds (songs of praise) with the presence of that shaykh is present in that association, immediately the soul of the shaykh is present in all of those associations wherever they’re partaking. That the shaykh operates from his wave reality. As a result, Allah (AJ) describes them one of the understandings from Surat Al YaSeen, “Fulkil mashhoon.”

(٤١) وَآيَةٌ لَّهُمْ أَنَّا حَمَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ فِي الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ

36:41 – “Wa ayatul lahum anna hamalna dhurriyyatahum fil fulkil mashhooni.” (Surat YaSeen)

“And a sign for them is that we have carried their atoms/forefathers in the loaded ship.” (YaSeen, 36:41)

That these are loaded ships because the soul in this understanding is a ship. Allah (AJ) describes that, ‘They are loaded ships,’ means loaded with energies and voltage and immense lights. As a result, these lights come and they grab the lights of everyone in the associations. As a result of the praisings and the energy and the vibrations and the frequencies, they’re being raised, the lights are being raised.

So means that this gift and this reality of guidance is not something that people can achieve. That if they think their salah is going to do the same, no because “Kullu ‘aamaalu bin niyaat.”

عَنْ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِنَّمَا الْأَعْمَال بِالنِّيَّاتِ.” [صَحِيِحْ مُسْلِم: رقم ١٩٠٧، كتاب ٣٣، حَديث ٢٢.]

‘An Amirul Mumineen ‘Umar ibn al Khattab (as) qala: qala Rasulullahi ﷺ: “Innama al ‘aamaalu bin niyaat.” [Sahih Muslim, Raqam 1907, Kitab 33, Hadith 22]

The leader of the believers ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (as) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: “Verily all deeds/actions are based on their intentions.” [Source: Authentic by Muslim: Number 1907, Book 33, Hadith 22]

Salah has to be judged. So if some people say, ‘Oh Shaykh it’s only I do my salah is enough for me.’ No, salah was mandatory, was ordered by Allah (AJ), you have to do. But the gift is not in the mandatory. The gift of love and the proof of love is in the extraordinary, right. Somebody gives you mandatory thing, you do mandatory without the expectation that, ‘My reward lies within the mandatory.’ But the expression of love is what’s empowering. So when you do the mandatory, everything has to be judged. ‘Well, let’s see what your intention was.’ Then you have to go through the process of judgment.

So awliyaullah come into our lives and say, ‘Do everything that’s mandatory 100 percent but don’t bank on that.’ Don’t put your whole life on what was mandatory. That, ‘Ya Rabbi,’ negate that before Allah (AJ) negates it. Say, ‘I don’t know how You’re going to judge but I can probably tell you it’s not going to be good and I’m not counting on all those mandatory. But Ya Rabbi I’m asking that You judge me based on that love. That on the actions I did of ‘ishq and muhabbat and the love for Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. That grant me the rewards of those associations, of those actions.’ They went out and gave water, they gave food, they sat for majlis of zikr and salawat an Nabi ﷺ – those are the actions that have tremendous reward with Divinely Presence.

The Power of Zikrullah: Recharging Souls in a Draining World

That’s why the importance in the last days so much of the zikrullah, the salli ‘alan Nabi ﷺ, these association. Because it can lift the energy and the vibration of people. If they do this on a weekly basis means that throughout the week their entire lives and our entire lives are being bombarded. You wake up Monday, what happens? Everything you heard, you hear, every experience you have at work, every interaction you have with humanity now is rigged to bring your vibration down. Many can barely survive the day. By the time they go home, their eyes are red, they’re tired and fatigued. Whatever energy they thought they had by the end of the day it has been depleted. But then the majlis and the associations again whether live or online, these are heavenly batteries, heavenly charging stations.

If the car needs to be charged; you saw the car when it runs out of its charge? You can’t even push it, it just locks in the middle of the street. It’s a symbol for people. That if you run your charge out and you run the battery out, shaitan will attack you, will completely overtake you. Before you know it you’re making all the wrong choices, eating all the wrong foods, thinking all the wrong thoughts and that’s shaitan. That’s the negative energy that overtakes people, makes them to harm themselves. Look now they legalized all the forbiddens on Earth so that what? To destroy all the children who will now stop anywhere along the road and pick up things that they think are legal. Those are legal ways of killing themselves.

Shaykh is a Spiritual Ship Guiding Souls to Divine Presence

So means this dunya is geared now for the destruction of insan and it’s our responsibility to save insan. The majlis is a beautiful expression of that reality in which it’s enjoyable, peaceful, they feel the tranquility, they feel the love. As a result immense realities are partaking. It’s not entertainment. As soon as they sit wherever they’re sitting, their lights are being lifted. These are ships that are from paradise. Within a instant the souls of these shaykhs are out and lifting everyone to their association. That their souls are always in the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and that was the concept of the fulk (ship) and Allah (AJ) describes that, ‘We have the fulkil mashhoon and we created those that are like them.’

