Understand Your Power of Manifestation
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)
Safar Inspires Us to Run to the Cave of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ
Alhamdulillah, in the blessed month of Safar and from the knowledge of awliyaullah (saints), on this Shamsul ‘Arifeen (Sun of Knowers) and the way towards the heart and the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.
That Safar is the month of the cave and that Allah (AJ) inspired within our hearts that, ‘Leave that which shaitan (satan) worships and what he desires of his kingdom and run towards the kingdom of Allah (AJ) and Divinely Presence, the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.’
﴾وَإِذِ اعْتَزَلْتُمُوهُمْ وَمَا يَعْبُدُونَ إِلَّا اللَّـهَ فَأْوُوا إِلَى الْكَهْفِ يَنشُرْ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّن رَّحْمَتِهِ وَيُهَيِّئْ لَكُم مِّنْ أَمْرِكُم مِّرْفَقًا ﴿١٦
18:16 – “Wa idhi’ tazaltumo hum wa ma ya’budoona illAllaha fawoo ilal kahfi yanshur lakum rabbukum mir rahmatihi wa yuhayyi lakum min amrikum mirfaqa.” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“When ye turn away from them and the things they worship other than Allah, betake yourselves to the Cave: Your Lord will shower His mercies on you and disposes of your affair towards comfort and ease.” (The Cave, 18:16)
Balance Your Reality With Knowledge and Wisdom
That in that heart is the oceans of al-hayat (Ever-Living) – the secret of eternity, and that to drink from its fountain and to be from that fountain, Allah (AJ) grant that ocean and the reality of eternity. That, alhamdulillah, wisdom and knowledge to be dressed in this holy month and every month subsequent to that is a reality of what’s now coming towards that Divinely dress and the Divinely presence.
It’s that Allah (AJ) says ‘This way is a way of oceans of eternity.’ Allah (AJ) grants Divinely knowledges and those Divinely knowledges, they have to be dressed with hikmah and wisdom so that the servant is a balanced servant in their realities.
Contemplate the Relationship Between Sayyidina Khidr (as) and Nabi Musa (as)
Then we described the relationship between Sayyidina Khidr (as) and Sayyidina Musa (as) and the depth of that in which to tafakkur and contemplate every day of this month in the reality in which Allah (AJ), when He want to guide a servant into the servants whom they attained a rahmah (mercy), it means they have a strong connection to the presence of “Rahmatal lil’alameen.” (Mercy to the Worlds)
﴾فَوَجَدَا عَبْدًا مِّنْ عِبَادِنَا آتَيْنَاهُ رَحْمَةً مِّنْ عِندِنَا وَعَلَّمْنَاهُ مِن لَّدُنَّا عِلْمًا ﴿٦٥
18:65 – “Fawajada ‘abdan min ‘ibadinaa ataynahu rahmatan min ‘indina wa ‘allamnahu mil ladunna ‘ilma.” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“So they found one of Our servant from among Our servants, on whom We had bestowed Mercy from Ourselves and whom We had taught [unseen/heavenly] knowledge from Our own Presence…” (The Cave, 18:65)
Surah Al-Kahf Teaches Manners of How to Accompnay Heavenly Servants
The mercy of Allah (AJ) is the presence and the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. That these servants whom attained that presence, then as a result of that presence, Allah (AJ) taught them knowledges, Divinely knowledges, the knowledges that come through their soul and their heart and their being. The importance of that reality, to be dressed from that reality and then how to accompany – how to accompany the path and how to accompany that way.
Surat al-Kahf is the adab (manner) and the surah (chapter) of the adab of how to accompany heavenly servants. That they don’t have the same mannerisms. That if we were to take an external scholar or somebody from the masjid, and say, ‘Well, okay teach me Qur’an’ and ‘Teach me this’ or ‘Teach me that,’ it’s a different adab (manner). It’s a different understanding. It’s a different way in which to negate oneself and that’s less than 1% will be guided towards that reality.
