Speech of Imam Mehdi Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi
in
Karachi (Ism-e-Zaat Conference)
   
Beloved companions…Aslam-o-Alykum,
Several speeches have been delivered in this city Karachi. These speeches
are not meant for politics, to hurt sentiments of any sect neither to
criticize the government. This message has always been delivered for
people who are in search of truth, they kept listening and we kept
speaking. First speech was made in a small room in Golimar fifteen years
ago in which four people participated.
Subsequently the message, piercing millions of hearts, scattered all over
the world. Now we have been receiving indications for few days to spread
this message among other religions as well. We were wondering that while
our own people are not able to understand this knowledge then how come
Hindus, Sikhs, Christian can realize this knowledge? I thought that these
may not be true indications, because many people had received false
indications in the past. Mirza Ghulam Ahmed was considered infidel just
because of such false revelations (not by God), otherwise he had no other
thing of infidelity.
After a Friday prayer in Latifabad (Hyderabad) a man stood and said “O
people! Stop and heed to the announcement! Allah has just commanded me to
declare my prophethood and ask people to recognize me as a prophet.”
People tried to convince him that Prophethood has been ended and Muhammad
PBUH is the last Prophet. There will be no Prophet thereafter. He said,
“Ok fine, I offer prayer again”. The man offered prayers again and said:
"“Again I received a signal which says tell to the people that you are a
true prophet and if people don’t recognize you as a Prophet, a miracle
will be shown to them now” People started thrashing him with foot wears.
May be this was the ‘miracle’. After few days I happened to meet him at a
barber shop and asked him about his ‘prophethood’. He said that after
battering I realized that it was a deception from Satan.
We also received many such indications and even that knowledge, for which
signals have been shown, was taught to us in higher realms (gatherings of
Prophets). There is no time limit for knowledge of Shari’a, when someone
starts offering five time daily prayers and having a beard is Shari’a.
Then is the knowledge of Tareeqat. When someone nourishes inner souls for
12 years, then due to that power they come out from the body and bow down
before Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) that is knowledge of Tareeqat.
After this is the knowledge of Haqeeqat (Reality) as Prophet Mohammad (PBUH)
himself teaches these souls. Afterwards comes the knowledge of Mua’rifat
by virtue of which glimpse of Allah is given within seven days in this
stage.
We were wondering if these indications happened to be false then we may
face similar situation as Mirza Ghulam Ahmed did. If these signals proved
to be true, we would also be hanged like Shah Mansoor. We were bound, what
should we do? At last we made an effort and started experiments according
to those signs. Apart from Islamic countries, we also visited Europe and
USA, and told Hindus, Sikhs and Christians about this knowledge and they
said “Verily, this very knowledge is in our sacred books. We have allusion
about it in our scriptures and we were searching for this.
When we taught them this knowledge their hearts also began chanting Allah
Allah. Now we were sure that these indications were from Allah. Because
someone’s heart no matter he is Muslim or not, without Allah’s will cannot
chat Allah Allah. When people satisfied they invited us to their temples
and we delivered spiritual lectures there.
Prophet Muhammad companion Abu Huraira said, “I received two types of
knowledge from Prophet Muhammad (pbuh); I disclosed one to you, and if I
do tell about the other, you would kill me.”
And, when we shared some of that knowledge with public, then we also came
under the verdicts of infidelity. My belief was that nobody can be a
Muslim until he recites Kalima and upon becoming Muslim the heart will
chant Allah Allah.
According to that knowledge “Allah is Omnipotent and bestows upon whoever
He wants to”. That knowledge says whether one is an infidel or whosoever,
once his heart starts chanting Allah Allah one day he will turn towards
Allah. He will accompany that group, who has Allah's will and support.
What was that knowledge? For that Bullhey Shah says:
"Prayers & fasting is easy task....but that is another way"
When this body of Man was created, few souls were put within this body.
Seven souls were put within it. They are called Lataif (spiritual
entities). In a Hadith (saying of Prophet PBUH) their names are mentioned:
Qalb, Rooh, Siri, Khafi, Akhfa, Ana, Nafs. One is for seeing, one is for
walking, one for smelling, one for speaking and there is one which is only
to chant Allah’s name. Originally six of them were divine (purified) and
one satanic inner soul added to it. Bulleh Shah said for it: “This
Polluted Self has polluted us…we were not polluted from the beginning”
When that Self entered into the body then this body becomes polluted.
Neither that mud was polluted (from which Adam was created) nor other
souls were polluted but the moment Nafs (Self) entered into this body it
got contaminated. Mujadid Alif Sani says: “The starter should first chant
Allah Allah and clean his Self. Quran is not for the people whose Self is
polluted (in the shape of Dogs).” He says, “Recite the Quran with a clean
Self.” Because one thoughtful moment of that time is better than hundred
years of prayers, only then Quran will enter into the heart.
