Tuesday Majlis 28 / 12 / 38

Points from Tuesday Majlis 28/12/38

🍓 Throughout the year, there are precious times that Allah Ta'ala blesses us with, such as the times of the 5 Salaahs, Ramadhan, 10 days of Thul Hijjah, 15 Shabaan, the time of Jumuah  etc. this is when the Rahmat  of Allah is coming down, if one inclines to Allah a little in these times, Allah moves him alot infront. And if one commits a sin in these valuable  times, then that is very very dangerous. So at that time, if one doesn't do good, then at least don't do evil.

🍓 And in the same way, the special places which are particularly meant for Allah Ta'ala,  where Allah's blessings are coming down,  like the Masajid, Haramain Sharifain, at the Rawdha Mubarak etc. to talk (worldly things) loudly.  Someone maybe doing some other guna, and we looking down on him, how shaytan works! We have to be careful. To sin in those mubarak places is also worse 

🍓 Hadhrat Umar radhiyallahu anhu would be sending the people out of the Haram of Makka after Hajj as it is not everyone's 'cup of tea' to stay There, because where the reward is so great,  the sin is also so great.

🍓 The sanctity of the Masjid is very great and this unfortunately goes easily out of our minds. Train our children at home. Not to make noise in the Masjid or speak anything of dunya 

🍓 We have our mobile phones,  then on there we have Quran Sharif , then we have our child's picture on, and what and what things we have on that phone, this mixing of the good and bad is very dangerous 

🍓 Hadhrat Moulana Thanwi's rahimahullah practices out of Ramadhan were just like that of Ramadhan, what more could He do in Ramadhan,  it's the same 24 hours! this is how our Akabireen valued time

🍓 That time that we give to Allah Ta’ala,  (actually all time is Allah's, it's  just an amaanat given to us, however for example the time we take out to go in jamat, umrah, khanqah, itikaaf etc.) All those times when the reward is greater doing wrong in those times is more dangerous and very harmful 

🍓 We acknowledge very few blessings of Allah, and that too very superficially.  We can never get to the depth of one ni'mat. Billions of Allah's favours are on us. Few that we know....very little of us make shukr and very little shukr we make. For example the eye, it's not just an eye- how many parts to it. Allahu Akbar!  When a ni'mat is taken away, then only we appreciate it , till its there we don't really appreciate it 

🍓 Same way, the sins we commit, very little we are aware of ,and so superficially too. countless of sins Allah Knows of us more than we know so thoroughly, yet Allah Ta'ala allows our life to carry on,  food , all blessings. so we must think of this also.How weak our aqaid is, how weak is our love for Deen, Imaan.  

🍓 Once when Ka'ba Sharif needed some repairs, the King of the time (if it's our masjid we would just call the worker) , they were not artisans, labourers used to working, but they went themselves and repaired It. At most we'll write out a cheque, donate

🍓 In the past, when the Turkish section of the Haram Sharif was to be built, They only used Hafiz e Quran, who used to be in the state of wudhu and who took no wages, to build the Haram Sharif, this is what a great honour they took it to be. We on other hand can't pick up some dirt,  we call the muathin or cleaner and give him a big lecture instead. Whereas these people regarded it as a great honour to serve people who come to the Masjid

Awwabeen Namaaz

 

Awwabeen is another name for “Tawwabeen”. Tawwabeen means a person who makes alot of Taubah. And just like we speak; Makkah--Bakkah, Mumbai—Bombay, like that- Awwabeen--Tawwabeen, it is the same Namaaz. The person who makes alot of Taubah -Allah loves.

“ان الله يحب التوابين”

Allah loves those people tremendously; who make alot of taubah. 

”التٌائِبُ مِنَ الذَّنبِ كَمَنْ لَا ذَنبَ لَه”

A person who makes taubah of his gunah is like a person who committed no gunah whatsoever.

“التَّائِبُ حَبِيْبُ الله “

A person who makes taubah is the Beloved of Allah Tabaarak wa Ta’ala.
 

It's also from “Awwaah”. Awwah means the great lovers of Allah Ta'ala. So by making Awwabeen we will be included in those people who make a lot of Taubah. We will be included in those people who are counted amongst the lovers of Allah Ta'ala.

Awwabeen Namaaz is from six to twenty rakaats. After Maghrib Namaaz- 6-20. In one Riwayat it comes clearly that a person who reads six rak’ats after the Fardh of Maghrib, his Awwabeen will be made.

Our Sheikh Rahmatullah alayh used to explain this, that Maghrib Namaaz; Alhamdulillah; the Ummat reads. After that, two Sunnat Muakkada everyone reads also and after that two Nafls everyone reads also. Famous in the Ummat-Maghrib is seven Rak’ats: 3 fardh + 2 Sunnat Muakkada = 5+ 2 Nafl = 7. So 4 we are reading after the fardh, we just have to add 2 more and then it becomes 6, and that's the minimum amount of Awwabeen!

So if we will do that; it comes in the Hadith Sharif; a person who makes Awwabeen gets the reward of twelve years Ibaadat.

To understand this practically in our terms and our understanding:

You are working for somebody and the boss told you there is a special customer who has come in from very far and he really buys very good. If you just stay five minutes extra (to make two rak’ats namaaz won’t even take us five minutes) you just stay five minutes and I’ll give you twelve years wages. So if that person is getting a wage of R10 000 a month; R120 000 for the year!

How much! almost two and half million rand just for that five minutes. And this is just an example, what Allah will give! what is two and half million rand? What is two and half million dollars/riyals? nothing whatsoever!

So just that little bit; make that two more rak’ats and 12 years of Ibaadat. And not only that, if you make Awwabeen Namaaz; it comes in the riwayat; if your sins are equal to all the foam of the seas of the world, Allah Ta’ala will forgive them.

To understand this in our times:

If a person has got so much debts; billions and trillions and quadrillions; all the foam of the sea, so much, but here Allah says, you just stay on that two minutes more; make your two rak’ats to make it six; the minmum of Awwabeen and I will write off all those debts of yours. So easy. That we can get all our sins forgiven if there are equal to all the foam of the oceans of the world.
Ulama say that for major sins we should make Taubah, proper Taubah and that this refers to minor sins. But anyway in the Hadith- all your sins will be forgiven.

So great virtues. Just by making that two Rak'ats more and it will be included in six. This is according to Muhadditheen. Fuqaha say, the six will be separate from the two Sunnat Muakkada. For safety sake, on special occasions like Ramadhan, make six separate; after two Sunnat Muakkada make another six, but in sha Allah by just making that six also. And that was the mizaaj of our Shaikh and of our Silsilah; Haji Imdaadullah Muhajir Makki Rahmatullah Alayh; they look for all the suhulat-the easy ways.

So two Sunnat Muakkada we are making, two nafls we are making, just add two more and it is our six and we will get this great reward! May Allah Ta'ala give us Taufiq.

Be in the continuous Remembrance of Allah Ta'ala

       

Is it possible to Remember Allah Ta'ala while engrossed in worldly activities?

On one occasion a person asked Hadhrat Moulana Thanwi Rahmatullah alayh, that is it possible, that while we are doing our business, we can be thinking of Allah Ta'ala? When we so engrossed in our worldly activities; whatever it might be; can we be thinking of Allah Ta'ala?

Moulana Thanwi Rahmatullah alayh asked him, that when you are making Namaaz, is it possible to think of your worldly things?

Everyone is thinking of his worldly things, all the time in Namaaz!

So if in your Namaaz, which was:

"Establish your Namaaz; perfect your Namaaz; exclusively for My Remembrance"

If in That we thinking of dunya, then in dunya why cant we think of Deen? why can't we think of Allah Ta'ala?

The Step Forward

And if a person practises on the Sunnats; in fact if we just recite the morning and evening Duas; this will take us a long way to be in the continuous remembrance of Allah Ta'ala. If we do everything according to Sunnat; which is the best for this dunya also, so many worldly benefits-there is nothing better for our dunya life than the Sunnah way.

Hadhrat Moulana Shah Abrarul Haq Rahmatullah alayh said:
"Sunnat ka tareeqa as'hal tareeqa" --the Sunnah way is the most easiest way of doing anything.

May Allah Ta'ala grant us the Taufeeq
