Shaykh Sayid Abul-Huda AlYaqoubi- Prophetic Miracles 2014


Two weeks ago Allah gave me a great honor to write a book of Salawat upon Sayyiduna Rasul Allah ﷺ. Something special happened to me and Allah honoured me with a great vision of Sayyiduna Rasul Allah ﷺ, I was in a state of ecstasy. I started writing Salawat and in a few hours I wrote 22 salawat then i went to sleep. I got up after about 3 hours and then I started writing again. In 5 five days i wrote approx 500 forms of prayers, by friday 600 prayers were written, some are unique in their style in the history of Islam. I wrote 77 forms of prayers using the 14 undotted letters in the arabic alphabet as are used in the name "Muhammad" ﷺ. Allah inspired me to write forms of prayers using the non dotted letters. I also wrote over 120 forms of prayers on Sayyiduna Rasul Allah ﷺ in the context of different islamic sciences (such as fiqh etc). I wrote the Salawat on Sayyiduna Rasul Allah ﷺ using the 99 names of Allah, demonstrating how each aspect of the name relates to the attributes of Sayyiduna Rasul Allah ﷺ and to us. I went through Al Quran and selected every single verse in which He ﷺ is mentioned and wrote Salawat from those verses, It is now longer than Dala'il al-Khayrat [the most celebrated manual of Blessings on the Prophet] written by Imam Muhammad ibn Sulayman al-Jazuli al-Hassani (may Allah lighten his tomb). If I had planned to write it I would have probably spent a year to produce it. In less than a week i wrote it, I think I will call it Shifa'a al-Quloob (remedy of the heart). There are two special sections in it. There is a section on Haja'at (need) and the other Salawat al-Shifa (prayer of cure -15 forms). I finished the first version on friday. - Shaykh Sayyid Muhammad al-Yaqoubi | Prophetic Miracles 2014

Prophetic Sunnah Always Best Treatment


Over 1,400 years ago, whenever a newborn child was brought to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), he would chew a date until it was soft and then rub a piece of it onto the palate of the baby. This Sunnah (prophetic practice) is called Tahneek. Today, BBC News has reported that medical researchers in New Zealand have proposed that - "A dose of sugar given as a gel rubbed into the inside of the cheek is a cheap and effective way to protect premature babies against brain damage" This is one of the reasons why Muslims follow the Sunnah of the Messenger (pbuh) without questioning it. Science is only now discovering a tradition that was introduced 1,400 years ago in the deserts of Arabia. Islam in all its aspects has relevance today, tomorrow and forever. http://m.bbc.com/news/health-24224206

Prophet's Special Mercy on Imam Nab'haani


"During my stay in Madinat al-Munawwarah, I once experienced extreme hunger. Presenting myself at the blessed tomb of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.), I pleaded, 'Ya Rasulullah (s.a.w.), I am hungry!” Suddenly, I fell asleep. Meanwhile, someone awoke me and asked me to go with him. I agreed and he took me to his house. Serving me with dates, butter and wheat bread he said, 'Eat until you are satiated because my blessed ancestor Sayyiduna Muhammad (s.a.w.) has commanded me to be hospitable to you. Come to me whenever you feel hunger in future.'” Imam Yusuf ibn Isma’il an-Nabhani (q.s.)

Repentance


Rush also to the sincere repentance that will take you to God’s love for you. He said, God loves the repentant (2:222). How great is the repentance that takes to love! He who has repented [tāba] has turned back [anāba]; and he who has turned back has returned [āba]; and he who has returned has knocked on the door [bāb]; and he who has knocked on the door, the door will soon be openedfor him; and he for whom the door has opened, has seen the people of the realities [albāb], those from whom the veil [hijāb] has been lifted. I said by the grace of my Lord, Repent if you want the love of the Forgiving One for God forgives all sins. He is not disappointed by he who comes to him, repentant, he is saved by his repentance from what is other than Him. The heart is not straight in its actions until it repents to the One, the Subduer. The love of the world is an unsettling state of thirst and worry, so remove the thirst of your soul by making it renounce the perishing world and desire the everlasting One. If it desires, it renounces; and if it renounces, it finds, and if it finds, it becomes serious, and if it becomes serious, it rushes forth; and it it rushes forth, it arrives; and if it arrives, it connects. Shaykh Sālih al-Ja’farī al-Fawā’id al-Ja’fariyyah a Commentary on Forty Prophetic Traditions translated by Sidī Samer Dajani

How Strange We Long Not For The Provider but the provided!


The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Surely I know an Ayat which, if people would have followed, would have sufficed for them concerning everything, ‘For those who fear Allah, He provides a way out for them, (and) He also provides them provisions from (sources) that they could never have imagined (Surah at-Talaq, Ayat 2-3).’” [Ahmad] An old man came to Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi. Overcome with sorrow he had unbuttoned his shirt, was clawing at and pounding on his chest and wailing. He came down on his knees and holding onto the sleeves of Maulana Rumi’s coat said, “I had a poor little child… only seven. They kidnapped him! I have become weak searching for him!” Maulana Rumi counseled him with, “How strange! All beings have lost Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) yet they do not search for Him, nor demand from anyone to help them find Him. They neither pound their chests nor tear at their hair. Such an old man as you destroys himself in the longing for a child: Why do you not seek Allah and ask for His help, so that you can find your Yusuf like Yaqub? The old man buttoned his shirt and repented. Soon he was given the good news that his son had been found. Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) is the One who bestows the child. Above one’s love and search for a child, Allah must be sought and loved.

Blessed Sandal


There is no equal to the impression of the Blessed Sandal of the Chosen Oneﷺ , It is Solace for my soul, Kohl for my eyes, So respect the imprint of the Exalted Sandals For every head wishes to be its foot. Verily I serve the image of the Sandal of Mustafa(salallahu'alay'he'wa'sallam) . That I shall live under its shadow in both worlds. [Sa’d] Ibn Masud radi Allahu ‘anhu was in the service of His Sandal. And I am fortunate by serving its image. I dust the Sandal image with the whiteness of my beard. Since the Prophet(salallahu'alay'he'wa'sallam) fastened the band that passed between His toes. It is not for the image that my heart is longing. Yet it yearns for the one who wore this Sandal. We are lowered by awe to honour this Sandal. And whenever we lower before it we are raised. So place it on the highest shelf! For indeed in reality it is a crown and only outwardly a Sandal. - Imam Yusuf al-Nabahani rahimahu Llah -

Love is more important than Oxygen


Can you live without air? The love and yearning for rasoolAllah salAllahu alayhi wasalam is more important to your soul than air is to your body Sayyiduna Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi
