Enter the Loaded Ships of Energy - Souls of Powerful Vibrations - Surah Ya Sin 36:41

  • 0:10 - 0:21
    A reminder for myself before we start the
    talk somebody had emailed that question that,
  • 0:21 - 0:30
    ‘For my understanding, am I to understand
    that we can't get anywhere without the shaykh?’
  • 0:30 - 0:31
    And astaghfirullah, no.
  • 0:31 - 0:36
    That's completely incorrect understanding.
  • 0:36 - 0:42
    You can do many things on your own and everyone
    is capable and we're talking about the rule
  • 0:42 - 0:44
    and not the exception.
  • 0:44 - 0:49
    In dealing with Allah (AJ) can do anything
    Allah (AJ) wants to do.
  • 0:49 - 0:50
    No one can limit that.
  • 0:50 - 0:59
    But the rule is if you want to be a doctor,
    you study medicine and you study medicine
  • 0:59 - 1:05
    from a doctor, not from a mechanic.
  • 1:05 - 1:11
    And if you want to learn about being a mechanic,
    you study from a mechanic.
  • 1:11 - 1:15
    It's not something you pick up in a book - being
    a doctor.
  • 1:15 - 1:18
    So, it requires studying.
  • 1:18 - 1:22
    So, we understand that in dunya (material
    world) and it seems to be very well understood
  • 1:22 - 1:24
    in dunya.
  • 1:24 - 1:27
    Nobody has conflict in their mind and shaitan
    (satan) doesn't play with them.
  • 1:27 - 1:33
    Shaitan actually encourages them, ‘Oh you
    know go after your dunya and be a big doctor
  • 1:33 - 1:40
    and go to this university,’ and without
    a doubt they quickly enroll, find the best
  • 1:40 - 1:45
    professors, which university puts out the
    best medical degree so that one day you can
  • 1:45 - 1:50
    capitalize on that degree and people will
    come to you.
  • 1:50 - 1:52
    That's a given.
  • 1:52 - 1:59
    So, it must be understood and make commonsense
    that do you think the way to Allah (AJ) is
  • 1:59 - 2:02
    easier or harder?
  • 2:02 - 2:09
    And the tricks of the nafs (ego) and the self
    and is that something that can be done alone
  • 2:09 - 2:11
    by a person?
  • 2:11 - 2:13
    “Wa kono ma’as sadiqeen”.
  • 2:13 - 2:19
    When Allah (AJ)... that's why when we teach,
    if you write what we teach and then you go
  • 2:19 - 2:25
    back later and the article comes out and you
    take the article, print it and study it, it
  • 2:25 - 2:30
    gives the entire reference to the Qur'an,
    quotes the Qur'an, quotes the Hadith so that
  • 2:30 - 2:34
    you understand and you understand how the
    Qur'an is teaching us.
  • 2:34 - 2:41
    That we’re not making just khater and thoughts
    and putting thoughts together but Allah (AJ)
  • 2:41 - 2:49
    inspiring to the heart of Prophet ﷺ and
    Prophet ﷺ inspiring to his guides and they
  • 2:49 - 2:52
    inspire to their students.
  • 2:52 - 2:56
    That the Qur'an, Holy Qur'an is a guidance
    for mankind.
  • 2:56 - 2:58
    “Hudanal muttaqeen”.
  • 2:58 - 3:01
    As salaamu alaykum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
  • 3:01 - 3:03
    It’s Shaykh Nurjan.
  • 3:03 - 3:06

    Chicago, Los Angeles, Pakistan and many programs

    that reach thousands of people and rescue

  • 3:44 - 3:46
    Every bit counts.
  • 3:46 - 3:52
    As salaamu alaykum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
  • 3:52 - 3:55
    And when Allah (AJ), “A’uzu Billahir Minash
    Shaitanir Rajeem.
  • 3:55 - 3:56
    Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem.
  • 3:56 - 3:58
    Ittaqollah wa allimukumullah.
  • 3:58 - 4:02
    Ittaqollah wa kono ma’as sadiqeen”.
  • 4:02 - 4:09
    That everything has to do with a taqwa and
    consciousness and Allah (AJ) throughout Qur'an
  • 4:09 - 4:13
    is asking, ‘Accompany truthful servants.’
  • 4:13 - 4:20
    Not that they say they’re truthful but truthful
    through their deeds and their actions.
  • 4:20 - 4:26
    We said before the proof is in the pudding.
  • 4:26 - 4:31
    That your faith in action, their deeds and
    actions are truthful, their Maqamul Ihsan
  • 4:31 - 4:35
    (Station of Moral Excellence) should speak
    for itself.
