Zikrs Shatter Negative Energy
From the Realities of Mawlana (Q) as taught by Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi
A’uzu Billahi Minash Shaitanir Rajeem
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the rejected one
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Atiullah wa atiur Rasul wa Ulil amre minkum.
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)
Move Through the Twelve Veils of Gnosticism
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 are still in existence. Alhamdulillah, that Allah (AJ) granted us to enter into the month of Safar, the month of Surat al-Kahf and the reality of the cave and to be from the Companions of the Cave.
That in this journey of the reality of the power of 9 and the 12 pardeh, the twelve veils, in which awliyaullah (saints) are giving from Shamsul Ma’rif, Shamsul Arifeen (Sun of Knowers), of the way towards gnosticism and the reality of their saintly guidance. That they move through the 9th surah (chapter), Surah Tawbah, and enter into the gate of tawbah (repentance). In that gate of tawbah, Allah (AJ), no “Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem”. “Bismillah Allahu Akbar”.
Follow the Path of Ashabul Kahf By Seeking Refuge in the Cave
That their life is dedicated in which to slay and destroy their bad character and from Surat at-Tawbah, Allah (AJ) guides them to the 18th surah, the next 9. The 18th surah, Surat al-Kahf, is the Companions of the Cave. This becomes the entire guideline for the way of tariqahs (spiritual paths). That every secret in this holy surah is an isharat (sign) for guidance and the mannerisms in which to guide the seekers into the heart of the Divine Presence.
Alhamdulillah, they taught to us then the heart of that Divinely Presence is the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and that Ashab ul Kahf (Companions of the Cave), Allah (AJ) is giving to us that: any time the dunya’s (material world) filled with difficulty and evilness, seek refuge to the cave. It means there’s a direction and a location in which the believer is supposed to take themselves. They didn’t say stand there and fight the negativity but direct yourself to the cave. Run to the cave and in that cave, Allah (AJ) will set out a rahmah and mercy.
﴾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)
The Muhammadan Cave is an Immense Protection From Dajjal
So, then that must be an immensely powerful cave. That if you live a life in which to direct yourself to the cave, Allah (AJ) has promised to set a mercy and set your affairs in order because dunya (material world) is fear of rizq (sustenance). Only reason people participate in dunya is because shaitan (satan) tells them that, ‘You’re going to be poor. You’re not going to have anything’. The fear that shaitan runs with is for their sustenance.
Allah (AJ) promises that to Companions of the Cave and those whom trying to emulate and copy the reality of the Companions of the Cave, the Muhammadan cave, the highest of its realities is that direct yourself to the cave. Run from what shaitan is making you to believe, especially in the time of dajjal (man of deceit). That’s why it’s every Jum’ah (Friday prayer) to be recited. Why? Because every Jum’ah is a reminder that dajjal is present. Dajjal is coming. More than ever we are living in the systems of dajjal. So, it’s an immense, immense protection. It’s an immense protection to recite it. More important is to understand Surat al-Kahf. It’s a guidance into the cave.
Allah (AJ) Will Settle Your Affairs When You Run to the Cave of Mercy
The tariqahs, the turuqs (spiritual paths) and the paths – their path is to the cave. Their whole reality is to reach to that cave. Their whole purpose is to guide students back to this cave of rahmah (mercy) and it has all of the disciplines and its realities. Then Allah (AJ) says, ‘We’ll settle your affairs.’ Don’t let shaitan (satan) to make you fear that, ‘No, I have to be outside of the cave and I have to run through the satanic system’. Allah (AJ) says, ‘Don’t worry. Come into the cave. We settle your affairs’.
﴾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)
It means the barakah and the blessing is so immense in this Muhammadan cave, in this ishq (love) and muhabbat of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. What the na’at was reciting? Agha to ky khobi… karam al agha. This is the na’at because they were fooled. Run and lift every heavy thing and do everything that you have to do for dunya and run, run, run, run, run, run out of the fear that it’s going to finish and then karam al agha means the immense miracle of your immensely position.
Those of High Status in Dunya are Low Status in Akhirah
As soon as I came to your love, everything was flowing upon me, dressed my soul, dressed every reality of my soul. We said before is like beads of knowledge that will become a tasbih (prayer beads) of your haqqaiq (realities). That when Allah (AJ) dresses your soul, then you have power. The one whom seeks the power of dunya (material world) has nothing from akhirah (hereafter) and his power is fake and false.
That’s why I said now everybody in dunya like this: up, up high. The people of akhirah, they look very low [Shaykh indicates akhirah people on the bottom] but because dunya is not the correct image, it’s actually like this [Shaykh indicates akhirah people on the top] because they are the people of akhirah and in akhirah, there are kings. But on this Earth, they look like they’re nothing. The people who look high on this Earth, they’re in the pits of the bottom because this is a reverse of the reality. We are a reflection on this Earth. It’s true reflection is in the heavens.
Your Inner Reality is More Powerful Than Earthly Illusions
That which you grab of dunya (material world) and spend all your life to achieve only from dunya, you lost akhirah (hereafter). But the one whom runs for his akhirah and if Allah (AJ) grants him the reality of these lights, “Subhanal ladhee biyadihi Mulk”. What was the rest? “Kulli shay… kulli shay in qadeer. Kulli shay.”