There was not a single sect in the life of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH)
there was no Sunni neither Shia nor Wahabi. In the lifetime of Prophet
Mohammad (PBUH) there was only Ummah and the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) says
that member of the Ummah is one who has the Noor (Divine Light). It is
narrated also is Hadith Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) said that “on the Day of
Judgment nations will be recognized by the Noor”.
So, either there were members of the Ummah, Hypocrites who did not have
NOOR within them and those who even abandoned the mosques, they were
Khawarij. Now how that Noor (divine light) enters into a body? One is
Muslim and one is Momin. Muslim chant Allah Allah verbally with bead. Like
when a stone collides with another stone, a spark ignites. Similarly, when
the Allah Allah rubs with each other Noor (divine light) is created.
But that Noor is only in fingers, it did not go inside the body. If it is
useful, it will only be useful on the Day of Judgment, it is useless in
this life. A similar bead is running inside human body in the form of
heart doing tick tick; when one synchronizes Allah Allah with heartbeats
then that Noor does not go outside, the Noor goes straight into blood;
through blood it goes into the veins; then it reaches to inner souls
within you through the veins. Then, those souls wake up and start chanting
Allah Allah.
Then those souls will continue chanting Allah Allah even you will be
sleeping. Even you will be in your grave but no end to the recitation and
it will keep on until the Day of Judgment. When that Noor reaches to inner
souls, first to second; second to third ultimately all souls start to
chant Allah Allah. At this stage it is considered as sacred as a mosque,
Ka’ba and even like a Paradise.
When, the Noor approaches into each & every vein. That Nafs (self) which
is Satan, he is sitting at the naval point, The Noor surrounds the Self
due to the heat & excess of Noor, the Nafs (self) begins to purify; and
once it is purified completely then the whole of human body becomes pure.
When heart continuously chants Allah Allah, the Noor of Allah gathers in
the heart. When the Noor gathers in the heart, connection between you and
Allah is your heart, the heart is like a telephone. Ordinary telephone
works when it has power in it, similarly this telephone (heart) works when
it has Noor. When Noor comes within your heart then the telephone within
you, powers on. Then wherever you speak it will go straight to heavens,
your prayers will go straight to heavens, your recitation will go straight
to heavens. This is the time when Salat/prayer becomes a spiritual journey
for Momin through this telephone.
In (Quran) Sura Hujraat Arabs said "we accepted Imaan" but Allah said
“asked them that they only became Muslims but will become Momin when the
Noor will enter into their hearts”. Now when the Noor enter into your
heart you become Momin.So when the Noor gathers in the heart it becomes
like a magnet. You throw small needles near the magnet and it will attract
them. Similarly, when you offer prayers and its Noor will go inside, you
recite Quran and its Noor will also go inside.
Nowhere in the Quran is written to offer prayers, but it mentioned to
establish prayers. If you offer Salat/prayers you consider yourself a
Momin but when you finish it you return to the same worldly affairs. When
your heart will be filled with Noor, prayers will enter into you. Then you
will be a Momin while offering prayers, while sleeping, while doing
business. By chanting Allah Allah name all the time, Noor of Allah will
come into your hearts, this will establish a Relation of Noor between you.
When everyone will have Noor inside, they will become united.
Now Murtaza Bhutto was strongly against his sister (Benazir Bhutto),
sister was also hostile because of worldly affairs, but due to blood
relation sister cried upon brother’s death. Similarly after establishing
Relation of Noor with each other Momin never desire to harm his fellow
Momin brother.
Quran says: Huda lil Mutaqiin "I Guide those who are pious". Now when a
person is purified from inside (spiritually), he becomes a scholar (who
can guide others). Then that person recites Quran, the Quran goes into the
heart. For that stage Allama Iqbal said “Apparently he looks to be a
reciter, actually he is a Quran himself”. Now as you revere Quran,
reverence of this scholar is also obligatory on you…you do not show your
back to the Quran so why do so to the scholar. These are called Divine
Scholars. Such scholars helped people to embrace Islam.
While those scholars (Worldly Scholars)who tried to take guidance from the
Quran without purifying their Nafs (self) they have gone astray. Actually
they are responsible for creating 72 sects. Now the Quran went into the
heart of Divine Scholar. Now that Worldly Scholar is, though he is also a
scholar, he also recites Quran but Quran never reaches into his heart.
He recited Quran long period of time, finally they started thinking and
said that they (Divine Scholars) found Allah but we were unable to find
Him, we start the search of world. Then what they did? Established a party
with an Islamic name and took the Quran under their arms and started their
journey towards politics. For such people Bulleh Shah said:
“Those who have Quran under their arms, they ate and denied later on”
In the morning they announce a woman cannot be a ruler, in the evening
they say she can be. People asked "Mr. Scholar why you have two opinions?"
