Madad ul Haqq
Be Rabbani, Race to the state of Ihsan
We are asking support from our masters in every breath that is coming and leaving. Without their guidance we can not reach any reality. As the recent events in the past week have unfolded, the messages coming from our masters have been astonishing to the listeners and viewers. It leaves one in such awe but such is the caliber of such high rank saints. The importance of following everything they speak becomes clear in these situations. Not only what they say but whom they have authorized to speak on their behalf. At our level, we are in need of an explanation to the realities our Masters are conveying to us.
Sultan al-Awliya Mawlana Shaykh Nazim al-Haqqani, 20 October 2010, “you must be Rabbani, I am trying to be Rabbani (those who establish lordly worship)’. The message from this talk was clear to cancel anything that divides people and unite them under the flag of ‘Rabbani’. The following day Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani explained on the meaning of Sultan al Awliya’s talk.
Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, 21 October 2010 Lefke,Cyprus S. Jibreel (a) asked Prophet (saws) the three levels of Islam. These three levels were explained briefly in the previous article from a talk given by Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi in Cyprus
The first level is Islam that includes the five pillars of Islam: Saying the Shahada, praying, fasting, charity, and pilgrimage. They are related to the physical state, an action one has to perform or a movement that occurs. The second level is Iman (faith) that includes belief in God, all prophets, their books, all angels, and the divine decree. This level is to believe in all the unseen, you cannot physically see but believe in their existence and the truth. Third level is Ihsan, the level of moral excellence. Mawlana Shaykh Hisham explained on this in the same talk mentioned earlier. "To worship Allah as if you are seeing Him.” It means Rabbaaniyoon that is the era of now opening that maqaam on every mureed (student) that was previously closed. You have to achieve it; you have to run for it!”
In the first chapter we were listening and watching Sultan al Awliya’s talks everyday. It was a daily occurrence that we had become accustomed to. We even became as comfortable as to miss them because we can watch tomorrow or another time. We learn the value of something when it is taken away. When the news came last week that talks would be ended, we were worried and begged for more. Mawlana is teaching us that first level is finished. I want you to progress so I will close all the faculties of the physicality for hearing and seeing. He wants us to run to the next level of belief. You have been given instructions from the first level now applying them to achieve the second. He indicated the days are so close for the last days. It is as if they are compressing all the steps of self purification to quickly drop this duniya from our heart and race toward the state of Ihsan.
The second chapter is to believe everything that Sultan al Awliya has been speaking. Close your eyes from this duniya and prepare for the difficulties that are coming. Make your self available to be of service to these masters and ultimately to the seal of messengers (saws). What you sacrifice now will only benefit you in the future. Believe they are ever present in our life. We were accustomed to hearing his message everyday. Has that message stopped? It is to say you went to visit theNiagara Falls
The third chapter is to reach the state if Ihsan. Be Rabbaniyoon. To be with S. Mehdi (as). The warnings that Sultan al Awliya has been giving to us for the past year and half are to strengthen our faith. Nothing will save us but our belief from what lies ahead of us. Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi has been teaching us it is time to be nothing. What does that mean? It means empty our hearts from love of this world and fill our hearts with love of Awliya and Prophet (saws). Humiliate our ego and take off the dress of selfishness and put on the dress of power of our beloved Master. Mawlana Shaykh Hisham explained how we can achieve the state of Ihsan. " That’s why Prophet (s) said:
To think or to meditate for one hour, it will be rewarded as if you worshipped for 70 years.
It means, "O Muslims! O Mureeds, followers of Mawlana Shaykh Nazim (q)! We have to think, to audit ourselves daily on what we have done, if not for one hour at least for five minutes. Don’t say, “I did this good and that good," no. Sayyidina Adam (a) said, "What is good is from Allah, what is bad is from us." Check what is bad and say, “Yaa Rabbee! Forgive me for that.” Allah will be happy because you remembered your mistakes."
Allah knows best what those chapters will bring in the coming days. But if we give a little time to think on what is constantly coming from our Masters. It will give us an understanding and tools to be in the ship of safety. Mawlana speaks because of the great love he has for his followers and humanity. All it requires from us is to increase that fire of love in our heart and burn all the badness in us and all around us.
