From Our Wilayah
“AND NO BEARER of burdens shall be made to bear another’s burden; and if one weighed down by his load calls upon [another] to help him carry it, nothing thereof may be carried [by that other], even if it be one’s near of kin. Hence, thou canst [truly] warn only those who stand in awe of their Sustainer although He is beyond the reach of their perception, and are constant in prayer, and [know that] whoever grows in purity, attains to purity but for the good of his own self, and [that] with God is all journeys’ end. The blind man is not equal with the seer; Nor is darkness (tantamount to) light; Nor is the shadow equal with the sun’s full heat; and neither are equal the living and the dead [of heart]. Behold, [O Muhammad,] God can make hear whomever He wills, whereas thou canst not make hear such as are [dead of heart like the dead] in their graves: thou art nothing but a warner” (35:18-23).
874) From Our Wilayah: In the end only the Nafs of Allah exists, we are “swimming” in it trying to exert our will when in reality fate is His will. فَلَنَقُصَّنَّ عَلَيْهِم بِعِلْمٍ وَمَا كُنَّا غَائِبِينَ (Another of Allah’s random verses, if you only knew the story behind this note, it is one of the “pillars” of the Arsh in the next life and I am its bearer. It began with my statement to Allah, “it is Haram for you to veil yourself from me”).
875) From Our Wilayah: “As for those who take the deniers of the truth for their allies in preference to the believers – do they hope to be honoured by them when, behold, all honour belongs to God [alone]?” (4:139), “Whoever desires honor, then to Allah belongs the honor wholly. To Him do ascend the good words; and the good deeds, lift them up, and (as for) those who plan evil deeds, they shall have a severe chastisement; and (as for) their plan, it shall perish” (35:10). Some men find honor in war, some men find honor in the field of medicine, some men find honor in public service, some men find honor in the service of Allah, but All of it comes from Allah and its reality is part of His, “all honour belongs to God” no matter where you find it. الَّذِينَ يَتَّخِذُونَ الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاءَ مِن دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَيَبْتَغُونَ عِندَهُمُ الْعِزَّةَ فَإِنَّ الْعِزَّةَ لِلَّهِ جَمِيعًا
876) From Our Wilayah: The Prophet Muhammad (saws) taught us “Women require mercy”, it is the job of men to look at women with mercy without them having to ask for it or seek it, when you lift that burden from them women will reach into the depths of heaven and bring that beauty into this world. وَقَدْ نَزَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الْكِتَابِ أَنْ إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ يُكْفَرُ بِهَا وَيُسْتَهْزَأُ بِهَا فَلَا تَقْعُدُوا مَعَهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يَخُوضُوا فِي حَدِيثٍ غَيْرِهِ إِنَّكُمْ إِذًا مِّثْلُهُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ جَامِعُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ وَالْكَافِرِينَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ جَمِيعًا
877) From Our Wilayah: “When Allah sent the angels to gather the dirt needed to create Adam (q), the reality of earth spoke to them and they could not overcome its argument, the earth is not alive but it exists in the universe and the universe manifests its reality in very life like metaphors” the reality of man is the height of what it can manifest, besides Allah’s reality. When Allah elevated us to Him in the final stages of our approach in our Wilayah, the first place our heart opened to after a very long journey, was Hell, when Jannah would not respond to us and open the doors of rizq to us in this world despite the oppression it witnessed us suffer, Hell turned towards us and had mercy, it showed us compassion, Hanun, the exact quality Allah mentions in the Qur’an that He gave to Yahya, John the Baptist (saws). This is the reality it manifested towards us and so our heart afterwards began to speak to the Angels of Hell and they became our companions in life, our work with them involved their witnessing the hell people are creating on earth so they can act out its retribution in the next life. It was soon after this we understood the Mizan/Karma upon earth had reached the Mizan of Hell and this was the spiritual reality of this world, the Prophet Muhammad (saws) and the people of Allah confirmed this and witnessed it. The devils have so much control over peoples lives they are now deciding their fate with the occult, they have their hands in every aspect of a persons life, this hell is the mirror of the first level of Hell, its reality now existed on earth so it was able to see this world. I am the first person among mankind Hell turned towards and my reality in the next life is to show its Angels what the people of this world did. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَتَّخِذُوا الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاءَ مِن دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَتُرِيدُونَ أَن تَجْعَلُوا لِلَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ سُلْطَانًا مُّبِينًا
878) From Our Wilayah: Anas b. Malik reported: “The (path to) Paradise is surrounded by hardships and the (path to) Hell-Fire is surrounded by temptations”, when the prophet Muhammad was on His night Journey Jibril took Him to visit Hell, He (saws) said He entered it but could not withstand going deeper than its first level, despite the Angels protecting Him, Understand, what we achieved is from the Sunnah of Rasul Allah (saws). Hammam b. Munabbih reported that Abu Huraira narrated to them some ahadith of Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) and one of them is this that Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Paradise and Hell fell into dispute and Hell said: I have been distinguished for accommodating (the haughty and proud in me), and Paradise said: What is the matter that the meek and the humble and the downtrodden and simple would find an abode in me? Thereupon Allah said to Paradise: You are a (means) of My Mercy. I shall show mercy through you to anyone whom I will from amongst My servants. And Allah said to the Hell: You are a (sign) of My chastisement and I shall chastise through you anyone whom I will from amongst My servants and both of you will be full (filled with creatures). And as regards the Hell it would not be full until Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, places His foot (His lowest reality) therein, and it would say: Enough, enough, enough, and it would be then full and one part (of it) will draw very close to the other one (it will constrict), Allah will not treat unjustly anyone amongst His creation, and He will create another creation for the Paradise (to accommodate it) (Muslim).
879) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Two are the types amongst the denizens of Hell (I have not seen yet), the one possessing whips like the tail of an ox and they flog people with their help (The Police). (The second one is) women who would be naked in spite of their being dressed (who wear shear or skin tight clothes), who are seduced (to wrong paths) and seduce others (to them) with their hair high like humps (with their seduction, women from among the occultists who recruit people to their ways or destroy people for their beliefs). These women would not get into Paradise and they would not perceive the odour of Paradise, although its fragrance can be perceived from such and such distance (from great distance). Abu Sa’id reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: (the force responsible for) Death would be brought on the Day of Resurrection in the form of a white-coloured ram. Abu Kuraib made this addition: Then it would be made to stand between Paradise and Hell. So far as the rest of the hadith is concerned there is perfect agreement (between the two narrators) and it would be said to the inmates of Paradise: Do you recognise this? They would raise up their necks and look towards it and say: Yes,’ it is death. Then it would be said to the inmates of Hell-Fire, do you recognize this? And they would raise up their necks and look and say: Yes, it is death. Then the command would be given to slaughter it and it will be said: O inmates of Paradise, there is an everlasting life for you and no death. And then to the inmates of the Hell-Fire it will be said: O inmates of Hell-Fire, there is an everlasting life for you and no death. Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) then recited this verse pointing with his hand to this (material) world: “And warn them, [O Muhammad], of the Day of Regret, when the matter will be concluded; and [yet], they are in [a state of] heedlessness, and they do not believe.” (xix. 39) (Muslim).
880) From The Hikmah Of Islam: ‘Iyad b. Himar reported that Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him), while delivering a sermon one day, said: Behold, my Lord commanded me that I should teach you which you do not know and which He has taught me today. (He has instructed thus): (Allah said) The property which I have conferred upon them is lawful for them. I have created My servants as one having a natural inclination to the worship of Allah but it is Satan who turns them away from the right religion and he makes unlawful (in their perception) what has been declared lawful for them and he commands them to ascribe partnership with Me, although he has no justification for that. And verily, Allah looked towards the people of the world (before Islam) and He showed hatred for the Arabs and the non-Arabs, but with the exception of some remnants from the People of the Book (Jews and Christians). And He (further) said: I have sent thee (Muhammad) in order to put you to test and put (those to test) through you. And I sent the Book to you which cannot be washed away by water (with ease), so that you may recite it while in the state of wakefulness or sleep. Verily, Allah commanded me to burn (kill) Quraish (Pagans torturing the Muslims). I said: My Lord, they would break my head (like the tearing) of bread, and Allah said: You turn them out as they turned you out, you fight against them and We shall help you in this, you should spend and you would be conferred upon. You send an army and I would send an army five times greater than that (from among the Angels). Fight against those who disobey you along (side) with those who obey you. The inmates of Paradise are three: One who wields authority and is just and fair, one who Is truthful and has been endowed with power to do good deeds. And the person who is merciful and kind hearted towards his relatives and to every pious Muslim, and one who does not stretch his hand in spite of having a large family to support. And He said: The inmates of Hell are five: the weak who lack power to (avoid evil), the (carefree) who pursue (everything irrespective of the fact that it is good or evil) and who do not have any care for their family or for their wealth. And those dishonest whose greed cannot be concealed even in the case of minor things. And the third. who betray you. morning and evening, in regard to your family and your property. He also made a mention of the miser and the liar and those who are in the habit of abusing people and using obscene and foul language (Muslim).
881) From The Hikmah Of Islam: It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah said: “When Allah created Paradise and Hell, He sent Jibril, peace be upon him, to Paradise and said: ‘Look at it and at what I have prepared for its people in it.’ He looked at it, then he came back and said: ‘By Your Glory, no one will hear of it but he will enter it.’ So He commanded that it be surrounded by hardships and said: ‘Go and look at it and at what I have prepared for its people in it.’ He looked at it and saw that it had been surrounded with hardships. He (Jibril) said: ‘By Your Glory, I fear that no one will enter it.’ He (Allah) said: ‘Go and look at the Fire and at what I have prepared for its people in it.’ So he looked at it and parts of it were piled upon other parts (Layers of gravity compounding each other). He came back and said: ‘By Your Glory, no one will enter it.’ So He commanded that it be surrounded with pleasures and said: ‘Go and look at it.’ So he looked at it and saw that it was surrounded with pleasures. He came back and said: ‘By Your Glory, I fear that no one will be saved from it and all will enter it'” Understand, these two are the ultimate realities in the universe that all realities revolve around, thus Imam Rumi (q) said Allah gives you two wings to fly one of light the other of darkness because he teaches by means of opposites, أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ “ لَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ أَرْسَلَ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ فَقَالَ انْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا وَإِلَى مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا . فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا فَرَجَعَ فَقَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ لاَ يَسْمَعُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ إِلاَّ دَخَلَهَا . فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَحُفَّتْ بِالْمَكَارِهِ فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ إِلَيْهَا فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا وَإِلَى مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ حُفَّتْ بِالْمَكَارِهِ فَقَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ لاَ يَدْخُلَهَا أَحَدٌ . قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ إِلَى النَّارِ وَإِلَى مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا . فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا فَإِذَا هِيَ يَرْكَبُ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضًا فَرَجَعَ فَقَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ لاَ يَدْخُلُهَا أَحَدٌ . فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَحُفَّتْ بِالشَّهَوَاتِ فَقَالَ ارْجِعْ فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا . فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ حُفَّتْ بِالشَّهَوَاتِ فَرَجَعَ وَقَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ لاَ يَنْجُوَ مِنْهَا أَحَدٌ إِلاَّ دَخَلَهَا ” .
882) From Our Wilayah: When a person looks at the predators of this world, the giant beasts that hunt and kill, the power He sees in them is the same as looking at the Angels, he needs to withstand the same power in himself to be able to talk to them, and the Angels come in different qualities just like the wild animals of this world. The matter starts with them and their level of intellect and wisdom, with their Jinn and what one sees in the spirits of these creatures and it is raised by degrees in both power and intellect until one reaches the highest Angels and only man is man in the universe, that is the honor Allah gave to the beasts of this world. الَّذِينَ يَتَرَبَّصُونَ بِكُمْ فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمْ فَتْحٌ مِّنَ اللَّهِ قَالُوا أَلَمْ نَكُن مَّعَكُمْ وَإِن كَانَ لِلْكَافِرِينَ نَصِيبٌ قَالُوا أَلَمْ نَسْتَحْوِذْ عَلَيْكُمْ وَنَمْنَعْكُم مِّنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَاللَّهُ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَلَن يَجْعَلَ اللَّهُ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ سَبِيلًا
883) From Our Wilayah: Wisdom is a type of knowledge that encompasses things, the lowest form of wisdom exists with the Angels closest to earth and the deepest form of wisdom exists with the Angels in the deepest depths of space as well the deepest depths of the subatomic, they are the Angels just before the Arsh, Angels higher than the Angels of the Kursi which Allah said is responsible for the existence of knowledge itself. All the Angels in the universe face away from the Arsh except for the Angels dedicated to it, their knowledge and wisdom is different from the wisdom given to man. The highest wisdom any man not a wali or prophet can reach is with the Angels of space, while the Saint and Prophet combines their wisdom along with the wisdom of the Angels of Allah’s Arsh to reach Allah’s reality. The Angels that exist before the Angels at the end of space are the Angels of Hell and before them the Angels of the space visible to us, these are the Angels that guide man by the light of the stars, because Angels use all light to help us, they are responsible for the wisdom of the wise men of this world, while the Angels of this world are responsible for the knowledge and wisdom man learns from animals. إِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يُخَادِعُونَ اللَّهَ وَهُوَ خَادِعُهُمْ وَإِذَا قَامُوا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ قَامُوا كُسَالَىٰ يُرَاءُونَ النَّاسَ وَلَا يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
884) From Our Wilayah: Ibn Arabi’s Letter To Fakr Al Deen Razi; When you read the works of Ibn Arabi (q) you are reading the words of a scientist in the modern sense of the word, when you read his works you have to understand you are reading a scientific research paper outlining the discoveries of the scientist in the language of scientists and not many can understand their language. His work Futuhat al Makiyah is exactly this, his discoveries of ghayb written in the technical language of science, not philosophy. Modern academics have deliberately lied in calling Ibn Arabi a philosopher, the great scholars of Islam rejected philosophy completely like Imam Ghazali and they called all them philosophers in spite of this; “A popular story tells us that one day the great theologian Fakhr al-Din al-Razi (d. 606/1210) decided to take the spiritual path. He thus went to the well-known Sufi master and founder of the Kubraw; order Najm al-Din Kubra (d. 618/1221), and asked to be initiated into the Way. Kubra received Razi and immediately put him into a khalwa or spiritual retreat with particular instructions on how to invoke the name of God. Razi went into the cell and undertook the rites assigned to him. After some time, the master entered the room and, with his powers of spiritual concentration, looked directly at Razi and began to extract all of his book learning from his soul. Since he could not accept that all of his knowledge be stripped away from him, Razi forced himself up and left the room” (Today this power once unique to the saints is being used by occultists to force Tabula Rasa upon people, in this way they took everything from Islam and perverted for their cause. “The master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house” thus they can never defeat Islam). “Ibn Arabi’s letter to Razi deals with the nature of aspiration and what a life of lofty aspirations entails. Since Razi was notorious for his excessive rationalism in all matters religious (a mistake since religion covers both things apparent which logic is a slave to and things invisible which logic is blind to), Ibn Arabi first attempts to pull him away from over-reliance upon reflection (fikr) (exclusive reliance on this blinds you to everything you are not able to gain from your own intellect) in understanding the true nature of things (how can your intellect see the nature of how something exists, that requires study not reflection, while inspiration is knowledge given to man by the Angels responsible for the nature of that thing, it is a shortcut to the knowledge scientific study can reach). In order to demonstrate how other the reality of things is from what the intellect affords Razi, Ibn Arabi makes a key distinction between knowledge of God’s existence (gained from books) and knowledge of God (gained from Him). The intellect can discern God’s existence, and this only by way of negation and affirmation. But knowledge of God is something quite different (it is given by Him)”. “The intellect (aql) is a case in point. It can only delimit God, confine Him, put Him in particular systems of thought, and ultimately trap Him and bind Him to its own limited perspective”. “What is required then is for one who aspires to know God to do so on God’s ‘terms”. “Ibn Arabi thus tells Razi that if he aspires to know God, he should attempt to do so in a manner that will actually take him to God such that he can witness Him, that is, through kashf or ‘unveiling’”. (Understand, everything I have been taught about the unseen I understood with my logic, but old men force their youth onto the world and unless you are a saint from birth you have to rid yourself of your self so you can understand how Allah thinks, because Heaven only works according to His rationale not yours). مُّذَبْذَبِينَ بَيْنَ ذَٰلِكَ لَا إِلَىٰ هَٰؤُلَاءِ وَلَا إِلَىٰ هَٰؤُلَاءِ وَمَن يُضْلِلِ اللَّهُ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُ سَبِيلًا
885) From Our Wilayah: Ibn Arabi’s Letter To Fakr Al Deen Razi; In the Name of God, the All-Merciful, the Compassionate. This is the letter by the master, the leader, the firmly rooted in knowledge, the unique, the verifier (muḥaqqiq), the unveiler of reality (kāshif al-ḥaqīqa), the reviver of the community and the religion, Abū ʿAbd Allāh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī b. al-ʿArabī al-Ṭāʾī al-Andalusī al-Maghribī (God sanctify his soul); to the leader, the learned, the adept, the erudite, the pride of the community and the religion, Muḥammad b. ʿUmar al-Khaṭīb al-Rāzī (God grant him peace and make Paradise his abode). Praise is for God and peace be upon His chosen servants, and upon my dear friend in God, Fakhr al-Dīn Muḥammad (God elevate his aspiration (himma) and shower His mercy and blessings upon him). Now, to proceed: Before you I praise God, other than whom there is no God. The Messenger of God (God bless him and grant him peace) said, ‘When one of you loves his brother, let him know about it.’[Tirmidhī] And I love you. God says, [those who] exhort one another to truth [Q.103:3]. I have come across some of your writings, and [have witnessed] the imaginative faculty (al-quwwa al-mutakhayyila) with which God has assisted you and the sound thinking that it evinces. When a soul seeks nourishment through its own acquisition (kasb) it does not find the sweetness of generosity (jūd/ the sweetness of things given from others) and bestowal (wahb), and is amongst those who eat from beneath themselves (closed of to themselves). But a spiritual man (rajul) is one who eats from above himself (from the heavens), as He says, Had they observed the Torah and the Gospel and that which was sent down unto them from their Lord, they would surely have received (spiritual) nourishment from above them and from beneath their feet [Q.5:66]. My friend (God grant him success) should know that the complete inheritance (al-wirātha al-kāmila) is that which is [complete] in every respect, not in some respects (it isn’t only of this world it is also heavenly), for ‘The knowers are the heirs of the prophets.’ An intelligent person (ʿāqil) should strive to be an heir in every respect and not be deficient in aspiration. My friend (God grant him success) already knows that the beauty of the human subtle reality (al-laṭīfa al-insāniyya/ Sainthood) can only be [attained] through the divine knowledge (al-maʿārif al-ilāhiyya) that it bears, while its ugliness is the opposite of this. A person with lofty aspirations (ʿālī al-himma) should not waste his life with contingent things (muḥdathāt/worldly things) and their exposition, lest his share from his Lord escape him. He should also free himself from the authority of his reflection (fikr), for reflection can only know from its own point of reference (it can only know the world it already knows and nothing that is over the horizon); but the truth that is sought after is not that.
886) From Our Wilayah: Ibn Arabi’s Letter To Fakr Al Deen Razi; (Continued) Knowledge of God is contrary to knowledge of God’s existence. For the intellect knows God insofar as He is existent and by way of negation (salb) (what he isn’t), not affirmation (ithbāt) (witnessing). This is contrary to the [view of the] majority of sound-minded people (ʿuqalāʾ) and the theologians (mutakallimīn), except our master (ustādh) Abū Ḥāmid [al Ghazli] (God sanctify his spirit), for he is with us on this issue.[‘None knows God but God.’] God (great and glorious) is too exalted to be known by the intellect’s [powers of] reflection and rational consideration (naẓar).[Allah is not limited to your IQ so how can you reach His reality with your personnel level of logic] An intelligent person should empty his heart of reflection when he wants to know God by way of witnessing (mushāhada).[Forgo one sight to gain another, not become unintelligent] The one with high aspiration should not learn this [kind of knowledge] from the world of imagination (ʿālam al-khayāl),[world here refers to the universe not your mind, in other words how the mind sees the world of spirit] which contains embodied lights (al-anwār al-mutajassada) that point to meanings beyond them (this is just the first step, once you arrive, you will talk to Angels and forgo this complexity). For imagination causes intellectual meanings (al-maʿānī al-ʿaqliyya) to descend into sensory forms (al-qawālib al-ḥissiyya),[“One of the properties of imagination is that it causes spiritual meanings to become corporealized (physical). By the same token, it also allows corporeal forms to become spiritualized”. This is because it is all subatomic particles moving between both worlds, the subatomic and the physical] just as knowledge [appears] in the form of milk,[“A reference to a ḥadīth (Bukhārī, Taʿbīr 15) in which the Prophet interprets the milk given to him in a dream (which he drinks and also gives to ʿUmar to drink) as symbolizing knowledge”] the Quran in the form of a rope,[‘rope of God’] and religion in the form of a shackle.[“a shackle seen in a dream is said to symbolize firm-footedness (thabāt) in religion”] A person with lofty aspirations should not have, as his teacher and witness, a female (muʾannath) who is given to taking from the Universal Soul (al-nafs al-kulliyya),[“Ibn ʿArabī is alluding here to his earlier point concerning what is meant by being a man or rajul. In Islamic cosmology, the Universal Soul is feminine, as it is purely passive, whereas the Intellect (ʿaql) is masculine, as it is purely active”] just as he should not be given to taking [something] from one who is, fundamentally, poor (faqīr). Whatever does not have perfection except through what is other than itself is poor. Such is the condition of everything other than God (exalted is He).[“all attributes at root belong to God “] Thus, elevate your aspiration so that you only take knowledge from God by way of unveiling (kashf)! According to the verifiers (muḥaqqiqīn),[“one who is realized in the intellectual sciences such that he is able to relate all things back to God”] there is no agent (fāʿil) but God, and for this reason they only take [knowledge] from God – however, by way of ‘knotting’ (ʿaqd),[“their understanding of the actual situation remains merely theoretical”] not unveiling. But the people of God (ahl Allāh), disdaining to subsist in the knowledge of certainty [Q.102:5], do not attain their goal except through arrival (wuṣūl) at the eye of certainty [Q.102:7].[‘the truth of certainty’ (56:95)] Know that when the people of reflection attain the furthermost goal, their reflection takes them to the state of being deaf imitators. But the matter is too exalted for it to halt at reflection! So long as there is reflection, it will be impossible for one (their intellect) to repose and be at rest. The intellect has a limit at which it halts with respect to its reflective powers, for it has the quality of receiving [only] what God bestows upon it. Therefore, an intelligent person should expose himself to the divine breaths of generosity (nafaḥāt al-jūd)[a ḥadīth, ‘Verily your Lord has breaths of His mercy in the days of your time – so expose yourselves to them’] and not remain enslaved by the shackle of his rational consideration and learning (kasb), for he is liable to doubt (shubha) because of these. (The Language of Ibn Arabi is a step by step guide to the path, for most far to detailed to follow unless they already know the inner path because they have never looked inside themselves before, it is for this reason the Prophet David (q) said “who ever knows himself knows his Lord”).
887) From Our Wilayah: The Power of Satanism comes from the power of “weirdness”, the power to unsettle you from your foundation, the foundations of your character so its devils can flow through you without resistance and begin whispering new realities to you that will destroy you. Its protection is the bond of family, the bond of everything familiar to you since birth, it is also its cure, that is why society was destroyed, along with the family structure, in order to take the world down this “weird” path to no where. The spiritual effects of plastic have more influence on peoples lives than their own parents today because the bonds of family have been so weakened. The Prophet Muhammad (saws) said “Surely Satan is like wolf to man. Just as the wolf attacks the sheep that strays away from the flock, wanders and goes to a corner, Satan attacks the person who separates himself from the (Muslim) community.” He (saws) said repeatedly “You have to follow the congregation for verily Allah will not make the largest group of Muhammad’s community agree on error”… “Shaytan is a wolf like the wolf that preys on sheep, taking the isolated and the stray among them; therefore, avoid factionalism and keep to the congregation and the collective and the masjid”…“Allah’s hand is over the group, and whoever dissents from them departs to hell”…“Allah’s hand is over the group, follow the largest group, for verily whoever dissents from them departs to hell”. The main body of Muslims follow the same orthodox madhhabs (schools of thought) that have been around from first days of Islam, in terms of Islamic demographics, of 1.5 billion Muslims, Sufi’s make up over 55% of the Muslim Ummah, Salafi’s are not even 1%, of the Sunni’s, the Hanafi legal school is about 45% of the Muslim Umma, The Shafii school is about 33%, The Maliki school about 19% and the Hanbali school is about 3% which is about the same number of people in the Arabian peninsula who are the smallest Islamic demographic. In respect to Sunni and Shia, Sunni’s are about 85-90% of the Islamic population while the Shia are about 10-15%, the term Shia literally means those who split from the main group, their extremism comes from the fact they where the ones to betray Ali (q), Al Hassan (q) and Al Hussein (q) and they were born of guilt afterwards, didn’t Satan grab this group at the start when he had them betray Ali (q), then Al Hassan (q) then Al Hussein (q). وَالْوَزْنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْحَقُّ فَمَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِينُهُ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ
888) From Our Wilayah: Ibn Arabi’s Letter To Fakr Al Deen Razi; (Continued) It has been reported to me from one of your brothers – whom I trust, and who is amongst those sincerely disposed towards you– that he saw you weeping one day, and so he and those present asked you why you were weeping. You replied, ‘A position to which I have adhered for the past thirty years has become clear to me thanks to a proof which has just dawned upon me. the [truth of the] matter is contrary to my previous position. So I cried and said to myself, “perhaps that which has occurred to me is also like the first position!”’ This, then, is what you said. It is impossible for the one who knows through the scope (martaba) of the intellect and reflection to be at rest or tranquil, especially when it comes to knowing God; and it is impossible for him to know His quiddity (māhiyya) by way of rational consideration. So, my brother, what ails you that you remain in this predicament and not enter upon the path (ṭarīq) of self-discipline (riyāḍa), inner struggle (mujāhada), and spiritual retreat (khalwa) – which have been instituted by the Messenger of God (God bless him and grant him peace) – so that you can attain what was attained by the one [A reference to Khiḍr] about whom God said, [a servant] from among Our servants whom We had granted a mercy from Us and whom We had taught knowledge from Our Presence [Q.18:65]?[“The special kind of knowledge ‘from Our Presence’ is referred to as ʿilm ladunī in Sufi texts”, knowledge about the reality of something] It is indeed the likes of you who [should] take up this noble function and majestic and lofty rank. My friend (God grant him success) should know that every existent (mawjūd) exists by virtue of a cause (sabab). That cause is temporally originated (muḥdath) like the existent thing, which has two aspects: an aspect that looks towards its cause, and an aspect that looks towards its Existentiator (mūjid), namely God (the reality of something relates to its nature, is it good or evil or something mixed and how does that relate to your fate with it, your future with it). All of the [common] people, philosophers, and others look towards the causes of existent things. But not those who are realized amongst the folk of God (ahl Allāh), such as the prophets (anbiyāʾ), the friends of God (awliyāʾ), and the angels (malāʾika) (upon whom be peace). Despite their knowledge of the causes [of existent things], they look towards the other aspect, to their Existentiator. Amongst them is one who looks to his Lord from the perspective of His cause but not from His perspective (look to the rationale of Allah and don’t cloud that with your own rationale). Thus he says, ‘My heart narrated to me from my Lord.’[Abū Yazīd Basṭāmī] But the other one, who is perfect (kāmil), says, ‘My Lord narrated to me.’[the Prophet] It is this to which our gnostic (ʿārif) companion alluded when he said, ‘You take your knowledge as traces, dead from the dead (earthly evidence to the reality of something). But we take our knowledge from the Living One who does not die.’[“A famous statement by Basṭāmī”] According to us, he whose existence is derived from other than himself is nothing. So for the gnostic, there is absolutely none to rely upon except God. Moreover, my friend should know that even though God is one, He has many different faces (wujūh) turned towards to us. Thus, be wary of the places of divine arrival (al-mawārid al-ilāhiyya) and the self-disclosures (tajalliyāt) of the faces in the sense discussed here! God’s ruling property (ḥukm) insofar as He is a Lord for you is not like His ruling property insofar as He is Guardian, nor is His ruling property insofar as He is Merciful like His ruling property insofar as He is Vengeful. Such is the case with all of the divine names (asmāʾ).[“This teaching of Ibn Arabī is intimately tied to the famous Sufi dictum, lā takrār fī l-tajallī (‘There is no repetition in self-disclosure’)”]. وَمِنْ حَيْثُ خَرَجْتَ فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَإِنَّهُ لَلْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ وَمَا اللَّهُ بِغَافِلٍ عَمَّا تَعْمَلُونَ
889) From Our Wilayah: Allah hates the race of Jinn, I heard Him say this directly. إِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ فِي الدَّرْكِ الْأَسْفَلِ مِنَ النَّارِ وَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُمْ نَصِيرًا
890) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Regarding Imam Qahtani; Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The Last Hour would not come before a person of Qahtan comes forth driving people with his stick. (Muslim, Book 41, Hadith 6954) Abu Huraira narrated that Allah’s Messenger said: ” The Hour (of Resurrection) will not come till a man from Qahtan appears, driving the people with his stick.” (Imam Bukhari narrates this hadith three times). The Prophet (saws) said “And after the tyrants (the era of tyrants ends) a man from My House will fill the earth with justice (Imam mahdi) and after him is al-Qahtani, By the One who sent me with the Truth! Not a word less.”(Tabarani, Ibn Mandah, Ibn Asakir and Na‘īm bin Hammād) Here we see the prophet (saws) mention him directly after Imam Mahdi, which is when Isa (a.s) will rule for 40 Years. This suggests he may be a governor under Isa (as), in one Hadith it says about his character “he is not less than the Mahdi”. Ka’b said: “After the Mahdi, there will be a Khalifa (Caliph) from the people of the Yemen, from Qahtan, the brother of the Mahdi in his religion, who will act like the Mahdi did…(Jalaludeen Suyuti’s Al-Urf Al-Wardi fi Akhbar AlMahdi, a part of Al-Hawi li Al-Fatawa). At-Tabarani in al-Kabir, Ibn Mandah, Abu Nu’aym and Ibn ‘Asakir narrated from Qays ibn Jabir, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah [saws] said: “There will be, after me, khulafa’. After the khulafa’ will be umara’, after the umara’ will be kings, and after the kings will be tyrants. Then there will come a man from my household who will fill the earth with justice as it was filled with tyranny. After him, the Qahtani will be made the amir, and by Him Who sent me with the Truth, he will not be lesser then him.”….”Then a man will rule after him from the people of Mudhar, who will kill the righteous people, accursed and evil. Then, after the Mudhari, the ‘Umani Qahtani will rule. He will live by the example of his brother the Mahdi, and at his hands the city of the Romans will be conquered”. From al-Walid, from Ibn Lahi’ah, from ‘Abd ar-Rahman ibn Qays as-Sadafi that he said: “The Messenger of Allah [saws] said: “The Qahtani is not lesser than the Mahdi”. From ‘Abd ar-Rahman ibn Qays ibn Jabir as-Sadafi that the Messenger of Allah [saws] said: “There will be, from my household, a man who will fill the earth with justice as it was filled with tyranny. Then, after him will be the Qahtani, and by Him Who sent me with the Truth, he is not lesser than him.” This hadith is why we think the fourth horseman is Al Qahtani, He will conquer the Captial of the European Empire, or Rome, during the time Jesus (q) is besieged by Gog and Magog, he will then attain a virus from them to kill all of them and save Jesus (saws), From Ka’b that he said: “After the Mahdi, there will be a khalifah from the people of Yemen, from Qahtan, the brother of the Mahdi in his religion, who will act as the Mahdi did. It is he who will conquer the city of the Romans and take its spoils.” From ‘Abd ar-Rahman ibn Qays as-Sadafi, from his father, from his grandfather, from the Prophet [saws] that he said: “The Qahtani is after the Mahdi. By He Who sent me with the Truth, he is not lesser than him.” إِلَّا الَّذِينَ تَابُوا وَأَصْلَحُوا وَاعْتَصَمُوا بِاللَّهِ وَأَخْلَصُوا دِينَهُمْ لِلَّهِ فَأُولَٰئِكَ مَعَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَسَوْفَ يُؤْتِ اللَّهُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا
891) From Our Wilayah: Ibn Arabi’s Letter To Fakr Al Deen Razi; (Continued) Know that the divine face, namely ‘Allāh,’ is a name for all of the names, such as Lord, the Powerful, and the Grateful.[The name of God is Allah all the other names are His qualities] The sum total of the names are like the Essence (dhāt) which brings together all of the attributes (ṣifāt) contained in It. But the name Allāh takes in all of the names, while they guard it from ever being witnessed (You witness an aspect of Allah from one of His particular qualities but you never witness the whole). Thus, you cannot witness the name Allāh in any way whatsoever. Since He addresses you through the name Allāh – as it is all-comprehensive (jāmiʿa) – consider in what manner He speaks to you, and the station (maqām) that this intimate discourse (munājāt) or witnessing demands.[how one should be positioned, from what facet/quality are they seeing Allah from] So consider which divine name is looked upon, for that is the name which addresses you or is witnessed by you.[adab is essential to this because it allows you to witness Allah more comprehensively] That name is what is expressed by the transmutation in forms (al-taḥawwul fī l-ṣūra),[“God takes on different forms in accordance with the receptivity of the individual to whom He is disclosing Himself “, forms here simply means the manner by which the self of a person is able to recognize God from its perspective] as is the case with a drowning man. When he says ‘O Allāh!,’ it means, ‘O Helper!,’ ‘O Rescuer!,’ and ‘O Deliverer!’ And when a man who is in pain says ‘O Allāh!,’ it means, ‘O Healer!,’ ‘O Curer!,’ and the like (a person calls upon Allah via the quality He is need of and hence witnesses Him from that aspect). That which I said to you about the ‘transmutation in forms’ [refers to] what (Imam) Muslim [d.261/875] has mentioned in his Ṣaḥīḥ, namely that the Creator (bāriʾ) will disclose Himself [to His servants on the day of Resurrection] but will be denied (in a form they do not recognize), and refuge will be sought from Him. So He will transmute Himself for them into a form in which they will recognize Him (they are familiar with, Allah has no form He is the originator of all forms but the senses need a direction to look at). Then they will acknowledge Him after having denied Him. This is what is meant by ‘witnessing’ in this context, as well as ‘intimate discourse’ and ‘divine addressing’ (al-mukhāṭabāt al-rabbāniyya). An intelligent person should only seek to know that through which his essence is perfected (adept with) and which will depart with him when he departs. And this is nothing but knowledge of God by way of bestowal (wahb) and witnessing. Your knowledge of medicine, for example – you only need it in a world where there is illness and sickness. When you depart to a world in which there is neither sickness nor illness, whom will you cure with that knowledge? An intelligent person does not strive [to know medicine] insofar as there is no wellbeing [in it] for him. And if he acquires [knowledge of medicine] by way of bestowal, as was the medical knowledge (ṭibb) of the prophets (upon whom be peace), he should not stop there. Rather, he should seek knowledge of God. Likewise is the case with geometry – you only need it in a world where there are surfaces (misāḥa). When you depart, you will leave it in the world appropriate to it, for the soul will leave empty-handed (sādhija), accompanied by nothing. In this way will the soul leave behind preoccupation with every science at the time of its departing to the next world (ʿālam al-ākhira).
892) From Our Wilayah: The Issue of whether the prophet (saws) saw Allah or not, for the scholars, is between what his wife Aisha (saws) said and the other companions said, Understand, when all of this occurred Aisha as still extremely young, when he passed away she was only about 18 years old, and what she understood from this complex matter was wrong and from the perspective of a child, consequently her tafsir to this verse, that it was referring to Gabriel is wrong and the tafsir given by older sahaba found in Sahih Muslim is the correct tafsir. I not only know this from my wilayah, what Allah and the Angels have taught me, but the people of Allah confirmed it saying to me the light that is in those companions words is higher than the light that is in hers because that is the truth and they have a higher place with Allah than her. There is exaggeration in Aisha’s (saws) speech because this is from her youth and this is how the young speak; It is narrated on the authority of Masruq that he said: I was resting at (the house of) ‘A’isha that she said: O Abu ‘A’isha (kunya of Masruq), there are three things, and he who affirmed even one of them fabricated the greatest lie against Allah. I asked that they were. She said: He who presumed that Muhammad (ﷺ) saw his Lord (with his ocular vision) fabricated the greatest lie against Allah. I was reclining but then sat up and said: Mother of the Faithful, wait a bit and do not be in a haste. Has not Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said:” And truly he saw him on the clear horizon” (Al-Qur’an, Surat at-Takwir, 81:23) and” he saw Him in another descent” (Al-Qur’an, Surat Najm 53:13)? She said: I am the first of this Ummah who asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about it, and he said: Verily he is Gabriel. I have never seen him in his original form in which he was created except on those two occasions (to which these verses refer); I saw him descending from the heaven and filling (the space) from the sky to the earth with the greatness of his bodily structure. She said: Have you not heard Allah saying: “Eyes comprehend Him not, but He comprehends (all) vision. and He is Subtle, and All-Aware” (Al-Qur’an, Surat al-An`am 6:103)? (She, i.e. ‘A’isha, further said): Have you not heard that, verily, Allah says: “And it is not for any human being that Allah should speak to him except by revelation or from behind a partition or that He sends a messenger to reveal, by His permission, what He wills. Indeed, He is Most High and Wise.” (Al-Qur’an, Surat ash-Shura, 42:51) She said: He who presumes that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) concealed anything from the Book of Allah fabricates the greatest lie against Allah. Allah says: “O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people.” (Al-Qur’an, Surat al-Ma’idah, 5:67). She said: He who presumes that he would inform about what was going to happen tomorrow fabricates the greatest lie against Allah. And Allah says “Say, ‘None in the heavens and earth knows the unseen except Allah , and they do not perceive when they will be resurrected.'” (Al-Qur’an, Surat an-Naml, 27:65) (Muslim). حَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ مُتَّكِئًا عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ يَا أَبَا عَائِشَةَ ثَلاَثٌ مَنْ تَكَلَّمَ بِوَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ فَقَدْ أَعْظَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الْفِرْيَةَ . قُلْتُ مَا هُنَّ قَالَتْ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا صلى الله عليه وسلم رَأَى رَبَّهُ فَقَدْ أَعْظَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الْفِرْيَةَ . قَالَ وَكُنْتُ مُتَّكِئًا فَجَلَسْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنْظِرِينِي وَلاَ تَعْجَلِينِي أَلَمْ يَقُلِ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ { وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ بِالأُفُقِ الْمُبِينِ} { وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ نَزْلَةً أُخْرَى} . فَقَالَتْ أَنَا أَوَّلُ هَذِهِ الأُمَّةِ سَأَلَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ ” إِنَّمَا هُوَ جِبْرِيلُ لَمْ أَرَهُ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ الَّتِي خُلِقَ عَلَيْهَا غَيْرَ هَاتَيْنِ الْمَرَّتَيْنِ رَأَيْتُهُ مُنْهَبِطًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ سَادًّا عِظَمُ خَلْقِهِ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ ” . فَقَالَتْ أَوَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ { لاَ تُدْرِكُهُ الأَبْصَارُ وَهُوَ يُدْرِكُ الأَبْصَارَ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ} أَوَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ { وَمَا كَانَ لِبَشَرٍ أَنْ يُكَلِّمَهُ اللَّهُ إِلاَّ وَحْيًا أَوْ مِنْ وَرَاءِ حِجَابٍ أَوْ يُرْسِلَ رَسُولاً فَيُوحِيَ بِإِذْنِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ إِنَّهُ عَلِيٌّ حَكِيمٌ} قَالَتْ وَمَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَتَمَ شَيْئًا مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَقَدْ أَعْظَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الْفِرْيَةَ وَاللَّهُ يَقُولُ { يَا أَيُّهَا الرَّسُولُ بَلِّغْ مَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَبِّكَ وَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ فَمَا بَلَّغْتَ رِسَالَتَهُ} . قَالَتْ وَمَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ يُخْبِرُ بِمَا يَكُونُ فِي غَدٍ فَقَدْ أَعْظَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الْفِرْيَةَ وَاللَّهُ يَقُولُ { قُلْ لاَ يَعْلَمُ مَنْ فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ الْغَيْبَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ} .
893) From Our Wilayah: Occultists Have no Future in the Universe; The people of Allah showed us that if they think you are going to head out into the universe and fool it like they fooled the people of this world they should think again, the creatures of the universe exist in a place higher than their devils, between man and the Angels, they see right through them better than your own devils who are much weaker than them, and they hate them deeply. The prophet Muhammad (saws) said “Occultists are the servants of Jinn” and Allah “hates their race”. وَاللَّهُ خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا وَمَا تَحْمِلُ مِنْ أُنثَىٰ وَلَا تَضَعُ إِلَّا بِعِلْمِهِ وَمَا يُعَمَّرُ مِن مُّعَمَّرٍ وَلَا يُنقَصُ مِنْ عُمُرِهِ إِلَّا فِي كِتَابٍ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ يَسِيرٌ
894) From Our Hikmah: “and thou wilt surely find that, of all people, they who say, “Behold, we are Christians,” come closest to feeling affection for those who believe [in this divine writ]: this is so because there are priests and monks among them, and because these are not given to arrogance” (5:82). The words of Allah are eternal hence this reality is eternal. لَتَجِدَنَّ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ عَدَاوَةً لِّلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا الْيَهُودَ وَالَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا وَلَتَجِدَنَّ أَقْرَبَهُم مَّوَدَّةً لِّلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّا نَصَارَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ مِنْهُمْ قِسِّيسِينَ وَرُهْبَانًا وَأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ
895) From Our Wilayah: Ibn Arabi’s Letter To Fakr Al Deen Razi; (Continued) Thus, an intelligent person should only acquire knowledge that is absolutely necessary (al-ḥāja al-ḍarūriyya) for him.[So he can focus on seeing Allah through it] Let him, then, strive to acquire that with which he will depart when he is made to depart. This is nothing other than two types of knowledge, specifically speaking: knowledge of God, and knowledge of the homesteads of the next life (mawāṭin al-ākhira)[“a synonym for maẓhar or ‘locus of manifestation”] and what is demanded by its stations (maqāmāt)[its adab] so that he may walk therein as though he would walk in his own home, thus denying absolutely nothing. For he should be one of the people of gnosis (ʿirfān), not one of the people of denial (nukrān)! These homesteads [of the next life] are homesteads of distinguishing (tamyīz), not homesteads of admixing (imtizāj), which bestow error (frivolous knowledge will misguide you). When he attains this station [of the homesteads of the next life], he will be free from being distinguished by that group [in the aforementioned ḥadīth] (He will be able to recognize His Lord in any form) who, when their Lord discloses Himself to them, will say, ‘We seek refuge in God from you! You are not our Lord. We will wait until our Lord comes to us.’ And when He comes to them in the form in which they recognize Him, they will acknowledge Him. There is no state of perplexity (ḥayra) greater than that![Being blind to your Lord] An intelligent person should discover these two [aforementioned] types of knowledge by way of self-discipline, inner struggle (mujāhada), and spiritual retreat under specific conditions (ṭarīqa mashrūṭa). I wanted to discuss, step-by-step, the spiritual retreat, its conditions, and what is disclosed in it, but the present moment (waqt) prevents me. I mean by ‘present moment’ the scholars of evil (ʿulamāʾ al-sūʾ) who deny that of which they are ignorant, and who are shackled by bigotry (taʿaṣṣub) as well as love of publicity and leadership on account of their obedience and submissiveness to God, even though they do not have faith (īmān)! This is the last part of the letter. God suffices, and praise is His – firstly and lastly, inwardly and outwardly. Prayers upon His Prophet, in gratitude and remembrance.