He replied, "this is politics". People asked that politics is not for
pious people, upon which they referred to Allama Iqbal’s verse that ‘if we
separate religion from politics only cruelty will left’. Though Allama’s
verse was for politicians that if they abandon religion then they will be
nothing more than Chengiz Khan, but the religio-politicians twisted the
meaning of the verse for their politics.
Such politician gathers people around them for few years and if they enter
into corridors of power they enjoy power themselves. What is for their
followers? Instead they (followers) should had chant Allah Allah, so they
might have got some benefit. Saint Sultan Bahoo said that “I never
attended any religious seminary”. “I took first word of the Quran ALIF,
and started chanting Alif for Allah. By chanting Allah Allah my chest
became enlightened When Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) saw my enlightened chest,
He transferred all knowledge to me from His chest.”
So after few years the followers say to the leader that they offered
prayers, did politics but could not find Allah? Then that Worldly Scholar
asked them to wage jihad. His supporters asked the meaning of jihad? The
Worldly Scholar said that one faction consider Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) a
human being the other consider Noor. Go you kill them they will kill you
this is jihad. Sectarianism is product of such Worldly Scholars.
Government tries to overcome sectarianism but how it should come to an
end, when the Nafs (self) of such Worldly Scholars is infidel within them!
They can only be united for the sake of government & power, but can never
be one for sake of Allah. Such people require a ruler like Amir Al-momineen
Hazart Ali who sentenced 5,000 such fake scholars to death and sent
remaining to accompany Hazart Hassan Basri, so that their inner self may
get purify. After purification they were able to wear headdress, gowns.
Only after self purification they started to offer prayers and were able
to be called as successors of the Prophet and they lead prayers.
There are two ways to purify Nafs (self). One is to abandon the worldly
affairs, live in jungles away from people and return after completely
purifying the Nafs, like Data Sahib, Khawaja Sahib and other saints did.
Since people in this age cannot do this. Either stays in a company and
guidance of a saint in this way Nafs (self) can also be purified. Just
like Baha Ud-Din Naqash Bandi lived in the company of Amir Kalal and
Maulana Rome served Shah Shams. By serving their masters they purified
their Nafs. After becoming a known saint Then Maulana Rome wrote:
“A Maulvi can never be Maulana Rome unless he becomes a servant of a Shams
Tabraiz"
We don’t have any enmity with anyone, whoever is Divine Scholar, on the
right path and have Noor in their hearts we are like servant to them. But
we are waging jihad against those who does not have Noor within them & are
having Satan within them. Even Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said about them:
“Beware of ignorant scholar.” The Companions asked how a scholar can be
ignorant? Prophet (PBUH) answered: “The one whose tongue is scholar but
his heart is ignorant. If you go near them they will indulge you in
sects."
Now let’s talk about Mehdi (AS). There is an 80 years old saint named
Shaikh Nazim in London. He converted 10,000 americans into Islam and also
converted lot of Christians and Hindus. He is well versed in Darood,
Wazaif and knowledge of Istikhara. Shaikh Nazim announced that according
to my knowledge Imam Mehdi will appear in a year or two but worldly
scholars will oppose Imam Mehdi. Shaikh also said that Imam Mehdi wouldn’t
announce that “I am Mehdi” but people will recognize Imam Mehdi
themselves.
Now, Dr. Israr Ahmed also said that in light of Hadith and other books, it
is evident that arrival of Mehdi is near. They say that Imam Mehdi will
appear soon but we say that He has already appeared. All the saints have
been informed about Imam Mehdi; His face has been shown to them that this
is your Imam Mehdi. Imam Mehdi is a leader of a religious organization in
Pakistan. Saints have been told all the Saints are aware. Now Allah is
doing such works for Him so that everyone will have to accept Imam Mehdi.
Now as Imam Mehdi has arrived and He needs supporters and followers. Who
will support Imam Mehdi? Who will recognize him? Those who will be having
Noor when they will appear infront of Noor they will succumbed. Since Noor
has proportion with Noor. When within your heart Allah Allah will start,
then your hearts will be able to generate Noor. While then you will go
infront of Imam Mehdi A.S then your Noor will converge with Noor.
Though there are many secrets but we will uncover few of them. So, when
Noor enters into a heart it becomes a Momin and next stage is Walaiyat
(Sainthood). What is Walaiyat? You see dream while sleeping and often
wander in another city. It’s not you but it is some creature within you.
That is your Nafs (self), it is powerful because of it’s nourishment of
satanic food since childhood. You sleep and it wonders in satanic
gatherings. Rest of the souls when they get nourished by Noor, they get
strength by nourishment of Noor. And then they also begin to come out of
the chest. That Satan (Nafs) goes towards Satan’s. When other souls become
enlighten, then these souls went to see enlightened. Divine/ enlightened
souls go straight to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and bow in front of Him PBUH.
