Our Pir of the Tariqa Shah Bahaudeen Naqshaband said: “Allah looks at the hearts of His Saints with His Lights, and whoever is around that Saint will get the blessings of those Lights.”
“Whoever is initiated by us and follows and loves us, whether he is near or far, wherever he is, even if he is in the East and we are in the West, we nourish from the stream of Divine Love and give him Divine Light in his daily life.” “Tafakkur sa’atin khayrun min’ibaadati saba’in sanatin- Reflective thinking for one hour is better than 70 years of superogatory worship.”
Make Ghuzul or Wudhu and put on clean clothes if possible. Pray two Rakaats ‘Tahiyatul Wudhu’. Then sit down in a silent private place and face the Qiblah. Close your eyes and try to stop all movements, thinking and wishing. Imagine yourself in the presence of your Sheikh and him sitting in front of you. For that purpose you can try to remember a moment you had with the Sheikh which was pleasant or impressive to you, or use a picture of him to remember his face. Connect with him through your heart, turning in love towards him. "Sincerity is to worship Allah as if you were seeing Him; and even if you don't see Him, He is always looking to you."
The Sheikh is the representative of the Holy Prophet who is the Caliphatullah. Remember that the Sheikh is always looking to us, that he is always with us, even though we may not be able to see, hear or feel him. This is why we are not with him and forget him. Imagine yourself always in his presence, he being at your side, no matter what you do. This will protect you from misbehaving.
To connect with the Sheikh, read 3 x Suratu?l Ikhlas and 1 x Suratu-l Fatiha. Dedicate them to the Holy Prophet Muhammad sws and to the soul of our Grandsheikh Abdullah ad- Daghestani. Then ask for Maulana Sheikh Nazim. You can imagine the heart of the Sheikh like an ocean of Divine Faiz, Blessings, and your own heart like a vessel which is being filled with that Faiz running from the Sheikh's heart to your own heart. Or you can imagine your Sheikh covering you like a tent under which you are sitting. On its four sides the Divine Faiz (blessings) are raining down. You can also imagine yourself swimming in the ocean of the Sheikh's heart, like a fish or a drop of water. If you are getting disturbed by other pictures, open your eyes quickly. They will disappear and then you can continue to concentrate.
If disturbing thoughts are coming to you, say: "La haula wa la quwatta illa billahil Aliyul Azim, (There is no power nor strength with me except that which is coming from Allah, the most High, the Magnificiant) and/or: Audhu billahi minasy shaitani rajim, (I seek refuge in Allah's Presence from the cursed Shaitan), 100 times or more, until they disappear.
Our Grandsheikh Shah-u-Naqshiband said: "The seeker in this way must be busy in rejecting evil whisperings and the ego's demands, either before they reach him, or after they reach him but before they control him. A seeker who doesn't reject them until after they reached him and controlled him cannot get any fruit, because at that time it is impossible to take the whisperings out of the heart."
When practising the silent Dhikr of the heart keep the tongue on the upper palate and the teeth on top of each other. To deepen the concentration while listening to the heart?s Dhikr you can imagine the Name of Allah from light being engraved on your heart. Everything has been created for man except for his heart. The heart is for Allah Alone, so that He can make it His Throne. The Naqsh is Allah's stamp or seal on the heart. During the training in the Naqshibandi Order Allah's Name is being perfectly engraved in the heart of the seeker or disciple.
Our Grandsheikh Abdullah ad-Daghestani said: "I will teach you a way to approach me quickly. Whenever you do your prayers, make Dhikr, read Quran, anything that you are doing, make the following intention: Nawaithul arbain, nawaithul uzla, navwaithul khalwa, nawaithul itikaf nawaithul suluq, nawaithul riada, lillaha taala fi haazal jaami i" ( I am intending to perform the 40 days of retreat, isolation, solitude and to follow the path and spiritual practices for the sake of Allah Almightyin this place of worship.) Your worshipping with this intention will be deducted from the 40 Days of Seclusion, which are obligatory for a Naqshabandi Murid."
Our Grandsheikh Shah Bahaudin Naqshaband said: "Intention, Niyat, is very important. It consists of three letters: Nun, which represents the Nur Allah, the Light of God; Ya, which represents the Yad Allah, the Hand of God; and Ha, which represents Hidayatullah, the guidance of Allah. Niyat is the breeze of the soul, coming from the unseen world, not from the material."
On the way of Truth, Tariq-i-Haqq, two methods are being used: Tariqats follow either the Tariq-i-Nafsani, the way on which first of all the Nafs, the ego, is educated in order for the soul to be saved, or they follow the Tariq-i-Ruhani, the way on which first of all the Ruh, the spirit or soul is purified. The Tariq-i-Nafsani is heavy. Always you have to do the opposite of what your ego wants from you. It is a big fight. The Tariq-i-Ruhani is easy.
Sheikh says that on our way you can use the best of everything under the condition that you also do your best in worshipping Allah. On this way first of all the spirit or soul is purified, with no regard to the ego. After the Ruh has found its original attributes the ego, willingly or unwillingly, must follow the Ruh and obey its orders.
The Sheikh opens from his heart to the heart of the Murid a spring of Faiz, Divine Blessings, from the Divine Oceans of Faiz. He increases the love for Allah in the heart of the Murid and in this fire of Divine Love all worldliness is burnt. Through the Faiz the heart is cleaned. Then the state of the Murid changes. It is through the Baraka and the spiritual power of the Sheikh that the Murid progresses from the lowest level or state of his soul to the highest.
There is two beings in the Children of Adam which are always fighting: The Ruh-u- Haywaniya, which is always against Allah and rebellious, and the Ruh-u-Sultaniya, which is always obedient to Allah and finds its pleasure in worshipping Allah. If the lower self is absolutely in control, one's characteristics can be worse than a wild animal. If the higher Self is absolutely in control, one's characteristics can be better than those of the Angels. To become an Insan Kamil, a perfected human being, one must undergo a training at the hands of a perfect Master, because the Nafs (soul, self, ego) must develop.

DIVINE ATTRACTION and THE CONQUEST OF THE HEARTS
WHY THE NAQSHBANDI WAY IS THE MOST DISTINGUISHED
It is more important to be able to conquer hearts than to conquer the whole world. This is very important. The special attribute of Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihiwasalam) was to conquer the hearts of people. When hearts are conquered they come to surrender. Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihiwasalam) worked for thirteen years to establish faith. To establish Iman. When he established Iman he was able to conquer the hearts of people because the centre of Iman (Makkarun Iman) is the heart. This is how the Companions (Sahaba) of the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihiwasalam) surrendered to Allah Almighty and were able to reach to the level of Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihiwasalam). This was the way by which they reached to the light of Iman (Noor ul Iman) and then this method reached out to the far east and far west and to all places. Therefore today we are in need of “Conquerors of Hearts” and not Doctors of Law (Shariat).
Yes, we need people who are able to conquer the hearts of people and thereafter to be able to control these hearts. If after conquering hearts they are not controlled, Shaitan can easily come back again to take control. There is no way of conquering hearts except by the methodology of zikr and by the way of tariqats- sufi Orders. Today the spiritual power in all the other forty tariqats (all tariqats except Naqshabandi) have come to a standstill. Amongst the forty-one tariqats accepted by the Ahli Sunnat wa Jamaah, forty of them have now come to a halt. There is no more spiritual power. Only a temporarily renewed power may come sometimes to them. These forty tariqats were once like forty fountains or forty taps which were running with Divine Blessings. Today all of them have stopped and there are no more blessings coming from them, which can conquer the hearts of people and control them. This can only be done today by the naqshabandi tariqat because no other tariqat has Kamil ul Irshad (perfect spiritual attraction).
The people of the other tariqats who are keeping zikr have only been authorized previously (tabarukaah). They have been authorized to recite or to make zikr but as for Irshad (attraction) they have no power. When their Sheikhh dies or passes away they are not able to continue with at least someone equal to that previous Sheikhh’s power. Therefore this power keeps gradually fading and declining.
Today there is a need for much more power and for more authorized people to make Irshad (attraction) and to be able to conquer hearts, to open the hearts of people and to control them. If any of you know of such a person in these other tariqats please be good enough to inform me of them. Through the East and through the West all these tariqats are now only officially functioning and you cannot find real power in them. As for the people who follow these tariqats, they only get a little bit of refreshment from zikr when they sit for these zikrs. When they get up and leave there is no more power to control them. This is the sign of the approaching of Mahdi (alai). It is also the same for the Ulema (Doctors of Law and learned men). Their spirituality is also failing. Today there are very few real Ulema to address people and to be able to teach them what they may be in need of. The Ulema also is declining. All power today comes through the Naqshabandi Order because this power is growing and not decreasing, and it is able to affect the hearts of all people.
The Naqshabandi Tariqat also has Jaziba. Jazbat at Tariqat. Jaziba means attraction “Divine Attraction” it is the attraction that is to be able to carry the hearts of people and to control them. This only comes through the Naqshabandi Tariqat and to whoever having his heart connected to it. We hope that Allah Almighty makes His servants to connect their hearts. We are more than ever in need of that power today. We hope that quarreling and fighting may not separate people and that they become attracted to the way of Allah Almighty. People need to have peace in their hearts by the way of zikr. All tariqast today use only the zikr that is done with their tongues. It is only the Naqshabandi Tariqat which uses zikr through the hearts and only this “heart zikr” can control hearts. If zikr does not come through the heart of a person, Shaitan always reaches to that heart.
When there is zikr in one’s heart Shaitan must neccesarily escape and go away from that heart. Today the zikr of these other forty tariqats do not enter hearts. There is no authority for them to look into hearts and to control them. This is done today only by the way of the most distinguished Naqshabandi Tariqat. All Imams are using their power now only through the Naqshabandi Tariqat including Seyyadi Abdul Qadir Jilani (qad). He is also dressed by this power so that he may control his murids (followers) from his time till today. There is only one Imam or main pillar in the Qadiriya Tariqat and that Imam is Muhiyadeen Abdul Qadir Jilani (qad). He is also now using Naqshabandi power for controlling hearts. His contact is the Sultan ul Awliya (the highest ranking saint of the time) who is in power today for the whole world. His heart is in contact with this Sultan ul Awliya.
The Imams of the other forty tariqats are also reach to this power in the same way that Abdul Qadir Jilani (Qad) reaches this Naqshabandi Power and then they are controlling their murids through this way. If zikr does not reach to the hearts, the body does not surrender. If the body does not surrender then our hearts are not yet prepared to carry real Iman (faith). zikr is what drives away Shaitan to go out from the hearts. Neither heavenly trusts nor heavenly blessings can come to the hearts of murids as long as Shaitan is able to approach their hearts. When Shaitan is in their hearts they will have no “Openings”, (kashf). These murids will not able to look to Malakut and to the Heavens, and to everything that is veiled from them. They will not be able to look at all this except through the power and lights of zikr (noor-ul-zikr) which should reach to their hearts. If this light of zikr reaches to their hearts they will be able to look in front of them and behind them. They will also be able to look into the past and into the future. When they reach to that hidden knowledge (kashf), in whichever direction that they send that light (noor), that direction shall become clear and open to them and they shall be able to see.
Therefore, the Naqshabandi Tariqat is the way for all non-Muslims as Iman (faith) for them is coming through that way now. The other tariqats are now not able to carry non- Muslims except for a short time. After this short time the non-Muslims will leave. I am looking into so many tariqats. In Europe they are only carrying non-Muslims for a short period of time. Then after this short period these non-Muslims leave these tariqats and in the process leave Islam also. When they come and meet with the Naqshabandi Order, this Order is able to carry everyone from East to West. Mahdi (alai) shall come and we hope that he will come soon. The events that are happening today are carrying on to that big event of Dunya Zuhural -the last days. Mahdi (alaihisalam) should come after the great war. The war is to make preparation for his mission.
Therefore, first there must be a war, and then Mahdi (alaihisalam) will come. There is no power on earth that will be able to stop this great war except the miraculous power of Mahdi (alaisalam). It will cease only with the miraculous power of Islam. Almighty Allah will show this huge power which is Islam to the non-Muslims and to the unbelievers. Only one power, the power of Takbir from an ocean of power will be used. Only the words “Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar” will be used to stop all the technology that the non-Muslims and Kafirs (disbelievers) are trusting on to bring down Islam. Allah Almighty has given that authority to Mahdi (alaisalam) to bring down non-believers. The power of technology shall be taken away from them and their weapons will stop working.
It is only for one Saint who has been authorized that there is the power to switch on and off technology. He should switch it off. Mahdi (alaisalam) is authorized for that. During the coming of Mahdi (alai) there shall also be with him the last Sheikhh of the Naqshabandi Order. The Naqshabandi Order has 7007 Imams and all of them are in the same rank. In the Qadiri Tariqat there is only one Imam, who is Sultan ul Awliya Seyyadi Muhiyadeen. In Naqshabandi 7007 have this power. Yes and the last one shall be with Mahdi (alai). Mahdi (alai) shall look at the outward aspect, to arrange everything and every action according to shariat without leaving anything and anyone who are against it. He is not going to look to hearts. The hearts are left for the last Imam of the Naqshabandi Order. He would be able to look at the hearts of all the people and to bring them under Divine Control and Shaitan will be prohibited to approach their hearts.
Therefore now little by little spiritual power is reaching to the East and West. This spiritual power is working on hearts. Our mission is within limits, physically, but spiritually it is most powerful, as unlike a physical body, a spiritual body is not only one, but in number, they are as many as mankind may need. It is preparation time now, for hearts to accept zikrullah (remembrance of Allah) and to accept also Noor (light) and to work on the lights of Iman (faith) so that they will be prepared to be in the Divine Presence and in the Holy Presence of Rasoolullah (sal). We are now only making some short practices and showing some signs on it so that it will be easy to build the real power of the Naqshabandi Order. May Allah Almighty bless you and light up your hearts and our hearts with His Holy Zikr.
It is more important to be able to conquer hearts than to conquer the whole world. This is very important. The special attribute of Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihiwasalam) was to conquer the hearts of people. When hearts are conquered they come to surrender.

TRUTH OF TARIQAT and THE NAQSHABANDI ORDER
The ways of real faith, the ways that our Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sal) showed us through Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ral) and Seyyidina Ali (ral) and which were passed down through the Companions (Sahaba) of the Prophet Muhammad (sal) and Awliya (saints) to us are known as the Way of the Tariqats. While Shariah teaches us worship, Tariqat teaches us the way to keep Adab (good manners) with our Lord and to attain to His Divine Presence.
There are two kinds of Iman, faith. One is real and the other is imitative. The real brings light to the heart of a person, until then he is only imitating faith. The signs of real faith are three. The first is the ability to listen to the tasbih ( Zikr - paying praise and respects to their Lord) of all creatures. According to Quran there is nothing in existence that does not do tasbih (glorify the Lord), not even inanimate objects. The second is Allah's opening of his heart to the fountain of wisdom, giving knowledge of all things in existence, their position and their purpose. Thirdly, there are no more veils between him and Barzakh, the heavenly worlds. He may meet anyone , any Prophet or Saint from Barzakh without hindrance. Until these three signs appear know that you are veiled and not open to the light of Iman.
Tariqats are preparing Murids (follerwers) for real faith. The meaning of Murid is one who is asking for real faith. The Prophet (Sal) said to keep religion in this time is more difficult than keeping burning coal in one's hand. We must be patient in the face of adversity. Allah gives to those who are enduring disliked trials, endless reward. This is the way of real faith, like the way of Prophets and Awliya, to endure the badness of people. There are many veils between us and our heavenly positions. The training that a Murid undergoes at the hands of his Sheikh is to prepare him for the Divine Presence. As the Murid passes each trial, veils are removed by his Sheikh until finally all veils are removed and the Murid is in the Divine Presence. Only someone who has attained to the Divine Presence and has been authorized by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sal) has the knowledge to remove these veils.
Therefore, in Order for one to attain to the Divine Presence, one must give allegiance to the Sheikh of a Tariqat by taking Bayyath (Connection or Oath of Allegiance) from him and follow his teachings. When a Murid obeys his Sheikh's every command, in doing so he would be passing all the trials given to him and thereby achieving a position of trust with his Sheikh. When the Sheikh finds the Murid trustworthy, he rends the veils between the Murid and the Divine Presence. When each veil is removed the Murid is treated to a new experience where new horizons of knowledge are made available to him. With the removal of each veil also comes Certainty (yakeen). The Murid's faith becomes established in this manner and continues to do so until he completely submits to the will of Allah Almighty.
All Tariqats are ways to the Divine Presence. The Sheikh of a Tariqat is able to communicate with his Sheikh who is able to communicate with his Sheikh and so on till the end of the chain where the first Sheikh of the Tariqat is in communication with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sal). The Sheikh is also directly in communication with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sal). In addition to this, in attaining the Divine Presence the Sheikh was given higher and secret knowledge. By this method the Sheikh has perfect guidance in everything.
We are in darkness and in need of lights, the light of Prophethood to inform us what is ahead generally, and the light of Sainthood to guide us to our personal destinations. Our destination is Heaven. We can't see it unless by a distinguished Order from Allah and His Prophet (sal). Reality is a precious thing, not given to many. In this time, for a real connection to the Prophet Muhammad (Sal), the only way open is through the Naqshabandi Tariqat.
The Holy Prophet (Sal) said of the last times that, the only gate open would be the gate of Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (Ral) which is the origin of the Naqshabandi Tariqat. During the Hijra (migration) of the Holy Prophet (Sal) he was accompanied by Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ral) to Medina, they took refuge in the cave of Thaur from their antagonists. While in the cave, Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ral) in utmost fear for the plight of Islam, said to the Holy Prophet (sal) "our enemies are so many and we are only two." The Holy Prophet (Sal) replied "No, we are three." He meant that apart from the two of them there was also Allah Most High. At which instant was heard a myriad of voices saying "Allahu Allahu Allahu Haqq" which is the Oath of Allegiance to the Naqshabandi Tariqat. This was the birth of the Naqshabandi Tariqat.
At this moment Abu Bakr as Siddiq (ral) summoned the spirits of all those who were chosen on the Day of Promises to be the 7007 Imams of the Naqshabandi Tariqat into the cave. They in turn summoned the souls of all those who were chosen to be their Murids on the Day of Promises into the cave. The myriad of voices in the cave belonged to the souls of all future followers of the Naqshabandi Tariqat and who were with Allah Most High at that instant. Only those who were present in the cave of Thaur on that day would be destined to become followers of the most distinguished Naqshabandi Tariqat from that time till Qiyama. The Naqshabandi Order originated in the Heart of the Prophet Muhammad (sal), and its authority was passed down through Abu Bakr (ral) from one Master to the next in an unbroken chain of succession reaching into our time.
To the heart of Abu Bakr (ral), the first Khalipha, the Prophet passed on the full inner truth of his teachings. Since Abu Bakr, among all the Prophet?s (sal) companions, was the only one to receive the full inner truth from the Prophet's heart, the Naqshabandi Order inherits the fullest and finest of these Prophetic teachings. For as the Holy Prophet, in a well-known tradition, said: "Everything that has been poured into my heart I have poured into the heart of Abu Bakr." Abu Bakr (ral) was called Siddiq or The Completely Veracious One. The station of Siddiq is the highest of all stations after the Station of Prophethood. Whoever receives his spiritual education through the teachings of the Naqshabandi Order may hope to reach, finally, to the Station of Siddiq, the Station of Absolute Truthfulness.
In every religion this Station of Siddiq is the utmost horizon of devotion to the Truth, particularly in Islam. We thank Allah Almighty for His leading us toward that level, towards a brightness that is like the most shinning planet in the sky, Venus, among the other stars and planets. We are yet beginners seeking to reach that level and we pray that our Lord will not look at our shortcomings but grant us His Divine Help so that we may reach that distant goal.
Therefore, the Tariqat-an-Naqshbandiyya, (as it is passed down through Abu Bakr As- Siddiq), activates the souls of the Murids to whatever extent the Murid can bring his desires to accord with the desires of his Sheikh. The first step though is to start on the lowest level, using the way of the four Imams. If you do not come down to the lowest level you can't reach higher levels. Mowlana Sheikh Nazim (qad) says, "I am someone who has been authorized as guidance on that perfect way of the distinguished Naqshabandi Order. The Naqshabandi Tariqat is like a sky covering the whole world. No-one can escape out of it because it includes all the ways, it is perfect and it is the shortest." "I have been ordered to make clear to you, that anytime when anyone is losing control over themselves and is in a difficult position, they can be in contact with my heart immediately, if they just think about me, they will make a relation with me immediately. They just need to remember me, and that will make me look at him or her. That connection will make a power run through you quickly and you will be protected from falling into a dangerous situation. It is not my spiritual power, but I am in connection with a chain that is connected to our Lord through Saints. I am the last part of the chain which reaches you. It is like a plug which you can connect with electricity.
The Naqsh is a tattoo or an impression. If we haven't been patience enough to have this tattoo made, what about the Naqsh on the heart? The Naqsh of the heart is Allah. Whoever wants that Naqsh on his heart will come to the Naqshabandi Way. It is the highest way in all religions. Once that tattoo is made, man will be always with his Lord. At that time his mortal personality will be effaced and he will be a representative of his Lord among Mankind. He will leave his ego behind and become a pure, purified, private servant of his Lord. No more personality, his heart is stamped, Allah. The Seal of Prophets, Muhammad, (Peace be upon him) taught his companions, above all else association, by taking them as his companions, by entering them into association with him.
Accordingly, the Inheritors of the Prophet, the Naqshabandi Masters, stress the importance of ?Sohbet, association with the Sheikh, as the essential pillar in the training of seekers. Shah Naqshaband, the illustrious Imam of the line of Masters that we follow, the Imam after whom the Path is named and without whom there would be no Naqshabandi Tariqat, always used to repeat in his assemblies: "Our Way is Sohbet, association, and all good things result from congregating." He furthermore stated that if anyone attended an assembly of this way even for five or ten minutes, he would derive such immense spiritual benefit from that brief encounter so as to outweigh the benefits that would be gained by seven years of supererogatory worship.
Another important point to understand is that whenever any group of our brothers or sisters meet for the sake of Allah Almighty, unanimously joining their hearts with the Masters of this way, that meeting will attain to the level of an association with the kind of beneficial effects just described. Don't make the mistake of thinking that the only beneficial meeting is the one where the Sheikh is physically in attendance. When our brothers or sisters meet, one of them must be the channel for inspiration to come from the Sheikh, one must speak and the others listen; one must take from the Sheikh and the others, through him from the Sheikh.
The Naqshabandi Way is the Sufi Path adhering most closely to the practices of the Holy Prophet (Sal), and association in this manner was his way, and the way of his companions, as he always appointed a leader to preside in his absence.
There are two kinds of Iman, faith. One is real and the other is imitative. The real brings light to the heart of a person, until then he is only imitating faith. The signs of real faith are three. The first is the ability to listen to the tasbih ( Zikr - paying praise and respects to their Lord) of all creatures. According to Quran there is nothing in existence that does not do tasbih (glorify the Lord), not even inanimate objects. The second is Allah's opening of his heart to the fountain of wisdom, giving knowledge of all things in existence, their position and their purpose. Thirdly, there are no more veils between him and Barzakh, the heavenly worlds. He may meet anyone , any Prophet or Saint from Barzakh without hindrance. Until these three signs appear know that you are veiled and not open to the light of Iman.
Tariqats are preparing Murids (follerwers) for real faith. The meaning of Murid is one who is asking for real faith. The Prophet (Sal) said to keep religion in this time is more difficult than keeping burning coal in one's hand. We must be patient in the face of adversity. Allah gives to those who are enduring disliked trials, endless reward. This is the way of real faith, like the way of Prophets and Awliya, to endure the badness of people. There are many veils between us and our heavenly positions. The training that a Murid undergoes at the hands of his Sheikh is to prepare him for the Divine Presence. As the Murid passes each trial, veils are removed by his Sheikh until finally all veils are removed and the Murid is in the Divine Presence. Only someone who has attained to the Divine Presence and has been authorized by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sal) has the knowledge to remove these veils.
Therefore, in Order for one to attain to the Divine Presence, one must give allegiance to the Sheikh of a Tariqat by taking Bayyath (Connection or Oath of Allegiance) from him and follow his teachings. When a Murid obeys his Sheikh's every command, in doing so he would be passing all the trials given to him and thereby achieving a position of trust with his Sheikh. When the Sheikh finds the Murid trustworthy, he rends the veils between the Murid and the Divine Presence. When each veil is removed the Murid is treated to a new experience where new horizons of knowledge are made available to him. With the removal of each veil also comes Certainty (yakeen). The Murid's faith becomes established in this manner and continues to do so until he completely submits to the will of Allah Almighty.
All Tariqats are ways to the Divine Presence. The Sheikh of a Tariqat is able to communicate with his Sheikh who is able to communicate with his Sheikh and so on till the end of the chain where the first Sheikh of the Tariqat is in communication with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sal). The Sheikh is also directly in communication with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sal). In addition to this, in attaining the Divine Presence the Sheikh was given higher and secret knowledge. By this method the Sheikh has perfect guidance in everything.
We are in darkness and in need of lights, the light of Prophethood to inform us what is ahead generally, and the light of Sainthood to guide us to our personal destinations. Our destination is Heaven. We can't see it unless by a distinguished Order from Allah and His Prophet (sal). Reality is a precious thing, not given to many. In this time, for a real connection to the Prophet Muhammad (Sal), the only way open is through the Naqshabandi Tariqat.
The Holy Prophet (Sal) said of the last times that, the only gate open would be the gate of Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (Ral) which is the origin of the Naqshabandi Tariqat. During the Hijra (migration) of the Holy Prophet (Sal) he was accompanied by Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ral) to Medina, they took refuge in the cave of Thaur from their antagonists. While in the cave, Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ral) in utmost fear for the plight of Islam, said to the Holy Prophet (sal) "our enemies are so many and we are only two." The Holy Prophet (Sal) replied "No, we are three." He meant that apart from the two of them there was also Allah Most High. At which instant was heard a myriad of voices saying "Allahu Allahu Allahu Haqq" which is the Oath of Allegiance to the Naqshabandi Tariqat. This was the birth of the Naqshabandi Tariqat.
At this moment Abu Bakr as Siddiq (ral) summoned the spirits of all those who were chosen on the Day of Promises to be the 7007 Imams of the Naqshabandi Tariqat into the cave. They in turn summoned the souls of all those who were chosen to be their Murids on the Day of Promises into the cave. The myriad of voices in the cave belonged to the souls of all future followers of the Naqshabandi Tariqat and who were with Allah Most High at that instant. Only those who were present in the cave of Thaur on that day would be destined to become followers of the most distinguished Naqshabandi Tariqat from that time till Qiyama. The Naqshabandi Order originated in the Heart of the Prophet Muhammad (sal), and its authority was passed down through Abu Bakr (ral) from one Master to the next in an unbroken chain of succession reaching into our time.
To the heart of Abu Bakr (ral), the first Khalipha, the Prophet passed on the full inner truth of his teachings. Since Abu Bakr, among all the Prophet?s (sal) companions, was the only one to receive the full inner truth from the Prophet's heart, the Naqshabandi Order inherits the fullest and finest of these Prophetic teachings. For as the Holy Prophet, in a well-known tradition, said: "Everything that has been poured into my heart I have poured into the heart of Abu Bakr." Abu Bakr (ral) was called Siddiq or The Completely Veracious One. The station of Siddiq is the highest of all stations after the Station of Prophethood. Whoever receives his spiritual education through the teachings of the Naqshabandi Order may hope to reach, finally, to the Station of Siddiq, the Station of Absolute Truthfulness.
In every religion this Station of Siddiq is the utmost horizon of devotion to the Truth, particularly in Islam. We thank Allah Almighty for His leading us toward that level, towards a brightness that is like the most shinning planet in the sky, Venus, among the other stars and planets. We are yet beginners seeking to reach that level and we pray that our Lord will not look at our shortcomings but grant us His Divine Help so that we may reach that distant goal.
Therefore, the Tariqat-an-Naqshbandiyya, (as it is passed down through Abu Bakr As- Siddiq), activates the souls of the Murids to whatever extent the Murid can bring his desires to accord with the desires of his Sheikh.

HAQIQAT UL HAQQANI
THE QUALITY OF AULIYA
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is of the highest quality of Auliya so that the one who sits with Moulana Sheikh Nazim feels that he himself is in the rank of a very great Saint (Wali). This feeling is not from himself but from the light and spiritual power of Moulana Sheikh Nazim. He has been given power from Allah Almighty so that anyone who sits with him feels that he is so very near to Allah Almighty and to the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and that he is always going to be close to them. This is because the spiritual power of Moulana Sheikh Nazim immediately enters into one who sits with him which makes him to be always with Allah Almighty, the Prophets and the Saints.
When a person takes Bayyat from Moulana the spiritual power of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is always with that person immaterial of how far away in distance he is from the physical presence of Moulana. Moulana will be with him through every moment until that person reaches the grave. Until the day of judgement Moulana will be with that person. Even until he reaches in front of Allah Almighty will Moulana be with him.
When Allah Almighty questions this person Moulana shall answer all questions instead of him. In this time it is not possible to find this kind of Auliya like Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Moulana says that this quality of Auliya is hidden and all of them are presently with Sahib us Zaman Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) has now during our time left between the East and the West in all of this earth only Moulana Sheikh Nazim who is the only one able to give this type of knowledge and wisdom to the hearts of the people.
THE CONCEPT OF SULTAN UL AULIYA
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Sultan ul Auliya of this age. Most people think that the rank of Qutub ul Gauz is the highest because they have no knowledge of the rank of Sultan ul Auliya. Moulana Sheikh Nazim was given the rank of Qutub ul Gauz 30 years ago by his Grandsheik. When Grandsheik Abdullah Al Faiz ad Dhagistani (qas) passed away from this earth, Moulana Sheikh Nazim became the Sultan ul Auliya and
he then granted the rank of Qutub ul Gauz to someone else.
In actual fact the rank of Qutub ul Gauz in comparison to the rank of Sultan ul Auliya is very low. The station of Qutub ul Gauz entails the function of arranging the needs of the physical bodies of the people. For example to have their food and to have the mercies of Allah Almighty come to them. The Sultan ul Auliya however deals with the hearts, the soul and the spirit of humanity. He is the one who makes them always to be with Allah Almighty in the place where the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) made Sajda on the night of Mihraj.
The Sultan ul Auliya is the Khaliphatullah of the time and he represents the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) while the other Saints represent one of the other 124,000 prophets. As all the other Prophets are also represented by the Seal of Prophets Seyyidina Muhammad (peace be upon him), the Sultan ul Auliya of the time also has the Tajjalli and the power of all the 124,000 Prophets.
The representative of Allah Almighty during one particular age is only one and in this time and age Moulana Sheikh Nazim is this representative, and he is the Sultan ul Auliya and Khaliphatullah of this time.
As the Khaliphatullah or the representative of Allah Almighty in our time it is Moulana Sheikh Nazim who is inside the ka’abatullah. The ka’abatullah is also known as the Baithullah or the house of Allah. Allah Almighty is everywhere but especially in the Baithullah as He has Himself called it the house of Allah. For it to be called the house of the Lord, the Lord of the house must be in it. The Lord of the house is represented by His Khalifa who in this time is Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
The rank Sultan ul Auliya in Tariqat means the rank of the Saint who possesses the secret of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him). This secret was put in the heart of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) by Allah Almighty. Thereafter the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) transmitted this secret to the heart of Abu Bakr Siddique (Ral). Thereafter this secret has been transmitted right down to our times through the Golden Chain of Spiritual Transmission of the Naqshbandi Tariqat (Silsila).
There have not been many who have held the rank of Sultan ul Auliya from the time of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him). From the time of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) till now there are only forty of these representatives. This secret was passed down from the heart of Abu Bakr as Siddique (Ral) to Salman al Farsy and then from Siddique to Siddique, and now during our time Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the possessor of this secret.
In the spiritual chain of Moulana Sheikh Nazim all of them preceding him were the Sultan ul Auliya of their times-for example Salman al Farsy, Yusuf al Hamadani, Abdul Khaliq al Ghudjdawani, Shah Naqshaband, Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani etc. Apart from the Saints in this chain of spiritual transmission only Moulana Abdul Qadir Jeelani (qas) was of this rank.
This Divine secret of Allah Almighty which was given to the heart of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and transmitted from heart to heart from one Siddique to another is the Divine Secret and Divine Breath which Allah Almighty blew into Adam (alai).
THE RANK OF SULTAN UL AULIYA
Everything that you know of is under the spiritual control of the Sultan ul Auliya. He is the one who is in charge of all mankind in this universe. He is also in charge of all the world of Jinn’s and Angels as the Sultan of Mankind is also in charge of all the Jinn and of all Malaika (Angels). This Maqam (station) of Sultan ul Auliya is a Maqam related to the hearts. Not even a thought can be comprehended of the greatness of this Maqam. This Maqam in this time is related to Moulana Sheik Nazim.
Moulana has been given the power to be in every heart of every human being in this universe. He also has the immense power of being able to make the Divine Light of Allah Almighty and all the 124,000 Prophets to enter into the hearts and bodies of all humanity in just one moment.
In one moment Moulana is able not only to make an unbeliever to believe but also to be able to make him attain the rank of Siddique (the rank of Siddique is the highest rank of Sainthood), and to make him to always be a light of Allah Almighty to sit in front of Allah Almighty and to make him see and talk with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to comprehend the Holy Prophet’s spiritual rank. Moulana Sheikh Nazim has the power to make the unbeliever be like him in rank and position.
In the case of all the Prophets they received their secret from the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). In the same manner all Auliya during this time receive their secrets form the Khaliphatullah of this time. As Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Khaliphatullah of this time, it is he who gives all ranks and all stations to the Auliya. No one can become a Wali or Qutub unless Moulana Sheikh Nazim gives this rank to him. Moulana is the representative of Allah Almighty who possesses this power.
Everything in this Universe has been created for the honour and for the sake of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Everything that has been created in this Universe is created from the Light of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him).
Everything that we see in the first instance is the Light of Allah Almighty. Due to this reason we say “La ilaha illallah”. Then thereafter Allah Almighty reduced these lights to the Light of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) so that there would be an intermediate stage between all that we see and Allah Almighty. This is why we also say “Muhammad ur Rasulullah” in the kalima.
During every age there is a Saint responsible for all these lights. In our time this responsibility is given to Moulana Sheikh Nazim as he is now the representative of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and also of all the 124,000 prophets.
When Grandsheik Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) left this world this secret was given to Moulana Sheikh Nazim in Tave Muqallam in a very big ceremony, and from this time onwards he became responsible for all of creation - the Humans, Jinn’s, Angels, animals, trees, Earths, stars and everything that is created from the Light of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him).
Grandsheik Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) ordered Moulana Sheik Nazim to do about 10 to 12 seclusions (Khalwats) in a lot of places. When Moulana completed these seclusions, his physical body became annihilated and his body became a divine body which is related to Allah Almighty. It was only after this that this responsibility and secret was given to Moulana, as this is never given except under these circumstances.
THE DIVINE LIGHT OF ALLAH ALMIGHTY
Anybody who takes Bayyat from Moulana Sheikh Nazim, specially those from western countries will not leave this world except as Walis. Regarding this Moulana says “I have been ordered by Allah Almighty and by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to gather all the lights that are now coming from Western and European countries and to return them to their origin. Any European or Westerner or anyone else making Bayyat will not leave this Dunya except as an Auliya and he shall reach to the highest stations which Allah Almighty offers to beloved servants.”
Moulana also said “the light of one who makes Bayyat with me, specially those who are entering Islam now and who come to me, shall be so bright and powerful that even the sun shall appear dark besides their light. I shall make their light brighter and more powerful than the light of the sun. They shall shine in every place, all over the universes and all over the paradises”.
When Moulana Sheikh Nazim begins a lecture he does not only speak to those who are in front of him. Thousands of Auliya and millions of Jinn’s also listen to this same lecture of Moulana. Regarding this Moulana says “I am not only speaking to you. Perhaps you are only ten, or fifteen or a thousand, but hundreds of thousands of Auliya are here with me now, and millions of Jinn’s are now sitting with you and are listening to me. In my lectures I give three stations - one for you, one for the Auliya and one for the Jinn’s. In any place I sit and in every lecture that I open, the spirit of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the Divine Light and Essence of Allah Almighty is always with me and never leaves me”. This is the power and rank of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) once said that he had dressed Moulana Sheikh Nazim with the Ninety Nine Beautiful Names of Allah Almighty including also the Ismul Aalam, the Greatest Name of Allah Almighty. Therefore do not look at Moulana Sheikh Nazim as Moulana Sheikh Nazim, but look at him as a Tajjalli or Light of Allah Almighty.
Grandsheik Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) also said “It is not good to say that he is Allah as the followers of Jesus Christ say about Jesus. Instead you should say that “he is a Tajjalli or Light of Allah Almighty.” When he speaks, don’t listen to him as from Moulana Sheikh Nazim, but listen to him as if Allah Almighty is speaking to you, “ yes, He is the one who speaks to you”.
