Audhu billah min ash-shaytan ir-rajeem. Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem
Nawaytu'l-arba` een, nawaytu'l-`itikaaf, nawaytu'l-khalwah, nawaytu'l-riyaada, nawaytu's-salook, nawaytu'l-`uzlah lillahi ta`ala fee hadha'l-masjid. Ati` Allah wa ati` ar-rasula wa uli 'l-amri minkum
[Shaykh Sharafuddin’s notes: about Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahui ]
Allah swt honored us with his prophet (s) that He has sent him mercy for humanity and from that mercy everything that comes for the benefit of Allah’s creation is considered it is coming from the mercy that Allah has blessed Sayyidina Muhammad (s) with. Everything good is coming for sure from the secret of that mercy. And Allah didn’t create anything with no wisdom. So rahmatan lil-`alameen has in it secrets - it depends on whom it reaches from Allah’s creation.
And there are beside trees and nature and animals and oceans and fishes and everything, there are angels and there are jinn and there are awliyaullah and there are prophets and there are Sahaba and there are Sahaba and there are prophets and there are malaika and there are jinn. That mercy has to reach them every one of them. And fom one to another it changes. If it reaches, traces of it, it might turn a pebble into a jewel. If it reaches more, it might turn a jewel into a diamond and if it reaches more it might turn that diamond into another mercy from the mercies of Sayyidina Muhammad (s).
Awliyaullah they appear at birth by…when they are born, immediately they are known to be awliyaullah because awliyaullah are selected. Not everyone can be a saint. Every saint has his own dress that comes from the mercy of Sayyidina Muhammad (s) that Allah dressed him with. And every student of these awliyaullah also they receive some of that mercy that they will be dressed with. And this now we are speaking about that reality that has been dressed on Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu.
So it is something that is amazing to understand and to see and to understand what Allah swt gave to his prophet out of his greatness and the Prophet (s) gave to awliyaullah. If one wali has that what do you think about all of them, then what you think about about Sahaba what you think about prophets, what you think about seal of messengers what you think about angels.
Sayyidina Shaykh Sharafuddin and Shaykh Abdullah ad-Daghestani has related that Shaykh Sharafuddin has told him about, stories, it is not stories but accounts that have happened with Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahui. Is Qur'an a story? No. Qur'an is Allah’s ancient words, but Allah revealed to us stories in the Holy Qur'an. So stories in our life are important to learn, where Allah said:
نَحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ أَحْسَنَ الْقَصَصِ بِمَا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ هَـذَا الْقُرْآنَ وَإِن كُنتَ مِن قَبْلِهِ لَمِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ
nahnu naqassu `alayka ahsan al-qassasi bima awhayna ilayk hadha al-Qur'ana wa in kunta min qalbih lamin al-ghaafileen.
We do relate unto thee the most beautiful of stories, in that We reveal to thee this (portion of the) Qur'an: before this, thou too was among those who knew it not. [12:3]
We are telling you stories from the best of stories. So it means that Holy Qur'an Allah revealed stories in Holy Qur'an for us to understand. And that is why stories in Shariah or Islam or in sainthood is important for us to learn. Not only we have to speak about good manners, and moral excellence we also have to give stories without stories it doesn’t that with it the greatness of what Allah wants us to know.
So he said that “Sayyidina Shaykh Sharafudddin told me stories about Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu, 54,000 stories about different accounts that happened with Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahui in his life as a saint from age of one day of birth til he passed away when he was at age of 74 years.”
Sharafuddin he told Grandshaykh 54,000 stories about Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu. It is not like a story how many chickens you have and how many coats you have. These are spiritual stories in which Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu was moving in them. He said, "That is a part or a glimpse from his birthday, the day that he was born, what happened, when he was born” and Grandshaykh Shaykh Abdullah al-Faiz Daghestani is relating that story from his Grandshaykh, Shaykh Sharafuddin. He is relating that story about Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu. He said that the moment… as that shows how he was dressing from the secret of Sayyidina Muhammad (s).
He said, "The moment he came to dunya, the whole area in Daghestan and the area surrounding, and immediately between east and west, the smell of Paradise has overcome this whole world from east to west. “
“And from that smell that came to Daghestan region as it was his own place, 5000 secularist, atheist people, as it was an area of communism, nearly 5000 people from the smell of that smell they could not take it because it was the smell of Paradise, they died, they could not take. Their bodies as they were not believing in a creator they were gone, they left dunya.”
He said, "That night Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu with his spirituality that appeared at that moment when he was young, the first day of his birth he gave tariqah through his spirituality, as his body was still small he gave spirituality to 10,000 people and he said that night 80,000 people 80,000 men, hubb ad-dunya was completely thrown away from their hearts because of that smell that came from Paradise, covering Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu at his birth.
So he said, "Three issues happened: 5000 atheists died; 10,000 took baya` on his spirituality and 80,000 had love of dunya was thrown from their hearts.”
He said that “At his birth, awliyaullah that were living were ordered to move in space by tayy az-zamaan by time folding, appearing in the area of Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu. And they were praising Allah swt that Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu came to dunya to take the responsibility of this dunya.”
So a munaafiq cannot accept these words and these words are not for them. These words are for those who love tariqah and saints and want to know the power of saints. The power of saints, no one can understand except saints themselves and that power is coming from the mercy that Allah granted to the Prophet (s).
And so Grandshaykh was listening to Sayyidina Shaykh Sharafuddin and not only seeing but also seeing as if living what Shaykh Sharafuddin was saying. Today you say live broadcast you see what is happening, but still you are only seeing on a screen. But awliyaullah they feel what happened, they see, they hear, they feel they tasted that is kashf.
So Sayyidina Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, at that moment he was experiencing that and Shaykh Sharafuddin said to him, "O my son, "O my son, don’t look at that too much. That is not yet too much. Since the moment Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu was created and til he leave dunya, in every step he step from day one, even the step with his mother carrying him, that will be counted or his father or brother carry him, those steps will be counted and all the steps he step in his life, on every step accumulated all of them together, Allah will create angels will create angels on the number of steps he stepped in his life Allah will create angels that will do istighfaar and this istigfhaar will be writing on Ummat an-Nabi (s).”
“And on every breath coming in and coming out, Allah creates angels for every breath coming in and for every breath coming out, with their secrets as when you breath in you breath in oxygen but here he breathes in secrets and he breathes out secrets that he sends to his follower. As he breathes in he receives secrets from the Prophet (s) and as he breathes out he sends out those secrets to be dressed on his followers.”
And he said, "More than that…” Shaykh Sharafuddin said, and I mentioned that in the book Naqshbandi Sufi Way that there are nine awliyaullah that have Sultan adh-Dhikr. I explained that in the book but now we pass through it.
“In every breath, Sultan adh-Dhikr come in and on every breath Sultan adh-Dhikr goes out.”
Sultan adh-Dhikr, only nine awliyaullah that have Sultan adh-Dhikr. How long it take to recite Holy Qur'an. 15 hours? Nearly 15 hours if someone wants to read the whole Qur'an from beginning to end, non-stop. Or 16 hours.
Sultan adh-Dhikr is not that. You can complete the whole Holy Qur'an in 16 hours or 15 hours if you recite from beginning to end. Sultan adh-Dhikr is that as you are breathing in you complete the whole Qur'an in breathing in. And still that is not Sultan adh-Dhikr. And when you breathe out you breathe out with khatm al-Qur'an. Breathe in to complete whole Qur'an and Allah stretches for you the time and you finish the whole Qur'an in one breath. And that is not Sultan adh-Dhikr; that is given to many awliyaullah
Sultan adh-Dhikr is when you breathe in, that is Sultan adh-Dhikr when you breathe in the Holy Qur'an and on every letter there are 12,000 oceans of knowledge, with that breath in. It doesn’t come like words coming, as if someone is reading, but it comes with its secrets. It comes with 12,000 oceans of meanings and secrets on every letter, and when you breathe out there is on every letter 12,000 oceans of knowledge and each knowledge is different from the other knowledge.
When you breathe in and breathe out how long it takes? Three seconds. And then the next time you breathe in and breathe out, another 12,000 oceans of secrets on every letter on every breath in and 12,000 oceans of secrets on every letter breathing out.
So because you are related to these saints, and this chain, who achieved Sultan adh-Dhikr and one of them is Grandshaykh and then Shaykh Nazim and Shaykh Sharafuddin ad-Daghestani and 5 others. So as much as you read Qur'an, as much as you read, passing your finger under the letters, if you read one juz or 2 juz they will give to your heart the secrets of this knowledge that they are dressed with it.
And he said that “with the first breath after he came out of his mother, his breathing in and breathing out is with Sultan adh-Dhikr and it is all written for Ummat an-Nabi (s).”