At this stage Bullhe Shah says: “People (remember Allah) five times a day
while a lover remembers all the time, people go to mosques lover go to sit
in the feet (of Master)”
Those people who remember Allah five times a day in prayers, climax of
their reach is up to a mosque.But those who remember Allah by heart they
reach up to the court of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). When they reach to the
court of Prophet Muhammad(PBUH).
Prior to this stage there is Shariat-e-Muhammadi (law of Muhammad PBUH),
Shariat-e-Muhammadi (law of Muhammad PBUH) is up to the Momin, from
hereafter starts Shariat-e-Ahmadi. You must have heard about
Shariat-e-Ahmadi which is offered prayer spiritually. The body of the
Prophet (PBUH) is called Muhammad,(PBUH) His soul is called Ahmad and His
Akhfa (The Deeply Hidden) by virtue of which He speaks is called Hamid,
and Ana which is in forehead by virtue of which He had Allah's glimpse is
called Mahmood.
Before setting out on Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) journey to the Night of
Ascension (Shab-e-Mira’j) The Prophet (PBUH) led a prayer to all the souls
of Prophets and saints at Bait-al-Muqdas (al-Quds al-Sharif). Before going
upto havens Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) lead a prayer. Then which was the
prayer that was granted upon approaching heavens? Upon reaching to the
Heavens He was bestowed by prayers but this was for mortal people, while
the prayers He led in Bait-al-Muqadas were for purified people. Even
Prophet Adam (AS) was present in that prayer, though he had passed six
thousand years ago.
When your soul purifies and reaches in the court of the Prophet (PBUH)
then that spiritual prayers is also available to that soul, that prayer
was there at that time and will be there until the day of Judgment.
Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) still leads such prayers and never rises from
Sajjda until Allah replies …"O my servant I am here"
Offering prayers behind the Prophet (PBUH) is also a kind of Walaiyat
(sainthood). Whoever offers prayers behind the Prophet (PBUH) Allah
definitely replies to him. This is initial stage of Walaiyat(sainthood).
Today even those people call themselves Wali who used to write Ta’weez and
do Istikhara but whoever offer prayers behind the Prophet (PBUH) Allah
replies to him. This is initial stage of Walaiyat (sainthood). What happen
after this, one of those souls within is called Latifa Anna. The soul Qalb
reaches to the court of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the other inner soul
Ana goes straight towards Allah.
Angles try to stop it but in vain. They say whatever it is it would be
burnt itself beyond Bait Al-Ma’moor (the celestial Archetype of kaabah),
because even Angels cannot go beyond it but this soul crosses that
boundary and reaches there where Allah Himself sits. Our beloved Prophet (PBUH)
beholded vision of God with His physical body but saints reach there
through inner souls. Then both (Allah and saints) see each other with love
with a sense that this soul has travelled so far far. Then Allah says: “I
see you and you see me.” They look at each other with love & affection.
Allah’s image is carved on the heart of that saint and Allah instructs him
to go back to the people because “whoever will see you, will see me”.
Now looking at that Saint is also worship. For this stage Saint Sultan
Bahoo said: "O Bahoo seeing the master is equivalent to millions and
billions of Hajj"
Now that is the person who is Saint. Saint (friend of God) means a person
who has got vision of Allah and has spoken to Him. Friend of God is wali
(saint). In this age, there are thousands claimant of being Saint in our
country who have never seen Allah nor talked to Him. Love for such people
make a dog Hazart Qamteer and enmity for such people can make someone
Baleem Ba’ur who was very pious person but went into Hell fire in the
shape the dog of Ashab-e-Kahf (companions of the cave).
Many saints stop at this stage, this is the stage of Fana Fillah and very
special Saints go beyond this stage. Prophet (PBUH) has told For those who
go beyond “that is the third type of knowledge”. Then they go more forward
and then they see for which Shia people were shouting for such a long time
that there are 40 chapters in Quran. Then, when those Saints cross that
stage, they find those 10 chapters. When they find those 10 chapters, then
this Quran (Printed on paper) is something and those 10 chapters are
something else. These (10 chapters) are telling something else and those
(30 Chapter) are telling something else.
This Quran says, “Recite me while standing, sitting and even lying”. Those
10 chapters says don’t waste your time. If you ever want to remember it
just go for the vision (of Allah). This Quran commands to offer prayer
otherwise you will be sinful but those chapters says if you offer prayer
you will be sinful. When asked, “how come”? Those 10 chapters answered
that suppose you are in front of God and talking to Him. If prayers time
approached during this and you left the vision of God and offered prayer,
means you committed a sin? Those 10 chapters said, “When prayer time
arrives just have a glimpse of the One for whom we are offering prayer”.
