O Muslims! O human beings! Allah swt has sent messengers, prophets, in order to guide humanity to what Allah swt likes. Because Allah said in Holy Qur'an, fa alhamaha fujooraha wa taqwaha - He inspired the self what is good and what is bad. So Allah swt wants humanity to be good in order that everyone will live in harmony with the others. As you look at the constellations in the universe, always they are on time, always have the right spaces from each other and they have the design that Allah swt wanted them to be, and they never said, "No" and Allah swt wants us, as He said in Holy Qur'an, wa laqad karamna bani Adam. "We have honored human beings," and He wants us to understand what is good and rewards us what we are doing good.
The Prophet (s) related in an authentic Hadith from Muslim that Ayesha (r), she said that the Prophet (s) said...look, how Islam did not honor women, where we are learning from them in many ways what the Prophet (s) was saying? So this is Sayyidah Ayesha (r), wife of the Prophet (s) telling us what he said to her and she is spreading that knowledge and people till today are doing what she told them, spreading that knowledge. So she passed that knowledge with accuracy to the Sahabah (a) after the Prophet left this world.
وعن عائشة رضى الله عنها ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : انه خلق كل انسان من بنى آدم على ستين وثلاث مائة مفصل 360 فمن كبر الله وحمد الله وهلل الله وسبح الله واستغفره وعزل حجرا عن طريق الناس او شوكة او عظما عن طريق الناس وأمر بمعروف او نهى عن منكر عدد تلك الستين والثلاث مائة السلامى فانه يمشى يومئذ وقد زحزح نفسه عن النار
Prophet (s) said, "Human beings have been created, everyone of bani Adam, Allah swt gave him 360 joints" - pressure points, like today they do acupuncture and they say there are 360 or 366 points. Sayyidina Muhammad (s) 1400 years ago said that Allah swt put in human being 360 pressure points. Any point you press on it has to have an effect on the body and this kind of knowledge if we call it human being's physical knowledge of the body, or medical knowledge of the body, not everyone can do that, but only few can do that as they learnt it.
But Prophet (s) indicated or said there is such knowledge, that is why said that famous Hadith, that everyone to today mention it:اطلب العلم و لو في الصين "atlub al-`ilm wa law fi 's-seen - Seek knowledge even if it is in China." That kind of acupuncture came from China where the Prophet (s) is saying go to China and learn it. Not only that but many others. That is a beautiful Hadith showing that Chinese have that talent as this beautiful person Simon has that talent and another lady visiting has that talent.
So to make it very short and very quick he said, "There are these 360 different mafsal, joints or pressure points." If you touch them physically you relieve the body but on the other side to open them in order that, as the physical body has 360 joints, the spiritual body, the soul has 360 points that need to be checked and need to be used. Just as we accept a physical guide to do acupuncture on these points, we must accept a spiritual guide to move or put pressure on these spiritual pressure points. The Prophet (s) gave you a very simple equations in order be able to get spiritual benefit from these pressure points. You press these points on body you must press on them to relieve them and to relieve yourself spiritually, when you relieve from difficulty you relieve yourself. He said in order.....??
So we go to doctors and they put their needles or press on them and that treats you and then it comes back but when you treat the spiritual pressure points you will relieve that problem in a way that you won't need those acupuncture people. So the Prophet (s) said, to move that and someone who uses what the Prophet (s) said to activate the 360 points, when evening comes he will remove himself from Hellfire and that means removed from difficulties in dunya and in akhirah. So these 360 points very important to take away anger, malice, hate envy and aggression. Take all these away. When you become a subtle person you will be happy person and you will find your illnesses solved also, you render it to Allah swt. You are not worrying too much anymore as you are submitting to Allah swt. Look yesterday, something happened that a child was eating on a chair and has taweez on her neck and no one knows how that young girl, that taweez, she fell from chair and that taweez, wrapped on the wood of chair and from the neck as if she was hanged up but because of the purity of that child and innocence Allah swt saved her, "O fire be cool on Ibrahim."
Even you are in fire, when Allah swt wants you to feel cool breeze you will feel it by following the way of Prophet (s). So for barakah of Ramadan and barakah of that iftaar nothing happened to that child. So if we follow what Prophet (s) taught us we will leave difficulties. He said, "man kabbar Allah," like you say, Allahu Akbar and not like the one who shouts Allahu Akbar on a speaker. This is bid'ah rendered on them as this was never done in time of Prophet (s).
When Qur'an is being read, everyone like dead person. They don't say Allahu Akbar or Subhanallah. When they say that they mock them, they tell them it is bid'ah but it is not bid'ah for them in their conference when they stand up and say Allahu Akbar, takbeer. Never we heard that before, that is bid'ah. Why not takbeer when reading Qur'an? Why not takbeer when reading Hadith or reciting Hadith? Man kabbar Allah.
That means whoever makes Allah swt the Greatest, pride and honor all comes from you, and He said, "Wa Hammad-Allah," and be thankful to Allah swt, as He said, "Who thanks Allah, Allah swt increases him," whoever makes tahlil and Sabbahallah and Wastaghfarallah and asks forgiveness of Allah swt. So after saying, "You are the Greatest, You are Lord of Heavens and earth and thank You for creating us and we have to worship You and thank You and glorify You and we have to make istighfaar for You." And when you do all that in a manner of 360 times a day, you say Allahu Akbar, Alhamdulillah,labaykAllahumma labayk,Subhanallah and Istaaghfirullah, that means you recite each one 72 times then you recite that 360 and you will not come to the evening of that day except that you will be removed from anything that you have done of badness and take you from Hellfire and take you to Paradise.
Man kabbar Allah wa hamadAllah wa halala lillahi wa sabahAllah wa’staghfarahu wa `azalhajar `ani 't-tareeq, move stone from street... today you can't go on highway and move stone. It means if you see someone needs help you help. Removing stone help people not to break arm or legs. If you see branch on road or small stone, then you remove from the way of people or you call people to goodness. You see someone doing wrong and you know him, you might advise him. Not like those people who go on streets and tell people "you are doing wrong" like Witnesses going from door to door, then someone got fed up and changed his name to George, then they press the doorbell button and said, "George come to prayer." Not like these groups in Islam that call people by name, "Come to pray."
So if you call these by number of pressure points as mentioned in first of Hadith, that night, when comes Maghrib time Allah swt will take him away from punishment and Hellfire. So in dunya there are lot of punishments and so if you do these you will avoid these difficulties. That is why many people recite many recitations of the Prophet (s) and if you recite Hasbunallahwani`mal-wakeel and Subhanallahwabi-hamdihi Subhanallahal-`adheem, istaghfirullah - that means saying it one time Allah swt will give a house in Paradise. That is for one time reciting it and one hadith of Abu Hurayrah, Man kabbar Allah wa hamadAllah wa halala lillahi wa sabahAllah wa’staghfarahu wa `azal hajar `ani 't-tareeqBukhari and Muslim.
Prophet (s) said, whoever goes to the masjid either walking or came by car, however you came, by car, evening you went and morning went, then Allah swt will give him a nuzul, a place to settle whenever he goes and comes. Allah swt will give him new place, that means in Allah's daily Heavenly day and night Allah swt will give you a better and higher one than the one He gave you before. We can say palace or castle in Heaven, qasrah filjannah.
May Allah swt open for us His Heavens and keep us in company of the Prophet (s), ma` alladheenaana`maAllahu `alayhim min an-nabiyyeenwa 's-siddiqeen wa 'sh-shuhadaa'i wa 's-saaliheen, wa hasuna ulaa'ika rafeeqa,