896) From Our Wilayah: The Reality Of Saints; Allah brings into existence His will from behind His servants,this is the reality of how the future comes into existence. I am a person who carried death in this world perfectly because of the oppression of Occultists, and because of that Allah chose to bring the death of this world through me. When the world goes to speak during this time Allah will hold the reality of its people and what they will reach through it and compare it to my perfect reality to judge justice. This is the tafsir of Ahl Allah and their words to the reality I have witnessed Allah bring into existence, we live in a time when Allah is deciding how the universe will end and why, on whose account. “For, when they come to understand what has been bestowed from on high upon this Apostle, thou canst see their eyes overflow with tears, because they recognize something of its truth; [and] they say: “O our Sustainer! We do believe; make us one, then, with all who bear witness to the truth” (5:83). وَإِذَا سَمِعُوا مَا أُنزِلَ إِلَى الرَّسُولِ تَرَىٰ أَعْيُنَهُمْ تَفِيضُ مِنَ الدَّمْعِ مِمَّا عَرَفُوا مِنَ الْحَقِّ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا آمَنَّا فَاكْتُبْنَا مَعَ الشَّاهِدِينَ
897) From Our Wilayah: The Angels of Death are the doorway between us and the unseen because the unseen exists in the darkness of space and the Angels in charge of the the depths of space govern the entire affair of the death of everything, they sit directly above the Angels of death as guides and judges. “By the (angels) who tear out (the souls of the wicked) with violence; 79:2 By those who gently draw out (the souls of the blessed); 79:3 And by those who glide along (on errands of mercy), 79:4 Then press forward as in a race, 79:5 And those who govern the event, 79:6 [HENCE, think of] the Day when a violent convulsion will convulse [the world], 79:7 to be followed by further [convulsions]!: 79:8 On that Day will [men’s] hearts be throbbing, 79:9 [and] their eyes downcast… 79:10 [And yet,] some say, “What! Are we indeed to be restored to our former state – 79:11 even though we may have become [a heap of] crumbling bones?” 79:12 [And] they add, “That, then, would be a return with loss!” 79:13 [But,] then, that [Last Hour] will be [upon them of a sudden, as if it were] but a single accusing cry – 79:14 and then, lo, they will be fully awakened [to the truth]!”. Our wilayah began in the company of the Angels of death and a threat that was upon our life and it ended with the higher Angels in charge of the darkness of space who exist beyond the Angels of Hell, the prophet (saws) taught us that nothing is alive beyond their place of existence. وَٱلنَّـٰزِعَـٰتِ غَرۡقً۬ا (١) وَٱلنَّـٰشِطَـٰتِ نَشۡطً۬ا (٢) وَٱلسَّـٰبِحَـٰتِ سَبۡحً۬ا (٣) فَٱلسَّـٰبِقَـٰتِ سَبۡقً۬ا (٤) فَٱلۡمُدَبِّرَٲتِ أَمۡرً۬ا (٥) يَوۡمَ تَرۡجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ (٦) تَتۡبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ (٧) قُلُوبٌ۬ يَوۡمَٮِٕذٍ۬ وَاجِفَةٌ (٨) أَبۡصَـٰرُهَا خَـٰشِعَةٌ۬ (٩) يَقُولُونَ أَءِنَّا لَمَرۡدُودُونَ فِى ٱلۡحَافِرَةِ (١٠) أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَـٰمً۬ا نَّخِرَةً۬ (١١) قَالُواْ تِلۡكَ إِذً۬ا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٌ۬ (١٢) فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجۡرَةٌ۬ وَٲحِدَةٌ۬ (١٣) فَإِذَا هُم بِٱلسَّاهِرَةِ
898) From Our Wilayah: Noah (saws); I prayed to Allah saying “I don’t know what Noah (saws) carried before you gave Him (q) what you gave Him (q), but I am facing the same thing”. It then came that I asked the Angels of Death to drown this world in death in the name of all the stupidity it has ever shown, Allah then revealed that this is something from the scales/mizan, from His justice. I then witnessed the Angles of death saying to the devils, who are ever pushing and instigating new evil with impunity, “do you know how many of Allah’s creatures hate this world because of what it did”, they then began their work. Allah’s Will is Fate remember what I taught you about death, “the spiritual precedes the physical”. هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰ
899) From Our Hikmah: The Jewish World Before Jesus (q); 1600-1178 BC The Hittite Empire rules the region. 1400-1000BC Pre-Monarchic Age, the time of Abraham and Joseph (saws). 1000-931 B.C The Jewish State Created, the time of David and Solomon (saws). 1000-586 BC The First Jewish Temple is built. 900-586 Bc The Kingdom of Judea is split between the Kingdom of Judea, the Philistine State and the Kingdom of Israel. 911-609 B.C The Jews are at war with the Neo Assyrian Empire. 586 B.C the Neo Babylonian Empire destroys Jerusalem. 586-538 BC The Babylonian exile of the Jews. 550-330 B.C Achaemenid Persia begins. 559-530 B.C Jews are restored under Cyrus the Great (someone Allah was pleased with). 516 B.C-70 A.D Work on the Second Temple begins. 538-330 B.C Much of the Old Testament written down and standardized. 336-323 B.C Alexander the Great establishes his empire, it is at this time the purest form of Judaism is corrupted and they begin to struggle with external cultures. 301 B.C Judea is made part of the Polemic Empire and is now part of Egypt, he was one of Alexander’s cavalry commanders who ruled this region after his death. The Hellenistic age begins among the Jews and they began to speak, dress and act Greek. Some of the dead sea scrolls are written in Greek, (51-30 B.C Cleopatra marries Marc Antony). 200 B.C Seleucid Empire takes Judea. 175-164 B.C Antiochus IV Removes religious freedom and oppresses the Jews restricting Jewish life and rituals at the temple. Jerusalem turned into a Greek city, the sabbath outlawed and Jews are forced to sacrifice pigs to Greek gods at the temple. Thousands of protesters put to death resulting in a revolt lead by the Maccabeus family. 167-135 B.C Judah Maccabee (the hammer) wins the war against the Seleucid’ freeing Judea. His brothers Jonathan and Simon ruled after him using the same nickname. It is from this point on we see the collapse of traditional Jewish society along with the knowledge and wisdom imparted to it by its prophets, the last prophet Allah had sent was some 200 years prior and Jesus would not be sent for another 200 years to a people who could scarcely understand wisdom or spirituality. 140-37 B.C Hasmonean Dynasty began by the Maccabee’s who also began to exalt themselves; Jonathan Maccabee declares himself high priest against Jewish tradition and law and the protests of the entire population. He was not from the house of David (q) a similar tradition to Islam where the prophet (saws) said only the tribe of Quraysh can rule Makkah and only they are responsible for the Hajj (Pilgrimage), a sacred law Saudi rulers are violating. 134-104 B.C John Hyrcanus the “high priest” and ruler of Judea begins conquering neighboring lands and forcibly converting people to Judaism. He conquered the Samaritan’s a Jewish tribe and destroyed their temple selling the survivors into slavery. 104-103 B.C Aristobulus declares himself King as well as High priest, beginning this tradition among the Hasmonean’s, who begin styling themselves increasingly as Hellenistic monarchs. 103 -76 B.C Alexander Jannaeus rules Judea, all Pharisees are put to death by him, crucified, for calling for a return to religious tradition, but not before all of their wives and children are killed before their eyes. 77 B.C Civil war engulfs the Hasmonaean empire, Aristobulus (66-63 B.C) wars with his brother Hyracanus II (67-66 B.C), a war which engulfs the region. 67 B.C They invite the Roman General Pompey (106-48 B.C) to mediate between them. He stops the war setting up Hyracanus II (67-40 B.C) as his puppet king. 53 B.C Maruc Licinius Craccus, Pompeys colleague loses to the Parthian empire to the North opening the opportunity to conquer Judea. The son of the dethroned Aristobulus, Antignus II Mattathius, by 40 B.C is crowned the King of Judea with Parthian support. 37-4 B.C This opened the way for Rome to invade the region and place another ruler of their own over Judea, Herod the Great, he has a close relationship with Marc Antony (83-30 BC) and Augustus Caesar (27 BC-14 AD). Herod marries into the Hasmonaean dynasty but would later kill his wife and two sons who plot against him. The Jewish Religious sects of the day are; The Sadducees (Aristocratic sect, main priestly group at the temple of Jerusalem), Pharisees (they wanted to transfer power from the temple to the home, to worship and perform rites at home) The Essenes (Hermetic, ascetic sect, responsible for the Dead Sea scrolls library, most likely began by a Jewish saint, they practiced talking to Angels directly, self-purification and lived a saintly life. The Prophet (saws) said, “Amongst the people preceding you there used to be “Muhaddathun”, saintly people who were spoken to by the Angels. The Messenger of Allah said: “Verily among the Children of Israel before your time there have been men who have been spoken to (rijalun yukallamoon, by the Angels) who were not prophets”), The Therapeutae Jewish sect, lived in Egypt. The Samaritans are an early offshoot of Judaism from 500 B.C, they were killed by the Hasmonean king John Hyrcanus 134-104 B.C. Each had their own holy mountain to worship on, Mount Zion and Mount Gerizim, upon which was the temple he destroyed. 44 A.D Herod had 10 wives and upon his death and three sons who succeeded him, ruling over sub kingdoms in Judea, Waring with each other. By 44 A.D the Romans had enough of them and made Harrods kingdom an Imperial province. A new Jewish sect appears as a result, the Zealots who were anti-Roman. 66-73 A.D The First Jewish Revolt against the Romans. 66 AD Gessius Florus a Roman Procurator robes the Temple treasury, crowds gather to protest but he has them all crucified, sparking all out anarchy in Jerusalem. 67 AD The Roman general Vespasian arrives with a 60,000 strong Roman army killing all Jewish settlements in the desert surrounding Jerusalem one by one including the Essenes. 69 AD The Siege of Jerusalem. Vespasian is made emperor of the Roman Empire; his son Titus is left in command of the siege. 70 AD The entire city is raised to the ground, the temple is destroyed its people massacred or sold into slavery. 132-135 AD The Second Jewish Revolt. The Pharisees survive all of this becoming the modern Rabbinic Judaism of today. Jesus (q) was sent to a broken Jewish people who had been at war with each other for centuries, to fulfill a prophecy, to give them a new heart and spirituality by which to reach Allah. He (q) was sent at a time when there was nothing left in order to rebuild, but He faced the Roman empire who were bent on their path. Allah waits for the human condition to change before he changes the world and Jews at this time were not strong enough, it took a further 2000 years before they reached that point; ” For each one are successive [angels] before and behind him who protect him by the decree of Allah. Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves. And when Allah intends for a people ill, there is no repelling it. And there is not for them besides Him any patron” (13:11). لَهُ مُعَقِّبَاتٌ مِّن بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ يَحْفَظُونَهُ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتَّىٰ يُغَيِّرُوا مَا بِأَنفُسِهِمْ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍ سُوءًا فَلَا مَرَدَّ لَهُ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن دُونِهِ مِن وَالٍ
900) From Our Wilayah: When ever Allah wants to teach us something in life He send the Angels to teach us about it in our sleep before we learn that lesson, sometimes we remember what the Angels showed us, one of those lessons was about the Essene’s who lived almost like Buhddist monks in isolated places to purify themselves from this world, they are the people who wrote the dead sea scrolls, their matter is exactly as they wrote they spoke to Angels and the Angels spoke to them guiding them, this was their case until their last generations when their hearts became to hard and it become increasingly difficult for their children to attain it, this is what the Angels taught us about them. The Angels showed us their manner of initiation, the Rabbis would be at the top of their holy places, they would call to specific men in their tribes spiritually using the Angels and those who were spiritually strong enough to hear and respond to them would be accepted among them. Their purity is self evident from how they lived their lives and where, in the deserts outside Jerusalem in isolated places away from society and the troubles of the empires. They concerned themselves with preserving their religion and writing it down and today we have the blessing of their work, such is the nature of the Angels and their inspiration to them. They are the people about whom the prophet (saws) said, “Amongst the people preceding you there used to be “Muhaddathun”, saintly people who were spoken to by the Angels, and, “Verily among the Children of Israel before your time there have been men who have been spoken to (rijalun yukallamoon, by the Angels) who were not prophets”, and, “Among the nation of Bani Israel who lived before you, there were men who used to be inspired with guidance (by the Angels) though they were not prophets, and if there is any of such persons amongst my followers, it is ‘Umar (the second Khalif of Islam who returned the Jews from exile back to Jerusalem) (Bukhari)”. Abu Huraira (ra) narrated Allah’s Apostle (saws) said, “Among the nations before you there used to be people who were inspired (literally spoken to, by the Angels though they were not prophets). And if there is any of such a persons amongst my followers (today), it is ‘Umar” (Muslim). The prophet (saws) wished for Umar (q) to be like the devout men of this tribe who the Angels spoke to, Umar (r.a) later became the second Khalif of Islam who would go on to conquer Jerusalem and restore the Jewish right to settle back in it. Jabir ibn Abdullah reported: The angels came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, while he was sleeping and some of them said, “He is asleep.” And some of them said, “His eyes are asleep but his heart is awake.” They said, “Verily, your companion has a parable, so present the parable for him.” Some of them said, “He is asleep.” And some of them said, “His eyes are asleep but his heart is awake.” They said, “His parable is the example of a man who built a house, set up a banquet therein, and then sent a messenger to invite people. Whoever answered the invitation would enter the house and eat of the banquet, and whoever did not accept the invitation would not enter the house nor eat of the banquet.” The angels said, “Interpret this parable for him that he might understand.” Some of them said, “He is asleep.” And some of them said, “His eyes are asleep but his heart is awake.” They said, “The house represents Paradise and the messenger is Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. Whoever obeys Muhammad has obeyed Allah, and whoever disobeys Muhammad has disobeyed Allah. Muhammad has caused distinction between the people.” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6765). عن جابر بن عبد الله جَاءَتْ مَلَائِكَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ نَائِمٌ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنَّهُ نَائِمٌ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ نَائِمَةٌ وَالْقَلْبَ يَقْظَانُ فَقَالُوا إِنَّ لِصَاحِبِكُمْ هَذَا مَثَلًا فَاضْرِبُوا لَهُ مَثَلًا فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنَّهُ نَائِمٌ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ نَائِمَةٌ وَالْقَلْبَ يَقْظَانُ فَقَالُوا مَثَلُهُ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ بَنَى دَارًا وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا مَأْدُبَةً وَبَعَثَ دَاعِيًا فَمَنْ أَجَابَ الدَّاعِيَ دَخَلَ الدَّارَ وَأَكَلَ مِنَ الْمَأْدُبَةِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُجِبْ الدَّاعِيَ لَمْ يَدْخُلِ الدَّارَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنَ الْمَأْدُبَةِ فَقَالُوا أَوِّلُوهَا لَهُ يَفْقَهْهَا فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنَّهُ نَائِمٌ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ نَائِمَةٌ وَالْقَلْبَ يَقْظَانُ فَقَالُوا فَالدَّارُ الْجَنَّةُ وَالدَّاعِي مُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَنْ أَطَاعَ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَدْ أَطَاعَ اللَّهَ وَمَنْ عَصَى مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَدْ عَصَى اللَّهَ وَمُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرْقٌ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ
901) From Our Wilayah: My intention in sharing this on my website is to make this offer permanent; Allah deals with what is real and this is how He solves problems. Allah knows who the Saudis really are, He knows they are “their” people. This is following on from our words to the Jews as a whole and note 899, Allah said to us if the Jewish people make the Suadi’s give rule of Makkah/Hajj back to the tribe of Quraish, Allah will give the Jews a light that will always be above them where ever they are in the world. Allah is speaking to the powerful men among them, don’t think this is impossible because if Allah already prepared something, we witnessed this light it will cover their entire people and stay with them, it can be done if Allah sees it can be done. Whatever the Jews think of Allah in terms of their exile, His punishment, His curse upon them this will lift all of that, this is that kind of light I have seen it and its power it is Angelic from the heart of the Angels and has depth, it is complete acceptance by Allah of them and their return home, the Jewish people will feel the sweetness of faith as a result of it. This is Allah’s original intent for the Jews and Arabs from the time of Abraham (q), that the Arabs look after the affairs of the Jews and the Jews look after the affairs of the Arabs, this is why Ishmael (q) was entered into the covenant Allah made with the Jews even before His (q) brother was born. وَإِن مِّنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلَّا لَيُؤْمِنَنَّ بِهِ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَهِيدًا
902) From Our Wilayah: The Prophecies Allah gave to the Prophets (saws) of the Jews are true, the Prophecies Allah gave to Jesus (saws) are true, the Prophecies Allah gave to the companion of Jesus (saws) John (saws) are true, the prophecies Allah gave to the Prophet Muhammad (saws) are true. It is all one narrative from Allah, what you have seen us do is weave it together. فَبِظُلْمٍ مِّنَ الَّذِينَ هَادُوا حَرَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ طَيِّبَاتٍ أُحِلَّتْ لَهُمْ وَبِصَدِّهِمْ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ كَثِيرًا
903) From Our Wilayah: The Essene lived as devout Muslims live today, they purified their environment, they purified their reality and the reality of where they lived, they purified their clothes, they purified their food and before doing anything they would invoke the name of God, all to ensure their connection with the Angels was never broken. They performed ritual purity (Wudhu and Ghusul) multiple times throughout the day. A Muslim before doing any act invokes the name of Allah by saying Bismillahi Rahmani Raheem, in the name of Allah the gracious the merciful. They lived an entirely saintly life, in the first 20 years of their people they wrote that they struggled until Allah raised among them a saintly man, and this was the beginning of this community. They spoke to Angels and received guidance from them, they also recorded some of the visions they were given. Rasul Allah (saws) didn’t want them to be forgotten so He prayed in front of his companions that His (q) closest companion Umar (q) who converted to Islam late and was catching up to rest of the community, would be like the Saints of the Essene. If you study how Umar (q) lived His life and how the Essene (saws) lived theirs you will see the Prophets (q) prayer was answered, to this day the Muslim nation strives to imitate how Umar (q) lived His life.. وَأَخْذِهِمُ الرِّبَا وَقَدْ نُهُوا عَنْهُ وَأَكْلِهِمْ أَمْوَالَ النَّاسِ بِالْبَاطِلِ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لِلْكَافِرِينَ مِنْهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا
904) From Our Wilayah: If you want to reach sainthood you must purify your world in order to purify your reality, when your reality is good enough the Angels will be able to speak to you from their reality. When you walk this path and elevate your reality from here with knowledge, wisdom experience and association eventually your reality will be substantial enough to connect with the reality of Allah directly and He will speak to you with it. In this light the prophet Muhammad (saws) described our path to Allah by saying “acting with wisdom increases your wisdom and that is the shortest path” to Allah. Understand, I have taught you the path of sainthood from the saints of the Essene because that is their reality, saintly. لَّٰكِنِ الرَّاسِخُونَ فِي الْعِلْمِ مِنْهُمْ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكَ وَمَا أُنزِلَ مِن قَبْلِكَ وَالْمُقِيمِينَ الصَّلَاةَ وَالْمُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ أُولَٰئِكَ سَنُؤْتِيهِمْ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا
905) From Our Wilayah: Regarding child marriages which the enemies of Allah are using to destroy the place of religion in society, the prophet Muhammad (saws) said “if it is done properly it is alright”, that means the spiritual conditions have to be there, if not you are doing something wrong. The laws of Islam are not enough in this case because religion is not just Laws it is spirituality as well, consider that the modern world invented adolescence, it never existed in the old world where once a child reached puberty they were considered an adult and given adult responsibilities which shaped their development into people with principles. Adolescence was invented to increase the childhood years so people could be taken advantage of by corporations, groups, government, it means people not looking at issues critically during a time when lifelong human habits are being formed in a person that will shape the rest of their life. “They” wanted to form those habits for you so you could be taken advantage of from behind them, for the rest of your life, it is the reason we no longer see men in our society, men die for their principles.إِنَّا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ كَمَا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰ نُوحٍ وَالنَّبِيِّينَ مِن بَعْدِهِ وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَالْأَسْبَاطِ وَعِيسَىٰ وَأَيُّوبَ وَيُونُسَ وَهَارُونَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ وَآتَيْنَا دَاوُودَ زَبُورًا (another of Allah’s random verses, I was asked to write this note by the people of Allah, the final word on this issue is that it was the normal form of marriage in all societies on earth through history especially Rome which the modern world tries to imitate).
906) From Our Wilayah: The Prophet (saws) said, “The Beast will come out and it will have the staff of Musa and the stamp (seal) of Sulayman. With the stamp (seal) it will brand the nose of non-Muslims and with the staff it will light up the face of the believer.” The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) said: Before the Last Hour there will be fitna (al Duhaima, September the 11th) like pieces of a dark night in which a man will be a believer in the morning and an infidel in the evening, or a believer in the evening and infidel in the morning. He who sits during them will be better than he who gets up and he who walks during them is better than he who runs. So break your bows, cut your bowstrings and strike your swords on stones. If people then come in to one of you, let him be like the better of Adam’s two sons. (Abu Dawud). Have you ever wondered why Allah will send a beast to mankind to decide who is a believer in Allah and who is a kafir while Allah told His prophet you have no power to make them believe or disbelieve, that affair is only for Allah. The answer is an eye for an eye, when a person is forced to become a kafir by occult means that try to force his heart and soul Allah responds by raising Him above those forces and places Him in command of them in order to fight what is being manipulated in himself by others. Thus, Allah made our wilayah a wilayah over kufr and iman like the beast of the earth. I am teaching you this so you learn to what extent the beast of the earth reached into the sainthood of Man, he is a saint and one of the highest with Allah this is why Allah honoured him in the Quran and made him one of his sings to man a sign that says even animals know how to reach the highest places with Him yet you people don’t. That is his achievement, coming from the world of beasts perfecting himself like a human and reaching a place with Allah where Allah places him in charge of deciding the kufr and iman of people as Allah decides it. Understand, prophet hood reaches into divinity and its stations, hence Jesus (saws) is able to raise the dead like Allah, and so there are other things that man can reach in this respect and this is one of them, Allah teaches you how to see it, hence Allah taught us how to see the hypocrites who are pretending to be people who believe, or pretending to be other than themselves. وَرُسُلًا قَدْ قَصَصْنَاهُمْ عَلَيْكَ مِن قَبْلُ وَرُسُلًا لَّمْ نَقْصُصْهُمْ عَلَيْكَ وَكَلَّمَ اللَّهُ مُوسَىٰ تَكْلِيمًا
907) From Our Wilayah: The Prophet (saws) hates the Shia, they betrayed His (q) son in law Ali (q), His grandson Al Hassan (q), His grandson al Hussein (q), to their death, they fabricated lies against His (q) companions, family, tribe and their children (q), they practice cursing all of them through history in front of Him (saws) for over a thousand years, He (saws) said “they are liars”, they are a treacherous people who cannot be trusted. Is it a wonder after all of this that at their end Allah chose for the Antichrist to emerge from among them. رُّسُلًا مُّبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنذِرِينَ لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَى اللَّهِ حُجَّةٌ بَعْدَ الرُّسُلِ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًا
908) From Our Karamat: Belief and Kufr is a spiritual affair, it is won and lost there, it is from our Karamat that I have protected Ummat al Islam and the people of Allah, those who Allah chooses from among the Jews, Christians and rest of the world from Atheism. Religion requires that the living connect with those in the spiritual, either the Mala’ikah, prophets, Saints, Allah, so their light can manifest on earth and they are able to do their work, we have done that. I have given the people of Allah the ability to call all of these people away from Atheism and they will respond to the call of the Prophets (q) and Saints (q). The prophet Muhammad (saws) said to us “we will call them and they will turn away”, Allah and His Mala’ikah are witness to what we have done. لَّٰكِنِ اللَّهُ يَشْهَدُ بِمَا أَنزَلَ إِلَيْكَ أَنزَلَهُ بِعِلْمِهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ يَشْهَدُونَ وَكَفَىٰ بِاللَّهِ شَهِيدًا
909) From Our Hikmah: If you can’t change your self for God and become a better person you can pay your way into heaven, live dangerously. إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَصَدُّوا عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ قَدْ ضَلُّوا ضَلَالًا بَعِيدًا
910) From Our Wilayah: If you are in a prison unjustly, you have the right to ask Allah how He spent everyday of your life. إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَظَلَمُوا لَمْ يَكُنِ اللَّهُ لِيَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ وَلَا لِيَهْدِيَهُمْ طَرِيقًا
911) From Our Wilayah: Allah made us witness the wilayah of the Essene Saints, He filled us with its light and power until we knew it completely, it is a complete sainthood and very powerful, the Jewish people would benefit greatly from their example and sunnah. Focus on their hearts, because until the world is purified you will not be able to purify Jerusalem, so win the battle that is within you first before Allah sends the Messiah (q) to win the greater battle with you. (In terms of spiritual lineage that the Sufi Masters will understand, I am now of their silsila like Umar (q) before me, they stood in that light so I could see them and know its taste. When you look at Umar (q) and taste His power in your heart that is exactly them (q), He (saws) took from them before me, this is what the people of Allah taught us, it was the result of the prophets (saws) prayer. Don’t be surprised the community of Allah is one and we help each other, these are the people of Allah who have hearts large enough for everyone). إِلَّا طَرِيقَ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا وَكَانَ ذَٰلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ يَسِيرًا
912) From Our Wilayah: Previously I described how Christians are on the image of John the Baptist (saws) rather than Jesus (q), and how Jesus (q) was one of the strongest prophets in character and spirituality, Understand, that likeness is like that of the Jewish Essene Saints (q) who lived in His (q) time, but at the level of Prophet hood, it is much much more elevated and perfected to its end, al hamdulillah both Umar (q) and I (q) have taken from it. يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَاءَكُمُ الرَّسُولُ بِالْحَقِّ مِن رَّبِّكُمْ فَآمِنُوا خَيْرًا لَّكُمْ وَإِن تَكْفُرُوا فَإِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا
913) From Our Wilayah: Once you enter the silsila of a saint it becomes easier to speak to them because it is a spiritual connection like a tied knot, after we entered the silsila of the Jewish Saints of the Essene it became easier for us to speak, they visited us and watched our life for a bit then I noticed a beautiful light coming from them which informed us what they wished, they admired our relationship with the Angels, which was one of friendship like having your best friend over at your house and there was the joy and laughter of comradery between you. They explained to us they had a formal relationship with the Angels and wished they developed it like us, so we prayed to Allah for them and said Insha Allah you give it to them Ya Allah, we then saw the light of our Angels extend over them and they entered it, we then sensed them speaking, laughing and befriending the Angels. When a person dies they stop developing, the human body helps the soul develop while alive, hence the living can help those who have passed away in such matters, we helped the Essene find friendship with the Angels (they helped us in our life prior against the devils) and we have helped others from the people of Allah find peace in death. Because of this Allah placed friendship between us and the Jewish Saints in this life and the next, it is something you will see on the day of Judgment, they are saints you love to see and speak to, they lived strict lives but had kind hearts that valued wisdom. يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ لَا تَغْلُوا فِي دِينِكُمْ وَلَا تَقُولُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ إِلَّا الْحَقَّ إِنَّمَا الْمَسِيحُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتُهُ أَلْقَاهَا إِلَىٰ مَرْيَمَ وَرُوحٌ مِّنْهُ فَآمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرُسُلِهِ وَلَا تَقُولُوا ثَلَاثَةٌ انتَهُوا خَيْرًا لَّكُمْ إِنَّمَا اللَّهُ إِلَٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ سُبْحَانَهُ أَن يَكُونَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَكَفَىٰ بِاللَّهِ وَكِيلًا
914) From Our Wilayah: There is a question whether the Essene saints where celibate, they were not, they answered this for us, you can also know a soul that knows marriage from one that does not and they clearly knew marriage they had the taste of its wisdom upon them. لَّن يَسْتَنكِفَ الْمَسِيحُ أَن يَكُونَ عَبْدًا لِّلَّهِ وَلَا الْمَلَائِكَةُ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ وَمَن يَسْتَنكِفْ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهِ وَيَسْتَكْبِرْ فَسَيَحْشُرُهُمْ إِلَيْهِ جَمِيعًا
915) From Our Wilayah: “The Teacher of Righteousness (in Hebrew: מורה הצדק Moreh ha-Tzedek) is a figure found in some of the Dead Sea Scrolls at Qumran. This document speaks briefly of the origins of the Essene sect, 390 years after the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, after 20 years of “groping” blindly for the way. “God… raised for them a Teacher of Righteousness to guide them in the way of His heart”, this is exactly our work here to guide you in the ways of Allah’s heart. “Then, as for those who believed and did good works, unto them will He pay their wages in full, adding unto them of His bounty; and as for those who were scornful and proud, them will He punish with a painful doom. And they will not find for them, against Allah, any protecting friend or helper” (4:173) فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ فَيُوَفِّيهِمْ أُجُورَهُمْ وَيَزِيدُهُم مِّن فَضْلِهِ وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ اسْتَنكَفُوا وَاسْتَكْبَرُوا فَيُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا وَلَا يَجِدُونَ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ اللَّهِ وَلِيًّا وَلَا نَصِيرًا
916) From Our Wilayah: Honor is sought after in battle because after committing the acts of war it is the act that rises to the highest heaven to give in death what you saw in man, enemy or friend, it is your shield against horror and your communion with Allah. “O mankind! Now hath a proof from your Lord come unto you, and We have sent down unto you a clear light”; يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَاءَكُم بُرْهَانٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَأَنزَلْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ نُورًا مُّبِينًا
917) From Our Wilayah: Fun With The Angels; Often before we meet someone in life or walk into a situation the Angels while asleep will show us what is going to happen, sometimes years in advance in order to prepare for it. One of the lower Angels who took to this on our behalf began showing us event after event that were not consequential enough to warrant this. One day this Angel showed us something that would occur, he took us to a place to see a women and witness the event. The higher Angels saw how often this Angel was doing this and to make a point to him they took us to the exact place of the meeting and while standing next him he said to us in a voice the other Angel would hear as he walked in with us, “there you are with the other Angel walking in to see the women”, it makes no difference what perspective you see it from even if you are looking at yourself. I was standing with one Angel watching my self walk in with another Angel so that Angel would understand how pointless that was, then the higher Angel said “we can get creative like this if you want” (and make you confused with time). فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَاعْتَصَمُوا بِهِ فَسَيُدْخِلُهُمْ فِي رَحْمَةٍ مِّنْهُ وَفَضْلٍ وَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَيْهِ صِرَاطًا مُّسْتَقِيمًا (if you are confused, that wasn’t time travel, the universe in the present at a subatomic level prepares where the universe is going to evolve to “physically” or “materially” in the future, Angels see this with clarity humans glimpse it in dreams. If you want to get confused the first Angel saw the future of me and the second Angel because they are both spiritual creatures and heard Him).