It is said that once Mujadid Alif Sani went to a mosque and saw a man
sleeping there. Mujadid again went to the mosque for prayer and the same
person was sleeping. Mujadid thought he might have slept after offering
prayer. Then Mujadid decided to stay in the mosque from time of Asar to
Magharib prayers. Mua’zin was delivering Magharib azan but the man was
still sleeping. Mujadid awoke him and angrily said that either he should
get of the mosque or offer prayers. The man got up and did Wazu. Prayers
were about to start when the same man asked the Imam to stop. Imam
stopped. He announced the Niyat (intention) of Fajar prayer. People saw
that suddenly evening turned into moning, then he offered Zohar prayer and
it was Zohar time, then he performed Asar prayer, one narrator reports
that even the rotation of the sun changed. At this time the man said to
Mujadid, “You are spiritually envisioned. You should have seen my
condition before awakening me. I was with Him whom you offer prayers to".
Then the Quran said that if you drink even a single drop of water your
fast will be ruined. Those (other 10 chapters) said even if you keep
eating and drinking all day long your fast will never break. When asked,
"how come”? It was answered that fasting is to purify the self, if your
self is already pure then it doesn’t matter you eat or not, you will
observe fast for lifetime.
When asked, "how come”? It was answered that fasting is to purify the
self, if your self is already pure then it doesn’t matter you eat or not,
you will observe fast for lifetime. It is said that there was a Saint
living on the bank of a river. He cooked sweet dish and asked his wife to
give a share to another Saint on the other side of the river. His wife
said that how should she cross the river? The Saint said to his wife,
“Tell the river that I have been sent by the man who never touched his
wife for twelve years and the river will give you way to cross.” The wife
replied, “What are you saying? We have just had a daughter three months
ago!”
The Saint answered, “What I said is right”, and his wife went and said the
same words told by her husband. River gave her way to cross and upon
reaching her on the other side, the river again began to flow normally.
She gave meal to the Saint and he ate it. Then she asked how to cross the
river? The Saint said, “Tell the river that you have been sent by the man
who ate nothing for twelve years.” She surprised and asked the Saint that
he just have eaten the meal but he asked her to ignore it. The women asked
the river what the Saint told and the river gave the way for her cross.
Upon reaching home she asked his husband, “I am very surprised. You said
you never touched your wife for twelve years but I had daughter three
months ago and he said he never ate anything for twelve year. I am unable
to understand that even your lies have so much power."
Her husband answered actually, “I came to you not for my Nafs (Self) but
as a duty and he never ate for his Self but for living.” Similarly, Abdul
Qadir Jalini said, “You live for eating and we eat for living so that we
can perform duties as per Divine order.”
Next came Hajj. The Quran said if anybody has resource and ability he/she
must perform Hajj.
The others said: Only those people go to Ka’ba who don’t have guts.
They say that you are superior to all creatures. Ibrahim constructed Ka’ba
with mud and clay while you have been created by Noor. So why you go to
the Ka’ba, rather Ka’ba should come to you. Upon this Shah Mansoor was
hanged. Ba-Yazid Bistami says, “For years I used to circumambulate the
Ka’ba but when I found Allah, now Ka’ba started circumambulating me".
Saint Sultan Bahoo was asked by someone that why he did not go to Hajj.
"Bahoo replied that Ka’ba used to circumambulate here". Same Ka'ba came to
circumambulate Rabia Basri. This Quran ask us to give 2.5% Zakat. The
other says give 97.5% Zakat and keep only 2.5% with you. This Quran was
asked that where is Allah? the Quran said He is far away. Just keep
performing prayers and observe fast, because seeing Allah is very
difficult, He lives very far away. But when those Paras were asked about
Allah, they replied "Allah is here in this world, sometime as Data (RA)
and sometime as Khawaja (RA). Those chapters said have you not heard that
Hadith-e-Qudsi which says, “I become hands of my servant with which he
holds; I become tongue of my servant with which he speaks.”
That knowledge starts where this (Quran's) knowledge ends. This is the
Knowledge which is learnt after vision of God. The beginning of this
Knowledge is that 124,000 Prophets of attributed names all together were
not able to approach the status of Ism-e-Zaat. Because Musa (AS) used to
recite Ya-Rehman, Isaa’ (AS) Ya-Qudoos, Suleman (AS) Ya-Wahab, Daood (AS)
used to recite Ya-Wadood and rest of the Prophets used to recite the Moto
of (Mursal) Messenger of their time. One day Musa (A.S) asked Allah to
show His glimpse. Allah replied to Musa that he hasn’t capacity for it.
Musa asked, “Who has the capacity?” Allah answered, “My Beloved and His (Ummat)
followers."
Musa came into jalal and said being a Prophet I am not equal to a
follower? And asked Allah “regardless of what happens show me your
glimpse”. Finally, when Allah put His tajally (theophany) on Musa, Musa
was unable to bear its intensity and fell unconscious. So, what is the
reason that Musa wasn’t able to see Allah on Koh-e-Toor (Mount Sinai) in
this world and went into unconscious while Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was
sitting and smiling in front of Allah? Musa had Noor of Rehman within
himself that is why he couldn’t tolerate the personal light of Allah and
in the body of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) had the Noor of Ism-e-Zaat Allah.