  • 4:35 - 4:42
    They don't have to show their degree to anyone
    and they don't have to validate themselves
  • 4:42 - 4:48
    but the proof is what's coming out from their
    knowledges and from actions.
  • 4:48 - 4:55
    As a result, that becomes a university and
    that becomes then a Shaykh I want to accompany
  • 4:55 - 4:59
    because of the knowledges and the actions
    that I see.
  • 4:59 - 5:06
    Those knowledges, I want them so I will enroll
    with him.
  • 5:06 - 5:16
    Those actions, I also want to activate within
    my life, I want the love of Prophet ﷺ, I
  • 5:16 - 5:24
    want to follow them, I want to look like the
    love of Prophet ﷺ, I want the knowledges
  • 5:24 - 5:32
    of the love of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ and
    I follow them.
  • 5:32 - 5:35
    And that becomes the university of the heavens.
  • 5:35 - 5:40
    Now can you do that by yourself?
  • 5:40 - 5:41
    That's exception.
  • 5:41 - 5:47
    There are people whom Allah (AJ) are murad
    (the one whom is sought), Allah (AJ) calls
  • 5:47 - 5:52
    them, guides them, dresses them however Allah
    (AJ) wants to.
  • 5:52 - 5:59
    And the common is mureed (devoted disciple)
    in which Allah (AJ) wants the student to reach
  • 5:59 - 6:01
    these realities.
  • 6:01 - 6:09
    It's not kindergarten so it won't be in every
    masjid, it's very advanced realities so they
  • 6:09 - 6:12
    require advanced teachers.
  • 6:12 - 6:19
    Not the teacher of a book because you have
    external teaching and internal teaching.
  • 6:19 - 6:23
    Somebody asked on another email: ‘What is
    the zahiri (external understanding) mean?’
  • 6:23 - 6:26
    Exactly what it says – external teachers.
  • 6:26 - 6:31
    Means they read the shari’ah (Divine law),
    they read the Hadith and they teach that.
  • 6:31 - 6:38
    They are the translators of Arabic to English
    or Urdu or any other language.
  • 6:38 - 6:42
    They don't teach about its reality.
  • 6:42 - 6:50
    And somebody posted a Hadith of Imam Ali (as)
    that in the time of his being the khalifa
  • 6:50 - 6:57
    (representative) he went around to all the
    masjids to hear who was teaching what and
  • 6:57 - 7:01
    after he went from every masjid hearing what
    they teach, what they teach, he shut them
  • 7:01 - 7:08
    all down except for two and he said, ‘Those
    they don't know what even they're saying,
  • 7:08 - 7:16
    they're basically repeating back what they
    read but these two they know the reality of
  • 7:16 - 7:18
    what they're saying.
  • 7:18 - 7:22
    Is best that you sit with them’.
  • 7:22 - 7:30
    Means the external scholar is one whom well-read
    but doesn't necessarily know the reality and
  • 7:30 - 7:37
    the depth of what's being said but he can
    tell you all of its verses and footnotes and
  • 7:37 - 7:42
    who said to who said to who said to who said,
    but it doesn't mean he has any knowledge of
  • 7:42 - 7:48
    what was being said and the reality and the
    substance of what was being said.
  • 7:48 - 7:54
    So, those are external scholars and those
    whom their hearts are attracted to that, they
  • 7:54 - 7:55
    move towards that.
  • 7:55 - 7:56
    They don't want inner realities.
  • 7:56 - 8:04
    They want to memorize the isnad and the Chain
    of Authorities and that's appealing to them
  • 8:04 - 8:07
    and their heart is drawn to that.
  • 8:07 - 8:12
    But again someone who wants to reach to realities,
    it's commonsense how are they going to reach
  • 8:12 - 8:16
    their own – on their own?
  • 8:16 - 8:22
    So then they enlist into a school and a shaykh
    and say, ‘I want the shaykh from what he's
  • 8:22 - 8:24
    teaching’.
  • 8:24 - 8:31
    So you go to find the doctor whom you feel
    is the most credible doctor with the realities
  • 8:31 - 8:33
    that you want.
  • 8:33 - 8:41
    And as a result, you accompany him and you
    learn from him his realities and from the
  • 8:41 - 8:46
    realities he teaches, he teaches a way in
    which to achieve it because that's how he
  • 8:46 - 8:47
    achieved it.
  • 8:47 - 8:52
    But it... can it be something done on our
    own?
  • 8:52 - 8:57
    No, these are called ‘Upliftings.’
  • 8:57 - 9:03
    That these realities, this accompanying a
    guide, loving them, opening your heart to
  • 9:03 - 9:11
    that reality, supporting them, living a life
    of khidmat (service), everything that been
  • 9:11 - 9:19
    described, documenting the knowledges, documenting
    the realities, it's a ‘Uplifting’ because
  • 9:19 - 9:27
    your soul will lock onto their soul through
    the good manners and good character.