﴾تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ ﴿١
67:1 – “Tabarakal ladhee biyadihil mulku wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay in qadeer.” (Surat Al-Mulk)
“Blessed is He in Whose hands is Dominion/kingdom; and He has Power over all things.” (The Sovereignty, 67:1)
‘Glory be to the hand who reached the mulk (earthly realm) of this malakut (heavenly realm) and he encompasses all powers, all powers’. Allah (AJ) is giving His subhan unto the hand that reached that reality. That, ‘Glory be to the hand that reached this world of light. His power’s “Kulli shay.” His power’s all encompassing’. The one whom controls and been given from the inside by virtue of that reality already controls the outside. But the one who went outside, he lost everything inside. He has nothing. He’s holding something like a tomato that’s rotting because dunya is dying. Everything is a corpse on its process of death.
Divine Guidance Happens Through “Waliyun Murshidun” (Holy Qur’an, 18:17)
Shaitan (satan) fools people to think, ‘No, spend all your effort on…don’t worry about these people what they’re talking.’ But in reality, these people have a lot of power. The whole of dunya is at their feet waiting for their du’a (supplication), how it can assist them, how it can help them. It’s not something that can be understood, but Allah (AJ) is granting. Say, ‘I will set your affairs to be in order. Don’t worry.’ Come to Allah (AJ), the One whom writes all cheques, who provides all provision, who grants all healings. No one else, nothing else.
So, then they understood when Allah (AJ) wants to guide them. Then in the next ayah (verse), Allah (AJ) begins to describe, ‘Whom We guided, We have guided.’ Then like a legal contract, ‘Those who We did not guide, they will never have waliyun murshidun. Whom we guided, We have guided.’ So, verse 16 of Surat Al-Kahf: ‘Those whom have no guidance that We did not guide, We will not guide. They will never find a waliyun murshidun.’
﴾مَن يَهْدِ اللَّـهُ فَهُوَ الْمُهْتَدِ ۖ وَمَن يُضْلِلْ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُ وَلِيًّا مُّرْشِدًا…﴿١٧
18:17 – ” …man yahdillahu fahuwal Muhtadi, wa man yudlil falan tajida lahu waliyyan murshida. (Surat al Kahf)
“… He whom Allah, guides is rightly guided; but he whom Allah leaves to stray,- for him you will never find Saintly Guide to the Right Way.” (The Cave, 18:17)
Enter the Cave Under the Guidance of a Waliyun Murshidun
So it means what? Guidance must be at the hands of a wali (saint), murshid (authorized spiritual guide); not a murshid but a murshid who is and reached wilayat (sainthood) and that they have extraordinary gifts from Allah (AJ) for the station of their guidance because blind cannot lead blind. Their heart must be open and their satellite communication must be coming to guide people towards that reality.
So, this is just synopsis of where we have been going with this surah (chapter), inshaAllah. If they enter into the cave and they’re under that tarbiyah (discipline), Allah (AJ) then begin to describe that, ‘These companions of the cave, We sealed their hearing,’ and then they entered into their state. In that state, they thought that they had rested a day or half a day so very short period of time in their estimation.
﴾فَضَرَبْنَا عَلَىٰ آذَانِهِمْ فِي الْكَهْفِ سِنِينَ عَدَدًا ﴿١١
18:11 – “Fadarabnaa ‘alaa aazanihim fil Kahfi seneena ‘adadaa” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“Then We draw (a veil) over their ears, for a number of years, in the Cave, (so that they heard not)” (The Cave, 18:11)
The Companions of the Cave Achieved Time Travel
It means now giving us understanding of traveling through space and time. They didn’t say, ‘Oh, this was a long sleep. Unbelievable, but we’re still alive.’ But they say, ‘It was just a day or half a day.’ Allah (AJ) describes, ‘Had you seen them, you would have thought them to be awake.’
﴾وَتَحْسَبُهُمْ أَيْقَاظًا وَهُمْ رُقُودٌ ۚ وَنُقَلِّبُهُمْ ذَاتَ الْيَمِينِ وَذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ ۖ وَكَلْبُهُم بَاسِطٌ ذِرَاعَيْهِ بِالْوَصِيدِ ۚ لَوِ اطَّلَعْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَوَلَّيْتَ مِنْهُمْ فِرَارًا وَلَمُلِئْتَ مِنْهُمْ رُعْبًا ﴿١٨
18:18 – “Wa tahsabuhum ayqaazanw wa hum ruqood; wa nuqallibuhum zaatal yameeni wa zaatash shimaali wa kalbuhum baasitun ziraa’ayhi bilwaseed; lawit tala’ta ‘alaihim la wallaita minhum firaaranw wa lamuli’ta minhum rubaa.” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“And you would think/deem them awake, while they were asleep. And We turned them to the right and to the left sides; while their dog stretched his forelegs at the entrance/threshold. If you had looked at them, you would have turned back from them in flight and would have been filled with terror of them.” (The Cave, 18:18)
The Miraculous Time Shift: 309 Years in the Cave of the Companions
So, they have a wakeful state but yet they’re in a deep reality. Through that reality, they’re able to move through space and time. 300 and then 9 – 309 years, they entered a space and in a flash, it became 309 years in the future.