“At age of one year, Allah swt gave permission to the Prophet (s) for the Prophet (s) to appoint for him angels from the nearness angels, that are always in the presence of Allah and always in presence of the Prophet (s) – Allah has assigned these angels and given the to the Prophet (s) to assign to Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu to raise him and teach him knowledge.”
That is why Sayyidina Abdul Qadir Jilani Qaddasallahu Sirrahu is given the Ghawthiyya. So Shaykh Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu has that specialty that Sayyidina Abdul Qadir Jilani Qaddasallahu Sirrahu had it. He said that, “Also Allah ordered Sayyidina Khidr Alayhissalam to be always in his company. Never he left him. Always he was in the company of Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu and guiding what he has to do and teaching him along with the angels that have been assigned to guide him.”
“And as he was young he was guiding young children even to tariqah. From the age of 5 to age of 7 he was able to bring 5,000 kids to come to tariqah because of the power of his talk when he speak he throws pearls into the hearts of children.”
He said, Shaykh Sharafuddin speaking to Grandshaykh Abdullah al-Faiz Daghestani that “When he became 15 years of age a complete transformation of his spirituality happened, that he was able to raise that transformation of his reality faster, achieving the learning from the angels and Sayyidina Khidr Alayhissalam, and he was able to reach a level in praise with infinite number of angels and he is there; his spirituality never left them. And that is why when he makes du`a or munajaat that his du`a was 12,000 times higher than those angels through his spirituality. And the Prophet (s) assigned him as a saint for those angels that he was able to guide them how to praise and for that praise to be written to Ummat an-Nabi (s).”
He said, "That when he became 17 years of age, in this level, he was able to reach the highest level of perfection that is why he is called Ghawth, Ghawth az-Zamaan, that have passed before him and they are in jannat al-barzakh and whatever high levels he is giving to those he reached that and he reached ot make sajda under the `Arsh.
And he said, "under that `Arsh there was a white river that has an infinite number of creations that Allah has created them to be like a beauty for Paradise, from men and women. Women were from hur ul-`ayn in that white river there. It looks like a river, very white and it is full of hur al-`ayn and full of young men in Paradise as mentioned in Surat ad-Dahr:
وَيَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمْ وِلْدَانٌ مُّخَلَّدُونَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَهُمْ حَسِبْتَهُمْ لُؤْلُؤًا مَّنثُورًا وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ ثَمَّ رَأَيْتَ نَعِيمًا وَمُلْكًا كَبِيرًا
Yatoofu alayhim wildaanan mukhaladoon wa idha ra’ita ra’ita na`eeman wa mulkan kabeera.
And round about them will (serve) youths of perpetual (freshness): If thou seest them, thou wouldst think them scattered Pearls. And when thou lookest, it is there thou wilt see a Bliss and a Realm Magnificent. Al-Insan [76:19]”
“Allah mentioned in Surat ad-Dahr, that they are encircumambulated with young teenage men, wildaanan mukhaladoon, young ones that are everlasting they don’t grow old and they are in continuous tawaaf, and if you look at them you see these young men like white pearls.”
And that is why he said that is like a white river and he said, "You cannot count them, no beginning and no end. “
“Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu he was raised to make sajda under the Throne and there was a white river there full of hur al-`ayn and full of young men like white pearls and all of them are listening to his advice and Shah Naqshband is assigning this one to be of service to this mureed, to this one, 100; to this one to be of 1000, to this one to be 1 million. And that is one of his specialties to assign them to members of Ummat an-Nabi (s).”
This is one glimpse of awliyaullah.
He said that, “When he became 19 years of age, the Prophet (s) called all prophets messengers and prophets to dress him from their powers and also to be able to teach Ummat an-Nabi (s) that they came before and that they came after until the Day of Judgment. It is a specialty of Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu and not only in his time but before, up to Sayyidina Adam Alayhissalam and to prepare them for Judgment Day in order to be ready for it.” And always he said, "that he was sitting besides Sayyidina Abu Bakr as-Siddiq Radiallahu anhu. And taking from his heart and speaking.”
And may Allah bless us and forgive us and I think this is enough about Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu.
This is awliyaullah describing Sayyidina Shah Naqshband Qaddasallahu Sirrahu. This is for us know. What is above that I don’t think we can take
it. Bihurmati Habib Fatihah.

