Should you Pause Meditation and Spiritual Practices when Travelling?

As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi
Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah.

From your blessed Timeless Realities Laylatul 
Qadr (Night of Power) is perpetual. How can

a student partake in the immense blessings 
our Shaykh is dressed with on the upcoming

27th of this holy month especially since it is 
also ‘Urs (anniversary of passing) of Mawlana

Shaykh Sharafuddin Daghestani (Q)?
Yeah, alhamdulillah, that every 27th is

a immense blessing and the immense 
blessings of Sultanul Awliya (king

of saints) Mawlana Shaykh Sharafuddin Daghestani 
(Q), Sultanul Awliya Mawlana Shaykh Abdullah Faiz

ad Daghestani (Q), Sultanul Awliya Shaykh Muhammad 
Nazim Adil Haqqani (Q) and the immensity of their

blessings, that's the power of the muraqabah 
(spiritual connection). That if we want what

the shaykhs have, then we connect with our 
heart and devoid ourself of ourself, is to

void ourself in everything. And in my connection 
with my shaykh, asking for madad (support) and

connecting, connecting that, ‘I'm nothing, I'm 
nothing’ so that wherever he's being dressed,

that I'm being dressed, so that I see myself in 
his jubba (robe) and just in his pocket. I see

myself as nothing and to be dressed with that. 
You know, I don't know how many years we've been

teaching the meditation and I think somebody 
had emailed about it, a person who probably

from beginning knows about this meditation, and 
they thought this meditation is only the time of

meditation. I said, ‘Well, didn't you read the 
books and all of the other procedures?’ That

our meditation is at every moment. When you come 
for association of prayers that before you pray,

you have to enter madad because you don't want 
you praying. You wanted to not be existing

because the greater is that you don't even 
want to exist, you want Prophet ﷺ praying,

but you're not there yet. So even in your salah 
(daily prayer) when you're praying at home or

coming to association, you're entering into 
madad that I'm nothing, asking for the madad

of my shaykh and you say, ‘Allahu Akbar (Allah 
is the Greatest)’, and you visualize the shaykh

is there and that I'm nothing and that the shaykh 
is behind Prophet ﷺ praying. That how many years

of hearing this, and they hear, but they don't 
really hear. Say, ‘Oh I was just doing for the

meditation time’. Say, ‘Why were you doing just 
for the meditation time?’ Our meditation time

is everything. Every salah it’s in meditation, 
every zikr (Divine remembrance) I attend to a

majlis (association), I don't want to be the one…
As salaamu alaykum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

As salaamu alaykum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
…doing the zikr, I want my shaykh to be in the

zikr. I want my shaykh to be in the knowledges 
and writing. I try to get rid of myself so I

don't want to be with myself at any time, not 
in my prayers, not in my zikr, not in anything

so that I can live a life of entering into the 
hudur (presence), into that love and into their

presence. Only by that presence and hudur can 
I gain a fana (annihilation). How do you become

fana if you prayed by yourself? So then where was 
Prophet ﷺ? Where was anyone? Then that just became

sort of a nafsani (egocentric) prayer. That ‘I 
want this, I want that, I'm going to pray this,

I'm going to pray that,’ and you probably 
thought you're alone with Allah (AJ) and

that's it. But that's not the teachings. The 
teaching is that when you enter into the prayer,

‘I’m with my Shaykh, I'm nothing’ and that I 
reach a nothingness and that ‘Shaykh that take

me to where you're going,’ and that we're 
behind Prophet ﷺ praying to Allah (AJ). And

when we get good at it, good at it, we enter 
into the fana, see nothing of myself and see

the dress of my shaykh right behind Prophet ﷺ 
until one day you can see yourself as not that,

not that and the shaykh says that, ‘Enter 
into my fana in which I see myself as nothing

and I see Prophet ﷺ praying’. So you weren't 
supposed to be there anywhere. So, you know,

you'd be surprised, 15 years of saying this 
and they didn't understand. So we have ears,

but we really don't hear. So when people 
hear us or in the video, say ‘this repeats

a lot,’ because you'd be surprised that after 
how many years of hearing something, people don't

really hear it. And that's the nafs (ego) and 
the zulumat and the oppression of the nafs and

how shaitan (satan) can play and block things 
from people. And they have selective hearing,

they hear what they like to hear. The rest, 
they don't, and they put aside, inshaAllah.

As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi
Walaykum as

salaam warahmatullah.
Just wanted to say thank you so much

for the amazing Shaykh AI. It is indescribable to 
be able to reach out to Shaykh AI. Whenever we are

feeling down or have a question the AI responds in 
a way that feels like we are interacting with our

beloved Sayyidi. It's an immense blessing. 
May Allah (AJ) protect you all, ameen.

Ameen! Allah (AJ) bless you. Alhamdulillah, it 
is a representation of that teaching. So, most

definitely, it is encompassing these knowledges 
and formulating answers based on the teaching. So,

it's you're interacting with the knowledge of the 
shaykh. So, alhamdulillah for the technology that

Allah (AJ) allowed us to use it in this way 
of da’wah (religious propagation) to go after

shaitans, because nobody could answer questions 
for people. You'd have to have full-time staff of

people typing and emailing. And just imagine this 
potential coming out now where it's still being

fed information. So, it's only in its infancy that 
there are other things that have to be fed into

it. And then it'll be able to access the email and 
reply to emails and access the app and reply into

the app. So, its potentials are just now sort of 
developing and opening. And until the time that,

you know, whatever dajjal (man of deceit) is 
opening, then alhamdulillah, Allah (AJ) is giving

permission for us to open too until the advent 
of Imam Mahdi (as) and we go right behind him

and wait until Imam Mahdi (as) appears and goes 
after him. But until then, we have to be very

active in this game, inshaAllah.
Jum’ah Mubarak Sayyidi.

Walaykum as salaam. Jum’ah Mubarak.
Thank you for the immense suhbah (discourse) and

haqqaiqs (realities) on the spiritual 
understanding of the heart, Sayyidi. Alhamdulillah

wa shukrulillah, we have been reading and 
rereading the article on the sound and five levels

for some time now. The suhbah helped us immensely 
and we're still trying to absorb the teachings.

Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah. It's good. The 
AI can help with that also in the realities of

the lataif (subtle energy points), the sound, the 
Flower of Life, the void, the fana—all of these

things are immense realities just to meditate 
and understand that how these senses and how

our opening of these senses and the importance 
of that. But, dunya (material world) becomes

busier and busier and people become less and 
less able to enjoy its benefits because they

find themself so busy with life, they don't 
have really too much time to engage in these

realities. So, inshaAllah a little bit of effort 
can go a long way in spirituality. Because it’s

the last days, Allah (AJ) is granting immense 
powers for those people who can put a little

bit of time aside and try to connect and try to 
make an understanding. And if you think you have

a question, it's right now at your fingertips. 
You go to the AI quickly and ask that question,

get some sort of an understanding from it, 
go back to your meditation. So many sort of

remedial tasks that somebody would have to try 
to wait and send out an email like, ‘I'm not sure

about should I be doing this, should I be doing 
that?’ Alhamdulillah, inshaAllah the AI can begin

to benefit people in that understanding. And 
it's not yet a resource in which can you say,

‘I want the Spanish article on this.’ It's not 
a indexing software, it's a software in which

ask the actual question; you can ask in any 
language you want and inshaAllah the replies

come back in your language and that that language 
can be shared. Imagine how much Spanish should be

shared—all of our Spanish-speaking people is go 
on board and type in Spanish and then put it out

in Spanish because the huge portion of the world 
is Spanish-speaking and moving quickly towards

Islam. And the last thing anyone wants is for 
them to fall off the abyss into the hands of

shaitan and the Dajjal and the Wahabi movement, 
is to get these people towards the love of Prophet

ﷺ because their nature is loving. The love they 
have for Sayyidina Isa (as), imagine if they added

Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ to that, means is immense, 
immense power in that. So, we have to reach to

these people in their languages. So we know I have 
a lot of Spanish-speaking students and they can

type in Spanish and type, you know, important 
things about love—love of the Prophet ﷺ, love

of Sayyidina Isa (as), love of Sayyidina Maryam 
(as) —and whatever we can think of and see how the

AI can formulate that in that language then make a 
nice picture or save the pictures we've put out of

a cover and post it, inshaAllah.
As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi.

Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah.
Please forgive our bad adab (manner) and

ignorance. From the teachings on sound 
and silence in the levels of the heart,

is Hu the zikr (chanting) at the 
Akhfa (most hidden) reality?

Hu at the Akhfa? I don't know. You have to get 
the book. Did the book say Hu was the zikr? You

have to ask the AI. But Hu is definitely very 
important, inshaAllah. So in this ocean of

nothingness, then all other zikrs they represent 
a different station. The zikr Hu is a vibration

and energy. So, the most powerful in the form of 
a breath of ‘Hu’ and we hear it in the beat of the

flow of blood, in the breath. So Hu is immensely 
powerful from the Akhfa realities, inshaAllah.

And that's why the meditation at the stage of 
connecting with the shaykh, asking to be in the

fana of the shaykh [breaths in] is just breathing 
of Hu, inhaling and exhaling Hu, inshaAllah.

As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi.
Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah.