﴾وَلَبِثُوا فِي كَهْفِهِمْ ثَلَاثَ مِائَةٍ سِنِينَ وَازْدَادُوا تِسْعًا ﴿٢٥
18:25 – “Wa labisoo fee kahfihim salaasa mi’atin sineena wazdaadoo tis’aa” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“And they remained in their cave for three hundred years and exceeded by nine.” (The Cave, 18:25)
They ran from a people who wanted to kill them because they said, ‘We have to run. This person, if we don’t worship what he tells us, he will kill us’. In the entrance into the cave, Allah (AJ) did something in a hijab (veil) and pardeh upon their ears, 309 years have passed. So, it means immense, immense realities Allah (AJ) is describing within this miraculous cave. That’s not a drop, not a drop in a reality in the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ because everything from Prophet ﷺ down is just a mere example of the reality of who Prophet ﷺ is.
Hearing is the First Gateway to Divine Realities
So, real Ashab ul Kahf (Companions of the Cave) is the cave of Prophet ﷺ. That he took Sayyidina Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (as) into the cave, ‘alayhis salaam, and that is the cave of all realities. They say that every atom and arwah (soul) of creation was present within that cave to be present in that reality, to be dressed in that reality and every Muhammadan haqqaiq is of the highest reality. All of the lesser examples were examples of the Muhammadan haqqaiq.
So, it means then the Ashab ul Kahf of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, those whom are running towards that reality. The immensity of what Allah (AJ) is dressing their souls, blessing their souls and that Allah (AJ) with all of these powers that are going to come, Allah (AJ) draws our attention to hearing because you would think that somebody sleeping would be a veil on their eyes. But this reality had nothing to do with their eyes. It had to do with the level and the reality of hearing.
Your Hearing Directly Influences Your Soul
Because the hearing, sifat as-Sami’ (attribute of The All-Hearing), has a direct influence to your soul. Your door to soul is your ears. The window to your soul, our eyes. Allah (AJ) said, ‘Enter every home through the door, through the correct door.’
﴾وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَن تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِن ظُهُورِهَا وَلَـٰكِنَّ الْبِرَّ مَنِ اتَّقَىٰ ۗ وَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّـهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ ﴿١٨٩…
2:189 – “…Wa laysal birru bi-an tatol buyoota min zuhooriha wa lakinnal birra manit taqa, wa’ tol buyoota min abwabiha, wat taqollaha la’allakum tuflihoon.” (Surat Al-Baqarah)
“…And it is not righteousness to enter houses from the back, but righteousness is [in] one who fears Allah. And enter houses from their doors. And be Conscious of Allah that you may succeed.” (The Cow, 2:189)
So, this coding of Qur’an, they come and teach us that: your soul’s door is your ears. That’s why shaitan (satan) is now fighting for the ears of mankind. What the master of all realities, Allah (AJ) named Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ – YaSeen ﷺ. That the one whom has yaqeen (certainty) as sifat as-Sami’. Ya – yaqeen. Seen is as-Sami’ – the one whom hears. It means the ‘azimat (magnificence) and the greatness of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ is that he hears and Allah (AJ) created him to hear in complete perfection. As a result, he speaks.
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is the Only One Who Can Receive Allah’s (AJ) Speech
The one who hears Allah (AJ) speaks for Allah (AJ). Everyone else only hears Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. They don’t hear Allah (AJ). That’s why Allah’s (AJ) speech is called ‘Qur’an’. Allah (AJ) described, ‘If I reveal My Qur’an onto the mountain, it will be dust.’ But it’s revealed to the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and firm. Nothing moves.
﴾لَوْ أَنزَلْنَا هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنَ عَلَىٰ جَبَلٍ لَّرَأَيْتَهُ خَاشِعًا مُّتَصَدِّعًا مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ …﴿٢١
59:21 – “Law anzalna hadha alQurana ‘ala jabalin laraaytahu, khashi’an mutasaddi’an min khashyatillahi…” (Surat Al-Hashr)
“Had We sent down this Qur’an on a mountain, verily, you would have seen it obliterated to dust (from its power)…” (The Exile, 59:21)
That Prophet ﷺ is created for that reality. So, it means all the prophets (as), they are not inheriting from that reality. They hear Prophet ﷺ. So, the Muhammadan haqqaiq of YaSeen ﷺ, the one whom Allah (AJ) because of that granted Habibullah (beloved of Allah (AJ)). The one who heard Me, I created him ﷺ, his soul to hear Me. Not an angel hears Me. Not a prophet (as) hears Me. Nothing hears me but Sayyidina YaSeen ﷺ. Allah’s (AJ) Qul (speech) and Divinely qudra (power) – qaf-laam is ‘qul’. Allah’s (AJ) Divinely Speech only flows into the heart of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. One power, one source – this is tawheed (oneness). “La ilaha illAllah” only flows into “Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ.”
لَا إِلَهَ إلاَّ اللهُ مُحَمَّدٌا رَسُولْ الله ﷺ
“La ilaha illallahu Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ”
“There is no deity but Allah, Prophet Muhammad is the messenger of Allah”
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is the Only Channel for Allah’s (AJ) Commands and Will
Every amr (command) that comes out is from the tongue of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ; Lisanul Qadim, the ancient tongue of Allah (AJ) called Muhammadun Rasulallah ﷺ. So, it means it establishes its understanding. It’s not linear in which everything hears Allah (AJ). It’s not a Turkish bazaar. Nothing hears Allah (AJ) but Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. “Kullun amrun wa irada”.
