Awliya

"The hearts of the awliyā' are not tight, rather they are more broader than the oceans. They say to their students that they are the weakest while others are superior, therefore, seek khayr wherever you may find it." — Shaykh al-Islām Dr Muhammad Tāhir al-Qādirī

✦SECRETS OF SURAH AL-KAHF✦

Ever wondered why Prophet Muhammad(SAW) asked us to recite Surat Al-Kahf every Friday?Let’s find out today inshaAllah… This Surah has Four stories in it,having some morals,lets see them and understand what they are saying to us:1) The People Of The CaveIts the story of young men who lived in a disbelieving town, so they decided to migrate for the sake of Allah and run away. -Allah rewards them with mercy in the cave and protection from the sun - They woke up and found the entire village believers. MORAL:TRIAL OF FAITH.2) The Owner Of Two GardensA story of a man whom Allah blessed with two beautiful gardens, but the man forgot to thank the One who blessed him with everything and he even dared to doubt Allah regarding the afterlife.So His garden was destroyed - He regretted ,but was too late and his regret did not benefit him .MORAL:TRIAL OF WEALTH.3) Musa(AS) and Khidr(AS)When Musa(AS) was asked-“Who’s the most knowledgeable of the people of earth?”” Musa(AS) said:Me…,but Allah revealed to him that there’s someone who Knows more than him.Musa(AS) traveled to the man and learnt how the Divine Wisdom can sometimes be hidden in matters which we perceive as bad.MORAL:TRIALOF KNOWLEDGE.4) Dhul-QarnaynItsa story of the great King that was given knowledge and power and was going around the world,helping people and spreading all that’s good.He was able to overcome the problem of Yajooj-Majooj and build a massive dam with the help of people whom he could not even understand.MORAL:TRIAL OF POWER.In the middle Allah mentions Iblees as the one who stirs these trials:Behold! We said to the angels “Bow down to Adam”: they bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the Jinns, and he broke the Command of his Lord. Will ye then take him and his progeny as protectors rather than Me? And they are enemies to you! Evil would be the exchange for the wrongdoers! Now let us see what’s the relationship between Surat Al-Kahf and the Dajjal (Anti-Christ)? Dajjal will appear before Day of Judgement with the 4 trials: ***He’ll ask people to worship him and not Allah:Trial of Faith .***He’ll be given powers to start/stop rain and tempt people with his wealth:Trial of with his wealth. .***He’ll trial people with the “knowledge” and news he gives them:Trial of Knowledge .He’ll control huge parts of the Earth. Trial of Power .How to survive these trials? The answers are in Surat Al-Kahf Survival Kit 1: Good companionship. “And keep thy soul content with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His Face; and let not thine eyes pass beyond them, seeking the pomp and glitter of this Life; no obey any whose heart We have permitted to neglect the remembrance of Us, one who follows his own desires, whose case has gone beyond all bounds.” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 28) Survival Kit 2: Knowing the Truth of this World . “Set forth to them the similitude of the life of this world: It is like the rain which we send down from the skies: the earth’s vegetation absorbs it, but soon it becomes dry stubble, which the winds do scatter: it is (only) Allah who prevails over all things” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 45) Survival Kit 3: Humbleness. “Moses said: “Thou wilt find me, if Allah so will, (truly) patient: nor shall I disobey thee in aught.””(Surat Al-Kahf, verse 69) Survival Kit 4: Sincerity. “Say: “I am but a man like yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your Allah is one Allah. whoever expects to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness, and, in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as partner.” (Surat Al- Kahf, verse 110) Survival Kit 5: Calling to Allah . “And recite (and teach) what has been revealed to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can change His Words, and none wilt thou find as a refuge other than Him.” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 27) Survival Kit 6: Remembering the HereAfter . “ One Day We shall remove the mountains, and thou wilt see the earth as a level stretch, and We shall gather them, all together, nor shall We leave out any one of them. And they will be marshalled before thy Lord in ranks, (with the announcement), “Now have ye come to Us (bare) as We created you first: aye, ye thought We shall not fulfil the appointment made to you to meet (Us)!”: And the Book (of Deeds) will be placed (before you); and thou wilt see the sinful in great terror because of what is (recorded) therein; they will say, “Ah! woe to us! what a Book is this! It leaves out nothing small or great,but takes account thereof !” They will find all that they did, placed before them: And not one will thy Lord treat with injustice.” (Surat Al-Kahf, verses 47-49)

Ya Nafsu- Oh My Soul (ReMix) by Aaron Haroon Sellars

Should you not gain your wants, my soul, then be not grieved; But hasten to that banquet which your Lord’s bequeathed. And when a thing for which you ask is slow to come, Then know that often through delay are gifts received. Find solace in privation and respect its due, For only by contentment is the heart relieved. And know that when the trials of life have rendered you Despairing of all hope, and of all joy bereaved, Then shake yourself and rouse yourself from heedlessness, And make pure hope a meadow that you never leave. Your Maker’s gifts take subtle and uncounted forms. How fine the fabric of the world His hands have weaved. The journey done, they came to the water of life, And all the caravan drank deep, their thirst relieved. Far be it from the host to leave them thirsty there, His spring pours forth all generosity received. My Lord, my trust in all Your purposes is strong, That trust is now my shield; I’m safe, and undeceived. All those who hope for grace from You will feel Your rain; Too generous are You to leave my branch unleaved. May blessings rest upon the loved one, Muhammad, Who’s been my means to high degrees since I believed. He is my fortress and my handhold, so my soul, Hold fast, and travel to a joy still unconceived. ~ Shaykh Ali bin Husayn al-Habshi Source :- http://healing-hearts-blog.com/

The Intimate Prayer of Ibrahim Ibn Adam

I have left men utterly, out of love for you, And orphaned my children, that I might behold You Though, You dismemebered me for love’s sake limb by limb, Yet would my heart yearn for none besides You Overlook the faults of a weakling who is come to You If he has disobeyed You, O Vigilant Master, Yet he has never bowed down to another besides You, O Lord, Your ill-obeying slave has come to you, Admitting his sins, though he has prayed to You Should You forgive, it well befits You, And if You reject, who should show mercy besides You?

Irremdiable art the death & its institutions. Individuals capacious,liveselegant did it perish. As is water absorbed in new earthen wares, Or as if the vendors leave their establishments with shutters down.

~Kalam 3 Sheikhulalam in English 6~

Let Thou Listen attentively the Scriptures of and maxims of the Holy Quran. Granted shalt thou be the paradise with nymphs one day. That day tyrants wilt be set to blaze in furnaces. While scholars shalt make their rooms in pavilions.