99% of Us Think Going for Jum’ah Prayer is Enough
The 99% are of the external. They go to the masjid, they go for Jum’ah (Friday prayer) and they think that those are the manners of Islam. The depth of the reality of the manners of the heavenly kingdom and the kingdom of Divinely knowledges then are extremely different, almost 360 degrees indifference on how the character is; how to have the character of humbleness, how to have the character of patience, how to be patient through the conveyance of knowledges.
When we say ‘Ya Wahhab. Ya Wahhab. Ya Wahhab. Ya musabbibal asbab, ya mufattihul abwab, ya muqallibul qulubi wal absar. Ya Dalilal mutahayyirin. ya Ghiyathal mustaghithin.’
يَا وَهَّابُ يَا وَهَّابُ يَا وَهَّابُ، يَا مُسَبِّبَ الأَسْبَابِ، يَا مُفَتِّحُ الأَبْوَابِ، يَا مُقَلِّبُ الْقُلُوْبِ وَالأَبْصَارِ.
يَا دَلِيْلَ الْمُتَحَيِّرِيْنَ يَا غِيَاثَ الْمُسْتَغِيْثِيْنَ، يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّوْمُ، يَا ذَا الْجَلاَلِ وَالإِكْرَامِ. وَاُفَوِّضُ أَمْرِيْ اِلَى اللهِ. اِنَّ اللهَ بَصِيْرٌ بِالْعِبَادِ.
“Ya Wahhab. Ya Wahhab. Ya Wahhab. Ya musabbibal asbab, ya mufattihul abwab, ya muqallibul qulubi wal absar. Ya Dalilal mutahayyirin, ya Ghiyathal mustaghithin, ya Hayyu ya Qayyum, ya dhalJalali wal Ikram. Wa ufawwidu amri illAllah, innAllaha basirun bil ‘ibad.
“O Bestower! O Bestower! O Bestower! O Originator of causes! O Opener of doors! O Tuner (Changer) of hearts and eyes! O Guide of the perplexed! O Succour for those who seek Your aid! O Living! O Self-Subsisting One! O (You who are) possessed of Majesty and Bounty! I entrust my affair unto Allah. Truly, Allah is aware of His servants.”
Dive Into the Power of Positive Manifestation
“Ya Dalilal mutahayyirin” is ‘The Guide of the Bewildered.’ So, that’s a reminder; a reminder that the immensity of that du’a (supplication) that Mawlana Shaykh (Q) would inspire that keep making that du’a because the du’a that you make and this is the reality that they’re opening for the understanding of manifestation. So, if they teach that you can manifest every type of negativity and every type of horrific thing, then imagine the power of positive manifestation.
That when you say, ‘Ya Wahhab. Ya Wahhab. Ya Wahhab’ and you make the du’as that they ask you to make – you make any du’a – what type of manifestation from the oceans of energy when it says, ‘The One whom bestows, the One whom gives, the One whom gives.’ That these du’as, that they inspire and the app has the du’as from the Sultanul Awliyas (Kings of Saints) of the heavenly kingdom of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.
Ask From Ya Wahhab, The One Whom Bestows
‘Ya Wahhab’ is ‘The One whom bestows.’ That when you keep asking, ‘Ya Wahhab, Ya Wahhab, Ya Wahhab’ from the ocean of reality in which bestows an opening for that servant begins to manifest from the name that you’re asking from Allah (AJ) ‘The One whom opens.’ “Ya Wahhab – the One whom gives and bestows.” It means then that attribute begins to…for the only way to understand it, we have to only talk by analogy because people won’t understand.
That when the servant is continuously making that du’a (supplication) an emergence of like a door for them, [it] begins to open and the attribute takes an existence. That attribute of bestowing and bestowing and bestowing becomes ever-present with that servant. That, ‘The One whom gives’ and then ‘The One whom who causes’ and has an effects of cause in my life.