  • 9:27 - 9:35
    And as a result of that locking, their soul
    is uplifting the students because the soul
  • 9:35 - 9:39
    is in a continuous mi'raj (ascension).
  • 9:39 - 9:44
    And Allah (AJ) describes them because these
    are all from the realities of the heart, these
  • 9:44 - 9:48
    come from Surat Al-YaSeen, “Fulkil mashhoon.
  • 9:48 - 9:54
    Wa hamalna dhurriyyatahum fil fulkil mashhoon”.
  • 9:54 - 9:57
    That their souls are like loaded ships, loaded.
  • 9:57 - 10:03
    “Mashhoon” – like energies Mawlana (Q)
    would describe.
  • 10:03 - 10:11
    And “Hamalna” they carry within their
    loaded energies the souls of those whom come
  • 10:11 - 10:17
    into their company because the soul is not
    a stagnant creature.
  • 10:17 - 10:19
    It doesn't just sit there.
  • 10:19 - 10:27
    It's an energy, a vibration that is in a continuous
    flux of movement and energy.
  • 10:27 - 10:32
    The only thing that just sits there is that
    which came from dunya – your physicality.
  • 10:32 - 10:34
    Right?
  • 10:34 - 10:40
    Your physicality is of a dunya material matter
    but your spirituality and your soul is in
  • 10:40 - 10:43
    a continuous movement and wave.
  • 10:43 - 10:47
    Its beginning and its end is not understood.
  • 10:47 - 10:53
    Where your light is coming, how much of it's
    connected and to where is it connected.
  • 10:53 - 11:01
    And those whom operate from the realm of light
    in which Allah (AJ) open their light and they
  • 11:01 - 11:08
    have a governance over their light, they use
    and operate their being with their light,
  • 11:08 - 11:11
    they are like ships.
  • 11:11 - 11:17
    Anyone who comes into their vicinity, immediately
    comes on board.
  • 11:17 - 11:22
    Those whom lock on with their heart, with
    their deeds and with their actions, because
  • 11:22 - 11:26
    this is how Allah (AJ) wants His servant.
  • 11:26 - 11:30
    “Wa kono ma’as sadiqeen”.
  • 11:30 - 11:35
    So he's teaching the student – you have
    to also be sadiqeen (truthful) as you're requiring
  • 11:35 - 11:38
    the shaykh to be because you're looking for
    sadiqeen.
  • 11:38 - 11:39
    Right?
  • 11:39 - 11:45
    You're looking for a shaykh who has knowledges
    of realities and the actions of realities,
  • 11:45 - 11:49
    all the deeds and everything that they're
    doing is by their deeds and their actions
  • 11:49 - 11:57
    are matching the Muhammadan haqqaiqs (realities)
    then they train, ‘You come on their ship
  • 11:57 - 11:59
    and you act the same’.
  • 11:59 - 12:01
    That's why they tell you contribute.
  • 12:01 - 12:08
    Don't, don't just think you're going to take
    it and take the realities and one day run
  • 12:08 - 12:09
    away.
  • 12:09 - 12:11
    But be a truthful servant.
  • 12:11 - 12:20
    What you took, you owe, of the realities you
    owe and of all of these stations Allah (AJ)
  • 12:20 - 12:25
    is granting, Prophet ﷺ wants for us a khidmat.
  • 12:25 - 12:28
    ‘Go now and serve humanity’.
  • 12:28 - 12:34
    That show your loyalty, put everything of
    your faith within action.
  • 12:34 - 12:36
    It's not something that I keep hidden.
  • 12:36 - 12:40
    My faith is something that I continuously
    put into action.
  • 12:40 - 12:46
    So means then the students of the shaykh they're
    continuously showing their faith, showing
  • 12:46 - 12:52
    their love, showing their respect and showing
    their khidmat and service.
  • 12:52 - 12:53
    Why?
  • 12:53 - 12:57
    Because they're truthful in their deeds and
    in their actions.
  • 12:57 - 13:02
    They're not hidden silent people, we don't
    even know what they believe because their
  • 13:02 - 13:04
    deeds are not known to anyone.
  • 13:04 - 13:11
    These deeds have to be known, the love has
    to be shown and the actions and the khidmat
  • 13:11 - 13:17
    has to be visible to the help and to the benefit
    of people.
  • 13:17 - 13:24
    And as a result, that becomes the tariqah
    (spiritual path) in which - I want to accompany
  • 13:24 - 13:25
    them.
  • 13:25 - 13:29
    The realities they have they're not regular
    teachings.
