“A’uzu Billahi Minash Shaitanir  Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem.” “Atiullah atiur Rasul wa Ulil amre minkum.” And always a reminder for myself ana abdukal 'ajeezu, dayeefu,  miskinu, zhalim, wa jahl, and but for the grace of Allah (AJ) that we are  still in existence. Alhamdulillah for all the khidmat (service). That alhamdulillah  everyone putting out nice AI videos, images, and cutting up the longer videos, putting  out reels. InshaAllah Allah (AJ)... Also, people translating to Spanish, to other  languages. Allah (AJ) give everybody immense blessings and himmah (zeal) to do more. Our food  collection, mashAllah, immense amounts of food being collected. Our video productions, in-house  productions, the zikrs (Divine remembrance), the majlis (association), the center. Alhamdulillah  for everyone's life of service and their immense love for Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ shows by  the khidmat and the service. InshaAllah, the food distributions, the orphanage  support, the qurbani (sacrifice) programs, the water well programs, and distributing food  in Kenya. Hopefully now in Nigeria there's a Naqshbandi out there that will start putting  out food and qurbans. In Pakistan and Vancouver, Los Angeles, Chicago. So, alhamdulillah,  everywhere, wherever we can go and wherever there's students whom are willing to participate.  All it takes is a… somebody with a bit of himmah or zeal within their heart to want to serve, want  to participate, and the rest Allah (AJ) opens. We pray that Allah (AJ) inspire their hearts to  send us more people who want to participate and have the zeal - the himmah in which to  participate and receive the nazar (gaze) of Prophet ﷺ and alhamdulillah, inshaAllah. Bi Hurmati Muhammad al-Mustafa wa bi siri Surat al-Fatiha. Ya shafa’at (intercession) ya Rasulul Kareem (The Most Generous Messenger). Ameen! InshaAllah, what we have from last week? InshaAllah we'll go over some of the things  we have from last week. Anybody... comments from the talks, we can get where people are on these,  inshaAllah, so we don't have to keep opening new subjects and we can go over some of the  subjects that we've talked about, inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah And please, everybody, do go to the Muhammadan Way  website and keep playing with the AI. Keep asking the AI the questions and ‘what is the awrad’  (daily awrad), ‘what is Naqshbandiya,’ ‘what is the muraqabah’ (spiritual connection). Whatever  you think you want to ask, ask the AI. If the answer was good, give thumbs up. If the answer was  you think off and missing some essential facts, put the thumb down so that they can monitor and  begin to tweak the AI because this is all custom and in-house for us. It'll go off of ChatGPT  and we'll be running on our own servers. So, the more input we have, then the more the guys who  are monitoring can understand where the answer is, how to tweak it, and how to make it more  appropriate or if something was inappropriate, inshaAllah. Allah (AJ) bless everyone  and dress everyone and try your best to use it and spread for people to use it  because it's truly amazing. Pretty soon, it'll be answering the emails and correspondence,  everything because it gives a much better reply because it has also the AI for English, letter  writing, it has a very eloquent skill of putting knowledges into an information back to  somebody. So, alhamdulillah, very good. Sorry, what was the question? As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi. Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah. Could you please expand on the strong-tied analogy you used that could possibly take  a student away or cause difficulties on their path? Also, the benefits of learning  how to swim spiritually and physically. How to increase your tie to the shaykh? That's  what we asked the AI, and I posted the reply. That, ‘How can I serve the Shaykh better?’  Go to Nurmuhammad, go to our AI, and say, ‘How can I best serve the Shaykh?’ And then  you’ll get a wonderful reply, that better than how we would reply, and the English skills from  our people, but it comprise it very nicely in paragraphs. That ‘Do like this, do like this, do  like this’. And I encourage people to go to the AI and actually ask that ‘how to increase the ties,’  and it listed that everything that we've talked about is that do all of the services and practices  that the shaykh has asked. So I don't really think if somebody is truly, truly doing what has been  taught that they would have any doubt of their connection and the strength of their connection.  But it's when we leave things, and we truly don't listen because we have ears but it's sometimes  difficult for people to hear, and it's important to go back to everything that's been taught.  That we do the charity. Why? So that our hearts are open and that we have a charitable, humble  character. We live a life of service, wanting to serve others and improve the conditions of others  while we want to improve our own conditions. Then we do our meditation, our muraqabah, all our  practices that the shaykh has asked. Why? So that we have our spiritual connection. So, body,  mind, and soul must be connected to the way. So how do you connect the body and it has reference  to parts of the soul – Is by your charitable acts. How do you tame the physical body? By putting your  time into it, putting your effort into practices, going out and doing charities. Although it dresses  the soul, but it has a very strong discipline upon the physicality. When you've committed yourself  and charity is like a tuition into a Divinely university. If you were the one paying your  tuitions, not your dad, and you pay your tuition, you pay your tuition, the likelihood of you  showing up to your classes is very high. When someone else pays your tuition, you don't really  care about the classes because you didn't pay for them. You didn't have anything in it to be  worried about. If you worked and from that work you paid for your courses, you're the first one  to show up in the class. There's no difference in Allah's (AJ) way. That when we have some skin  in the game, when we have our own participation in the game, when we do our charity, we do our  service. Oh, you know how many times we went out and fed, and how many times we did this and how  many times we did that. You're tied into that system. You're not likely to bounce around and  bounce out of it unless you're willing to restart that whole system somewhere else. And most people  after a few years of serving and giving and doing, that's it, you know, they put the nail on their…  on the rope, and they're tied to the shaykh, tied to the way, tied to the tariqah (spiritual  path), and that's what we're trying to do is teach people: tie yourself to the tariqah, tie yourself  to the love of Prophet ﷺ. How? By following the tariqahs. You can't say, ‘I'm just going to  follow and love the Prophet by myself ﷺ.’ Very difficult. The overwhelming tide of people do not  talk like that nor think like that. So you start to try to watch other people's TikToks, social  medias, and YouTubes, and the last thing they talk about is Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. They even, even  give reference to Hadith and Qur'an and they lie, and it wasn't true. And you go back and say,  ‘This is not true at all.’ When someone said, ‘lower your gaze, and the gaze was only for the  men to lower their gaze,’ it was a lie. The Qur'an actually asked women ‘Lower their gaze,’ but  that person who said that was lying. So they don't even have a problem about lying of Qur'an  and Hadith because they'll reference everything according to themself and their understandings.  So tariqah is a path to the heart of Prophet ﷺ. So to keep on the tariqah, keep on the  way, support the tariqah, support the way, support your relationship with the shaykh  it ties you to the reality. It doesn't tie the shaykh because the shaykh is already tied to  Prophet ﷺ and to his shaykhs because that's what he did all his life. So you're not untying the  shaykh if you don't support, and you're going to make them to lose their mission. No, no, Allah  (AJ) will exchange people for better people, so the mission's never lost. It's mission  impossible. It's always in the heart of Prophet ﷺ, but Allah (AJ) will exchange us for a better  person. If I don't do what Allah (AJ) asked of me, no problem, one better will come and do a better  job of what I should have been doing. So the life is of service. So all of these bind the student.  Then, if they're truly binded and they’re truly bound, then you think that they would sit and  make their muraqabah, make their connection. They paid for it with their blood, their sweat,  and their tears. So why aren't they trying to get their treasures? So that's the key to tariqah. If  we don't do any of that and we just want to know, like, ‘How can I increase my connection’,  it's not going to be fast. But I recommend people to use the AI at the website. And  alhamdulillah, very eloquent responses and very thorough, inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum, Sayyidi. Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah. Sayyidi you taught us that Sayyidina TaSeen is the Catalyst during tafakkur (contemplation).  Does ghadab (anger) come as a catalyst when we are heedless and not staying in  hudur (presence) of our shaykhs? Yeah, the... we have the fire of Nimrod.  The talk about the fire, “Qulna ya naaru, kunee Bardan wa Salaman ‘ala Ibrahim.” Then this is the story of Sayyidina Ibrahim (as) being cast into a fire  because everyone's going to follow the way of the Prophets (as). So this is what the story  and these qissah, these realities of the lives of the Prophets (as) is that we have to walk through  them. So when Sayyidina Ibrahim (as) comes to us in this station, and when you study the  levels of the heart, when he's coming into the Qalb (heart), the Sir (secret), the Sirr  e Sir (secret of the secret) Sayyidina Ibrahim (as) wa Sayyidina Musa (as) and opening the  realities of the kingdom of light, he's coming and teaching that: you have to overcome  fire. This fire that comes into your life, you have to make it to be cool and peaceful. And  in your abode, the whole dunya (material world) is Nimrod. That's why we call the ‘Fir’aunic  bloodline.’ They rule this Earth, and it's in Qur'an that they rule the earth because these are  the people of Nimrod. These are the people of the Fir’auns (pharaohs), these are the descendants  that rule the earth till today. And because of their allegiance with shaitan (satan), their game  is to make people angry and ignorant. That when we described in other talks, ignorance—it amplifies  anger. Wise people shouldn't be angry; ignorant people are always angry. You see them ranting  and raving on social media, yelling, screaming, yelling, screaming, yelling, screaming, because  they're ignorant. But wise people, they don't talk like that, they don't even think like that. And  as a result of these knowledges, their behaviors are different, and the reality is different for  them, inshaAllah. What were we talking about? What was the question? [Shaykh laughs] Sayyidi you taught us that Sayyidina TaSeen is the catalyst during tafakkur… The fire, the fire, yeah. That how to control the fire from anger and then bring  that fire once it's stable “Qulna ya naaru, kunee Bardan wa Salaman” to be “bardan wa  salaam” means the presence of Prophet ﷺ. So with the salawats (praises upon Prophet  ﷺ Muhammad ﷺ) and the Hudur an Nabi ﷺ – the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, that fire comes  under control and it becomes, and should become, something cool and peaceful. When something's  cool and peaceful, it means you have a control over the fire. The fire becomes the zeal in  which you want to operate; you want to conquer; you want to go out and spread the word; you want  to do the good deeds; you want Prophet ﷺ to be happy with us. If it's not under control, it's  like a volcano just trying to burn everybody, and the zeal becomes anger, and the anger just  becomes the scorching and hurting of people. So this is an essential station on the Sirr e Sir on  how to use the faculty of closeness, of hearing and seeing to open up these realities of lights  with the salawats and the light of Prophet ﷺ, the presence of the Muhammadan fire and not  satanic fire. The Muhammadan fire in which is a blessed light, and that requires then the salawats  so that you can draw near to the Muhammadan fire. Without that, the fiery nature of people will be  satanic, because everybody's going to have a fire; it's an element within them. If you don't  do the salawats, the fire becomes satanic, and they do, you know... they can even be and  say that they're spiritual, but they have a strong satanic energy. And if they should get  angry or something not the way they want it, they explode, and that's when the wildness of  their beast that we talked about. So yeah, that fire is the love of Prophet ﷺ. The only way to  take the light of TaSeen ﷺ is by the salawat and durood sharif (praising on Prophet Muhammad ﷺ),  inshaAllah on Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum, Sayyidi. Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah. Is it ever possible for the actions of the form  to alter the standing in the world of light, or do our actions only reveal and unlock  what we already have been given? What's the difference in that? How do you know  what you've been given and what you're altering, because you don't know what you've been given?  I would say it's the same. If I don't know what Allah (AJ) is giving to me, all my concern  should be, again because we're not philosophy students here, all my concern in life should be  is that my form has to submit and do the Will of Allah (AJ) for His kingdom is in my heart, and  I want to put His kingdom in my heart. Then, my life is to submit. If I submit, I try to  use my form for the hasanat (goodness) of my dunya. So that I have the goodness  of my life that I'll build and use my life to build my akhirah (hereafter).  I do good, I speak good, I act good, and I should see good. What Allah (AJ) gives to  me, it doesn't matter if it’s… was decreed for me, newly decreed for me or anciently decreed for me.  That doesn't matter because Allah (AJ) will give what He wants to give. But the most important  is to make my physicality to serve. The time I have... “Qul inna salati wa nusuki wa mahyaya  wa mamati lillahi Rabbil ‘Aalamin”. ‘And did you think you would not be tested like  those who came before you with your life, your family, your property, your wealth, your...’  everything will be tested by Allah (AJ). So, alhamdulillah, we put all of that so that  we can reach our perfection, inshaAllah. And there's not too much time left, so these days are  immensely important and to learn the understanding of service, khidmat and how to draw near to the  shaykh, how to draw near to the Hudur e Shaykh and the presence of the shaykhs, so that we can  move closer to the presence of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum, Sayyidi. Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah. Sayyidi, regarding the levels of the heart, does  the slave move from one level from the other in the exact order, or does he move to specific  levels according to his specific conditions? No, it's just an opening at all time. It's not  necessarily one, then the next, then the next. It's a general opening of all realities,  but one fully doesn't elevate until the lower levels are understood and opened.  And they can only be open by a strong connection with the shaykh. It's the faiz  (downpouring blessings) of the shaykh that the connection opens those realities. For the  Qalb to open, they have to have a very strong connection with the shaykhs. It's the knowledge  of this, Ilm ul Yaqeen (Knowledge of Certainty) so that they studied these subjects. Ayn ul Yaqeen  (Vision of Certainty) means that they entered into the subject with the eye of their heart and  they're witnessing that light entering into their heart. They witness the realities that the shaykh  has read about, that wrote about, and they begin to witness those realities so that it becomes Haqq  ul Yaqeen (Certainty of Truth). So, they have to open up the Qalb which is knowledge, they have to  open up the Sir which is red, and the inner fight. So, if you had and a strong inner fight, you must  have a very strong connection with the shaykh because you're willing to push off the demon that  sits upon the heart and allow the shaykh to sit upon the heart. So, that's why at the Sir is a  big battle where Sayyidina Umar al-Farooq comes to help ‘alayhis salaam that “Qul jaa alhaqq”. That if you're standing for truth, get rid of that falsehood within you and around you. So, all of  these are you know self-evident. We seek a path towards knowledge is the Qalb, so that we become  students of knowledge. So, your greatest weapon is a pen, to write knowledges, understand knowledges.  Those knowledges have to be written onto my book. I'm not a spectator just hearing knowledges. I  want to write the knowledges so I can transfer them onto my kitab (book). Once they're on  my kitab, I'm dressed with those knowledges. Then I begin to close my eyes, meditate into  these knowledges so they become a real and a haq (truth) for me. As I'm being dressed by  these knowledges, then now you are traversing these oceans of light into these realities, into  these oceans of realities. You'll be dressed with the Sir, and then all the knowledges within the  Sir begin to dress the servant. And from the Sir, they go to the passing through the Akhfa (most  hidden) and the realities of death until they can enter into the world of light. Because if you  study the diagram that from the Sir, you have to pass through the black hole, the black Akhfa  reality, which is death. Everything has to die, for you to die to reach to the world of light -  Alam al Mithal and the world of light and malakut (heavenly realm). That's why everything in its  key is based on tafakkur and how to contemplate, how to connect with the contemplation. And as a  result of contemplating, then you would understand that your connection with the shaykh is extremely  important and how to serve and a khidmat towards the shaykh, inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah Sayyidi, you had mentioned about smart contracts  and that if you take even one letter from someone, you owe your life. Now, what if a person is taking  from five different shaykhs, what happens? Five different shaykhs, you can’t take from five  different shaykhs. So, they take knowledges but they're not truly entering the contract with  the knowledge. So it's a difference. Your… And especially if they’re tariqah shaykhs, it’s  very difficult to understand their knowledges, make your connection and connect your heart and  connect to their wallet and the conveyance of their coin into your heart. It's like you playing  on a website thinking you have a whole bunch of Bitcoins. You don't have the coins; you may even  have spam coins where somebody send something to you thinking you got a Bitcoin. It's not  that easy to get the shaykh’s coins. It means you connected. When you sought the connection;  you felt the faiz. When you felt the faiz, the downloading poured into the heart. We've met many  people in this luminous path of ours in 35 years, people saying like ridiculously clowny statements  that, ‘I hold five tariqahs.’ And they tell us, ‘You know, Naqshbandi I hold five tariqahs’. Say,  ‘What kind of a clown is this? How could you talk like that?’ You can't even hold the one tariqah;  not even one tariqah can be held. Its amanat and its trust; its responsibility of how it's holding  mankind and their sicknesses kill the shaykhs, you're talking about you holding five  tariqahs? These are the times we live in when ‘They take the religion as a jest’  Allah (AJ) talks about, like a ‘Playing.’ They say these ridiculous, playful statements  as if… what are you talking about? Not even one tariqah can be held. All the tariqahs now are  in the hands of Imam Mahdi (as) and Sayyidina Ali (as). Not one of them can be held. How you hold  five tariqahs? And the person doesn't even do muraqabah and connect. It doesn't work that  way. And when you connect with your shaykh, when connected with our shaykh, connected with  our shaykh, connected with our shaykh, immense amount of testing, immense amounts of humiliation,  immense amounts of demolishing and effacing. Onto a day in which your heart was smashed and Allah  (AJ) rebuilt, and as a result of the rebuild, the faiz and the flow of knowledges began. That's  not something you can go around with five people and do because the other four will say, ‘What  kind of a adulterer are you? That what you do, took from this shaykh, and now you want to  come and take ours?’ It’s considered adultery. So, no, it doesn't work that way. So, the loyalty  is to their life and death with the shaykh. He passes, then he represents that reality that the  shaykh dressed him for. If he didn't reach that trust and he didn't reach his trust, then he will  be transferred over to a shaykh that can complete him, and he'll now connect with his shaykh and  the new shaykh and now again start the process of what the shaykh wants as a criteria of loyalty and  training, and then to be completed in the process of their annihilation and the process of the  downpouring and downloading within the heart. So, it's not something easy, and it's not something  that's playful - it comes and goes. That's why we gave the talks on the technology. You know how  difficult it is to get this coin? It doesn't don’t come like that. You actually have to give your  code. See the code of the sending wallet, match the code with your receiving wallet, sync them  to make sure that you have the correct receiving wallet, and then this encryption will come, the  transfer will begin, and it's written on a ledger. It's written somewhere. Allah (AJ) is the best  of those to keep hisaab (account). So, what kind of a reality is that, that you're going to try to  connect with a shaykh, he's like the Bitcoin mine. You're trying to get coins and realities from his  heart. They're going to investigate your code and the wallet within your heart – Is it capable of  receiving this coin. That has to be downloaded, the permission in the heart has to be given  by Allah (AJ), by Prophet ﷺ, ‘His heart - his wallet is capable of receiving the coins you  want to send’. Otherwise, he doesn't even have the code. You know, if you try to download hex  or some other type of code into your wallet, for our tech guys who are listening, if it's not  there in the receiving wallet, you can't take the code because the code will be sent to somebody who  can't receive the coin. All of those are signs of Allah's (AJ) immense technologies. Allah (AJ)  will look to the heart of the receiving servant and said, ‘No, that that is not even capable  of receiving these knowledges. There is no coin ready for them.’ And if it is ready, then their  encryption has to match the shaykh's encryption, and then begins the faiz with all their testing,  with all their loyalty, all their commitment, everything they've done and asked that the  shaykh has asked and they did of their service, their life, their dedication, then these coins  begin to download. And they keep checking them downloading, downloading. And a greater possession  where the shaykh keeps the custody wallet. So, now with these technologies, we're understanding  where Mawlana Shaykh (Q) would say that whatever we downloaded to you, we're keeping the custody of  it in case one day shaitan plays with you because you're not perfected yet, plays with you, makes  you lose your mind, and you think you're running away with these jewels. So now in technology, they  have the custodian. Even when I transfer to you, I keep the custody of the wallet. Why? Because  anytime I can lock it and hold it back. Or at the same time, you can say, 'I lost it. Now what do I  do?' Well, if I have the custody of your wallet, I can say, 'Oh, we'll give you access again.' So  these technologies are immense in showing Divine realities, and it's just a tip of the Divine  coding on how difficult it is to achieve in Allah's (AJ) way. So nobody can say that they're  holding five tariqahs, 'I hold this, I hold that.' It's not given away like you know cracker  jack box and candy and carnival toys. These are things that are the trust of the entire created  universe, these realities, and just to achieve some sense of reality from it is an immense  achievement than anyone could ever possibly say they hold the tariqah. That, that is in the  hands of Imam Mahdi (as) because the burden of it is too heavy and too high. If they have ijazah  (permission) for zikr, that's something different. But to hold the tariqah is just something  immense. InshaAllah, Allah (AJ) help us all. As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah. Sayyidi you mentioned the level of the heart –  Sir is important for the inner fight. Is this why Sayyidina Mahdi (as) dresses this reality  and level as now is the time of the fight? InshaAllah, you have to get the book and then ask  the AI also, ‘What's the reality of the Sir?’ The Sir is a red and represents struggle. Sayyidina  Umar al Farooq (as) and we described the reality of the siwak (teeth cleaning twig) and the  struggling for the truth against falsehood. And so everybody has a falsehood in their life, and  we have to destroy it and we have to live on the reality of the truth. And the truth is the love  of Prophet ﷺ, follow what Prophet ﷺ brought for us and leave what he forbid for us. And this becomes  a inner fight, a battle that's inside and outside. You'll fight everybody inside, all the shaitans  within us that don't want to follow the way and the sunnah (traditions) of Sayyidina Muhammad  ﷺ, and they give every reason possible and every logic possible. And then the immense battle  outside that none of your family want to follow, none of the friends want to follow, nobody around  wants to follow. And that's when we said it will be like holding a hot coal will be like carrying  your religion because the religion is the way of Prophet ﷺ, not the modification that people do  thinking ‘This is okay and that's all right.’ And they logic and have logic with themselves  and Allah (AJ). But no, keeping the way of Prophet ﷺ that is the fire and the coal, that  is what will be difficult because that’s the key against the fire. Anyone who can hold a fire  in their hand well they must be pretty strong and the rest will be taken by the fire because they  don't hold it, they don't keep it. And we said before a thousand times: that Prophet ﷺ is the key  of protection. As much as if we in our life that we can adhere to that reality, then we should  be dressed by his holy nazar, his satisfaction and his rida, inshaAllah. That's the key to  love, is that you have to follow the one whom you love. And you have to follow with respect and  admiration and the best of manners, inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah Sayyidi as many of us have  non-Muslim family members, during the holidays seems like the testing fire  increases where we also have to deal with foul language and being made fun of by others, by our  family members but they still love us and care for us. How should we respond and act? What we just described like a hot coal. So try to put a lollipop in your mouth so you don't  have to say anything and try to tolerate what you can. And wherever it’s respectful and polite and  wherever the atmosphere is correct and respectful. And anywhere that's beyond the level of respect  then politely bowing out. There's going to be a lot of forbidden food and a lot of forbidden  items then you say, ‘It's not really good for me and it's not good for my family to be around that  so we'll pass’. And if people are reasonable and wish to accommodate then people accommodate.  So we try our best to do whatever we can for the people whom are in the west, the people on  the East don't understand what we're talking about but because you know, they're all in Muslim  countries. But in the west with people whom are even Muslim background doing things and wanting to  have trees and wanting to do all sorts of things to imitate a people and to imitate a way that's  not our way. So in these days, going to events, trying to make sure that the events are halal  (permissible) and clean and appropriate so that Allah (AJ) won't be upset, Prophet ﷺ would not  be upset, it's probably more important than other people being upset. And the imitation and taking  into one's homes items that are forbidden and not a part of the deen (religion), I would imagine  that it's not a time to have Allah (AJ) upset with us. So everyone has the right to use  their own judgment but in our judgment and our understanding is we don't want Allah (AJ)  angry in days of difficulty. If you thought you could do that before and then you'll just say  forgiveness and make tawbah (repentance), now is a day in which you could wake up and there's no time  for forgiveness. An earthquake has come, a flood has come, lightning has come. Towns go missing  with floods, there's all sorts of calamities happening by Allah's (AJ) ghadab and anger. So  it's probably best time on earth right now is to keep Allah (AJ) happy and to follow the shari’ah  (Divine law), and to follow the way of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ, in the east or in the west to the best  of our abilities, inshaAllah. This keeps us under the umbrella of protection, inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah. Sayyidi Allah (AJ) says He hears the du'a (supplication) of the oppressed ones  most, and if we oppressed ourselves will Allah (AJ) hear our du'as to be good  ones? Madad (support) ya Sayyidi. Yeah, He hears the du'a of your soul asking  for guidance and that to send a guide to get rid of this guy's ego. So that's why we're  now all inspired to be sitting here. So, Allah (AJ) accepted the du'a of the soul that,  ‘Please don't let me to be oppressed by my physicality.’ So, the opportunity that Allah  (AJ) gave all of us to come to the tariqah, to sit to listen to the tariqah, this is our  greatest battle. Now, are we going to follow it, and are we going to follow our physicality, or  are we going to follow the inspiration of the soul and the shaykhs? Because the soul  wants what the shaykh wants that - take over this guy's physicality and control  it. So, anytime someone wants to know, ‘What does my soul want and what my  physicality wants?’ My physicality wants recognition and wants to be correct. My soul wants  my physicality to be humiliated and brought down, and my soul wants humility and humbleness and  wants to be a servant of the light. So these are very different understandings and different wants.  Anytime you feel humiliated, your soul is happy, and your physicality is very angry. Anytime  you feel not listened to, not respected, your soul is very happy and your physicality is  very angered. And the reverse. So, it means that the what the soul wants is something completely  different than what people understand. That's why if you humble yourself without needing to be  humiliated, the soul is very happy with you. And that's when your nafs (ego) is trying to learn  from your soul, because if you have a strong soul, your zikr, your practices will keep pushing  it down, and the energy of your soul will burn the nafs. So, you'll go places, and you will be  very humble because the soul has a strong power to put your nafs down. Now is not the time to act  like something. Be nothing. Be humble, and people feel comfortable with that. So, it's training  and the energy that they bring upon their soul in which to be humble and people to be happy. And  there's a time in which they use their authority, and there's a time in which to learn what the...  use what they've learned in humility and in the way of Allah (AJ), inshaAllah. As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah What is the spiritual benefit of doing a lot of Khatm e Khwajagan (Zikr of  the Masters of the Naqshbandi Way) after completing daily awrads (daily practices)? I don't know what the spiritual benefit is because it's not recommended to do lots of Khatm  e Khwajagans because… Don't do things that haven't been authorized because it's an energy that people  can't handle, and it wasn't something authorized. So, when they're given authorization that: do the  awrad, do the zikr, do the khatm and these are in the prescription amount. So, if we say like,  ‘Take this antibiotic because of your sickness, one tablet three times a day.’ Can you take  three tablets three times a day? No, because the toxicity of that medicine most likely will  put you in the hospital very quick. That which was a healing for you became toxic for you because  you're not capable of handling that. So, sometimes people may do zikrs beyond what was asked of  them, and all of a sudden, they start to sense many different energies around them that Allah  (AJ) veiled them. And as a result of that energy, immediately they became anxious. Immediately,  they felt they were being attacked because if you could see the amount of negative energy just  waiting to attack you, you would have a difficult time functioning in life. But Allah (AJ) veils  us. When you unveil yourself at a not authorized time and you're not at an authorized level, it's  like taking a video game, getting a cheat code, and going up 10 levels. But you didn't progress  for those 10 levels. You don't have all the things you were supposed to gain on each level. You just  went up 10 floors, and now you're dealing with demons that are much more powerful and ready to  come after you. So unveiling oneself when they're not ready to be unveiled, nor do they have the  tools to equip themself for that unveiling is not allowed at all and not appropriate. That's  why we say, follow the tariqah way, follow what the shaykh has given. Don't be anxious thinking,  ‘I can take 10 of these pills, and I'll get there faster.’ There is no fast way. The only way is to  connect with the shaykh, connect with the shaykh, do the zikr that's been asked, and make your  connection. You start doing beyond that; you start to hear and feel things and will have a  very difficult experiences, and it's difficult to close those doors right away, inshaAllah. Seems like many people are asking AI questions. The which one? Seems like many people are  asking the AI questions so… Oh yeah, questions that are appropriate for the  AI? Yes, you can please contact my associate at Muhammadan Way, the little guy all the way at the  bottom. Click on him, and he answers things very eloquently, very nice, mashAllah. Remember to put  a thumbs up if it was appropriate, the answer was nice, the response was good, and if it was off  and didn't seem like it was missing something, the guys need you to put the mark down. Don't  just because you don't like the answer, but if the answer you don't think was like complete,  that way they can go back and formulate and find out why it didn't answer or give the appropriate  response, inshaAllah. Allah (AJ) dress everyone, bless everyone, and Jum’ah (Friday)  Mubarak to everyone inshaAllah. Bi Hurmati Muhammad al-Mustafa  wa bi siri Surat al-Fatiha. Barakah shafa’at ya Rasulul Kareem, ameen. Anybody have a question, give me like a good basic question; Junaid open up the AI and  let’s see what it… and he’ll read the response. ‘How best to serve the Shaykh?’ Alhamdulillah, from the teachings of Mawlana Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi (Q)…. too,  too much writing here. It's still writing Sayyidi, one second. It's still going? It’s okay, it’s done. Alhamdulillah, from the teachings of Mawlana Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi (Q), serving  the shaykh is a noble and significant aspect of spiritual growth and Sufism. The shaykh represents  a link to the Divine presence and to Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Thus, serving him is a means to  draw near to Allah (AJ) and embody the prophetic character. To serve the shaykh one should: 1. Follow guidance – adhere to the teachings and guidance provided by the shaykh. Implement  his advice in your daily life and strive to embody the characteristics of good manners,  patience, humility, and sincerity that are taught within tariqah (spiritual path). 2. Support – Offer support to the shaykh's mission by participating in events, spreading  the knowledge you have gained responsibly, and contributing through service  and financial means if possible. 3. Maintain adab (manners) - respect.  Show utmost respect towards the shaykh by observing proper Islamic etiquette. This  includes being polite, not demanding his time unnecessarily, and understanding that he has  responsibility towards all his students. 4. Keep connection – stay connected with the  teachings of the shaykh through regular attendance of suhbah (discourse), gathering for spiritual  talks, participating in zikr circles if available, reading articles or books written by or about  him, and watching videos of his lectures. 5. Seek permission for services – before  engaging in any activity on behalf of the shaykh or using his content for any purpose,  seek explicit permission from him or through established channels within tariqah. 6. Financial support – if you are moved to offer financial assistance without  any feeling of regret or obligation, but purely out of love and sincerity after  reaching a state of spiritual maturity, this may be accepted as it aligns with the prophetic  tradition where companions offered their wealth sincerely after reaching a state of perfection. Remember that true service is not just about physical actions but also about purifying  one's intentions for Allah’s (AJ) sake and seeking His pleasure through your efforts.  Service to others is highly regarded as well; helping those in need can often be more  valuable than personal acts of worship.