When the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) went on Mihraj he reached a certain point with Angel Gibreel (alai) when the Angel said to the Prophet (peace be upon him) “Only you can enter beyond this point. If I move further I will be destroyed and there shall thereafter be no existence for me”. The Prophet said “yes, I will enter” and he went beyond this point to the utmost limits. When he did this his personality was destroyed and he became a Light of Allah Almighty. By becoming this Light he reached to Allah Almighty.
This is also the same for every Sheik of the Naqshbandi Tariqat as they are dressed with the Divine Secret and the Divine Breath of Allah Almighty. Their bodies too have been destroyed and they have taken off their human personality. They too became a Light of Allah Almighty as it happened to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as they continued on their journey and reached to the very Throne of Allah Almighty. Moulana Sheikh Nazim is now dressed with these lights and therefore we should look at him as a Tajjalli of Allah Almighty.
Regarding this Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) said “I have ordered Moulana Sheikh Nazim into seclusion and made him reach this rank. He now has a face towards the creatures and a face towards Allah Almighty.” Therefore he is with Allah Almighty all the time and with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) all the time. They speak to him and he speaks to them at every moment so that he can translate to the People around him all that they are in need of from Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim does not need to have recourse to books in answering any question that his followers or visitors put to him. He knows exactly what they need to know from Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and he answers them immediately. He knows for what reason these people have come to him and for what reason they have visited him and he talks to each of them according to their capacity.
If their capacity is high then Moulana talks to them from the light of Allah Almighty. If their capacity is less than this he talks to them from the station of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and if their capacity is even less than this, he talks to them from the station of Mahdi (alai) or from the station of the Auliya. Whatever station that their capacity requires Moulana is able to talk from all these stations.
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) also said that Moulana Sheikh Nazim will be the channel through which the secret of the Quran will enter into the heart of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) has already dressed Moulana Sheikh Nazim in all these ranks. When Moulana Sheikh Nazim speaks he is not as if he is a man who looks at a map and describes some town or country. On the other hand Moulana is in all the ranks that are related to the secret of the Quran. When he describes this he does so with personal experience.
Not only does Moulana describe these ranks to his followers or visitors but also dresses them in these ranks so that they will not leave this world until they are dressed with these lights and all of them become Auliya. They shall not even be ordinary Walis. They shall be in a Maqam like that of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
THE TEACHER, THE MASTER AND THE INTERMEDIARY
Moulana Sheikh Nazim’s power is not given to him only for himself but for everyone who is related to him on the Day of Promises. All the people of the Umma now have been given by Allah Almighty to Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). All of them are also now under the tutelage of Moulana Sheikh Nazim. He is now teaching them and dressing them with Maqams (stations) so that when Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) comes, they will have the capacity to talk to Allah Almighty. At this time like Seyyidina Moosa (alai) the people will be able to talk to Allah Almighty. They shall also be able to talk to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to the 124,000 Prophets.
Allah Almighty has made Moulana Sheikh Nazim to be the teacher and the Master of these people and of the Auliya of this time so that they will all have the capacity to reach to these ranks during the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) and be able to sit in the lectures of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
If there wasn’t Moulana Sheikh Nazim between us and Seyyidina Mahdi (alai), or between us and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), or between us and Allah Almighty, no one would be able to reach to the Divine Knowledge’s or to connect up with the station of the Auliya or with the station of Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) or with the station of Allah Almighty. This is because Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the intermediary between us and these stations.
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) has said that it is now the duty of Moulana Sheik Nazim to collect and gather every human being who had been given to him on the Day of Promises.
Every human being is a light from the Light of Allah Almighty and from the Light of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The Khaliphatullah of this time, Moulana Sheikh Nazim is representing Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Therefore all humanity are also from the light of this Khaliphatullah. In our time this Saint is Moulana Sheikh Nazim. It is because of this reason that Moulana Sheikh Nazim was told on the Day of Promises by Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that these millions of people will be under his vision and that Moulana should look after them because their light is from the light of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
This is why people find themselves attracted to Moulana Sheikh Nazim. The light of Moulana is attracting their light like a drop of water falling from the clouds is drawn to fall into the ocean. This is why when we enter and sit at a lecture of Moulana Sheikh Nazim we feel like that drop of water merging into the ocean and forget Dunya and the life of this world.
THE CONQUEROR OF THE HEARTS
Moulana Sheikh Nazim (qas) will be the one who will be in charge of the hearts of people during the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). He will be the Spiritual Master and the Spiritual Father of all the people living in this time. The sword of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) will take away the heads of all those who reject what Moulana Sheikh Nazim will say in that time.
Moulana Sheikh Nazim (qas) has said that anyone who has made Bayyat with him and who is his mureed or follower and believes in him would be under his vision. They would always be kept safe in this world. Even if an atom bomb was to explode near him he would be protected and kept safe. A wind would be sent from paradise to this person so that he would be able to breathe the air from it and not from the nuclear waste in the atmosphere.
Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) have given to Moulana all the people of this time and during the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). All of them are under his vision and control. Moulana Sheikh Nazim does not even need to look at them from the station of Divine Vision as all of them are as if they are in his hand.
Moulana looks at them as if they are on the palm of his hand. He looks at them at every moment and he knows what they do at each moment. If bad situation is to come to a mureed of his, Moulana has the power to change it. Moulana’s purpose is to make this mureed to reach to Rizwanullah. Anything that obstructs the path of this mureed in reaching to this station of Rizwanullah would be taken away by Moulana Sheikh Nazim. He will clear all obstacles. If something bad is about to happen to a mureed of Moulana Sheikh Nazim, he would make a dua to Allah Almighty on behalf of this mureed and take this away from the mureed. In this manner Moulana Sheikh Nazim can enter into and change destiny (qasaullah) and the course of nature.
An example of this once happened at Mecca and Sheik Adnan relates this incident as follows: “We were in Mecca with Moulana Sheikh Nazim making Tawaf. The sun was out and there was not a cloud in sight. Moulana then prayed to Allah Almighty saying “Oh! Allah Almighty, I have come here as Your guest to please You. I would like it to rain so that I can take some Baraka from the rain that comes down at the Ka’aba. The clouds built up and it began to rain. It rained so hard that all Mecca began to look like a river.
THE LOVE FOUNTAIN OF THE HEARTS
Today the hearts of the Europeans and the Westerners are attracted to the
Naqshbandi Tariqat more than the Arabs and those from other countries. This is because their hearts are wide and open not narrow and closed. During the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai), Moulana Sheikh Nazim will be in charge of the hearts of all the people. Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) would be in charge of establishing the Sharia while Moulana Sheikh Nazim will be the love fountain and love centre for the people. He shall be entrusted with the opening out of the hearts of the people.
Every Auliya in this time sees Moulana Sheikh Nazim as a Light of Allah Almighty. No one can even imagine the spiritual shape of Moulana Sheikh Nazim, because all the heavens and the earth enter into him. The physical shape of the one who has the Divine secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) must also closely resemble the physical shape of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). As Moulana Sheikh Nazim has this secret, his physical shape closely resembles that of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
All those who come to visit Moulana Sheikh Nazim and sit with him will also gradually have their physical features slowly transformed. This is because they are not seated with an ordinary person. They are seated with an extraordinary power which is Moulana Sheikh Nazim. The more that a person sits with Moulana Sheikh Nazim, the more will his love increase and the higher will be his ranks and every Auliya in this time will have the shape of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
THE MIRACLE OF MIRACLES
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is one of the most remarkable Saints of all time. This type of Sainthood is not generally known by the people. All that they know is that somehow their hearts are attracted to him. People don’t even know why their hearts are attracted to Moulana in this manner. This is because he is one of the biggest Saints of all time.
Moulana does not generally perform miracles in the nature of flying in the air or walking on water as he says that even Shaitan has the power to perform these types of miracles. His miracles are however, of a different type. His miracles are to be found in the day to day life of his mureeds (followers). For example he is with every one of his mureeds at every given moment and all the time.
If at any time a mureed calls for him saying “Madad Ya Seyyidi” Moulana immediately sends a divine look to his heart and then the heart of this mureed is lit up with a Divine Light. This Light is sent by Moulana from his heart to the heart of this mureed. This mureed shall then be in a good situation and the bad thing that was to have happened to him would have been taken away from him.
Another of the miracles of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the miracle in the grave. When the Angels appear in the mureeds grave to question him, Moulana Sheikh Nazim will immediately be there and say to the Angels “Don’t question my follower, question me instead of him and I will answer on his behalf. “The Angels shall not be able to bear the Light of Moulana Sheikh Nazim and due to this they shall be forced to go away.
During the time of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) the Light of his heart came onto the hearts of the Sahabas around him. This is also so with Moulana Sheikh Nazim. The same Light as in the case of the Sahabas shall come from the heart of Moulana to the hearts of his followers. For as long as a person sits with Moulana Sheikh Nazim this very same light shall at every moment come onto the heart of this person. This is the case for every follower, guest or visitor of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
A person if even for only once visits Moulana Sheikh Nazim he shall not leave this life except as a believer. This is because, Allah Almighty shall ask this person “did you in this life of yours see any Sheiks?” He will then answer “Yes, I have seen Moulana Sheikh Nazim.” Then it will be said to him “Let Moulana Sheikh Nazim come” This is the miracle of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Still another miracle is that when on the Day of Judgement Allah Almighty asks as to what a person (a person who had taken Bayyat from Moulana Sheikh Nazim, believed in him and visited him) did during his lifetime, Moulana Sheikh Nazim shall act as this person’s lawyer and defender.
Moulana will not allow any of his mureeds to enter hell. He will not even let them to enter the Paradises that are known to the people. No , Moulana Sheikh Nazim will make them enter the Paradise that is related to Allah Almighty. The ordinary Paradises vanish into nothing when compared with the lights of this Paradise which is the Paradise that is related to Allah Almighty. Moulana Sheikh Nazim shall make all his followers to enter into this Paradise.
THE POSSESSOR OF THE PRESERVED TABLETS
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) said that the preserved tablet in each time and age is the Saint (Wali) that represents the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and Allah Almighty. In this time Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Saint who represents Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) therefore the Preserved Tablet in this time is Moulana Sheikh Nazim. All Auliya see him now in this rank. The knowledge that comes in from the Preserved Tablet is really from the light of the palm of the Saint who represents Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in this age. In this time age, this great Saint is Moulana Sheikh Nazim (qas).
Every time that Moulana Sheikh Nazim gives a lecture, he looks into the Preserved Tablet. Moulana generally has a habit of looking slightly upwards before commencing a lecture and then he continues delivering his lecture. This is because he reads what he is going to say from the Preserved Tablet. Moulana once said “when I pray, I look to see what is written in the Preserved Tablet for me to recite in Salat ul Luhr and also for every prayer I do the same to find out what I should recite during that prayer from the Holy Quran. I don’t walk from this place to that except by looking and reading the Preserved Tablet. “Moulana is the one who is in this time giving what Allah Almighty wants to give to any Saint and to all the people according to what is written for them in the Preserved Tablet. He is writing it to them bringing this knowledge both from Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana gives an answer to any question that is asked from him from the Preserved Tablet. Moulana says that there are many Preserved Tablets. There is a Preserved Tablet for the people, a Preserved Tablet for the Ulema, and there is a Preserved Tablet for the Auliya. Then there is a Preserved Tablet for the Khaliphatullah and a Preserved Tablet for the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Moulana says that he can talk from all the preserved Tablets because he is in all these ranks. This is because Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) gave to Moulana Sheikh Nazim the secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the representative of Allah Almighty and he possesses the Divine Secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He is also now the representative of Allah Almighty because of which he is present in every cell of the Universe. How can it be otherwise because he is representing Allah Almighty in this Universe. Therefore he has to be in every place, in every star and in every part andportion of the Universe. This is why he is in every cell of the Universe.
Moulana Sheikh Nazim can also be present in his shape and body in several places at the same time. Bayazid Bistami (Ral) (one of the Great Grandsheik’s of the Naqshbandi Tariqat) once multiplied himself and took on 24,000 bodies and prayed prayers at 24,000 different places. The people of all these towns and countries bore witness that they prayed with Bayazid Bistami (Ral) on that Friday.