(٤٢) وَآيَةٌ لَّهُمْ أَنَّا حَمَلْنَا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ فِي الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ ﴿٤١﴾ وَخَلَقْنَا لَهُم مِّن مِّثْلِهِ مَا يَرْكَبُونَ

36:41-42 – “Wa ayatul lahum anna hamalna dhurriyyatahum fil fulkil mashhooni. (41) Wa khalaqna lahum mim mithlihi ma yarkabon. (42)” (Surat YaSeen)

“And a sign for them is that we have carried their atoms/forefathers in the loaded ship. (41) And We have created for them similar (vessels) on which they ride. (42)” (YaSeen, 36:41-42)

It means they are big super ships that load all of these realities and all these passengers upon them. And there are then the smaller ships that go out and they ferry back and forth and they bring people back into the super ships. Those ships in an instant are moving into Divinely Presence and this is a reality of light. This is the reality of the Hadith that we talked about of love, ‘You’ll 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]

Shaykhs are in Continuous Mi’raj (Ascension) into the Presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ

One is a bond within your heart and now for malakut (heavenly realm) when Prophet ﷺ describes, ‘You’ll be with whom you love,’ the higher is the soul. That if your soul establishes a love what we called reverence and respect so that to keep always the respect of this love. It is a reverence and a respect for these shaykhs and for the representatives of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. What happens? Your soul bonds with them, not your brain. They don’t want anything to do with your brain. They don’t need to convince you from your brain that you agree, you don’t agree. All they ask you, ‘Just open your heart,’ enjoy the association. Your soul knows what to do, not your nafs (ego). The soul immediately remembers paradise in their associations. When it hears these nasheeds and sees these figures, the soul knows, the soul is not ignorant. [Soul] knows that these are from paradise, this is from our homeland. Like a camel that was in a desert that, ‘I didn’t, we haven’t seen any of this in a long time.’ That’s why when children look at the shaykhs, they’re smiling because they just came from paradise. They were just with them.

So means that it has an immense reality and as soon as your heart opens, it bonds and locks with them. Since they are in a continuous Mi’raj into the presence of whom they love. Into the presence of their shaykhs and their shaykhs and their shaykhs and their shaykhs are always in the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and the ruhaniyat an Nabi ﷺ (spirituality of Prophet ﷺ). And this is the majlis of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. So all those ships they brought with them who they love. They carry you in their heart.

Choose the Righteous Companionship

That’s when Allah (AJ) describes, ‘You share in the good.’ So means that somebody whom loves you if they’re good and their actions are good and that you see their actions and their teaching, both action and teachings are good. You want to be in their heart and in their association. The same is that you don’t want to be in the heart of those whom do bad in which the bad love you and they carry you with their heart. Because why would they want to carry a pious person? They don’t. They carry those who are of a similar badness and they carry each other into difficulty and torment and this is an immense reality of the soul.

That Allah (AJ) gave an immensely easy way to reach realities. It is that open your heart for the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and those whom love that reality and they teach through good character, through good manners and a faith that has to be in action. That they have to walk the walk and talk the talk. They have to have good deeds. They cannot sit and just claim to be good but we have to make our faith to be real.

As a result, the heart opens and the souls keep the companionship in that association and wherever that light is going, those souls are being carried in that Mi’raj, into that presence. As a result of that, whatever that shaykh is being dressed by of realities, that dress is trickling down to all those in that fulk. That’s why “mushhoon” that they’re loaded because whatever energies are coming upon them, it’s but just an atom of you that’s necessary. They take one atom of your reality and it grafts onto their reality. Whatever Allah (AJ) dress upon their soul, it grafts and dresses that one atom and they know in their quantum theory that that one atom communicates with all your atoms.

That your one atom communicates with the entire source, with all its information is being sent. Doesn’t need the whole of you, right. They split the atom and they understood through how they have their testing devices that it split into three. They said these three are communicating simultaneously. So it has its communication, because it has its own haqqaiqs (realities). If course, it has to be. That you can never break them. So it means it’s enough just one atom to attached to someone who is ‘ashiqeen (lovers) and muhibbin (lovers of the way). Then whatever they’re being dressed by, they’re dressing all those atoms. That atom then comes back and dresses the entirety of the person.

Drawing Near to the Muhammadan Light Draws You Near to Allah (AJ)

That’s why for barakah (blessings) they go to many maqams (tombs of holy Muslim), many shrines of holy people, righteous pious people in the way of the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Why? Because the Muhammadiyoon light is there. What made them to be ‘ashiqeen is that their self died and what existed was the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Then what does that mean? That the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ means what? You’re now in the presence of a light in which he died and his presence is what? Allah (AJ). Right, because this is the servant whom Allah (AJ) called ‘AbdAllah, AbdAllah.’

