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

A’uzu Billahi Minash Shaitanir Rajeem
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the rejected one
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, 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)

Rabi’ul Thani – Journey of Soul From TaSeen to YaSeen

Always a reminder for myself ana abdukal ‘ajeez, wa dayeef, wa miskin, wa zhalim, and that Allah (AJ)’s immense rahmah (mercy) and grace that keeps us in existence. Alhamdulillah in this holy month Rabi’ul Thani – the fourth lunar month with the power of awliyaullah (saints), the power of their knowledges and realities that they bring for us the understanding of the importance of 9 and the sultanate (kingdom) of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. That 9 times 4 is 36 (9×4=36) and that opens for us the surah Surat Al YaSeen ﷺ – surah of the heart of holy Qur’an on this journey from TaSeen last month to Sayyidina YaSeen ﷺ. The immensity of the heart of holy Qur’an, Manzil ul Qur’an (where the Holy Qur’an emanates) – the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. That when Allah (AJ) is going to swear by the immensity of this reality by, “Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. YaSeen wal Qur’anal Hakeem. Innaka lamina al mursaleen. Ala Siratal Mustaqim.”

﴾٤﴿ ‎يس ﴿١﴾ وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكِيمِ ﴿٢﴾ إِنَّكَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ ﴿٣﴾‏ عَلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ‎

36:1-4 – “Ya-Seen. (1) Wal Qur’anal Hakeem. (2) Innaka lamina al mursaleen. (3) Ala Siratal Mustaqim. (4)” (Surat YaSeen)

“Ya-Seen. By the Qur’an, full of Wisdom. Indeed you, [O Muhammad], are from among the messengers, On a straight path.” (YaSeen, 36:1-4)

Why to Recite Surah YaSeen on Someone Passing from This World?

So Allah (AJ) is granting these ‘uloom and the knowledges. Imagine the immensity of this reality that Allah (AJ) ordered Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, ‘Tell your nation to recite this surah over all those whom are passing from this world.’ Allah (AJ) giving them a last chance to be dressed by the immensity of the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. You have the YaSeen book Junaid up there? [Shaykh asks audience]. That all of that and all this reality it brought out. This is the YaSeen book. What is this called? YaSeen. So all these realities of Surat Al YaSeen and all of this is the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ that granted to tariqah (spiritual path), granted to this reality in the last days.

As You Recite YaSeen Allah’s (AJ) Gift Enters in Your Heart

That these knowledges they’re not found anywhere. They’re not found in books. They are not found to be brought out, and they give permission to bring these realities out. Because of the last days and the immensity of difficulty and darkness that comes upon the earth. With these ‘uloom and these knowledges that the soul reached to a yaqeen and certainty. That, Allah (AJ) when giving for us that when they recite ‘Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. YaSeen,’ immediately something is coming into the soul of that person. They know it, they don’t know it; it doesn’t matter. Because Allah (AJ) is the one gifting these realities. If they know the ‘uloom (knowledges) then alhamdulillah. That’s why you get the book [YASEEN], read it, understand. So that you participate in these realities, meditate upon these realities. So that these knowledges can blossom exponentially within the heart and the soul of the individual.

What is Allah’s (AJ) Greatest Gift?

All these knowledges and Allah (AJ) swears by holy Qur’an which means the power of the entire created universe. “Wal Qu’ranal Hakeem” – and that every wisdom and knowledge, and whom Allah (AJ) bestows wisdom and knowledge has been granted Allah’s (AJ) greatest gift. Not money but wisdom and knowledge Allah (AJ) grants – it’s a grant from the highest of reality of Allah (AJ) to grant His servants. So then this ‘YaSeen’ that Allah (AJ) is swearing by of this reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and then swears by holy Qur’an and all the wisdom that going to be brought to you.

Allah (AJ) Has Given Everything Under the Authority of Prophet ﷺ

Then awliyaullah come into our lives and begin to teach that – kalaam al mursaleen that every knowledge is from words. Anything written on a book that going to manifest, not manifest is with these letters. These letters you put into words. These words you put into sentences. All of these knowledges that come are based on these letters. So then who owns these letters? These are all gifted. Allah (AJ) gifted all of what? ‘The heavens and the earth and everything between them, “Sakhkhara lakum maa fis samaawaati wa maa fil ard wa jamee’an” to you. We have subjected all of heavens and earth and anything you can find.’

