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 Satan, the rejected one
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful

Alhamdulillahi Rabbil ‘aalameen, was salaatu was salaamu ‘alaa Ashraful 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.

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. 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. That we took a path in which to be nothing.

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)

Allah (AJ) Has Dressed Shaykhs With the Ya of Yaqeen and the Seen of Sir

“A’uzu Billahi Minash Shaitanir Rajeem Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. Ya-Seen. Wal Qur’anal Hakeem. Innaka laminal mursaleen. ‘Ala siratil mustaqeem.”

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

36:1-4 – “Ya-seen.(1) Wal Qur’anal Hakeem. (2) Innaka laminal mursaleen. (3) ‘Ala siratim mustaqeem. (4) (Surat YaSeen)

“Ya-seen.(1) By the Qur’an, full of Wisdom. (2) Indeed you, [O Muhammad], are from among the messengers. (3) On a straight path. (4) (YaSeen, 36:1-4)

Alhamdulillah, that one of the names of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, Sayyidina Siratal Mustaqim ﷺ. It means that for us, our understanding that with this ‘uloom (knowledges) of ya and the perfection of seen that we talked in the last two nights, that what Allah (AJ) want to give the people of ishq and muhabbat (love) and ma’rifah (gnosticism) is to cast within their hearts all knowledges from these shaykhs of yaqeen (certainty). That Allah (AJ) has dressed them from the reality of ya and yaqeen and dressed them from sir (secret). They have Sirratun Nabi ﷺ. They have the secret from Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ within their wujud (existence), within their being.

Guides Teach From Open Hearts, Not Open Books

Then as a result, they are sent back upon this Earth to guide to the oceans of certainty. ‘Guide your students with knowledges of yaqeen. ‘Ilm ul Yaqeen, not the knowledge of a book, but knowledges that are not in the book,’ and they don’t go by a book. As a result of those knowledges that are coming live on a frequency, the difference between reading something is from your brain to your brain. When you read something to somebody, you’re transferring something from your brain. It’s not from your heart.

So this knowledge of the heart, the knowledge of realities is that it’s not rehearsed. It’s not written so whatever coming live into their heart, they are conveying that reality. As a result of that ‘Ilm ul Yaqeen (Knowledge of Certainty), because it’s from the oceans of haqqaiq (realities), they train their students on ‘Ayn ul Yaqeen (Vision of Certainty) – how to connect and become from Ahlul Basirah (the people whose hearts are opened).

Dajjal Recruits Influencers to Corrupt Our Beliefs

That dajjal (man of deceit) is taking over what you hear. Dajjal has taken over what you see. If you’re not Ahlul Basirah, you have no existence; no, no chance of existence on this Earth. If you’re going to take your life from what you hear, well, because it’s all deceit, right? All social media is deceptive and deception and shaitan (satan) calls his agents what? ‘Influencers.’

He gave them titles that not very difficult to understand. We don’t have to do rocket science. Allah’s (AJ) going to say, ‘You didn’t hear the titles?’ Say, ‘Yeah, he’s an influencer.’ Their job is to influence your incorrect faith. Wa ‘Ilm ul Yaqeen means that comes to us and then we train for Ayn ul Yaqeen (Vision of Certainty). We are the Ahle Tafakkur, those whom Allah (AJ) described throughout Qur’an, ‘They don’t know, but the people of tafakkur. Everything praises Me, but they don’t know except the people of tafakkur.’

﴾وَسَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعاً مِّنْهُ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لَّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ﴿١٣

45:13 – “Wa sakhkhara lakum ma fis Samawati wa ma fil Ardi jamee’an minhu, inna fee dhalika la ayatin liqawmin yatafakkaron.” (Surat Al-Jathiya)

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

Knowledges Open Through Connection With Your Shaykh

It means every reference that Allah (AJ) gives to this category of rijal (people of maturity) and ‘Ibadullah (Devoted Servants of Allah (AJ)), that to achieve. When they’re from Ahle Tafakkur (People of Contemplation), it means these knowledges that come and in their heart, they’ve opened through their training; how to connect with the shaykh in the world of light, how to reflect from the faiz (downpouring blessings) of the shaykh into their heart which is the reflection from their shaykh, to their shaykh, to their shaykh from the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. All Ahlul Bayt (Holy family of Prophet ﷺ) and Ashabil Kiram are reflecting those signals into their heart.

