From The Teachings of Mawlana Shaykh (ق) as taught By Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi

A’udhu 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

In such simple understanding that you kind of think, “I knew that.” It doesn’t have to be in complicated language and complicated references that it is meant to go from heart to heart. They teach us from the signs outside to understand the reality inside. From the understandings of the Circles of Association, Circles of Remembrance and the way of purification, as a reminder for ourselves, what I am trying to accomplish by being inspired by the Divine to sit in the Circles of Remembrance. That I am asking my Lord: let me to reach to Your Light, let me to reach to Your Satisfaction, I am begging Your forgiveness at every moment and seeking Your Divinely satisfaction, ” Ilahi anta maqsudi wa ridaka matlub”.

اِلَهِى اَنْتَ مَقْصُوْدِيْ وَرِضَاكَ مَطْلُوْبِيْ

“ilahi anta maqsudi wa radhaaka matloob–

“My God, You are my aim, and Your Satisfaction is what I seek.”

Mawlana Jalaladdin Rumi (q) Met the Sun, Shams (q)

Then the understanding of the World of Light, to keep the company of enlightened people so that we may reach a state of enlightenment. A very simple understanding that even from traditional Sufi teachings Sayyidina Jalaluddin Rumi (q) with a lot of scholastic knowledge and exterior knowledge was lacking, in a sense of the fruit and the essence of the reality. He came across a master in his life, a teacher called Shams Tabriz (q). Again for us to make it very simple, shams is the sun and what we have to pull from that understanding is that the sun is a light, an eternal source of light.

﴾هُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ ضِيَاءً … ﴿٥

10:5 – “Huwal ladhee ja’alash shamsa Diya an …” (Surat Yunus)

“It is He who made the Sun a shining light …” (Jonah, 10:5)

When we say “light” are we talking of a fluorescent light? The Divine is saying, “No, look outside in your creation, do you see that sun?” It is eternal. The Sun is in constant fusion, a very clean energy and eternal, no source of energy that we understand. The Divine has its reality, but it is taking from elements and bringing them in and creating a fire, tremendous fire. As a result of that fire, it is emitting a tremendous light.

Without the Eternal light of the Sun (Guide), We Can’t Exist

That light when we begin to understand and study the sun it is a source of our breath, a source of our food, a source of our sight, it is a source of our life on this planet. No doubt the originator of the entire source is the Divine but, the Divine is teaching that through means of creation, you are existing. So one sign of your existence is that sun. Without that eternal light you cannot exist, you cannot breathe, you can’t eat, you cannot see. This means for us we are asking to open the reality of that sun. Then the tariqas (spiritual paths) come and begin to teach: the sun and the understanding of the sun is the reality of the heart, and how to open the reality of the heart.

One reality is the understanding of the masters, and then the most important reality is the understanding of ourselves. Masters, their hearts are suns. Now how they became a sun is in the understanding of the student. We are trying to sit in the presence of a fire, and that fire is not like a regular fire, but is coming with an eternal Divinely flame. So then the circles of zikr (remembrance), the real circles, with real servants of the Divine whose hearts are open, they have either a tremendous open heart or they have merely a pilot light within their heart, and immediately can be ignited and begin to emit a flame.

We Come to Spiritual Paths as Wet Logs

The importance of that understanding is to understand that we come like a wet log. These are the phases of the zikr (remembrance), always teaching by analogy, because people don’t understand themselves. So when you speak from analogy you get more of an understanding. When you come into the presence of a fire and you sit at the fire, the initial stage is that many come as a wet log; they have so much on themselves, so many burdens on themselves, so many distractions within their being. It is like a wet log and when you put the wet log in a fire, it feels nothing. So many come and say, “I didn’t feel anything.” They want us to understand that who knows himself will begin to know his Lord, will begin to know his path, will begin to know what they are trying to achieve.

مَنْ عَرَفَ نَفْسَهْ فَقَدْ عَرَفَ رَبَّهُ

“Man ‘arafa nafsahu faqad ‘arafa Rabbahu”

“Who knows himself, knows his Lord.” Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)

If I am not feeling anything, I am like a wet log. I have lots of burdens, lots of difficulties, again by analogy, I’ve lots of things that are making me in a state of moisture, of wetness, I am distracted. I sit and I don’t feel anything but it doesn’t mean that nothing is happening. That fire is still burning, it is still trying to cook that log but it is going through so many layers of moisture and moisture, and burdens and difficulties, the log doesn’t yet feel it is being cooked.