(١٣) وَسَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعاً مِّنْهُ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لَّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

45:13 – “Wa sakhkhara lakum maa fis samaawaati wa maa fil ardi jamee’am minhu; inna fee zaalika la Aayaatil liqawminy yatafakkaroon.” (Surat Al Jathiya)

“And He has subjected to you (Sayyidina Mahmood ﷺ, all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth [Muhammadan Kingdom], it is all from Him; Behold, in that are Signs indeed for those who reflect/Contemplate [Meditate].” (The Crouching, 45:13)

So they say like a capture all clause in your contract that – anything else you can think of Allah (AJ) says, ‘No it’s captured all, it’s all in the parenthesis. Sakhkhara lakum – we’ve given all of this to you Ya Sayyidi Ya Rasulul Kareem (The Most Generous Messenger). It’s all you.’ If they don’t understand that, they think their knowledge is separate. There is no knowledge separate.

Who is the Holy Tongue of Allah (AJ)?

All ‘uloom that going to manifest is manifesting through the tongue of Allah (AJ) which is Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Because Allah (AJ) won’t speak to you. Allah (AJ) speaks behind a veil so they don’t hear. But when Allah (AJ) want to speak to, He speaks through “RasulAllah (the Messenger of Allah (AJ)).” So means every ‘uloom and every knowledge is coming through the soul of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and Allah (AJ) resides within his heart and his power and his soul. The power of his soul is Allah (AJ)’s qudra (power) and Might. So when they want to understand all these words they don’t go and try to memorize everything. ‘What does this word mean? What does that word mean?’ No.

When Allah (AJ) Wants to Give Servants Knowledge, He (AJ) Dresses Them with ‘Ya’

That Allah (AJ) is showing the simple huroof (Arabic letters) that when Allah (AJ) wants to give a servant knowledges, He’s going to give them the ‘Ya.’ Just merely He dresses the servant with ‘Ya.’ This is from every word in this huroof, any kalaam (word) you come up with has a alif, ba, ta, tha [shaykh explains using a circular diagram with huroof in its circumference]. So this alif all these knowledges will be compacted to this ya, and this ya is comprised of ya and alif. That’s why it’s ya and alif. So its compacted. So every letter that Allah (AJ) want to teach you, He’s not going to teach you each word. ‘Oh this word, think about it, here’s the knowledges of it.’ No, Allah (AJ) says, ‘Dress the servant with ya.’ They’ll be given all these knowledges. The more they contemplate, the more they focus, the more that knowledge will begin to expand itself.

So all the letters are comprised from alif to ya so then the ya symbolizes knowledge. So ‘Ya’ of ‘YaSeen’ symbolizes knowledge. This side [shaykh holds the poster up for the audience to see] ya, ya. Then haji Lloyd can put it on the screen for the home audience. Right.

Whole of Qur’an is in ‘Ba’

So all Qur’an is in the ‘Ba.’ All Qur’an in 30 juz’ (part). 30 juz’ in Fatiha. All of Fatiha – ‘Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem.’ All of ‘Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem’ in ‘Ba.’ If Allah (AJ) want to give you the ‘uloom of Qur’an, He dress you with ba. Merely they say, ‘Ba’ and Allah (AJ) open their soul and every knowledge is put into them. They don’t know every knowledge but it resides within; “Allamal Qur’an. Khalaqal Insaan” – ‘I taught you all these. I put it all in your program.’

(٣) الرَّحْمَـٰنُ ﴿١﴾ عَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ ﴿٢﴾ خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ

55:1-3 – “Ar Rahmaan (1). ‘Allamal Qur’an (2). Khalaqal Insaan (3).” (Surat Ar-Rahman)

“The Most Merciful. (1) It is He Who has taught the Qur’an. (2) He has created Mankind. (3)” (The Beneficent, 55:1-3)

What was Our Biggest Responsibility When We Came to this Earth?