As a result of Ahlul Basirah (people whose hearts are opened) and their training, this knowledge and their vision of certainty, Allah (AJ) give them khashf (spiritual state) and make it to be a haq (truth). Because they’re not giving you vision, they’re training you. This is all from ‘Izzatullah (Allah’s (AJ) Might and Magnificence).

Heavenly Soldiers Praise Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ

So when they teach you, shut your faculties. What you want to hear from this world? You’re not going to get information from Drudge Report. Some information you get, but not good one because we all know it, right? So, you want to close your ears. You sit and you begin to listen to salawat (praises upon Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) and nasheed (song of praise). You say, ‘I’m at Rauza e Sharif (holy burial chamber) and the angels are reciting for the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ .’ We said the drums of war are not somebody beating up their boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, but they’re praising Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. They’re asking for ‘Izzatullah to begin to appear.

When the entire heavens are praising and making this salawat and you begin to see all the Earth filled with Mawlid un Nabi ﷺ (celebration of the birthday of Prophet ﷺ), these are battalions being formed. These are the heavenly “Junodu min asSamawati wal ard.”

﴾هُوَ الَّذِي أَنزَلَ السَّكِينَةَ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لِيَزْدَادُوا إِيمَانًا مَّعَ إِيمَانِهِمْ ۗ وَلِلَّـهِ جُنُودُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ وَكَانَ اللَّـهُ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا ﴿٤

48:4 – “Huwa alladhee anzalas sakeenata fee quloobi almumineena liyazdadoo Imanan ma’a Imanihim, wa lillahi junodu asSamawati wal ardi, wa kana Allahu ‘Aleeman Hakeema.” (Surat Al-Fath)

“It is He who sent down tranquillity into the hearts of the believers, that they would increase faith in their [present level of] faith. And to Allah belong the Forces/soldiers of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is All Knowing and Wise.” (The Victory, 48:4)

Ahlul Basirah Witness Knowledges Within Their Hearts

These are Jayshihi Mansur (His Army is Victorious) wa Jayshi Muhammadiyah (Muhammadan Army) that are all gathering for these salawats and these praising. Why? Because behind them are malaika (angels), budala, nujaba, nuqaba, awtad wal akhyar all in those associations. They don’t gather without those salawats. So, as a result, when you see the Mawlids (celebration of the birthday of Prophet ﷺ) and the nasheeds on this Earth, already Allah’s (AJ) ‘Izzat and Might is now about to appear. So, it means that these realities is opening the heart of people. When they begin to open and become Ahlul Basirah and these knowledges that are being opened to them, Allah (AJ) begin to give them a khashf and a vision within their heart that, that knowledge became a truth for them. They witnessed it in the way Allah (AJ) wanted them to witness it, right?

So, ‘Ilm ul Yaqeen (Knowledge of Certainty) come to a pharmacist differently than to an economist, but it’s the same. It’ll be the same knowledge but it come to you in your training and in your understanding. The number of it, the frequency of it, the chemical of it, the medicine of it – whatever it is that Allah (AJ) gave each person a specialty and their understanding, their ‘Ilm ul Yaqeen and Ayn ul Yaqeen (Vision of Certainty) and the Haqq ul Yaqeen (Certainty of Truth) that they produce is completely different; same knowledge because for everyone from their point of reference.

Bring Out the Code Allah (AJ) Burned Onto Your Soul

When they hear these realities they say, ‘Ah subhanAllah’ like this knowledge of water. For a chemist, it may be a completely different understanding from an economist and from a computer technician. But from whatever Allah (AJ) dressed people, when they begin to receive these haqqaiqs, then becomes a haq (truth) for them because they witness that teaching in their heart. As soon as Allah (AJ) wants them to witness it, it becomes burnt into their soul and they can reference it anytime they need. It’s not something through their head that they memorized. Allah (AJ) has, “Allamal Qur’an. Khalaqal Insaan.” He has already burnt the code into the soul. So, it’s a matter of you bringing out that code and that reality.