Where Moulana Sheikh Nazim is concerned he is able to multiply himself and take on between 70,000 and 700,000 such bodies and to appear in as many places at the same time. Bayazid Bistami (Ral) lived a thousand years ago and the Tajjalli of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is stronger and more powerful and more precious as he now has the secrets of all the previous Grandsheik’s including that of Bayazid Bistami (Ral)in his heart. He also possesses the secrets of all the prophets and the secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in his heart. He is therefore the most remarkable Saint in the Divan of the Saints of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is not only in our earth but he is also in a lot of other places which are not related to our earth. He is present in all these other places and he is also present with us at the same time. For example, there is a mountain called the “Mountain of Qaf”. This mountain is not related to this Earth. There are many Auliya of high rank and station in this mountain. Moulana is the Imam of them all. He leads the prayer on this mountain on every Friday at Jummah.
Whenever Moulana Sheikh Nazim delivers a lecture to his followers or to his visitors he also is with the Auliya on this “Mountain of Qaf” making this very same lecture. This lecture is not only for those people who are listening to him at that moment but also to all those who have been related on the Day of Promises to Moulana Sheikh Nazim by having it written for them that they should listen to this lecture.
When Moulana Sheikh Nazim lectures to somebody, this lecture is not meant for that somebody only, but for all the people throughout the East and throughout the West.
His lectures are for all the Auliya and for the hearts of all the people in all the
Universes in our time. This is because all of them need the secret of Quran to reach to the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) who is going to be here soon.
NO QUESTIONING IN THE GRAVE
As for anyone who is related to Moulana Sheikh Nazim as a mureed the Angel of Death, Israel (alai) will have nothing to do with him. The soul of this mureed at the time of his death will be taken by Moulana Sheikh Nazim. He shall look at the mureed and immediately the soul of that mureed will leave his body. There is nothing for either the Angel of Death or for the Angels of the Grave to do with the mureeds of Moulana Sheikh Nazim. This is because it has been so ordered and it is by the Divine Power of Allah Almighty which has been given to him that Moulana Sheikh Nazim is so empowered. This is specially for Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
GRANTS GIVEN TO MOULANA SHEIKH NAZIM
Moulana Sheikh Nazim has been given the grant that when in a lecture he speaks of the ranks of the Prophets or the Auliya all the people who sit with him at this lecture will also be dressed in these same ranks as these Prophets and Auliya that Moulana Sheikh Nazim speaks of. It is for this reason that Moulana often talks in his lectures of Prophets and Auliya so that he is able to dress these ranks to all those who sit and listen to his lectures.
Moulana Sheikh Nazim also speaks about bad deeds when he addresses people in his lectures. The one who listens to this lecture shall not be asked of any bad deed or sin that Moulana happens to mention in the course of this lecture. He does not mention these bad deeds to stop the mureeds from doing them, but in order to take away his bad deeds or sins. He then puts his mureed in his Mercy Oceans then he throws them into the Mercy Oceans of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and finally into the Mercy Oceans of Allah Almighty.
All the bad deeds and sins concerning which Moulana speaks during the course of his lectures to the mureed will not be asked about from the mureed on the Day of Judgement. This is because Moulana Sheikh Nazim immediately makes a Shafa’ah and asks forgiveness from Allah Almighty regarding the sins and bad deeds that he has mentioned in his lecture. It is for this reason that you see Moulana Sheikh Nazim referring to so many sins and bad deeds during the course of a lecture so that he would be able to put his mureeds into his Mercy Oceans.
Do not look at Moulana Sheikh Nazim as you see him, as a body with his bodily functions of eating, drinking and sitting with you. Instead look at his other face, the face that is related to Allah Almighty and to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This other face of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Spiritual and Divine Power that is controlling all the Universes which include all the worlds of humanity, all the worlds of Jinn and all the worlds of Angels. All of them have been given to Moulana and he shall return all of them to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to Allah Almighty as they were given to him. He shall return all of them cleansed, without sins or bad deeds.
Moulana is not going to say by way of excuse that this particular person or that, was taken away from him by Shaitan. No, he is not going to say that. He is going to return all of them pure as they were given to him. Regarding this Moulana says “I have been dressed by Divine Power so that I will be able to return everyone to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to Allah Almighty as they gave them to me. I shall return them without sins and without bad deeds. I shall also dress them in all ranks, highly positioned ranks, ranks that are dressed by the Auliya and give them to Allah Almighty”. This is a grant and a miracle of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) said that even Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) is a follower and a student of Moulana Sheik Nazim because without the channel of Moulana Sheikh Nazim the secret of the Quran which has been passed down from the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to Abu Bakr as Siddique (Ral), and from him right down the Golden chain of Succession of the Naqshbandi Tariqat to Moulana Sheikh Nazim, cannot enter into the heart of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). Moulana Sheikh Nazim is going to teach Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) the knowledge of the Secret of the Quran. In this respect Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) is student of Moulana Sheikh Nazim. Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the key of the Secret of the Quran and he is the one who is going to plant this secret in the hearts of people.
ENDLESS HORIZONS
For many years Moulana Sheikh Nazim has been planting this Secret which is the Secret of the Quran in the hearts of all those who have left this Dunya and are now in Barzakh. Presently, Moulana Sheikh Nazim is planting this Secret in the hearts of the living people. To do this Moulana Sheikh Nazim goes out of his body every night. All the bodies which has a soul in them gather in front of Moulana and he plants the Secret of the Quran in them. This is one of Moulana’s duties till the coming of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
After the coming of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) and in the days of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) he will give the knowledge of the Secret of the Quran to selected people while he will let everyone else to know certain aspects of the Secret of the Quran. Moulana will give power also to some of his followers and certain people with him.
If one knows the Secret of the Quran and someone was to ask him about the sun, for example, he would be able to command the sun “come here” and the reality of the Sun shall come to him and he would be able to explain it to all the people who are sitting with him. If he wanted to explain to them about the moon, all he would have to do is to ask the moon to come to him and he would be able to explain to them about the moon which will appear in front of him by the Divine Power of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Sheik Adnan relates that once when he was in Mecca making Tawaf with Moulana Sheikh Nazim a person with a long beard came up to Moulana Sheikh Nazim, kissed his hand and continued to do Tawaf with Moulana. Moulana Sheikh Nazim then told those who were present with him on that occasion that this person was Khidr (alai) and that he had come specially to kiss Moulana’s hand and to perform Tawaf with him.
Sheik Adnan also relates that on another occasion when he was performing Tawaf around the Ka’aba with Moulana Sheikh Nazim a very old man came up to Moulana, kissed him, spoke to him and performed Tawaf with Moulana. Thereafter this old man disappeared without a trace. When Moulana was asked as to who this old man was, he answered that this man was one of the sons of the Adam before our Adam (alai).
There have been 124,000 Adams in all, with their sons of which our Adam (alai) was the last. This was one of the sons of the Adam before our Adam and he had come to kiss Moulana’s hand and to perform Tawaf with Moulana because he had had this promise on the Day of promises and that it was written in the Divine Tablet. Moulana as the Khaliphatullah of this time and as the representative of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) during this time is not only for us but also for all the Adams and their sons who came before us. He is the communicator who connects them with the world of Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim says that in comparison with the number of People in the other worlds, the people of this world are nothing. There are so many of them, Moulana says, that compared to the Sohbet (association) that he makes with the people in these other worlds and other Universes, the people in this Earth are so few.
Everyday the one who sits with Moulana constantly improves. He feels that his knowledge increases daily. This gets better and better until he reaches a stage where he will have nothing to do with himself. Instead of himself he will see Moulana Sheikh Nazim. When this happens Moulana immediately takes them and puts them in the cave with Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) as they are so powerful it is not possible for the other people of the Earth to bear them.
All that has been written here about Moulana Sheikh Nazim is very little in comparison to what he really is because the contents above are only a small part of the knowledge’s available about him. Apart from this fact there is also the reason that it is not possible for the human mind to grasp and comprehend the reality of the rank of the Sultan ul Auliya. Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the possessor of this rank in our age. This is why Moulana says, “No one really knows me. All that they know about me are only some aspects of me"
May Allah Almighty Bless Moulana Sheikh Nazim!
When a person takes Bayyat from Moulana the spiritual power of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is always with that person immaterial of how far away in distance he is from the physical presence of Moulana. Moulana will be with him through every moment until that person reaches the grave. Until the day of judgement Moulana will be with that person. Even until he reaches in front of Allah Almighty will Moulana be with him.
When Allah Almighty questions this person Moulana shall answer all questions instead of him. In this time it is not possible to find this kind of Auliya like Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Moulana says that this quality of Auliya is hidden and all of them are presently with Sahib us Zaman Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) has now during our time left between the East and the West in all of this earth only Moulana Sheikh Nazim who is the only one able to give this type of knowledge and wisdom to the hearts of the people.
THE CONCEPT OF SULTAN UL AULIYA
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Sultan ul Auliya of this age. Most people think that the rank of Qutub ul Gauz is the highest because they have no knowledge of the rank of Sultan ul Auliya. Moulana Sheikh Nazim was given the rank of Qutub ul Gauz 30 years ago by his Grandsheik. When Grandsheik Abdullah Al Faiz ad Dhagistani (qas) passed away from this earth, Moulana Sheikh Nazim became the Sultan ul Auliya and
he then granted the rank of Qutub ul Gauz to someone else.
In actual fact the rank of Qutub ul Gauz in comparison to the rank of Sultan ul Auliya is very low. The station of Qutub ul Gauz entails the function of arranging the needs of the physical bodies of the people. For example to have their food and to have the mercies of Allah Almighty come to them. The Sultan ul Auliya however deals with the hearts, the soul and the spirit of humanity. He is the one who makes them always to be with Allah Almighty in the place where the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) made Sajda on the night of Mihraj.
The Sultan ul Auliya is the Khaliphatullah of the time and he represents the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) while the other Saints represent one of the other 124,000 prophets. As all the other Prophets are also represented by the Seal of Prophets Seyyidina Muhammad (peace be upon him), the Sultan ul Auliya of the time also has the Tajjalli and the power of all the 124,000 Prophets.
The representative of Allah Almighty during one particular age is only one and in this time and age Moulana Sheikh Nazim is this representative, and he is the Sultan ul Auliya and Khaliphatullah of this time.
As the Khaliphatullah or the representative of Allah Almighty in our time it is Moulana Sheikh Nazim who is inside the ka’abatullah. The ka’abatullah is also known as the Baithullah or the house of Allah. Allah Almighty is everywhere but especially in the Baithullah as He has Himself called it the house of Allah. For it to be called the house of the Lord, the Lord of the house must be in it. The Lord of the house is represented by His Khalifa who in this time is Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
The rank Sultan ul Auliya in Tariqat means the rank of the Saint who possesses the secret of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him). This secret was put in the heart of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) by Allah Almighty. Thereafter the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) transmitted this secret to the heart of Abu Bakr Siddique (Ral). Thereafter this secret has been transmitted right down to our times through the Golden Chain of Spiritual Transmission of the Naqshbandi Tariqat (Silsila).
There have not been many who have held the rank of Sultan ul Auliya from the time of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him). From the time of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) till now there are only forty of these representatives. This secret was passed down from the heart of Abu Bakr as Siddique (Ral) to Salman al Farsy and then from Siddique to Siddique, and now during our time Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the possessor of this secret.
In the spiritual chain of Moulana Sheikh Nazim all of them preceding him were the Sultan ul Auliya of their times-for example Salman al Farsy, Yusuf al Hamadani, Abdul Khaliq al Ghudjdawani, Shah Naqshaband, Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani etc. Apart from the Saints in this chain of spiritual transmission only Moulana Abdul Qadir Jeelani (qas) was of this rank.
This Divine secret of Allah Almighty which was given to the heart of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and transmitted from heart to heart from one Siddique to another is the Divine Secret and Divine Breath which Allah Almighty blew into Adam (alai).
THE RANK OF SULTAN UL AULIYA
Everything that you know of is under the spiritual control of the Sultan ul Auliya. He is the one who is in charge of all mankind in this universe. He is also in charge of all the world of Jinn’s and Angels as the Sultan of Mankind is also in charge of all the Jinn and of all Malaika (Angels). This Maqam (station) of Sultan ul Auliya is a Maqam related to the hearts. Not even a thought can be comprehended of the greatness of this Maqam. This Maqam in this time is related to Moulana Sheik Nazim.
Moulana has been given the power to be in every heart of every human being in this universe. He also has the immense power of being able to make the Divine Light of Allah Almighty and all the 124,000 Prophets to enter into the hearts and bodies of all humanity in just one moment.
In one moment Moulana is able not only to make an unbeliever to believe but also to be able to make him attain the rank of Siddique (the rank of Siddique is the highest rank of Sainthood), and to make him to always be a light of Allah Almighty to sit in front of Allah Almighty and to make him see and talk with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to comprehend the Holy Prophet’s spiritual rank. Moulana Sheikh Nazim has the power to make the unbeliever be like him in rank and position.
In the case of all the Prophets they received their secret from the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). In the same manner all Auliya during this time receive their secrets form the Khaliphatullah of this time. As Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Khaliphatullah of this time, it is he who gives all ranks and all stations to the Auliya. No one can become a Wali or Qutub unless Moulana Sheikh Nazim gives this rank to him. Moulana is the representative of Allah Almighty who possesses this power.
Everything in this Universe has been created for the honour and for the sake of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Everything that has been created in this Universe is created from the Light of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him).
Everything that we see in the first instance is the Light of Allah Almighty. Due to this reason we say “La ilaha illallah”. Then thereafter Allah Almighty reduced these lights to the Light of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) so that there would be an intermediate stage between all that we see and Allah Almighty. This is why we also say “Muhammad ur Rasulullah” in the kalima.
During every age there is a Saint responsible for all these lights. In our time this responsibility is given to Moulana Sheikh Nazim as he is now the representative of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and also of all the 124,000 prophets.
When Grandsheik Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) left this world this secret was given to Moulana Sheikh Nazim in Tave Muqallam in a very big ceremony, and from this time onwards he became responsible for all of creation - the Humans, Jinn’s, Angels, animals, trees, Earths, stars and everything that is created from the Light of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him).
Grandsheik Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) ordered Moulana Sheik Nazim to do about 10 to 12 seclusions (Khalwats) in a lot of places. When Moulana completed these seclusions, his physical body became annihilated and his body became a divine body which is related to Allah Almighty. It was only after this that this responsibility and secret was given to Moulana, as this is never given except under these circumstances.
THE DIVINE LIGHT OF ALLAH ALMIGHTY
Anybody who takes Bayyat from Moulana Sheikh Nazim, specially those from western countries will not leave this world except as Walis. Regarding this Moulana says “I have been ordered by Allah Almighty and by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to gather all the lights that are now coming from Western and European countries and to return them to their origin. Any European or Westerner or anyone else making Bayyat will not leave this Dunya except as an Auliya and he shall reach to the highest stations which Allah Almighty offers to beloved servants.”
Moulana also said “the light of one who makes Bayyat with me, specially those who are entering Islam now and who come to me, shall be so bright and powerful that even the sun shall appear dark besides their light. I shall make their light brighter and more powerful than the light of the sun. They shall shine in every place, all over the universes and all over the paradises”.
When Moulana Sheikh Nazim begins a lecture he does not only speak to those who are in front of him. Thousands of Auliya and millions of Jinn’s also listen to this same lecture of Moulana. Regarding this Moulana says “I am not only speaking to you. Perhaps you are only ten, or fifteen or a thousand, but hundreds of thousands of Auliya are here with me now, and millions of Jinn’s are now sitting with you and are listening to me. In my lectures I give three stations - one for you, one for the Auliya and one for the Jinn’s. In any place I sit and in every lecture that I open, the spirit of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the Divine Light and Essence of Allah Almighty is always with me and never leaves me”. This is the power and rank of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) once said that he had dressed Moulana Sheikh Nazim with the Ninety Nine Beautiful Names of Allah Almighty including also the Ismul Aalam, the Greatest Name of Allah Almighty. Therefore do not look at Moulana Sheikh Nazim as Moulana Sheikh Nazim, but look at him as a Tajjalli or Light of Allah Almighty.
Grandsheik Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) also said “It is not good to say that he is Allah as the followers of Jesus Christ say about Jesus. Instead you should say that “he is a Tajjalli or Light of Allah Almighty.” When he speaks, don’t listen to him as from Moulana Sheikh Nazim, but listen to him as if Allah Almighty is speaking to you, “ yes, He is the one who speaks to you”.
When the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) went on Mihraj he reached a certain point with Angel Gibreel (alai) when the Angel said to the Prophet (peace be upon him) “Only you can enter beyond this point. If I move further I will be destroyed and there shall thereafter be no existence for me”. The Prophet said “yes, I will enter” and he went beyond this point to the utmost limits. When he did this his personality was destroyed and he became a Light of Allah Almighty. By becoming this Light he reached to Allah Almighty.
This is also the same for every Sheik of the Naqshbandi Tariqat as they are dressed with the Divine Secret and the Divine Breath of Allah Almighty. Their bodies too have been destroyed and they have taken off their human personality. They too became a Light of Allah Almighty as it happened to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as they continued on their journey and reached to the very Throne of Allah Almighty. Moulana Sheikh Nazim is now dressed with these lights and therefore we should look at him as a Tajjalli of Allah Almighty.
Regarding this Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) said “I have ordered Moulana Sheikh Nazim into seclusion and made him reach this rank. He now has a face towards the creatures and a face towards Allah Almighty.” Therefore he is with Allah Almighty all the time and with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) all the time. They speak to him and he speaks to them at every moment so that he can translate to the People around him all that they are in need of from Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim does not need to have recourse to books in answering any question that his followers or visitors put to him. He knows exactly what they need to know from Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and he answers them immediately. He knows for what reason these people have come to him and for what reason they have visited him and he talks to each of them according to their capacity.
If their capacity is high then Moulana talks to them from the light of Allah Almighty. If their capacity is less than this he talks to them from the station of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and if their capacity is even less than this, he talks to them from the station of Mahdi (alai) or from the station of the Auliya. Whatever station that their capacity requires Moulana is able to talk from all these stations.
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) also said that Moulana Sheikh Nazim will be the channel through which the secret of the Quran will enter into the heart of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) has already dressed Moulana Sheikh Nazim in all these ranks. When Moulana Sheikh Nazim speaks he is not as if he is a man who looks at a map and describes some town or country. On the other hand Moulana is in all the ranks that are related to the secret of the Quran. When he describes this he does so with personal experience.
Not only does Moulana describe these ranks to his followers or visitors but also dresses them in these ranks so that they will not leave this world until they are dressed with these lights and all of them become Auliya. They shall not even be ordinary Walis. They shall be in a Maqam like that of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
THE TEACHER, THE MASTER AND THE INTERMEDIARY
Moulana Sheikh Nazim’s power is not given to him only for himself but for everyone who is related to him on the Day of Promises. All the people of the Umma now have been given by Allah Almighty to Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). All of them are also now under the tutelage of Moulana Sheikh Nazim. He is now teaching them and dressing them with Maqams (stations) so that when Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) comes, they will have the capacity to talk to Allah Almighty. At this time like Seyyidina Moosa (alai) the people will be able to talk to Allah Almighty. They shall also be able to talk to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to the 124,000 Prophets.
Allah Almighty has made Moulana Sheikh Nazim to be the teacher and the Master of these people and of the Auliya of this time so that they will all have the capacity to reach to these ranks during the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) and be able to sit in the lectures of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
If there wasn’t Moulana Sheikh Nazim between us and Seyyidina Mahdi (alai), or between us and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), or between us and Allah Almighty, no one would be able to reach to the Divine Knowledge’s or to connect up with the station of the Auliya or with the station of Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) or with the station of Allah Almighty. This is because Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the intermediary between us and these stations.
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) has said that it is now the duty of Moulana Sheik Nazim to collect and gather every human being who had been given to him on the Day of Promises.
Every human being is a light from the Light of Allah Almighty and from the Light of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The Khaliphatullah of this time, Moulana Sheikh Nazim is representing Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Therefore all humanity are also from the light of this Khaliphatullah. In our time this Saint is Moulana Sheikh Nazim. It is because of this reason that Moulana Sheikh Nazim was told on the Day of Promises by Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that these millions of people will be under his vision and that Moulana should look after them because their light is from the light of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
This is why people find themselves attracted to Moulana Sheikh Nazim. The light of Moulana is attracting their light like a drop of water falling from the clouds is drawn to fall into the ocean. This is why when we enter and sit at a lecture of Moulana Sheikh Nazim we feel like that drop of water merging into the ocean and forget Dunya and the life of this world.
THE CONQUEROR OF THE HEARTS
Moulana Sheikh Nazim (qas) will be the one who will be in charge of the hearts of people during the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). He will be the Spiritual Master and the Spiritual Father of all the people living in this time. The sword of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) will take away the heads of all those who reject what Moulana Sheikh Nazim will say in that time.
Moulana Sheikh Nazim (qas) has said that anyone who has made Bayyat with him and who is his mureed or follower and believes in him would be under his vision. They would always be kept safe in this world. Even if an atom bomb was to explode near him he would be protected and kept safe. A wind would be sent from paradise to this person so that he would be able to breathe the air from it and not from the nuclear waste in the atmosphere.
Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) have given to Moulana all the people of this time and during the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). All of them are under his vision and control. Moulana Sheikh Nazim does not even need to look at them from the station of Divine Vision as all of them are as if they are in his hand.
Moulana looks at them as if they are on the palm of his hand. He looks at them at every moment and he knows what they do at each moment. If bad situation is to come to a mureed of his, Moulana has the power to change it. Moulana’s purpose is to make this mureed to reach to Rizwanullah. Anything that obstructs the path of this mureed in reaching to this station of Rizwanullah would be taken away by Moulana Sheikh Nazim. He will clear all obstacles. If something bad is about to happen to a mureed of Moulana Sheikh Nazim, he would make a dua to Allah Almighty on behalf of this mureed and take this away from the mureed. In this manner Moulana Sheikh Nazim can enter into and change destiny (qasaullah) and the course of nature.
An example of this once happened at Mecca and Sheik Adnan relates this incident as follows: “We were in Mecca with Moulana Sheikh Nazim making Tawaf. The sun was out and there was not a cloud in sight. Moulana then prayed to Allah Almighty saying “Oh! Allah Almighty, I have come here as Your guest to please You. I would like it to rain so that I can take some Baraka from the rain that comes down at the Ka’aba. The clouds built up and it began to rain. It rained so hard that all Mecca began to look like a river.
THE LOVE FOUNTAIN OF THE HEARTS
Today the hearts of the Europeans and the Westerners are attracted to the
Naqshbandi Tariqat more than the Arabs and those from other countries. This is because their hearts are wide and open not narrow and closed. During the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai), Moulana Sheikh Nazim will be in charge of the hearts of all the people. Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) would be in charge of establishing the Sharia while Moulana Sheikh Nazim will be the love fountain and love centre for the people. He shall be entrusted with the opening out of the hearts of the people.
Every Auliya in this time sees Moulana Sheikh Nazim as a Light of Allah Almighty. No one can even imagine the spiritual shape of Moulana Sheikh Nazim, because all the heavens and the earth enter into him. The physical shape of the one who has the Divine secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) must also closely resemble the physical shape of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). As Moulana Sheikh Nazim has this secret, his physical shape closely resembles that of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
All those who come to visit Moulana Sheikh Nazim and sit with him will also gradually have their physical features slowly transformed. This is because they are not seated with an ordinary person. They are seated with an extraordinary power which is Moulana Sheikh Nazim. The more that a person sits with Moulana Sheikh Nazim, the more will his love increase and the higher will be his ranks and every Auliya in this time will have the shape of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
THE MIRACLE OF MIRACLES
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is one of the most remarkable Saints of all time. This type of Sainthood is not generally known by the people. All that they know is that somehow their hearts are attracted to him. People don’t even know why their hearts are attracted to Moulana in this manner. This is because he is one of the biggest Saints of all time.
Moulana does not generally perform miracles in the nature of flying in the air or walking on water as he says that even Shaitan has the power to perform these types of miracles. His miracles are however, of a different type. His miracles are to be found in the day to day life of his mureeds (followers). For example he is with every one of his mureeds at every given moment and all the time.
If at any time a mureed calls for him saying “Madad Ya Seyyidi” Moulana immediately sends a divine look to his heart and then the heart of this mureed is lit up with a Divine Light. This Light is sent by Moulana from his heart to the heart of this mureed. This mureed shall then be in a good situation and the bad thing that was to have happened to him would have been taken away from him.
Another of the miracles of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the miracle in the grave. When the Angels appear in the mureeds grave to question him, Moulana Sheikh Nazim will immediately be there and say to the Angels “Don’t question my follower, question me instead of him and I will answer on his behalf. “The Angels shall not be able to bear the Light of Moulana Sheikh Nazim and due to this they shall be forced to go away.