Your responsibility was to come to this earth, go into your program and retrieve what Allah (AJ) gave to you. Like space aliens were supposed to come here from where we came in paradise and we were supposed to retrieve our co-ordinance but we came here and said, ‘Wow, this is like really nice.’ We forgot what we came with. [Question] ‘What are you doing?’ [Reply] ‘We’re running around, we’re playing doing all sorts of things.’ Then they forgot they even were given a code.

When Allah (AJ), “Allamal Qur’an. Khalaqal Insaan” – ‘I taught all these realities onto you. They were all programmed in codes.’ Anyone who knows computer programming you know that they’re capsulated codes. Allah (AJ) doesn’t have to give you the whole text. He just give you a little code that when you hit that everything opens. Doesn’t have to give you all these sentences and download in 20 minutes and 5 hours of downloading. He merely give it all encapsulated within a ba and the angels sends the ba into the soul. As soon as they recite, ‘Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem,’ that’s why Mawlana Shaykh (Q) would say, ‘Recite Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem.’ They recite with tafakkur (contemplation) ‘Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem’, each time they recite that, that ba is expanding its ‘uloom and that knowledge for the servant. The more they contemplate, the more they make their madad (support), the more they train – these knowledges become stronger and stronger.

Reality of Awtads (Pegs)

Something that they’re watering that was once a little tree, little flower becomes like a huge tree of realities. That gives them their yaqeen (certainly) where their roots are deep into their reality and they’re firm and that’s why they’re like the awtad. Allah (AJ) describes some category of awliya (saints) like awtad – they are like the pegs that keeps this earth to be not moving. In the midst of difficulty their presence will stabilize the earth and these are from the awtad. So means how? Because the ‘uloom and the knowledges through their tafakkur and their contemplation Allah’s (AJ) dressing them with knowledges and powers. Because the knowledge has power. It’s not an empty knowledge. It’s a knowledge into the Divinely Presence and as a result of that knowledge dresses their soul, blesses their soul and grants them from Allah (AJ)’s qudra. “Qaf wal Qur’anil Majeed.”

﴾ق ۚ وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ ﴿١

50:1 – “Qaf, wal Quranil Majeed.” (Surat Qaf)

“Qaf. By the honored Qur’an.” (The Letter Qaf, 50:1)

When Allah (AJ) Wants to Give Servants Qudra, He (AJ) Dresses Them With ‘Qaf’

All of these are these codes. “Qaf wal Qur’anil Majeed.” When Allah (AJ) want to give the servant qudra, He gives them ‘Qaf’ and immediately the qaf comes into their soul. “Wal Qur’anil Majeed” [50:1], so from power of holy Qur’an their soul is emanating these knowledges, these realities, and these qudra. So definitely holy Qur’an is encoded otherwise every jahl (ignorant) pick up and read and get all these knowledges, no. These are categories. They are reading merely Furqan – they read a book of right and wrong.

Reality of Holy Qur’an Opens With Love of Prophet ﷺ

Its reality doesn’t open until the love and muhabbat of the Arabic messenger – Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Because you have to have the love of Prophet ﷺ. It’s illuminating knowledges from his Divinely soul. With that love and that ishq and the muhabbat, Prophet ﷺ is illuminating all those realities. Because the dress of Prophet ﷺ dresses that and begins to illuminate and blossom all those realities onto the servant.

So when Allah (AJ) giving the servant ya and every time they recite, ‘Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. Ya,’ Allah (AJ) sends these knowledges into their soul. Imagine then the one whom is parking this world. If they knew it then alhamdulillah. If they didn’t know these realities, this is the immense love and rahmah of Allah (AJ) for the nation of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ that they recite Surat Al YaSeen upon them. Because every, every verse of holy surah is immense in its realities because they’re all related to the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. So this is the headquarters – headquarters of holy Qur’an. The powerhouse of holy Qur’an is the heart of Prophet ﷺ. As we’re reciting and every time we recite from Surat Al YaSeen ﷺ, the immense power from that power station is dressing the servant.