﴾الرَّحْمَـٰنُ ﴿١﴾ عَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ ﴿٢﴾ خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ ﴿٣﴾ عَلَّمَهُ الْبَيَانَ ﴿٤

55:1-4 – “Ar Rahmaan (1) ‘Allamal Qur’an (2) Khalaqal Insaan (3) ‘Alama hul Bayan (4).” (Surat Ar-Rahman)

“The Most Merciful. (1) It is He Who has taught the Qur’an. (2) He has created Mankind. (3) He has taught him distinct (eloquence) speech (4).” (The Beneficent, 55:1-4)

Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is the Lantern of Divine Light

So, when Allah (AJ) swears by that reality, He’s making these servants Muhammadiyoon because all this ‘uloom, we said before La ilaha illallah is here [outside of glass], for us just to understand. Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ is here [the glass]. This is the misbah (lantern) that Allah (AJ) describes in Surat An-Nur, that ‘The light is in a lantern.’

﴾اللَّـهُ نُورُ‌ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْ‌ضِ ۚ مَثَلُ نُورِ‌هِ كَمِشْكَاةٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاحٌ ۖ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَةٍ ۖ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّ‌يٌّ … يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌ‌ ۚ نُّورٌ‌ عَلَىٰ نُورٍ‌ ۗ… ﴿٣٥

24:35 – “Allahu noorus samawati wal ardi. mathalu noorehi kamishkatin feeha misbahun, almisbahu fee zujajatin, azzujajatu kaannaha kawkabun durriyyun … yakadu zaytuha yudeeo wa law lam tamsashu naarun. noorun ‘ala noorin…” (Surat An-Nur)

“Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The Parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a Lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass: the glass as it were a brilliant star: …though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light!…” (The Light, 24:35)

Allah (AJ) Can Only Be Known Through Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ

So, everything is in this lantern, if anyone thinks they can have a relationship with Allah (AJ) alone, then they’re crazy because they think they’re out here. They left the lantern and they came into this space and they’re dealing directly with Allah (AJ) so it becomes, ‘La ilaha illallah, you,’ – can’t be. La ilaha illallah is not even for us to understand because it expresses itself. There is nothing but Allah (AJ) and Allah (AJ) is a hidden treasure. The only that you can know is the ocean of Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ because it has to be in the kalimah (testimony).

قَال رَسُولَ اللَّه ﷺ، قَالْ اللَّه عَزَ وَجَلْ: ” كُنْت كَنْزاً مخفيا فَأَحْبَبْت أَنْ أُعْرَفَ؛ فَخَلَقْت خَلْقاً فَعَرَّفْتهمْ بِي فَعَرَفُونِي.” [حَدِيثْ اَلْقُدْسِي – بِحَارْ اَلْأنْوَارْ، اَلْعَلَامَةْ اَلْمَجْلِسِيْ، جُزْء ٨٤، صَفْحَة ١٩٩]

Qala Rasulallahi ﷺ, Qala Allah (AJ): “Kuntu kanzan makhfiyya, fa ahbabtu an a’rafa, fa khalaqtu khalqan, fa ‘arraftahum bi fa ‘arafonee.” [Hadith al Qudsi – Behar al Anwar, Al ‘Alama al Majlisi, Juz’ 84, Safha 199]

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, that Allah (AJ) said: “I was a hidden Treasure then I desired to be known, so I created a creation to which I made Myself known; then they knew Me.” [Holy Hadith – Bihar al Anwar, by Al ‘Alama al Majlisi, Volume 84, Page 199]

Prophet’s ﷺ Light Was Created Before Everything Else

The kalimah is the complete of all understandings. It has to be in an ocean of tawheed (oneness). It can’t be outside of it. So, the tawheed is ‘Izzatullah, powers the creation. Everything is in Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ. So, the highest ‘uloom, the highest knowledges that all these realities are coming from is the reality of Prophet ﷺ. That’s why Hadith al-Jabir, ‘What was the first thing ya Sayyidi ya Rasulul Kareem (The Most Generous Messenger), that was created?’ That he ﷺ taught his Ahlul Bayt, says, ‘The light of your Prophet ﷺ. I was created before Adam (as) was created. Before Adam (as) of the clay, my nur (light) was an ancient light. I was a Rasul (messenger) before this form of Adam (as) came. I’m an ancient light.’

قَالَ رَسُولَ اللَّه ﷺ َ: “كُنْتُ نَبِيًّا وَآدَمُ بَيْنَ الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ.”