The Blessings of Sayyidina Ibrahim's Flocks
Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani
Friday, May 15, 2009 | Fenton, MI US
Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem
And another time coming to life to be slaughtered another time until the Day of Judgment for the love of Ummatu ’n-Nabi (saws). And when he has been slaughtered, that’s why it’s important to say “Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem, bismillah Allahu Akbar” and we make the niyyah there on whatever is slaughtered in this way, that the sheep will take all the sin (when the blood is coming out), all that sin or that punishment, that is going to be on the person who is slaughtering or the person who is asking someone to slaughter, or whoever is giving the money to slaughter a sheep, all his sin will be taken away with the blood that comes from the sheep.
That’s why Grandshaykh never allowed anyone because you can see many people, when they slaughter, the cats come to the blood, and they eat the blood. Grandshaykh never allowed that. He said, that the person who is slaughtering the sheep has to bury the blood because that blood is carrying that sin with it. And he says when you eat, and the bone you gather, don’t throw them here and there. If you put them in the ground, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala will create a lamb from that bone another time. It’s not necessary that Allah needs to use the same bone but it is a symbol that another lamb will be replaced from this lamb.
He [Grandshaykh] said, when Sayyidina Ibrahim (as)… Jibreel (as) came to test him: Sayyidina Ibrahim has a big flock of sheep; he was a shepherd. The whole valley was full of the sheep of Sayyidina Ibrahim (as). So Jibreel (as) came and he said, “Ya Ibrahim” (he was hiding himself so that Sayyidina Ibrahim would not know him). He said “Ya Ibrahim it’s surprising, you look this valley is full of your sheep. I have nothing; you have everything.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said, “Why you are so worried about if I have and you don’t have. You want one-third of them? I will give you.”
He [Jibreel (as)] said, “Yes of course I like one-third of them.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said, “Okay, say ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’. For that only, I give you one third of my sheep that they are filling the valley.” That means thousands and thousands of sheep. Baraka. Sayyidina Ibrahim “al-khaleel!” his hand is baraka.
So Jibreel (as) said ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’and immediately with Sayyidina Ibrahim power as prophet, one line like that, he moved one-third of the herd toward Jibreel (a).
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (as)] said, “These are yours, you take them.”
He [Jibreel (as)] said “Oh, that’s nice, I like that. But still you have too much.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] said, “You want more?”
[Jibreel (a) said] “Of course, I like more. I have one-third, you have two-third; you have still too much!”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] said “Okay, say ‘subuha suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’ and I will give you half of what is left. (Means one-third). And Sayyidina Jibreel said ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’and with Sayyidina Ibrahim prophetic power he moved half of whatever was left to him.
Jibreel was looking and he was surprised. How can a person have so much? Allah gave him wealth and he gave it for reciting one name – ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’!
“suboohun qudoos’…” means “the one that you make, only to him, tasbih and holiness is Allah; he is the lord the creator of angels and soul – ruh.” There are two scholarly opinions about ruh – one says that it is an angel, one say it is soul. In any case he is the creator of angels and ruh.
Ibrahim looked at him and understood. He said “Oh my brother he is hiding, not telling him that I knew you.” He said “oh my brother, do you want the rest?”
[Jibreel (a) said] “Yeah, why not; I will take them.” Just to show how much we [humans] are like that. Jibreel (a) is showing our character, not him, he is an angel. He said, “Yes I will take them.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] said, “Now say suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu malaikatuhu wa’l ruh. Our Lord and your Lord. Before ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’’ – rabbu. Now Rabbuna; in plural to everyone I give you that. Means you are saying on behalf of the Ummatu ’n-Nabi (S). “I know you are Jibreel! Don’t say rabbu, the creator of angels and ruh, say rabbuna He is our Lord as human beings and creator of angels and ruh.
I know you. Don’t hide yourself. I want my share now; what’s left. I am human you are angel.” So before you had said rabbu malaikati wa’r-ruh. Now you say rabbuna – our lord of humans, angels and ruh; and I give you the rest. So Jibreel said suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’. He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] gave him everything and he left. He didn’t look behind to say how much I gave him? He didn’t look.
That’s why when you give you don’t look what you are giving. Some people they want to give intention, good intention comes to their heart to give. Say, oh I want to give 1 dollar. Your intention comes to give one dollar. Someone says I want to give $10,000 your intention comes $10,000 and Shaytaan comes and says, “Why you want to give $10,000? For what? Too much? Ah..bargain.” So Shaytaan is bargaining with you: “10,000 is too much – five?” It’s okay. He doesn’t want to reduce quickly. “Five?”
Then he say okay, five. I will give five. It’s normal. He doesn’t’ need. The shaykh doesn’t need more, why to give more for my friend or my brother or my sister. Ah, five. Then Shaytaan comes and says, “Still too much. Why, don’t you keep it for yourself; you don’t know when the bad days comes.” He doesn’t say Allah is ar-Razzaq, you give Allah, gives. You give little bit; Allah gives more. Mawlana said that chain of rizq is from heavens over your head – connecting. It has to touch your head. That chain of rizq. That chain of provision. So when you cut, it has to come back to your head. When you cut it for Allah not cut it for disco or cut it for going to bars or discos. No when you cut it for sadaqa or charity or gift, it comes back to your hand; as much as you cut as much as you give. So don’t be stingy! Shaytaan might drop you from $10,000 - $100.
So Sayyidina Ibrahim didn’t want to look. He gave gift. Because when you look back you will feel bad, why I gave? Huh, Shaykh? Shaykh Ihsan ? Why I gave? Shaykh Ihsan is working; his brother is not working. He gives his brother and then after Hamida comes and says, “Dad, why you gave him so much? We need money. Why are you giving to my uncle too much; make it less.” Then Shaykh Ihsan says, “Yes, she is right. Also, he has some money why he doesn’t give us?” Then it’s struggle inside.
Sayyidina Ibrahim didn’t look back. He didn’t want. I gave I gave – for Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala. So, Sayyidina Jibreel said, “Ya Ibrahim where are you going? Come back.
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said “No! I gave you, I don’t want to come back. I don’t have anything. I gave you everything. What you want more? My clothes? I give you my clothes also.
He said, “No I am Jibreel (a).”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said “Jibreel? I don’t understand. I gave; I gave! It’s finished. How you say you are Jibreel? Okay. You are Jibreel, Israfil, Mikhail, Ridwan, Malik. Anyone of them, I am not interested. I gave to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala.
[Jibreel (a) said] “Ya Ibrahim Please, come! What am I going to do with them?”
This is when one incident happened when Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala said to Angels:
وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلاَئِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً قَالُواْ أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاء وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ
“Innee-j`a’ilun fi’l-ardi khalifa. Qala a-taj`alu feeha man yufsidu feeha wa yusfik ad-dima’u wa nahnu nusabiho bi-hamdika wa nuqadisu lak. (2:30)
He said “I’m going to make Khalifa on earth.” They said “How are you going to, ya Rabb? Oh Allah! Why you are going to make Khalifa on Earth? They are going to be corrupted! They are going to have bloodshed!” [Then Allah said] “Innee `aallamu, ma laa t`alamoon! I know more than what you know! Don’t give me any arguments!” How angels complained! Even angels…So Allah said, “No I know more; I am going to show you. Ya Jibreel, come! You are the head of angels, come! Go to Ibrahim and see one of my Khalifas; see how he is going to act.” That’s where he sent him when Ibrahim was guiding the flock, moving the flock of sheep.
So he [Jibreel] said “Ya Ibrahim! I am Jibreel!” He [Ibrahim] said, “No, no no! Jibreel? Not Jibreel He’s finished. I gave to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala. You gave me three words, that’s what I wanted. This is my kingdom, these are my treasures.
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh
suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh.
That’s why in awraad we do it 100x a day
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh.’
Every two, the third one will be subuhu quddus rabbuna wa rabbu malaikatuhu wa’l ruh. To be sharing from Sayyidina Ibrahim, all the blessings that he got at that time from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala will dress us with his blessing when we do this 100x. So Sayyidina Ibrahim did it 3 times, we are doing it 33x.
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh
(third time) suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh.
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh’
Say! (Everyone says it)
All that, now we said it three times or nine. Every time was as if you gave Gabriel (a) that number of sheep as a gift! Allah will dress you with what he dressed Sayyidina Ibrahim. So every three, you will be dressed with what Allah dressed Sayyidina Ibrahim in that occasion. Another three, another three, until 100, means that you’ve done it 33x total. Look how much awliyaullah they understand and they have secrets that they are giving to the Ummah. With something small, you get something big! He (Jibreel) said, “Oh Ibrahim, come take them!” He said “No! I gave to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala” its so simple to recite three as if you have given a whole herd to Jibreel (a) for Allah’s sake!
