Sayyidatina Fatima Zahra’s (as) Key to Accepted Prayers
From the Realities of Mawlana (Q) as taught by Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi
أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ ٱلْرَّجِيمِ
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
A’uzu Billahi Minash Shaitanir Rajeem
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
I seek refuge in Allah (AJ) 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)
Jumadal Thani Opens the 54th Ismullah: Al-Matin, 54th Ismur Rasul: Sayyidina Siraj ﷺ
That alhamdulillah, Allah (AJ) granted us a life in which to enter into this holy month. The sixth lunar month and the immensity of the realities of 6 and wadood and love – Divinely love. That everything is created from Allah’s (AJ) Divinely love. When this Divinely love mixes with the 9 and the reality of the sultanate (kingdom), it grants us the secrets and the realities of 54. The 54th name of Allah (AJ) – Al-Matin and The Forceful One, and the 54th name that Prophet ﷺ opening Al-Matin is the name of Ismur Rasul – Muhammadun Sirajun, is Sayyidina Siraj ﷺ – The Lamp. The immensity of that lamp opens up the 54th surah (chapter) governing this month, and the month of qamar (moon) and lights and blessings, the surah of the moon. “Fa fatah abwaba al sama bi ma in munhamirin”.
﴾فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ أَنِّي مَغْلُوبٌ فَانتَصِرْ ﴿١٠﴾ فَفَتَحْنَا أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ بِمَاءٍ مُّنْهَمِرٍ ﴿١١
54:10-11 – “Fada Aa rabba hu annee Maghloobun Faintasir. (10) Fa fatahna abwaba al sama bi ma in munhamirin. (11) (Surat Al- Qamar)
“Then he called on his Lord: ‘I am one Overpowered/overcome: Please then help (me)! (10) So We opened the gates of heaven, with water pouring forth. (11)” (The Moon, 54:10-11)
Glory Be to Him Who is Rich, Who Never Grows Indigent
In which Allah (AJ) saved Sayyidina Nuh (as) from the immensity of the satanic difficulties. He prayed upon Allah (AJ) that, ‘Save me from all that shaitan is putting upon us and grant us from your Divinely waters.’ Allah (AJ) opened the gates of heavens and flooded with Divinely waters and Divinely grace. The immensities of this holy month of qamar and the hijab (veil) for the month, “Subhana man huwal ghaniyu la yafqaru”.
سُبْحَانَ مَنْ هُوَ الْغَنِيُّ لَّايَفْقَرُوْ
“Subhana man huwal ghaniyu la yafqaru”
“Glory be to Him who is the Rich, who never grows indigent”
‘The one whom has richness and never grows poor.’ If Allah (AJ) granting from these lights and the richnesses of knowledges and lights and realities, never will they be poor because Allah (AJ), Allah (AJ) when He grants light, and whatever Allah (AJ) grants doesn’t take from us, doesn’t take it away from us. So, these are eternal gifts that dress upon the soul.
Shaitan Created a Society of Backbiting So We Lose the Lights Allah (AJ) Bestowed
The only way we can lose them is by backbiting. It means the sins that people do, they don’t take away the lights that Allah (AJ) gave to them. But the only way to lose the lights that Allah (AJ) gives to His servants is through ghibah and backbiting. That’s why shaitan makes a society based on backbiting to make them to be bankrupt. A bankrupt society that whatever light God has given to them will be taken. Without light, all we have is darkness, zulum (oppression), and sins. This is then the object of shaitan, the purpose of shaitan is, in last days, that make these people backbite. ‘The only way I can get their light to be pulled from them is by backbiting.’
Whatever Allah (AJ) gives from His eternal rahmah and mercy never can be lost. We just lose it by backbiting. But it, no matter how much of sins, it doesn’t take away the ni’mat (blessing), the light that Allah (AJ) has granted to His servants. We pray that Allah (AJ) grants us the himmah, the zeal in which to do good deeds this month as it’s a month of dressings and blessings to prepare us for the month of Rajab opening, the month of Sha’ban opening, and the Divinely gifts of the holy month of Ramadan.
Celebrate the Urs Mubarak of Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) This Month
This is the sixth month of love in which Allah (AJ) wants to package the love for the servant and prepare them for these immense dressings of the seventh, eighth, and nine lunar month. With that, Allah (AJ) gave the greatest of gifts with the Urs Mubarak of Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) coming on the 3rd of this month. The significance of the Urs is the accomplishment of life in Allah’s (AJ) way. The wiladat and birth is a reality that you celebrate so that Allah (AJ) grants us from this birth, a birth within ourselves. But Urs and the Urs Mubarak, the blessed celebration of the servant passing from dunya (material world) and moving to their paradise reality is the gift of their struggle in life.