Qala Rasulullahi ﷺ:“Kuntu Nabiyan wa Adama baynal Maa e wat Teen.”

The Messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: “I was a Prophet and Adam was between water and clay.”

قَالَ رَسُولَ اللَّه ﷺ: “أَوَّلُ مَا خَلَقَ اللهُ نُوْرِ نَبِيِّكَ يَا جَابِرْ.”

Qala Rasulullah ﷺ:“Awwalu ma khalaqAllahu nuri Nabyika, Ya Jabir.”

Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: “The first thing that Allah created was your prophet’s light (referring to himself (pbuh)) O Jabir.”

Everything Has Been Created From the Light of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

So, it means that whenever Allah (AJ) want to make the Throne of the Divine Presence, where is it being made? Here [Shaykh pointing to outside of a glass] or in here? [Shaykh pointing to within glass]. In here because there’s nothing out here. There’s nothing. Allah (AJ) can create a throne that can carry Allah (AJ)? Well, then tomorrow, the throne will fight with Allah (AJ), say, ‘Well I carry You. I’ll be on top.’ Nothing can contain Allah (AJ)! Anything created is in this ocean of creation. The paradise is created from where? Nurul Muhammad ﷺ (Light of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ)! Angels are created from where? Nurul Muhammad ﷺ! Heavens are created from where? Nurul Muhammad ﷺ! All the created universes are created from where? Nurul Muhammad ﷺ! That’s it.

All the huroof (Arabic letters) is what? There’s 28 huroof but really 29 because laam-alif. 29 is the reflection of 92 which is ‘Meem Ha, Meem Daal’ which is ‘Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ.’ All the huroof is created from there. It means all knowledge is from this reality of Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ. That’s it. You can’t think anything out here. Take your mind out of that.

We Are All Within the Ocean of Creation, Not Outside of It

If you place yourself outside of the glass, you are mushrik. You have made a partner with Allah (AJ) and you and Allah (AJ) are partners. Astaghfirullah, it can’t be. We have to be in an ocean of creation and Allah (AJ) is the Creator. That’s why Sayyidina Jibreel (as) “Sidratel Muntaha. Wa qaaba qawsayni aw adna” Sayyidina Jibreel (as) stopped at the glass, ‘My place is not on this side. I don’t even have an existence. I can’t even take myself into a non-existent place’ [Sayyidina Jibreel (as)] stopped.

﴾عِندَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنتَهَىٰ ﴿١٤

53:14 – “Inda sidratel Muntaha.” (Surat An-Najm)

“At the Lote Tree of the Utmost Boundary.” (The Star, 53:14)

﴾فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَىٰ ﴿٩

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)

Prophet ﷺ is the Veil That Separates Allah (AJ) and Creation

But because Prophet ﷺ is that glass, he is the pardeh (veil) that separates between the vision of Allah (AJ) because there’s no oneness with Allah (AJ) and creation. He ﷺ asked Sayyidina Jibreel (as), ‘Where you get your Wahy (Revelation) from?’ Said, ‘I give you permission this time, when you go to get your Wahy.’ He [Sayyidina Jibreel (as)] says, ‘I go. When I get to Wahy, there’s a bell that comes and I go to the pardeh. A hand from the pardeh comes out for what I’m supposed to give to you. I take that and bring it down to you.’ He ﷺ says, ‘I give you permission this time to go to the pardeh and ask for who’s behind that hand.’ He [Sayyidina Jibreel (as)] went when the next Wahy was coming, he went to the pardeh – is a curtain, a veil, a hijab which is the…and what Allah (AJ) describes in Surat Ar-Rahman, the sweet and salt water, ‘There’s an unseen barrier between sweet and salt.’

﴾مَرَجَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ يَلْتَقِيَانِ ﴿١٩﴾ بَيْنَهُمَا بَرْزَخٌ لَّا يَبْغِيَانِ ﴿٢٠﴾ فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ ﴿٢١

55:19-21 – “Maraja al bahrayni yaltaqiyan. (19) Bayna huma barzakhun la yabghiyan. (20) Fabi ayyi alayi Rabbikuma tukadhdhiban. (21)” (Surat Ar-Rahman)

“He has made the two seas to flow freely (so that) they meet together. (19) Between them is a barrier which they cannot pass. (20) So which of the favors of your Lord will you deny? (21)” (The Beneficient, 55:19-21)

A Special Creation Lives on the Border of the Sweet and Salty Oceans

So anyone who doesn’t understand how that’s possible, Allah (AJ) gave that sign upon the ocean where the Atlantic and the Pacific come together, they don’t mix. There’s no Wahdatul…

Audience : Wujud.