Allah (AJ) Provides Openings for Your Choices
‘The One whom opens the door,’ that means that in my life that every situation that begins to have a manifestation. For every cause, Allah (AJ) is moving me to make a choice. Do I make an incorrect choice or I make the better choice? Then Allah (AJ) provides “Mufattihul abwab” – provides an opening and a door for that choice.
يَا وَهَّابُ، يَا مُسَبِّبَ الأَسْبَابِ، يَا مُفَتِّحُ الأَبْوَابِ،.
“Ya Wahhab. Ya musabbibal asbab, ya mufattihul abwab…”
“O Bestower! O Originator of causes! O Opener of doors!…”
It means these du’as (supplications) that awliyaullah (saints) are inspiring with us to make, the du’as that Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ gave to the nation above all, the du’as that Allah (AJ) has asked for all of creation to make, they have a manifestation. The du’a that that servant is making begins to manifest in front of them. As a result, that du’a is continuously manifesting and dressing upon that servant.
Ask That Your Heart Not Shift From Your Path
That, ‘The One whom…don’t change my heart, don’t change my eyes,’ it means that in this path of spirituality that keep bestowing upon me. Keep bestowing upon me and dress me from these lights. Dress me from these blessings and that what, in this way, don’t let my heart to shift from my path. Don’t let any difficulty to come to me.
Give me a firmness within my heart. Don’t change my eyes. Don’t change the vision of my direction. Don’t change the reality of and the compass of my heart so that the qibla would be in a different direction – that the heart would then be attracted to something incorrect from dunya (material world).
يَا مُقَلِّبُ الْقُلُوْبِ وَالأَبْصَارِ
”…Ya muqallibul qulubi wal absar…”
“O Tuner (Changer) of hearts and eyes!…”
Your Du’a Manifests an Energy That Directs Your Heart
So, it means then the secret of this manifestation of du’as (supplications) is that when we begin to make these du’as and continuously make these to du’as, they manifest a reality that’s present with us, that keeps bestowing upon us, keep dressing us. Because you asked it then that that energy, from that du’a, it keeps directing towards your heart to keep the compass of your heart correct.
“Muqallibul qulubi wal absar,” that when you’re asking…I don’t know how to put it in my tongue because it doesn’t make sense to try to talk about it, but the reality that Allah (AJ) gave to us of manifestation is that du’a comes alive!
When You Ask for Something, You Bring It Into Existence
Its energy from Allah (AJ) begin to dress the servant’s heart that, ‘Stay firm in the way of Allah (AJ).’ You asked for it. You have now brought it into existence. That du’a began to direct the vision of the servant so that their internal eye and their internal heart is always directed towards Allah (AJ) and the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.
This becomes our companion in life. This becomes the…a reality of our existence and the reality of guidance. Not only the shaykhs are guiding, not only Allah (AJ) guiding – supreme, the guidance of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ from “Atiullah wa atiur Rasul wa Ulil amre minkum.”
﴾أَطِيعُواللَّه وَأَطِيعُوٱلرَّسُولَ وَأُوْلِي الْأَمْرِ مِنْكُمْ… ﴿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)
Practice Nazar Bar Qadam and Gaze Upon Your Path
Then the Ulul amr (saints) that are guiding, but all the du’as they ask of us to recite and all of the awrads (daily practices) and etiquettes that they’re giving to us are manifesting for us. If we could see, it would be like a fountain in front of us. Then that du’a is continuously providing for us. That, ‘Dress the heart, dress the heart, dress my vision, keep my heart and my vision to be firm.’
That’s why we said ‘Nazar bar qadam’ (gaze upon the path). That, in our lives, the nazar (gaze) and the path are related. The nazar has to do with what’s in my heart. What’s in my heart is guiding my path and what’s in my heart will control my eyes. So, that which my eyes are trying to attain in life, it will affect my heart. So, then all these du’as, they are strong manifestations of protection. They begin to manifest for us as a continuous guidance and support upon our path.