They say – the secret of that secret is Surah Fatiha but that we go into later. Ya, so is all knowledges. As soon as we say, ‘Ya’ Allah (AJ) encapsulating all ‘uloom, every kalaam. So they don’t have to look for each word and try to understand the secret of this word, the secret of that word. That through their tafakkur and their contemplation Allah (AJ) has already deposited. Every time they recite the surah, ‘YaSeen’ and they do in their tafakkur, ‘YaSeen,’ Allah (AJ) expands their heart with these ‘uloom that contained within that ‘Ya.’ Then Allah (AJ) grant them from the realities of ‘Seen.’ So we said the seen is the sir and the secret.

There’s No Way to Allah (AJ) Except Through Muhammadun Rasulullah ﷺ

So Prophet ﷺ is the ya and is the seen. He ﷺ is the knowledge. Right. There’s no way to Allah (AJ) except through “Muhammadun Rasulullah ﷺ.” You can’t get to “La ilaha illAllah.” It’s reality, you can say it to come to oneness but you can’t reach the reality of that tawheed (Oneness) without coming through the door of “Muhammadun Rasulullah ﷺ.” Allah (AJ) says in Qur’an to all the prophets, ‘If he comes in your time, you take your allegiance to Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ,’ because they all have to go through Muhammadun Rasulullah ﷺ. So when did they take their allegiance? On Isra wal Mi’raj (Night journey and ascension) when Prophet ﷺ sent them as a mercy was sent to Jerusalem. Who were there? All the prophets and messengers of Allah (AJ). They did what? They took their salah, in the salah they take their shahahdah (testimony of faith). So everything is under “La ilaha illAllah Muhammadun Rasulullah ﷺ” and the deen (religion) of Allah (AJ) is Islam. It’s finished.

(١٩) إِنَّ الدِّينَ عِندَ اللَّـهِ الْإِسْلَامُ

3:19 – “Innad dina ‘indAllahil Islam…” (Surat Al-Imran)

“The religion with God is Islam [Submission]…” (Family of Imran, 3:19)

So means there’s no way to that knowledge without that door. So as a result he is the secret. So every time we say, ‘YaSeen’ we are confirming – there is no knowledge except what’s contained within the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. When he speaks, it’s the amr (command) of Allah (AJ). When Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ speaks through his soul it is the command of Allah (AJ). What Allah (AJ) describes, “Kullu amrun wa irada” – ‘Every amr and command and My will is within the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.’

(٨٢) إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ

36:82 – “Innama AmruHu idha Arada…” (Surat YaSeen)

“His Command is when He Wills/Intends a thing…” (YaSeen, 36:82)

There is No Knowledge Except Through the Knowledge and Light of Prophet ﷺ

So the manifest is what’s spoken and the will of Allah (AJ) that not manifested, is hidden within the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. So then there is no knowledge except through the knowledge and the light of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. That’s why Ayatul Kursi (The Verse of The Throne) describes him, describes that reality. So when Allah (AJ) want to grant that secret and that seen – means that is the secret of all light and the light of all secrets. This is what everything in creation is searching for that reality. So then the love and the movement towards the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is the movement towards all knowledges – ‘uloom ul awaleen wal akhireen (knowledges of the beginning and the end). ‘Ilm e Laduni wa hikmati bis Saliheen (Divinely Knowledge and Wisdom of the Righteous) because Allah (AJ) confirms that, ‘All the Qur’an knowledges and the hikmah (wisdom) I swore by it by YaSeen ﷺ.‘

Only the Companionship of Awliyaullah Can Grant You the Heavenly Realities

So then Allah (AJ) grant the servant the seen. So when they’re searching for that seen and asked to be dressed by that seen, only the companionship of awliyaullah can grant them these realities. So then they are the custodians of the reality of ya and seen. When you accompany them, they grant you from ‘Ilm ul Yaqeen (Knowledge of Certainty). These are all the knowledges that are contained in this reality because they don’t teach you accounting unless they have to. But they can do that too, but they teach you all the knowledges.

So everything they teach is to confirm this ya that they have. They have those knowledges that Allah (AJ) has bestowed upon them and as a result Allah (AJ) gave them yaqeen because the ya also stands for yaqeen and certainty. They are the owners of ya because that ya will now describe their sir and their secret of who they are. Because they are the reflections on earth to bring you to Sayyidina YaSeen ﷺ. So Allah (AJ) must have dressed them first. Because they can’t dress you if they don’t have it, with ya – granted them yaqeen, granted them from alif all the huroof to ya encapsulated with ya and say, ‘All these ‘uloom are in your heart and it’s anciently been given to you. We don’t care what you were doing as a kid and what you do as this. This was given to you in paradise. You came onto this earth with that reality.’