Be Like the Moth and Go to the Fire of Love

So what they want for us at that stage is to be persistent. Keep coming, keep coming, but we have to know the objective: I am asking my Lord, I am asking to burn in Your Divinely Flame. When you read all the poetry they begin to put all the pieces together, the poetry of the moth, how the moth is attracted to the fire and they want us to be attracted to the Divinely Fire.

حیلت رها کن عاشقا دیوانه شو دیوانه شو و اندر دل آتش درآ پروانه شو پروانه شو

Heelat reha kun ‘Ashiqa, dewana shaw, dewana shaw
Wandar dil Atash dara, parwana shaw, parwana shaw

Put aside your clever schemes!
O Lover, be mindless! Become mad!
Dive into the heart of the flame,
Become fearless, Become a moth
[Mawlana Jalaluddin Muhammad (Rumi)][/quote]

The moth doesn’t think, it just sees a fire and its instinct, Divine instinct is to be lost. When you see little flies and moths back home, they go straight into the fire. The Divine is saying with that ishq, with that love, you must approach Me.

Allah (AJ) has Honoured Human Being more than the Sun and the Moon

If the outside sun you are in need of, I have “walaqad karamna bani adam” (Quran 17:70), I have honored Mankind beyond the sun and the moon, I have honored the creation of Adam and Eve, I have blown of My Spirit into them. They are more powerful than suns.

﴾وَلَقَدْ كَرَّمْنَا بَنِي آدَمَ وَ… وَفَضَّلْنَاهُمْ عَلَىٰ كَثِيرٍ مِّمَّنْ خَلَقْنَا تَفْضِيلًا ﴿٧٠

17:70 – “Wa laqad karramna banee adama, …wa faddalnahum ‘ala katheerin mimman khalaqna tafdeela. (Surat Al-Isra)

“And We have certainly honored the children of Adam and…bestow upon them favours, and preferred them over much of what We have created, with [definite] preference.” (The Night Journey, 17:70)

﴾فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِى فَقَعُواْ لَهُ سَـجِدِينَ ﴿٢٩

15:29 – “Fa idha sawwaytuhu wa nafakhtu feehi min Rohee faqa’o lahu sajideen.” (Surat Al-Hijr)

“So when I have proportioned him and breathed into him of My [created] soul/spirit, then fall down to him in prostration.” (The Rocky Tract, 15:29)

So then they teach us by analogy to read about the sun. It is a source of fire, that many things are relying upon that sun and the Divine is saying that: you are more honored to Me than the sun, the moon and all the Heavens. This means that the potential you have within yourselves is unimaginable. So then I am sitting and asking let me to burn, let the badness to burn, let all that is distracting me from Your Divinely Presence to perish. [P]

Everyone Must Face the Fire Here or in Sirat ul Mustaqeem

Many poetries from Sayyidina Jalaluddin Rumi (q) about fire: dance in the fire, seek the fire, let the fire burn all that is other than the fire. [Pm]

“Kindle in thy heart the flame of love,
and burn up utterly thoughts and fine expressions” – Mawlana Rumi

“Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames” – Mawlana Rumi

It means it burns your possessions away, it burns your desires away, it burns your bad characters away until you feel yourself one with the flame. This is the description of the Divine ecstasy. What is burning is all that is other than the flame. [pm]

So the concept of jahannum (hellfire) is that everybody has to go through the flame. So Allah (AJ) describes: there is a very straight and narrow path. You have to walk on this at some day, either while you are alive and you face the fire or I catch you in the grave because the fire is My Divinely Love. You have to pass through that fire. If you are carrying anything from character, from dunya (material world) from all that is other than love, it is going to be burned in that Sirat al-Mustaqeem.[Q’n]

﴾عَلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ ﴿٤

36:4 – “Alaa Siraatil Mustaqeem.” (Surat YaSeen)

“On a straight path.” (YaSeen, 36:4)

Like anything else if we are a light and we are a flame, we go into the flame and pass as if nothing because everything is burned already in the material world. All the desires are burned, all the bad character is burned. And it is continuously burning because these desires keep coming but ashiqeen and the lovers of the reality, their flame is so strong it immediately burns away again. The desires come and the flames burn, the possessions come and the flames burn. The Divine is teaching if we don’t do that there is a Sirat al-Mustaqeem (Straight Path) and every tradition has it that you are going to pass through that fire and burns everything other than Divine Love. [Pic]