Seek to Reach a Bewildered State
That’s the power that Allah (AJ) has given to us. That these salawats (praises upon Prophet Muhammad ﷺ), these zikrs (Divine remembrances), ayatul kareem (the generous verse of Holy Qur’an) that we’re reciting, all of them begin to manifest and this manifestation is what continuously dressing us, continuously blessing us. That in our path and the path that becomes more and more difficult, that we’re asking from Allah (AJ) that in this path of knowledge to take me towards the bewildered state.
That at every moment, increase me in a level of knowledge in which I enter the oceans of bewilderment. That not to have just the same thing, but in my tafakkur (contemplation) and in my contemplation for Allah (AJ) to expand the horizons, expand the understanding so that I can be bewildered by the oceans of Allah’s (AJ) infinite expanse that has no limit, has no understanding of limit upon it.
Surah Al-Kahf Shows Us Etiquettes for Pursuing Divinely Knowledges
By the power of those du’as (supplications), it’s granting the servant to be firm. That, ‘Ya Rabbi, that increase me in that level of knowledge. Grant me a firmness in which to stay present and stay with it.’ Because many may come across these knowledges, hear these teachings, hear something from this reality and run and run because it’s not something they understand. It’s not something that’s digestible in their mind because it’s not something that the mind can digest. It’s only knowledges that the qalb and the heart can digest.
The servant then needs the firmness in their path that, ‘Ya Rabbi, grant me a firmness. That as I enter into this ocean of unknown on this path towards Your Divine realities, grant me my firmness on my path and that my feet to be firm in that way to reach to those realities.’ That’s why Surat al-Kahf is the etiquette, is the etiquette for those whom wish to pursue Divinely knowledges. That’s why Sayyidina Khidr (as) laid down the example from Allah (AJ). That, ‘Don’t ask me questions on subjects that your knowledge may not be complete.’
﴾قَالَ إِنَّكَ لَن تَسْتَطِيعَ مَعِيَ صَبْرًا ﴿٦٧﴾ وَكَيْفَ تَصْبِرُ عَلَىٰ مَا لَمْ تُحِطْ بِهِ خُبْرًا ﴿٦٨
18:67-68 – “Qala innaka lan tastatee’a ma’iya sabra. (67) Wa kayfa tasbiru ‘ala ma lam tuhit bihi khubra. (68)” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“(The Other) said, Verily you will not be able to have patience with me! (67) And how can you have patience for what you do not encompass in knowledge? (68)” (The Cave, 18:67-68)
Realities Become Deeper When You Contemplate
It means that don’t let the mind to think that it has a question on a reality and that it doesn’t understand it, ‘This doesn’t sound right. This doesn’t sound right.’ This is a reality that’s based on the heart and the qalb. That’s the reminder for myself that every time the knowledges become deeper, every time the realities become deeper…and those are in contemplation.
That when the shaykhs and the students whom been taught by that in the month that comes and every month they come in their contemplation, in their namaz (prayer) and in their zikrs and in their processes, the knowledges and the uloom become deeper and deeper. They have to have a firmness, a firmness within their heart that to have the patience for Allah (AJ) to expand its reality and grant them an understanding.
Allah (AJ) Makes Everything to Manifest By Your Reality
We pray that Allah (AJ) because of all the different things that have been coming out all the time and there are many different people coming in new for the first time, they click one day and they’re listening and say, ‘We never heard any of these examples of Sayyidina Musa (as) and Sayyidina Khidr (as). We haven’t heard these examples of manifestation, we haven’t…’
Nobody’s ever talked about that. I don’t think there’s anyone you click anywhere where they understood the reality of manifesting. Because this was from “Iqra. ‘Allam bil Qalam. ‘Allama hi ‘alam,” that Allah (AJ) will make everything to begin to manifest by your reality.
