[Khatm.]
Alhamdulillahi Rabbi 'l-`Alameen, wa ’s-salaatu wa ’s-salaamu `alaa ashrafi 'l-mursaleena Sayyidina wa Nabiyyina Muhammadin wa `alaa aalihi wa sahbihi ajma`een. Ama ba`d. Yaa `ibaadullah itaqullah feemaa amr. At-taqwa haahuna.
The muttaqoon is on the highest level. May Allah make us from the muttaqeen.
I have nothing to say, but what Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Adil (q) and Grandshaykh (q) said: just as you clean your laundry, these meetings clean you from all sins. That is why they were always urging their followers to attend dhikrullah and they never missed it. You are only excused from dhikr when you are sick, when you have an important guest that came from far away that you need to host, or if you have to do something for the benefit of people.
Grandshaykh (q), may Allah bless his soul, said when you are allowed to miss dhikrullah, there is no way other than the three scenarios mentioned. He said that if someone tells you, “Come `Ali! Let us go and enjoy,” even if he will give you two gold coins to take you somewhere at the time of dhikrullah, you are not allowed to do that, you must drop those two coins as if they don’t exist. Today, if we are offered not even two coins, but two cents, we are running to do that. So he said if we miss dhikrullah, it is as if we lost all gold coins of dunya. So this majlis is very important: it is a majlis under the name of Shah Mardan, and it is always under dhikrullah. Even if you come and sit without saying a word, all your sins are taken away! We ask Allah to write us among those people.
In this dunya you live for twenty, seventy, eighty, or a hundred years. What do you take with you? The world does not let you take even one bone; your worms don't leave anything on the bone, they even eat the bones. They did an experiment when they read the Hadith of the coccyx:
ليس من الإنسان شيء إلا يبلى ، إلا عظمًا واحدًا وهو عجب الذنب ، ومنه يركب الخلق يوم القيامة
There is nothing of the human body that does not decay except one bone; that is the little bone at the end of the coccyx, of which the human body will be recreated on the Day of Resurrection.
(Narrated, Abu Hurayrah. Sahih Bukhari)
There is nothing left of the (deceased) body, but the tail of the coccyx remains alive. Some scientists tried to burn it to see if the bone is still living or not. They put it under a thousand degrees Centigrade like when a body is created, then they checked it and found nothing happened to that bone and still that small atom of your body, the `ujb al-dhanah, still lived. Then they put it under high pressure to crush it to powder, and when they tested it, it was still alive! When Sayyidina Israfeel (a) blows in the trumpet by Allah's Order, every soul will come to that `ujb adh-dhanab, that bone, and people will be revived.
May Allah keep us through dhikrullah and not leave it for nothing. Even if you are sick, slowly, slowly come and attend. May Allah (swt) forgive us. This man is coming by a long flight from Alberta, to do what? To make dhikr and go. Is there anyone else coming from far away? That one. May Allah (swt) keep us in the circle of the Prophet (s) and for the honor of Awliyaullah we are asking, “Yaa Sayyidi, yaa Rasoolullah (s)! If you get us in, it will be our honor for you to look at us!” That is why the Prophet (s) said:
قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: إذا مررتم برياض الجنة فارتعوا. قالو وما رياض الجنة؟ قال "حلق الذكر"
Ibn `Umar reported that the Prophet (s) said, "When you pass by the Gardens of Paradise, avail yourselves of them." The Companions asked, "What are the Gardens of Paradise, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "The circles of dhikr.” (Tirmidhi)
The Prophet (s) says, “If you pass by these Gardens of Heaven, sit in them.” These are Gardens of Paradise on Earth, and we are visualizing Sayyidina Muhammad (s) and His Sahaabah (r), because these are the Gardens of Paradise and they must contain Sayyidina Muhammad (s). It means, “When you pass by Gardens of Paradise, sit with Me [Allah].”
What are these Gardens of Paradise? They are circles of dhikr. That is good tidings for us that wherever there is a Garden of Paradise, Prophet (s) is there. May Allah make us to be in these Gardens of Heavens. People ask, “What are Gardens of Heavens? Are there flowers in it, is there gold in it, is there anything special there?” No, there is nothing there that is for dunya. There is the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad (s) in every garden of dhikr. Allah said:
إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا
Verily, Allah and His angels send praise on the Prophet. O Believers! Pray upon him and greet him with a worthy salutation. (Surat al-Ahzaab, 33:56)
So that salawaat turns it into a Garden of Paradise. Say it once and it is a Garden of Paradise! We are in that dhikr and that is `ibaadah. It is very simple: Laa ilaaha illa-Llah Muhammadun Rasoolullah (s). Ash-hadu an laa ilaaha illa-Llah wa ash-hadu anna Muhammadu ‘r-Rasoolullah, `alayha nahya wa `alayha namoot wa `alayha nalqallah.
May Allah make for each of us a Jannat al-Mustafa (s).Wa min Allahi 't-tawfeeq, bi hurmati 'l-Fatihah.
The secret they are exposing, did you hear that before? Rasoolullah (s) is waiting for everyone to make dhikrullah and to be present in that garden. He is there, and when you make salawaat he says, “Whenever someone makes salawaat Allah will send ten on you.” You must pay attention that the Prophet (s) is calling on you to give you power for dunya and Akhirah. You might not see it now, but on your deathbed you will see it. Allah (swt) is The Creator: who can create when Allah created? He created you, your family, your earth, your paradise, He created the Prophet (s), He created everything. To believe in Allah The Creator is from the highest level of perfection. When you believe in Allah The Creator, that can demolish everything.