People of Nabi Musa (as) Took Their Gold Even to the Promised Land

People of Nabi Musa (as) were seeking the promised land and they wouldn’t let go of their gold. For forty years he was teaching them, “Leave the gold, leave the desires God will open for us a promised land.” They said no, no, no. [Q’n]

﴾وَقُلْنَا مِن بَعْدِهِ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ اسْكُنُوا الْأَرْضَ فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ الْآخِرَةِ جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا ﴿١٠٤

17:104 – “Wa qulnaa mim ba’dihee li Baneee Israaa’eelas kunul arda faizaa jaaa’a wa’dulaakhirati ji’naa bikum lafeefaa” (Surat Al-Isra)

“And We said thereafter to the Children of Israel, “Dwell securely in the land (of promise)”: but when the second of the warnings came to pass, We gathered you together in a mingled crowd.” (The Night Journey, 17:104)

Forty years of teaching and finally Nabi Musa (as) said, “Let’s go,” and they ran with so much gold they couldn’t even move. That is why they couldn’t escape Fir’aun (Pharaoh). They came with all their gold and all their possessions seeking the promised land until Fir’aun (Pharaoh) came upon them and tried to capture them by the water and the ocean parted and Allah (AJ) saved them on the shores of mercy.

﴾فَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ أَنِ اضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ الْبَحْرَ ۖ فَانفَلَقَ فَكَانَ كُلُّ فِرْقٍ كَالطَّوْدِ الْعَظِيمِ ﴿٦٣

26:63 – “Fa awhayna ila Mosa anidrib bi’asaka albahra, fanfalaqa fakana kullu firqin kattawdil ‘aZheem. (Surat Ash-Shu’ara)

“Then We inspired to Moses, “Strike with your staff the sea,” and it parted, and each portion was like a great towering mountain.” (The Poets, 26:63)

But Allah (AJ) had a plan, He told Nabi Musa (as) you go up and seclude yourself with Me. I am going to inspire them to take the gold and make a cow and then I will burn it. So He collected all their gold and manifested their desires that: this is what you like. He took all the gold that they wouldn’t part with for forty years, the desires of the material possessions, and Allah (AJ) inspired them to make the cow, that is really what you want.

Nabi Musa (as) Saw His Lord As a Burning Fire

It is a deep reality from Nabi Musa (as) because they are all about the same reality, because he saw his Lord as a burning fire.

﴾لَمَّا أَتَاهَا نُودِيَ مِن شَاطِئِ الْوَادِ الْأَيْمَنِ فِي الْبُقْعَةِ الْمُبَارَكَةِ مِنَ الشَّجَرَةِ أَن يَا مُوسَىٰ إِنِّي أَنَا اللَّـهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ ﴿٣٠

28:30 – “Falammaaa ataahaa noodiya min shaati’il waadil aimani fil buq’atil muubaarakati minash shajarati ai yaa Moosaaa inneee Anal laahu Rabbul ‘aalameen.” (Surat Al-Qasas)

“But when he came to it (fire), he was called from the right side of the valley in a blessed spot – from the tree, “O Moses, indeed I am Allah, Lord of the worlds.” (The Stories, 28:30)

That is the fire that they are telling us to sit at, the diya of Allah (AJ), the Divinely Fire of Allah (AJ) that we are asking, “Yaa Rabbi let me to sit at that fire and to sit with those whom You have put Your fire within their hearts.”

﴾هُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ ضِيَاءً … ﴿٥

10:5– “Huwal ladhee ja’alash shamsa Diya an …” (Surat Yunus)

“It is He who made the sun a shining glory …” (Jonah, 10:5)

When the Log become Dry, It Feels the Burning and Trials

Then we have to understand our stages. If I am a wet log I don’t feel anything and they are still burning, they are still cleaning until the wet becomes a bit dry. After it becomes dry, it begins to feel that when I go into the associations, into the zikr (remembrance) and I am living this life, I feel a burning. I feel difficulty and testing. I feel trials and tribulations. It means that log is now burning. It burns a lot faster the more you come, because you are near a source of flame. That flame is attracted to that wood, it begins to burn, begins to burn and begins to burn it until the wood begins to catch. The wood burns and burns, at that point many people will run.