918) From Our Wilayah: Everyone has both darkness and light in them, when Allah looks at a person He looks at how much light they can carry and that is His scales. Allah doesn’t look at how much darkness there is to judge you in life but rather the absence of light because that darkness could be from anywhere for any reason, while the absence of light tells the rest of the story. So despite the darkness in your life work to carry as much light as possible because people can go to Allah with a lot of darkness but they have one act of light with them that is heavy and it saves them entirely. يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلَالَةِ إِنِ امْرُؤٌ هَلَكَ لَيْسَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ وَلَهُ أُخْتٌ فَلَهَا نِصْفُ مَا تَرَكَ وَهُوَ يَرِثُهَا إِن لَّمْ يَكُن لَّهَا وَلَدٌ فَإِن كَانَتَا اثْنَتَيْنِ فَلَهُمَا الثُّلُثَانِ مِمَّا تَرَكَ وَإِن كَانُوا إِخْوَةً رِّجَالًا وَنِسَاءً فَلِلذَّكَرِ مِثْلُ حَظِّ الْأُنثَيَيْنِ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ أَن تَضِلُّوا وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ
919) From Our Wilayah: Vulgarity destroys the power of a women, it destroys her spirituality, it destroys her ability to stand up to men, it destroys her ability to look them in the eyes with the reality of issues that affect them. If a women envies the vulgarity of men and sees it as a power then she is placing herself beneath low men and lowering her reality, in the end you won’t even realize what the issues are any longer or appreciate them. People used to understand such things and live by them, they used to see the consequences of actions, just because their is a movement attempting to normalize everything wrong that has not removed the consequences of those things in the universe, Karma is the universe reacting to you not peoples opinions, so it doesn’t matter how opinions change the way the universe is wired does not change. People used to avoid vulgarity because of what it did to people, many women who fought for women’s rights left the feminist movement after it was sexualised to sell pornography, that includes it’s leaders, it was because they understood the reality of sexualising women it turned them into products and stripped them of their qualities and femininity. This is why the standards of women today can not match the standards of their mothers or grandmothers, today because women no longer care they are more abused than ever before in history, they have lowered their reality as a result of their new beliefs, not elevated it. It all starts with steps like making vulgarity beneath you, maybe when you realize that is the truth you will see how much men have fooled women with women that work for them. Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: “There are two are the types amongst the denizens of Hell (I have not seen yet), the ones possessing whips like the tail of an ox by which they flog people with them (The Police). (The second is) women who would be naked in spite of their being dressed (who use their bodies, who wear shear or tight clothes), who are seduced (to wrong paths) and seduce others (to them) with their hair high like humps (with their seduction, they wear large hair do’s, the feminists who hijacked the feminist movement and sexualised it). These women will not get into Paradise and they will not be allowed to even perceive its odour, even though its fragrance can be perceived from such and such (a long) distance away”. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَوْفُوا بِالْعُقُودِ أُحِلَّتْ لَكُم بَهِيمَةُ الْأَنْعَامِ إِلَّا مَا يُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْكُمْ غَيْرَ مُحِلِّي الصَّيْدِ وَأَنتُمْ حُرُمٌ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَحْكُمُ مَا يُرِيدُ
920) From Our Wilayah: People used to understand qualities and consequences from animals, a cow is animal that mindlessly grazes, a sheep is an animal that mindlessly follows and a dog is a low creature because it obeys any master, hence it betrays. A bird is fickle because it reacts to everything while a pig is vulgar because it eats indiscriminately. Translate these to humans and learn the consequences to your actions from them, and remember Jesus (saws) taught you are what you eat. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تُحِلُّوا شَعَائِرَ اللَّهِ وَلَا الشَّهْرَ الْحَرَامَ وَلَا الْهَدْيَ وَلَا الْقَلَائِدَ وَلَا آمِّينَ الْبَيْتَ الْحَرَامَ يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِّن رَّبِّهِمْ وَرِضْوَانًا وَإِذَا حَلَلْتُمْ فَاصْطَادُوا وَلَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَآنُ قَوْمٍ أَن صَدُّوكُمْ عَنِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ أَن تَعْتَدُوا وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ
921) From Our Wilayah: The proper diet is mainly vegetarian with meat on occasion through the week or month, while all seafood is welcome because water purifies spiritually. If you want the best health physically, spiritually and mentally then fast two days of the week, Monday and Thursday, fasting is a detox for every aspect of the body and medically the healthiest thing you can do for it, it resets your taste buds allowing you to once again enjoy things you have lost the taste for, remember the best food on earth for a man starving in the desert is bread, this is all based on how our physiology works. حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَيْتَةُ وَالدَّمُ وَلَحْمُ الْخِنزِيرِ وَمَا أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ بِهِ وَالْمُنْخَنِقَةُ وَالْمَوْقُوذَةُ وَالْمُتَرَدِّيَةُ وَالنَّطِيحَةُ وَمَا أَكَلَ السَّبُعُ إِلَّا مَا ذَكَّيْتُمْ وَمَا ذُبِحَ عَلَى النُّصُبِ وَأَن تَسْتَقْسِمُوا بِالْأَزْلَامِ ذَٰلِكُمْ فِسْقٌ الْيَوْمَ يَئِسَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِن دِينِكُمْ فَلَا تَخْشَوْهُمْ وَاخْشَوْنِ الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الْإِسْلَامَ دِينًا فَمَنِ اضْطُرَّ فِي مَخْمَصَةٍ غَيْرَ مُتَجَانِفٍ لِّإِثْمٍ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
922) From Our Wilayah: If said to you do you want to see a “dog” turn into a “cow”, it means you are going to see a man who constantly betrays people become a slave to his appetites and mindlessly satisfies them, until he lowers himself completely and mindlessly grazes upon them maliciously at the expense of others. This is how the ancient and pagan world spoke and the extent of their understanding, you sometimes see this understanding in their statues, half men half animals or an amalgamation of animal parts, later generations who lost the wisdom of their elders became literalists and took the metaphors literally and worshiped them, the Mala’ikah showed us this reality of the Ancient world, we witnessed it in Babylon. يَسْأَلُونَكَ مَاذَا أُحِلَّ لَهُمْ قُلْ أُحِلَّ لَكُمُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ وَمَا عَلَّمْتُم مِّنَ الْجَوَارِحِ مُكَلِّبِينَ تُعَلِّمُونَهُنَّ مِمَّا عَلَّمَكُمُ اللَّهُ فَكُلُوا مِمَّا أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَرِيعُ الْحِسَابِ
923) From Our Hikmah: You don’t have to be perfect with your actions, you just don’t have to be intentional, we are not perfect in such ways yet Allah considers us one of His most perfected Saints, so Understand, judgment is what Allah makes of it not the world. الْيَوْمَ أُحِلَّ لَكُمُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ وَطَعَامُ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ حِلٌّ لَّكُمْ وَطَعَامُكُمْ حِلٌّ لَّهُمْ وَالْمُحْصَنَاتُ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَالْمُحْصَنَاتُ مِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ إِذَا آتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ أُجُورَهُنَّ مُحْصِنِينَ غَيْرَ مُسَافِحِينَ وَلَا مُتَّخِذِي أَخْدَانٍ وَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِالْإِيمَانِ فَقَدْ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُ وَهُوَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ
924) From Our Hikmah: Vegetarianism; You can live a vegetarian lifestyle but it is impermissible to declare meat impermissible to eat because what is permissible and impermissible is for Allah alone. Killing of animals cannot be equated to murder or human suffering because animals do not carry the same reality as man, their reality and perspective is one of an animal and limited to that, so no the suffering of animals is not the same as the suffering of humans even though they do feel pain and cruelty is a crime punishable by Allah, killing of animals as humanly as possible its magnitude and scope is vastly less than murder. This is what the Prophet Muhammad (saws) taught us directly when we asked him this exact question. Understand, with Allah you cannot even kill one animal in front of another because Allah will count it as killing that animal twice, they do feel fear and that is suffering. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا قُمْتُمْ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَاغْسِلُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ إِلَى الْمَرَافِقِ وَامْسَحُوا بِرُءُوسِكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ وَإِن كُنتُمْ جُنُبًا فَاطَّهَّرُوا وَإِن كُنتُم مَّرْضَىٰ أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ أَوْ جَاءَ أَحَدٌ مِّنكُم مِّنَ الْغَائِطِ أَوْ لَامَسْتُمُ النِّسَاءَ فَلَمْ تَجِدُوا مَاءً فَتَيَمَّمُوا صَعِيدًا طَيِّبًا فَامْسَحُوا بِوُجُوهِكُمْ وَأَيْدِيكُم مِّنْهُ مَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيَجْعَلَ عَلَيْكُم مِّنْ حَرَجٍ وَلَٰكِن يُرِيدُ لِيُطَهِّرَكُمْ وَلِيُتِمَّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَيْكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ
925) From Our Wilayah: Allah created the Jinn so they can move man to action, the Jinn need to be educated, mature and balanced in order to know what to move man to, but the occult wars of the last century has ruined their world and them entirely. وَاذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَمِيثَاقَهُ الَّذِي وَاثَقَكُم بِهِ إِذْ قُلْتُمْ سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُورِ
926) From Our Wilayah: The Jinn came to us and posed a question to the leaders of this world, “did you deliberately set up a world where business is a trap for humanity”?. This is one of the verses Allah often inspires us with in relation to what we are writing, it refers to the Jinn who asked the question “O ye who believe! Be steadfast witnesses for Allah in equity, and let not hatred of any people seduce you that ye deal not justly. Deal justly, that is nearer to your duty. Observe your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is Informed of what ye do” (5:8). يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا كُونُوا قَوَّامِينَ لِلَّهِ شُهَدَاءَ بِالْقِسْطِ وَلَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَآنُ قَوْمٍ عَلَىٰ أَلَّا تَعْدِلُوا اعْدِلُوا هُوَ أَقْرَبُ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
927) From Our Wilayah: R.E Note 901; If the Jewish people can get past the Arab Jewish struggle which is against Islam, and look at the spirituality of what Allah put in front of them they will see how powerful it is. Allah is asking them to fix the rights of Pilgrimage so it can be performed properly, the Hajj is for Allah alone not for the sake of anything else. This means every person who subsequently performs Hajj afterwards the Jewish people will have the reward for that person performing it, that is, each person each year until Qiyamah. Allah is asking you to purify that ritual so He can purify you in turn. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever institutes a good practice in Islam will have its reward and the reward of whoever acts upon it (afterwards) without diminishing their rewards in the slightest (Allah does not split the blessing He duplicates it). Whoever institutes an evil practice in Islam will have its sin and the sin of those who act upon it without diminishing their sins in the slightest” (Muslim). “Allah hath promised those who believe and do good works: Theirs will be forgiveness and immense reward”. وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَأَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ
928) From Our Wilayaha: This phrase is proof of the Sainthood of the Essene, only Saints and Prophets know its reality “God… raised for them a Teacher of Righteousness to guide them in the way of His heart”. For there to be no difference between your heart and the Heart of Allah is something immense that Humans can not carry in fullness, but they can reach it, those who attain it require Mercy from Allah, just as man should look at his wife with Mercy, this is why Allah called all of His prophets a mercy from Him. “… Say (O Muhammad): Lo! the guidance is Allah’s Guidance – that anyone is given the like of that which was given unto you (prophet hood) or that they may argue with you in the presence of their Lord. Say (O Muhammad): Lo! the bounty (prophet hood) is in Allah’s hand. He bestoweth it on whom He will. Allah is All-Embracing, All-Knowing. He selecteth for His mercy (prophet hood) whom He will. Allah is of Infinite Bounty” (3″73-74). The same way man should look at his wife with mercy Allah said the following words “Say: Unto whom belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth? Say: Unto Allah. He hath prescribed for Himself (to look upon you with) mercy, that He may bring you all together to the Day of Resurrection whereof there is no doubt. Those who ruin their souls will not believe” (6:12). “Remember the Mercy of your Lord His servant Zakariya, When he called his Lord a call in secret” (19:2-3). “So they found one of Our servants, on whom We had bestowed Mercy from Ourselves and whom We had taught knowledge from Our own Presence” (18:65). “And, out of Our Mercy, We gave made his brother Aaron, a prophet” (19:53). “Said [Noah]: “O my people! What do you think? If [it be true] that I am taking my stand (against you) on a clear evidence from my~ Sustainer, who has vouchsafed unto me mercy (Prophet hood) from Himself – [a revelation] to which you have remained blind-: [if this be true,] can we force it on you even though it be hateful to you?” (11:28). “He (Salih) said: O my people! Bethink you: if I am (acting) on clear proof from my Lord and there hath come unto me a mercy (prophet hood) from Him, who will save me from Allah if I disobey Him? Ye would add to me naught save perdition” (11:63). وَلَا تُؤْمِنُوا إِلَّا لِمَن تَبِعَ دِينَكُمْ قُلْ إِنَّ الْهُدَىٰ هُدَى اللَّهِ أَن يُؤْتَىٰ أَحَدٌ مِّثْلَ مَا أُوتِيتُمْ أَوْ يُحَاجُّوكُمْ عِندَ رَبِّكُمْ قُلْ إِنَّ الْفَضْلَ بِيَدِ اللَّهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَن يَشَاءُ وَاللَّهُ وَاسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ
929) From Our Hikmah: Allah looks at man with the same mercy a man looks at his wife, this is the reality, the hearts of pigeons is larger than their intellect thus you sense kindness, gentleness and love from them like a powerful force, this is the reality of inspiration from Allah to man, the reality of sainthood and prophet hood (Qala Rasul Allah (saws)). وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا أُولَٰئِكَ أَصْحَابُ الْجَحِيمِ
930) From Our Wilayah: Arab Freemasons, Salafi’s, Isma’ili’s, and many more similar groups are what the prophet (saws) called Khawarij, the dogs of Hell. Scholars wrongly thought this group was hereditary or based on ideology, in every count they where wrong, rather the Khawarij through history were the group of Jinn descendant from the original group, when one generation of people they incite dies they raise up another group of people after them upon their evil, this will continue until the Dajjal himself appears among the last of them. Ibn ‘Umar said, “I heard Allah’s messenger (مَّلَسَو ِهْيَلَع ُاهلل ىَّلَص) say, ‘Every time a new generation of them rises, they will then disappear,’ more than twenty times (this will occur through history) and then said: حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ فِي عِرَاضِهِمْ الدَّجَّالُ “Until the Anti-Christ finally appears among them.” Ibn Mājah recorded a Ḥadīth in which Abū Umāmah said: شَرُّ قَتْلَى قُتِلُوا تَحْتَ أَدِيمِ السَّمَاءِ وَخَيْرُ قَتِيلٍ مَنْ قَتَلُوا كِلَابُ أَهْلِ النَّارِ قَدْ كَانَ هَؤُلَاءِ مُسْلِمِنيَ فَصَارُوا كُفَّارًا “(They are) the worst people killed under the sky, and the best people killed are those whom they kill (the Saints, the Khawarij today hunt down the Saints for their occultists masters, they are prophesied in the Bible and Torah because of this). They are the dogs of Hell. These people used to be Muslims but they became disbelievers.” I (Abū Ghālib, one of the narrators) asked, “Abū Umāmah, is this something only you yourself are saying?” He replied, “No, rather I heard it from the messenger of Allah.” Ibn Mājah recorded a Ḥadīth from Ibn ‘Umar (اَمُهْنَع ُاهلل َيِضَر) that the messenger of Allah :said (صَلَّى اهللُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم) يَنْشَأُ نَشْءٌ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ ال يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ كُلَّمَا خَرَجَ قَرْنٌ قُطِعَ “There will arise a group of people who will recite the Quran but it will not reach beyond their throats (they will not believe it, they are pretenders). Every time a new generation of them rises, they will then disappear.” Aḥmad, Muslim, and Ibn Mājah recorded a Ḥadīth from Abū Dharr who narrated that: said (صَلَّى اهللُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم) Allah’s messenger إِنَّ بَعْدِي مِنْ أُمَّتِي أَوْ سَيَكُونُ بَعْدِي مِنْ أُمَّتِي قَوْمٌ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ ال يُجَاوِزُ حَالقِيمَهُمْ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنْ الدِّينِ كَمَا يَخْرُجُ السَّهْمُ مِنْ الرَّمِيَّةِ ثُمَّ ال يَعُودُونَ فِيهِ هُمْ شَرُّ الْخَلْقِ وَالْخَلِيقَةِ “There will definitely be a people after me from my nation who recite the Quran yet it will not even reach beyond their throats (they will tell you what you want to hear). They will pass through the religion as an arrow passes through a target (their faith wont last but a moment), then they will not return back to it. They are the worst of people, the worst of all creatures.” When ‘Alī made a peace agreement regarding with Mu’āwiyah, they then declared ‘Ali a disbeliever and revolted against him, so he fought them, this is the origin of the Shia cult. “After ‘Uthman was killed, they fought alongside ‘Ali. They believed ‘Uthmān was a disbeliever and whoever followed him. They considered ‘Ali’s leadership to be legitimate and considered anyone who fought against him to be disbelievers (extremist hypocrites) – those who fought him during the Battle of the Camel when their leaders were Ṭalḥah and al-Zubayr”. The word Khawarij comes from the Arabic root verb: َجَرَخ – meaning to exit or rebel against. If you would like a spiritual lineage from the first Khawarij to the last here it is, but it is not limited to this; the Ismai’lis turned to the occult, began the Hashashin (Assassin) sect, the founder of the Salfi cult was raised among them, He became a Freemason and later the leader of all Freemasons in Egypt founding most of their Arab lodges, today Arab Freemasons have their origin with Him, modern Iran the traditional heartland of the Khawarij where the Antichrist will emerge is an Iranian Shia Freemason government, one only need look at their symbolism to see this. The Khawarij its reality is that it is a spiritual infection, the Dajjaal will be given permission to come out at the end, after the Muslims conquer Constantinople, at first he will appear in Asbahaan in Iran, in an area called Al-Yahoodiyyah (the jewish area). 70,000 Jews from its inhabitants will help him; they will have on them weapons and Teejaan, which are long green robes. Also, 70,000 Tartars (Turks and people from Southern Russia) as well as some people from Khurasaan (Iran, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan) will support him (today its people are being prepared for this, recently the body of the founder of the Salafi cult was taken to Afghanistan so its people can begin venerating him and his beliefs). He will first appear as a leader fighting for people; then he will claim prophet hood, then he will claim divinity. Abu Bakr As-Siddiq said: “The Messenger of Allah (saws) narrated to us, saying: ‘The Dajjal shall emerge from a land in the east called Khurasan. He is followed by a people whom appear as if their faces are shields coated with leather (people of Turkish origin). ‘” Anas said: The Prophet of Allah said: “The Dajjal will come forth from a Jewish woman of Esfahan (Iran, come forth here is not literal), followed by seventy thousand Jews wearing Persian shawls.” Aisha said The Prophet said: “He will come forth from a Jewish woman of Esfahan (Iran, if this originated from Aisha everything she heard from the prophet was at a young age and she did not understand the sense some words where meant, because its literalism is isolated among ahadith. The Bible itself affirms He is alive and manipulating empires)“. Abu Huraira said that The Prophet said: “The Dajjaal will go down to Khuz (a province in eastern Iran) and Kerman (another region in Iran) with seventy thousand (soldiers) whose faces look like flattened shields (the Tartars).” (Musnad Ahmad). Abu Saeed Al-Khudri said that the Prophet said: “The Dajjaal will be followed by seventy thousand from my Umma (nation of Muslims) wearing Al-Sijan (a type of hood or turbans, associated with Sijistan, known today as Sistan, in Iran).” (Al-Baghawi and Abd-Al-Razzaq). Anas bin Malik said that the Prophet said “Seventy thousands of the Jews of Isfahan (a city in Iran) will follow the Dajjaal, wearing Tayalisa (a type of hood worn by the Jews, it resembles the Saudi hood).” (Sahih Muslim). Mohammad bin Musab said that the Prophet (saws) said: “Seventy thousand from the Jews of Isfahan (a city in Iran) wearing Al-Tijan (turbans) will come out with the Dajjaal.” (Musnad Ahmad and Tabarani). This is the infection of the Khawarij it is not limited to sects, cults or religion, Umar said, “I heard Allah’s messenger (مَّلَسَو ِهْيَلَع ُاهلل ىَّلَص) say, ‘Every time a new generation of them rises, they will then disappear (from history),’ more than twenty times (this will occur) and then he said: حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ فِي عِرَاضِهِمْ الدَّجَّالُ “Until the Anti-Christ finally appears among them”. يَخْتَصُّ بِرَحْمَتِهِ مَن يَشَاءُ وَاللَّهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِيمِ
931) From Our Wilayah: When we began writting about the Dajjal many years ago Rasul Allah (saws) reminded me of how some years before that He (saws) said I would say these things, and it will race ahead of everyone spiritually and show the reality of the people of the Dajjal in the world (Our work on the Occult and the Khawarij before anyone understood the nature of these people, “they are the servants of Jinn” who “worship Kufr”), He (saws) also said people will not find another person who will be able to complete these words (descriptions) against him, we began this work long before we surpassed him. (Secrets Of The Dajjaal). وَمِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ مَنْ إِن تَأْمَنْهُ بِقِنطَارٍ يُؤَدِّهِ إِلَيْكَ وَمِنْهُم مَّنْ إِن تَأْمَنْهُ بِدِينَارٍ لَّا يُؤَدِّهِ إِلَيْكَ إِلَّا مَا دُمْتَ عَلَيْهِ قَائِمًا ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا لَيْسَ عَلَيْنَا فِي الْأُمِّيِّينَ سَبِيلٌ وَيَقُولُونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الْكَذِبَ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ
932) From Our Wilayah: A Lesson In Sainthood; Abu Bakrah said, “The Prophet said, “The Dajjal’s parents will remain childless for thirty years, then a one-eyed child will be born to them. He will be very bad and will cause a great deal of trouble. When he sleeps, his eyes will be closed but his heart (or mind) will still be active.’ Then he described his parents: ‘His father will be a tall and thick man, with a long nose like a beak; his mother will be a huge, heavy-breasted woman.’ Abu Bakrah said, “We heard that a child had been born to some of the Jews in Madina. Al-Zubayr Ibn al-Awam and I went see his parents and found that they matched the description given by the Prophet. We saw the boy lying in the sun, covered with a blanket, murmuring to himself. We asked his parents about him, and they said, ‘We remained childless for thirty years, then this one-eyed boy was born to us. He is very bad and causes a great deal of trouble. When we went out, we passed the boy. He asked us, ‘What were you doing?’ We said, ‘Did you hear us?. He said, ‘Yes; when I sleep, my eyes are closed but my heart (mind) is still active. That boy was Ibn Sayyad.” (Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi; this Hadith is not very strong, its chain of narrators is not reliable). When you read this you sense there is something grey with the wrods, something not perfect, its light/ taste/ feeling is wrong somehow, this is because the narrators where either deficient in character or were narrating wrong information, these are the reasons why the light of something may not be pure. A saint sees this, people sense it but when a saint has clarity he knows it from the light from from the words. Contrast this to any narration in Bukhari and almost everything there is pure light from the best of people with the strongest light. So what is wrong with the above hadith, to begin the prophet said “the Dajjal parents”, everyone assumes this is the main Dajjal, but the prophet said there will more than 30 of them before He emerges, so the assumption this hadith about the Antichrist is wrong, the term Dajjal simply means one who covers reality with lies. Hence this narration is entirely about Ibn Sayyad from start to finish, the Antichrist was not born one eyed he will be attacked and maymed in the future and become one eyed. Ibn Sayyad was someone possessed by Jinn in his youth but as He matured became free of them and eventually repented of everything, became a Muslim and went on Hajj, this was accepted of Him. Thus the confusion about the Dajjal being born in the future to a Jewish women while every narration says he is from the past. بَلَىٰ مَنْ أَوْفَىٰ بِعَهْدِهِ وَاتَّقَىٰ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُتَّقِينَ
933) From Our Hikmah: Women are somewhat like birds, they don’t like to see you’ve seen it, but if it gets to much for them they want you to comfort them and take it away. إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌ
934) From Our Wilayah: The Intellect An Analogy; If you understand what reductionism is then you can understand where the intellect begins and where it takes you. By analogy, in terms of reductionism if the intellect starts 1 and ends at 10, man begins this journey at 5 and ends at 10 because he can quickly gather in himself the nature of something to understand it. Jinn begin at 3 and end at 6 because they start in a more fundamental part of the universe than man and although they can see the building blocks of ideas they can’t formulate the proper picture because they are missing all the information that comes from existing physically. While Angels start at 1 and depending on where they are in the Angelic hierarchy end at 7, like Jinn they start at a fundamental place in the intellect, its absolute beginning, but they cannot complete the picture because they are also lacking all the information that comes from physical existence. Thus man is unique and the only creature that can complete the picture of Allah in himself. “Behold, those who barter away their bond with God and their own pledges for a trifling gain – they shall not partake in the blessings of the life to come; and God will neither speak unto them nor look upon them on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He cleanse them of their sins; and grievous suffering awaits them” (one of the verse Allah inspires us with, it speaks to a specific group of people). إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَشْتَرُونَ بِعَهْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَيْمَانِهِمْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا أُولَٰئِكَ لَا خَلَاقَ لَهُمْ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَلَا يُكَلِّمُهُمُ اللَّهُ وَلَا يَنظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَلَا يُزَكِّيهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
935) From Our Karamat: The Jinn is the only creature dumb enough to say I don’t need parts of my brain, and the only creature dumb enough to say it for you. وَإِنَّ مِنْهُمْ لَفَرِيقًا يَلْوُونَ أَلْسِنَتَهُم بِالْكِتَابِ لِتَحْسَبُوهُ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ وَمَا هُوَ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ وَيَقُولُونَ هُوَ مِنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ وَمَا هُوَ مِنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ وَيَقُولُونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الْكَذِبَ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ
936) From Our Wilayaha: Man and Animals An Analogy; The difference between man and animals is that Allah placed on man restrictions of behavior to direct his nature to higher realities by refraining from lower ones, because that is where Allah is. While animals display animalistic behavior in both aggression and sexuality which can be classified in many ways in the world of man, but Allah has removed responsibility for them in regards to it so they are fine displaying it, to an extent, while man is not. Allah will still punish animals for intentional cruelty they show to one another and you will see this on the day of judgment until every single act of cruelty among them is accounted for, this is what Rasul Allah (saws) taught us. “It is not conceivable that a human being unto whom God had granted revelation, and sound judgment, and prophethood, should thereafter have said unto people, “Worship me beside God”; but rather [did he exhort them], “Become men of God by spreading the knowledge of the divine writ, and by your own deep study [thereof].” مَا كَانَ لِبَشَرٍ أَن يُؤْتِيَهُ اللَّهُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحُكْمَ وَالنُّبُوَّةَ ثُمَّ يَقُولَ لِلنَّاسِ كُونُوا عِبَادًا لِّي مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ وَلَٰكِن كُونُوا رَبَّانِيِّينَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تُعَلِّمُونَ الْكِتَابَ وَبِمَا كُنتُمْ تَدْرُسُونَ
937) From Our Wilayah: When a Prophet nears the end of His journey with Allah, He reaches into the qualities of Allah so that in qualities He becomes like Allah, one only need to read the names of the prophet Muhammad (saws) to see this, it is something well understood by the scholars. This also occurs to the highest saints, today Allah said I am on His character, as His name Allah manifests itself in the universe which we witnessed. Allah then explained that we earned this because we where denied the saintly realities by our enemies, we spent much of our life in response to their actions and missed what many awliayh gained in a time of peace, so Allah rewarded us for it with this, by raising us on His character in front of them while they where oblivious to what was in front of them. This is the true reality of what it means that Allah created man on His image, it means to complete that image, Allah didn’t say it to us in any other way. “And neither did he bid you to take the angels and the prophets for your lords: [for] would he bid you to deny the truth after you have surrendered yourselves unto God?” وَلَا يَأْمُرَكُمْ أَن تَتَّخِذُوا الْمَلَائِكَةَ وَالنَّبِيِّينَ أَرْبَابًا أَيَأْمُرُكُم بِالْكُفْرِ بَعْدَ إِذْ أَنتُم مُّسْلِمُونَ

939) From Our Wilayah: You can’t comprehend how beautiful the ways of Rasul Allah (saws) are until you spend time with Him (saws), Allah gave Him (saws) the best of everything, by Allah it is such that if you are to suffer something you would ask Allah to suffer it the way Rasul Allah (saws) suffered it because that is the best way to suffer its reality, by Allah this is a gift Allah gave to us multiple times and every time He said to us it was a gift from Him. We saw that Rasul Allah (saws) when He (saws) saw something happen He (saws) saw it in a comprehensive manner, as if from a complete perspective, we asked Him (saws) how, after we completed the image of Allah in us we saw how and He (saws) came and said it to us, this is how. فَمَن تَوَلَّىٰ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ
940) From Our Wilayah; How Islam Can Help Judaism; Jewish culture has been destroyed and rebuilt multiple times, each time something of the past is lost, Arabic culture and its many facets from 1400 years ago is still preserved to this day, it is an ancient culture and society from that period that tells you how those people understood specific issues which you can look up and use to help define what the norm is. One Issue we can bring up is that of John the Baptist (q) and how his views on water are interpreted, modern Christians and Jews say baptism makes you born again while that is a perversion of the text, water washes away the material effects of sin on the body so that you are as clean as the day you where born, that is the context of the term as used by the Prophet Muhammad (saws) who has spoken about the effects of water at length. “Do they seek, perchance, a faith other than in God, although it is unto Him that whatever is in the heavens and on earth surrenders itself, willingly or unwillingly, since unto Him all must return?”. أَفَغَيْرَ دِينِ اللَّهِ يَبْغُونَ وَلَهُ أَسْلَمَ مَن فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ طَوْعًا وَكَرْهًا وَإِلَيْهِ يُرْجَعُونَ
941) From The Hikmah Of Islam; I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying, “If there was a river at the door of anyone of you and he took a bath in it five times a day would you notice any dirt on him?” They said, “Not a trace of dirt would be left.” The Prophet (ﷺ) added, “That is the example of the five prayers with which Allah blots out (annuls) evil deeds”. Their material effect from the body, if He (saws) meant permanently from your book of records then it would not require repetition. “Humran, the freed slave of ‘Uthman, said: Uthman b. ‘Affan called for ablution water and this is how he performed the ablution. He washed his hands thrice. He then rinsed his mouth and cleaned his nose with water (three times). He then washed his face three times, then washed his right arm up to the elbow three times, then washed his left arm like that, then wiped his head; then washed his right foot up to the ankle three times, then washed his left foot like that, and then said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) perform ablution like this ablution of mine. Then the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: He who performs ablution like this ablution of mine and then stood up (for prayer) and offered two rak’ahs of prayer without allowing his thoughts to be distracted, all his previous sins (between this prayer and the last) are expiated (In Arabic the word is غُفِرَ, Ghufira, wiped away, annulled away as it came, as if it had not been there). Ibn Shihab said: Our scholars remarked: This is the most complete of the ablutions performed for prayer” (Muslim). حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، وَالدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ” أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ أَنَّ نَهَرًا بِبَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ، يَغْتَسِلُ فِيهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسًا، مَا تَقُولُ ذَلِكَ يُبْقِي مِنْ دَرَنِهِ ”. قَالُوا لاَ يُبْقِي مِنْ دَرَنِهِ شَيْئًا. قَالَ ” فَذَلِكَ مِثْلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ، يَمْحُو اللَّهُ بِهَا الْخَطَايَا ”.
942) From the Hikmah Of Islam; ‘Amr b. ‘Abasa Sulami reported: In the state (days) of the Ignorance (before embracing Islam), I used to think that the people were in error and they were not on anything (which may be called the right path) and worshipped the idols. Meanwhile, I heard of a man in Mecca who was giving news (on the basis of his prophetic knowledge) ; so I sat on my ride and went to him. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was at that time hiding as his people had made life hard for him. I adopted a friendly attitude (towards the Meccans and thus managed) to enter Mecca and go to him (the Holy Prophet) and I said to him: Who are you? He said: I am a Prophet (of Allah). I again said: Who is a Prophet? He said: I have been sent by Allah. I said: What is that which you have been sent with? He said: I have been sent to join ties of relationship, to break the Idols, and to proclaim the oneness of Allah nothing is to be associated with Him. I said: Who is with you in this ? He said: A free man and a slave. He (the narrator) said: Abu Bakr and Bilal were there with him among those who had embraced Islam by that time (The first two people to enter Islam). I said: I intend to follow you. He said: During these (early) days you would not be able to do so. Don’t you see the (hard) condition under which I and (my) people are living? You better go back to your people and when you hear that I have been granted victory, you come to me. So I went to my family. I was in my home when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to Medina. I was among my people and used to seek news and ask people when he arrived in Medina. Then a group of people belonging to Yathrib (Medina) came. I said (to them): How is that person getting on who has come to Medina? They said: The people are hastening to him, while his people (the polytheists of Mecca) planned to kill him, but they could not do so. I (on hearing it) came to Medina and went to him and said: Messenger of Allah, do you recognise me? He said: Yes, you are the same man who met me at Mecca. I said: It is so. I again said: Prophet of Allah, tell me that which Allah has taught you and which I do not know, tell me about the prayer. He said: Observe the dawn prayer, then stop praying when the sun is rising till it is fully up, for when it rises it comes up between the horns of Satan (a metaphor for hell heating up, the black holes subatomic effect on the universe), and the unbelievers prostrate themselves to it at that time. Then pray, for the prayer is witnessed and attended (by angels) till the shadow becomes about the length of a lance; then cease prayer, for at that time Hell is heated up. Then when the shadow moves forward, pray, for the prayer is witnessed and attended by angels, till you pray the afternoon prayer, then cease prayer till the sun sets, for it sets between the horns of devil (these are metaphors about the spiritual/subatomic condition of the world, not devils themselves), and at that time the unbelievers prostrate themselves before it. I said: Apostle of Allah, tell me about ablution (washing the body with water) also. He said: None of you who uses water for ablution and rinses his mouth, snuffs up water and blows it, but the sins of his face, and his mouth and his nostrils fall out (their material effect on that part of the body). When he washes his face, as Allah has commanded him, the sins of his face fall out from the end of his beard with the water. Then (when) he washes his forearms up to the elbows, the sins of his arms fall out along with the water from his finger-tips. And when he wipes his head, the sins of his head fall out from the points of his hair along with the water. And (when) he washes his feet up to the ankles, the sins of his feet fall out from his toes along with the water. And if he stands to pray and praises Allah, lauds Him and glorifies Him with what becomes Him and shows wholehearted devotion to Allah, his (minor) sins (during this time) would depart leaving him (as innocent) as he was on the day his mother bore him. ‘Amr b. ‘Abasa narrated this hadith to Abu Umama, a Companion of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and Abu Umama said to him: ‘Amr b. ‘Abasa, think what you are saying that such (a great reward) is given to a man at one place (only in the act of ablution and prayer). Upon this ‘Amr said: Abu Umama, I have grown old and my bones have become weak and I am at the door of death; what impetus is there for me to attribute a lie to Allah and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)? Had I heard it from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) once, twice, or three times (even seven times), I would have never narrated it, but I have heard it from him on occasions more than these (Sahih Muslim, it is one of the most rigorously authenticated collection of narrations in Islam. This is the effect of prayer, regular prayer done properly wipes away the minor sins you do throughout the day, this is why Muslims display such light. Extremists like to use this narration to say you have to be so perfected to achieve this to push people towards extremist beliefs, but the prophet (saws) was talking about the efforts of the average man). حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمَعْقِرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شَدَّادُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَبُو عَمَّارٍ، وَيَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ، – قَالَ عِكْرِمَةُ وَلَقِيَ شَدَّادٌ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ وَوَاثِلَةَ وَصَحِبَ أَنَسًا إِلَى الشَّامِ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ فَضْلاً وَخَيْرًا – عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ قَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبَسَةَ السُّلَمِيُّ كُنْتُ وَأَنَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَظُنُّ أَنَّ النَّاسَ عَلَى ضَلاَلَةٍ وَأَنَّهُمْ لَيْسُوا عَلَى شَىْءٍ وَهُمْ يَعْبُدُونَ الأَوْثَانَ فَسَمِعْتُ بِرَجُلٍ بِمَكَّةَ يُخْبِرُ أَخْبَارًا فَقَعَدْتُ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِي فَقَدِمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مُسْتَخْفِيًا جُرَءَاءُ عَلَيْهِ قَوْمُهُ فَتَلَطَّفْتُ حَتَّى دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ بِمَكَّةَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ مَا أَنْتَ قَالَ ” أَنَا نَبِيٌّ ” . فَقُلْتُ وَمَا نَبِيٌّ قَالَ ” أَرْسَلَنِي اللَّهُ ” . فَقُلْتُ وَبِأَىِّ شَىْءٍ أَرْسَلَكَ قَالَ ” أَرْسَلَنِي بِصِلَةِ الأَرْحَامِ وَكَسْرِ الأَوْثَانِ وَأَنْ يُوَحَّدَ اللَّهُ لاَ يُشْرَكُ بِهِ شَىْءٌ ” . قُلْتُ لَهُ فَمَنْ مَعَكَ عَلَى هَذَا قَالَ ” حُرٌّ وَعَبْدٌ ” . قَالَ وَمَعَهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبِلاَلٌ مِمَّنْ آمَنَ بِهِ . فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي مُتَّبِعُكَ . قَالَ ” إِنَّكَ لاَ تَسْتَطِيعُ ذَلِكَ يَوْمَكَ هَذَا أَلاَ تَرَى حَالِي وَحَالَ النَّاسِ وَلَكِنِ ارْجِعْ إِلَى أَهْلِكَ فَإِذَا سَمِعْتَ بِي قَدْ ظَهَرْتُ فَأْتِنِي ” . قَالَ فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي وَقَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْمَدِينَةَ وَكُنْتُ فِي أَهْلِي فَجَعَلْتُ أَتَخَبَّرُ الأَخْبَارَ وَأَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ حِينَ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ عَلَىَّ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ يَثْرِبَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَقُلْتُ مَا فَعَلَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَقَالُوا النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ سِرَاعٌ وَقَدْ أَرَادَ قَوْمُهُ قَتْلَهُ فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِيعُوا ذَلِكَ . فَقَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتَعْرِفُنِي قَالَ ” نَعَمْ أَنْتَ الَّذِي لَقِيتَنِي بِمَكَّةَ ” . قَالَ فَقُلْتُ بَلَى . فَقُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي عَمَّا عَلَّمَكَ اللَّهُ وَأَجْهَلُهُ . أَخْبِرْنِي عَنِ الصَّلاَةِ قَالَ ” صَلِّ صَلاَةَ الصُّبْحِ ثُمَّ أَقْصِرْ عَنِ الصَّلاَةِ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ فَإِنَّهَا تَطْلُعُ حِينَ تَطْلُعُ بَيْنَ قَرْنَىْ شَيْطَانٍ وَحِينَئِذٍ يَسْجُدُ لَهَا الْكُفَّارُ ثُمَّ صَلِّ فَإِنَّ الصَّلاَةَ مَشْهُودَةٌ مَحْضُورَةٌ حَتَّى يَسْتَقِلَّ الظِّلُّ بِالرُّمْحِ ثُمَّ أَقْصِرْ عَنِ الصَّلاَةِ فَإِنَّ حِينَئِذٍ تُسْجَرُ جَهَنَّمُ فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَ الْفَىْءُ فَصَلِّ فَإِنَّ الصَّلاَةَ مَشْهُودَةٌ مَحْضُورَةٌ حَتَّى تُصَلِّيَ الْعَصْرَ ثُمَّ أَقْصِرْ عَنِ الصَّلاَةِ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ فَإِنَّهَا تَغْرُبُ بَيْنَ قَرْنَىْ شَيْطَانٍ وَحِينَئِذٍ يَسْجُدُ لَهَا الْكُفَّارُ ” . قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ فَالْوُضُوءُ حَدِّثْنِي عَنْهُ قَالَ ” مَا مِنْكُمْ رَجُلٌ يُقَرِّبُ وَضُوءَهُ فَيَتَمَضْمَضُ وَيَسْتَنْشِقُ فَيَنْتَثِرُ إِلاَّ خَرَّتْ خَطَايَا وَجْهِهِ وَفِيهِ وَخَيَاشِيمِهِ ثُمَّ إِذَا غَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ إِلاَّ خَرَّتْ خَطَايَا وَجْهِهِ مِنْ أَطْرَافِ لِحْيَتِهِ مَعَ الْمَاءِ ثُمَّ يَغْسِلُ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ إِلاَّ خَرَّتْ خَطَايَا يَدَيْهِ مِنْ أَنَامِلِهِ مَعَ الْمَاءِ ثُمَّ يَمْسَحُ رَأْسَهُ إِلاَّ خَرَّتْ خَطَايَا رَأْسِهِ مِنْ أَطْرَافِ شَعْرِهِ مَعَ الْمَاءِ ثُمَّ يَغْسِلُ قَدَمَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ إِلاَّ خَرَّتْ خَطَايَا رِجْلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنَامِلِهِ مَعَ الْمَاءِ فَإِنْ هُوَ قَامَ فَصَلَّى فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَمَجَّدَهُ بِالَّذِي هُوَ لَهُ أَهْلٌ وَفَرَّغَ قَلْبَهُ لِلَّهِ إِلاَّ انْصَرَفَ مِنْ خَطِيئَتِهِ كَهَيْئَتِهِ يَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ ” . فَحَدَّثَ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبَسَةَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ يَا عَمْرَو بْنَ عَبَسَةَ انْظُرْ مَا تَقُولُ فِي مَقَامٍ وَاحِدٍ يُعْطَى هَذَا الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ عَمْرٌو يَا أَبَا أُمَامَةَ لَقَدْ كَبِرَتْ سِنِّي وَرَقَّ عَظْمِي وَاقْتَرَبَ أَجَلِي وَمَا بِي حَاجَةٌ أَنْ أَكْذِبَ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَلاَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ لَوْ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلاَّ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا – حَتَّى عَدَّ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ – مَا حَدَّثْتُ بِهِ أَبَدًا وَلَكِنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ .
943) From Our Wilayah: The Material Effect Of Sin; Chinese culture talks about acupuncture and the flow of energy/light in the body, removing what blocks it to maintain good health through out your life, this is exactly what ablution and prayer does for the body so that the entire body become radiant. But we are not talking about a magical light, rather people are ignorant of the bodies physiology and the role of light/photons in it. The bodies nervous system generates an electromagnetic field, light in simple terms which is in the invisible spectrum, and this is concentrated in the organs of the body, primarily the heart and the brain, their field is so strong it can be measured using scientific equipment from 4 ft away, and with ultra sensitive equipment at 10 ft away. The term sin is just a generalization for acts people perform that impact them in harmful ways at a subatomic level, they impact either you, your family or society on a larger scale, so Allah made them impermissible to remove the ruin they bring. Water helps wipe away their material effects from the body so that the bodies light can become strong and the body maintains strong health, as a result people become radiant when this is practiced regularly, it increases the beauty of women especially. “Say: “We believe in God, and in that which has been bestowed from on high upon us, and that which has been bestowed upon Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and their descendants, and that which has been vouchsafed by their Sustainer unto Moses and Jesus and all the [other] prophets: we make no distinction between any of them. And unto Him do we surrender ourselves.” قُلْ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَمَا أُنزِلَ عَلَيْنَا وَمَا أُنزِلَ عَلَىٰ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَالْأَسْبَاطِ وَمَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ وَعِيسَىٰ وَالنَّبِيُّونَ مِن رَّبِّهِمْ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّنْهُمْ وَنَحْنُ لَهُ مُسْلِمُونَ
944) From Our Wilayah: Jewish Sacrifices Offered In the Temple: “A korban was a kosher animal sacrifice, such as a bull, sheep, goat, or a dove that underwent shechita (Jewish ritual slaughter). Sacrifices could also consist of or include grain, meal, wine, or incense”. The intention of the sacrifices has been lost to some people Killing an animal is not an easy thing, whether you do it your self or are part of it through sponsorship, it impacts you that you took a life. Thus it is an act Allah forces on you to inspire piety between you and Him, this is its purpose and role, this is the wisdom behind the story of Abraham and His (q), it was to teach Him (q) this very lesson, the ultimate meaning of sacrifice which both Muslims and Jews are required to observe; Allah said, “Then when (the son) reached (the age of) (serious) work with him, he said: “Oh my son! I see in vision that I offer thee in sacrifice: Now see what is thy view!” (The son) said: “Oh my father! Do As thou art commanded: Thou wilt find me, if Allah so wills one practicing patience and constancy!” So when they had both submitted their wills (to Allah), and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (for sacrifice), We called out to him, “Oh Abraham! Thou hast already fulfilled the vision!” Thus indeed do We reward those who do right. For this was obviously a trial and We ransomed him with a momentous sacrifice” (As-Safat 37: 102-107) Allah substituted the sacrifice of the son with the sacrifice of animals then asked the descendants of Abraham (q) to continue this tradition so they could learn the same lesson as him, piety towards Allah in the face of trail. Allah said: “It is not their meat nor their blood, that reaches Allah: it is your piety that reaches Him: He has thus made them (the animals) subject to you, that ye may glorify Allah for His guidance to you: And proclaim the Good News (the reality of piety) to all who do right” (Al-Hajj 22: 37). Allah also says: “To every people did We appoint rites (of sacrifice) that they might celebrate the name of Allah over the sustenance He gave them from animals (that Allah subjected their life and suffering to you, so you are grateful to them and Him). But your God is One God: Submit then your will to Him: and give thou the good news (what this wisdom) to those who humble themselves” (they need not fear the harm they are doing to animals)” (Al-Hajj 22: 34). “Qurban or Qurbanī (Arabic: قربانى) as referred to in Islamic law, is the ritual animal sacrifice of a livestock animal during Eid al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice, It honors the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God’s command. In the Islamic lunar calendar, Eid al-Adha falls on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, the month of Pilgrimage (Hajj), and lasts for four days). The word is related to the Hebrew קרבן qorbān “offering” and Syriac qurbānā “sacrifice”, etymologised through the cognate Arabic triliteral as “a way or means of approaching someone” or “nearness””. This is the verse Allah inspired us with “For, if one goes in search of a religion other than self-surrender unto God, it will never be accepted from him, and in the life to come he shall be among the lost”. وَمَن يَبْتَغِ غَيْرَ الْإِسْلَامِ دِينًا فَلَن يُقْبَلَ مِنْهُ وَهُوَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ
945) From Our Wilayah: The people of Allah asked us to write this; Some black leaders said we should keep statues of slavers to remind the world of slavery, that is a strong argument that no real answer was found for, here it is; The way black people are being treated today is enough reminder of slavery, get rid of the statues so these people are not wrongly venerated and their reality persists. كَيْفَ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ قَوْمًا كَفَرُوا بَعْدَ إِيمَانِهِمْ وَشَهِدُوا أَنَّ الرَّسُولَ حَقٌّ وَجَاءَهُمُ الْبَيِّنَاتُ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ
946) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Every day Muslims around the world repeat the words first heard from Bilal (q) the freed slave of Abu bakr (q); “The adhan (call to prayer) was revealed to one of the prophet Muhammad’s companions (sahabah), Abdullah Ibn Zaid Ibn Abd Rabbihi, in a dream after it had been decided that Islam should find its own method to announce the time of prayer rather than using those of other religions, such as bells (Christianity) or horns (Judaism). Upon the Prophet hearing the recollection of Abdullah’s vision, Prophet Muhammad (q) chose Bilal ibn Ribah (q) to call people to prayer, a freed Ethiopian slave and one of the early converts to Islam, because of his marvelous voice. When Bilal first called the adhan, ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab (q), who later became the second caliph of Islam, heard him in his house and came to Prophet Muhammad saying that he had seen precisely the same vision in his dreams”. In the dream, the words to be recited were given as follows: “God’s (reality) is greater! God’s (reality) is greater! I testify that there is no god (reality), but God. I testify that Muhammad is the apostle of God. Come to prayer! Come to prayer! Come to salvation! Come to salvation! God’s (reality) is greater! God’s (reality) is greater! There is no god (reality) but God.” The prophet Muhammad (saws) said “Stand, O Bilal, and comfort us with the prayer.” (Sunan Abī Dāwūd 4986), “several of the prophet’s followers advised Muhammad to give the distinction of muezzin to someone else due to the fact that Bilal’s Arabic pronunciation carried a heavy Ethiopian accent, he was unable to effectively say the consonant “sh.” the prophet Muhammad responded saying: “The ‘siin’ of bilal is ‘shiin’ in the hearing of Allah””, meaning Allah accepts the reality of Bilal (q) for the entire Muslim nation. “Once the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “O Bilal, what special deeds have you done that I heard sounds of your foot steps ahead of me in Paradise.” Bilal said, “Whenever I make Wudu (ablution), I offer two units (rakah) of prayer as Tahayyatul Wudu (the nafl/optional prayer after doing wudhu).” Bilal was among Ashab Al-Suffa, the term, Ashab Al-Suffa, is a name given to the poor companions of the prophet (saws) who stayed in the arbor, or veranda, next to the mosque of the Prophet (peace be upon him) in Madinah after the emigration and studied religious sciences there, every one of them was a saint who later generations of Muslims learnt the path of Sainthood from. أُولَٰئِكَ جَزَاؤُهُمْ أَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ لَعْنَةَ اللَّهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ
947) From Our Karamat: 1400 years and people are only now learning the real meaning of the Adhan; “God’s (reality) is greater! God’s (reality) is greater! I testify that there is no god (reality), but God. I testify that Muhammad is the apostle of God. Come to prayer! Come to prayer! Come to salvation! Come to salvation! God’s (reality) is greater! God’s (reality) is greater! There is no god (reality) but God”. The people of Allah said in front of us to people, “You will learn this is what these words mean”. خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا لَا يُخَفَّفُ عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابُ وَلَا هُمْ يُنظَرُونَ
948) From Our Wilayah: Allah’s Earth Is My Inheritance Not The Elite Of This World; “And when thy Lord said unto the angels: Lo! I am about to place a viceroy in the earth”, “[And We said:] “O David! Behold, We have made thee a [prophet and, thus, Our] vicegerent on earth: judge, then, between men with justice”, I am Allah’s vicegerent, the earth is my responsibility to fix and Judge as I wish to Judge. يَا دَاوُودُ إِنَّا جَعَلْنَاكَ خَلِيفَةً فِي الْأَرْضِ فَاحْكُم بَيْنَ النَّاسِ بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا تَتَّبِعِ الْهَوَىٰ فَيُضِلَّكَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَضِلُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ بِمَا نَسُوا يَوْمَ الْحِسَابِ
949) From Our Wilayah: Don’t listen to scientists who tell you we can’t prove the healing property of something, they have a myopic view of the world. What you eat is not limited to its chemical properties, but rather its chemical makeup creates its reality and it is this that affects your reality and heals it, so when you see old wisdom that says this heals you it is doing so from the spiritual world down, hence it doesn’t matter if the effective ingredient only makes up 1% of the medicine, scientists can’t even prove vitamins work. وَعَلَّمَ آدَمَ الْأَسْمَاءَ كُلَّهَا ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلَائِكَةِ فَقَالَ أَنبِئُونِي بِأَسْمَاءِ هَٰؤُلَاءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
950) From Our Wilayah: The world is one reality fighting against another, it is because of this I can tell you taking multiple types of vitamins to strengthen various part of the body is one of the best ways to break spells affecting you. قَالُوا سُبْحَانَكَ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَا إِلَّا مَا عَلَّمْتَنَا إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَلِيمُ الْحَكِيمُ
951) From Our Wilayah: Darkness Its Reality; Darkness is not a light, it isn’t something you feel, I have been through every kind of darkness with the devils and studied it all. The devils manifest a fear in you of something so you can materialize it psychologically and give it life, but from the start it is always you. The darkness you think you are feeling is the Jinn sitting on yourself/nafs like a weight not the manifestation of evil, or proof of how evil you have become, your body is passive it does not speak to you rather Jinn speak to you through it and they see you like a toy. The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, “Satan waits perching on the heart of man. When man mentions Allah, he keeps down; when man is heedless, he causes delusions” (Bukhari). What you think is evil is your hearts inability to carry light, light is made from photons so it is a created thing but the darkness you think is there is not created from anything, black is the absence of light not the manifestation of something other than photons, it is all you explaining your own self with pseudo-science, any manifestation you see is nothing more than the jinn in various forms in you, they can sit inside your heart, even your mind, or any part of the body “physically”, that is because they flow through the body like blood flows through your veins reaching all of it. That is what happens when you defoul the body with acts that let them in, I think you know what expels them then. Anas ibn Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, Satan flows through the human being like the flowing of blood”. “Sin”, the result of foul acts, covers the heart like rust covers metal and blocks light, darkness is not more than that, a room with the light turned off, it is not a living thing if you perceive that then that is the Jinn sitting in the dark talking to you. Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, when the servant commits a sin, a black mark appears upon his heart. If he abandons the sin, seeks forgiveness, and repents, then his heart will be polished. If he returns to the sin, the blackness will be increased until it overcomes his heart. It is the covering that Allah has mentioned: No, rather a covering is over their hearts from what they have earned.” (83:14) This is an analogy to illustrate the effect of sin, each act of sin has a different result on the body and is not exactly this, the reality of these acts is better illustrated with the following analogy; Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (ra) reports that Rasulullah (saws) said: “Indeed the hearts rust just as iron does. The Sahabah (q) asked: “What is its polish?” Rasulullah (saws) replied: “Abundant remembrance of death and recitation of the Quran”. Today Jinn are armed with sophistry to fool you, believe me it will never be more than words, you are the only one that can make it something by acting, I am proof of that and why the devils have never won. Do you know how I used to humiliate them when they came to attack me, they used to come to me threatening me with the Mafia, Triads, Yakuza, Bikers all sorts of things, I used to say one thing to them and it humiliated them to their core, to this day they still quote my words, I used to challenge them saying if you are real then place 1$ in a suit case and throw it over the fence, they used to come in grand forms like the leaders of armies, but this one simple thing they could not do it. They did the same thing to Buddha (q) when He (q) sat under the Bodhi tree, Satan and his army came to Him (q) in many forms but Buddha (q) never moved He (q) remained in His (q) place, eventually Buddha (q) defeated Satan, and so did we. At the end of it all the Prophet Muhammad (saws) came to us and said, in the same light as Buddha (q) found enlightenment under the fig tree; “The Saints crossed an ocean whose shores the Jurists could only stand upon,” Rasul Allah (saws) said to us in respect to the Saints “You stood upon a shore and watched it disappear”, we never had to move to reach Allah, like Buddha (q), we took a path of Honor to Allah and found that Allah is all Honor (Qala Rasul Allah (q)), “All that is on earth will perish: 55:27 But will abide (for ever) the Face of thy Lord,- full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour”. قَالَ يَا آدَمُ أَنبِئْهُم بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ فَلَمَّا أَنبَأَهُم بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ قَالَ أَلَمْ أَقُل لَّكُمْ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ غَيْبَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَأَعْلَمُ مَا تُبْدُونَ وَمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْتُمُونَ
952) From Our Hikmah: Women should compete with men in modern society, but I think they should do it in All female companies, places where they can display their qualities completely and the world can see how they perform. In every mixed environment men end up taking advantage of women and their qualities get watered down, who they are, because they end competing with men on their terms since they hold all the keys, and it is never good if women compete with men over the qualities of men, they lose their identity and become like them, which defeats the point of women standing shoulder to shoulder with men in business. Maybe once women build a few towers they can have a stronger voice in the world. (The Prophet Muhammad (saws) and the people of Allah (saws) consider this a solution to their problems in the world). وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْجُدُوا لِآدَمَ فَسَجَدُوا إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ وَاسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ
953) From Our Wilayah; The Most evil creatures according to Allah are Iblis, al Dajjal, Al Jassassah, the family of Iblis and the Turks who destroyed the Ottoman Islamic Khalifah, they were occultists and satanists involved in bringing the family of Iblis to power, they were Turks in powerful positions in the Ottoman Khalifah who agreed to destroy it and the Islamic world, Allah considers their descendants among them in this. وَقُلْنَا يَا آدَمُ اسْكُنْ أَنتَ وَزَوْجُكَ الْجَنَّةَ وَكُلَا مِنْهَا رَغَدًا حَيْثُ شِئْتُمَا وَلَا تَقْرَبَا هَٰذِهِ الشَّجَرَةَ فَتَكُونَا مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ
954) From Our Hikmah: We said the wall of Dhul Qarnian was magnetized and it was a giant magnet which is what scared Yajuj wa Majuj and stopped them from overcoming it, this would have been the world’s largest man made magnet. This also occurs in nature on giant scales you can’t imagine, “scientists discovered that the rock that makes up the ocean floor lies in a pattern of magnetized “stripes.” The rock of the ocean floor contains iron. … As the rock cooled, the iron bits inside lined up in the direction of Earth’s magnetic poles”. “The magnetic minerals in magma will line up either pointing north or pointing south, depending on the magnetic field at the time. But once the magma solidifies, the minerals are locked into place and as such can record the reversals of Earth’s magnetic field. The result of this is stripes of magnetic minerals that parallel the mid-ocean ridges”, every 300,000 years or so the poles of the earth reverse, the north pole becomes the south pole and the south pole becomes the north pole, making the needle of a compass reverse as well, this reversal is recorded in these magnetic stripes on the Ocean floor like the rings of a tree record things as it ages. فَأَزَلَّهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ عَنْهَا فَأَخْرَجَهُمَا مِمَّا كَانَا فِيهِ وَقُلْنَا اهْبِطُوا بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّ وَلَكُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ مُسْتَقَرٌّ وَمَتَاعٌ إِلَىٰ حِينٍ
955) From Our Wilayah: I am Allah’s Judge, it is my place to look at this world and pass judgment, as such today I made it haram for Jinn to talk to man, I also made it haram for the Angels who have taken the paths of evil to likewise talk to man, what ever happens from now on it will be done without the support of the Angels of Allah, in both respects. After we finished talking to Allah the people of Allah said to the devils “now we are finally going to see a world that’s clean”. “Then Adam received from his Lord words (of revelation), and He relented toward him. Lo! He is the relenting, the Merciful”. فَتَلَقَّىٰ آدَمُ مِن رَّبِّهِ كَلِمَاتٍ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ
956) From Our Wilayah: Faith is not “Faith”, it is sight that allows you to see things at a distance and act towards them now, that is why those who had faith acted towards what Allah prepared in the next life, while those who did not have “faith” ignored it and lost, faith breeds foresight and wisdom. “Those who have attained to faith, and who have not obscured their faith by wrongdoing-it is they who shall be secure, since it is they who have found the right path!” to what is coming in the future. “THE BEDOUIN say, “We have attained to faith.” Say [unto them, O Muhammad]: “You have not [yet] attained to faith; you should [rather] say, ‘We have [outwardly] surrendered’ – for [true] faith has not yet entered your hearts. But if you [truly] pay heed unto God and His Apostle, He will not let the least of your deeds go to waste: for, behold, God is much-forgiving, a dispenser of grace.” قَالَتِ الْأَعْرَابُ آمَنَّا قُل لَّمْ تُؤْمِنُوا وَلَٰكِن قُولُوا أَسْلَمْنَا وَلَمَّا يَدْخُلِ الْإِيمَانُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ وَإِن تُطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ لَا يَلِتْكُم مِّنْ أَعْمَالِكُمْ شَيْئًا إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
957) From Our Hikmah: A small lesson for Jewish people; Who a country belongs to is different from who a plot of land belongs to, this is the nature of Law, isn’t that what the word Torah means, The Law; Deuteronomy 27:15-19, 15 ‘Cursed is the man who makes an idol or a molten image, an abomination to the Lord, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and sets it up in secret.’ And all the people shall answer and say, ‘Amen.’ 16 ‘Cursed is he who dishonors his father or mother.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’ 17 ‘Cursed is he who moves his neighbor’s boundary mark.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’ 18 ‘Cursed is he who misleads a blind person on the road.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’ 19 ‘Cursed is he who distorts the justice due an alien (foreigner), orphan, and widow.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’ “The Book of Deuteronomy (literally “second law” from Greek deuteros + nomos) is the fifth book of the Jewish Torah, where it is called Devarim (Heb. דברים), “the words [of Moses]”. Chapters 1–30 of the book consist of three sermons or speeches delivered to the Israelites by Moses on the plains of Moab, shortly before they enter the Promised Land”, very literally Devarim is the laws of the Promised land “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen’”. From The verses Allah inspires us with, “Say: “Do you, perchance, [want to] inform God of [the nature of] your faith although God knows all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth? Indeed, God has full knowledge of everything!””. (If the Jewish people will stop nickel and dimming the situation they will see they have won the Land, they just need to live by the Torah). قُلْ أَتُعَلِّمُونَ اللَّهَ بِدِينِكُمْ وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ
958) From Our Wilayah: Would you believe moments after writing the above the book I purchased from the United Sates entitled “The Oxford Handbook of Citizenship” was delivered, so Insha Allah I am going to add the following wisdom; The Palestinian people should let go of their claim to Palestine/Israel, it is Un-islamic, against the Quran, Sunnah and the commands of the prophet to uphold the covenant of Abraham (q), hence outright kufr from Islam, and the Jewish people in return should acknowledge the right of the Palestinian people to live there as citizens, they are descendants of the first Muslims in Jerusalem who restored the rights of the Jews to live there after their exile by the Romans, and recognize their borders. Be like every other country on earth, the country is Jewish with other minorities living in it, owning their own land, this is normal, you enjoy that same right everywhere else in the world. “Many people think that they have bestowed a favour upon thee [O Prophet] by having surrendered [to thee]. Say thou: “Deem not your surrender a favour unto me: nay, but it is God who bestows a favour upon you by showing you the way to faith – if you are true to your word!”. I will say one more point of wisdom, for many people Israel is their home by Law, for others it is their land spiritually. يَمُنُّونَ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ أَسْلَمُوا قُل لَّا تَمُنُّوا عَلَيَّ إِسْلَامَكُم بَلِ اللَّهُ يَمُنُّ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ هَدَاكُمْ لِلْإِيمَانِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ
959) From Our Wilayah: The people of Allah know what is going to happen in the future, despite what empires plan, they are letting people do what they can to earn their place like those who came before them because that is the wisdom of life, it is about growth and development from the experiences of life that is the only way the soul grows. “Verily, God knows the hidden reality of the heavens and the earth; and God sees all that you do”. إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ غَيْبَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَاللَّهُ بَصِيرٌ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
960) From Our Wilayah: Allah said when a woman puts something in her heart, she puts it in her soul. ق وَالْقُرْآنِ الْمَجِيدِ
961) From Our Karamat: In Spirituality Age is everything, it is power and dominance, we live in a time that is to sophisticated for the Angels because they are to distant from physical existence and it is changing to fast for them to keep up with its realities, hence more often then not their decisions are unbalancing man and harming the universe. After years of observing this with Allah I spoke to Allah and banned the Mala’ikah from using their age against Man, they were overpowering his will with it, some of the Mala’ikah could not handle this so Allah said to them go and use it against the Jinn He has not banned you from using it against them, this is the place of Man (in this life and the next), the people of Allah then commented to the Jinn saying this is one of the acts that will save the universe. “Nay, but they marvel that a warner of their own hath come unto them; and the disbelievers say: This is a strange thing”. بَلْ عَجِبُوا أَن جَاءَهُم مُّنذِرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فَقَالَ الْكَافِرُونَ هَٰذَا شَيْءٌ عَجِيبٌ
962) From Our Wilayah: Did you know magnets don’t have their own force, they are in fact amplifying the magnetic field of the earth and that is what you are witnessing the amplification of a subatomic force into the world, this is exactly spirituality, a person aligns his inner self with the will of Allah and thus Allah’s manifestation in the universe which is within the subatomic world, allowing its forces to amplify into the world, with it man guides people and performs miracles. In this respect Allah said the Quran He is the particles (“light”) of the heavens and earth, He sent the prophet (q) as a lamp giving light to guide people, He guides to His Will/Light whomever He wills, and through the process of subatomic forces manifesting on the soul He shapes it (Surah al Shams), this is why Tawheed (“unification or oneness of God”) is the alignment of your inner self with the self of Allah and why the Saints described it as unity, it is the unity of your inner light/reality with His. اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ مَثَلُ نُورِهِ كَمِشْكَاةٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاحٌ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَةٍ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّيٌّ يُوقَدُ مِن شَجَرَةٍ مُّبَارَكَةٍ زَيْتُونَةٍ لَّا شَرْقِيَّةٍ وَلَا غَرْبِيَّةٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌ نُّورٌ عَلَىٰ نُورٍ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِهِ مَن يَشَاءُ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ
963) From Our Hikmah: Men should grateful to Allah for creating a person who wants to make them their entire world, are men not ungrateful, the best reward in the next life is the company of the best women, for that you have to become one of the best men in this world. قَدْ عَلِمْنَا مَا تَنقُصُ الْأَرْضُ مِنْهُمْ وَعِندَنَا كِتَابٌ حَفِيظٌ
964) From Our Wilayah: On the day of Judgment Allah is going to bring the soldiers of the Ottoman Khalifah to look at the Turkish people and judge them, they will not consider these people their descendants or even men. The Prophet Muhammad (saws) considers them the lowest people in creation, He (saws) said “Consider the people you betrayed”, consider the perfection of the people you betrayed, his (saws) companions (q), you destroyed their light in the world. ” Nay, but they have denied the truth when it came unto them, therefor they are now in troubled case”. بَلْ كَذَّبُوا بِالْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَاءَهُمْ فَهُمْ فِي أَمْرٍ مَّرِيجٍ
965) From Our Wilayah: The Prophet Muhammad (saws) said to the devils of this world, the People of Allah (q) are no longer going to tolerate them, the Angels of death began covering the world with death not long afterwards, as they were doing so to all the People, Jinn, Beasts and Angels who took evil paths, the prophet Muhammad (saws) came and said to them “leave the birds alone, leave room for the light of Allah”, so the Angels left them alone. If you want a light from Allah in the coming days you will find it with the birds of this world, you will see His qualities in them. The last time I saw the Angels cover the world in death 2 years later the Corona Virus broke out. “We said: Go down, all of you, from hence; but verily there cometh unto you from Me a guidance; and whoso followeth My guidance, there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve”. قُلْنَا اهْبِطُوا مِنْهَا جَمِيعًا فَإِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُم مِّنِّي هُدًى فَمَن تَبِعَ هُدَايَ فَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
966) From Our Wilayah: I saw one of the Angels of Allah trying to push through a dark cloud on earth, the people of Allah came and said to the Angel “You are never going to get through until see all the words of the Jinn are worthless”, that cloud was the multitude of Jinn and the Angel was trying to reach earth to help it. أَفَلَمْ يَنظُرُوا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَوْقَهُمْ كَيْفَ بَنَيْنَاهَا وَزَيَّنَّاهَا وَمَا لَهَا مِن فُرُوجٍ
967) From Our Wilayah: Jinn possession is an issue of identity, yours verse theirs, for it to occur yours needs to be killed, it needs to disappear, that is why the people behind it do it by destroying your citizenship, your place in the world, the people you belong to, its spells start here attacking your official citizenship to a country, as if you don’t belong to it. When you are spiritually stateless you are lowered in the world and your identity can be dissolved and eroded away, then Jinn can walk all over you. If you want to tackle this problem, in your life or otherwise, you should look here. The reason why Nazi, One Nation, Racist groups exist is to drum up spiritual power for the devils to strip you of your nationality and identity, so they can do this process. وَالْأَرْضَ مَدَدْنَاهَا وَأَلْقَيْنَا فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ وَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا مِن كُلِّ زَوْجٍ بَهِيجٍ
968) From Our Wilayah: Before the corona virus occurred, last year the devils were bragging about how if the “ethnic” people in their lands caught up to them, they don’t care they will do something drastic to stop them, something that would shut down all of their businesses and put them behind them permanently. They have plans but Allah has plans as well and He will use devils against each other to bring his plans about. تَبْصِرَةً وَذِكْرَىٰ لِكُلِّ عَبْدٍ مُّنِيبٍ
969) From Our Wilayah: This morning I asked the Angels of Death to check that they can enter every home. وَنَزَّلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً مُّبَارَكًا فَأَنبَتْنَا بِهِ جَنَّاتٍ وَحَبَّ الْحَصِيدِ
970) From Our Wilayah: Everything has its origin, Gabriel (q) said to us the origin of lying in the universe comes from the Angels and making promises to Allah that unknowingly can’t be kept, from that stemmed many different types of evil. وَالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ لَّهَا طَلْعٌ نَّضِيدٌ
971) From Our Wilayah: A dua Allah taught us, “Alhamdulillah Sharaktna bi Mawdu’aq”, “Alhamdulillah Ya Rab Al Alameen Sharaktna bi Mawdu’aq”. “I am Grateful you have associated us with your Affair”, the first part of the dua is for us, the second is for you to repeat afterwards. رِّزْقًا لِّلْعِبَادِ وَأَحْيَيْنَا بِهِ بَلْدَةً مَّيْتًا كَذَٰلِكَ الْخُرُوجُ
972) From Our Wilayah: Prophet hood and Sainthood are very simple things, doing what Allah will do on His behalf, Allah honors His servants with Himself, these are the Elite who are chosen to know Allah. كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ وَأَصْحَابُ الرَّسِّ وَثَمُودُ
973) From Our Wilayah: Mutually Assured Destruction Why The Occult Lost; Their world lost its power when they stupefied everything, that is when everything lost its meaning and in the spiritual world meaning is what gives everything power, it all exists in one eco system, religion and evil. وَعَادٌ وَفِرْعَوْنُ وَإِخْوَانُ لُوطٍ
974) From Our Wilayah: The Sainthood of Shaykh Hisham Kabbani (q) has not gone past the world of Jinn and reached the world of Angels, some people think that path requires washing yourself with water, when in reality it is requires making yourself like Allah. When Allah killed the entire world on the request of Noah (q), Allah afterwards said to Him (q), Noah (q) make for me 40 jugs out of clay, Noah (q) did as Allah asked and worked very hard to perfect them so Allah would be pleased with His (q) work. When Noah (q) was finished He (q) presented them to His (q) Lord, Allah looked at them and said to Noah (q), break all the jugs you have made with your hands, Noah (q) looked at all the Jugs with worry at how much care, love and effort He (q) put into making them. Allah then said to Noah (q), you asked me to kill all the people in the world but I created them with my two hands with love care and effort. Reaching the world of Angels means you see everyone, the struggle is growing so you are able to do it. وَأَصْحَابُ الْأَيْكَةِ وَقَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ كُلٌّ كَذَّبَ الرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ وَعِيدِ
