12 March 2013 Washington DC Metro Area

Morning Suhbah at Private Residence

A`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytaani 'r-rajeem. Bismillahi 'r-Rahmaani 'r-Raheem.

Nawaytu 'l-arba`een, nawaytu 'l-`itikaaf, nawaytu 'l-khalwah, nawaytu 'l-`uzlah,

nawaytu 'r-riyaadah, nawaytu 's-sulook, lillahi ta`alaa fee haadha 'l-masjid.

أَطِيعُواْ اللّهَ وَأَطِيعُواْ الرَّسُولَ وَأُوْلِي الأَمْرِ مِنكُمْ

Atee`oollaha wa atee`oo 'r-Rasoola wa ooli 'l-amri minkum.

Obey Allah, obey the Prophet, and obey those in authority among you. (Surat an-Nisa, 4:59)

(Suhbah in progress.)

(...) Everyone, no. Grandshaykh and Mawlana Shaykh Nazim (q) don’t ask anyone. They ask when an order comes for them from Prophet (s) and otherwise they don’t. Grandshaykh (q) said to me while I was sitting with him, as I mentioned in the beginning, “I am asking only from two people because I do not want my order to fall on the floor.” And who are these two people? Her (Hajjah Naziha’s) father, Mawlana Shaykh Nazim (q) and Shaykh Hussain (q). Grandshaykh (q) said to them, “I need 1,000 from you and 1,000 from you.” He did not ask us, even though I would have brought it. He asked Mawlana Shaykh Nazim (q) and Mawlana Shaykh Hussain (a) because he knows they have no doubts, as doubts will kill you. When they brought it to Grandshaykh (q), he took it and gave it to someone who was going to get married. Some people may give, but they might have doubts and the doubts will kill you.

So Grandshaykh (q) did not ask from people who had doubts. You do not know what kind of problem he is carrying from you or what kind of disaster he is averting or stopping from happening to you. Also, you do not know what kind of benefit you are getting in dunya and Akhirah that is correct. That is why awliyaullah do not ask except from certain people whom they know have no doubt. But I am not asking for you (a mureed), it is Mawlana Shaykh. Awliya ask for certain reasons and Allah knows what those reasons are.

Fatihah.
