Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Mawlana Shaykh’s sohbahs are easily accessible and enough to remind, and help us in the more difficult times ahead.
Are we listening and willing to follow?
Our Naqshbandi Way is a great favour from Allah (ﷻ).
Since the fall of the Ottoman Caliphate, mankind witnessed many unfortunate events unfold. Today, our lives have changed drastically as a consequence to our own acts of heedlessness.
Performing a simple sunnah of smiling to others is now not even possible with the face mask on.
The sunnah of exchanging handshakes, salam, in public, praying shoulder to shoulder as a jemaah in a jam-packed Masjid, visiting Sacred Lands and maqams of Holy Ones have also been restricted from our practices.
Therefore, we must be foremost and hasten to perform as many sunnah and all other means of worshipping that remains.
The generations to come growing up in these strange conditions, will have nothing left of Islam except for the seed of ‘Laillaha illallah’, that were planted by their parents and caregivers in their hearts.
‘La illaha illallah- There is no God but God.’
The strength of every Muslim family unit is vital, especially so in these times of the second Jahilliya where soon the sanctity of our homes will become our children’s only example of Islam.
Rasulullah (ﷺ) said, “Baiti Jannati”, My Home, My Paradise. Turn your home into a paradise for your spouses and children.
Our Masyaikh (q) advices us to remain in unity, tolerance and love by always looking within to correct our inner faults and not look externally for the faults in others.
Only through united hearts will we be able to reach safety with Sahib ul- Zaman. Disunity, be it within the family or the jemaah will not bring any peace.
Plant into the hearts of your loved ones seeds of love for Sunnah, the Ummah and this Way, through sohbah.
Be an example of seeing Perfection in Allah’s (ﷻ) Plans, to live as Allah (ﷻ) Pleases and Chooses, having faith in any situation that Allah (ﷻ) Knows All.
May Allah (ﷻ) Grant us to be people of ‘Laillaha illallah’, forgive us, and Protect us from the fitnah of these dark times by holding on to the teachings of our Shuyukh.