Grandshaykh said, "The valley has no end. Thousands of them, thousands. So then a voice came: “Ya Jibreel, even if you want to run after him, he’s not going to give up! He gave, he gave to Allah, and he’s not going to pull back. Leave him alone! Take that and put them behind Jabal Qaf (Mountain of Qaf) Mountain that’s beyond the limit of dunya, Earth, where all jinn, the Sultan of jinn are waiting for permission to come on Earth.
There Sayyidina Mahdi (a) always his khulafa, and his deputy goes there and come. There, behind Jabal Qaf, that mountain, “Qaf. W’al Qurani’l-Majeed!” –Surah al-Kahf, that secret, that mountain, which is called ‘Qaf’ that is behind the limit of dunya. He (Allah) said, “Take them there, and they are going to multiply from the time of Sayyidina Ibrahim (a) to the time of Sayyidina Mahdi (a), they are multiplying. When Mahdi appears, they are all coming on Earth to this dunya. Allah is sending them here to be food for ummat-un Nabi (S). Grandshaykh said “One bite from that meat, one bite, and they are ready to sacrifice themselves for the benefit of the Ummah. One bite of that meat is enough for 40 days, you don’t eat. In time of Sayyidina Mahdi you eat one bite every 40 days. You don’t need to eat more; it’s enough. That is coming InshAllah. So all these sheep are waiting for the permission to be granted to come towards us here."
May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala give us the blessings of this Friday. And now it is the most important hour in the week: it’s before Maghrib by one hour. I think [right] now it’s one hour before Maghrib. The hour that awliyaullah are looking for it because Prophet (S) said there is one hour from Maghrib of Thursday to Maghrib of Friday there is one hour that du’a is accepted and Grandshaykh (may Allah bless his soul) said 40 years ago that “Allah opened up the tajalli of that hour to be known to awliyaullah (from 30 years ago, not 40) to be on Friday before one hour from Maghrib (after ‘Asr before Maghrib by one hour) anyone who makes du’a there, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala will accept his prayer.

Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem
And another time coming to life to be slaughtered another time until the Day of Judgment for the love of Ummatu ’n-Nabi (saws). And when he has been slaughtered, that’s why it’s important to say “Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem, bismillah Allahu Akbar” and we make the niyyah there on whatever is slaughtered in this way, that the sheep will take all the sin (when the blood is coming out), all that sin or that punishment, that is going to be on the person who is slaughtering or the person who is asking someone to slaughter, or whoever is giving the money to slaughter a sheep, all his sin will be taken away with the blood that comes from the sheep.
That’s why Grandshaykh never allowed anyone because you can see many people, when they slaughter, the cats come to the blood, and they eat the blood. Grandshaykh never allowed that. He said, that the person who is slaughtering the sheep has to bury the blood because that blood is carrying that sin with it. And he says when you eat, and the bone you gather, don’t throw them here and there. If you put them in the ground, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala will create a lamb from that bone another time. It’s not necessary that Allah needs to use the same bone but it is a symbol that another lamb will be replaced from this lamb.
He [Grandshaykh] said, when Sayyidina Ibrahim (as)… Jibreel (as) came to test him: Sayyidina Ibrahim has a big flock of sheep; he was a shepherd. The whole valley was full of the sheep of Sayyidina Ibrahim (as). So Jibreel (as) came and he said, “Ya Ibrahim” (he was hiding himself so that Sayyidina Ibrahim would not know him). He said “Ya Ibrahim it’s surprising, you look this valley is full of your sheep. I have nothing; you have everything.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said, “Why you are so worried about if I have and you don’t have. You want one-third of them? I will give you.”
He [Jibreel (as)] said, “Yes of course I like one-third of them.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said, “Okay, say ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’. For that only, I give you one third of my sheep that they are filling the valley.” That means thousands and thousands of sheep. Baraka. Sayyidina Ibrahim “al-khaleel!” his hand is baraka.
So Jibreel (as) said ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’and immediately with Sayyidina Ibrahim power as prophet, one line like that, he moved one-third of the herd toward Jibreel (a).
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (as)] said, “These are yours, you take them.”
He [Jibreel (as)] said “Oh, that’s nice, I like that. But still you have too much.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] said, “You want more?”
[Jibreel (a) said] “Of course, I like more. I have one-third, you have two-third; you have still too much!”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] said “Okay, say ‘subuha suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’ and I will give you half of what is left. (Means one-third). And Sayyidina Jibreel said ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’and with Sayyidina Ibrahim prophetic power he moved half of whatever was left to him.
Jibreel was looking and he was surprised. How can a person have so much? Allah gave him wealth and he gave it for reciting one name – ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’!
“suboohun qudoos’…” means “the one that you make, only to him, tasbih and holiness is Allah; he is the lord the creator of angels and soul – ruh.” There are two scholarly opinions about ruh – one says that it is an angel, one say it is soul. In any case he is the creator of angels and ruh.
Ibrahim looked at him and understood. He said “Oh my brother he is hiding, not telling him that I knew you.” He said “oh my brother, do you want the rest?”
[Jibreel (a) said] “Yeah, why not; I will take them.” Just to show how much we [humans] are like that. Jibreel (a) is showing our character, not him, he is an angel. He said, “Yes I will take them.”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] said, “Now say suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu malaikatuhu wa’l ruh. Our Lord and your Lord. Before ‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’’ – rabbu. Now Rabbuna; in plural to everyone I give you that. Means you are saying on behalf of the Ummatu ’n-Nabi (S). “I know you are Jibreel! Don’t say rabbu, the creator of angels and ruh, say rabbuna He is our Lord as human beings and creator of angels and ruh.
I know you. Don’t hide yourself. I want my share now; what’s left. I am human you are angel.” So before you had said rabbu malaikati wa’r-ruh. Now you say rabbuna – our lord of humans, angels and ruh; and I give you the rest. So Jibreel said suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’. He [Sayyidina Ibrahim (a)] gave him everything and he left. He didn’t look behind to say how much I gave him? He didn’t look.
That’s why when you give you don’t look what you are giving. Some people they want to give intention, good intention comes to their heart to give. Say, oh I want to give 1 dollar. Your intention comes to give one dollar. Someone says I want to give $10,000 your intention comes $10,000 and Shaytaan comes and says, “Why you want to give $10,000? For what? Too much? Ah..bargain.” So Shaytaan is bargaining with you: “10,000 is too much – five?” It’s okay. He doesn’t want to reduce quickly. “Five?”
Then he say okay, five. I will give five. It’s normal. He doesn’t’ need. The shaykh doesn’t need more, why to give more for my friend or my brother or my sister. Ah, five. Then Shaytaan comes and says, “Still too much. Why, don’t you keep it for yourself; you don’t know when the bad days comes.” He doesn’t say Allah is ar-Razzaq, you give Allah, gives. You give little bit; Allah gives more. Mawlana said that chain of rizq is from heavens over your head – connecting. It has to touch your head. That chain of rizq. That chain of provision. So when you cut, it has to come back to your head. When you cut it for Allah not cut it for disco or cut it for going to bars or discos. No when you cut it for sadaqa or charity or gift, it comes back to your hand; as much as you cut as much as you give. So don’t be stingy! Shaytaan might drop you from $10,000 - $100.
So Sayyidina Ibrahim didn’t want to look. He gave gift. Because when you look back you will feel bad, why I gave? Huh, Shaykh? Shaykh Ihsan ? Why I gave? Shaykh Ihsan is working; his brother is not working. He gives his brother and then after Hamida comes and says, “Dad, why you gave him so much? We need money. Why are you giving to my uncle too much; make it less.” Then Shaykh Ihsan says, “Yes, she is right. Also, he has some money why he doesn’t give us?” Then it’s struggle inside.
Sayyidina Ibrahim didn’t look back. He didn’t want. I gave I gave – for Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala. So, Sayyidina Jibreel said, “Ya Ibrahim where are you going? Come back.
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said “No! I gave you, I don’t want to come back. I don’t have anything. I gave you everything. What you want more? My clothes? I give you my clothes also.
He said, “No I am Jibreel (a).”
He [Sayyidina Ibrahim] said “Jibreel? I don’t understand. I gave; I gave! It’s finished. How you say you are Jibreel? Okay. You are Jibreel, Israfil, Mikhail, Ridwan, Malik. Anyone of them, I am not interested. I gave to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala.
[Jibreel (a) said] “Ya Ibrahim Please, come! What am I going to do with them?”
This is when one incident happened when Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala said to Angels:
وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلاَئِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً قَالُواْ أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاء وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ
“Innee-j`a’ilun fi’l-ardi khalifa. Qala a-taj`alu feeha man yufsidu feeha wa yusfik ad-dima’u wa nahnu nusabiho bi-hamdika wa nuqadisu lak. (2:30)
He said “I’m going to make Khalifa on earth.” They said “How are you going to, ya Rabb? Oh Allah! Why you are going to make Khalifa on Earth? They are going to be corrupted! They are going to have bloodshed!” [Then Allah said] “Innee `aallamu, ma laa t`alamoon! I know more than what you know! Don’t give me any arguments!” How angels complained! Even angels…So Allah said, “No I know more; I am going to show you. Ya Jibreel, come! You are the head of angels, come! Go to Ibrahim and see one of my Khalifas; see how he is going to act.” That’s where he sent him when Ibrahim was guiding the flock, moving the flock of sheep.
So he [Jibreel] said “Ya Ibrahim! I am Jibreel!” He [Ibrahim] said, “No, no no! Jibreel? Not Jibreel He’s finished. I gave to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala. You gave me three words, that’s what I wanted. This is my kingdom, these are my treasures.
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh
suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh.
That’s why in awraad we do it 100x a day
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh.’
Every two, the third one will be subuhu quddus rabbuna wa rabbu malaikatuhu wa’l ruh. To be sharing from Sayyidina Ibrahim, all the blessings that he got at that time from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala will dress us with his blessing when we do this 100x. So Sayyidina Ibrahim did it 3 times, we are doing it 33x.
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh
(third time) suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh.
‘suboohun qudoos rabbul-malaikati wa’r-ruh ruh’
‘suboohun qudoos rabbuna wa rabbu’l-malaikatuhu wa’r-ruh’
Say! (Everyone says it)
All that, now we said it three times or nine. Every time was as if you gave Gabriel (a) that number of sheep as a gift! Allah will dress you with what he dressed Sayyidina Ibrahim. So every three, you will be dressed with what Allah dressed Sayyidina Ibrahim in that occasion. Another three, another three, until 100, means that you’ve done it 33x total. Look how much awliyaullah they understand and they have secrets that they are giving to the Ummah. With something small, you get something big! He (Jibreel) said, “Oh Ibrahim, come take them!” He said “No! I gave to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala” its so simple to recite three as if you have given a whole herd to Jibreel (a) for Allah’s sake!
Grandshaykh said, "The valley has no end. Thousands of them, thousands. So then a voice came: “Ya Jibreel, even if you want to run after him, he’s not going to give up! He gave, he gave to Allah, and he’s not going to pull back. Leave him alone! Take that and put them behind Jabal Qaf (Mountain of Qaf) Mountain that’s beyond the limit of dunya, Earth, where all jinn, the Sultan of jinn are waiting for permission to come on Earth.
There Sayyidina Mahdi (a) always his khulafa, and his deputy goes there and come. There, behind Jabal Qaf, that mountain, “Qaf. W’al Qurani’l-Majeed!” –Surah al-Kahf, that secret, that mountain, which is called ‘Qaf’ that is behind the limit of dunya. He (Allah) said, “Take them there, and they are going to multiply from the time of Sayyidina Ibrahim (a) to the time of Sayyidina Mahdi (a), they are multiplying. When Mahdi appears, they are all coming on Earth to this dunya. Allah is sending them here to be food for ummat-un Nabi (S). Grandshaykh said “One bite from that meat, one bite, and they are ready to sacrifice themselves for the benefit of the Ummah. One bite of that meat is enough for 40 days, you don’t eat. In time of Sayyidina Mahdi you eat one bite every 40 days. You don’t need to eat more; it’s enough. That is coming InshAllah. So all these sheep are waiting for the permission to be granted to come towards us here."
May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala give us the blessings of this Friday. And now it is the most important hour in the week: it’s before Maghrib by one hour. I think [right] now it’s one hour before Maghrib. The hour that awliyaullah are looking for it because Prophet (S) said there is one hour from Maghrib of Thursday to Maghrib of Friday there is one hour that du’a is accepted and Grandshaykh (may Allah bless his soul) said 40 years ago that “Allah opened up the tajalli of that hour to be known to awliyaullah (from 30 years ago, not 40) to be on Friday before one hour from Maghrib (after ‘Asr before Maghrib by one hour) anyone who makes du’a there, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta`ala will accept his prayer.