﴾اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ ﴿٣﴾ الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ ﴿٤﴾ عَلَّمَ الْإِنسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ ﴿٥
96:3-5 – “Iqra, wa rabbukal akram (3). Alladhee ‘allama bil Qalam (4). ‘Allamal insana ma lam ya’lam. (5)” (Surat Al-Alaq)
“Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous. (3) Who taught by the pen. (4) Taught man that which he knew not. (5)” (The Clot, 96:3-5)
Our Existence is Based on “Kun Faya Koon”
That every knowledge of this insan (human being) will begin to manifest. Allah (AJ) gave immense power in their hands, an immense reality within their finger and their thumb and that their ability to hold the qalam (pen). The power of that qalam opened upon this Earth the ability of all manifestation. So, anyone who says, ‘What are you talking about kun faya koon?’
Our existence is “kun faya koon.” Every building you see around us now is because of manifestation. Allah (AJ) didn’t build it. Allah (AJ) inspired you to build it and it wasn’t here. 200, 300, 500 hundred years ago, nothing was here.
﴾إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ ﴿٨٢
36:82 – “Innama AmruHu idha Arada shay an, an yaqola lahu kun faya koon.” (Surat YaSeen)
“His command is when He intends a thing, He says to it, “Be,” and it is!” (YaSeen, 36:82)
Prophet ﷺ Sends Praises Upon You Ten Times When You Praise Upon Him Once
So, as everything is manifesting, the most powerful manifestation are those that which manifest for Allah (AJ). That what power the servant has that when he reads Qur’an, when reads salawat un Nabi ﷺ, what happens in the process of making salawat upon Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ? That’s why the schools of adab, they teach you manners, right? Because one salawat upon the reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, Prophet ﷺ described that, ‘My soul will come to be present with you.’
Right there is now a manifestation. So, with durood e sharif (praising upon Prophet Muhammad ﷺ), Allah (AJ) is giving insan (mankind) that reality of Prophet’s ﷺ present to be present with them; not only present, but conveying onto them, dressing them with lights. Saying that, ‘I will be praising you ten salawats back, ten praisings back.’
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ – صلى الله عليه وسلم -: ” مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيَّ صَلَاةً وَاحِدَةً، صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ عَشْرَ صَلَوَاتٍ، وَحُطَّتْ عَنْهُ عَشْرُ خَطِيئَاتٍ، وَرُفِعَتْ لَهُ عَشْرُ دَرَجَاتٍ “
Qala Rasulullah (saws): “Man Salla `alaiya Salatan wahidatan, Sallallahu `alayhi `ashra Salawatin, wa Huttat `anhu `ashru khaTeatin, wa ruf`at lahu `ashru darajatin.”
Prophet Muhammad (saws) said: “Whoever sends blessings [Praises] upon me, God will shower His blessings upon him ten times, and will erase ten of his sins, and elevate [raise] his [spiritual] station ten times.” [Hadith recorded by Nasa’i]
We Don’t Understand Timelessness in the World of Light
Them, what does that mean from an ocean of light that has no time? There’s no one. There’s no two. There’s no three. That’s dunya (material world). In the world of light, what is ten? What’s the relevance to the number ten in a world of light when there’s no time? Time is had e dunya (limit of material world) where you have the Earth, the moon and the sun. If I tell you in heaven, ‘I’m going to send ten lights to you,’ what does that mean? It has an eternal reality and because we don’t understand it, all they want us to know is the reality of manifestation.
The one whom is praising and praising and praising and making du’a (supplication), many realities are manifesting in front of them. As a result of those manifestations, they dress the servant. They bless the servant. They give the guidance to the servant. So, the servant is not left as something empty that they left alone for shaitan to attack. That’s why the reality of guidance is that Allah (AJ), ‘Go sit with these people from the world of light so they can astonish you with what Allah (AJ) has given to insan.’
What Type of Energy are You Manifesting?
That the du’as (supplications), the recitations, the prayers – all of them, they have an immense manifestation, immense power for the servant. As a result, those whom are reciting and sincere, because sincere servants…people want to understand that, ‘What’s the difference between you and him?’ Because there are people who say, ‘There’s no difference between people,’ but we just gave the proof.