That’s why the Urs has such immense significance because these holy servants, their lives were difficult. They struggled immensely in the way of Allah (AJ). What Allah (AJ) granted to them of gifts and realities, the completion, the completion of their struggle. One gift is to enter into the world. The more amazing gift is if you succeeded in making Allah (AJ) happy with your existence. Imagine then, the reward Allah (AJ) gives as you are exiting this world. The celebration with these holy souls, that in the immensity of what you’ve struggled and in the immensity of the love that you have for Allah (AJ), is the embodiment of the love to Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. You live the example of that love, that dress us. We’ll never be a people or a person that could ever be given an existence like that, nor even accomplish an existence like that. Prophet ﷺ gave to us a hadith that gave us this blessing, “You’ll be with whom you love.” That’s why Sayyidina Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (as) was so happy by it.
.”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]
You’ll Be With Those Whom You Love
Everyone has a station. You try your best to accomplish your station, but you can never achieve the station of these holy souls. With all the zeal, with all the goodness, nobody comes even near that goodness. Nobody comes near the zeal and the desire to do as they did. But Prophet ﷺ gave us, ‘I give you a key and a secret: you’ll be with those whom you love.’ So, love Allah’s (AJ) best servants. But now shaitan has everybody loving Allah’s (AJ) worst servants, and whatever bad they do, you share in their badness if that’s what you attached your heart to. So, then Prophet’s ﷺ guidance to these awliya (saints) and those who love awliyaullah (saints) and follow their example is – love whom Allah (AJ) loves.
What you can accomplish through that love is not something even imaginable. You think that if what you can accomplish with your own strength in this world is nothing. If anyone has ever tried to do anything from their own strength, nothing is possible. You know, we have the zawiyah (spiritual school of Sufism) and by yourself, sitting one person trying to do something is very difficult. When Allah (AJ) sends support and 15 of His rijal (people of maturity) enter, in one afternoon, turn it into a masjid. Allah (AJ) supports. He sends people whom have a love. Their love and zeal has barakah (blessings) and immediately, they move things. This just for us, an example from the physical world and people whom are striving to do good, but we’re not like them.
Gaining Love of Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) is Supreme
Imagine loving then Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) and her immense love for Allah (AJ), her love for Prophet ﷺ, and coming and saying that, in our days of weakness and difficulty and the sorrow that we have for our families and for our children, that our families are not succeeding in the immense levels of faith. Any relatives you talk to, they’re leaving. They’re, ‘Oh, we don’t need this.’ They’re coming up to be clever. Then you think that children are under immense battle, immense difficulty, horrific choices, none of which are good. We say that this is why, “Fa fatah abwaba al sama”.
﴾فَفَتَحْنَا أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ بِمَاءٍ مُّنْهَمِرٍ ﴿١١
54:11 – “Fa fatahna abwaba al sama bi ma in munhamirin.” (Surat Al-Qamar)
“So We opened the gates of heaven, with water pouring forth.” (The Moon, 54:11)
That if Sayyidina Nuh (as), in his time, was crying to Allah (AJ), that, ‘Shaitan has destroyed me. He’s made sins and difficulties all around me. If left to what shaitan has thrown on me, I have no chance.’ Now imagine ourselves, that, ‘Ya Rabbi, I have no chance for what shaitan is putting upon me, upon my family, upon my loved ones, upon my community.’
How are we going to wash this away? How are we going to take these difficulties away? How are we going to have salvation in the last days? How are we going to end up to see Sayyidina Mahdi (as)? Then Prophet’s ﷺ hadith comes, very easy: love, whom you love you will be with. So, love the right one. So, this immense love for Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) is of the most supreme ones in which we love you. We can never do anything that grabs your attention from our worshipness other than this love.
Perform Good Deeds for the Sake of Sayyidatina Fatima’s (as) Urs Mubarak
Love is something nobody judges. Allah (AJ) doesn’t judge. Allah’s (AJ) servants are under that rahmah (mercy). Then how to judge it? What’s a good love and a bad love? What’s a love with too much expectation? Nothing. That even giving water, a grain of rice, a celebration, clicking and sending out the teachings. That, ‘Did you know that this is the weekend of the Urs Mubarak of Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as)?’ Send it everywhere and say, ‘For the sake of her holy life, give out water. Give a donation to the poor. Give out some food so that she’ll be pleased with us. Allah (AJ) will be pleased with everyone.’ That these lights and these dressings dress ourselves. That we ask her, ‘Please, that you make the du’a (supplication) to Allah (AJ), that you make the du’a to Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ to save us. Because if your holy lips and your holy heart takes my case, the case of my children, my family, my loved ones, my community, then I know that case is settled.’