This World is an Abode of Nothingness, You Can’t Achieve Anything Here

Nothing is achieved here. There’s nothing here to achieve. You can’t do anything to achieve that reality. What dunya (material world) you were living in. Can you possibly achieve anything? No, we can’t. You can’t even win the lottery here. You can’t do nothing on this earth. This is the abode of nothingness. This must have been given. “Allamal Qur’an” [55:2], these are ancient knowledges that Allah (AJ) has bestowed upon these souls. When Allah (AJ) want to bring their knowledge out and their reality out, Allah (AJ) merely activate them and then cause them to have good character, good ‘amal, good actions, and then guides them. That’s why Allah (AJ) says, ‘There is no guidance except for when I guide.’

(٤٣) …وَقَالُوا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّـهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا لِهَـٰذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لِنَهْتَدِيَ لَوْلَا أَنْ هَدَانَا اللَّـهُ ۖ لَقَدْ جَاءَتْ رُسُلُ رَبِّنَا بِالْحَقِّ…

7:43 – “…wa qalo Alhamdulillahi al ladhee hadana lihadha wa ma kunna linahtadiya lawla an hadana Allahu, laqad jaa at Rusulu Rabbina bil Haqqi…” (Surat Al-A’raf)

“… And they will say, Praise be to Allah, who has guided us to this [joy and happiness]; and we would never have been guided if Allah had not guided us. Certainly the messengers of our Lord had come with the truth…” (The Heights, 7:43)

Allah (AJ) had to have activated the servant, perfected them, directed them into the correct direction and began to teach them. But because now all their knowledges are coming out. As a result those knowledges have to be bestowed to people whom are guided. That’s why many people may come to the door of this center and walk away, may come to the channel of this center; walk away. People say, ‘Oh there should be like you know a hundred thousand views for this video but there’s two thousand.’ Well because Allah (AJ) allowed those two thousand to understand that ‘uloom and it’s not available for everyone. It doesn’t make sense to most people. It’s not in the program of most people and if they listen to it, they pass out because it shuts their computer system down. It’s like they have no access code, no permission to listen. Soon as they hear it, they’re out. Their systems have shut off. It’s beyond their understanding or for their level.

The Knowledge of Yaqeen that Shaykhs Feed Your Soul are Not From Books

So means these ‘uloom and these knowledges of these servants, they’re granted the ya. They’re granted yaqeen, they’re granted certainty. So then they begin to dress you with the seen because they are walking sir – they are walking secret upon this earth. They’ll teach you from the first of the seen because like a W has these three oceans.

i- Ilm ul Yaqeen

The first is Ilm ul Yaqeen. So we have to be sitting in an association with one of these shaykhs of ya. That their ‘uloom and their knowledges are not from understanding and not from books. Not somebody read the ‘uloom of another shaykh but they are the shaykh. So they have this Ilm ul Yaqeen, and as a result of their Ilm ul Yaqeen the one’s whom are being fed from them because the knowledges are food. When you’re hungry, you sit at the table. When you’re full, you walk away from the table.

But you are being fed from their knowledges – that’s Ilm ul Yaqeen that we hear it, we’re moving with our soul into it because these ‘uloom they dress the soul. You hear it and at night you don’t ask but your soul will ask, ‘I heard a Divinely knowledge. A knowledge from the Muhammadan kingdom Ya Rabbi, let me to be dressed by it.’ As a result of Ilm ul Yaqeen, they are moving into the knowledges of certainty. The shaykh of ya then has to be training the students the same. This is how you know their kamil and their perfected curriculum.

ii- Ayn ul Yaqeen (Vision of Certainty)

That they have to be training you Ayn ul Yaqeen. Now is like the mystery of tariqah. Nobody’s teaching Ayn ul Yaqeen. Look at me with your eyes all the time, what you’re going to see. You’re just going to see, ‘This guy has a beard, he’s got a jubba (Islamic robe), don’t look any special to me.’ But that’s not the eyes you’re supposed to be training with. You have to be sitting with somebody who’s training you with Ayn ul Yaqeen. ‘Timeless Reality’ [book] – most of the questions they have is already in here. There’s a day coming when the internet’s going to shut. I already posted, they said half of Europe shut down, in the BBC. They’re going to shut it down, they’re going to do what they want to do.