If the one whom all day long is drawing horrific creatures, making masks for movies and demonic things and the other one whom sitting and reading Qur’an and making salawat and doing durood e sharif – just what do you think they’re manifesting? What type of negativity one creature is manifesting and what type of heavenly realities another creature is manifesting?
Make Your Salawats With Sincerity
So, just by the understanding of that, we can understand that there are enormous differences in people. The one who reaches sincerity, every action that they do, Allah (AJ) grants it its reality. That they make salawat with sincerity. Those salawats are immensely powerful. That they continuously have the presence of the light of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ with them accompanying them.
So, when Allah (AJ) speaks eternally to us and say, “Shahidan, Mubashshiran, wa Nazeeran,” it’s a description of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ for those whom have ikhlas (sincerity).
﴾يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ شَاهِدًا وَمُبَشِّرًا وَنَذِيرًا ﴿٤٥
33:45 – “Ya ayyuhan Nabiyu inna arsalnaka Shahidan wa Mubashshiran wa Nazeera.” (Surat Al-Ahzab)
“O Prophet, indeed We have sent you as a Witness and a Bearer of Glad Tidings and a Warner.” (The Combined Forces, 33:45)
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is Continuously With Those Who Have Ikhlas
If they have an ikhlas and sincerity, “Shahidan” because the ruh and the soul of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is continuously with them so they are witness to the light and Prophet ﷺ is always accompanying and dressing them. “Mubashshiran,” we said many times, that because the light is there present, it’s “Mubashshiran” – dressing with beatific lights and beatific dresses. That’s a manifestation.
Now “Nazeeran” because of the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, because of their sincerity, continuously guiding them, ‘Don’t do that. This not what Allah (AJ) wants, do this. Don’t do that. Do this’ and inspires within their heart of goodness and refraining from badness. That as a result, that can’t be compared to normal people.
Rabi ul Awwal Brings the Reality of 27 and the Mawlid un Nabi ﷺ
One who reaches these levels of sincerity, what type of dress and light that Allah (AJ) grant to them? So, we pray in these holy months that opens and from this holy month of Safar, open up the reality now coming into the third lunar month which is the reality of 27. 27 is the kingdom of Allah (AJ). 27 is the gate of all realities. This is the surah (chapter) in which Allah (AJ) describes the kingdom of Sayyidina Sulaiman (as).
So, it means the month of Mawlid un Nabi ﷺ sharif is the month in which Allah (AJ) is opening the kingdom of all the heavens. The reality of the sultanate (kingdom) of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and anyone whom acknowledges the Mawlid (celebration of the birthday of Prophet ﷺ), who participates in the Mawlid, who supports the Mawlid un Nabi ﷺ (celebration of the birthday of Prophet ﷺ), Allah (AJ) opens that light within the heart of the servant so that their Muhammadan light, the Muhammadan kingdom, begin to open within their heart. ‘Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done. On earth as it is in heaven.’ That du’a is for Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.
“…Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done. On earth as it is in heaven…” – The Lord’s Prayer
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is the Only One Who Carries the Will of Allah (AJ)
‘Oh, my father, who are in heaven’ – who said that? Who was he talking to? Allah’s (AJ) not the father of anyone. That’s a du’a (supplication) to the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. They like it. They don’t like it, welcome. They have to acknowledge a reality is opening on Earth. The kingdom of Allah’s (AJ) is coming and that kingdom is called Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ.
That kingdom come and whose Will will be done? Whom the one who brings Allah’s (AJ) will onto Earth and throughout the universe? The only one who carries the Will of Allah (AJ) – what Surat YaSeen ﷺ described? ‘My irada and My amr are in you.’ “Amru wa arada.” Right?