﴾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 Wills/Intends a thing, He says to it, “Be,” and it is!” (YaSeen, 36:82)
Every command and every will of Allah (AJ) emanates in the soul of Prophet ﷺ. The amr is what will be spoken and the irada is the will of Allah (AJ) that emanates, complete unknown, that emanates in the soul of Prophet ﷺ. When Allah (AJ) wants it to be known, the command will come and then will be spoken to malaika (angels), Budala, Nujaba, Nuqaba, Awtad wal Akhyar, jinni wa malaika – seven categories of Ulul Amr (saints) will begin to take that conveyance and the amr of Allah (AJ) that emanates in the heart and on the tongue of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.
Perfect Your Spiritual Hearing to Obtain “Sam’ina wa Ata’na” (Holy Qur’an, 2:285)
That’s why “Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. Atiullah 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)
Obey Allah (AJ) – nobody can. Then Allah (AJ) gave “Atiur Rasul ﷺ” because the “Atiullah” is only for Prophet ﷺ to hear Allah (AJ). Then the Ulul Amr are awaiting from isharat and command of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. It means then this immense power of As-Sami’. So, then the Ashab ul Kahf (Companions of the Cave) must be trained by these Waliyun Murshidun on how to hear, how to perfect your hearing so that you’re a nation in which “Sam’ina wa ata’na.” That, ‘We hear and we obey.’
﴾سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَاِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيْرُ ﴿٢٨٥
2:285 – “Sam’ina wa ata’na, ghufranaka Rabbana wa ilaykal masir.” (Surat Al-Baqarah)
“…We hear, and we obey: (We seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord, and to Thee is the end of all journeys.” (The Cow, 2:285)
Now we hear and disobey. We hear and we argue. That reality will never open for the servant. The servant’s only ability to open these realities is that Allah (AJ) described, ‘We put a pardeh on their ear’. It means that they understood that the greatest fight on life right now is for hearing. What you hear, what you hear of whisperings, what you hear of songs and sounds, of every vibration is either lowering your soul or raising your soul.
You Are Vulnerable for Attack When Your Vibrations and Energies Run Low
A day will come where Islamic law will be understood by knowledge and by power and energy. Shari’ah (Divine law) is confusing for people. Sit here and debate the mazhabs (schools of Islamic law). You can go above all of that and just talk energy. Either your energy vibration is going to be raised or is going to be lowered. No other discussion and debate is of any relevance. Is this halal (permissible)? Is this haram (forbidden)?
It will all be understood by the energy. Is it raising your energy and your vibration or is it lowering your energy and your vibration? If it’s lowering, you’re going to be attacked. You can come under attack because every lower creation and lower desire and lower creature is then able to attack that servant. So, we said there’s a day is now coming where the road and the path for everybody, there’s going to be a right where you’re moving towards Allah’s (AJ) cave. Then there’ll be a choice for the left. Many clever people say, ‘I won’t make any choice’ but it doesn’t work that way because these creatures will pull you.
Learn to Love Prophet ﷺ to Move Towards the Cave of Mercy
But what we said in the na’at (prophetic praising) now, again the murad al qalb, the one whom calls the hearts to his direction is the cave of mercy. That this love and this ishq, these majlis (associations) of love of Prophet ﷺ is creating a bond where Prophet ﷺ described, ‘You will be with whom you love.’
“.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]
It means then what has to be achieved is love, ishq and muhabbat of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. It will make this murad al qalb and the love of Prophet ﷺ begin to call our heart into the right cave and you be with whom you love. All we have to do is learn how to love Prophet ﷺ. When we love, our soul is moving in that direction. Then if it moves in that direction, you know what’s right and wrong. You don’t have to study and memorize fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence) books.
Do Your Choices Raise or Lower Your Vibration and Energy?
You’re going up or you’re going down in your vibration. You watch that movie – you’re going up or you’re going down. You listen to that song – you’re going up or you’re going down. You want to put something in your mouth – is it going to take you up or it’s going to take you down? If you want to try to inhale something, whatever you think a fatwa (Islamic ruling) is, you think it’s going up or you’re going down?
Everything will be understood by energy, very clear, this 8 year old can understand it. Anything we do, our choices either is going to take the vibration up or it’s going to bring the vibration down. If the vibration going down, down, down, what happens? Then the creatures from the other side, they will be calling that servant in that direction. So, it means just from its energy understanding, it’s calling and then the immensity of the power.
Shaitan Sends Out Low Vibrations to Deplete You
So, when shaitan (satan) knows that haqqaiq, insan (mankind) and humans don’t know. When the devil knows and the agents of the devils know, then he can fight you by sound, fight you by backbiting, fight you by television shows and every type of bombardment. That now is a great fight for the ears of creation. Why? Because every bad sound that we hear, if you turn TV on it’s ghibat (backbiting). It’s 100% just backbiting, just backbiting. Why? Because shaitan is attacking your soul.
