A'udhu billah mina 'sh-shaytani 'r-rajeem Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem Nawaytu 'l-arba'een, nawaytu'l-'itikaaf, nawaytu'l-khalwah, nawaytu'l-'uzlah, nawaytu'l-riyaada, nawaytu's-salook, lillahi ta'ala al-`azheem fee hadha'l-masjid
Alhamdulillah rabbil-`alameen was-salaat was-salaam `ala ashraf al-mursaleen wa `alaa aalihi wa sahbihi ajma`een. Allahumma salli `alaa sayyidinaa Muhammadini 'l-faatihi limaa ughliq, wa 'l-khaatimi limaa sabaq, naasiri 'l-haqqi bi 'l-haqq, wa 'l-haadi ilaa siraatika 'l-mustaqeem, wa `alaa aalihi haqqa qadrihi wa miqdaarihi 'l-`azheem.
Glory be to the One who does no die. All of us are on the way to death. wa inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji`oon, and.. may Allah grant us to be carried to the blessed grave of Sayyidina Muhammad (saw). After our death, we hope that Allah swt will move us through his angels from where we have been buried to be near the Prophet (saw) is buried in dunya, in barzakh and in akhira.
We have to take signs and we have to learn lessons from what happened around us.
Today I was coming to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim qs and they said someone died. And who was that one? Who never think that he will die? He is a pious person, everyone thinks he is going to live forever. And everyone wishes to live forever. But no one is going to live forever. So this person who might feel that he is the strong one the powerful one, never Angel of Death can come to him.
Wa laa tadree nafsin bi ayyi ardin tamoot. No one knows where he or she is going to be buried. and this is a big responsibility and you don't know who is going to pray on you salat aljanaza. but from rahmatillah, wherever you dis, Allah swt arranges angels that Grandshaykh Abdullah Faiz ad-Daghestani qs, may Allah bless his soul, was always asking,"Yaa Rabbee, for my followers, grant them, wherever they die, to be moved to Damascus, Sham and wherever the die angels pray on them salat al-Janaza and carry that janaza to Jabal Qasiyoun or the family of the Prophet (saw) where they are buried in Sham, all Naqshbandis have been moved there.
Sayyidina 'Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (q) is in Baghdad, but in every part of the world, though he is in Baghdad, but in every part of the world there are Qadiri followers. how does that nur reach them. The light of Sayyidina 'Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (q) is sent from him to all his mureeds.
And similar in NaqshbandI order, as the Qadiri Order. How you see these NaqshbandI followers in the Far East and in every part of the world, if that light is not moving, how you find these Naqshband from indonesia. I will tell you a story you will be amazed. There are 95 Naqshbandi centers in Indonesia, I spoke with Gibril Haddad there are 135 centers, correct your information.
The story was I was supposed to go with previous vice president to viisit Aceh. It was 25th December, how many years ago, in 2004. I was supposed to go with im in his airplane to Aceh as there was problem between the goverment and separatists. And before we were going, he said, we were invited to a wedding, remember the wedding of Budi, and I was sitting at the table with the Vice President of Indonesia and he received a call, this was before 25th December.
There was a negotiation going on between separatists and goverment in Sweden. And a phone call came they refused to sign, there was a problem. And they refused to sign. He told me immediately there is this problem. And I told him tell him, it is coming to my heart from Mawlana Shaykh Nazim qs to say this, that recite seven times Surat Yaseen and insha-Allah you will, that will work. Immeditaely he called his people in Sweden and told them stop everything and recite 7 Yaseen. Five minutes later the separatists came and signed the agreement.
Two days later or 3 days later, he was supposed to go to Aceh and wants me to join him. I said, no I cannot join you, I am going to Singapore. He said, no, no, you cannot go, I will take your passport. And he said if you are not going, I am not going, and he canceled his trip. I went to Singapore and he stayed home. And that day the tsunami hit Aceh.
I said Mawlana Shaykh Nazim qs doesn't allow me to go to Aceh, with you, you go if you want. He said, no you don't go, I don't go. I said I am going to Singapore, my heart from Mawlana rejects to go there. And why I brought that story. I never brought that story but the reflection of himaya reach even the Far East. The power of awliyaullah like Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Adil al-Haqqani Sultan al-Awliya, can reach far away, he is not just sitting here but his power and his connection to each mureed which power he is taking from the Prophet (saw), he can reach everyone, all awliyaullah there is no limitation on their power.
So Mawlana saved me. First he sent to tell me through my heart to tell him to recite Surah Yaseen. You believe he told his whole delegation to leave what they are doing and come together and sit and recite 7 Surah Yaseen. That is not easy for a Vice President to sit and listen to a nobody. And Mawlana Shaykh Nazim qs stopped the war, and he saved me from tsunami, and he is in presence of the Prophet (saw), and Allah honored them, the Prophet (saw) honored them. When they say something Allah honores them and the Prophet (s) honors them.
There was one place in Aceh where they were doing Naqshbandi Dhikr and there is one person who is representing Mawlana Shaykh Nazim qs, and the whole city is under water the one everyone saw on TV, that masjid is not underwater, and that is the one that they are doing NaqshbandI Dhikr. [Allahu akbar]
You saw that Masjid (Baitur Rahman) on TV? Yes the wooden one [Masjid Bayt ar-Rahman]. Because they were doing Naqshbandi dhikr there and mentioning the name of the Prophet (saw) and the silsila of Naqshbandi and that structure is there and the Naqshbandis there none of them died. Did you know that? We began dhikr in that masjid in Aceh. Subhanallah. Awliyaullah how far their power reaches. This is a reflection of their power. You see them here, but how many different reflections they send everywhere. We have to take ibra from their power.
So we begin that lecture with mention of the person who thinks he will never die.
No one can think that? No that person thinks so. Everyone of you know him, and you are all in need of him. The gravedigger and put the body inside and he is outside. hafar al-quboor. The grave digger thinks he is not going to die. This is an example for us. Not he is bad person, no he is helping people, but you can take a sign. So I asked how old is he? I thought he might be 80, 90, 70. Because always the gravedigger is that age. They said no he is 45. And he has 2 graves to dig and he died. Today he died. Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji`oon.
So everything goes back to Allah. And the Prophet (saw) said, adnoo shayaateenakum. We explain this tomorrow.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfeeq bi hurmati 'l-Fatiha.