﴾إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ ﴿٨٢
36:82 – “Innama AmruHu idha Arada shay an, an yaqola lahu kun faya koon.” (Surat YaSeen)
“His command is when He intends a thing, He says to it, “Be,” and it is!” (YaSeen, 36:82)
Prophet ﷺ Speaks the Command of Allah (AJ)
Surat al YaSeen ﷺ is the heart. Allah’s (AJ) ancient Qur’an is teaching us from the heart is Surat al YaSeen ﷺ, and what Allah (AJ) says that, ‘My Amr, My order and My irada (will) is within you’, is within the heart of Prophet ﷺ. The amr (command) is the spoken word for the King. When the King speaks, it’s the command of Allah (AJ) throughout the universes and what Allah’s (AJ) irada and what Allah (AJ) wants, but is not spoken is the will of Allah (AJ) only known to Sayyidina Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ.
‘Thy will be done’ is the reality and the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. It means that sultanate of Prophet ﷺ is opening upon the Earth and the reality of that sultanate to open upon the Earth and upon the creatures of Allah (AJ) is by Mawlid un Nabi ﷺ. Because once the servant begins, the durood e sharif begins, the respect and ihtiram (respect) and Tashrif un Nabi ﷺ (honouring the Prophet ﷺ) – they begin to have a love and a respect.
Our Salvation is Based on Our Sincere Love, Not Our Actions
As soon as they participate in Mawlid un Nabi ﷺ, they are actually opening the birth of the Muhammadan light within their own heart. As a result, that light opens in the heart of the servant, blesses the servant, begins to guide the servant, begins to guide them towards every goodness that Allah (AJ) want and refraining from every badness that Allah (AJ) asked us to abstain from.
We pray that Allah (AJ) dress us and bless us with the immensity of the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Only by means of that love is our najat (salvation). Because when the servant has that love and everything they do wrong and every shortcoming they have, they know only love can save them, not their action and not their ‘amal (good deed). The ‘amal is all going to be judged. If we think ‘Oh, my salah (daily prayer) will save me,’ Allah (AJ) said ‘Let me dress you. Hold, hold. Let me account for how you prayed. What was your intention when you prayed? Did you want to be seen by people or your prayer was really for Me?’
Our Actions Will Be Judged, But Our Love of Prophet ﷺ Won’t Be
So, every action, every ‘amal is going to be judged so we don’t count on any ‘amal. But the only ‘amal that has no judgment is muhabbat (love) and ishq. For ishq (love) and muhabbat of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, there is no judgment. That ‘Ya Rabbi, all my actions may be deemed worthless to You. I don’t pray as good as other people. I can’t recite as good as other people. I can’t do all the things of other people, but only my ishq and muhabbat can save me.’
How Allah (AJ) can punish love? If we acknowledge to ourself our weakness and our shortcomings and, ‘I don’t find any good in any of my actions. I tried my best all my life. But with all sincerity, I have this love in my heart and it’s that love that drives me and that love that puts my head at the feet of Prophet ﷺ.’
Sayyidina Abdul Qadir Jilani (Q) Will Intercede for Lovers of Prophet ﷺ
That asking, ‘Don’t let me to lift my head. Don’t let me to be from away from under your foot. That your holy qadam (footstep) to be guiding and to be blessing and to be supporting.’ This when Sayyidina Abdul Qadir Jilani (Q) said that, ‘All awliya are under my feet.’ Why? Because qaddam ar-Rasul (on the footstep of the Messenger). That was not a boasting, but that, ‘I support them and I’ll keep them to be correct and to be good. I’ll intercede for them if they should go wrong’ because these are Ahbab an Nabi ﷺ (lovers of Prophet ﷺ).
They are the lovers and they’re like the children in Divinely Presence that you don’t want them to be harmed. You don’t want them to be in difficulty. You won’t want them to be ashamed. So, then they taught us: our only, only salvation is love. 
That when we have this love for Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and the expression and the proof of that love, the proof is in your actions that make that love to shine, that make that love to show.
So, when they see you, they say, ‘Oh, you guys are Muhammadan.’ Yes, you’re very right. We are Muhammadan. That you have an immense love and that everything about you is carrying that flag and that muhabbat and that ishq and that love. We pray that Allah (AJ) increase us in that love. That that kingdom’s light to emanate from our hearts and that love to save us, our family, our community and all those whom come in touch with us, inshaAllah.