Anyone who studied the life of Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) knows whatever she asks Prophet ﷺ in the way of Allah (AJ) is accepted. How to get her to take our case in life, that, ‘I hear you. I see that the acts that you do out of love. I will ask my father on your behalf.’ Because the light of Al-Batul (highest station of purity) is the purified light (as) of the Holy Qur’an. When Allah (AJ) created this reality of the rahem and the womb of this light and all the lights that would come from this is the secret that Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) is carrying. That the secret of how creation comes into existence, the uloom and the knowledges because Allah (AJ) is the one who creates.
Paradise Comes From the Feet of Your Mother Because She Carries the Secret of Al-Khaliq
But Allah (AJ), by cause and effect and knowledges, gives this power of creation in each creation. Right? How, how a woman has two energy points and how within her womb, she brings creation into existence. That within her womb, she’s making a heart. Within her womb, she makes two kidneys. Within her womb, she makes a brain. Within her womb, she makes all this vascular system and all of this miracle we call creation is with what? Not to simplify and to say, ‘It’s Allah (AJ) Al-Khaliq (The Creator).’ But Allah (AJ) say, ‘This is an uloom and a knowledge. I give these knowledge and this reality to the womb of that woman.’
That’s why paradise under the feet of that mother because she carries a secret from Allah (AJ) – Al–Khaliq. It’s because of that honour, prophets (as) came into existence. It’s the honour of women that brought prophets (as) and saints and people, famous people, famous and blessed souls all came from a womb of a woman and its secret and its realities. Then imagine that Allah (AJ) gave that immense secret to Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) because this is from Prophet’s ﷺ gift of realities in the world of malakut (heavenly realm).
عَنْ أَنَسَ بِنْ مَالِكُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ: “الجَنَّةُ تَحْتَ أَقْدَامِ الأُمَّهَاتِ”
‘An Anas bin Maliku (ra), Qala Rasulullahi ﷺ :“Al Jannatu tahta aqdamil ummahati.” [Sunan bin Maja]
Narrated by Annas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: “Paradise is under the feet of the mothers.” [bin Maja]
Is Your Name in Prophet’s ﷺ Heart?
When we do these good deeds, good – these actions in these days and this blessed weekend asking, ‘Ya Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as), please, that look upon us. Gaze upon us. Bless us from your immense lights. That take our case to Prophet ﷺ with your rida and satisfaction. That if you be pleased with us and Prophet ﷺ looks into your heart and should see our name, that’s a great accomplishment.’ That when he looks because everyone’s nazar (gaze) is on the heart. That we’ve described many times: you can talk all you want to Allah (AJ) and say, ‘Ya Rabbi, I love you I love you, I love you, I love you.’ First thing He says, ‘How come I don’t see your name in Prophet’s ﷺ heart? How you didn’t get his attention ‘alayhis salaam, ﷺ?’ Everything in love is by proof; not we just say things like a philosophy. So, we do all these good deeds, why? So, that our name enters into the heart of Prophet ﷺ.
So, that why? For these people who claim to love Allah (AJ) and say, ‘You focus so much on others, but why you don’t focus on Allah (AJ)?’ No, it’s the secret of Allah (AJ). That Allah’s (AJ) looking to the heart of His most beloved servant and saying, ‘Why I don’t see your name here if you love Me? You didn’t want to make my Rasul ﷺ happy?’ So, that’s why we do what we do. We do good deeds, good character, good actions so that Prophet ﷺ is continuously looking at us. Our name is like a flash. It’s headlining within the heart. Now Allah (AJ) is looking. Then, when you ask Allah (AJ), you’re verified because, ‘Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ, I see your name in his holy heart. Now, what you ask of Me, ask’.
Be Successful By Ensuring You’re in the Hearts of Holy People
Now we go to the next level. We said you’re asking from Prophet ﷺ. He’s looking like that example. ‘Why then my family doesn’t have your name in their hearts? You don’t like them? You don’t love them? You didn’t understand anything about my love that I’m in them and they’re in me – mini wa minhum?’ That’s why we do these good deeds. That’s why we’re extremely successful in all of these actions. The tariqah (spiritual path) teaches how to succeed just like you go to business school, you go to what kind of a professional school, colleges, wherever you’re going in life, somebody has to teach you how to succeed. It just doesn’t naturally occur to most people. The tariqah teaches success. You want success? Make sure you’re in the hearts of these holy people.