This is the whole concept you draw near to the Shaykh because of his Muhammadan light and who he loves because you’ll be with whom you love. If you love Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ then you’ll be with them. When you draw near to the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, he’s the master of this fana (annihilation). That he gave himself away a long time ago in which he doesn’t exist and all that exists within him is the ‘ishq of Allah (AJ) in its purity. In its purified state that whatever insan can achieve of that love then that Muhammadan reality represents that. So actually when you’re drawing near to Prophet ﷺ, you are drawing near to Allah (AJ). “Qul in kuntum tuhibbon Allaha fattabi’uni, yuhbibkumullah.”

(٣١) …قُلْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تُحِبُّوْنَ اللَّـهَ فَاتَّبِعُوْنِيْ يُحْبِبْكُمُ اللَّـهُ 

3:31 – “Qul in kuntum tuhibbon Allaha fattabi’uni, yuhbibkumullahu…” (Surat Ali-Imran)

“Say, [O Muhammad], “If you should love Allah, then follow me, [so] Allah will love you …” (Family of Imran, 3:31)

Allah (AJ) is giving us that, ‘You can’t really come to Me like that. You haven’t been cleaned, you don’t even know where you’re directing yourself. Come to the one whom knows where I am, knows My love, knows what I want. He came to “Qaaba qawsayni aw adna.” He is a guided Prophet ﷺ in which he saw his reality and he understood he is at “Qaaba qawsayni aw adna” –  at two both lengths are nearer.

(٩) فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَىٰ 

 53:9 – “Fakana qaaba qawsayni aw adna.” (Surat An-Najm)

“And was at a distance of two bow lengths or nearer [to the Divine Presence].” (The Star, 53:9)

‘Move into his presence then I will love you.’ So people keep making as if this is separate. That, ‘Why are you drawing near to Prophet ﷺ? Why you don’t draw near to Allah (AJ)?’ Because they didn’t understand the system. They think we’re going somewhere else. Because they think Allah (AJ) is somewhere that they’re going to find and Allah (AJ) said, ‘No, I’m not on Earth, I’m not on heaven, I’m in the heart of My believer.’

عَنْ وَهَبِ بِنْ مُنَبِّهْ، قَال رَسُولَ اللَّه ﷺ، قَالْ اللَّه عَزَ وَجَلْ: ” مَا وَسِعَنِيْ لَا سَمَائِيْ وَلَا اَرْضِيْ وَلَكِنْ وَسِعَنِيْ قَلْبِ عَبْدِيْ اَلْمُؤْمِنْ [حَدِيثْ اَلْقُدْسِي – اَلْغَزَالِي فِي اَلْإحْيَاء، وَ اِبنِ عَرَبِي فِي اَلْتَرَاجِمْ، صفحه ٢٢٤]

‘An Wahab ibn Munabbeh, Qala Rasulallahi ﷺ, Qala Allah (AJ): “Maa wasi’anee laa samayee, wa la ardee, laakin wasi’anee qalbi ‘Abdi al Mu’min.” [Hadith al Qudsi, Al Ghazali fi al Ihyaa, wa Ibn ‘Arabi fi al Tarajim, Safha 224]

Narrated by Wahab the son of Munabbeh that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, that Allah (AJ) said: “Neither My Heavens nor My Earth can contain Me, but the heart of My Believing Servant.” [Holy Hadith, by Imam al-Ghazali in Al Ihya, and by Ibn ‘Arabi in al Tarajib, Page 224]

Allah (AJ) is in the Heart of His Believer – Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ

You look and went to the wrong place. You went to some place looking for Allah (AJ). Where is that place? It’s beyond our even comprehension. That we’re from creation so the most that we can go is within creation. You can’t leave creation to get to Allah (AJ). So Allah (AJ) directed you to the nucleus and said, ‘I’m not in heaven.’ What heaven you’re thinking about? There’s a heaven outside of creation or heaven is also creation? It’s been created. Allah (AJ) is not sitting there because then Allah (AJ) is confined within creation. That can’t be logical. That what He created, He went into and that can contain Allah (AJ)? No, heavens is for us. Allah (AJ) is the owner and the power for everything. But Allah (AJ) gave to us, ‘Not in heaven not on Earth but I’m in the heart of my believer.’ If you understood then the believer is called Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and “Qalb al mu’min baytullah.” That his heart is the house of Allah (AJ).