He’s not providing you entertainment. He doesn’t care that you’re entertained but he knows the reality is that, ‘I’m after your soul. I’m going to bring your vibrations so far down that you will be possessed in a second.’ You walk out on the street and a creature has entered you. You speaking different, thinking different, acting different. Right? Even you can recite and feel different; happens every day. It didn’t take but a second. You enter into a wrong space and that creature entered in. Why? Because the vibration of the person was at a level that was low enough for that creature to enter. But if the vibration is strong, there’s no way for that creature to enter because there’s now an interference in the vibration field.
Zikrs Cleanse Your Spiritual Vibrations and Energies
So, it means then our life is about either going up or going down on this vibration. So, then you make a graph saying, ‘Oh, a thousand is high and then medium level and then below. If my life, I can judge everything I’m going to do, what I want to do – is it going to take me up, going to take me down?’ Then they would describe: never miss the zikr (Divine remembrance) for a week. Keep yourself connected at least once in seven days.
Say, ‘Why?’ Say: it was a cleansing. Now we understand how this is a cleansing by energy and vibration. If throughout the day, let’s say you started the zikr. Everything’s fantastic. You’re a thousand. Come Monday, ‘ding’. All this yelling, screaming, bad words at work – down 200. Television shows all week long – down 400 – yelling, screaming and listening to this and the radios down, down, down. By the end of the week you’re at about 300 and capable of being possessed.
Heavenly Beings Always Attend Any Divine Majlis and Dress Us
Then what happens when you enter into the zikr, whether it’s home or live? The khatm and the zikr and the Miladun Nabi ﷺ (celebration of the birth of Prophet ﷺ) enters every space. Its energy enters every space. We said before the reality of these associations is the attendance of all seven categories of spirituality must be attending the khatms and zikrs and the Milad un Nabi ﷺ. There is not a majlis (gathering) of sali alan Nabi ﷺ (association of praising upon Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) that is not attended, not attended by these seven categories.
Do you think that there is an angel in this creation that the minute you begin your majlis, the angel doesn’t come to attend? How will it answer to Allah (AJ), ‘Oh I didn’t feel like it. I was busy over there.’ They must attend. Anything of a pious nature comes to attend to receive an immense amount of power. As a result of their power that they’re receiving, their madad and support upon the majlis empowers the majlis.
Allah’s (AJ) Truth Will Perish Any Falsehood (Holy Qur’an, 17:81)
So, whether you’re home, as soon as you put that on the speaker, those energy beings because their sense of hearing is not like ours. Immediately, they’re aware of that association and they must attend the association, in the house, wherever it is. As soon as that association begins, the majlis begins. The power is emanating. So, imagine now their vibrations are ten thousand, not like ours. They’re pure energy souls. So, all of a sudden ten thousand watts has entered into your living room. As soon as you enter with all your low frequencies, what Allah (AJ) say, “Qul jaa alhaqq”.
﴾وَ قُلْ جَآءَالْحَقُّ وَزَهَقَ الْبَطِلُ، إِنَّ الْبَطِلَ كَانَ زَهُوقًا ﴿٨١
17:81 – “Wa qul jaa alhaqqu wa zahaqal baatil, innal batila kana zahoqa.” (Surat Al-Isra)
“And say, Truth has come, and falsehood has perished. Indeed falsehood, [by its nature], is ever perishing/bound to perish.” (The Night Journey, 17:81)
‘Tell them when the truth comes, falsehood is perishing.’ These are the representations of Allah’s (AJ) truth. Allah’s (AJ) truth is a vibration and light. When the light of these realities enter into these associations, immediately everything is vibrating on their power and every lower frequency, everything attaching itself like a hot wire.
Negative Forces Cannot Stand the Immense Power of Sacred Gatherings
We went into traveling in the world in dangerous areas. There were certain communities very famous for disrupting the government because they would hijack the electrical line. They didn’t want to pay for electricity so they put wires on the electricity and they had like a city within a city. They didn’t pay taxes. They just sort of vampired the electricity of the community.
So. it means that every creature that is vampiring you, locked onto your energy because they don’t have the energy, those majlis and those associations have an immense power. They can’t stand in that association because Allah’s (AJ) words are true. That, ‘Tell them: when the truth comes falsehood goes and falsehood by its nature is perishing.’ (Holy Qur’an, 17:81) Those dirty creatures, they can’t stand in the face of that energy that’s…it burns them. It’s like you trying to stand in the middle of your barbecue. It’s a fire. It’s coming. You’ve got to run from the fire. Well, that for them is a fire. It’s an immense fire of light.
Just a Drop of Divine Light Shatters All Negativity
That’s why Allah (AJ) gives for us to see the vampire movies. Right? They’re wicked. They’re bad but how of a sudden sunlight burns them because Allah (AJ) is teaching for us that however evil is, it has actually no ability to stand in the presence of light. If a million evil things have encompassed, one match can begin to illuminate. One drop of light is the miraculous nature of light – light can’t be put out. You can have millions of darkness but if you light the torch of hope and light that one light, it’s illuminated and begins to shine.
So, it means that the power that comes into these associations immediately shatters all the negativity. The negativity runs because its nature is perishing. It will be obliterated by these lights. So, when they want to keep their existence, they run. They don’t sit there to vanish like a vampire. So, it means the associations have an immense cleansing. The association begins, the powers are going, the zikrs are going and immediately, brings everybody back to their charge of one thousand.
Voluntary Worship Has No Judgment When It’s Out of Love
That’s why the awliya (saints) were teaching, ‘Don’t miss your zikrs. It’s a shower and a cleaning for you.’ It’s not an entertainment because people think, ‘Oh they just…they’re reciting, they’re reciting. Why we don’t go to salah (daily prayer)?’ Oh, it’s not the same. Your salah, you don’t know if it’s going to be accepted. “Kulu amal bin niyat”.
“.عَنْ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِنَّمَا الْأَعْمَال بِالنِّيَّاتِ [صَحِيِحْ مُسْلِم: رقم ١٩٠٧، كتاب ٣٣، حَديث ٢٢.]
‘An Amirul Mumineen ‘Umar ibn al Khattab (as) qala: qala Rasulullahi ﷺ: “Innama al ‘aamaalu bin niyaat.” [Sahih Muslim, Raqam 1907, Kitab 33, Hadith 22]
The leader of the believers ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (as) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: “Verily all deeds/actions are based on their intentions.” [Source: Authentic by Muslim: Number 1907, Book 33, Hadith 22]
What was the intention of your salah? Where Allah (AJ) guaranteed that everyone’s salah, they’re going to be going to paradise? Your salah has to be judged based on your intention. What was the intention of the person praying? But these actions of muhabbat and love, they have no judgment. These are just pure energy associations. That you’re coming as a voluntary worship and you’re going to be dressed by realities that can’t be understood.
Divine Protection Through Majlis of Zikr
So, it means these majlis (gatherings) are immensely powerful associations meant to destroy evilness and wickedness and to recharge everybody’s battery and their soul energy comes and gets recharged by the association. That is the power of the realities of hearing. So, when shaitan (satan) is coming and fighting for the hearing of people, Allah (AJ) is not leaving His creation to just fall in the hands of shaitan. But then spreading the majlis of zikrs and associations of sali alan Nabi ﷺ as a source of immense power, immense light and immense energies. We pray that Allah (AJ) open for us that understanding and the immense blessings of that understanding.
InshaAllah, we’ll go to surah 28. Hajji Shahid will recite surat al 28 from Surat Al-Kahf, inshaAllah.
Reciter: A’uzu Billahi Minash shaitanir Rajeem Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. “Wasbir nafsaka ma’al ladheena yad’ona Rabbahum bilghadati wal’ashiyi yureedon. Wajhahu, wa la ta’du ‘aynaka ‘anhum tureedu zeenatal hayatid dunya, wa laa tuti’ man aghfalnaa qalbahoo ‘an zikrinaa wattaba’a hawaahu wa kaana amruhoo furutaa.” SadaqAllahul Aliyyil ‘Azim.
﴾وَاصْبِرْ نَفْسَكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُم بِالْغَدَاةِ وَالْعَشِيِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُ ۖ وَلَا تَعْدُ عَيْنَاكَ عَنْهُمْ تُرِيدُ زِينَةَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ۖ وَلَا تُطِعْ مَنْ أَغْفَلْنَا قَلْبَهُ عَن ذِكْرِنَا وَاتَّبَعَ هَوَاهُ وَكَانَ أَمْرُهُ فُرُطًا ﴿٢٨
18:28 – “Wasbir nafsaka ma’al ladheena yad’ona Rabbahum bilghadati wal’ashiyi yureedona Wajhahu, wa la ta’du ‘aynaka ‘anhum tureedu zeenatal hayatid dunya, wa laa tuti’ man aghfalnaa qalbahoo ‘an zikrinaa wattaba’a hawaahu wa kaana amruhoo furutaa.” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His Holy Face;. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments/glitter of the worldly life and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect. (The Cave, 18:28)
Don’t Ask Prophet ﷺ to Listen to You, But Ask For His Divinely Gaze (Holy Qur’an, 2:104)
SadaqAllahul ‘Azim wa barakah Rasulul Kareem (The Most Generous Messenger). In the rules of this isharat (sign), then Allah (AJ) is granting us an immense mercy. That this is a reality of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ because all our lives we’re told, ‘Don’t ask Prophet ﷺ to listen to you but ask that the holy nazar (gaze) of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ be upon you.’
﴾يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَقُولُوا رَاعِنَا وَقُولُوا انظُرْنَا وَاسْمَعُوا …﴿١٠٤
2:104 – “Yaa ayyuhal ladheena aamano, laa taqolo ra’yina wa qolu unzurna wasma’o…” (Surat Al-Baqarah)
“O you who believe! Do not say (to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)) ra’yena, listen to us, and say Unzurna (gaze upon us) and you listen (to him (pbuh)…” (The Cow, 2:104)
So, our life and the source of our power is the nazar of Prophet ﷺ. Why you do good? Allah (AJ) look at you. Oh, but if you want Allah (AJ) to look at you, it should be Prophet ﷺ looking at you. If you got the attention of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ looking at you, know that Allah (AJ) sees through his eyes. But if you did something, you think Allah (AJ) is looking at you but Prophet ﷺ is not looking at you? If Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ didn’t think to look at you, don’t think Allah (AJ) is looking at you because nazar and tajalli (manifestation) and barakah (blessing) is flowing. ‘If My Rasul (messenger) doesn’t deem you worth looking at, why would I look at you?’
Without the Gaze of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, You Do Not Have Allah’s (AJ) Attention
So, then these are guidances of power. That do the deeds and the actions to get the nazar (gaze) of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. He is your imam (religious leader), your king and your way. If his nazar upon you, then know that Allah’s (AJ) nazar is with that, His power is with that. That those beatific eyes are dressed by Allah’s (AJ) Might and Majesty and that becomes the source of every beauty and fragrance and blessings in our life.
Everything closed will be opened by the nazar of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Every difficulty to be relieved by the nazar of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Every du’a (supplication) to be granted will be granted by the nazar of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, the same rule. Why Allah (AJ) to take you out of the difficulty if Prophet ﷺ is not praying for you? Allah (AJ) doesn’t come without Prophet ﷺ. He’s the khalifa (representative). If you didn’t get the attention of this blessed soul, why Allah (AJ) coming?
Be With the Righteous That Align With Divine Presence
So, then Allah (AJ) clarified, ‘I am with nabiyeen (prophets), siddiqeen (truthful), shuhadayi (martyrs) wa saliheen (righteous). These are the best of company. I am with them. If they’re not with you, I’m not with you.’
﴾وَمَن يُطِعِ اللّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فَأُوْلَـئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللّهُ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَالصِّدِّيقِينَ وَالشُّهَدَاء وَالصَّالِحِينَ وَحَسُنَ أُولَـئِكَ رَفِيقًا ﴿٦٩
4:69 – “Wa man yuti’ Allaha war Rasola faolayeka ma’al ladheena an’ama Allahu ‘alayhim minan Nabiyeena, was Siddiqeena, wash Shuhadayi, was Saliheena wa hasuna olayeka rafeeqan.” (Surat An-Nisa)
“And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger (pbuh) are in the company of those on whom Allah has bestowed His Favours/Blessings – of the Prophets, the sincere Truthful, the Martyrs/Witnesses to the truth (who testify), and the Righteous, and excellent are those as companions.” (The Women, 4:69)
That who are you keeping a company with? So, our life was to be definitely with nabiyeen. Then Prophet ﷺ taught us, ‘If you love me, love my companions, love my family, love my Ahlul Bayt (holy family of Prophet ﷺ). So, then we love the siddiqeen, shuhada, the ‘ulama (scholars) who are inheriting from this siddiqeen. If we’re with these ‘ulama, their entire majlis (associations) are saliheen. Allah (AJ) say, ‘I’m with them. You want to be with Me? Be with that crowd.’
﴾قُل لَّا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا إِلَّا الْمَوَدَّةَ فِي الْقُرْبَ ﴿٢٣
42:23 – “Qul laa asalukum ‘alayhi ajran illal muwaddata fil qurba.” (Surat Ash-Shura)
“Say [O Muhammad]: I do not ask you of any reward for this bounty, except to love those near of kin [Ahlul Bayt].” (The Consultation, 42:23)
Prophet ﷺ Doesn’t Pass Those Who Call Upon Their Lord (Holy Qur’an, 18:28)
So, then our life is for this nazar. Then Allah (AJ) is granting from this guidance of this cave, ‘Keep yourself patient.’ This is an understanding between Allah (AJ) and Prophet ﷺ. ‘Keep yourself patient with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and in the evening seeking His Holy Face and let not your eyes pass beyond them.’
﴾وَاصْبِرْ نَفْسَكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُم بِالْغَدَاةِ وَالْعَشِيِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُ ۖ وَلَا تَعْدُ عَيْنَاكَ عَنْهُمْ تُرِيدُ زِينَةَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ۖ وَلَا تُطِعْ مَنْ أَغْفَلْنَا قَلْبَهُ عَن ذِكْرِنَا وَاتَّبَعَ هَوَاهُ وَكَانَ أَمْرُهُ فُرُطًا ﴿٢٨
18:28 – “Wasbir nafsaka ma’al ladheena yad’ona Rabbahum bilghadati wal’ashiyi yureedona Wajhahu, wa la ta’du ‘aynaka ‘anhum tureedu zeenatal hayatid dunya, wa laa tuti’ man aghfalnaa qalbahoo ‘an zikrinaa wattaba’a hawaahu wa kaana amruhoo furutaa.” (Surat Al-Kahf)
“And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His Holy Face;. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments/glitter of the worldly life and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect. (The Cave, 18:28)
Allahu Akbar. Keep yourself busy with zikr (Divine remembrance). Keep yourself busy with your tafakkur (contemplation) because this is the cave in which Allah (AJ) promised you a rahmah (mercy) and, ‘I’m going to settle your affairs.’ Now He’s showing you how He’s going to settle his affairs because He gave a guidance to His king, ‘Keep your nazar (gaze) busy with this category of servants whom they’re busy with their zikr, busy with their reflection, busy with their cleaning.’
Shaykhs are Protected By Prophet’s ﷺ Nazar
Ahle Suffah, the people of the bench. Why? Because they sat with their love for Prophet ﷺ. They dedicated their being in their love. Allah’s (AJ) guarantee is a command to those holy eyes, ‘Keep it on them. Keep that blessing upon them because at any moment what they need, what they desire, what they’re coming short of, your nazar (gaze) will dress them, bless them and give them everything they need. If you should take your nazar off of them, they’ll be in distress and difficulty.’