So, you give water. Give food. Do good actions. Propagate their birth and their passing. That their lives mattered, they accomplished immense accomplishments. They suffered greatly for the sake of Allah (AJ). This is an act of love. Your name enters into the whole heart because their deed, their character is so good. They say not even a grain of rice will not be acknowledged by them. They’re not a people who forget the deeds of servants. Then they describe Mawlana Shaykh (Q) was like this. All awliya (saints) are like this. If one good deed is done, they never forget it. We said that do shaykhs forgive? Yeah, they forgive everything. They forget nothing. Allah (AJ) took away heedlessness and forgetfulness. This for bad things, imagine the good. Never, never a good deed is something forgotten.
Our Love is Based on Proof and Faith in Action
So, imagine then these holy souls, they see, ‘Oh you propagated my birth. You propagated my life, how much I suffer, and my…keep my children alive. Keep the message alive. Keep these practices alive. How much you gave water for me, food for me, fed people for me in my name and in my honour to raise…raise my name amongst people, you did all these things.’ No doubt, your name is like flashing into their hearts.
Prophet ﷺ is now seeing, ‘Now I see your name in their hearts. I see your name in the hearts of my Holy Companions, my Family. You’re now registered, you’re true servant.’ This is truth; not people just they want to say by their mouth, but they have no faith in action. There’s no actions. Who you gave food for in whose name?’ Say, ‘I didn’t do anything, Shaykh.’ What are you doing like that? Everything is based on the proof and faith in action. As a result, you become verified in their hearts.
Make Your Faith True By Showing Who You Love and How Much
That’s why it’s so successful, so powerful. How many people, mashAllah, they’re giving? How many thousands of pounds of food we’re picking up? Now it’s becoming difficult in certain communities to even get groceries without paying their rent. Either they pay the rent or they can’t get groceries. They’re getting now bags of free food where other people are selling the free food that they got. They got it free. Even that, they want to sell it. We come and we give all the free groceries. You give water, you give water wells, you give everything that you can give. These are immense acts of love to get their nazar (gaze), to get their blessings. That ‘Please just gaze upon me. Put my name within your heart.’ Prophet ﷺ will hear that and my accounts will be settled. Not only that, that I love you so much. I will even ask Prophet ﷺ on your behalf.
So, this is the reality of our faith in action. We’re not a people who have a philosophy. We’re not a people who just say, ‘You know this, this, this, this’ and repeat and walk away. But what we’ve been inspired by our shaykhs is: make your faith true. That you have actions to validate and verify what you’re doing and what you love, who you love, how much you love them. So now, mashAllah, look on the internet – thousands of people sharing posts, spreading Muhammadan love, the love of Prophet ﷺ. Every post is going out: this Prophet ﷺ, Prophet ﷺ, Prophet ﷺ. The majestic sunnah (traditions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ), the majestic turban, the majestic beard, all of these propagating. Why? To show that in a time where dajjal (man of deceit) is now ruling everything, no, no, the other team is the only other team is Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ.
Those Who Participate in Good Deeds Will Always Find Success
We pray that Allah (AJ) dress us, bless us, and give us a zeal within our hearts that has so much power. We don’t know anyone who’s tried this formula and didn’t succeed. We never got an email, ‘Shaykh, I listen to everything you said. I give so much food out and I still feel miserable. I feel nothing has opened for me.’ He’s lying. We have not even heard anything like that. The people who fed, the people who did, the people who propagate and give out knowledges, share articles, share knowledges, the people whom spread the love of Prophet ﷺ, his whole Ahlul Bayt and family, his beloved companions, they’re always successful in Allah’s (AJ) success.
Now, if you wanted something that’s not what Allah (AJ) wants, that’s a different subject. But to find success with Allah (AJ) is at night, you say, ‘Alhamdulillah, ya Rabbi, I tried my best. Tomorrow, grant me more strength, so, inshaAllah, maybe I can do more to please You more until I take my last breath. That I know that I want to be in the companionship of those whom I love.’ If my love of dunya (material world) and in my dunya that was my love, imagine then in akhirah (hereafter) who we sit amongst and eat amongst and pray amongst. InshaAllah, Allah (AJ) grant us this reward and that the holy nazar (gaze) of Sayyidatina Fatima tul Zahra (as) be upon us, our families, our children, our communities, all our loved ones. That she take our case and our difficulties and that present them to Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, to be under her holy chadur (veil) and to be dressed and blessed by those lights, 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.