Don’t Run Away from Burning and Purification

So you see them come and you see them go because the burning and the parting from their material desires, and from their characteristics, whatever is on that wood. Again this is an analogy, whatever is there that they thought they wanted to be burnt away, when the real fire comes, and the real fire begins, many say, “O it’s a bit too hot, I am taking off.” They may even talk bad about the fire on their way when departing. It doesn’t matter. They will be caught in the grave and the burning will begin in the qabr (grave). It is much easier to go through it while alive, much easier to do it in a state of love. That to understand my path and I am asking yaa Rabbi let me to sit in those associations, let me to take a life in which these desires begin to burn and begin to burn.

Different Levels of the Sun and Stations of the Heart

Then they remind us that in science you have three states of matter. When you come across these suns and we study the suns and the suns have degrees of what suns are. These are again like the Levels of the Heart. You have a Yellow Sun, you have a Red Sun, then you have a White Sun which they call the ‘dwarf sun’ and then they have a pulsar sun and then you have a Black Hole in the center of the lataif (subtle energy points).

It means the degrees in which the sun and each one billion times stronger than the other one. So even among the suns these are darajats (stations) of suns. The most basic is the sun of our galaxy because the galaxy is our body. Our planets are our organs, our qalb (heart) is where the shams (sun) should be and the Divine is asking: ignite your heart so it becomes the sun. This is the galaxy I gave you. As you see the galaxy outside you have a galaxy within you. If you cannot manage your galaxy, how can I open My Heavenly Galaxy to you? How can I open the understanding of the heavenly universe if you can’t manage your universe? [Pic]

The Process of Burning at Three States of Matter

1. First State is Solid, Hard to Ignite – Student is Very Opinionated

So then they begin to teach: sit amongst them who are open-hearted and they begin the burning process.

﴾يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّهَ وَكُونُوا مَعَ الصَّادِقِينَ ﴿١١٩

9:119 – “Ya ayyuhal ladheena amanoo ittaqollaha wa kono ma’as sadiqeen.” (Surat At-Tawba)

“O you who have believed, have consciousness of Allah and be with those who are truthful/ Pious /sincere (in words and deed).” (The Repentance, 9:119)

By burning, burning, burning that wood becomes like hay. From a sense of hay, it becomes almost like a liquid because it has burned so much. The guides begin to teach us that these are the states of matter. That we are at a solid state when we first come, very opinionated, very much into our desires of what we want and what we wish and what we think and what we know and what we have. That has to be burned and they teach us in very basic science, I think in 8^th grade science that if this matter is going to transform, you have to leave your solid state.

So then you sit, sit, sit, sit until you find your log is becoming like liquid, it burned, it has been tested. It sits in the flame, literally you go home heating up like you are on fire with fevers and colds and sicknesses over a lifetime, over a period of time not just in one day. Constantly, this is not only spiritual but physical testing in life, difficulties in life. Then you begin to understand that this is the life of cleansing. Better to be cleansed now than again in the grave. And that matter becomes like a liquid.

2. Second State is Liquid, Easier to Ignite – Student Becomes Flexible

Then they taught us in science that liquid is much easier to ignite than solid, so the hard part is done. So it means as the student is moving closer to that reality their state is liquid, their state is more easily ignitable to the next state which is gaseous. To make a solid into a gas is very difficult. Solid has to be burned down, has to attend, has to do the zikr (remembrance), has to do the chanting, has to accompany those lights and these suns. When it accompanies, it begins to burn, begins to burn, it finds its character becoming more liquid. Hence lucid, flowing, and less objection, you see the character change. Water, anything you pour it into, okay, there is little bit of a struggle but it goes in, until more fire, more fire, and more fire.

This means as we are approaching the Divine Light, it is the light that Nabi Musa (as) was teaching us. That when you are in a state of love and you are asking to meet your Lord, it comes to you with a flame, this is a flame of Divinely Presence, of Divinely Light and it burns away everything other than that love and you find yourself becoming liquid.

