Treasures
of Mysteries
by Hazrat Sheikh
Sultan Bähü (Rahmatullah 'Alayh).
TYPES
OF QADRI'S
Yes, Qadri's are of three types:
-
First is the one who is called an Arif
engaged in Allah’s dhikr Lailahaillalaho Mohammadur Rasullah (Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim).
-
Second is the one whose salaat blesses
him with the union of Allah and is engaged in silent dhikr (Khafi) and
always remains absorbed in Allah.
-
Third is one who also has Ma’arfa of
Allah with Mushaiba (beholding). And with that is blessed with Haq-ul-Yaqeen
(the ultimate by which a beholder sees the very objective in which he used
to believe without seeing). He remains intoxicated and is always
drowned in the Noor of the Holy Court of Syedna Rasul-e-Akram (Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim), remains in Hazoori (in the Holy Court) but apparently
his affairs (worldly wise) are pitiable and unsettled, thus, he remains
silent, tight lipped (no vain talking), and is fana fir Allah.
He is a Talib according to the Holy Quran (know that the friends of Allah
shall never have any fear nor grievance and sorrow).
HE
WHO TURNS AWAY
FROM REMEMBRANCE
OF ALLAH
IS A WORLDLY
PERSON
I pity and wonder at the people who
instead of running towards Allah, run away from Him as if they had never
heard or been exposed to Ma’arfa of Allah and yet there are some who despite
of all that all that call themselves Arif - the one who had gained entry
into the Holy Court. But in fact they are without any Ma’arfa and
miles away from the Holy Court of Syedna Rasul-e-Akram (Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim) and on account of their Kashf (nasooti) and satanic Karama and
Bid'at (innovation in faith) Shaitan makes them haughty. Therefore
in pursuit of worldly wealth day and night they corrupt themselves.
Translation:
Whatever keeps a person
away from Allah that very thing is known as world (Dunya) and whatever
takes one near Allah that is a paradise (Jannah).
Before you in a steep
climb which cannot be scaled except Ma’arfa someone asked: “Ya Rasullulah
(Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim) who are Mukhatafoon.” The Holy Messenger
(Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim) replied, “do you have the rizq for today.”
He said, “Yes.” He (Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim) asked
for tomorrow. He replied in the affirmative. Then again the
Holy Messenger (Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim) asked, For the day after,
the man said not for the day after. The Holy Messenger (Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim) said, “if you had with you provisions for that
day then you would not have been counted amongst the Ma’arfa. But
instead you would be counted amongst Mussaqaleen.”
In the Tariqa Qadria
Mohammadia, there is nothing but lovers of Mohammad. It has neither
hollow sermons, degradation and tall claims like Firaoon.
THE
TARIQA QADRIA CONTAINS
TREASURES
OF ALLAH’S MA’ARFA
There are treasures of Allah’s Ma’arfa
in Qadri Tariqah. A Qadri Talib is never tired of doing excessive
prayers and Mamoolat but on the contrary he remains happy under all the
circumstances and does not care for his wealth whatever he has he spends
in the way of Allah. But the generous talib; (i) the miser (ii) the
wife (iii) his own children who are always spying upon him and create difficulties
for him. One should avoid such circumstances because these are due
to jealousy.
Translation:
My dear, let me tell you
one thing that Inshallah there is nothing worse than jealousy (in this
world).
The virtues of Generosity
as a Manifestation of an
Attitude Showing Disregard
for the World and that is
one of the Greatest Pillars
of Sufia.
By being generous a
person is absolved of all the rights of Allah’s creatures and by this one
always comes to know how much a talib values his wealth before the Almighty.
That’s why Almighty Allah has said in the Holy Quran:
“You shall not reach the
limits of virtues till you spend what you love the most.”
TYPES
OF MURSHID
It is not an easy thing to be
a Shaikh.
Know, O’ Talib, that Murshids
(Shuyukh) also are of three kinds. The first is that Perfect Shaikh
who is a mercy for a talib and second is the imperfect one, who is a burden
and obstacle for a talib and a this type is one who is the one who achieves
worldly honors, wealth, titles and by virtue of such progress, such a Shaikh
acquires station of Pharaoh. A perfect Shaikh who attains
Ma’arfa of Allah knows the virtues of lovers of Mohammad (Sall Allahu alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallim) and the Shaikh who neither acquires worldly stations nor Ma’arfa
of Allah, he thus earns insult and humiliation of booth the worlds.
Therefore it is very clear that it is not an easy thing to become a Shaikh,
which one might think of gaining with little hard work.
Ways of Shaikh and
of (true) Talib are secrets from the mysteries of Allah and this favour
is due to Allah’s Mercy and Reward which is not bestowed upon vulgares
and Talibs of the world and it is Allah’s favour which He bestows upon
whom He will, and, of course, true talibs and Perfect Shaikhs are those
who deserve it.
Those who are usually
opposed to Tariqa Qadria always belongs to one of three classes:
Shia, Kharji, Munafiq (hypocrite) and Zindiq (not following Shariah).
Some ignorant people boast of having Khalafat from all the disciplines.
Such claims are all false because a follower of Qadri Tariqa does not need
to follow any other Tariqa, because where there is a LION all other
animals runaway.