Sayyidi we travel for work and family sometimes 
for weeks at a time and we don't know whether

to meditate in homes that aren't ours or to 
break our practices until we come back home.

No, you meditate everywhere you go except like 
on a bus or in a mall. So any house that you go,

you put your ta’weezes (prayers for protection) 
up anyways. Any room you stay in, you have to take

your ta’weezes with you. You put the laminated 
ta’weez on the windows, in the room. You need to

be protected in any room you go to and then sit 
and make your meditation. It's like saying that

you're not going to do your salah because you're 
traveling but you still have to do the salah. So

if you’re in salah, you still have to meditate. 
So you meditate and connect with the shaykh then

enter into your salah, enter into your zikr, enter 
into all your worshipness. The idea of not doing

it in public, was different. There's 500 people on 
a bus and as soon as you start to make your zikr,

you're going to carry and attract the attention 
of all their burdens. So that was the concept or

in a mall, in a busy mall, people with you know 
dunya desires. But in your own space, you have

to pray and wash and meditate and contemplate at 
all times. Never leave your practices, inshaAllah.

Hard to regain them if you do that.
As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi.

Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah.
In one of the earliest suhbah that we listen to,

it was mentioned that the student might get 
blisters in the mouth and the feeling of being

stretched like being tested. Currently 
experiencing this feeling. Requests for

prayers for patience and perseverance.
InshaAllah that if you heat up and the

energy is becoming very hot, then the mouth 
becomes very hot from this energy. So yeah,

you can put water near you with some ice 
cubes and drink something cold, and you know,

cool down the temperature within your mouth. And, 
inshaAllah, as you become sensitive to energy, you

may feel uncomfortable energies, but again, keep 
the madad and keep the connection with the shaykh,

inshaAllah, and it will pass, inshaAllah.
As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi.

Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah.
On the teachings of using salt to remove

bad energies, what's the reality of the ocean 
being salty, and does it also clean energies and

ocean reality spirituality to be the tariqahs?
Hm, no idea. But anything with salt takes away

negative energy. So I would imagine that immense 
amounts of negative energy are deposited within

the oceans and the salt oceans that carry these 
burdens because salt by its nature is a cleansing.

But water in general is a angelic reality, and 
the placing of burdens and this dunya’s burdens

go to the water, and the angels will lift up the 
difficulties. So water plays an immense role in

our spirituality and our spiritual practices, 
inshaAllah. And salt plays an immense role in

cleansing and understanding of how to cleanse and 
putting salt in the mouth to take away bad energy

in the morning before you eat. At all the... it's 
a sunnah (tradition) of Prophet ﷺ to cleanse one's

mouth with salt. Putting salt upon the food to 
take away negative energy and so alhamdulillah,

we have a whole section, I think in the 
meditation book on salt. And I would

imagine now the books are loaded on to the AI, 
so you can ask that question to the AI and say,

‘What's the importance of salt?’ And you expand 
upon it and ‘How should it be used in my daily

practices?’ InshaAllah, let's see if it pulled 
out the from the book and from the website the

necessary information, inshaAllah.
As salaamu alaykum Sayyidi.

Walaykum as salaam warahmatullah.
Is it okay for someone to day trade

crypto? I apologize for the question I'm just 
interested in it and the extra way to make

income without having to interact with people.
Yeah, like anything else, you have to be careful

in how you think. I think many people have asked 
that, maybe that's also on our AI if all those

articles are loaded into the website. So our guys 
who are doing that, inshaAllah, there all these

questions and answers and all of this information 
has been put in there. I think Arsalan has to send

us the transcripts of all the new questions and 
answers, or whoever is keeping the transcript,

so that they can load that into the AI also, so 
that it'll have all of these already questioned

and answered responses. But anything we do for 
our rizq and sustenance, just try to make sure

that it's not gambling and that you're not putting 
at risk your money because investing is different

than speculating and gambling. And if you 
gamble with amounts of money that could endanger

yourself, your family, your ability to pay rent, 
and to eat. So investing in something and say,

‘I'm going to buy Bitcoin and I'm going to put it 
aside and not touch it,’ so then there are people

whom, you know, they take it as an investment, 
and you know, investments can be good and bad or

indifferent. But to actively trade and speculate 
too much and the level of danger is too high, then

it becomes a source of agitation and aggravation 
to the heart similar to that of gambling. You know

the gamblers are happy when they're rolling good 
and they're very sad when everything's bad. So,

and if that's going to happen on a daily basis 
up and down, up and down, then it's not so much

an investment anymore. It's just more like a sort 
of gambling at it. So I would go with precaution

inshaAllah so that you don't lose your livelihood 
and the any money that Allah (AJ) has sent to you,

inshaAllah. InshaAllah.