During the time of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) the Light of his heart came onto the hearts of the Sahabas around him. This is also so with Moulana Sheikh Nazim. The same Light as in the case of the Sahabas shall come from the heart of Moulana to the hearts of his followers. For as long as a person sits with Moulana Sheikh Nazim this very same light shall at every moment come onto the heart of this person. This is the case for every follower, guest or visitor of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
A person if even for only once visits Moulana Sheikh Nazim he shall not leave this life except as a believer. This is because, Allah Almighty shall ask this person “did you in this life of yours see any Sheiks?” He will then answer “Yes, I have seen Moulana Sheikh Nazim.” Then it will be said to him “Let Moulana Sheikh Nazim come” This is the miracle of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Still another miracle is that when on the Day of Judgement Allah Almighty asks as to what a person (a person who had taken Bayyat from Moulana Sheikh Nazim, believed in him and visited him) did during his lifetime, Moulana Sheikh Nazim shall act as this person’s lawyer and defender.
Moulana will not allow any of his mureeds to enter hell. He will not even let them to enter the Paradises that are known to the people. No , Moulana Sheikh Nazim will make them enter the Paradise that is related to Allah Almighty. The ordinary Paradises vanish into nothing when compared with the lights of this Paradise which is the Paradise that is related to Allah Almighty. Moulana Sheikh Nazim shall make all his followers to enter into this Paradise.
THE POSSESSOR OF THE PRESERVED TABLETS
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) said that the preserved tablet in each time and age is the Saint (Wali) that represents the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and Allah Almighty. In this time Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Saint who represents Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) therefore the Preserved Tablet in this time is Moulana Sheikh Nazim. All Auliya see him now in this rank. The knowledge that comes in from the Preserved Tablet is really from the light of the palm of the Saint who represents Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in this age. In this time age, this great Saint is Moulana Sheikh Nazim (qas).
Every time that Moulana Sheikh Nazim gives a lecture, he looks into the Preserved Tablet. Moulana generally has a habit of looking slightly upwards before commencing a lecture and then he continues delivering his lecture. This is because he reads what he is going to say from the Preserved Tablet. Moulana once said “when I pray, I look to see what is written in the Preserved Tablet for me to recite in Salat ul Luhr and also for every prayer I do the same to find out what I should recite during that prayer from the Holy Quran. I don’t walk from this place to that except by looking and reading the Preserved Tablet. “Moulana is the one who is in this time giving what Allah Almighty wants to give to any Saint and to all the people according to what is written for them in the Preserved Tablet. He is writing it to them bringing this knowledge both from Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana gives an answer to any question that is asked from him from the Preserved Tablet. Moulana says that there are many Preserved Tablets. There is a Preserved Tablet for the people, a Preserved Tablet for the Ulema, and there is a Preserved Tablet for the Auliya. Then there is a Preserved Tablet for the Khaliphatullah and a Preserved Tablet for the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Moulana says that he can talk from all the preserved Tablets because he is in all these ranks. This is because Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) gave to Moulana Sheikh Nazim the secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the representative of Allah Almighty and he possesses the Divine Secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He is also now the representative of Allah Almighty because of which he is present in every cell of the Universe. How can it be otherwise because he is representing Allah Almighty in this Universe. Therefore he has to be in every place, in every star and in every part andportion of the Universe. This is why he is in every cell of the Universe.
Moulana Sheikh Nazim can also be present in his shape and body in several places at the same time. Bayazid Bistami (Ral) (one of the Great Grandsheik’s of the Naqshbandi Tariqat) once multiplied himself and took on 24,000 bodies and prayed prayers at 24,000 different places. The people of all these towns and countries bore witness that they prayed with Bayazid Bistami (Ral) on that Friday.
Where Moulana Sheikh Nazim is concerned he is able to multiply himself and take on between 70,000 and 700,000 such bodies and to appear in as many places at the same time. Bayazid Bistami (Ral) lived a thousand years ago and the Tajjalli of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is stronger and more powerful and more precious as he now has the secrets of all the previous Grandsheik’s including that of Bayazid Bistami (Ral)in his heart. He also possesses the secrets of all the prophets and the secret of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in his heart. He is therefore the most remarkable Saint in the Divan of the Saints of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim is not only in our earth but he is also in a lot of other places which are not related to our earth. He is present in all these other places and he is also present with us at the same time. For example, there is a mountain called the “Mountain of Qaf”. This mountain is not related to this Earth. There are many Auliya of high rank and station in this mountain. Moulana is the Imam of them all. He leads the prayer on this mountain on every Friday at Jummah.
Whenever Moulana Sheikh Nazim delivers a lecture to his followers or to his visitors he also is with the Auliya on this “Mountain of Qaf” making this very same lecture. This lecture is not only for those people who are listening to him at that moment but also to all those who have been related on the Day of Promises to Moulana Sheikh Nazim by having it written for them that they should listen to this lecture.
When Moulana Sheikh Nazim lectures to somebody, this lecture is not meant for that somebody only, but for all the people throughout the East and throughout the West.
His lectures are for all the Auliya and for the hearts of all the people in all the
Universes in our time. This is because all of them need the secret of Quran to reach to the time of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) who is going to be here soon.
NO QUESTIONING IN THE GRAVE
As for anyone who is related to Moulana Sheikh Nazim as a mureed the Angel of Death, Israel (alai) will have nothing to do with him. The soul of this mureed at the time of his death will be taken by Moulana Sheikh Nazim. He shall look at the mureed and immediately the soul of that mureed will leave his body. There is nothing for either the Angel of Death or for the Angels of the Grave to do with the mureeds of Moulana Sheikh Nazim. This is because it has been so ordered and it is by the Divine Power of Allah Almighty which has been given to him that Moulana Sheikh Nazim is so empowered. This is specially for Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
GRANTS GIVEN TO MOULANA SHEIKH NAZIM
Moulana Sheikh Nazim has been given the grant that when in a lecture he speaks of the ranks of the Prophets or the Auliya all the people who sit with him at this lecture will also be dressed in these same ranks as these Prophets and Auliya that Moulana Sheikh Nazim speaks of. It is for this reason that Moulana often talks in his lectures of Prophets and Auliya so that he is able to dress these ranks to all those who sit and listen to his lectures.
Moulana Sheikh Nazim also speaks about bad deeds when he addresses people in his lectures. The one who listens to this lecture shall not be asked of any bad deed or sin that Moulana happens to mention in the course of this lecture. He does not mention these bad deeds to stop the mureeds from doing them, but in order to take away his bad deeds or sins. He then puts his mureed in his Mercy Oceans then he throws them into the Mercy Oceans of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and finally into the Mercy Oceans of Allah Almighty.
All the bad deeds and sins concerning which Moulana speaks during the course of his lectures to the mureed will not be asked about from the mureed on the Day of Judgement. This is because Moulana Sheikh Nazim immediately makes a Shafa’ah and asks forgiveness from Allah Almighty regarding the sins and bad deeds that he has mentioned in his lecture. It is for this reason that you see Moulana Sheikh Nazim referring to so many sins and bad deeds during the course of a lecture so that he would be able to put his mureeds into his Mercy Oceans.
Do not look at Moulana Sheikh Nazim as you see him, as a body with his bodily functions of eating, drinking and sitting with you. Instead look at his other face, the face that is related to Allah Almighty and to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This other face of Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the Spiritual and Divine Power that is controlling all the Universes which include all the worlds of humanity, all the worlds of Jinn and all the worlds of Angels. All of them have been given to Moulana and he shall return all of them to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to Allah Almighty as they were given to him. He shall return all of them cleansed, without sins or bad deeds.
Moulana is not going to say by way of excuse that this particular person or that, was taken away from him by Shaitan. No, he is not going to say that. He is going to return all of them pure as they were given to him. Regarding this Moulana says “I have been dressed by Divine Power so that I will be able to return everyone to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to Allah Almighty as they gave them to me. I shall return them without sins and without bad deeds. I shall also dress them in all ranks, highly positioned ranks, ranks that are dressed by the Auliya and give them to Allah Almighty”. This is a grant and a miracle of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Grandsheik Moulana Abdullah Dhagistani (qas) said that even Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) is a follower and a student of Moulana Sheik Nazim because without the channel of Moulana Sheikh Nazim the secret of the Quran which has been passed down from the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to Abu Bakr as Siddique (Ral), and from him right down the Golden chain of Succession of the Naqshbandi Tariqat to Moulana Sheikh Nazim, cannot enter into the heart of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai). Moulana Sheikh Nazim is going to teach Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) the knowledge of the Secret of the Quran. In this respect Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) is student of Moulana Sheikh Nazim. Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the key of the Secret of the Quran and he is the one who is going to plant this secret in the hearts of people.
ENDLESS HORIZONS
For many years Moulana Sheikh Nazim has been planting this Secret which is the Secret of the Quran in the hearts of all those who have left this Dunya and are now in Barzakh. Presently, Moulana Sheikh Nazim is planting this Secret in the hearts of the living people. To do this Moulana Sheikh Nazim goes out of his body every night. All the bodies which has a soul in them gather in front of Moulana and he plants the Secret of the Quran in them. This is one of Moulana’s duties till the coming of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai).
After the coming of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) and in the days of Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) he will give the knowledge of the Secret of the Quran to selected people while he will let everyone else to know certain aspects of the Secret of the Quran. Moulana will give power also to some of his followers and certain people with him.
If one knows the Secret of the Quran and someone was to ask him about the sun, for example, he would be able to command the sun “come here” and the reality of the Sun shall come to him and he would be able to explain it to all the people who are sitting with him. If he wanted to explain to them about the moon, all he would have to do is to ask the moon to come to him and he would be able to explain to them about the moon which will appear in front of him by the Divine Power of Moulana Sheikh Nazim.
Sheik Adnan relates that once when he was in Mecca making Tawaf with Moulana Sheikh Nazim a person with a long beard came up to Moulana Sheikh Nazim, kissed his hand and continued to do Tawaf with Moulana. Moulana Sheikh Nazim then told those who were present with him on that occasion that this person was Khidr (alai) and that he had come specially to kiss Moulana’s hand and to perform Tawaf with him.
Sheik Adnan also relates that on another occasion when he was performing Tawaf around the Ka’aba with Moulana Sheikh Nazim a very old man came up to Moulana, kissed him, spoke to him and performed Tawaf with Moulana. Thereafter this old man disappeared without a trace. When Moulana was asked as to who this old man was, he answered that this man was one of the sons of the Adam before our Adam (alai).
There have been 124,000 Adams in all, with their sons of which our Adam (alai) was the last. This was one of the sons of the Adam before our Adam and he had come to kiss Moulana’s hand and to perform Tawaf with Moulana because he had had this promise on the Day of promises and that it was written in the Divine Tablet. Moulana as the Khaliphatullah of this time and as the representative of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) during this time is not only for us but also for all the Adams and their sons who came before us. He is the communicator who connects them with the world of Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Moulana Sheikh Nazim says that in comparison with the number of People in the other worlds, the people of this world are nothing. There are so many of them, Moulana says, that compared to the Sohbet (association) that he makes with the people in these other worlds and other Universes, the people in this Earth are so few.
Everyday the one who sits with Moulana constantly improves. He feels that his knowledge increases daily. This gets better and better until he reaches a stage where he will have nothing to do with himself. Instead of himself he will see Moulana Sheikh Nazim. When this happens Moulana immediately takes them and puts them in the cave with Seyyidina Mahdi (alai) as they are so powerful it is not possible for the other people of the Earth to bear them.
All that has been written here about Moulana Sheikh Nazim is very little in comparison to what he really is because the contents above are only a small part of the knowledge’s available about him. Apart from this fact there is also the reason that it is not possible for the human mind to grasp and comprehend the reality of the rank of the Sultan ul Auliya. Moulana Sheikh Nazim is the possessor of this rank in our age. This is why Moulana says, “No one really knows me. All that they know about me are only some aspects of me"
May Allah Almighty Bless Moulana Sheikh Nazim!
Allah is inviting you to His Divinely Presence!
Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim
Sohbet from 05.11.06
Allah is inviting you to His Divinely Presence!
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh
Meded, ya Sayidi, ya Sultanu-l Awliya, Meded, ya Rijalallah
Audhu bi-lllahi mina shaitani rajim
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
La haula wa la quwatta illa bi-llahi-l `Aliyu-l `Adhim.
Allahumma `alimna ma yanfa`una wa zidna `ilma, ya Rabb!
O our Lord, grant us from such a knowledge that belongs to Heavens to make ourselves to know something about ourselves! Man, as much as (he is) knowing about this world, never teaching material knowledge to know yourself, therefore we are not knowing. If Allah Almighty not sending from Heavens Heavenly Books, we are knowing nothing about ourselves. Then we are going to be like other material things or we are going to be like zoo-garden people? even they are knowing something more than mankind? that mankind they are coming together for materials, materials making a person to be like materials, no life. Animals life - that time going to be much more clear for them to know their Lords, but man, when they are getting (to be) too much with materials, (they are) going to be like materials and their levels (are) coming much more down from the levels of animals.