Ilm ul Yaqeen Take Its True Understanding With Ayn ul Yaqeen

But if you don’t understand these knowledges, this is time to acquire. Not later when you say, ‘Oh yeah shaykh was right. Look the power is off everywhere. There’s gargoyles entering our dimension.’ They say, ‘Now I want to learn tafakkur.’ You have to do that now. Even now it’s becoming difficult, dunya is becoming more and more different. But the shaykh of yaqeen and certainty he has to be teaching Ilm ul Yaqeen. But this Ilm ul Yaqeen doesn’t take its true understanding until the shaykh begins to train the students with Ayn ul Yaqeen. That don’t absorb this knowledge with your exterior faculties. The ears you have, ah of no value to us. The eye you’re looking at me with and trying to compare me as, ‘You’re not anything special, I see you,’ is not going to be of any benefit. All the external faculties are of no use.

Shaykh Teaches You How to Use Your Internal Faculty

So then he trains you on how to use your internal faculty. Sit and meditate. Make your room dark like your grave, maybe one candle if you’re too scared, right. Meditate, contemplate, listen to salawats (praises upon Prophet Muhammad ﷺ), think of yourself in the presence of Prophet ﷺ. Think of yourself, ‘I’m going to die in a situation of ignorance. Nothing’s opening for me. Please open and connect my heart. I’m nothing, I’m nothing. Meditate, dress me from oceans of light, dress me from all these beatific realities.’ They sit and they sit and they sit, and they cry and they cry and they cry.

Shaykh Teaches You How to Be from Ahlul Basirah (the People Whose Hearts are Opened)

Allah (AJ) begin to open and they become Ahlul Basirah. They trust more their heart and they know the deception of their eyes. They know these eyes are completely under deception. They want to know what their heart is contemplating. They train with their heart and they meditate with their heart and in their heart realm they accompany all their shaykhs. In the physical realm, they may be very far away. But in their heart they’re right there present with them, present in the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, presence of Imam Ali (as), Sayyidina Adul Qadir Jilani (as). All whom Allah (AJ) are pleased with, they’re all in the same association. You don’t have to go far to find them. Right, you don’t go through heavens looking, ‘Where can I find this one?’ They’re all with Allah (AJ). That’s what Allah’s (AJ) describing. He’s not describing a location on earth. Nabiyeen (Prophets), siddiqeen (truthful), shuhadai (witnesses) wa saliheen (righteous), they’re in the same room. Who’s with them? Allah (AJ).

(٦٩) وَمَن يُطِعِ اللّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فَأُوْلَـئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللّهُ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَالصِّدِّيقِينَ وَالشُّهَدَاء وَالصَّالِحِينَ وَحَسُنَ أُولَـئِكَ رَفِيقًا

4:69 – “Wa man yuti’ Allaha war Rasola faolayeka ma’al ladheena an’ama Allahu ‘alayhim minan Nabiyeena, was Siddiqeena, wash Shuhadayi, was Saliheena wa hasuna olayeka rafeeqan.” (Surat An-Nisa)

“And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger (pbuh) are in the company of those on whom Allah has bestowed His Favours/Blessings – of the Prophets, the sincere Truthful, the Martyrs/Witnesses to the truth (who testify), and the Righteous, and excellent are those as companions.” (The Women, 4:69)

Block Out Everything and Focus on Your Shaykh

Allah’s eminence and power and radiant tajalli (manifestation) is in that association. As soon as they enter with their soul into that association their reality is actually they block out everything else and they focus to Prophet ﷺ. If that’s not what’s to be commanded then they’ll be given their heart that, ‘Focus on your shaykh,’ and they’ll focus everything out and they’ll focus onto their shaykh. Because he’s sending now a tajalli upon. If they talk about Sayyidina Ali (as) in that same association, they’ll blur everything out and go into the presence of Sayyidina Ali (as). So that he can mirror that reflection. So they don’t have to search, they’re all in the same room. Allah (AJ) is with them. This is an ocean of power and realities.