…Wujud – oneness. Right? It stays apart. The salt is salt and the sweet is sweet. This is an ishrat (sign) for Ahlul Ma’rifah (people of gnosticism). Ŧhose whom live on the salt water and there’s whom live on the sweet water and they don’t switch, but…

Audience : “Maraja al bahrayn.”

“Maraja al bahrayn,” there’s a point in which a special creation only lives on that border. They’re not from dunya (material world) and they’re not looking for paradise. They have only an existence on that reality. That they live in that ocean of Hu where La ilaha illallah connects with Hu and hits to the meem of Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ which is Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ. All of La ilaha illallah, the hey touches to here. So, you can never be on this side [outside of glass].

Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ Revealed Himself to Sayyidina Jibreel (as) Behind The Veil

When we understood that all these knowledges when Allah (AJ) is giving, all the reality He’s giving to Prophet ﷺ, it’s from Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ (AJ). When he [Sayyidina Jibreel (as)] went to the pardeh (veil), he saw the hand and asked for a permission, ‘I’ve been given permission to see behind the hand’ and it was Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Said, ‘Ajeeb (strange), from Muhammad ﷺ to Muhammad ﷺ.’ Because he ﷺ wanted to show adab (manners), he wanted to show on Earth, the adab (manner) and the discipline of waiting for what Allah (AJ) wants and at that time, revealing it to the people at the time in which Allah (AJ) wanted it to be revealed.

Nisf e Sha’ban (Mid Shaban) and all these reality is what? All of it was given. All of these realities were given to Prophet ﷺ “Allamal Qur’an.” Allah (AJ) said, ‘I already taught you the Qur’an.’ Qur’an is a reference between Allah’s (AJ) dialogue and Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Right? “Wa Allamal Qur’an.” That’s why Laylatul Nisf e Sha’ban (The Night of Mid Shaban). It’s a mighty blessed night because the night in which Allah (AJ) gave all of its reality. Then the adab was: wait, wait, wait, wait for the people. Wait for the isharat (sign) and reveal. Wait for isharat and reveal.

Prophet ﷺ Will Intercede For All of Creation

The immensity, the immensity of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, it’s not something that can be understood. So then “Ya–Seen. Wal Qur’anal Hakeem.” Every knowledge and reality is in this ocean of Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ “…kalim al mursaleen” – that every, all of these are a word from this honored messenger. “‘Ala siratil mustaqeem.”

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

36:1-4 – “Ya-seen.(1) Wal Qur’anal Hakeem. (2) Innaka laminal mursaleen. (3) ‘Ala siratim mustaqeem. (4) (Surat YaSeen)

“Ya-seen.(1) By the Qur’an, full of Wisdom. (2) Indeed you, [O Muhammad], are from among the messengers. (3) On a straight path. (4) (YaSeen, 36:1-4)

Imagine those who have this immense love and this immense dress, they are now dressed with Siratal Mustaqim (the Straight Path). Prophet ﷺ is the Siratal Mustaqim. He’s the one whom is going to intercede for all of creation to Allah (AJ). That’s why his gift is the highest gift. It’s the gift of intercession.

He’s the one whom has to intercede. He’s the only one who can take all this creation to this pardeh and represent them to La ilaha illallah. Only the intercessor can represent and present you to the reality of La ilaha illallah. So, Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is Siratal Mustaqim. So, it means that this dress of Suratal YaSeen ﷺ in this month is that Prophet ﷺ and Allah (AJ) dress the students to become inheritors of the reality of Siratal Mustaqim. As a result, what do the…these again, we said these are the ‘uloom of khawas (elite), not normal people.