Zaat went infront of Zaat and smiled.Therefore, it is blessing of the
Prophet that his Ummah has Isam-e-Zaat but Ummah is afraid of practicing
it.
Sayings of Prophet (PBUH) “On the Day of Judgment Ummahs will be
recognized by their Noor.” These shining with Noor of Ya-Rehman are Ummah
of Musa (AS). Shining by the Noor of Ya-Wadood is Ummah of Daood (AS) and
these who are shining with Allah-Hu are indeed Ummah of the Prophet
Muhammad (PBUH). This is your symbol.
Apparently whatever a person speaks from his tongue same thing is in his
heart he is true person. If a person has something on his tongue and
something else in his heart he is hypocrite. If someone has similar
behavior with Allah i.e speaks different than whatever is in the heart,
that person is a biggest hypocrite of all. Believe me that without Zikr-e-Qalbi
(Heart meditation), your prayers cannot be accepted. You complain that you
offer prayers but Allah does not fulfill your Dua. Why Dua should be
accepted? Salat/Prayer is pre-requisite for the acceptance of Dua.
But after this there is one more Hadith, “Without presence of the
heart/Qalb, your prayers are not accepted.” People will be accountable for
those prayers which are offered with the presence of heart. There are
three types of prayers (Salat); first is Namaz-e-Soorat, second is
Namaz-e-Haqeeqat and third is Namaz-e-Ishq. Every sect performs
Namaz-e-Soorat it is not a big deal, this Namaz is just an act of showing
to others.
For this, Namaz say Qul Hu Wallah Hu Ahad (say Allah is One) and the heart
replies there is no flour at home, Allah hu-samad (Allah, the Eternal,
Absolute) heart says wife is sick, Lam Ya-lid wa Lam Yu-lad heart says
“getting late from office hurry up”. This is called Namaz-e-Soorat.
Mujadid Alif Sani says, “For every person is Namaz-e-Soorat and
Namaz-e-Haqeeqat is of special people of God” and said “Everyone should
search for Namaz-e-Haqeeqat”. Now what is Namaz-e-Haqeeqat? Namaz-e-Soorat
is performed by a Muslim and Namaz-e-Haqeeqat is performed by a Momin. And
for Namaz-e-Haqeeqat you must learn to commemorate Allah’s name (Dhikr-e-Qalbi).
This is first word of your Quran. Beginning with Alif, chant Allah
Allah. If you are afraid of its anger/Jalal, chant La Illah Il-lilha that
begins with Laam, if you even cannot do this then chant Muhammad
Rasool-ul-Allah that begins with Meem and you will be blessed by Noor.
Otherwise you will be lost in words of the Book and who knows that this
Book will guide you or misguide you. This is also your first pillar? First
pillar of Islam Kalima/Moto. Hadith Says “Superior zikr is Kalma-e-Taiba”
and Quran says “remember me while standing, sitting even lying down on
your sides. Don’t be diverted while merchandising and selling”.
This is also your first Sunnah as well. What Prophet used to do in
Ghar-e-Hira (Cave of Hira)? Even Salat/prayers were not obligated at that
time. What people use to do at that point of time? They used to chant the
name of God. Then they became Muslims, when they become Muslims
Salat/prayers was not obligated even by that time. Prayers were obligated
at a later stage. What they used to do at that point of time? Meanwhile
people keep themselves busy in Zikr and by that their chests enlightened.
Later on, when Salat/prayers were bestowed to the Prophet (PBUH), prayers
didn’t stuck in their throats, it went straight into their hearts.
When your heart will start chanting Allah Allah then you will try to carry
on with your work and Allah Allah also continues. This is called ‘in the
hand of doer, in the heart of companion’. Next you will try while reading
newspaper/magazine and Allah Allah also continues and you will succeed.
Then you will try Allah Allah continue while offering prayers.
Now, your tongue will say Qul Hu Wallah Hu Ahad and hearth will say Allah
Allah. Allah Hu-Samad and heart will say Allah Allah…Lam Ya-Lid Wa Lam Yoo
Lad…heart will say Allah Allah. Now it’s the stage whatever is on the
tongue will be in the heart. Your tongue is affirming and heart is
testifying…tongue is in Zikr-e-Mufasil while heart is in Zikr-e-Mujamil…tongue
is affirming by the logic while heart is testifying without any logic.
This tongue has power to speak from here and people in America can listen
and heart has the power to chant here and Heavens will hear. Then your
prayers will reach to the Heavens by this heart…this is the Salat which is
called journey to Heavens for a Momin (Meraj-ul-momineen).