As a Result of the Knowledges that Students are Acquiring, They’re Tasting Its True Fruit

So then this shaykh of yaqeen has to be teaching them Ilm ul Yaqeen wa Ayn ul Yaqeen. As a result the knowledges that they’re acquiring they’re tasting its true fruit because they are opening through their soul. Otherwise if they’re just using the faculty of their head, they’re saying, ‘I don’t know. Maybe, I don’t know.’ Trying to absorb it in the head and that’s not the place for this knowledge. There’s not a debatable knowledge where you think, ‘Maybe, maybe not, maybe, maybe he meant this.’ No, but this is a yaqeen and certainty that as soon as they hear these knowledges they meditate the knowledges, they begin to take feelings and tastes from that knowledge. They’ll begin to understand the reality of that knowledge, they’ll taste it and witness that knowledge.

Again depending upon their strength; if their strength is strong as soon as the shaykh is speaking they’re witnessing that reality. They’re being dressed by its reality and it burns onto their soul. As a result they can speak about that reality. It’s already encrypted upon their soul. Their talks and suhbats (discourse) is like a google. They merely reference into their soul subject and then it begin to come out because already been burned onto their reality. It’s not here [head].

Head is Not the Faculty for Heavenly Knowledges

Here [head] you get dementia. When you get old, the one whom applied all his thought to here, Allah (AJ) says, ‘We take you back to a feeble state,’ because you used your head and you put too much energy on the head.

(٧٠) وَاللَّـهُ خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يَتَوَفَّاكُمْ ۚ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُرَدُّ إِلَىٰ أَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ لِكَيْ لَا يَعْلَمَ بَعْدَ عِلْمٍ شَيْئًا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّـهَ عَلِيمٌ قَدِيرٌ

16:70 – “Wallahu khalaqakum thumma yatawaffaakum, wa minkum man yuraddu ila ardhalil ‘umuri likay, la ya’lama bada ‘ilmin shayan, innAllaha ‘Alimun Qadeer.” (Surat An-Nahl)

“And Allah created you; then He will take your souls at death. And among you there are some who are sent back to most abject and a feeble age, so that they know nothing after having known (so much): for Allah is All-Knowing, All-Powerful.” (The Bee, 16:70)

As a result it actually fries the circuits. So all of these big professors they all have dementia. Because they were putting all their power here [head] and Allah (AJ) describe them like a donkey carrying books. They carry a thousand books and read, read, read, read, memorize everyday because they’re forgetting everyday. So they put so much focus here [head]. Dementia is because they put too much energy on their head.

Where we did the reverse. We said, ‘Empty your head.’ So Mawlana Shaykh (Q) would say, ‘No head people, no head people.’ It was actually a compliment because you didn’t use your head, you used your heart. So “La ilaha illAllah”, La [head], ilaha [to right], illAllah [heart]. ‘La’ – in my head. This is not my head. ‘IllAllah’ – into my heart. So means their tafakkur and contemplation is everything through their heart, these knowledges into their heart.

iii- Haqq ul Yaqeen (Certainty of Truth)

As a result of these knowledges and their contemplation and the yaqeen and certainty of their ayn – their vision of the heart, the Ahlul Basirah then the third is opening for them drop by drop, Haqq ul Yaqeen. So they have to be in a school of knowledges of certainty trained by a shaykh of Ayn ul Yaqeen – of the vision of certainty. This knowledge and this vision is producing for the student the haqq of certainty. If anyone is missing, not achievable.

If Someone Isn’t Training With Their Heart on How to Connect, They Can’t Achieve Haqq ul Yaqeen.