  • 13:29 - 13:34
    And as a result of accompanying them, loving
    them, being of service in the ways that they've
  • 13:34 - 13:43
    taught, my soul is locked on with them and
    wherever they go, they take me with them because
  • 13:43 - 13:50
    a ship doesn't throw its passengers off every
    time it goes into a beatific location.
  • 13:50 - 13:55
    Means as the ship is moving through these
    tajallis (manifestations), everyone on board
  • 13:55 - 14:01
    is being dressed by those tajallis and that
    becomes the beatific dress and the faiz (downpouring
  • 14:01 - 14:06
    blessings) that people talk about and emanations
    that Sufis are known for.
  • 14:06 - 14:13
    Means that as they're being dressed, everyone
    on their ship will be dressed by its realities.
  • 14:13 - 14:21
    So we want a ship that talks and teaches about
    immense ishq and love for Sayyidina Muhammad
  • 14:21 - 14:25
    ﷺ because those are the tajallis we want.
  • 14:25 - 14:31
    If you're interested in a ship that talks
    about fire and then you find that type of
  • 14:31 - 14:36
    ship and when it goes through that fire, you
    can feel the burning of jahannam (hellfire)
  • 14:36 - 14:40
    and if that's pleasurable for you then best
    of luck.
  • 14:40 - 14:46
    Means that which you are attracted to then
    you look to board that ship.
  • 14:46 - 14:50
    And as a result, to be dressed and to be blessed
    by it.
  • 14:50 - 14:57
    Alhamdulillah for the month of Hajj (pilgrimage)
    and the immense realities.
  • 14:57 - 15:04
    At the beginning phase, the student reads
    Surat Al-Yusuf because now we come to the
  • 15:04 - 15:13
    12th month which is our pilgrimage and completion
    of this journey but not an end because every
  • 15:13 - 15:14
    journey is a circle.
  • 15:14 - 15:22
    At one point, one point it stops and then
    it continues on an infinite rotation and that
  • 15:22 - 15:26
    becomes the opening of Muharram.
  • 15:26 - 15:34
    But the beginning journey it’s understood
    by Surat Al-Yusuf in which Allah (AJ) gives
  • 15:34 - 15:40
    to awliyaullah (saints) and to everyone that,
    ‘This is a beatific surah (chapter)’.
  • 15:40 - 15:45
    Now this because these knowledges come to
    the heart of awliyaullah, they're describing
  • 15:45 - 15:53
    for us that its beauty and the reality why
    Allah (AJ) is saying that, ‘This is a beatific
  • 15:53 - 15:58
    story, this is a beautiful story.’
  • 15:58 - 16:06
    Because the people of ma’rifah (Gnosticism)
    know that the dress of the 12th month is the
  • 16:06 - 16:07
    pilgrimage.
  • 16:07 - 16:15
    And what Allah (AJ) wants for His servant
    is that every year you’re a pilgrim and
  • 16:15 - 16:21
    every year you are in a continuous movement
    towards Divinely Presence.
  • 16:21 - 16:24
    Otherwise, you have no purpose on this Earth.
  • 16:24 - 16:32
    If your purpose on Earth was to eat, drink
    and use the facilities, it's a wasted creation.
  • 16:32 - 16:40
    And what Allah (AJ) wanted for this creation
    was to reach towards beatific realities.
  • 16:40 - 16:48
    So the entry level, beginning level and those
    whom are coming new then read Surat Al-Yusuf
  • 16:48 - 16:54
    and describes how Allah (AJ) says, ‘This
    is a beatific story we're about to tell you’.
  • 16:54 - 16:55
    Why?
  • 16:55 - 17:02
    Because Allah (AJ) wants the beatific dress
    of Sayyidina Yusuf (as) upon the servant.
  • 17:02 - 17:08
    And the only way to achieve this beatific
    dress are through the turuqs (spiritual paths)
  • 17:08 - 17:09
    and tariqahs.
  • 17:09 - 17:10
    Why?
  • 17:10 - 17:15
    Because they are the paths of the Muhammadan
    light.
  • 17:15 - 17:20
    They're not kindergarten, they're not regular
    classes.
  • 17:20 - 17:28
    These are for the khawas (elite) and the souls
    in which Allah (AJ) has destined for them
  • 17:28 - 17:29
    to reach to realities.
  • 17:29 - 17:33
    That's why we said in the beginning – if
    they don't have that interest, they're not
  • 17:33 - 17:35
    interested at all.
  • 17:35 - 17:38
    Means Allah (AJ) didn't put that interest
    within them.
  • 17:38 - 17:40
    It's not their cleverness.
  • 17:40 - 17:47
    It's when Allah (AJ) loves that servant and
    wants them to achieve these beatific realities,
  • 17:47 - 17:50
    Allah (AJ) has to put that desire within.
  • 17:50 - 17:55
    We say even, ‘Hayya ‘alas Salah (Hasten
    to the prayer), Hayya ‘alas Salah, Hayya
  • 17:55 - 17:58
    ‘alal Falah (Hasten to Salvation), Hayya
    ‘alal Falah, laa hawla wa la quwwata illa
  • 17:58 - 17:59
    billah’.
  • 17:59 - 18:05
    Means even for prayer you have no power and
    might or help to even get up and pray if Allah
  • 18:05 - 18:07
    (AJ) doesn't want you to pray.
  • 18:07 - 18:10
    You can hear the ‘azaan (call to prayer)
    all day long and people don't even move, they
  • 18:10 - 18:12
    don't even feel like they have to move.
  • 18:12 - 18:18
    Hawla (support) and quwwah (power) have to
    reach to the servant.
  • 18:18 - 18:25
    That the help and power has to come from Allah
    (AJ) that, ‘I want you to pray to Me,’
  • 18:25 - 18:32
    and they’re “Sam’ina wa ata’na”
    and the soul's command overrides the sickness
  • 18:32 - 18:37
    of the nafs (ego) and commands the being to
    go and to pray.
  • 18:37 - 18:46
    So means everything we do is by the grace
    of Allah (AJ) Almighty.
  • 18:46 - 18:55
    To reach the beatific dress of Sayyidina Yusuf
    (as) then we read Surat Al-Yusuf and understand
  • 18:55 - 19:00
    what makes the servant to be so beatific in
    Allah's (AJ) eyes.
  • 19:00 - 19:10
    In which the understanding of the women that
    were chasing Sayyidina Yusuf (as) means ‘Dunya’
  • 19:10 - 19:16
    in which the dress of the servant becomes
    so beatific upon them that all of dunya will
  • 19:16 - 19:21
    cut itself to give to that reality.
  • 19:21 - 19:24
    And that's what Allah (AJ) wants for the servant.
  • 19:24 - 19:30
    Is to take a beatific dress, take these dress
    of realities and lights.
  • 19:30 - 19:37
    And as a result, your path upon dunya was
    a means in which to achieve beatific lights
  • 19:37 - 19:40
    for your akhirah (hereafter) destination.
  • 19:40 - 19:45
    Your path on dunya was not your path on dunya
    where you thought, ‘Oh it's just going to
  • 19:45 - 19:50
    be my... whatever I want to do for dunya is
    dunya and akhirah is separate.
  • 19:50 - 19:52
    Church and state are separate’.
  • 19:52 - 19:54
    Allah (AJ): no.
  • 19:54 - 20:01
    He want for us that, ‘Use your dunya to
    achieve your lofty stations in paradise,’
  • 20:01 - 20:06
    and Surah Yusuf represents that reality.
  • 20:06 - 20:17
    That given a dream, is a Prophet (as) with
    11 Brothers whom are very high stations, we
  • 20:17 - 20:21
    believe them to be the Prophets (as) of Bani
    Israel (children of Israel) and the 12 tribes
  • 20:21 - 20:31
    of Bani Israel and he relates to his father
    who is a Prophet (as) that, ‘I see the 11
  • 20:31 - 20:40
    planets, the sun and the moon bowing down
    for me,’ and telling that, ‘Don't tell
  • 20:40 - 20:44
    your brothers that what you've seen of your
    dream’.
  • 20:44 - 20:50
    Means that the seeker, every step of this
    ayatul kareem (the generous verse of Holy
  • 20:50 - 20:55
    Qur’an) and Qur'an, this holy surah (chapter)
    is a description for the path.
  • 20:55 - 21:02
    That this path that you're going to partake
    on it’s not going to be similar to anyone
  • 21:02 - 21:04
    in your family.
  • 21:04 - 21:08
    No matter what the darajat (station) of your
    father or your brother or anyone in your family.
  • 21:08 - 21:12
    Many come and say, ‘My father is such and
    such.
  • 21:12 - 21:17
    Oh my family are all Chishtiya and all this
    and all that’.
  • 21:17 - 21:23
    And Allah (AJ) give into the surah first when
    you come through the door, they don't care
  • 21:23 - 21:25
    what you think your station is.
  • 21:25 - 21:31
    Your station may be uniquely different than
    your father's and that became the reality
  • 21:31 - 21:33
    for Sayyidina Yusuf (as).
  • 21:33 - 21:41
    The whole path of dealing with jealousy from
    the brotherhood, not from outside people.
  • 21:41 - 21:49
    The brotherhood and its jealousy that when
    they saw the beatific light upon Sayyidina
  • 21:49 - 21:57
    Yusuf (as), they became jealous of that and
    the danger of jealousy we described in nights
  • 21:57 - 22:06
    before, before we left for the beginning of
    the month that jealousy is the greatest danger
  • 22:06 - 22:12
    on the way of tariqah because it blocks every
    miracle.