It’s an immense guidance, an immense reality. That Allah (AJ) gives a description of, ‘How I’m going to settle the affairs.’ Do you think that without this nazar, these shaykhs can talk like this without shayateen (devils) eating them and destroying everything about them? It’s because of the power of that nazar that continuously on them like a sunshine that shines upon their face for not a single Dracula to come out. The one whom is always encased in sunlight, right? Because otherwise, the vampires would have eaten him by now.
Do Not Let Your Eyes Pass Beyond the People of Zikr (Holy Qur’an, 18:28)
If he should fall into a minute of darkness…that’s what the vampire movie is showing. You’re going, going, going. All of a sudden, there’s a shade. The vampire ate you because he’s shielded from that. But the one whom is continuously under this nazar is his protection. His nazar are more powerful than the sun that we know that shining upon that soul, gazing upon that soul.
What is it coming short? What is it in need of? What are the blessings required by? What is that soul praying for? That nazar is the one that is saying ameen and Allah (AJ) is granting upon it. It’s an immense, immense power. Then what Allah (AJ) is saying, ‘And don’t let your eyes pass beyond them and desiring the worldly life.’ (Holy Qur’an, 18:28)
It means don’t look to the people whom maybe they have big huge this, that, all the emirs and the sultans of regions that look like they’re so special that you’d be astonished. Allah (AJ) said, ‘Don’t even look to them. That don’t lift this holy nazar off of these people whom are struggling and striving for your love. Don’t even look to those people. They’re not worth the gaze.’
Do Not Seek Guidance From Hearts Heedless of Zikr (Holy Qur’an, 18:28)
‘Not to obey those whose hearts…’ and gives for us never to obey those whose hearts they’ve become heedless of the remembrance of Allah (AJ). Never follow the guidance of someone who does not do zikrullah (remembrance of Allah (AJ)). This is a isharah (sign) from Allah (AJ) to the king and the king’s guidance to our heart. Never seek guidance from someone who is not doing zikr because his heart, Allah (AJ) is describing became heedless of zikrullah.
He’s heedless of Allah (AJ) and the remembrance of Allah (AJ). Allah (AJ) describes that person whom is heedless of zikrullah, his affairs will go nowhere. It’s garbage, his affairs. So, the one whom their affairs are in garbage, don’t seek their counsel. Don’t seek their advice. Don’t seek that anything from them is coming to you of any benefit. (Holy Qur’an, 18:28) It means then the conditioning for Ashab ul Kahf (Companions of the Cave) and the students of Ashab ul Kahf is immense power.
Allah (AJ) Guarantees Your Success When You Gain Prophet’s ﷺ Gaze
Allah (AJ) is giving to us a reality that all your good deeds, all your good actions, your Mawlid (celebration of the birthday of Prophet ﷺ), your celebrations, conducting yourself as ambassadors of love and ishq, going out onto the streets and giving food. Why? So, the Prophet’s ﷺ nazar (gaze) be upon us. If Prophet’s ﷺ gaze begins to, like a radar, fall upon you and look into your heart with this ishq and this love, Allah (AJ) has guaranteed your success because Allah’s (AJ) lights are following with those eyes, dressing you, blessing you.
Then Allah (AJ) is warning for us that, ‘Oh, you are the people of the students of this cave. That if a person became heedless in their zikrullah, in their remembrance and in their love for Allah (AJ)…’ If they became heedless of their love for Allah (AJ), imagine then how heedless they are for the love of Prophet ﷺ. Then Allah (AJ) said, ‘Never obey them. Never obey them. Never seek their counsel. Don’t take any guidance from them.’ (Holy Qur’an, 18:28)
The Hearts of Ahle Zikr Are Alive and Illuminated
That’s why then the tariqah (spiritual path) students, they stick with their tariqah environment. They stick with their shaykhs. They know that the shaykh and the authority of the shaykh and those whom they are Ahle Zikr (People of Divinely Remembrance). Their hearts are alive and illuminated with the love of Allah (AJ), love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and they don’t ever come and quote somebody whom is a dead-hearted person.
Because now everybody on YouTube is coming and quoting somebody else and their hearts are dead. You ask them, ‘Can you make zikr?’ They even say, ‘No, you can’t.’ Most of these associations cannot even take place in a masjid in western America because they say that, ‘Zikr is not allowed’.
So then what tells you what Allah (AJ) thinks of them? That if they are heedless of their zikr and the remembrance of Allah (AJ), Allah (AJ), ‘Don’t, don’t even get near them. Go back home. Don’t even be in the presence of these people. Their affairs are rubbish and they’ll take you away from the remembrance of Allah (AJ) and definitely the love and the ishq of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.’ This is an immense gift in this holy month and this holy reality that Allah (AJ) is granting those whom struggling within the cave, a guarantee of the nazar (gaze) of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. May we do the deeds and the actions necessary for Allah (AJ) to dress us and bless us and that Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ be pleased with us.
Subhana rabbika rabbal ‘izzati ‘amma yasifoon, wa salaamun ‘alal mursaleen, walhamdulillahi rabbil ‘aalameen. Bi hurmati Muhammad al-Mustafa wa bi siri Surat al-Fatiha.