If they’re not being fed Ilm ul Yaqeen then they’re going nowhere. If they’re not being trained in Ayn ul Yaqeen on how to connect their heart because it’s not for here [head] in the eyes; it’s for here [heart]. If someone’s not training with their heart on how to connect and how to make their connection, they can’t achieve the Haqq ul Yaqeen. But if they are trained by knowledges of reality and certainty by a shaykh of certainty, trained in the vision of certainty and then trained in that vision and knowledge is producing for them Haqq ul Yaqeen.

So then the student is witnessing, it’s a truth. They say, ‘That shaykh is true. What he said I experienced it. I witnessed it,’ they say to that to themself. That’s how they know their shaykh because of what the shaykh is giving to them in their heart and in their soul. These are Haqq ul Yaqeen that is for all of eternity for them. That’s the importance of their role – is to convey.

Real Knowledge and Power That’s Being Dressed Upon the Servant is the Holy Qur’an

Then what Allah (AJ), Ilm ul Yaqeen, Ayn ul Yaqeen, Haqq ul Yaqeen, “YaSeen wal Qur’anal Hakeem.”

(٢) يس ﴿١﴾ وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكِيمِ

36:1-2 – “Ya-Seen. (1) Wal Qur’anal Hakeem. (2)” (Surat YaSeen)

“Ya-Seen. (1) By the Qur’an, full of Wisdom. (YaSeen, 36:1-2)

So when Allah (AJ) is giving this ya and giving the secrets of this seen onto the servant, Allah (AJ) then testify, “Wal Qur’anal Hakeem.” It means the real knowledges and the power that being dressed upon the servant is the Qur’an. Because Allah’s (AJ) not going to teach you the knowledges of just anything. These ‘uloom and these knowledges that are coming to you, Allah (AJ) is swearing by Qur’an – “Wal Qur’anal Hakeem” and every hikmah and wisdom of holy Qur’an.

Because everything is contained in holy Qur’an. Every knowledge is contained in holy Qur’an. It’s emanating from the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. So means then they know the Qur’an. The know the reality of its huroof and its inner depth of realities that are limitless. All these are kalaam al mursaleen because all these kalaam, all these huroof, these are all in the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.

Actual Siratal Mustaqim (The Straight Path) is Prophet ﷺ

“Wa ala Siratal Mustaqim.”

﴾٤﴿ ‎ ‏ عَلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيم‎

36:4 – “Ala Siratal Mustaqim.” (Surat YaSeen)

“On a straight path.” (YaSeen, 36:4)

Because Prophet’s ﷺ name is Sayyidina Siratal Mustaqim. So this knowledge and this love and this reality, these knowledges that will be conveyed by the shaykhs. Then Allah (AJ) is describing for us the immensity of its power that it’s the power of holy Qur’an, the realities of holy Qur’an that are dressing the servant. They are from kalaam al mursaleen, they are from the realities of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and those realities are keeping you on the reality of what really is siratal mustaqim. Not what outer people understood but the khawas (elite), what they understood. Outer people see a knife that [shaykh laughs] they have to walk on. They have to walk on this knife to get to the other side. But what if that knife is the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ where his name is Siratal Mustaqim. Dalail ul Khairat (book of praising on Prophet ﷺ), Sayyidina Siratal Mustaqim ﷺ.

That all these knowledges and all that what Allah (AJ) want to dress the servant, you’re being dressed with siratal mustaqim. You’re being dressed by the reality of that reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ that Prophet ﷺ is making you Muhammadiyoon, making you to be dressed and blessed, making you and duplicating you from himself ﷺ. So means that’s the immensity of these lights and these knowledges.

Who are Muhammadiyoon?

The one whom achieving these realities, dressed by these knowledges, dressed by these knowledges then what they’re becoming? They’re becoming Muhammadiyoon. That’s why Haqiqatul Muhammadiyah (the Muhammadan realities) is the highest of realities. That if all knowledges are in the heart of Prophet ﷺ then imagin the center-most reality is Haqiqatul Muhammadiyah. The one whom eating and drinking and feeding from that reality is becoming as they draw closer and closer and closer, they’re becoming Muhammadiyoon. Their whole reality becomes siratal mustaqim and that’s why they teach and they talk in a way that people don’t understand especially not zahiri – external people. We pray that Allah (AJ) dress us with the immensity of this holy month, immensity of the light and the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.

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.