Therefore we are asking from Allah Almighty: "Allahumma `alimna ma yanfa`una wa idna `ilma!" Oooh, this is a praying reaching from the Seal of Prophets to ourselves that he is saying, asking from Allah Almighty: "O our Lord, teach us from Divinely and Heavenly (Knowledge)!" Heavenly Knowledge and then Divinely Knowledge. Heavenly Knowledge (is) preparing you for Divinely Knowledge and Heavenly Knowledge- "Allahumma `alimna ma yanfa`una"?- Heavenly Knowledge (is) for preparing mankind to reach the level of Heavens. And (the Prophet was also) asking: "wa zidna `ilma (and grant us more of this knowledge)" That level (Heavenly Knowledge), it is not our last target or (our) last horizon for reaching and that knowledge? ?O our Lord, grant us such a knowledge that we can be able to be closer to Your Divinely Presence!?
"Man `arifa nafsa faqad `arifa Rabbah" - first you are going to learn about yourself. Who are you?? No answer! This material knowledge (is) never giving an answer to you to say (that) you are that one, therefore every time man may ask: "Who am I?" and others may ask: "Who are you?" and we are not yet knowing about ourselves to recognize our mission and the reason of (our) being on existence!
Therefore Allah Almighty (has been) sending His Prophets. (The) first level (of knowledge is) for teaching about yourself - that you may ask: 'Who am I?' or may ask someone: 'Who are you?' - to know about yourself.
Now (the) whole world (is) trying to learn only materialism and it is a dead body, nothing giving to you about yourselves. Therefore the value of mankind now in our days (is) coming less, less, less and coming down, even coming less from the level of animals. They are coming down! La haula wa la quwatta illa bi-llahi-l `Aliyu-l `Adhim. Therefore man (is) not giving value for others. They are killing, burning, destroying and they are looking and seeing mankind as a simple material. If they are knowing about mankind and their honour and their creation target and their levels, they are not dealing with others as they are dealing with others!
People now they are like the Children of Israel (whom) they were making a Golden Cow and worshipping on it and their value (was) just in it, not through each other?
Now people they are only running after money, richness, business and such a foolish things, foolish targets and making each other - whom they are closing their ways or preventing them to reach to their targets, to reach to treasures of this temporary life, anything coming in front of them, they are taking it away - as a rock, as a animal, as a tree, (and) nothing else. Therefore the value of mankind through 21st century (is) coming less, coming down?
And we must know about ourselves and Allah Almighty (is) sending His honoured servants to teach ourselves that we are not like rocks, like animals, no! We have been honoured and we have been selected through (the) whole creation and we have been crowned to be caliphs of Allah Almighty on earth, to be His deputies on earth and to have the qualities from Heavens not to look down, but to look up!
Therefore we are in need to learn first of all who we are, whom we are. For what? Materials (are) never giving to you an answer or a knowledge! "Allahumma `alimna ma yanfa`una"- "O our Lord, teach us from such a knowledge that gives us a benefit" and (that) benefit (is) not materials; material they are nothing and (they have) no value, (they are) thrown away.
Therefore we are asking now from Allah Almighty: "Allahumma, O our Lord, teach us ma yanfa`una, that gives us a benefit there and Hereafter" (and) then: "wa zidna `ilma"(give us more from that knowledge).
When we are reaching the level of Heavens and learning (about) ourselves, then we are asking more, another kind of knowledge that (is) making ourselves closer. Closer from His Divinely Presence, because we have been created to be His servants in His Divinely Presence! No any honour can reach anyone (over) that horizon, (over) that level! And we are so far away! So far away from such a valuable target and therefore we are in need (of) a changing?
We are here a handful people or, you can say, you can find on (the) whole world (only a) handful people, whom they are knowing about themselves and preparing to reach (the) Divinely Presence of the Lord Almighty Allah - "Allahu yad`u ila dari-l Salam."
(The) whole knowledge, as a summary, that we must know and we must try to reach is, that we have been invited to His Divine Presence, Daru-l Jalal, Daru-l Salam!
(Our) whole ability, capacity, (and the) power that we have been granted, we must try to make that on that direction, to be prepared for (the) Divinely Presence, Daru-l Salam. "Allahu yad`u ila dari-l Salam."
Allah Almighty (is) inviting you to His Divinely Presence, O people, what you are doing? What you are doing? Why you are not hearing that Divinely Addressing? And it is from the time of Adam - `alayhi salatu wa salam. Just had been sent to mankind 124,000 Prophets, all of them, and their missions (was) to invite people to (the) Divinely Presence, Daru-l Salam. "Allahu yad`u ila dari-l Salam." And their missions was (the) same and their ajtahadu, efforts, was only to make people to prepare themselves for that day that Allah Almighty (is) calling them to be in His Divinely Presence!
No difference, therefore, through prophecy and through their missions and through the main spirit? through whole Holy Books (it) is (the) same, (it has) never changed, but people, as (the) Prophet was saying, (have) just (been) divided (into) so many groups of people and (they are) bringing so many different understandings. Why? No, it is so clear, so clear, why you are bringing another understanding? Every understanding beyond this understanding is false, no reality! From Adam up to (the) Seal of Prophets (it is the) same mission, but every religion (is) going to be? to run after some different ways, different understanding. Ya Hu! Keep your understanding in that point: we have been invited to (the) Divinely Presence, nothing else!
We are not created for dunya, but we are landed on that world to prepare ourselves for His Divinely meeting, in His Divinely Presence, Daru-l Salam!
Therefore - we are saying, but shaytan, shaytanic trainings, shaytanic teachings (are) making people to leave (the) real target and to run after so many useless and tasteless targets? and people (are) eating some of them some others. For what (they are) biting???
Allah Almighty (is) saying: "Inna shaytana lakum `aduwan, fatakhidhuhu `aduwan - O people, shaytan is your most dangerous enemy, fight to him!" You are leaving to fight shaytan and (you are) trying to fight with My Prophets that they have been prepared and have been sent from My Divinely Presence for you, to teach (you) for what you have been created (and) what should be your final station? But people are saying for shaytan: "Our best friend!?" When you are speaking about prophets, they are saying: "This is asatir" [fairytales], no reality; reality (is only) what you are looking and seeing, no more, no more.
Therefore people, their hearts (are) going to be like rocks; giving nothing to people; no more through their hearts you can find kindness, pity, or mercy, nothing! Just finished and people (are) going to punish someones some others?
May Allah forgive us and give us a good understanding on that point that it is very important! May Allah forgive us. O Allah, send us whom they may be our real shepherds, real guides to You, Almighty Allah! For the honour of the most honoured one in His Divinely Presence, Sayyidina Muhammad - sallaLlahu `alayhi wa sallam - Fatiha?
Allah Allah!

This material knowledge (is) never giving an answer to you to say (that) you are that one, therefore every time man may ask: "Who am I?" and others may ask: "Who are you?" and we are not yet knowing about ourselves to recognize our mission and the reason of (our) being on existence!
Therefore Allah Almighty (has been) sending His Prophets. (The) first level (of knowledge is) for teaching about yourself - that you may ask: 'Who am I?' or may ask someone: 'Who are you?' - to know about yourself.
Now (the) whole world (is) trying to learn only materialism and it is a dead body, nothing giving to you about yourselves. Therefore the value of mankind now in our days (is) coming less, less, less and coming down, even coming less from the level of animals. They are coming down! La haula wa la quwatta illa bi-llahi-l `Aliyu-l `Adhim. Therefore man (is) not giving value for others. They are killing, burning, destroying and they are looking and seeing mankind as a simple material. If they are knowing about mankind and their honour and their creation target and their levels, they are not dealing with others as they are dealing with others!
People now they are like the Children of Israel (whom) they were making a Golden Cow and worshipping on it and their value (was) just in it, not through each other?
Now people they are only running after money, richness, business and such a foolish things, foolish targets and making each other - whom they are closing their ways or preventing them to reach to their targets, to reach to treasures of this temporary life, anything coming in front of them, they are taking it away - as a rock, as a animal, as a tree, (and) nothing else. Therefore the value of mankind through 21st century (is) coming less, coming down?
And we must know about ourselves and Allah Almighty (is) sending His honoured servants to teach ourselves that we are not like rocks, like animals, no! We have been honoured and we have been selected through (the) whole creation and we have been crowned to be caliphs of Allah Almighty on earth, to be His deputies on earth and to have the qualities from Heavens not to look down, but to look up!
Therefore we are in need to learn first of all who we are, whom we are. For what? Materials (are) never giving to you an answer or a knowledge! "Allahumma `alimna ma yanfa`una"- "O our Lord, teach us from such a knowledge that gives us a benefit" and (that) benefit (is) not materials; material they are nothing and (they have) no value, (they are) thrown away.
Therefore we are asking now from Allah Almighty: "Allahumma, O our Lord, teach us ma yanfa`una, that gives us a benefit there and Hereafter" (and) then: "wa zidna `ilma"(give us more from that knowledge).
When we are reaching the level of Heavens and learning (about) ourselves, then we are asking more, another kind of knowledge that (is) making ourselves closer. Closer from His Divinely Presence, because we have been created to be His servants in His Divinely Presence! No any honour can reach anyone (over) that horizon, (over) that level! And we are so far away! So far away from such a valuable target and therefore we are in need (of) a changing?
We are here a handful people or, you can say, you can find on (the) whole world (only a) handful people, whom they are knowing about themselves and preparing to reach (the) Divinely Presence of the Lord Almighty Allah - "Allahu yad`u ila dari-l Salam."
(The) whole knowledge, as a summary, that we must know and we must try to reach is, that we have been invited to His Divine Presence, Daru-l Jalal, Daru-l Salam!
(Our) whole ability, capacity, (and the) power that we have been granted, we must try to make that on that direction, to be prepared for (the) Divinely Presence, Daru-l Salam. "Allahu yad`u ila dari-l Salam."
Allah Almighty (is) inviting you to His Divinely Presence, O people, what you are doing? What you are doing? Why you are not hearing that Divinely Addressing? And it is from the time of Adam - `alayhi salatu wa salam. Just had been sent to mankind 124,000 Prophets, all of them, and their missions (was) to invite people to (the) Divinely Presence, Daru-l Salam. "Allahu yad`u ila dari-l Salam." And their missions was (the) same and their ajtahadu, efforts, was only to make people to prepare themselves for that day that Allah Almighty (is) calling them to be in His Divinely Presence!
No difference, therefore, through prophecy and through their missions and through the main spirit? through whole Holy Books (it) is (the) same, (it has) never changed, but people, as (the) Prophet was saying, (have) just (been) divided (into) so many groups of people and (they are) bringing so many different understandings. Why? No, it is so clear, so clear, why you are bringing another understanding? Every understanding beyond this understanding is false, no reality! From Adam up to (the) Seal of Prophets (it is the) same mission, but every religion (is) going to be? to run after some different ways, different understanding. Ya Hu! Keep your understanding in that point: we have been invited to (the) Divinely Presence, nothing else!
We are not created for dunya, but we are landed on that world to prepare ourselves for His Divinely meeting, in His Divinely Presence, Daru-l Salam!
Therefore - we are saying, but shaytan, shaytanic trainings, shaytanic teachings (are) making people to leave (the) real target and to run after so many useless and tasteless targets? and people (are) eating some of them some others. For what (they are) biting???
Allah Almighty (is) saying: "Inna shaytana lakum `aduwan, fatakhidhuhu `aduwan - O people, shaytan is your most dangerous enemy, fight to him!" You are leaving to fight shaytan and (you are) trying to fight with My Prophets that they have been prepared and have been sent from My Divinely Presence for you, to teach (you) for what you have been created (and) what should be your final station? But people are saying for shaytan: "Our best friend!?" When you are speaking about prophets, they are saying: "This is asatir" [fairytales], no reality; reality (is only) what you are looking and seeing, no more, no more.
Therefore people, their hearts (are) going to be like rocks; giving nothing to people; no more through their hearts you can find kindness, pity, or mercy, nothing! Just finished and people (are) going to punish someones some others?
May Allah forgive us and give us a good understanding on that point that it is very important! May Allah forgive us. O Allah, send us whom they may be our real shepherds, real guides to You, Almighty Allah! For the honour of the most honoured one in His Divinely Presence, Sayyidina Muhammad - sallaLlahu `alayhi wa sallam - Fatiha?
Allah Allah!