  • 22:12 - 22:19
    When someone has a jealousy within their heart,
    immediately the miracles begin to be blocked
  • 22:19 - 22:24
    and they see nothing of the path, they see
    nothing of its signs.
  • 22:24 - 22:30
    And Allah (AJ) gives the beginning of the
    surah as a whole understanding for service.
  • 22:30 - 22:38
    Means that read it very slow and meditate
    on each verse that Allah (AJ) is giving.
  • 22:38 - 22:43
    He’s starting with a description of a very
    high station.
  • 22:43 - 22:52
    Can there be a servant in which the sun and
    the moon and all 11 planets are bowing to
  • 22:52 - 22:54
    him?
  • 22:54 - 23:00
    One – means that are their servants that
    have an immense authority in Allah's (AJ)
  • 23:00 - 23:03
    Presence in which Allah (AJ) is describing,
    ‘This is a beautiful surah,’ drawing our
  • 23:03 - 23:11
    attention and then starting it with the dream
    of Sayyidina Yusuf (as) that, ‘The sun and
  • 23:11 - 23:18
    the moon under my command and 11 planets making
    sujood (prostration) and bowing to me’.
  • 23:18 - 23:24
    One – establishing this path and this beatific
    reality is very high.
  • 23:24 - 23:28
    Its potential is very high.
  • 23:28 - 23:34
    And as a result of its immense realities,
    it’s based on manners.
  • 23:34 - 23:39
    How can you reach any of these on your own?
  • 23:39 - 23:42
    It's not!
  • 23:42 - 23:46
    Can you achieve it as an inheritance from
    your father?
  • 23:46 - 23:47
    No.
  • 23:47 - 23:54
    Sayyidina Yaqub (as) was not able to give
    his secret to Sayyidina Yusuf (as) because
  • 23:54 - 24:00
    Sayyidina Yusuf (as) had a completely different
    reality to achieve.
  • 24:00 - 24:07
    So this lofty station and the first danger
    of this path is jealousy.
  • 24:07 - 24:13
    That what you're about to embark on, even
    your brothers if they hear it, they're going
  • 24:13 - 24:15
    to try to harm you.
  • 24:15 - 24:20
    So, then everyone sitting at home wondering,
    ‘Should I tell my cousin?
  • 24:20 - 24:22
    Should I tell my this, should I tell my story?’
  • 24:22 - 24:29
    No, don't tell your dreams, don't tell your
    path, don't tell what you think you've achieved
  • 24:29 - 24:35
    and what abilities you're beginning to have
    within your heart because Allah (AJ) is giving
  • 24:35 - 24:41
    a warning that those whom closest to you if
    they become jealous, they can begin to try
  • 24:41 - 24:42
    to harm you.
  • 24:42 - 24:47
    This is a Prophet (as) of Allah (AJ) and what
    the brothers did?
  • 24:47 - 24:51
    They threw him in a well.
  • 24:51 - 24:55
    We're going to go fast through the surah because
    we’re for many years we're going over this,
  • 24:55 - 24:56
    at this reality.
  • 24:56 - 25:02
    We will go fastly through it so to encapsulate
    its understanding.
  • 25:02 - 25:07
    So Sayyidina Yusuf (as) is thrown into a well.
  • 25:07 - 25:14
    One – you're now going to be thrown into
    a well when you enter in the tariqah.
  • 25:14 - 25:20
    So, first say the shaykh, ‘Oh all my friends
    they left me, all the people I knew they don't
  • 25:20 - 25:27
    want to talk to me, even relatives and close
    associates have all gone,’ and this is your
  • 25:27 - 25:29
    well.
  • 25:29 - 25:32
    Everyone on this path has a well.
  • 25:32 - 25:37
    The life they knew before and they think,
    ‘Oh I don't know why I'm on this path?
  • 25:37 - 25:45
    And as soon as I got on this path I lost all
    these things, I lost the connection to everything’.
  • 25:45 - 25:51
    Many people have immense sacrifices and they
    question all the time in their mind, ‘Was
  • 25:51 - 25:54
    it... was it correct to choose that?’
  • 25:54 - 26:03
    And Allah (AJ) is showing, if Allah (AJ) chooses
    you, He isolates you and that's your sign.
  • 26:03 - 26:11
    Isolation means you're in your own chaah - your
    own well.
  • 26:11 - 26:18
    It's the very isolation that, that opens the
    door to the path of the way because the greatest
  • 26:18 - 26:20
    danger are people.
  • 26:20 - 26:27
    You know the people around you they don't
    just say, ‘Oh you're embarking on a spiritual
  • 26:27 - 26:29
    path, great.
  • 26:29 - 26:31
    How can I help you?’
  • 26:31 - 26:35
    They'll take you down in a second and say,
    ‘Are you crazy?
  • 26:35 - 26:37
    Why would you want to do these things?
  • 26:37 - 26:38
    Why, what's going on?
  • 26:38 - 26:40
    Come with us to where we're going, come.
  • 26:40 - 26:43
    We usually always go here, we go there’.
  • 26:43 - 26:50
    So Allah (AJ) is giving to us all those whom
    are coming new and understanding, Allah (AJ)
  • 26:50 - 26:57
    is giving to us: no He has to isolate the
    servant and the isolation is forced upon the
  • 26:57 - 26:59
    servant this time.
  • 26:59 - 27:02
    Later Sayyidina Yusuf (as) will ask for isolation.
  • 27:02 - 27:09
    This isolation, Allah (AJ) takes and throws
    the servant in a condition in which to isolate
  • 27:09 - 27:12
    them.
  • 27:12 - 27:24
    And as a result of being isolated, he is distressed
    and a trading caravan begins to approach.
  • 27:24 - 27:31
    And as a result, this caravan looked into
    the well and said, ‘Oh look there's a servant
  • 27:31 - 27:32
    in here.
  • 27:32 - 27:41
    Maybe we take him and it will be a blessing
    for us or some money for us,’ and they brought
  • 27:41 - 27:45
    him out and enslaved him.
  • 27:45 - 27:49
    Meaning what?
  • 27:49 - 27:54
    Your free will will be taken away.
  • 27:54 - 28:03
    If you're trying to use your will in tariqah
    then how are you really going to be ‘asir
  • 28:03 - 28:05
    (captive)?
  • 28:05 - 28:07
    Right?
  • 28:07 - 28:11
    To achieve these beatific lights Allah (AJ)
    isolates you.
  • 28:11 - 28:18
    Then He says that, ‘You're not going to
    be so isolated because guides are coming’.
  • 28:18 - 28:26
    They're going to come and pull you out but
    they're going to teach you because it's voluntary
  • 28:26 - 28:35
    that to lose your will, lose your concept
    and your mind of always trying to think what
  • 28:35 - 28:38
    your path is going to be.
  • 28:38 - 28:46
    Try to be ‘asir in which you're a ‘Captive,’
    you've been ‘Captivated’ by Allah's (AJ)
  • 28:46 - 28:47
    Divinely love.
  • 28:47 - 28:49
    Think of it in a nice way.
  • 28:49 - 28:55
    That, ‘Ya Rabbi all my life I've been choosing
    and they all seem to be wrong.
  • 28:55 - 29:03
    So I surrender myself to your will,’ and
    this is what taslim (submission) and Islam
  • 29:03 - 29:11
    mean – is surrendering our will to the Will
    of Allah (AJ) to reach these immense realities
  • 29:11 - 29:13
    and immense lights.
  • 29:13 - 29:21
    As a result of that, they understood when
    this caravan comes in our life, the very caravan
  • 29:21 - 29:28
    and the tariqah that we enter, the shaykh
    that we draw near to, it's like a rope that
  • 29:28 - 29:29
    been tied to us.
  • 29:29 - 29:37
    Allah (AJ) has destined, ‘This Shaykh will
    take you now out of that darkness and into
  • 29:37 - 29:40
    the light and to the path of light’.
  • 29:40 - 29:49
    And as a result, the caravan is taking Sayyidina
    Yusuf (as) to Malik ul Aziz (The Almighty
  • 29:49 - 29:55
    King), to a kingdom, to a king, a noble king.
  • 29:55 - 29:56
    Why?
  • 29:56 - 30:01
    Because this is a path towards the heavenly
    kingdom of Allah (AJ).
  • 30:01 - 30:09
    ‘Aziz (The All Mighty) and why Malik ul
    Aziz because the sifat (attribute) of ‘Aziz
  • 30:09 - 30:14
    means that nothing can be taken from it.
  • 30:14 - 30:21
    When Allah (AJ) decrees upon a servant whatever
    He decrees to come upon that servant under
  • 30:21 - 30:23
    sifat al-’Aziz nobody can stop it.
  • 30:23 - 30:29
    And whatever Allah (AJ) wants to withhold
    from the servant, nobody can stop it or bring
  • 30:29 - 30:31
    to it.
  • 30:31 - 30:38
    Means that name alone is very important in
    that reality and that that king means that
  • 30:38 - 30:45
    they're bringing this caravan and this servant
    to the heavenly kingdom because everything
  • 30:45 - 30:52
    is an analogy to reach to these realities
    because every surah is alive right now.
  • 30:52 - 30:56
    We don't read it like a story for the past,
    it's right now.
  • 30:56 - 30:59
    What does Allah (AJ) want from us?
  • 30:59 - 31:03
    That we're going to be isolated in life and
    every choice you made that you feel that you're
  • 31:03 - 31:08
    isolated because of those choices – that
    was the right choice.
  • 31:08 - 31:12
    It's only through isolation that you can reach
    to the reality.
  • 31:12 - 31:19
    And when the caravan came and it took you
    and it traded you without your will and your
  • 31:19 - 31:25
    whole path now is based on surrendering your
    will, surrendering your will.
  • 31:25 - 31:32
    ‘I know not what you want from me my Lord
    but I submit to You entirely of myself’.
  • 31:32 - 31:38
    And admit that you don't know what Allah (AJ)
    wants and as a result of not knowing what
  • 31:38 - 31:42
    Allah (AJ) wants, you become taslim and submit,
    submit.
  • 31:42 - 31:44
    ‘Ya Rabbi I'm submitting.
  • 31:44 - 31:47
    Only You know what You want for me and I know
    not.
  • 31:47 - 31:51
    I know that when I want something, it's most
    likely incorrect.
  • 31:51 - 31:59
    But what You want for me is the best,’ and
    their whole struggle in life becomes that
  • 31:59 - 32:05
    submission and their submission of their will
    to the Will of Allah (AJ) and to enter into
  • 32:05 - 32:12
    the kingdom of Sayyidina Malik ul Aziz – the
    kingdom of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ.
  • 32:12 - 32:19
    That is our life goal is to enter into that
    kingdom and to enter into the kingdom without
  • 32:19 - 32:21
    will.
  • 32:21 - 32:25
    That's why Allah (AJ) gives us the analogy
    that you come in captive.
  • 32:25 - 32:26
    Right?
  • 32:26 - 32:30
    He didn't come walking into the kingdom and
    meet the king and say, ‘Hello,’ because
  • 32:30 - 32:34
    Allah (AJ) says, ‘There's an adab (manner)
    for this beatific dress’.
  • 32:34 - 32:39
    If you're coming in with your own will and
    think that you'll sort of lay your path and
  • 32:39 - 32:45
    you'll design the path that you want and one
    day you'll present yourself to Prophet ﷺ,
  • 32:45 - 32:52
    Allah (AJ) says, ‘No, that majesty and height,
    that reality is so high nobody enters in in
  • 32:52 - 32:59
    that reality,’ and they enter in ‘asir
    – captive that they have no will and perchance
  • 32:59 - 33:06
    the king will look at them and take them into
    his servanthood and this is the highest level
  • 33:06 - 33:09
    of khidmat and service.
  • 33:09 - 33:19
    This was the way that Sayyidina Salman al-Farsi
    (as) entered that he sold himself into captivity
  • 33:19 - 33:23
    and slavery and he entered into Madinatul
    Munawwara (luminous city of Prophet ﷺ) as
  • 33:23 - 33:28
    a slave and somebody owning him.
  • 33:28 - 33:34
    As a result, this is a symbol of how to approach
    the reality of Prophet ﷺ.
  • 33:34 - 33:40
    That how can we be a slave in this day and
    age?
  • 33:40 - 33:49
    It's not possible but the system of taslim
    and surrendering ourself, continuously taking
  • 33:49 - 33:55
    down our nafs and bad character and bad desires
    and asking Prophet ﷺ that, ‘Accept me
  • 33:55 - 34:01
    as your ghulam (servant), accept me as your
    servant to be of service to your kingdom and
  • 34:01 - 34:08
    to your nation,’ and this is the highest
    reality and the highest achievement – is
  • 34:08 - 34:12
    to live a life in service to Sayyidina Muhammad
    ﷺ.
  • 34:12 - 34:19
    And the word ‘Slavery’ for us and to be
    a ‘Slave’ is an immense honor for the
  • 34:19 - 34:26
    kingdom because ‘Abd’ is not the same
    word in English as it is in Arabic.
  • 34:26 - 34:33
    Abd is one whom Allah (AJ) when He grants
    the servant this reality of abd, they're granted
  • 34:33 - 34:36
    an ancient knowledge.
  • 34:36 - 34:43
    Means these servants are custodians of Allah's
    (AJ) ancient ‘Alim, ‘ilm (knowledge).
  • 34:43 - 34:50
    That they inherit from that ayn and they inherit
    from the immense realities of knowledges and
  • 34:50 - 34:51
    realities.
  • 34:51 - 34:55
    Means servanthood in Allah's (AJ) way is the
    highest honor.
  • 34:55 - 35:00
    And that's why Prophet ﷺ described that,
    ‘Nothing made me more happy than when Allah
  • 35:00 - 35:03
