Muhammad HabeebuLlah: Who Are We to Hate The One Our Creator Loves?

 All praise is due to Allah the uncreated creator, the originator of the heavens and earth. May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon the one whom Allah made loving him a prerequisite for the perfection of Iman; for he is the most beloved person to Allah. MUHAMMAD: HABIBULLAH صلى الله عليه وسلم  #Maulid1442 The greatest Prophets of Allah SWT have nicknames. The nickname of Prophet Nuh AS is Najiyu Llah. Khalilu Llah - Ibrahim Kalimu Llah - Musa Ruhu Llah - Isa While that of our noble Prophet is Habibu Llah (the one loved by Allah). The love of Allah for his prophet can't be explained by any other than Allah Himself and the prophet SAW. This love is exemplified by Allah to His prophet through some special status He granted  his prophet/ummah that were not given to previous prophets/nations. However, it shoud be made clear  from onset that its a  matter of creed  for muslims to believe in all Prophets sent by Allah. Ibn Kathir mentions in his commentary of Q2:285: 'The believe

How Can We Not Love and Celebrate You Yah RasulaLlah!

 Have you ever been loved? Have you ever been loved by a unique personality?  Have you ever imagined being loved by someone so important that even his creator is proud about his uniqueness? #Maulid1442 #MaulidNabi #Mawlid1442 Your Prophet Muhammad love you unconditionally, he wouldn’t want the slightest problem to happen to you. That love manifested in every creation on earth, he let it flow to human beings, all of them, animals, all of them, plants all of them, mountains all of them. Rasool love his ummah so much that even in pain when he was on his sick bed, he asked Allah to increase the pain he feels so that it will be decreased for his ummah... nobody will do this for his loved ones nobody.  He went to Ta’if the people there out of ignorance threw stones at him, but all he was asking was for Allah to create form among them someone that will be Muslim, maybe they will get Rahma of Allah. Even the ibadah, he had to make sure Allah gave us the simplest act possible, whatever feels li

SHAYKH SANNI AWWAL (1925-1977)

  (Personal Assistant & Companion of Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse)   By: Dr. Awwal Baba Taofiq (The Icon of Mystics: Shaykh Ibrahim Niass Al-Kawlakhy, [Pages 146-151])   Shaykh Muhammad al-Thanni ibn al-Awwal al-Kanawi (d. 1977), the defacto vicegerent of Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse in Nigeria was taken to Kawlakh for studies by his father in 1947. After spending ten years, he returned to Nigeria and settled in Lagos. He embarked upon spreading the Faydah to all nook and cranny of the world. He has a large following in Benin Republic, Togo, Ghana, Sierra-Leone, Abidjan and Cameroon.   The spread of Faydah al-Tijaniyyah in Ilorin and its environ in the early 1960s is owing largely to the influence and impact of disciples of Shaykh Sanni Awwal. These are; Al-hajj Ibrahim Akanbi of Okesuna area, Ilorin, followed by Shaykh Abdullah Baba Taofiq (d2005) who later became Khalifa of Shaykh Ibrahim Niass in Kwara State.

JUDGE LOVE!

  JUDGE LOVE A Maulid Thread  #Maulid1442  The title belongs to my honourable master, Sheikh Ali Juma'a, the former Grand Mufti of Egypt, in a paper he presented to us at Masjidur Rahmanir Rahim, Abbasiyya, Cairo, year 2010 after which he published it as a book named (حاكموا الحب).  The people of our time were driven away from the spirit of Love, compassion and sympathy, and got overwhelmed by materialism, they no longer believe, let along, see the miracles of love that work in mysterious ways.  Let us with this thread try to revive the spirit of Love within ourselves through recalling some of its prodigies exhibited by Humans, Animals, Objects and just every living in the universe and multiverse towards the heart of the mankind and the center of Allah's focus.  Don't judge anybody or anything for their crazinness and irresponsible actions in the sanctity of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, Judge Love..  That's what drove the universe crazy back th

Brief History of Sheikh Ahmad Tijani Niasse

SHORT BIOGRAPHY OF SHAYKH AHMAD TIJĀNĪ IBRĀHĪM NIASS  SHORT BIOGRAPHY OF SHAYKH AHMAD TIJĀNĪ IBRĀHĪM NIASS  By: Sayyidah Balqīs Grillo at-Tijānī For anyone coming across Khalifa Shaykh Tijani for the first time, if he asks for the description of Shaykh Tijani, the right answer is to say that he is Sirr Barham Niass. Why is this so? It was Shaykh Ibrahim himself who said in one of his many statements when referring to the maqāmāts of three of his sons as follows:  “Abdullah ilmī, Nazīr Sūratī wa Shaykh Ahmad Tijānī Sirrī” Meaning: “Abdullah is my knowledge, Nazir is my picture and Shaykh Ahmad Tijānī is my secret — my hiddenness.” Shaykh Ahmad Tijānī was born into a home of knowledge, sainthood and piety in December, 1932 some 88 years ago. His mother was a simple-natured, honourable woman of substance and piety in the person of Sayyidah Maryam Muhammad Niyam, a woman that was righteous to her husband and who produced for him good fruits by way of noble children. “A pure land sprouts a