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)

Then you understood by drawing near to Prophet ﷺ with ‘ishq and love, you have drawn near now to Allah’s (AJ) favors and Allah’s (AJ) proximity and Allah’s (AJ) dress and ni’mat (blessing) and Divine gifts and realities. That’s why we don’t argue with these people. People who want to come back and make it like it’s something else. That, ‘You’re going towards Prophet ﷺ and that we’re going towards Allah (AJ).’ Say, ‘No it’s because of your ignorance and childish behavior. I don’t understand what you think Allah (AJ), where in Allah (AJ) is.’ That you can leave the abode of creation – it is impossible. So Allah (AJ) gave us the adab (manners) that, ‘If you want Me, follow Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.’ If you follow with this love, with this good character Allah (AJ) say, ‘I’m going to love you and then Ghafoor ur Raheem (The All Forgiving, The Most Merciful) and I’m going to forgive you.’ It means then we’re drawing near to that presence of Divinely love.

That’s what all these awliyaullah are seeking of that Divinely love and that Divinely service. Allah (AJ) granted for them, ‘Bring people back up into these paradise and heavenly realities with these majlis, these majis of salli alan Nabi ﷺ, the majlises of zikrullah.’ That bring people to a state of love. Through their teachings they must open the hearts of people not to aggravate and agitate the hearts of people. Not to be combative and confrontive with people, not to call people kufaar, not to be name tagging and making conspiracies. But to get the hearts of people to be opened. As a result of their heart opening, they’re finding their peace then the soul is free. The soul makes the bond, the soul makes the connection and the rest is the ride into paradise.

Awliyaullah Bless the Soul Beyond Space and Time

A dress, a light, a blessings and what type of blessings, what type of lights in this world of light are being conveyed because only now they can understand light. That when your soul is is going on that ship and you’re sitting in a majlis that one hour of tafakkur (contemplation) is like 70 years of worshipness, right?

تَفَكُرْ سَاعَةٍ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عِبَادَةِ سَبْعِينْ سَنَةً

“Tafakkur sa’atin khairun min ‘Ibadati sab’een sanatan.”

“One hour of contemplation is more valuable than seventy years of worship” Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

So What Einstein understood? That if you went and traveled at the speed of light and came back, it probably would be 70 years has passed upon this Earth in time. The speed of time. If you traveled at the speed of time and went on a ship, came back, 70 years passed on this Earth but we’re talking about a speed faster than the speed of time – the speed of thought. With what kind of speed is that? It means that when that ship moves into the presence of the Divinely presence, into the presence of Allah’s (AJ) power, in the presence of the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, what transpired in those one hour, half hour, two hour, three hour zikrs? What type of lights, what type of realities, what type of blessings were dressed upon those lights? Within that three hours these people came back. What was gifted upon their souls, what realms did they enter, how long have they been in that realm?

Because anything that enters, the rules of paradise, anything that enters paradise can never leave paradise. So means that five minutes in their association, this is Shaykh Daghestani (Q) Sultanul Awliya (King of Saints) described that if you sit just and from their majlises they would give out these haqqaiqs. ‘Just five minutes in my association, I’ll dress you from my station.’ How? Because it only takes him five minutes to be in the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ with the entire majlis. So of course they’re all going to be dressed because they’re not coming through that door. They’re coming through the door of Sultanul Awliya. So wherever he’s sitting in the presence of Prophet ﷺ and his ruhaniyat, he got the trust that all of them will be dressed by that reality, blessed by that reality.

The World of Light is the Source of Power and Controls the World of Form

So it means this world of light, this world of malakut and that the world of light it is the power for the world of form. The one whom has power in the world of light is “Kulli shay” – that his power all encompassing over the world of form. But the one whom seeks only the power of the world, the form is empty and has nothing. Because form by itself is going. They spend their lives on mastering the form, the wealth of the form but the one who achieved wealth within his soul and power within his soul has dominion over everything of Allah (AJ). It was Surah YaSeen, “Subhanal ladhee biyadih Malakotu kulli shay.” “Malakut kulli shay, kulli shay, kulli shay” from malakut.

(٨٣) فَسُبْحَانَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ 

36:83 – “Fasubhanal ladhee biyadihi Malakotu kulli shay in wa ilayhi turja’oon.” (Surat YaSeen)

“Therefore Glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion/ kingdom over everything in heavens, and to Him you will be returned.” (YaSeen, 36:83)

That the glory be to the hand that reached that reality. That Allah (AJ) giving His “subhan” upon that. That glory be to the hand that reached to this malakut. Why? Because he is “kulli shay.” It is not a description for Allah (AJ). Allah (AJ) doesn’t describe His malakut, He owns all of these things but glory be because Surah YaSeen is the heart of Prophet ﷺ, is the heart of Qur’an and is the heart in which the awliya are all moving into that reality. So then the people of this malakut if they’re reaching into these oceans of power, Allah (AJ) is describing – “kulli shay” that their power encompasses everything. We pray that Allah (AJ) dress us from the world of light, dress us from these big ‘ashiqeen, the holy companions, the Ahlul Bayt (holy family of Prophet ﷺ), the lovers of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, awliyaullah fis samayi wa wil ard (in the heavens and on earth), inshaAllah.

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