On the means of beholding the Prophet in a Dream [May the Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Him]



https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/282679_10150235577920334_672380333_7952943_1640316_n.jpg
SLEEP THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD (MAY ALLAH BLESS HIM AND GRANT HIM PEACE) tells us, is the twin brother of death. Yet, he informs us that in the last days, a believers dream will hardly prove false," and that "good dreams are the believer's early glad tidings in this life." What glad tiding then, is better than beholding in one's dream the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)?

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/429196_10150541449805334_672380333_9488888_326603178_n.jpg

This unique collection, taken from Imam Yusuf al-Nabahani's monumental Sa'adat al-darayn fi al-salat 'ala Sayyid al-kawnayn (Felicity in the Two Abodes Through Prayers upon the Master of the Two Realms – may Allah bless him and grant him peace), details forty tried and true methods for seeing the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) in a dream. Gleaned from the works of the early and later  spiritual masters, this collection is a veritable treasury of Gnostic expressions of prophetic love and longing. Each supplication is presented in its original Arabic along with its translation and transliteration.

Imam Yusuf b. Isma'il al-Nabahani (1265–1350 ah), hadith scholar, Sufi, jurist, judge, and biographer, was born in Beirut, Lebanon. A prolific author, al-Nabahani left behind a staggering collection of works in hadith, fiqh, theology, and most famously, poetry and prose in praise of our master Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace). Al-Nabahani was a paragon of prophetic love ('ishq) and his works continue to exercise a profound influence on popular Muslim spirituality.

Whoever beholds the Chosen One (al-Mustafa) in a dream shall receive a good end at death (Husn al-khatima); he shall gain the Prophet's (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) Intercession and win unto Paradise; Allah will forgive him and his parents (if they were Muslims); it will be as if he completed the Quran twelve times; the pangs of death will be made easy for him to bear; the torment of the grave shall be removed from him; he will enjoy security from the terrors of the Day of Standing; and with Allah's subtle kindness and generosity, all of his needs in this life and the Next will be fulfilled.

Duties of Children towards Deceased Parents

Duties of Children towards Deceased Parents
by AlaHadrat Imam Ahmad Rida Khan al-Baraylawi Alaihir raHmah

 
A question was asked to the Great Mujaddid AlaHadrat Ash-Shah Imam Ahmad Rida Khan al-Qadiri (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu) regarding the Duties of Children towards deceased Parents... Over which HE stated the following points:


1. The first and foremost duty of the children after the death of the parent is that he should immediately arrange and take part in Ghusl, Salat al-Janaza (Funeral Prayer) and Burial which should be done in accordance with the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam, and hope for them to receive the Mercy of Almighty Allah.

2. He should always make Dua and Istighfar for them at all times and never be unconscious about it.

3. He should give out Sadaqah and Khayrat (Charity) and always send the rewards of good deeds (Aa'mal-e-Sawleh) to them in accordance to his personal capacity. When performing Salah and keeping Fast (Roza), do likewise for them. Actually, for any good deed performed, the Sawab should be forwarded to them and all deceased Muslims and this will not affect the benefits one will receive, in any way. On the contrary, the Sawab of such acts will be beneficial to himself, his parents and all the deceased of the Ummah.

4. If the parents left behind any kind of debts or credits it should be paid in full immediately from one's personal wealth, which should be regarded as blessings of this Duniya and Aakhirah. If you cannot afford to pay, assistance should be taken from the family, close friends or charitable Muslims.


5. If he has not performed Hajj, firstly, try to perform his Hajj-e-Badal for him personally, or send someone as a representative to do so. If he has any previous Zakah to be paid, do so immediately. If he has any Qada of Salat or Roza (Fasting) perform the Kaffarah for him. The children should, in all aspects, try their best to execute the duties of their parents which were left undone.

6. Whatever desires and wishes were made by the parent should be carried out even though it may displease you and the Shariah does not compel you to. For example, if he has made a Wasiyat (Wish) to give half of his wealth or belongings to a dear friend, non-inheritor or total outsider, even though in accordance to the Law of the Shariah, one-third of the wealth or belongings cannot be given to anyone without the consent of the heirs, it is best for the heirs to execute the Wasiyat and priority to the wishes and happiness of the deceased.

7. If he has taken an oath, carry it out after his death.If the parents had sworn an oath that their child must not do a certain thing or not meet with a certain person or must not go to a certain place, it must not be discarded after the death, saying :"Well, they are not alive so I can do certain things." Wrong! One should abide by it as he did while they were alive, as long as it does not conflict with the Shariah.

8. Visit their graves every Friday and recite Surah Yaseen at the graveside loudly and pass the Thawab of recitation to them. While travelling, never pass their graves without greeting and performing Fatiha.


9. As long as you live, be kind to their relatives.

10. Maintain friendship and respect for all their relatives.

11. Never, at any time, insult anyone's parents, so that they may not insult yours.

12. The most difficult duty is never to commit any sin and inflict harm to them in their graves. All deeds of the children are taken to their parents in the grave. On seeing the good deeds they are very pleased and their faces glitter with happiness. On the contrary, if they see the bad deeds or sins, they become very sad.


O! Merciful and Most Forgiving Allah! The Almighty and All Powerful! On behalf of your most Beloved Prophet, Mercy of the Universe (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam), protect us from sins and grant us the guidance and courage to always do good. Fill the graves of our elders and deceased with Light and happiness. O Allah! You are the All Powerful, we are the weak. You are the Wealthy and we are the poor. Protect us... Aameen!!

What is Imaan-e-Kaamil - [Perfect Imaan] - ??

What is Imaan-e-Kaamil  Perfect Imaan  ??