Hellfire Burns Our Form of Bad Character, Not Our Soul

But normal people, their understanding of Siratal Mustaqim (the Straight Path) is what? A knife, a blade, and they describe this blade is so sharp that as soon as you start to walk on it, you cut right in half and go straight through the blade. But not the one whom is the blade, right? So, then those whom inherit from this character, this now goes into the understanding of energy. Why holy people agitate people? Because they’re a knife. They’re a blade inheriting from the reality of Siratal Mustaqim, right? They talk and they can slice somebody in half; not their soul because the soul is receiving an ecstasy from their talk but the outer form.

Because what does the jahannam (hellfire) burn? It doesn’t burn your soul. The soul is pure from the oceans of Allah (AJ). So, the concept of walking Siratal Mustaqim and heading towards jahannam. Jahannam burns only the possession and combustible product. So, the bad character takes on like a form. All the desires take on a form. All of that is burned by the fire.

Don’t Go From Fire To Fire, But Be The Fire

So, the moth, that’s why awliyaullah (saints), ‘Be like the moth, that go to the flame.’ You, have you seen the moth, these poor creatures? They actually go to the fire and they start to burn. They’re so attracted to the flame, they forgot that they’re going to burn. So, awliya (saints) say, ‘Why you don’t be like that?’ As soon as your testing becomes tough, as soon as your life becomes hard, ‘No, no, no, this is not for me.’ What, it’s not for you? You want to burn in jahannam (hellfire)? You want that fire? Or Allah’s (AJ) ni’mat and barakah and blessings for the believer is: do your burning in dunya (material world). Let the possessions burn. Let the bad character burn away. Let all these bad things go so that these desires go and all that’s left…

What was the end of Abida Parveen’s song? ‘Why are you going from fire to fire? No, be the fire.’

سیکھ ذہین کے دل سے جلنا، کہے کو ہر شمع پر جلنا
اپنی آگ میں خود جل جائے، تو ایسا پروانہ بن جا

“Seekh Zaheen ke dil se jalna, kaahe ko har shamma par jalna…… Apni aag mein khud jal jaye, tu aisa parwana ban ja”

“Listen up O Wise Ones and take heed…this burning from the heart – wherefore do you burn yourself out on each candle you encounter?
Become engulfed and consumed in the Flames of your own Fire, become just such a moth! Become just such a moth.”

It means bring that ishq (love) within yourself and you warm yourself. It won’t be sadness anymore. It won’t be difficulties and horrific. People are emailing, ‘I just want to kill myself.’ What you’re talking about, crazy talk like that? From your dunya, you want to kill yourself because your dunya’s bad? People have bothered you? You didn’t understand then the path. People are bothering you is because you represent the Siratal Mustaqim (the Straight Path). If people loving you and praising you on dunya, you did something wrong, right? If dunya people think you’re like fantastic, you’ve got to be the person we want to be with, you did something wrong. You’re not a Siratal Mustaqim, right? Because they’re attracted to you.

We Are Vehicles For Jinns and Bad Energies

But when they understand, they say, ‘Oh, hell and religion, this scary for us.’ Then the ‘Keep the straight and narrow’ because it’s a sword. So, when Prophet ﷺ is giving somebody to inherit from lights and blessings, the light understanding is that you’re being dressed by lights. As a result of these lights, they come against all the badness within people. That people are vehicles and containers for badness and they just don’t understand. You can explain a thousand times and they still yell and scream and get all sorts of crazy character because they don’t understand who you are. That when you’re a light and you carry an immense amount of light within you and people by their nature…

Let’s say a person goes to the mall. You think you went home back regular? No, you picked up a lot of passengers with you. All the jinn (unseen beings), all the ifrit (powerful demon), everything attached itself to you. You deal with patients. All day long, their sickness is jumping onto you because you’re like a light bulb sitting there. Have you ever seen a light bulb on a dark summer night? All the mosquitoes come, the moth come, the difficulty.

Devils Dislike Those Dressed By Lights and Love

So, when you’re being dressed by lights in these associations or at home on the internet – wherever people are – if they don’t understand the system, then they just emailing, ‘I want to kill myself. Nobody likes me. Nobody wants to talk to me. My family…’ Oh definitely family don’t like you. How could they like you unless they’re all sitting in the same room doing zikr (Divine remembrance)? But if they’re not, what’s going to happen? They’re going to go out. They’re going to get all sorts of shayateen (devils) on them and every time they see you – not the person and the soul – the shaitans (satans) on them, ‘Rawr,’ [growl sound effect] like the vampire movies.

That’s why we said there’s an isharat in everything. Take out the not polite scenes and nasty things, that’s not what we’re talking about. But if you watch a vampire movie, your pure heart should show you what Allah’s (AJ) teaching with you. He says that, ‘The demons, they don’t like sunshine.’ The shams and the sun of somebody’s heart with the ishq and the love of Allah (AJ) and the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, they’re like bright stars on a dark night.

Presence of Pious People Burns Devils

They’re exactly like the vampire movie. Everybody has their vampires and their demons. As soon as you enter in the room, ‘Rawr, you’re burning us. You’re burning us.’ You’ve seen the movies, they scream. They can do every evilness, but that light hits them, they’re burning and they’re running. They’re getting angry and that’s the best understanding to understand what pious people do to people. They burn them just by their presence. If they look at them, they’ll burn them significantly more.

That’s why you see in the movies, ‘What you looking at? Put your eyes down!’ Because that’s a demon talk like that. The demon within that person doesn’t want the eyes. So, many times, they try to take the eyes of pious people out, God forbid. Why? Because they have an immense power in their eye. There’s an immense power in your reality. So, your mere presence is glowing light so everybody going to be angry with you. That is the moth to the flame.

There Are Different Levels of Purity That Can Be Reached

This is not a philosophy class. You should have known that, that it’s real. That the lights that are being put upon your soul are immense lights from the immensity of Allah’s (AJ) dressing and love for Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. As a result, everywhere you go, people get angered by your presence. People don’t…even people who think they’re purified, they are more purified than the other people and they aggravate those people because there’s even levels. They may be, you know, so pure from the zikrs, they still have demons inside them. There may be someone who’s much more purified and they become aggravated by them and that is the reality.

Back to Siratal Mustaqim (the Straight Path), if people don’t like to hear about energy, that is the Siratal Mustaqim. As soon as they speak, their tongue, like a blade, it hits people and cuts their demons. The demon wants to turn the TV off, ‘I don’t want to watch this. I don’t want to hear this.’ Why you don’t want to hear it? Because they want to live in their ignorance. They don’t want their soul and their body, ‘Don’t hear him and follow his way. He’s burning us. When he looks at us. he’s burning us. When he speaks, he’s cutting us.’ That’s the reality of Siratal Mustaqim.

Siratal Mustaqim Cuts Badness To Bring Out Love

That’s the reality and the ni’mat (blessing) of Allah (AJ) that if they cut enough, cut enough, cut enough and bring enough light into the person, then what happens? Their badness begins to go and the ishq and the love for Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and that’s what Surat Az-Zalzalah. That, ‘Have you seen what something hidden inside you comes out’ only by the shaking and the quaking. So, that’s why Allah (AJ), in last day, is going to fill the Earth with zalzalah (earthquake), right? Shake and bake them all. If there’s anything good in them, let’s see if it comes out.

﴾إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ الْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا ﴿١﴾ وَأَخْرَجَتِ الْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا ﴿٢

99:1-2 – “Izaa zul zilatil ardu zil zaalaha (1) Wa akh rajatil ardu athqaalaha (2)” (Surat Az-Zalzalah)

“When the earth is shaken with her (final) earthquake. (1) And the earth discharges its burdens (from within) (2)” (The Earthquake, 99:1-2)

Endure Agitations and Testing on Your Spiritual Path

But the majlis (association) of awliyaullah (saints) and those whom inherit from them, they’re doing it on a spiritual means. That they teach, they talk and their talk are like a sword that cut through all the fat, all the rubbish, all the fakeness and goes straight into their heart. If they cut enough, cut enough, cut enough with the teaching, then what comes out is a love and ishq of Prophet ﷺ. We pray that Allah (AJ) dress us with an understanding.

Those whom emailing they can’t live anymore and the dramatic talk of all these things, you have to either get psychological help and medicine because if something is wrong with the mental faculty, this is not a mental hospital so we can’t help anybody who’s missing anything from medical advice or medicine. But as far as if it’s spiritual, then you have to understand this is the testing. That people are just going to be aggravated by the presence. People are not going to understand that type of light. As a result, they begin to talk bad, talk negative. If you were looking for a path in which people would praise you, this is not the one.