Every now and then we hear lectures that the one who has no love for the
Allah and Prophet, his faith is incomplete. People only talk about the
love. They only talk about the medicine but do not give the medicine. We
have been hearing this for long time now but in the heart still affection
for the Allah and Prophet is absent. Those who express their love from the
tongue are dishonest/pitiful. Love is not related to tongue love is
connected to the heart. Love cannot be done forcefully but happens
automatically.
Though they express their love by the tongue but in their heart is Satan.
How to expel that Satan? We say there is Satan in your heart you say that
I offer prayers, how come that Satan is in my heart? We say that though
you offer prayers but during prayers (Salat) why your heart is filled with
Whisper (of Evil) which is work of the Satan? Satan is in heart that is
why he whispers in heart!
Now do an experiment…every time you offer prayers whispers are coming in
heart because Satan is in heart but if you join a gathering for Zikr and
chant Allah Hu, there will be no whispers but you will feel joy. But the
moment you will leave the gathering the same whispers will again engulf
your heart. What if that same gathering establishes within you. Stay 24
hours in the ecstasy of Allah and will have a shield from satanic
whispers.
Once, Hazart Abu Bakr Siddique asked the Prophet (PBUH) “while I offer
prayer I feel whisperers of Satan”. The Prophet (PBUH) replied “you are
getting 2 types of reward, One for offering prayers and second of jihad".
Hazart Abu Bakr asked, “How can I have reward of jihad while offering
prayers?” The Prophet replied, “ Those Satanic whisperers come to your
heart and chanting of Allah Allah which is going on within your heart
throw them out, again they come and again Allah Allah throw them out and
this is jihad.” And if the whisperers get place permanently in the hearts,
then this will be your defeat not jihad”.
Everyone claims love with their tongue but in their hearts is Satan
whereas love is connected with heart. As long as the Satan does not go out
from the heart, one cannot attain any Prophet's or Saint’s love. First of
all throw the Satan out from the heart.
Ba-Yazid Bistami went into jungles is his youth. The Satan used to stand
at a corner and watch while he recited various Wirid and Wazaif. The
moment Bistami start stroking Allah Hu on his heart, whenever he try to
settle Allah in his heart, Then Satan come near and disturb/interrupt him.
Once, Bistami took a stick and ran after the Satan. Since he was
enlightened he heard a voice saying, “O Ba-Yazid, he wouldn’t die by the
sticks he burns with Allah’s Noor, you chant so much, you chant so much so
that you become Noor-ala-noor.” When Ba-Yazid Bistami achieved (Noor-ala-noor)
this stage even all magicians left the city of Bistam saying that “now our
magic no longer works here”.
When continued Allah Allah will begin, naturally love of God will come
into the heart. Love cannot be done it happens. Allah Allah or whatsoever
comes in the heart love will happen with that. When you will start loving
Allah, Allah does not like that someone owe anything to Him, do one good
deed for Him get the reward of ten good deeds, spend one rupee in His way
He gives back ten rupees. Love Him a little He in return loves ten times
more. Then to those with He loves He does look at them also. He does not
give a casual look; He looks at them with great love and affection. And
the day Allah looked with love and affection, then that love also will
disappear and Ishq (passionate love) will come. Then you are mine and I am
yours.
Allama Iqbal said about this stage: "If there is Ishq, infidelity is also
Islam"
Meaning, if within you came the Ishq of Allah then infidelity is also
Islam. If within you do not have Ishq Iqbal then says “Then even Muslim is
also infidel”.
Today Muslims themself are declaring each other infidel.
When love of Allah appears in this heart then those who are associated
with the love of Allah, then love of those people also comes. That time
Love of Prophet (PBUH) will come, love for the Companions of the Prophet (PBUH)
will come. Love of Imam Ali (RZA) will come within someone, whosoever’s
love comes within, and then this was the very love which turned the dog of
Ashab-e-Kahf (companions of cave) into Hazart Qamteer.
Now, when someone seeks for Allah, then he carries bead and starts
chanting, but the ultimate objective is to bring God within. People don't
know how to absorb Allah inside, they chant Allah Allah by using beads
which creates Noor but remains outside. They keep chanting Allah Allah by
the tongues that Noor also went outside. Some people recite Allah Hu with
the breath that Noor also goes out, does not remains within. Until Allah
is not been absorbed within, nothing will happen. Now the question is how
to absorb Allah? How Allah comes within human?
Write Allah on a white piece of paper with black ink sixty six times daily
and after few days practice, the word which you were writing on paper one
day that word Allah starts hovering in the eyes without writing. Second
method is to write Allah with yellow ink on a zero bulb and watch it
before sleeping. And one day the word Allah comes into the eyes. When it
comes into the eyes, then stop writing or observing then from the eyes try
to bring it to the heart. Ultimately what is written on the paper one day
can be seen on the hearts.