975) From Our Wilayah: Muslim Saints are not anything like Christian Saints, they look like John (q) the companion of Jesus (q) who Allah gave an entire book of revelation to, Allah speaks to us guides us and reveals to us. أَفَعَيِينَا بِالْخَلْقِ الْأَوَّلِ بَلْ هُمْ فِي لَبْسٍ مِّنْ خَلْقٍ جَدِيدٍ
976) From Our Wilayah: Every people on earth have their Jinn, but the Jinn of every people are trapped in their culture they are not strong enough to go beyond it or they will lose their power. When your culture spreads to another people so do your Jinn, that is why America destroyed every culture on earth and spread its own, but unlike every empire before it they could not figure out a way to rule without destroying the culture of all peoples; Daniel 7:7 “After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast–terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the former beasts, and it had ten horns”. “We verily created man and We know what his soul whispereth to him, and We are nearer to him than his jugular vein”. وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ
977) From Our Wilayah: The Prophet Daniel (q) taught us, “sometimes you have to place something in the public eye so reality can filter out right from wrong”, this is very effective for removing the lies of devils about something from its reality, this is how to purify your reality not how you publicise it. “When the two Receivers receive (him), seated on the right hand and on the left”. إِذْ يَتَلَقَّى الْمُتَلَقِّيَانِ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ الشِّمَالِ قَعِيدٌ
978) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Abu Yazid Al Bistami (q) and His Disciple; “There was a certain ascetic who was one of the great saints of Bestam. He had his own followers and admirers, and at the same time he was never absent from the circle of Abu Yazid (who is one of the Major Saints of Islam). He listened to all his discourses, and sat with his companions. One day he remarked to Abu Yazid, “Master, today is thirty years that I have been keeping constant fast. By night too I pray, so that I never sleep at all. Yet I discover no trace in myself of this knowledge of which you speak. For all that I believe in this knowledge, and I love this preaching.” “If for three hundred years,” said Abu Yazid, “you fast by day and pray by night, you will never realize one atom of this discourse.” “Why?” asked the disciple. “Because you are veiled by your own self (you are led by who you are),” Abu Yazid replied. “What is the remedy for this?” the man asked. “You will never accept it,” answered Abu Yazid. “I will so,” said the man. “Tell me, so that I may do as you prescribe.” “Very well,” said Abu Yazid. “This very hour go and shave your beard and hair. Take off these clothes you are wearing, and tie a loincloth of goat’s wool about your waist. Hang a bag of nuts round your neck, then go to the marketplace. Collect all the children you can, and tell them, ‘I will give a nut to everyone who slaps me.’ Go round all the city in the same way; especially go everywhere people know you. That is your cure.” “Glory be to God! There is no god but God,” cried the disciple on hearing these words. “If an infidel uttered that formula, he would become a believer,” remarked Abu Yazid. “By uttering the same formula you have become a polytheist.” “How so?” demanded the disciple. “Because you counted yourself too grand to be able to do as I have said,” replied Abu Yazid. “So you have become a polytheist. You used this formula to express your own importance, not to glorify God.” “This I cannot do,” the man protested. “Give me other directions.” “The remedy is what I have said,” Abu Yazid declared. “I cannot do it,” the man repeated. “Did I not say that you would not do it, that you would never obey me?” said Abu Yazid”. Purify your reality so you can approach Allah’s. مَّا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتيدٌ
979) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Hasan of Basra; You know who of the people of Allah inspired you when you find their words and lessons in your life, that is how you recognize them. Al-Hasan ibn Abi ‘l Hasan al-Basri was born at Medina in 21 (642), the son of a slave captured in Maisan who afterwards became a client of the Prophet Mohammad’s secretary Zaid ibn Thabet. Brought up in Basra, he met many Companions of the Prophet including, it is said, seventy of those who fought at the Battle of Badr. He grew up to become one of the most prominent figures of his generation, being famous for his uncompromising piety and outspoken condemnation of worldliness in high places. Whilst the Mo’tazelite theologians (heretics) claim him as the founder of their movement (and ‘Amr ibn ‘Obaid and Wasel ibn ‘Ata’ are counted amongst his pupils), in Sufi hagiography he is revered as one of the greatest saints of early Islam. He died at Basra in 110 (728). Many of his speeches—he was a brilliant orator—and sayings are quoted by Arab authors and not a few of his letters have been preserved. The conversion of Hasan of Basra; The beginning of Hasan of Basra’s conversion was as follows. He was a jewel merchant and was called Hasan of the Pearls. He traded with Byzantium, and had to do with the generals and ministers of Caesar. On one occasion, going to Byzantium he called on the prime minister and conversed with him a while. “We will go to a certain place,” the minister told him, “if you are agreeable.” “It is for you to say,” Hasan replied. “I agree.” So the minister commanded a horse to be brought for Hasan. He mounted with the minister, and they set out. When they reached the desert Hasan perceived a tent of Byzantine brocade, fastened with ropes of silk and golden pegs, set firm in the ground. He stood to one side. Then a mighty army, all accoutred in the panoply of war, came out; they circled the tent, said a few words, and departed. Philosophers and scholars to the number of nigh four hundred arrived on the scene; they circled the tent, said a few words, and departed. After that three hundred illumined elders with white beards approached the tent, circled it, said a few words, and departed. Thereafter more than two hundred moon-fair maidens, each bearing a plate of gold and silver and precious stones, circled the tent, said a few words, and departed. Hasan relates that, astonished and filled with wonder, he asked himself what this might be. “When we alighted,” he went on, “I asked the minister. He said that the Caesar had a son of unsurpassable beauty, perfect in all the branches of learning and unrivalled in the arena of manly prowess. His father loved him with all his heart.” Suddenly he fell ill—so Hasan related on the authority of the minister. All the skilled physicians proved powerless to cure him. Finally he died, and was buried in that tent. وَجَاءَتْ سَكْرَةُ الْمَوْتِ بِالْحَقِّ ذَٰلِكَ مَا كُنتَ مِنْهُ تَحِيدُ
980) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Hasan of Basra (Continued); Once every year people come out to visit him. First an immense army circles the tent, and they say: “O prince, if this circumstance that has befallen thee had come about in war, we would have all sacrificed our lives for thee, to ransom thee back. But the circumstance that has befallen thee is at the hand of one against whom we cannot fight, whom we cannot challenge.” This they say, and then return. The philosophers and the scholars come forward, and say: “This circumstance has been brought about by one against whom we cannot do anything by means of learning and philosophy, science and sophistry. For all the philosophers of the world are powerless before him, and all the learned are ignorant beside his knowledge. Otherwise we would have contrived devices and spoken words which all in creation could not have withstood.” This they say, and then return. Next the venerable elders advance, and say: “O prince, if this circumstance that has befallen thee could have been set right by the intercession of elders, we would all have interceded with humble petitions, and would not have abandoned thee there. But this circumstance has been brought upon thee by one against whom no mortal man’s intercession profits anything.” This they say, and depart. Now the moon-fair maidens with their plates of gold and precious stones advance, circle the tent, and say: “Son of Caesar, if this circumstance that has befallen thee could have been set right by wealth and beauty, we would have sacrificed ourselves and given great moneys, and would not have abandoned thee. But this circumstance has been brought upon thee by one on whom wealth and beauty have no effect.” This they say, and return. Then Caesar himself with his chief minister enters the tent, and says: “O eye and lamp of thy father, O fruit of the heart of thy father, O dearest beloved of thy father, what is in thy father’s hand to perform? Thy father brought a mighty army, he brought philosophers and scholars, intercessors and advisers, beautiful maidens, wealth and all manner of luxuries; and he came himself. If all this could have been of avail, thy father would have done all that lay in his power. But this circumstance has been brought about by one before whom thy father, with all this apparatus, this army and retinue, this luxury and wealth and treasure, is powerless. Peace be upon you, till next year!” This he says, and returns. These words of the minister so affected Hasan that he was beside himself. At once he made arrangements to return. Coming to Basra, he took an oath never to laugh again in this world, till his ultimate destiny became clear to him. He flung himself into all manner of devotions and austerities, such that no man in his time could exceed that discipline. وَنُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ ذَٰلِكَ يَوْمُ الْوَعِيدِ
981) From Our Wilayah: While writing one of the devils wanted to teach his own lesson, inspired by wisdom, so the people of Allah came and said to him, “do you want us to put you in a Jar”, he then gave them a concerned look, so I said to him “what, do you want us to put you in a Genie lamp that is all cushioned on the inside, that is reserved only for Arab Jinn”. “And every soul will come forward with [his erstwhile] inner urges and [his] conscious mind”. وَجَاءَتْ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّعَهَا سَائِقٌ وَشَهِيدٌ
982) From Our Wilayah: Jesus (q) Hates the Cross; Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “The Hour will not be established until the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you as a just ruler, he will break the cross, kill the pigs, and abolish the Jizya tax. Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it (as charitable gifts)…Anyone ever wonder what it would have been like to go up to Jesus (q) and say “we want to use a torture device to represent you ?”. “Indeed you were heedless of this, but now We have removed the veil from you, your eyesight is sharp this Day!”. لَّقَدْ كُنتَ فِي غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هَٰذَا فَكَشَفْنَا عَنكَ غِطَاءَكَ فَبَصَرُكَ الْيَوْمَ حَدِيدٌ
983) From Our Wilayah: The reality of every crucifix is death and that is what is hanging around your necks. وَقَالَ قَرِينُهُ هَٰذَا مَا لَدَيَّ عَتِيدٌ
984) From Our Reality: The Honor Of Allah is Higher than His Light, that is the reality of our path to Allah. أَلْقِيَا فِي جَهَنَّمَ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ
985) From Our Wilayah: I watched the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II at Westminster Abbey in 1953, I then said to the Angels If I see less from you I am going to be upset, so they then began to laugh. Abu Ayyub narrated that a Bedouin came to the Prophet (saws) and said: “O Messenger of Allah, indeed, I love horses. Are there horses in Paradise?” The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: “If you are admitted into Paradise, you shall be brought a horse of rubies with two wings, then you shall be carried on it, then it will fly with you wherever you want.” حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ الأَحْمَسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ وَاصِلٍ، هُوَ ابْنُ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَبِي سَوْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُحِبُّ الْخَيْلَ أَفِي الْجَنَّةِ خَيْلٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم “ إِنْ أُدْخِلْتَ الْجَنَّةَ أُتِيتَ بِفَرَسٍ مِنْ يَاقُوتَةٍ لَهُ جَنَاحَانِ فَحُمِلْتَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ طَارَ بِكَ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ ” . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ بِالْقَوِيِّ وَلاَ نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ إِلاَّ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ . وَأَبُو سَوْرَةَ هُوَ ابْنُ أَخِي أَبِي أَيُّوبَ يُضَعَّفُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ ضَعَّفَهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ جِدًّا قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ يَقُولُ أَبُو سَوْرَةَ هَذَا مُنْكَرُ الْحَدِيثِ يَرْوِي مَنَاكِيرَ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ لاَ يُتَابَعُ عَلَيْهَا .
986) From Our Wilayah: There’s No Politics to Taste; Spirituality is about reaching royalty and nobility without wealth, some people just have a head start, and each person walks to Allah from his perspective in life facing the trappings of his world. مَّنَّاعٍ لِّلْخَيْرِ مُعْتَدٍ مُّرِيبٍ
987) From Our Wilayah: Queen Elizabeth’s Muslim Subjects; Oaths shape reality and fate along with allegiances, “During the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953, she was crowned as Queen of seven independent Commonwealth countries, including Pakistan (this was pronounced in her oath), which was still a dominion at the time, whereas India was not, as the dominion of India had become a republic under the new Indian constitution of 1950. Pakistan ceased being a dominion on 23 March 1956 on the adoption of a republican constitution. However, Pakistan became a republic within the Commonwealth of Nations. The Queen visited Pakistan as Head of the Commonwealth in 1961 and 1997, accompanied by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. Pakistan left the Commonwealth in 1972 over the issue of the former East Pakistan province becoming independent as Bangladesh. It rejoined in 1989, then was suspended from the Commonwealth twice: firstly from 18 October 1999 to 22 May 2004 and secondly from 22 November 2007 to 22 May 2008”. Pakistan has the second largest number of Muslims in the world after Indonesia. الَّذِي جَعَلَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ فَأَلْقِيَاهُ فِي الْعَذَابِ الشَّدِيدِ
988) From Our Karamat: They say only 10,000 people will attend the Hajj this years, that maybe but I asked the Mala’ikah to perform the Hajj in immense numbers this year to replace all the people who could not attend, they undertook this task, the Baraka of Hajj will not diminish this year or any year after, the Mala’ikah will continue the Hajj ever year until Qiyamah. قَالَ قَرِينُهُ رَبَّنَا مَا أَطْغَيْتُهُ وَلَٰكِن كَانَ فِي ضَلَالٍ بَعِيدٍ
989) From The Karamat Of Islam: Hasan of Basra and Abu Amr; It is related that Abu Amr, the leading authority on the reading of the Koran, was teaching the Koran one day when suddenly a handsome boy arrived to join his class. Abu Amr gazed at the child improperly (such as with the evil eye), and immediately he forgot the whole Koran, from the p of “Praise” to the n of “jinn and men”. A fire possessed him, and he lost all self-control. In this state he called on Hasan of Basra and described to him his predicament. “Master,” he wept bitterly, “such is the situation. I have forgotten the whole Koran.” Hasan was most distressed to hear of his situation. “Now is the season of the pilgrimage,” he said. “Go and perform the pilgrimage. When you have done that, repair to the mosque of Khaif. There you will see an old man seated in the prayer-niche. Do not spoil his time, but let him be until he is disengaged. Then ask him to say a prayer for you.” Abu Amr acted accordingly. Seated in a corner of the mosque, he observed a venerable elder and about him a circle of people seated. Some time passed; then a man entered, clad in spotless white robes. The people made way before him, greeted him, and conversed together. When the hour of prayer arrived, the man departed and the people departed with him, so that the elder remained alone. Abu Amr then approached and saluted him. “In Allah’s name, help me,” he cried. And he described his predicament. The elder, much concerned, raised his eyes to heaven. “He had not yet lowered his head,” Abu Amr recounted, “when the Koran came back to me. I fell down before him for joy.” “Who recommended me to you?” the elder asked. “Hasan of Basra,” Abu Amr replied. “Anyone who has an imam like Hasan,” the old man commented, “what need has he of another? Well, Hasan has exposed me. Now I will expose him. He rent my veil, and I will rend his as well. That man,” he went on, “in the white robes who entered after the afternoon prayer and left before the rest, and the others did him reverence—that man was Hasan. Every day he prays the afternoon prayer in Basra and then comes here, converses with me, and returns to Basra for the evening prayer. Anyone who has an imam like Hasan, why should he ask me for a prayer?”. (Taken from Muslim Saints and Mystics; Episodes from the Tadhkirat al-Auliya’ (Memorial of the Saints) by Farid al-Din Attar Translated by A. J. Arberry. The Prophet Muhammad (saws) said about this book (and this translation) “it is one of the most blessed books on earth”). قَالَ لَا تَخْتَصِمُوا لَدَيَّ وَقَدْ قَدَّمْتُ إِلَيْكُم بِالْوَعِيدِ
990) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Hasan of Basra and the fire-worshipper; Hasan had a neighbour named Simeon who was a fireworshipper. Simeon fell ill and was at death’s door. Friends begged Hasan to visit him; he called, to find him in bed, blackened with fire and smoke. “Fear God,” Hasan counselled him. “You have passed all your life amid fire and smoke. Accept Islam, that God may have mercy on you.” “Three things hold me back from becoming a Muslim,” the fire-worshipper replied. “The first is, that you speak ill of the world, yet night and day you pursue worldly things. Secondly, you say that death is a fact to be faced, yet you make no preparation for death. In the third place, you say that God’s face shall be seen, yet today you do everything contrary to His good pleasure.” “This is the token of those who know truly,” Hasan commented. “Now if believers act as you describe, what have you to say? They acknowledge the unity of God; whereas you have spent your life in the worship of fire. You who have worshipped fire for seventy years, and I who have never worshipped fire—we are both carried off to Hell. Hell will consume you and me. God will pay no regard to you; but if God so wills, the fire will not dare so much as to burn one hair of my body. For fire is a thing created by God; and the creature is subject to the Creator’s command. Come now, you who have worshipped fire for seventy years; let us both put our hands into the fire, then you will see with your own eyes the impotence of fire and the omnipotence of God.” So saying, Hasan thrust his hand into the fire and held it there. Not a particle of his body was affected or burnt. When Simeon saw this he was amazed. مَا يُبَدَّلُ الْقَوْلُ لَدَيَّ وَمَا أَنَا بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلْعَبِيدِ
991) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Hasan of Basra and the fire-worshipper (Continued); The dawn of true knowledge began to break. “For seventy years I have worshipped fire,” he groaned. “Now only a breath or two remains to me. What am I to do?” “Become a Muslim,” was Hasan’s reply. “If you give it me in writing that God will not punish me,” said Simeon, “then I will believe. But until I have it in writing, I will not believe.” Hasan wrote it down. “Now order just witnesses of Basra to append their testimony.” The witnesses endorsed the document. Then Simeon wept many tears and proclaimed the faith. He spoke his last testament to Hasan. “When I die, bid them wash me, then commit me to the earth with your own hands, and place this document in my hand. This document will be my proof.” Having charged Hasan thus, he spoke the attestation of faith and died. They washed his body, said the prayer over him, and buried him with the document in his hand. That night Hasan went to sleep pondering what he had done. “How could I help a drowning man, seeing that I am drowning myself? Since I have no control over my own fate, why did I venture to prescribe how God should act?” With this thought he fell asleep. He saw Simeon in a dream glowing like a candle; on his head a crown, robed in fine raiment, he was walking with a smile in the garden of Paradise. “How are you, Simeon?” Hasan enquired. “Why do you ask? You can see for yourself,” Simeon answered. “God Almighty of His bounty brought me nigh His presence and graciously showed me His face. The favours He showered upon me surpass all description. You have honoured your guarantee; so take your document. I have no further need of it.” When Hasan awoke, he saw that parchment in his hand.“Lord God,” he cried, “I know well that what Thou doest is without cause, save of Thy bounty. Who shall suffer loss at Thy door? Thou grantest a Guebre of seventy years to come into Thy near presence because of a single utterance. How then wilt Thou exclude a believer of seventy years?” يَوْمَ نَقُولُ لِجَهَنَّمَ هَلِ امْتَلَأْتِ وَتَقُولُ هَلْ مِن مَّزِيدٍ
992) From The Hikmah Of Islam; “In Islamic tradition, Haizum (Arabic: حيزوم) is the horse of the archangel Gabriel (q). It is a white, flaming, spiritual horse that has wings like that of a pegasus and can fly swiftly from one cosmic plane to another in a second. Haizum was God’s gift to Gabriel for pleasing Him. A legend based on sura Ta-Ha, 96 relates that dust from Haizum’s hoofprints was thrown the golden calf’s mouth” (which made it partially alive so the Jews worshiped it). “And the Garden is brought nigh for those who kept from evil, no longer distant”. (Allah chose Haizum for Jibril because he is the smartest of all the animals in the universe). وَأُزْلِفَتِ الْجَنَّةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ
993) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Narrated Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri; We said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Shall we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?” He said, “Do you have any difficulty in seeing the sun and the moon when the sky is clear?” We said, “No.” He said, “So you will have no difficulty in seeing your Lord on that Day as you have no difficulty in seeing the sun and the moon (in a clear sky).” The Prophet then said, “Somebody will then announce, ‘Let every nation follow what they used to worship.’ So the companions of the cross will go with their cross, and the idolators (will go) with their idols, and the companions of every god (false deities) (will go) with their god, till there remain those who used to worship Allah, both the obedient ones and the mischievous ones, and some of the people of the Scripture. Then Hell will be presented to them as if it were a mirage. (The following are generalizations for people who did wrong, not an absolute account) Then it will be said to the Jews, “What did you use to worship?’ They will reply, ‘We used to worship Ezra, the son of Allah.’ It will be said to them, ‘You are liars, for Allah has neither a wife nor a son. What do you want (now)?’ They will reply, ‘We want You to provide us with water.’ Then it will be said to them ‘Drink,’ and they will fall down in Hell. Then it will be said to the Christians, ‘What did you use to worship?’ They will reply, ‘We used to worship Messiah, the son of Allah.’ It will be said, ‘You are liars, for Allah has neither a wife nor a son. What: do you want (now)?’ They will say, ‘We want You to provide us with water.’ It will be said to them, ‘Drink,’ and they will fall down in Hell (I think this means taste your punishment, Allahu Allam). When there remain only those who used to worship Allah (Alone), both the obedient ones and the mischievous ones, it will be said to them, ‘What keeps you here when all the people have gone?’ They will say, ‘We parted with them (in the world) when we were in greater need of them than we are today, we heard the call of one proclaiming, ‘Let every nation follow what they used to worship,’ and now we are waiting for our Lord.’ Then the Almighty will come to them in a shape other than the one which they saw the first time, and He will say, ‘I am your Lord,’ and they will say, ‘You are not our Lord.’ And none will speak: to Him then but the Prophets, and then it will be said to them, ‘Do you know any sign by which you can recognize Him?’ They will say. ‘The Shin (His lower qualities He revealed to this creation),’ and so Allah will then uncover His Shin whereupon every believer will prostrate before Him and there will remain those who used to prostrate before Him just for showing off and for gaining good reputation. These people will try to prostrate but their backs will be rigid like one piece of a wood (and they will not be able to prostrate). هَٰذَا مَا تُوعَدُونَ لِكُلِّ أَوَّابٍ حَفِيظٍ
994) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Narrated Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri (Continued); Then the bridge will be laid across Hell.” We, the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! What is the bridge?’ He said, “It is a slippery (bridge) on which there are clamps and (Hooks like) a thorny seed that is wide at one side and narrow at the other and has thorns with bent ends. Such a thorny seed is found in Najd and is called As-Sa’dan. Some of the believers will cross the bridge (their light will carry them) as quickly as the wink of an eye, some others as quick as lightning, a strong wind, fast horses or she-camels. So some will be safe without any harm; some will be safe after receiving some scratches, and some will fall down into Hell (Fire). The last person will cross by being dragged (over the bridge).” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “You (Muslims) cannot be more pressing in claiming from me a right that has been clearly proved to be yours than the believers in interceding with Almighty for their (Muslim) brothers on that Day, when they see themselves safe. They will say, ‘O Allah! (Save) our brothers (for they) used to pray with us, fast with us and also do good deeds with us.’ Allah will say (to the Angels), ‘Go and take out (of Hell) anyone in whose heart you find faith equal to the weight of one (gold) Dinar.’ Allah will forbid the Fire to burn the faces of those sinners. They will go to them and find some of them in Hell (Fire) up to their feet, and some up to the middle of their legs. So they will take out those whom they will recognize and then they will return, and Allah will say (to them), ‘Go and take out (of Hell) anyone in whose heart you find faith equal to the weight of one half Dinar.’ They will take out whomever they will recognize and return, and then Allah will say, ‘Go and take out (of Hell) anyone in whose heart you find faith equal to the weight of an atom (or a particle), and so they will take out all those whom they will recognize.” Abu Sa’id said: If you do not believe me then read the Holy Verse:– ‘Surely! Allah wrongs not even of the weight of an atom (or a particle) but if there is any good (done) He doubles it.’ (4.40) The Prophet added, “Then the prophets and Angels and the believers will intercede, and (last of all) the Almighty (Allah) will say, ‘Now remains My Intercession. He will then hold a handful of the Fire from which He will take out some people whose bodies have been burnt, and they will be thrown into a river at the entrance of Paradise, called the water of life. They will grow on its banks, as a seed carried by the torrent grows (like plants sprouting from the ground). You have noticed how it grows beside a rock or beside a tree, and how the side facing the sun is usually green while the side facing the shade is white. Those people will come out (of the River of Life) like pearls, and they will have (golden) necklaces, and then they will enter Paradise whereupon the people of Paradise will say, ‘These are the people emancipated by the Beneficent. He has admitted them into Paradise without them having done any good deeds and without sending forth any good (for themselves, simply because they believed in their Lord).’ Then it will be said to them, ‘For you is what you have seen and its equivalent as well.'” حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلاَلٍ، عَنْ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ نَرَى رَبَّنَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ ” هَلْ تُضَارُونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ الشَّمْسِ وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا كَانَتْ صَحْوًا ”. قُلْنَا لاَ. قَالَ ” فَإِنَّكُمْ لاَ تُضَارُونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ رَبِّكُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ، إِلاَّ كَمَا تُضَارُونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِمَا ـ ثُمَّ قَالَ ـ يُنَادِي مُنَادٍ لِيَذْهَبْ كُلُّ قَوْمٍ إِلَى مَا كَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَ. فَيَذْهَبُ أَصْحَابُ الصَّلِيبِ مَعَ صَلِيبِهِمْ، وَأَصْحَابُ الأَوْثَانِ مَعَ أَوْثَانِهِمْ، وَأَصْحَابُ كُلِّ آلِهَةٍ مَعَ آلِهَتِهِمْ حَتَّى يَبْقَى مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ مِنْ بَرٍّ أَوْ فَاجِرٍ، وَغُبَّرَاتٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ، ثُمَّ يُؤْتَى بِجَهَنَّمَ تُعْرَضُ كَأَنَّهَا سَرَابٌ فَيُقَالُ لِلْيَهُودِ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ قَالُوا كُنَّا نَعْبُدُ عُزَيْرَ ابْنَ اللَّهِ. فَيُقَالُ كَذَبْتُمْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِلَّهِ صَاحِبَةٌ وَلاَ وَلَدٌ فَمَا تُرِيدُونَ قَالُوا نُرِيدُ أَنْ تَسْقِيَنَا، فَيُقَالُ اشْرَبُوا فَيَتَسَاقَطُونَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ ثُمَّ يُقَالُ لِلنَّصَارَى مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ فَيَقُولُونَ كُنَّا نَعْبُدُ الْمَسِيحَ ابْنَ اللَّهِ. فَيُقَالُ كَذَبْتُمْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِلَّهِ صَاحِبَةٌ وَلاَ وَلَدٌ، فَمَا تُرِيدُونَ فَيَقُولُونَ نُرِيدُ أَنْ تَسْقِيَنَا. فَيُقَالُ اشْرَبُوا. فَيَتَسَاقَطُونَ حَتَّى يَبْقَى مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ مِنْ بَرٍّ أَوْ فَاجِرٍ فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ مَا يَحْبِسُكُمْ وَقَدْ ذَهَبَ النَّاسُ فَيَقُولُونَ فَارَقْنَاهُمْ وَنَحْنُ أَحْوَجُ مِنَّا إِلَيْهِ الْيَوْمَ وَإِنَّا سَمِعْنَا مُنَادِيًا يُنَادِي لِيَلْحَقْ كُلُّ قَوْمٍ بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَ. وَإِنَّمَا نَنْتَظِرُ رَبَّنَا ـ قَالَ ـ فَيَأْتِيهِمُ الْجَبَّارُ. فَيَقُولُ أَنَا رَبُّكُمْ. فَيَقُولُونَ أَنْتَ رَبُّنَا. فَلاَ يُكَلِّمُهُ إِلاَّ الأَنْبِيَاءُ فَيَقُولُ هَلْ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَهُ آيَةٌ تَعْرِفُونَهُ فَيَقُولُونَ السَّاقُ. فَيَكْشِفُ عَنْ سَاقِهِ فَيَسْجُدُ لَهُ كُلُّ مُؤْمِنٍ، وَيَبْقَى مَنْ كَانَ يَسْجُدُ لِلَّهِ رِيَاءً وَسُمْعَةً، فَيَذْهَبُ كَيْمَا يَسْجُدَ فَيَعُودُ ظَهْرُهُ طَبَقًا وَاحِدًا، ثُمَّ يُؤْتَى بِالْجَسْرِ فَيُجْعَلُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَىْ جَهَنَّمَ ”. قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا الْجَسْرُ قَالَ ” مَدْحَضَةٌ مَزِلَّةٌ، عَلَيْهِ خَطَاطِيفُ وَكَلاَلِيبُ وَحَسَكَةٌ مُفَلْطَحَةٌ، لَهَا شَوْكَةٌ عُقَيْفَاءُ تَكُونُ بِنَجْدٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا السَّعْدَانُ، الْمُؤْمِنُ عَلَيْهَا كَالطَّرْفِ وَكَالْبَرْقِ وَكَالرِّيحِ وَكَأَجَاوِيدِ الْخَيْلِ وَالرِّكَابِ، فَنَاجٍ مُسَلَّمٌ وَنَاجٍ مَخْدُوشٌ وَمَكْدُوسٌ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ، حَتَّى يَمُرَّ آخِرُهُمْ يُسْحَبُ سَحْبًا، فَمَا أَنْتُمْ بِأَشَدَّ لِي مُنَاشَدَةً فِي الْحَقِّ، قَدْ تَبَيَّنَ لَكُمْ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْجَبَّارِ، وَإِذَا رَأَوْا أَنَّهُمْ قَدْ نَجَوْا فِي إِخْوَانِهِمْ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا إِخْوَانُنَا كَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ مَعَنَا وَيَصُومُونَ مَعَنَا وَيَعْمَلُونَ مَعَنَا. فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى اذْهَبُوا فَمَنْ وَجَدْتُمْ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالَ دِينَارٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ فَأَخْرِجُوهُ. وَيُحَرِّمُ اللَّهُ صُوَرَهُمْ عَلَى النَّارِ، فَيَأْتُونَهُمْ وَبَعْضُهُمْ قَدْ غَابَ فِي النَّارِ إِلَى قَدَمِهِ وَإِلَى أَنْصَافِ سَاقَيْهِ، فَيُخْرِجُونَ مَنْ عَرَفُوا، ثُمَّ يَعُودُونَ فَيَقُولُ اذْهَبُوا فَمَنْ وَجَدْتُمْ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالَ نِصْفِ دِينَارٍ فَأَخْرِجُوهُ. فَيُخْرِجُونَ مَنْ عَرَفُوا، ثُمَّ يَعُودُونَ فَيَقُولُ اذْهَبُوا فَمَنْ وَجَدْتُمْ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ فَأَخْرِجُوهُ. فَيُخْرِجُونَ مَنْ عَرَفُوا ”. قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ تُصَدِّقُونِي فَاقْرَءُوا {إِنَّ اللَّهَ لاَ يَظْلِمُ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ وَإِنْ تَكُ حَسَنَةً يُضَاعِفْهَا} ” فَيَشْفَعُ النَّبِيُّونَ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةُ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ فَيَقُولُ الْجَبَّارُ بَقِيَتْ شَفَاعَتِي. فَيَقْبِضُ قَبْضَةً مِنَ النَّارِ فَيُخْرِجُ أَقْوَامًا قَدِ امْتُحِشُوا، فَيُلْقَوْنَ فِي نَهَرٍ بِأَفْوَاهِ الْجَنَّةِ يُقَالُ لَهُ مَاءُ الْحَيَاةِ، فَيَنْبُتُونَ فِي حَافَتَيْهِ كَمَا تَنْبُتُ الْحِبَّةُ فِي حَمِيلِ السَّيْلِ، قَدْ رَأَيْتُمُوهَا إِلَى جَانِبِ الصَّخْرَةِ إِلَى جَانِبِ الشَّجَرَةِ، فَمَا كَانَ إِلَى الشَّمْسِ مِنْهَا كَانَ أَخْضَرَ، وَمَا كَانَ مِنْهَا إِلَى الظِّلِّ كَانَ أَبْيَضَ، فَيَخْرُجُونَ كَأَنَّهُمُ اللُّؤْلُؤُ، فَيُجْعَلُ فِي رِقَابِهِمُ الْخَوَاتِيمُ فَيَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ فَيَقُولُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ هَؤُلاَءِ عُتَقَاءُ الرَّحْمَنِ أَدْخَلَهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ عَمَلٍ عَمِلُوهُ وَلاَ خَيْرٍ قَدَّمُوهُ. فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ لَكُمْ مَا رَأَيْتُمْ وَمِثْلُهُ مَعَهُ ”.
