    Habibullah, Ahmad.

    As-Salaam alaikum, Ahmad is one of the 98 or so names of our dear Prophet Muhammad, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, the coolness of the hearts of believers on the Day of Reckoning. Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, called him Ahmad in the Holy Qur'an:-- ''And remember when Isa son of Maryam said, 'O children of Isra'el, I am Allah's Messenger to you, confirming the previous Book Tauraat before me and conveying the glad tidings of the Messenger who will come after me, his name is Ahmad.'' ( Saffi- 61:6) In the attached Sunni Way document, find out what this name Ahmad means, its significance and why the Noble Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, is so called. Best Regards.

    Preparing for and Remembering Death.

    As-Salaam alaikum, Malik Ibn Anas reported from Yahya Ibn Sa'eed who quoted it from Sa'eed Ibn al-Musayyab, who quoted it in turn from Umar Ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with them all, who reported that the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:-- ''Always remember the terminator of pleasures'', so we asked: 'What is the terminator of pleasures, Ya Rasulullah?'' He replied: ''It is death.'' (Hadith Sahih) In another hadith, on the authority of Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:-- ''Remember death recurrently because so doing wipes out sins and makes you disregard this worldly life.'' So, if one is in distress, remembering death will alleviate his or her pain because it (death) is harder than any other misery. And if he is in a state of happiness and abundance, remembering death protects him/her from rolling in the pleasures of life and counting on it.... as he/she knows he will part with it one day.

    Wonderful...

    As-Salaam alaikum, In a hadith-qudsi, Allah Ta'ala says:-- ''For Me, the most blessed of My Friends is the person of faith who is unburdened (by possessions), who takes pleasure in prayer, who carries out well his devotion to his Lord and eagerly serves Him in secret. He is concealed among the people; no one points him out. His sustenance is barely sufficient, and he is content with that... His death comes quickly, there are few mourners, and his estate is small.'' This hadith is included, with minor variations, in the canonical collections of Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah and Ibn Hanbal.

    Hadith Of Jabir Ibn Abdullah.

    As-Salaam alaikum, It is related that Jabir Ibn Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, said to the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, ''O Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you, tell me of the first thing Allah created before all things.'' He said, ''O Jabir, the first thing Allah created was the light of your Prophet from His Light, and that light remained in the midst of His Power for as long as He wished, and there was not, at that time, a Tablet or a Pen or an earth. And when Allah wished to create creation, He divided that light into four parts and from the first made the Pen, from the second the Tablet, from the third the Throne, and from the fourth everything else.'' Judgements/interpretation on this narration may vary among scholars, but whatever the variation, we agree that the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, being a Mercy to all, is linked to the fact that he is the intermediary of the Divine outpouring over all contingencies-- that is, all created things without exception. Ibn al-Hajj al-Abdari (d. 736) cites Hadith Jabir in his book 'Al-Madkhal'....citing it from Muhammad Ibn al-Layth's book ''Shifa al-Sudur'' where he says: ''The first thing Allah created is the light of Muhammad, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, and that light came and prostrated before Allah. Allah divided it into four parts and created from the first the Throne, from the second the Pen, from the third the Tablet and then similarly He subdivided the fourth into parts and created the rest of creation..'' (Alusi: Ruh al-Ma'ani 8:71)

    The Heart As House Of Allah.

    As-Salaam alaikum, In the hadith, the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said: ''QALB AL-MUMIN BAYT AR-RABB...The heart of the believer is the House of the Lord.'' And in a hadith-qudsi, Allah Ta'ala says: ''NEITHER EARTH NOR HEAVENS CONTAINED ME, BUT THE HEART OF THE BELIEVER CONTAINED ME.'' This is when the believer's hear is free of any impurities and all that is other than Allah Ta'ala... the heart becomes Allah's Mansion; Allah's House when it becomes a place of His Self-manifestation, a place to contemplate Him and keep His Secret, the right place to receive the responsibility of Allah's Trust, as the means to know Allah with Allah, as He says in the Holy tradition (hadith qudsi):-- ''I have built inside the heart of the son of Adam, a palace (qasar); in the chest there is a heart (qalb); in the heart, there is the inner heart (fu'ad); and in the inner heart, there is an innermost heart (shaghaf); and in the shaghaf, there is the kernel (lubb); and in the kernel, there is secret (sirr); in the sirr/secret, there is Me; that is the secret refers to the place for My manifestation and the place to know Me.'' We get to understand this more, when we recall another hadith-qudsi where Allah Ta'ala says:-- ''Man is My secret and I am his secret..'' meaning that Allah placed His secret or illuminative knowledge (ma'arifah) in man-- with which man hears and sees Allah in all he does. Nay, he exists only by Allah's Existence.

    Knowing Allah.

    As-Salaam alaikum, A traditional Sufi saying states that 'No one knows Allah but Allah'. Quite true! But in the hearts of His lovers, Allah Ta'ala reveals His Divine mysteries... reveals marvels about His Names and Attributes. An undisputed inner truth is that Allah is One and Only.... meaning that only He has real existence (Wujud) and that all other things exist only through His existence and life. As the shadow is completely dependent on origin and without it is non-existent; in the same way world and creation altogether are but shadows of manifested reality. However, His having the only true existence does NOT imply idea of incarnation or dwelling in creation as some people may conclude from the doctrine of Oneness of Being (Wahdatu-l-Wujud). His reality or Essence (Dhat) is beyond time, space or any conditions whatsoever. He is neither in world nor absent from it. In His proximity, He is the near, in His Loftiness, the Observer. Power, Splendor, Grandeur and Magnificence are His.. whose Essence is great beyond any resemblance to other essences. Glory be to Allah, the Creator and Lord of Cosmos, Mighty in His Magnificence, Grand in His Splendor. ''There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the Hearing, the Seeing.'' (Shura- 42:11)

    Trust In Allah (Tawakkul)

    As-Salaam alaikum, ''And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, He shall suffice him'' ( Talaq, 65:3) ''And in Allah let the believers put all their trust'' (Ibrahim, 14:11) In the Hadith also, it is related that the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said: "There shall enter paradise of my community 70,000 without reckoning: those are they that neither make auguries, nor brand themselves, nor use spells, but trust their Lord.'' (Bukhari) Trust in itself and its manifestation in the heart, is this: to believe in Allah and to rely on Him, taking rest and assurance in Him as regards all that He has guaranteed; to expel from the heart all anxiety over the affairs of this world, and the means of Sustenance, and every matter of which Allah has Himself taken charge; and to know that of every matter of which man stand in need, be it of this world or the next, Allah is the ruler and Provider, for none but Allah can bring it to him, and none but Allah can with hold it from him. In trust, all desire and trepidation must depart from the heart, with all fear, if these be connected with other than Allah: for a man must have confidence in Him, and a full knowledge and firm conviction that Allah's hand is outreached towards him, to provide him with all that he seeks-- for no good shall befall him save by Allah's Command and no evil shall overtake him save with His leave.

    Honourable Search.

    I searched for honour, I found it in service to the creatures. I searched for leadership, I found it in the creatures welfare. I searched for humility, I found it in truth. I searched for the source of pride, I found it in Faqr. I searched for a valuable relationship in the Hereafter, I found it Taqwa (Fear of Allah the Almighty). I searched for highness, I found it in Qana'at (contentment). I searched for peace, I found it in Zuhd (Piety). Sayyadi Uways al-Qarni.

    Keep To That Spiritual Struggle.

    As-Salaam alaikum, Today, people say that society's condition is really bad; what can we do? The way out is to run to Allah Ta'ala....by taking serious steps to shun sin. We read it in ayat 50 of Surat Zariyat of the Holy Qur'an:-- ''Hasten ye then [flee] to Allah'' (51:50) We must resist the temptation to let our guards down in the face of modernity's laxity in sinful conduct and promiscuity. According to our Ulama, the way to do this is through mujahadah-- Spiritual Struggle against Sins and one's egotistical soul, to bring ourselves in line with Allah's Loving Obedience. When we live our lives in loving surrender and sincere worship of Allah Ta'ala, we stand to be lifted to a station of an ta'budullah Ka annaka tara- ''that you worship Allah as though seeing Him' (Al-Bukhari, No. 6502)
  19. Abu Habiba

    The Prophet Is In You...

    As-Salaam alaikum, ''Wa'alamoo anna feekum Rasulullah.... And know [that] Allah's Messenger is in you.'' (49:7) Know that the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, is in you; his Light and his presence is with you every moment. He has been sent to all human beings. How? The Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:-- ''Human beings are born on fitrah, innocence: his parents make him either Jewish or Christian or Zoroastrian.'' (Muslim) Being born on Taqwa or Innocence in real terms means Muhammad, who is the real manifestation of the Beautiful Names of Allah. ''Either his parents make him Christian, Jew or Zoroastrian'', but in reality every newly born child is a mu'min... a Muslim; and he could not have been a Muslim and a Mu'min if the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, were not there. So, it means that a speck of the reality of the Prophet's Light is in every human being. As we grow from infant to adult age, that Light will ignite with Love of the Prophet, and our sending/recital of Salawaat ala Nabiy and ardent worship of Allah Ta'ala....

    Authority of The Hadith in Islam..

    As-Salaam alaikum, The Noble Prophet Muhammad, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:-- ''Let me not find one of you, reclining on his couch, when he hears something regarding what I have commanded or forbidden saying: 'We do not know. What we found in Allah's Book we have followed'. (Abu Dawud) In the attached document, Mufti Ahmed Yaar Khan gives us a brief but general reply to those who refute or undermine the necessity of Hadith.

    These Will Yield Reward for You...

    As-Salaam alaikum, On the authority of Abu Nu'aim, Qatada said quoting Anas Ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:-- ''Seven things will yield reward to a person even after his death: a knowledge he spread, a river he dug, a well he drilled, a palm tree he planted, a mosque (masjid) he built, a copy of the Qur'an he bequeathed, a virtuous son who will pray, for Allah to grant him forgiveness.''