A person with police tag is a policeman and one with Allah written (on
heart) will be man of Allah. When Allah is written on the heart it beats
faster than it normally does…tick, tick, tick. Then synchronize Allah Hu
with this tickling. A tick for Allah and a tick for Hu…doing this
repeatedly turns heart beats into Allah Hu. Before sleeping at night,
consider your finger a pen and in your imagination write Allah Allah on
your heart while writing go to sleep.
At midnight special angles come to this world and ask from Kiraam un-Kaatibiin
about every person that what was his/her last act before sleeping? This
person slept after offered Isha prayers they will pray for him/her that
may Allah keep him/her happy. And this person? Slept after reciting Darood
Shareef (Benediction), they pray may Allah keep him/her happy aswell. This
person? Slept after reciting Aiyat-ul-Kursi, they say keep the honour of
Aiyat-ul-Kursi and protect him/her.
Then they come across a person who fell asleep while chanting Allah Hu.
They says keep quite speak in low voice maybe he/she went into asleep
while remembering Him and maybe Allah give him/her reward of all night’s
worship. Because whatsoever intention is while sleeping, same thing will
happen in dream. Wake up in the morning don’t worry about Wazoo because
heart does not require Wazoo by water and keep doing Hidden Chanting (Zikar-e-Khafi).
As long as your zikar does not match with your heartbeat it is called
Hidden Chanting and when it matches with the heartbeat then it is called
heart meditation (Zikar-e-Qalbi). Today is your first step into Tarikat.
When this Allah Allah starts with the heart, today your vehicle started
its journey towards Allah. Now it needs the petrol…then offer prayers,
observe fast and your vehicle will keep on moving. Then this vehicle,
Tarikatis related with heart, and then this vehicle will reach its
destination…where Allah is sitting. Reality (Haqeeqat) is associated with
eyes. After receiving blessings from Allah it is called Mua’rifat.Now
because this Zikr is hot, by chanting Allah Allah, may be you feel some
sort of heat. In this situation recite Darood Sharif and it will cool
down. One day Darood Sharif and Allah will unite and you will feel neither
heat nor cold.
Some people’s heartbeats are not prominent.Then, what should they do?
Bulleh Shah said:
“We soothe our companion by dancing before Him”
This is difficult to comprehend why he said so. Then he said:
“At this stage even dancing becomes worship”
Bulleh Shah was asked what he said? And he replied:
"Bullah danced a lot and heartbeats started to rise, then matched Allah
Allah with it and finally Allah got pleased with me".
“Bullah was desperate to pacify Allah, Allah doesn’t consider deeds,
doesn’t consider faces…he only sees whatever the intentions in the heart
are. I danced because my intention was to raise my heartbeat so that I may
synchronize Allah Allah with it. You can do whatever you want to…do
exercise, dance, put the strokes of Allah hu on heart or whatever when
your heartbeat start to rise synchronize Allah Allah with it.
Many people say that without Bayat benevolence cannot be given. We are
also of the opinion that without money you can’t buy mangoes, but if
someone gives a basket full of mangoes it is a blessing from someone. It’s
true without Bayat benevolence cannot be given. If within you start to
chant Allah Allah without any Bayat then, surely, this will be a blessing
from some great personality
This will be a blessing from some great personality…either from Allah or
His Beloved. When benevolence starts coming from them, now you are Bayat
or not, does not matter. If anyone needs permission for this they wouldn’t
have to do Bayat. This is commanded from Allah, and this is for everyone,
you try this practice. Within five, seven days if Allah wishes Allah Allah
will start within you.
It doesn’t matter whether you did Bayat or not. Neither we ask any kind of
money from you nor it is a Bayat. Every person thinks that Allah’s
blessing are upon me. Upon asking, how are you? He/she replies “Allah’s
blessing are upon me I have car, a big house if this is not blessing then
what is this”? Upon asking second person, how are you? He/she reply
“Allah’s blessing are upon me, I was poor family once and now achieved a
status”.
Upon asking third person, how are you? He/she reply “Allah’s blessing are
upon me, despite being in old age I am still healthy if this is not
blessing then what is this”? We say that if you consider such things as
blessing then even infidels have all that. What Allah gave to infidels
bestowed on you…so what is the blessing on you?
If you really want to see His blessing, indulge yourself in His Zikar. If
within two, four, five or six days, Allah Allah starts within you then you
are blessed with His blessing. Allah says, “You remember me and I will
remember you”. Only that person is remembered who is in friendship.
If despite the effort your heart does not accept Allah Allah then you are
not blessed by His blessing at all. If you were blessed He must have
accepted you within those who remember Him. The secret behind recognizing
yourself, what I am, how much Bountiful Allah is upon me? This is the only
touchstone. After this if He bestows car or bungalow then these are
blessings.
Whoever wants take permission for this practice should admit by speaking
along with my tongue and they will be permitted. Those people who do not
want to get permission then they sit silent for them there is no
permission.