995) From Our Wilayah: The Vietnam War In The Bible; “12(America) exercised all the authority of the first (Empire Britain) on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the (British Empire), whose fatal wound (in WW2) had been healed. 13And it performed great signs (On Television), even causing fire (Napalm) to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people (On T.V)”. مَّنْ خَشِيَ الرَّحْمَٰنَ بِالْغَيْبِ وَجَاءَ بِقَلْبٍ مُّنِيبٍ
996) From Our Wilayah: In terms of what I have carried in life, I am like the prophets of old who used to live to a thousand years, very soon the leaders of this world will start paying for that, that is the way of Allah. “Enter it in peace. This is the day of immortality”. ادْخُلُوهَا بِسَلَامٍ ذَٰلِكَ يَوْمُ الْخُلُودِ
997) From Our Wilayah: The Leaders of this world are giants among the lower Angels, no one else. لَهُم مَّا يَشَاءُونَ فِيهَا وَلَدَيْنَا مَزِيدٌ
998) From Our Wilayah: The heaven of this life is not the heaven of the next, it serves to do the will of the inhabitants of the universe, good and evil, and like everything as a result it has its reality, life and will. When Allah placed Iblis in heaven that was like placing black ink in clear water, he colored it with his reality, and when Allah placed Adam (q) and Hawah (q) in heaven that was like placing white ink in water, they colored it with their reality, thus heaven was given a choice of whose influence it would follow and whose influence would dominate, such are the matters of fate. For a time it followed Adam (q) and Hawah (q) and the doors of its treasures where exclusively for the people of Allah, but like a person who believes and then disbelieves, “Lo! those who believe, then disbelieve and then (again) believe, then disbelieve, and then increase in disbelief, Allah will never pardon them, nor will He guide them unto a way”, ultimately it chose Ibis over Adam (q), and today that is its reality, all the doors of its treasury are open for the occult to use and closed to the people of Allah. So, we said this to Allah, “Ya Allah I am on the Sunnah of Adam (q), after carrying what we carried as Adam (q) your Heaven has still not relented from its way and turned back to the reality of Adam (q), it has chosen Iblis over Him (q)”, “That is because they believed, then disbelieved, therefore their hearts are sealed so that they understand not”. Allah agreed with us that this has become the reality of Heaven, then Rasul Allah (saws) came with its proof and showed it to the Angels so they would understand, upon seeing it and our reality they came and lowered their wings to us. This is what the Prophet (saws) brought, “13:2 The (British Empire) I saw resembled a leopard (a small lion), but had feet like those of a bear (walked like the Ottoman Empire it once feared) and a mouth like that of a lion (Spoke like the Romans). The dragon (Satan) gave the beast his power (over the occult) and his throne and great authority (over the devils)”. Thus “13:4 People worshiped the dragon (Satan) because he had given authority to the (British), and they also worshiped the (British) and asked, “Who is like the (British Empire)? Who can wage war against it?”. This is the verses Allah inspires us with “And how many a generation We destroyed before them, who were mightier than these in prowess so that they overran the lands! Had they any place of refuge (when the judgment came upon them)?”. وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُم مِّن قَرْنٍ هُمْ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُم بَطْشًا فَنَقَّبُوا فِي الْبِلَادِ هَلْ مِن مَّحِيصٍ
999) From The Hikmah Of Islam; Malek ibn Dinar; Malek ibn Dinar al-Sami was the son of a Persian slave from Sejestan (or Kabol) and became a disciple of Hasan of Basra. He is mentioned as a reliable traditionist, transmitting from such early authorities as Anas ibn Malek and Ibn Sirin. A noted early calligrapher of the Koran, he died c.130 (748). How Malek-e Dinar came to be so named, and
the story of his repentance. When Malek was born his father was a slave; yet though he was a slave’s son, he was free from bondage to both worlds. Some say that Malek-e Dinar once embarked in a ship. When the ship was far out to sea the mariners demanded, “Produce your fare!” “I do not have it,” he answered. They beat him till he was senseless. When he recovered, they shouted again. “Produce your fare!” “I do not have it,” he repeated. They beat him unconscious a second time. When he came to, they demanded a third time. “Produce your fare!” “I do not have it.” “Let us seize him by the feet and throw him overboard,” the sailors shouted. All the fish in the water at that moment put up their heads. Each one held two golden dinars in its mouth. Malek reached down his hand and, taking two dinars from one of the fish, gave it to them. Seeing this, the crew fell at his feet. He walked on the face of the waters and vanished (this is from the karamat of Isa (as)). That is why he was called Malek-e Dinar. Now his conversion came about as follows. He was a very handsome man and fond of worldly things, and he possessed great wealth. He lived in Damascus, where Mo’awiya had built the cathedral mosque, endowing it liberally. Malek was very eager to be appointed in charge of that mosque. So he went and threw his prayer rug down in the corner of the mosque, and there for a whole year continued in devotion, hoping that whoever saw him would find him at prayer. “What a hypocrite for you!” he would say to himself. A year passed in this way. By night he would leave the mosque and take his amusement. One night he was enjoying music, and all his companions had fallen asleep. Suddenly a voice came from the lute he was playing. “Malek, what ails thee that thou repentest not?” Hearing these words, Malek dropped the instrument and ran to the mosque in great confusion. “For a whole year I have worshipped God hypocritically,” he communed with himself. “Is it not better that I should worship God in sincerity? Yet I am ashamed. What am I to do? Even if they offer me this appointment, I will not accept it.” So he resolved, and he put his conscience right with
God. That night he worshipped with a truthful heart. Next day people assembled as usual before the mosque. “Why, are there cracks in the mosque,” they exclaimed. “A superintendent ought to be appointed to keep it in order.” They reached the unanimous view that no one was better fitted for the post than Malek. So they came to him. He was at prayer, so they waited patiently until he was finished. “We have come to plead with you to accept this appointment,” they said. “O God,” cried Malek, “I served Thee hypocritically for a whole year, and no one looked at me. Now that I have given my heart to Thee and firmly resolved that I do not want the appointment, Thou hast sent twenty men to me to place this task on my neck. By Thy glory, I do not want it.” And he ran out of the mosque and applied himself to the Lord’s work, taking up the life of austerity and discipline. So respected did he become, and of such excellence of life, that l when a certain wealthy citizen of Basra died, leaving behind a lovely daughter, the latter approached Thabet-e Bonani. “I wish to become the wife of Malek,” she announced, “so that he may help me in the labour of obedience to God.” Thabet informed Malek. “I have divorced the world,” Malek replied. “This woman belongs to the world I have divorced. I cannot marry her.” ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ آمَنُوا ثُمَّ كَفَرُوا فَطُبِعَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ فَهُمْ لَا يَفْقَهُونَ
1000) From The Hikmah of Islam: Habib al-Ajami: Habib ibn Mohammad al-‘Ajami al-Basri, a Persian settled at Basra, was a noted traditionist who transmitted from al-Hasan al-Basri, Ibn Sirin, and other authorities. His conversion from a life of ease and self-indulgence was brought about by al-Ha’an’s eloquence; he was a frequent attendant at his lectures, and became one of his closest associates. The story of Habib the Persian. Habib to begin with was a man of property and a usurer. He dwelt in Basra, and every day he made the rounds to dun his clients. If he got no money, he would demand payment for his shoe leather. In this manner he covered his daily expenditure. One day he had gone to look for a certain debtor. The man was not at home; so failing to find him, he demanded shoe leather payment. “My husband is not at home,” the debtor’s wife told him. “I myself have nothing to give you. We had killed a sheep, but only the neck is left. If you like I will give you that.” “That is something,” the usurer replied, thinking that he might at least take the sheep’s neck off her and carry it home. “Put a pot on the fire.” “I have neither bread nor fuel,” the woman answered. “Very well,” the man said. “I will go and fetch fuel and bread, and it can be charged to shoe leather.” So he went off and fetched these things, and the woman set the pot. When the pot was cooked the woman was about to pour its contents into a bowl when a beggar knocked at the door. “If we give you what we have got,” Habib shouted at him, “you will not become rich, and we will become poor ourselves.” The beggar, despairing, petitioned the woman to put something in the bowl. She lifted the lid of the saucepan, and found that its contents had all turned to black blood. Turning pale she hurried back and taking Habib by the hand, led him towards the pot. “Look what has happened to us because of your cursed usury, and your shouting at the beggar!” she cried. “What will become of us now in this world, not to mention the next?” (Angels do such things to guide man) On seeing this, Habib felt a fire within him which never afterwards subsided. “Woman,” he said, “I repent of all I have done.” Next day he went out to look for his clients. It happened to be a Friday, and the children were playing in the street. When they sighted Habib they started to shout. “Here comes Habib the usurer. Run away, lest his dust settles on us and we become as cursed as he!” These words hurt Habib very much. He took his way to the meeting hall, and there certain phrases passed Hasan of Basra’s lips which struck Habib straight to the heart, so that he fainted. Then he repented. Realizing what had happened, Hasan of Basra took him by the hand and calmed him. As he returned from the meeting he was spotted by one of his debtors, who made to run away. “Do not run away,” Habib called to him. “Till now it was for you to flee from me; now I must run away from you.” He passed on. The children were still playing. When they sighted Habib they shouted again. “Here comes Habib the penitent. Run away, lest our dust settles on him, for we are sinners against God.” “My God and Master!” cried Habib. “Because of this one day that I have made my peace with Thee, Thou hast beaten the drums of men’s hearts for me and noised my name abroad for virtue.” Then he issued a proclamation. “Whoever wants anything from Habib, come and take it!” The people gathered together, and he gave away all his possessions so that he was left penniless. Another man came with a demand. Having nothing left, Habib gave him his wife’s chaddur. To another claimant he gave his own shirt, and remained naked. He repaired to a hermitage on the banks of the Euphrates, and there gave himself up to the worship of God. Every night and day he studied under Hasan, but he could not learn the Koran, for which reason he was nicknamed the Barbarian. Time passed, and he was completely destitute. His wife asked him for housekeeping money constantly. So Habib left his house and made for the hermitage to resume his devotions. When night came he returned to his wife. “Where have you been working, not to bring anything home?” his wife demanded. “The one I have been working for is extremely generous,” Habib replied. “He is so generous that I am ashamed to ask him for anything. When the proper time comes, he will give. For he says, ‘Every ten days I pay the wages.’” So Habib repaired daily to the hermitage to worship, till ten days were up. On the tenth day at the time of the midday prayer a thought entered his mind. “What can I take home tonight, and what am I to tell my wife?” And he pondered this deeply. Straightway Almighty God sent a porter to the door of his house with an assload of flour, another with a skinned sheep, and another with oil, honey, herbs, and seasonings. The porters loaded up all this. A handsome young man accompanied them with a purse of three hundred silver dirhams. Coming to Habib’s house, he knocked on the door. “What do you want?” asked Habib’s wife, opening the door. “The Master has sent all this,” the handsome youth replied. “Tell Habib, ‘You increase your output, and we will increase your wages.’” So saying, he departed. At nightfall Habib proceeded homeward, ashamed and sorrowful. As he approached his house, the aroma of bread and cooking assailed his nostrils. His wife ran to greet him and wiped his face and was gentle with him as she had never been before. “Husband,” she cried, “the man you are working for is a very fine gentleman, generous and full of loving kindness. See what he sent by the hand of a handsome young man! And the young man said, ‘When Habib comes home, tell him, You increase your output, and we will increase your wages.’” Habib was amazed. “Wonderful!” he exclaimed. “I worked for ten days, and he did me all this kindness. If I work harder, who knows what he will do?” And he turned his face wholly away from worldly things and gave himself up to God’s service. إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ثُمَّ كَفَرُوا ثُمَّ آمَنُوا ثُمَّ كَفَرُوا ثُمَّ ازْدَادُوا كُفْرًا لَّمْ يَكُنِ اللَّهُ لِيَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ وَلَا لِيَهْدِيَهُمْ سَبِيلًا
1001) From The Hikmah Of Islam: Rabe’a al-Adawiya, one of our teachers whose life affected ours deeply: Rabe’a bint Esma’il al-‘Adawiya, born in humble circumstances and sold into slavery as a child, later settled in Basra where she attained great fame as a saint and a preacher and was highly esteemed by many of her pious contemporaries. The date of her death is given variously as 135 (752) and 185 (801). To her, a lifelong celibate, is attributed a large share in the introduction into Islamic mysticism of the theme of Divine love. Her tomb used to be pointed out near Jerusalem. Rabe’a, her birth and early life. If anyone says, “Why have you included Rabe’a in the rank of men?” my answer is, that the Prophet himself said, “God does not regard your outward forms.” The root of the matter is not form, but intention, as the Prophet said, “Mankind will be raised up according to their intentions.” Moreover, if it is proper to derive two-thirds of our religion from A’esha, surely it is permissible to take religious instruction from a handmaid of A’esha. When a woman becomes a “man” in the path of God, she is a man (mature) and one cannot any more call her a woman. The night when Rabe’a came to earth, there was nothing whatsoever in her father’s house; for her father lived in very poor circumstances. He did not possess even one drop of oil to anoint her navel; there was no lamp, and not a rag to swaddle her in. He already had three daughters, and Rabe’a was his fourth; that is why she was called by that name. “Go to neighbour So-and-so and beg for a drop of oil, so that I can light the lamp,” his wife said to him. Now the man had entered into a covenant that he would never ask any mortal for anything. So he went out and just laid his hand on the neighbour’s door, and returned. “They will not open the door,” he reported. The poor woman wept bitterly. In that anxious state the man placed his head on his knees and went to sleep. He dreamed that he saw the Prophet. “Be not sorrowful,” the Prophet bade him. “The girl child who has just come to earth is a queen among women, who shall be the intercessor for seventy thousand of my community Tomorrow,” the Prophet continued, “go to Isa-e Zadan the governor of Basra. Write on a piece of paper to the following effect. ‘Every night you send upon me a hundred blessings, an on Friday night four hundred. Last night was Friday night, and you forgot me. In expiation for that, give this man four hundred dinars lawfully acquired.’” Rabe’a’s father on awaking burst into tears. He rose up and wrote as the Prophet had bidden him, and sent the message to the governor by the hand of a chamberlain. “Give two thousand dinars to the poor,” the governor commanded when he saw the missive, “as a thanksgiving for the Master remembering me. Give four hundred dinars also to the shaikh, and tell him, ‘I wish you to come to me so that I may see you. But I do not hold it proper for a man like you to come to me. I would rather come and rub my beard in you threshold. However, I adjure you by God, whatever you may need, pray let me know.’” The man took the gold and purchased all that was necessary When Rabe’a had become a little older, and her mother and father were dead, a famine came upon Basra, and her sisters were scattered. Rabe’a ventured out and was seen by a wicked man who seized her and then sold her for six dirhams. Her purchaser put her to hard labour. One day she was passing along the road when a stranger approached. Rabe’a fled. As she ran, she fell headlong and her hand was dislocated. “Lord God,” she cried, bowing her face to the ground, “I am a stranger, orphaned of mother and father, a helpless prisoner fallen into captivity, my hand broken. Yet for all this I do not grieve; all I need is Thy good pleasure, to know whether Thou art well-pleased or no.” “Do not grieve,” she heard a voice say. “Tomorrow a station shall be thine such that the cherubim in heaven will envy thee.” So Rabe’a returned to her master’s house. By day she continually fasted and served God, and by night she worshipped standing until day. One night her master awoke from sleep and, looking through the window of his apartment, saw Rabe’a bowing prostrate and praying. “O God, Thou knowest that the desire of my heart is in conformity with Thy command, and that the light of my eye is in serving Thy court. If the affair lay with me, I would not rest one hour from serving Thee, but Thou Thyself hast set me under the hand of a creature.” Such was her litany. Her master perceived a lantern suspended without any chain above her head, the light whereof filled the whole house. Seeing this, he was afraid. Rising up he returned to his bedroom and sat pondering till dawn. When day broke he summoned Rabe’a, was gentle with her and set her free. “Give me permission to depart,” Rabe’a said. He gave her leave, and she left the house and went into the desert. From the desert she proceeded to a hermitage where she served God for a while. Then she determined to perform the pilgrimage, and set her face towards the desert. She bound her bundle on an ass. In the heart of the desert the ass died. “Let us carry your load,” the men in the party said. “You go on,” she replied. “I have not come putting my trust in you.” So the men departed, and Rabe’a remained alone. “O God,” she cried, lifting her head, “do kings so treat a woman who is a stranger and powerless? Thou hast invited me unto Thy house, then in the midst of the way Thou hast suffered my ass to die, leaving me alone in the desert.” Hardly had she completed this orison when her ass stirred and rose up (back to life, one of the Karamat of Isa (q)). Rabe’a placed her load on its back, and continued on her way. (The narrator of this story reports that some while afterwards he saw that little donkey being sold in the market.) She travelled on through the desert for some days, then she halted. “O God,” she cried, “my heart is weary. Whither am I going? I a lump of clay, and Thy house a stone! I need Thee here.” God spoke unmediated in her heart (without Angels, this is from the path of Al Khidr). “Rabe’a, thou art faring in the life-blood of eighteen thousand worlds (split in focus). Hast thou not seen how Moses prayed for the vision of Me? And I cast a few motes of revelation upon the mountain, and the mountain shivered into forty pieces. Be content here with My name!”. بَشِّرِ الْمُنَافِقِينَ بِأَنَّ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا أَلِيمًا