28:30 – “Falammaaa ataahaa noodiya min shaati’il waadil aimani fil buq’atil muubaarakati minash shajarati ai yaa Moosaaa inneee Anal laahu Rabbul ‘aalameen.” (Surat Al-Qasas)

“But when he came to it (fire), he was called from the right side of the valley in a blessed spot – from the tree, “O Moses, indeed I am Allah, Lord of the worlds.” (The Stories, 28:30)

3. Third State is Gas – Ethereal State – Student Becomes Subtle to Energies

Then turning from liquid to gas is very fast. At that state, when the student is reaching a liquid state means their entire being can quickly ignite. They become very sensitive to the energy all around them. They begin to look at the signs in the universe. One sign is that they begin to look at the signs within the universe, you look at the physical sun and see the eruptions on the sun and you begin to understand you are heating up every time you see the sun erupting, that your body changes based on what is happening on this dunya (material world) because Allah (AJ) is saying: you are just a piece of this entire fabric; whatever is happening outside is a reflection of what is happening inside.

﴾سَنُرِ‌يهِمْ آيَاتِنَا فِي الْآفَاقِ وَفِي أَنفُسِهِمْ حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ ۗ … ﴿٥٣

41:53 – “Sanureehim ayatina fil afaqi wa fee anfusihim hatta yatabayyana lahum annahu alhaqqu…” (Surat Al-Isra)

“We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth…”
(The Night Journey, 41:53)

You begin to understand your subtle nature, you are moving from a physical hard nature to a subtle lateef, nature. Subtle nature is like gas, immediately the liquid state ignites to an ethereal angelic state, just a little bit of that light and the soul is moving freely.

They teach: these are the states we are trying to reach. This is us. When the Shaykh sees that and sees that you are reaching the ethereal state. That you are liquid, it means your tarbiyya (manners) and your tasleem (submission) is very strong because you are like liquid, whatever he puts you through you endure. You keep coming, keep coming and become like a gas that immediately you are able to leave your physical confines and you are moving with the power of your soul and at that time they give permission to ignite you.[Pic]

When Ignited, an Eternal Flame is Given to the Heart of Student

When the student is ignited means his eternal flame has been given by permission of Allah (AJ), permission of Prophet ﷺ and permission from awliyullah (saints) that the flame lit into the heart. That is an eternal gift given by Allah (AJ) that cannot be taken away. Nobody can say, “Maybe they made a mistake, maybe they didn’t know what they were doing.” They go through so much difficulty for Allah (AJ) to give that state. And what Allah (AJ) gives, He never takes back because He never made a mistake in the first place. We make mistakes. Allah (AJ) doesn’t make mistakes. It means the state of ‘being lit’ the shaykh at that time says, “You are at a gaseous state and you have endured all the understanding of these testing and trials. Your pilot is lit.”[P]

The specialty of Naqshbandiya is that when their pilot is lit and their lights are on, they have the ability to shut ‘on and off’ instantly. So you may see them as very normal people interacting in many different things but when Allah (AJ) wants them on, Prophet ﷺ wants them on, Mawlana Shaykh wants them on, immediately just their zikr (remembrance), their state of haal (spiritual state) ignites their entire being. They just pass their being through that fire and can ignite their entire soul. Their soul and the size of their soul is beyond understanding, beyond the size of this Earth. The Earth fits within the hand of their soul.

When Heart is Lit, the Process of Burning is From Within

This means that ability in which to ignite the soul, once the student is lit, it means their heart is lit. Once the heart is lit, Allah (AJ) keeps sending the fire to make sure it continues to be cleaned. This means they can be cleaned by just sitting in bed and sleeping, because Allah (AJ) sends a tajalli (manifestation) to a lit heart. It means the pilot is lit. All the work was to get the pilot light lit. Once it is lit, the Divine sends any type of ignition into that heart and immediately it goes into a state. It can go into a state while sleeping, while sitting, while watching TV, or eating dinner. Then immediately an energy comes and the Divine begins the process of burning from within, and begins to burn everything on the outside and constantly keeping those whom are lit to be purified and clean. These are the ones who are mahfuz (safeguarded), they are guarded by the Divine, because when He gives He guards, He safeguards them. If He finds too much calcification or incorrect growing upon them, He merely ignites their heart and they go into a state of burning and again all the burning and badness will begin to burn away because they have been reached, and their internal being has been reached. [Q]

The Process of the Sun Formation and Levels of the Heart

From the level of the sun then they begin to open not regular sun, they move into the understanding of the red giant. The red when we begin to understand, these are huge giant suns. They even have a factory within themselves of what is happening and again the degrees of awliyullah (saints) are unimaginable. There is not just one level. Just for us to understand that when Mawlana Shaykh lights the heart or given permission for the heart to be lit, it is tremendous reality. And because of that reality they are capable of emitting a tremendous light.

Then from the Levels of the Heart you begin to understand the levels of the suns. Just by studying the external knowledge of the suns, the size difference, what is happening within these suns, from our little yellow sun to the big red giant suns? From the pulsar which is such a powerful massive sun that it even loses its mass and collapses within itself. This was the state in which Sayyidina Ali (as) was saying, “My annihilation within my annihilation.”[hds]

It means the sun is already in a state of annihilation, it has lost its physicality and annihilated itself in Divine Reality, as a result of losing its mass it is now just energy. What Einstein was trying to understand was that formula of how to reach energy.

E = MC²

Energy = Mass x Light²

When they begin to lose the importance of their mass, then their energy is two lights; the two lights squared within them. Then as the degree of their sainthood is elevating, elevating, elevating…, then you begin to study these white dwarfs and pulsars they actually collapse within their reality. Then they become so dense and so powerful that it is unimaginable until the black and the black which is the state of complete annihilation, is the black hole. The black hole means it collapses upon itself but not only it collapses upon itself but anything it approaches, it annihilates it. These are the big saints, their duty is merely to bring every body into that annihilation and throw them from fana (annihilation) back into baqa because once you are annihilated and destroyed in that presence, you will be resurrected in the Divinely Presence. These are the stations of awliya (saints).

Can You Take the Heat or Run Away?

These are the chain and the understanding of these saints. Each one above are much more powerful, each one above with a completely different understanding and duty. To reach to these awliya and to understand that I am asking to sit in their associations I am asking to burn. Then let the burning begin. Many people as soon as the burning begins, they run because they can’t take the heat. They say if you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen. That is the cooking because they want to take us to a station of light.

If your knowledge of fire
has been turned to certainty by Words alone,
Then Seek to be cooked by the fire itself.
Don’t abide in borrowed certainty
There is no real certainty until you burn;
If you wish for this, sit down in the fire”
(Mawlana Jalaluddin Balkhi (Rumi)

InshaAllah with more understanding that Mawlana Shaykh opens for us and that Allah (AJ) grants us an understanding Prophet ﷺ grants us an understanding of the magnificence and the munificence of the Divinely gift walaqad karamna bani adam.

﴾وَلَقَدْ كَرَّ‌مْنَا بَنِي آدَمَ…﴿٧٠

17:70 – “Wa laqad karramna bani adama…” (Surat Al-Isra)

“And We have certainly honored the children of Adam…” (The Night Journey, 17:70)

We Believe More in Our Phones Than the Power of Our Soul

The state of light and the understanding of light is beyond imagination. It is beyond what we can even understand of what Allah (AJ), the Divine wanted to give to us, but in exchange what we are actually choosing. We are choosing the worst and the lowest of this Creation. We are not seeking the Light but seeking everything of the material world and losing our state of light, and our understanding of light. Every technology we have around us is based on energy and light. We rely more on that technology than developing it for ourselves. That is what shaytan wants. The bad ego wants that you just play with the phone, to believe in the phone but don’t ever think that you are more powerful than that phone, that your heart can move from here to the universe to the seven heavens in the blink of an eye, it can send videos, can send signals, can send audio. We pray that the understanding begins to open more and more within our heart inshaAllah.

﴾يَا مَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنسِ إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَن تَنفُذُوا مِنْ أَقْطَارِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ فَانفُذُوا ۚ لَا تَنفُذُونَ إِلَّا بِسُلْطَانٍ ﴿٣٣

55:33 – “Ya ma’ashara al jinni wal insi inistata’tum an tanfudho min aqtari asSamawati wal Ardi fanfudho, La tanfudhona illa bi Sultan.” (Surat Ar-Rahman)

“O gathering/assembly of jin and mankind, if you are able to penetrate through the atmosphere and pass beyond the zones of the Heavens and Earth, then Penetrate. You will never be able to pass, Except with a King, you need a sultan.” (The Beneficient, 55:33)

Subhaana rabbika rabbil izzati `amma yasifoon wa salaamun `alal mursaleen wal hamdulillahi rabbil `aalameen. Bi hurmati habeeb al-Mustafa wa bi sirri surat al-Fatiha.