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/167199_484767935333_672380333_6555302_3237838_n.jpg

All praise is to Allah, the Lord Of The Creation. The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Owner of the Day of Recompense. Who blessed us being the Ummah of His Beloved Rasool Sallallaho Alaihi wa Sallam. Who sanctified our hearts with the Love and Affection towards His Beloved Rasool Sallallaho Alaihi wa Sallam. Who blessed us with the most precious treasure of Iman (Faith). Countless Salutations, Peace and Blessings be upon the Cream of the Creation... Mercy for all Worlds... Seal of the Prophets Sayyiduna wa Maulana MuHammadur RasoolALLAH Sallallaho Alaihi wa Sallam, His Blessed Parents, His entire Family, His Progeny, His Companions and all those who Follow Him!!

In the present era, It is really being felt that people must get aware of the Value of Iman and to know what Iman really is? Especially when the Thieves and Robbers of Iman are everywhere putting the garb (attire) of the Scholars of Islam, Aalim, Mufti, Hafiz, Teacher, Imam, Doctor, Professor etc. Who are continuously cropping the deviations and confusions in the minds of a common Muslims who in their ignorance get deceived by the Insolent and Corrupt Creeds. May ALLAH Guide us on the Straight Path!

Following are Golden Words by the Great Mujaddid AlaHadrat Ash-Shah Imam Ahmad Rida Khan al-Qadiri that will surely help us to understand the True meaning of Iman inshaALLAH!


https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/166494_483567510333_672380333_6541061_5816889_n.jpg

What is Imaan?

Iman is to accept every word of Sayyiduna RasoolAllah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam as absolute and nothing else but truth and to testify whole-heartedly the reality and truth of Sayyiduna Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam.

One who observes the above would be called a Muslim, that is, if any of his words, actions or conditions does not reject, insult or falsify Almighty Allah and His Rasool SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam. His relationship with Almighty Allah and His Rasool SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam must be above all other relationships. He must love and respect all those who are the beloved of Almighty Allah and His Rasool SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam even though that person may be his enemy. He must disrespect and hate all those who disrespect and hate Almighty Allah and His Rasool SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam even if that person may be his beloved son. Whatever he gives should be for Almighty Allah and whatever he abstains from must be for Almighty Allah. Such a persons Iman is known as "Kamil" or "Complete".

Sayyiduna RasoolAllah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam states:


من أحب لله وأبغض لله وأعطى لله ومنع لله فقد استكمل الإيمان
"One who loves for Allah, hates anyone because of Allah, spends for Allah and holds back for Allah, then, indeed, he has completed his Iman." [Sunan Abi Dawood, Vol 2, Page 632 - Hadith 4681]

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/24757_348514620333_672380333_4233883_7781302_n.jpg

The Value of Iman

Until such a time a person does not love and respect the exalted Nabi SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, even though that person worships all his life, his worship is fruitless and rejected. Numerous Jogees, Monks and Hermits take to seclusion and spend their lives in the Remembrance of Almighty Allah. Some of them even indulge in the Zikr of "La ilaha illal lah" (There is no god but Allah), but they do not respect and love Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam. What benefit is such Ibadah? Almighty Allah states in the Holy Quran:


وقدمنا الى ما عملوا من عمل فجعلناه هباء منثورا
"And We turned all the deeds they had performed into scattered floating specks of dust." [Furqan 25:23] 

In another verse concerning such worshipers, Almighty Allah states:


عاملة ناصبة ۔ تصلى نارا حامية
"Laboring, striving hard. (Yet) Going into the blazing fire." [Ghashiyah 88:3/4]

Say, O Muslims! Does the dependence of Iman, serenity, survival and acceptance of deeds depends on the love and respect for the glorious Prophet of Allah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam or not? Say "YES" and certainly, YES!


https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/427994_10150548183665334_672380333_9505364_1794642292_n.jpg

The Validity of Iman on Two Important Points

(A) Respect for Sayyiduna Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, and
(B) To love him above all creation within the universe.

The correct method to put this to test is to see that all those whom you love and respect, for example, Father, Teacher, Children, Brother, Murshid, Molvi, Mufti, Hafiz, Lecturer, Imam, or Friends, etc., if they at any time show the slightest disrespect for the Station of Sayyiduna Muhammadur Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, then there must not remain an atom of love and respect for that person in your heart. Such an insolent person should be totally severed from family and community. His name should cause great discomfort to you. His knowledge or status should be absolutely rejected and discarded. After all, your respect and connection with him was due to his respect for Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam. Now that he insults the very reason of respect what more is left to have any reasons to respect such an audacious person.

On the other hand, if you accepted or observed silence to his insult to Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, kept good friends with him, did not regard him as wretched, shameless and mean-spirited and liked his condemnation, the, by Allah, with great justice, analyze where do you stand in the test of Iman!


https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/s720x720/316205_10150293673245334_672380333_8489406_364961929_n.jpg

Dear Muslims! Is it possible that the heart that contains the love and honour of the master of the universe, Sayyiduna Muhammad SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, could ever tolerate insults to him, though it may be his Ustaz, Murshid or father? Would the heart that extremely loves the Holy Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam above all creation, ever respect or love one who belittles the unique and faultless Prophet of Allah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, even though it may be his own child or intimate friend?

Brothers and Sisters in Islam! The reason for showing respect to a learned scholar or Alim is that he is a Waris (Inheritor) to the Knowledge of Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam. Is that person the Waris of Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam or is that person a Shaitan who goes astray from the path of righteousness? In the former, his respect was the respect of Sayyiduna Rasoolullah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, and, in the latter, his respect was for Shaitan. This is the case when an alim goes astray, like the Ulema of un-Islamic belief. Then, what can be said about that person who commits Kufr? To regard such a person as Alim-e-Deen is Kufr itself!

A million regrets on him who claims to be a Muslim but respects and regards his Ustaz greater than Almighty Allah and His Rasool SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam. O Allah! With the true respect and mercy of your beloved Habeeb SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam, grant us true Iman. Ameen!

Steadfastness in Belief

Salvation depends on the fact that every single belief of the Ahle Sunnah Wa Jamah be so firm that one will remain firm even is the sky and the earth vanishes. One must have great fear for his belief at all times. The Ulama of Islam state that:


"One who does not fear that his Iman may be taken away, would be stripped of his Iman at the time of death."

Sayyiduna Umar Faruq (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu) states:


"If a voice calls out from the sky that all the people of the earth are forgiven but one, I would fear that the one would be me, and if the voice calls out that all the people on earth are dwellers of Hell but one, I will hope that the one be me."

The status of "Khouf" (Fear) and "Raja" (Hope) must have a balance as displayed by Sayyiduna Umar Faruq (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu).

All good is from Allah Ta'ala whereas mistakes are from this humble speck. May Allah Ta'ala Bless all readers, bringing you all closer to Him and His Rasul SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam. May He accept our humble efforts and grant us the capacity to be good and do good. May we live in this World with extreme protection of Iman and leave this world having our Iman safe and sound. May ALLAH keep us away from the tricks and hypocrisy of hypocrites; May ALLAH guide us to the path of those whom HE have favored. Keep us safe and away from those who have earned HIS anger and of those who have gone astray... Aameen!!

21st Rabi' al Awwal | Shaykh al-Muhaqqiq 'Ala al-Itlaaq Shah Abd al-Haqq Muhaddith Dehlvi Alaihir raHmah [URDU]

شیخ محقق علی الاطلاق حضرت شاہ عبد الحق محدث دہلوی رضی اللہ تعالی عنہ بن سیف الدین بن سعد اللہ بن شیخ فیروز بن ملک موسی بن ملک معز الدین بن آغا محمد ترک بخاری کی ولادت ماہ محرم ۹۵۸ھ /۱۵۵۱ء کو دہلی میں ہوئی ۔یہ سلیم شاہ سوری کا زمانہ تھا ، مہدوی تحریک اس وقت پورے عروج پر تھی جسکے بانی سید محمد جونپوری تھے ۔ شیخ کی ابتدائی تعلیم وتربیت خود والد ماجد کی آغوش ہی میں ہوئی ۔والد ماجد نے انکو بعض ایسی ہدایتیں کی تھیں جس پر آپ تمام عمر عمل پیرا رہے ، قرآن کریم کی تعلیم سے لیکر کافیہ تک والد ماجد ہی سے پڑھا۔

شیخ سیف الدین اپنے بیٹے کی تعلیم خود اپنی نگرانی میں مکمل کرانے کیلئے بے چین رہتے تھے ، انکی تمنا تھی کہ وہ اپنے جگر گوشہ کے سینہ میں وہ تمام علوم منتقل کر دیں جو انہوں نے عمر بھر کے ریاض سے حاصل کئے تھے ، لیکن انکی پیرانہ سالی کا زمانہ تھا ، اس لئے سخت مجبور بھی تھے کبھی کتابوں کا شمار کرتے اور حسرت کے ساتھ کہتے کہ یہ اور پڑ ھالو ں ۔پھر فرماتے ۔

مجھے بڑ ی خوشی ہوتی ہے جس وقت یہ تصور کرتا ہوں کہ اللہ تعالیٰ تجھ کو اس کمال تک پہونچادے جو میں نے خیال کیا ہے ۔

حضرت شخ رحمة اللہ تعالیٰ علیہ نے صر ف تین ماہ میں پورا قرآن پاک مکمل قواعد کے ساتھ اپنے والد ماجد سے پڑھ لیا۔ اورایک ماہ میں کتابت کی قدرت اور انشاء کا سلیقہ حاصل ہو گیا اٹھارہ سال کی عمر میں آپ نے تمام علوم عقلیہ اور نقلیہ اپنے والد ماجد سے حاصل کر لیے ۔اس دوران آپ نے جید علماء کرام سے بھی اکتساب علم کیا ۔

شیخ محدث خود بے حد ذہین تھے ، طلب علم کا سچا جذبہ تھا ، بارہ تیرہ برس کی عمر میں شرح شمسیہ اورشرح عقائد پڑ ھ لی اور پندرہ برس کی عمر ہو گی ، کہ مختصر ومطول سے فارغ ہوئے ، اٹھا رہ برس کی عمر میں علوم عقلیہ ونقلیہ کا کوئی گوشہ ایسا نہ تھا جسکی سیر نہ کر چکے ہوں ۔

عربی میں کامل دستگاہ اور علم کلام ومنطق پر پورا عبور حاصل کرنے کے بعد شیخ محدث نے دانشمندان ماوراء النہر سے اکتساب کیا ۔شیخ نے ان بزرگوں کے نام نہیں بتائے ، بہرحال ان علوم کے حصول میں بھی انکی مشغولیت اور انہماک کا یہ عالم رہا کہ رات ودن کے کسی حصہ میں فرصت نہ ملتی تھی ۔

شیخ نے پاکئی عقل وخرد کے ساتھ ساتھ عفت قلب ونگاہ کا بھی پوراپورا خیال رکھا ، بچپن سے انکو عبادت وریاضت میں دلچسپی تھی ، انکے والد ماجد نے ہدایت کی تھی ۔

ملائے خشک ونا ہموار نباشی

چنانچہ عمر بھر انکے ایک ہاتھ میں جام شریعت رہا اور دوسرے میں سندان عشق ۔والد ماجد نے ان میں عشق حقیقی کے وہ جذبات پھونک دیئے تھے جو آخر عمر تک انکے قلب وجگر کو گرماتے رہے ۔

اس زمانہ میں شیخ محدث کو علماء ومشائخ کی صحبت میں بیٹھنے اور مستفید ہونے کا بڑ ا شوق تھا ، اپنے مذہبی جذبات اور خلوص نیت کے باعث وہ ان بزرگوں کے لطف وکرم کا مرکز بن جاتے تھے ۔

شیخ اسحاق متوفی ۹۸۹ھ سہروردیہ سلسلہ کے مشہور بزرگ تھے اور ملتان سے دہلی سکونت اختیار کر لی تھی ، اکثر اوقات خاموش رہتے لیکن جب شیخ انکی خدمت میں حاضر ہوتے تو بے حد التفات و کرم فرماتے ۔

شیخ نے تکمیل علم کے بعد ہندوستان کیوں چھوڑا اسکی داستان طویل ہے ، مختصر یہ کہ اپ کچھ عرصہ فتح پور سیکری میں رہے ، وہاں اکبر کے درباریوں نے آپکی قدر بھی کی لیکن حالات کی تبدیلی نے یوں کروٹ لی کہ اکبر نے دین الہی کا فتنہ کھڑا کر دیا۔ ابو الفضل اور فیضی نے اس دینی انتشار کی رہبری کی ، یہ دیکھ کر آپکی طبیعت گھبرا گئی ، ان حالات میں ترک وطن کے سوا کوئی چارہ نہ تھا ، لہذا آپ نے غیرت دینی سے مجبور ہوکر حجاز کی راہ لی ۔

۹۹۶ھ میں جبکہ شیخ کی عمر اڑ تیس سال تھی وہ حجاز کی طرف روانہ ہوگئے ۔وہاں پہونچ کر آپ نے تقریباً تین سال کا زمانہ شیخ عبدالوہاب متقی کی خدمت میں گذرا ۔انکی صحبت نے سونے پر سہاگے کا کام کیا ، شیخ نے علم کی تکمیل کرائی اور احسان وسلوک کی را ہوں سے آشنا کیا ۔

شیخ عبدالوہاب متقی نے آپکو مشکوة کا درس دینا شروع کیا ، درمیان میں مدینہ طیبہ کی حاضری کا شرف بھی حاصل ہوا اور پھر تین سال کی مدت میں مشکوة کا درس مکمل ہوا ۔

اسکے بعد آداب ذکر ، تقلیل طعام وغیرہ کی تعلیم دی اور تصوف کی کچھ کتابیں پڑ ھائیں ۔ پھر حرم شریف کے ایک حجرہ میں ریاضت کیلئے بٹھادیا ۔شیخ عبدالوہاب متقی نے اس زمانہ میں انکی طرف خاص توجہ کی ۔ ان کا یہ دستور تھا کہ ہر جمعہ کو حرم شریف میں حاضر ہوا کرتے تھے ۔ جب یہاں آتے تو شیخ عبدالحق سے بھی ملتے اور انکی عبادت وریاضت کی نگرانی فرماتے ۔

فقہ حنفی کے متعلق شیخ محدث کے خیالات قیام حجاز کے دوران بدل گئے تھے اور وہ شافعی مذہب اختیار کرنے کا ارادہ رکھتے تھے ، شیخ عبدالوہاب کو اس کا علم ہوا تو مناقب امام اعظم پر ایسا پرتاثیر خطبہ ارشاد فرمایا کہ شیخ محدث کے خیالات بدل گئے اور فقہ حنفی کی عظمت ان کے دل میں جاگزیں ہوگئی ۔حدیث ، تصوف فقہ حنفی اور حقوق العباد کی اعلی تعلیم در حقیقت شیخ عبدالوہاب متقی کے قدموں میں حاصل کی ۔

علم وعمل کی سب وادیوں کی سیر کرنے کے بعد شیخ عبدالوہاب متقی نے شیخ عبدالحق محدث دہلوی کو ہندوستان واپس جانے کی ہدایت کی اور فرمایا ۔

اب تم اپنے گھر جاؤ کہ تمہاری والدہ اور بچے بہت پریشان حال اورتمہارے منتظر ہونگے ۔

شیخ محدث ہندوستان کے حالات سے کچھ ایسے دل برداشتہ ہو چکے تھے کہ یہاں آنے کو مطلق طبیعت نہ چاہتی تھی ۔لیکن شیخ کا حکم ماننا ازبس ضروری تھا ، شیخ نے رخصت کرتے وقت حضرت سیدنا غوث اعظم شیخ عبدالقادر جیلانی رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ کا ایک، پیراہن مبارک عنایت فرمایا ۔

آپ ۱۰۰۰ھ میں ہندوستان واپس آئے ۔ یہ وہ زمانہ تھا جب اکبر کے غیر متعین مذہبی افکار نے دین الہی کی شکل اختیار کر لی تھی ۔ملک کا سارا مذہبی ماحول خراب ہو چکا تھا ۔شریعت وسنت سے بے اعتنائی عام ہوگئی تھی ۔دربار میں اسلامی شعار کی کھلم کھلا تضحیک کی جاتی تھی ۔

حجاز سے واپسی پر شیخ عبدالحق نے دہلی میں مسند درس وارشاد بچھادی ۔شمالی ہندوستان میں اس زمانہ کا یہ پہلا مدرسہ تھا جہاں سے شریعت وسنت کی آواز بلند ہوئی ۔درس وتدریس کا یہ مشغلہ آپ نے آخری لمحات تک جاری رکھا ۔انکا مدرسہ دہلی ہی میں نہیں سارے شمالی ہندوستان میں ایسی امتیازی شان رکھتا تھا کہ سیکڑ وں کی تعداد میں طلبہ استفادہ کیلئے جمع ہوتے اور متعدد اساتذہ درس وتدریس کاکام انجام دیتے تھے ۔

یہ دارالعلوم اس طوفانی دور میں شریعت اسلامیہ اور سنت نبویہ کی سب سے بڑ ی پشت پناہ تھا ، مذہبی گمراہیوں کے بادل چاروں طرف منڈلائے ، مخالف طاقتیں باربار اس دارالعلوم کے بام ودرسے ٹکرائیں لیکن شیخ محدث کے پائے ثبات میں ذرابھی لغزش پید انہ ہوئی ۔آپنے عزم واستقلال سے وہ کام انجام دیا جو ان حالات میں ناممکن نظر آتا تھا ۔

شیخ نے سب سے پہلے والد ماجد سے روحانی تعلیم حاصل کی تھی اور انہیں کے حکم سے حضرت سید موسی گیلانی کے حلقہ مریدین میں شامل ہوئے ۔ یہ سلسلہ قادریہ کے عظیم المرتب بزرگ تھے ۔مکہ معظمہ سے بھی سلسلہ قادریہ ، چشتیہ ، شاذلیہ اور مدینیہ میں خلافت حاصل کی ۔

ہندوستان واپسی پر حضرت خواجہ باقی باللہ کے فیوض وبرکات سے مستفید ہوئے ۔ حضرت خواجہ باقی باللہ کی ذات گرامی احیاء سنت اور اماتت بدعت کی تمام تحریکوں کا منبع و مخرج تھی ۔انکے ملفوظات ومکتوبات کا ایک ایک حرف انکی مجد دانہ مساعی ، بلندی فکرونظر کا شاہد ہے ۔

شیخ کا قلبی اور حقیقی تعلق سلسلہ قادریہ سے تھا ، انکی عقیدت وارادت کا مرکز حضرت سیدنا غوث اعظم رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ تھے ۔ انکے دل ودماغ کا ریشہ ریشہ شیخ عبدالقادر جیلانی قدس سرہ کے عشق میں گرفتار تھا ، یہ سب کچھ آپکی تصانیف سے ظاہر وباہر ہے ۔


حضرت شیخ محدث دہلوی رحمة اللہ تعالیٰ علیہ کوسرکار دوعالم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے بے حد عقیدت ومحبت تھی ۔اسی عقیدت ومحبت کی بناء پر اپنے محبوب صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے نسبت رکھنے والی ہر شے سے محبت رکھتے تھے آپ رحمة اللہ تعالیٰ علیہ جب بھی مدینہ شریف حاضر ہوتے تو اپنے جوتے اتار دیتے اور ننگے پائوں رہتے ۔آپ نے تین سال حجاز مقدس میں قیام فرمایا ۔آپ رحمة اللہ تعالیٰ علیہ چار مرتبہ سرکاردوعالم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی زیارت سے مشرف ہوئے ۔

شیخ عبدالحق محدث دہلوی سلیم شاہ بنوری کے عہد میں پیدا ہوئے اور شاہجہاں کے سنہ جلوس میں وصال فرمایا ۔

اکبر ، جہانگیر اور شاہجہاں کا عہد انہوں نے اپنی آنکھوں سے دیکھا اور حالات کا بغور مطالعہ کیا تھا لیکن انہوں نے کبھی سلاطین یا ارباب حکومت سے کوئی تعلق نہ رکھا ۔عمر بھر گوشہ تنہائی میں رہے۔

وصال شریف

۲۱ ربیع الاول ۱۰۵۲ھ کو یہ آفتاب علم جس نے چورانوے سال تک فضائے ہند کو اپنی ضو فشانی سے منور رکھا تھا غروب ہو گیا ۔انا للہ وانا الیہ راجعون ۔ آپ کی وصیت کے مطابق حوض شمسی کے کنارے سپرد خاک کیا گیا۔

شیخ عبد الحق محدث دہلوی کی دعا

اے اﷲ! میرا کوئی عمل ایسا نہیں جسے تیرے دربار میں پیش کرنے کے لائق سمجھوں، میرے تمام اعمال فساد نیت کا شکار ہیں البتہ مجھ فقیر کا ایک عمل محض تیری ہی عنایت سے اس قابل (اور لائق التفات) ہے اور وہ یہ ہے کہ مجلس میلاد کے موقع پر کھڑے ہو کر سلام پڑھتا ہوں اور نہایت ہی عاجزی و انکساری، محبت و خلوص کے ساتھ تیرے حبیب پاک صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم پر درود و سلام بھیجتا ہوں۔

اے اﷲ! وہ کون سا مقام ہے جہاں میلاد پاک سے بڑھ کر تیری طرف سے خیر و برکت کا نزول ہوتا ہے؟ اس لئے اے ارحم الراحمین مجھے پکا یقین ہے کہ میرا یہ عمل کبھی رائیگاں نہیں جائے گا بلکہ یقیناً تیری بارگاہ میں قبول ہو گا اور جو کوئی درود و سلام پڑھے اور اس کے ذریعے سے دعا کرے وہ کبھی مسترد نہیں ہوسکتی۔ (اخبار الاخیار : 624) 

تصانیف

آپکی تصانیف سوسے زائد شمار کی گئی ہیں ، المکاتیب والرسائل کے مجموعہ میں ۶۸رسائل شامل ہیں ، انکو ایک کتاب شمار کرنے والے تعداد تصنیف پچاس بتاتے ہیں ۔

آپ نے بیسوں موضوعات پر لکھا لیکن آپ کا اصل وظیفہ احباء سنت اور نشر احادیث رسول تھا ، اس لئے اس موضوع پر آپنے ایک درجن سے زیادہ کتابیں تصنیف فرمائیں ، چند کتابیں نہایت مشہور ہیں ۔

اشعة اللمعات ۔ اشعة اللمعات فارسی زبان میں مشکوة کی نہایت جامع اور مکمل شرح ہے ۔ شیخ محدث نے یہ کارنامہ چھ سال کی مدت میں انجام دیا ۔

لمعات التنقیح ۔ عربی زبان میں مشکوة کی شرح ہے ، دوجلدوں پر مشتمل ، فہرست التوالیف میں شیخ نے سر فہرست ا سکا ذکر کیا ہے ، اشعة اللمعات کی تصنیف کے دوران بعض مضامین ایسے پیش آ ئے جن کی تشریح کو فارسی میں مناسب نہ سمجھاکہ یہ اس وقت عوام کی زبان تھی ، بعض مباحث میں عوام کو شریک کرنا مصلحت کے خلاف تھا ، لہذا جو باتیں قلم ا انداز کر دی تھیں وہ عربی میں بیان فرمادیں ۔لمعات میں لغوی ، نحوی مشکلات اور فقہی مسائل کو نہایت عمدہ گی سے حل کیا گیا ہے ۔علاوہ ازیں احادیث سے فقہ حنفی کی تطبیق نہایت کامیابی کے ساتھ کی گئی ہے ۔ اسی طرح دوسری تصانیف حدیث واصول پر آپکی بیش بہا معلوما ت کا خزانہ ہیں ۔

اخبار الاخیار ۔ حضرت شیخ عبدالخق محدث دہلوی کی مشہور و معروف تصنیف اخبار الاخیار میں ہند و پاک کے تقریباً تین سو اولیائے کرام و صوفیائے عظام کا مشہور و مستند تذکره ہے جس میں علماء و مشائخ کی پاکیزه زندگیوں کی دل آویز داستانیں پوری تحقیق سے لکهی گئی ہیں

شیخ کی علمی خدمات کے ساتھ عظیم خیانت

شیخ کی علمی خدمات کا ایک شاندار پہلو یہ ہے کہ انہوں نے تقریباً نصف صدی تک فقہ وحدیث میں تطبیق کی اہم کو شش فرمائی ۔ بعض لوگوں نے اس سلسلہ میں انکی خدمات کو غلط رنگ میں پیش کیا ہے ۔

مثلا نواب صدیق حسن خاں نے لکھا :۔

فقیہ حنفی وعلامہ دین حنفی است ، اما بمحدث مشہور است
شیخ محقق فقہاء احناف سے تھے اور دین حنیف کے زبر دست عالم لیکن محدث مشہور ہیں۔

یعنی یہ تاثر دینے کی کوشش کی ہے کہ شہرت واقعی نہ تھی ، گویا محدث ہونا اسی صورت میں متصور ہوتا ہے جب کسی امام کی تقلید کا قلادہ گردن میں نہ ہو۔

مزید لکھا : ۔

دستگاہش درفقہ بیشتر ازمہارت درعلوم سنت سنیہ ست ۔ولہذا جانب داری اہل رائے جانب اوگرفتہ ۔معہذا جاہا حمایت سنت صحیحہ نیز نمودہ ۔طالب علم راباید کہ درتصانیف وے '' خذما صفا ودع ماکدر '' پیش نظر دارد وزلات تقلید اورابر محامل نیک فرود آرد۔از سوء ظن در حق چنیں بزرگواراں خود را دور گرداند ۔
شیخ علم فقہ میں بہ نسبت علوم سنت زیادہ قدرت رکھتے تھے ، لہذا فقہاء رائے زیادہ تر انکی حمایت کرتے ہیں ، ان تمام چیزوں کے باوجود انہوں نے سنن صحیحہ کی حمایت بھی کی ہے ۔ لہذا طالب علم کو چاہیئے کہ انکی صحیح باتیں اختیار کرے اور غیر تحقیق باتوں سے پرہیز کرے ۔لیکن انکے تقلید ی مسائل کو اچھے مواقع ومحامل پر منطبق کرنا چاہیئے ۔اسے بزرگوں سے بد گمانی اچھی چیز نہیں ۔

اہل علم پر واضح ہے کہ یہ رائے انصاف ودیانت سے بہت دور اور پر تشدد خیالات کو ظاہر کرتی ہے ۔

شیخ محدث کا اصل مقصد یہ تھا کہ فقہ اسلامی کو عزت واحترام کی نگاہ سے دیکھا جانا چاہیئے ۔ اس لئے کہ ا سکی بنیاد قرآن وحدیث پر ہے اور وہ ایک ایسی روح کی پید اوار ہے جس پر اسلامی رنگ چبڑ ہا ہوا ہے ، خاص طور پر فقہ حنفی پر یہ اعتراض کہ وہ محض قیاس اور رائے کا نام ہے بالکل بے بنیاد ہے ، ا سکی بنیاد مستحکم طور پر احادیث پر رکھی گئی ہے ۔مشکوة کا گہرا مطالعہ فقہ حنفی کی بر تریت کو ثابت کرتا ہے ۔

ایسے دور میں جبکہ مسلمانوں کا سماجی نظام نہایت تیزی سے انحطاط پذیر ہورہا تھا ۔ جب اجتہاد گمراہی پھیلانے کا دوسرا نام تھا ، جب علماء سوکی حیلہ بازیوں نے بنی اسرائیل کی حیلہ ساز فطرت کو شرمادیا تھا ، سلاطین زمانہ کے درباروں میں اور مختلف مقامات پر لوگ اپنی اپنی فکر ونظر میں الجھ کر امت کے شیرازہ کو منتشر کر رہے تھے تو ایسے وقت میں خاص طور پر کوئی عافیت کی راہ ہو سکتی تھی تو وہ تقلید ہی تھی ، اس لئے کہ :۔

مضمحل گرددچو تقویم حیات
ملت از تقلید می گیر د ثبات


رہا علم حدیث تو ا سکی اشاعت کے سلسلہ میں شیخ محقق کا تمام اہل ہند پر عظیم احسان ہے خواہ وہ مقلد ین ہوں یا غیر مقلدین ۔بلکہ غیر مقلدین جو آج کل اہل حدیث ہونے کے دعوی دا رہیں انکو تو خاص طور پر مرہون منت ہونا چاہیئے کہ سب سے پہلے علم حدیث کی ترویج واشاعت میں نمایاں کردار شیخ ہی نے اداکیا بلکہ اس فن میں اولیت کا سہرا آپ ہی کے سرہے ۔ آج کے اہل حدیث خواہ ا سکا انکار کریں لیکن انکے سرخیل مولوی عبدالرحمن مبارکپوری مقد مہ شرح ترمذی میں لکھتے ہیں ۔

حتی من اللہ تعالیٰ علی الہند بافاضة ہذا العلم علی بعض علمائھا ، کالشیخ عبدالحق بن سیف الدین الترک الدہلوی المتوفی سنة اثنتین وخمسین والف وامثالھم وھو اول من جاء بہ فی ھذالاقلیم وافاضہ علی سکانہ فی احسن تقویم ۔ثم تصدی لہ ولدہ الشیخ نورالحق المتوفی فی سنة ثلاث وسبعین والف ، وکذلک بعض تلامذتہ علی القلة ومن سن سنة حسنة فلہ اجرھا واجرمن عمل بھا ، کما اتفق علیہ اھل الملة ۔
یہاں تک کہ اللہ تعالیٰ نے ہندوستان پر احسان فرمایا کہ بعض علماء ہند کو اس علم سے نوازا ۔ جیسے شیخ عبدالحق محدث دہلوی متوفی ۱۰۵۲ ھ وغیرہ ۔یہ پہلے شخص ہیں جو اس ہندوستان میں یہ علم لائے اور یہاں کے باشندگان پر اچھے طریقے سے اس علم کا فیضان کیا ۔ پھر انکے صاحبزادے شیخ نورالحق متوفی ۱۰۷۳ھ نے ا سکی خوب اشاعت فرمائی۔ اسی طرح آپکے بعض تلامذہ بھی اس میں مشغول ہوئے ۔لہذا جس نے اچھا طریقہ ایجاد کیا ا سکو ا سکا اجر ملے گا اور بعد کے ان لوگوں کا بھی جو اس پر عمل پیرا رہے ، جیسا کہ اہل اسلام کا اس پر اتفاق ہے۔

غرض یہ بات واضح ہو چکی کہ شیخ محقق علی الاطلاق محدث دہلوی نے علم حدیث کی نشرواشاعت کا وہ عظیم کارنامہ انجام دیا ہے جس سے آج بلا اختلاف مذہب ومسلک سب مستفید ہیں ، یہ دوسری بات ہے کہ اکثر شکر گذا رہیں اور بعض کفران نعمت میں مبتلا ہیں ۔

آپکی اولاد امجاد اور تلامذہ کے بعد اس علم کی اشاعت میں نمایاں کردار ادا کرنے والے آپکے صاحبزادگان ہیں جنکی علمی خدمات نے ہندوستان کو علم حدیث کے انوار وتجلیات سے معمور کیا۔ (شیخ محدث دہلوی۔ مقدمہ اخبار الاخیار)

17th Rabi' al-Awwal | Hadrat Sayyid Shah Aal-e-Ahmad Acchay Miyan Marehrwi Alaihir raHmah

Hadrat Sayyid Shah Aal-e-Ahmad
Acchay Miyan Marehrwi Alaihir raHmah


https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/401336_10150529460775334_672380333_9457989_1633427176_n.jpg

Qudwat al-Kaamileen, Abu al-Fadhl Hadrat Sayyid Shah Aal-e-Ahmed Ache Miyan is the thirty sixth Imam and Shaykh of the Silsila Aaliyah Qaadiriyah Barakatiyah Ridawiyyah Nooriyah.

BIRTH:

He was born on the 28th of Ramadan al-Mubaarak 1160 Hijri.

NAME:

His name is Sayyid Aal-e-Ahmed and his title is Ache Miya. His father was has Hadrat Sayyid Shah Hamza.

PREDICTION OF HIS BIRTH:

Hadrat Saahib al-Barkaat Shah Barkatullah said that he would be blessed with a son (descendant) in the fourth generation, who will strengthen the brightness of the Khandaan. He also gave a cloak to his eldest son, Hadrat Sayyiduna Shah Aale Muhammad to pass it over to the child. When the Bismillah Khwaani of Hadrat Ache Mia was taking place, Hadrat Shah Aale Muhammad, seated him down on his lap and said, "This is the child concerning whom my father foretold."

EDUCATION:

He attained his education under the watchful eye of his father, and also studied tibb (medicine) under the tutorship of Kaleem Nasrullah Saahib Marehrwi.

HIS EXCELLENCE:

He was a very powerful Aarif Billah. There was no example to him in Karaamat and knowledge in his time. He was well known for his Mujahida and wazaaif. He personally took care of his disciples and was an excellent example of the character of the Prophet ù. He showed love to all his disciples, but paid special attention to those who came from Badayoun Shareef. He would often say, "Badayoun is our property which was given to us by Huzoor Ghawth al-Azam."

Once, a person went to the Naqeeb al-Ashraaf of Iraq and asked a question relating to the oneness of Allah. He asked him to travel to India and ask his question to Hadrat Shaykh Abdul Aziz Muhadith-e-Delhwi. The man travelled to India and met Hadrat Muhadithe Delhwi. Hadrat answered his query but he was still not fully satisfied. Hadrat Shaykh Muhadith-e-Delhwi then said that he should travel to Marehrah Shareef and meet with Hadrat Ache Mia , as he would get the most satisfying answer from him. Hadrat spent most of his time in Ibaadat. With the exception of his five daily Salaah, he always performed Salaatul Maaqoos and many other wazeefas and amals. He had a special pattern in his daily life. He would wake up in the third portion of the night, make fresh wudhu and then perform his Tahajjud Salaah. He then raised his hands and made dua for prosperity in Deen and for the maghfirat of those close to him. After this, he would read the Kalima Shareef aloud eleven times. The door of the house would then be closed, and none would be allowed to enter. He would go into his room for a while and then enter the Khanqah Shareef. He would then sit in the company of the dervishes and fulfill their needs, and as a manner of encouragement, he would revise some of their wazaaif. He would then enter the Dargah Shareef, and first make Fateha at the Mazaar of his father. He would then make Fateha at the Mazaar of his beloved mother and all his other forefathers. He would go into the garden, which was adjacent to the Dargah. He would lay a carpet and sit under a fruit tree. After a while, he would then go into the Khanqah again. This was the open court, where everyone was allowed to present his or her problems and difficulties before him. He trained his disciples with firmness. He very seldom gave wazifas and amals to ordinary people. Like his predecessors, he assisted those who needed financial assistance etc, very discreetly. He ate two or three thin rotis (bread) with some gravy or moong dhall for lunch. He would then rest for a while (Qailulah). He would then make fresh wudhu and pray his Zohar Salaah. He would then become engrossed in the recitation of the Holy Quran. He would then go to the Khanqah and read the wazifa of Duroods. He would then pray Asar Namaaz at the Musjid and return to the Khanqah. He would go into the Musjid for Maghrib Salaah and then pray the Khatm-e-Khajegaan after Maghrib, and then return to the Khanqah. He would then sit a while with his Khaadims who showed great respect and honour to him. He would then pray his Esha Salaah and the doors would be closed.

BOOKS AND TREATIES:

One of the most famous books written by Hazra Ache Mia is a book called Aa'in-e-Ahmadi, another book was a compilation of wazeefas and special amals. He also wrote the famous Adaabus Saalikeen and the Diwan Ash'aar.

HIS KARAAMATS:

Janaab Shaykh Rasool Bakhsh says that once a soldier came to meet Hadrat. He suffered from leprosy and thus stood very far away from Hadrat. Hadrat saw him and called him closer. He said that he was not worthy of coming too close. Hadrat again asked him to come closer.

When he came close to Hadrat, Hadrat placed his hand over the area that was affected with white patches and said, "There is nothing here" When  the man looked, he found that there was no sign of the illness."

It is in Asaar-e-Ahmadi that a person from Bukhara came to Marehrah Shareef. He performed Zohar Namaaz at the Khanqah and then presented  himself before Hadrat Ache Mia . He said, "I heard your name and came here to gain spiritual excellence, as I do not have the ability to make Mujahida etc. I wish to attain this without any striving, and just through your blessed sight." Hadrat smiled at him and said, "You wish to attain such a huge valuable and yet you do not wish to go through any strenuous exercise?"

One person from amongst those seated in the gathering mocked the man and said, "Do you think that it is some type of sweet, that it can just be put into your mouth?"

On hearing this, Hadrat said, "Do not say such a thing. Nothing is far from the Power of Allah." Hadrat then gave him a Durood Shareef and asked him to read it. That night, he read the Durood Shareef and was blessed with seeing the Prophet ù in his dream. The man's entire life changed in a few moments. The mystical secrets dawned upon him and he entered the world of Tasawwuf. In the morning, he went to Hadrat Ache Mia and said, "Last night, the Prophet ù said to me, 'after every century, there will be such a person in my Ummah, who will revive my Deen." He said, "Huzoor! In this Century, you are that personality."

Molvi Riyaazudeen Sahawani, the Khalifa of Hadrat Ache Mia writes as follows in Gulshan-e-Abraar: A villager came to Hadrat and became mureed. After becoming mureed, he did not get the opportunity of coming to the Khanqah for a very long time. One year, he managed to present himself at the Khanqah for the Urs of Hadrat Sayyid Hamza. The Khanqah was filled with thousands of devotees' and disciples. The man thought  that Hadrat had thousands of mureeds and new groups of people become his mureed on a daily basis. He thus thought that it was not going to be possible for Hadrat to recognize him. After a while, he managed to reach Hadrat Ache Mia and presented his salaam to him and spoke a few words. Hadrat then pointed him out and called him close. He asked about him and about his village. Hadrat then said, "You take the flock of your fellow villagers with you when you go to graze your own flock. How do you recognize your own flock from those of the others?" He answered by explaining the method that is used to differentiate the flocks. Hadrat then said, "Mia! This Faqeer also recognizes his flock in the same way. There is a (spiritual) string of love that is around their necks." Hadrat had a small trunk, which was called Ghala-e-Ghausiyah. He kept his money in this small trunk. He distributed money to the needy, took care of the Khaadims and financed the entire Khanqah, but there was never a shortage in this trunk. This too was a Karaamat of Hadrat Ache Mia.

HIS CHILDREN:

Hadrat married Fazal Faatima, the daughter of Sayyid Ghulam Ali Salharwi Bilgiraami. He was blessed with a son and a daughter. His daughter passed away on the 11th of Rabi ul Awwal 1196 Hijri and his son Hadrat Saa'in Saahib passed away just a few days after his bismillah khwaani due to fever, on the 13th of Rabi ul Awwal 1196 Hijri.

HIS KHULAFA:

The actual number of his mureeds is not known, but many have said that Hadrat had approximately two hundred thousand mureeds. Hadrat's Khulafa were all very great personalities. Some of the names of his Khulafa are as follows:
