Suhbat 09-22-2007

 

Shaykh Muhammad (s) Hisham Kabbani

 

Michigan Zawiya

We continue from previous session that wherever there is difficulty there is
ease, inna ma` al-`usri yusra. And he confirmed, for sure, inna ma `al `usri
yusra that with every difficulty there I ease. So that is giving to us a
hint that Allah is saying to us, there will be obstacles, and if you are
patient there is a way out of it but that way cannot come unless you are
patient. Because he said, that* inn ma `al `usri yusra - that with every
difficulty there is the  possibility of contentment *but the condition for
that is the manifestation of His Name as-Saboor, you have to be patient. To
be patient by tongue is easy but it is when the difficulty comes that the
true measure of patiencey is so delicate that Allah swt ordered his angels
to see how far you can go with patience.

 

Look Allah swt is patient with His servants. He provided them with
everything and yet they don't obey His commands. He said, "I am going to be
patient to the Judgment Day and on that day, don't ask how I am gong to deal
with them."

Ýóãó?íóÚúãóáú ãöËúÞóÇá?ÐóÑøóÉ?ÎóíúÑð?íóÑóåõ æóãó?íóÚúãóáú ãöËúÞóÇá?
ÐóÑøóÉ?ÔóÑøðÇ íóÑóåõ

 

*Faman ya`mal mithaqaala dharratin khayran yaraah, wa man ya`mal mithaqaala
dharratin sharran yaraah. *

There *whoever did an atoms' weight of evil will see it and whoever did an
atom's weight of good will see it. [99:7,8]*

And then those who did good will receive Paradise and those who did not do
good will receive something else, but look: *Wa rahmatee wasi`at kulla shay*?
* My Mercy encompasses every thing.* And still His patience is overcoming
and His anger is overcome by His mercy. He is giving permission to the
Prophet so use *shafa`.* With that *shafa`,* take everyone inside to
Paradise. You cannot find that huge mercy anywhere except you find it in
Islam.

 

Wherever religion or belief you go, [real] Islam, that the Prophet
brought, the Islam that is not only the form, the structure, but the taste,
the spiritual dimension of Islam also, both of them together, shows how much
we have to struggle in the Wy of Allah in order to reach that eternal mercy
that Allah will bestow on the Day of Judgment.

He said that patience is calculated, Allah is calculating, by giving order
to His angels to measure patience. In the time of *imtihaan *and* shiddah*,
tests and hardship. So how many kinds of different ones, *`inda
as-si`ar,*in difficulties,

*`inda al-imtihaan*, under tests, and *`inda ash-shada'id, *in the face of
hardships. They are looking at that time at the servant and checking.

At that time they send on the servant the blessings of the names, Dhu
'l-Jalaali wa 'l-Ikraam. *Subhanallah* how these two Names are together. So
after you are in difficulties, Allah sends His Majestic Power to shake you.
When you go to someone who is very very serious and you do something wrong,
you are afraid In front of that judge, he might take a harsh decision. What
do you think of Allah if you have been thru three tests in front of you and
then that majestic *tajalli* comes from His Divine Presence? Huh? Say! You
will be afraid and shaking.

 

Are you the only two awake? So what happened? You are shaking and afraid.
There, if you show contentment, [by saying] "o Ya Rabbee, you bestowed on me
the *tajalli* of Jalaal, the majestic *tajalli*, but Ya Rabbee, I am content
with whatever decision You make  I am a weak servant." That is the level or
station of *rida*, contentment. Ya Rabbee, I am content with what you have
given me. So what Allah said in that Name, Dhu'l-Jalaal, wa 'l-Ikraam. First
Jalaal followed by Ikraam. [It means:] "I am going to *ikrimik*, to give
hospitality and generosity to all of you."  I am owner of that majestic
Attribute which all prophets will shake under it, even Sayyidina Muhammad
(s), but don't worry if you were content and patient, I will immediately  -
after My Name Majestic, is My Name Ikraam, [The Generous,] and I will give
favors that you never imagined in your life. If you are content and patient
with all the difficulties I am sending you and then I will favor you with
Ikraam."

Not Kareem here but Ikraam. To honor guests here is *waajib*. "I am honoring
you now as my guests. I will honor you and favor you."

So what you think Allah will honored His servants. Is He like us?

You go to visit the shaykh. You go there and you put something in a package,
a [bar of ] soap and an incense and present as a gift. Someone else might
take a gold coin and present to the shaykh, everyone according to his
generosity. The one who took the soap, as he can and the one who took the
golden coin, as he can.

 

So Haabil, when Allah ordered him to make a sacrifice he gave the best of
what he had and the other, Caabil, he brought the worst of what he had.

*Watlu `layhim nabaa ibnay adama bil-haqqi idh qarraba qurbanan fatuqubbila
min ahadihima wa lam yutaqabbal mina al-akhari qaala la-aqtulannaka qaala
innama yataqabbalu Allahu mina al-muttaqeen.*

*5:27 Recite to them the truth of the story of the two sons of Adam. Behold!
they each presented a sacrifice (to Allah.: It was accepted from one, but
not from the other. Said the latter: "Be sure I will slay thee." "Surely,"
said the former, "(Allah) doth accept of the sacrifice of those who are
righteous.* [Al-Ma'idah [5:27]

 

He said that Allah accepted the sacrifice from one and not from the other.
The other gave the worst. If he doesn't have anyone [sheep] in good shape,
and only has what is in bad shape and then he gave it, that is accepted. But
he has good ones and he picked the worst one and gave it. Allah said "no."
He said, "O you accepted from my brother and you didn't accept from me."

You see the nature of good and evil. You see that from the beginning from a
long time. You do good today you see more coming to you of bad. You see more
of the bad than the good.

 

Your coming here is from the good. Why to come here and drive the long way
here? It is a test. You took the difficulties of driving and the hardship of
coming and it might be another whip come after it from the *suhbat* and
still you are content, you are happy. So what you think Allah will be with
you. [He is] Dhu'l-Jalaal wal-Ikraam. He is going to be favoring you with
favors that you cannot count as human being.

We human beings we give *ikraam* as much as there is respect. As much as
gift is big, that is as much as the love is big and as much as the gift is
small as much as the love is small. But for a poor person, that is accepted
because that is what he can do.

 

So the level of tranquility is above the level of xxx? When you face a
problem do you face it with a smiling face or with a frowning face? We
cannot face it with smiling face. A frowning face is not a sign of
acceptance. Still you don't do anything but you crush your teeth, you are
struggling with the ego, "shall I fight him or what shall it do?" You are
angry; you want to suck him - suck his blood for revenge. So the sign of
anger is look at the teeth of the person, is he smiling like that or .not?

That is *tariqah*. That is what *awliyaullah* are trying to ask their
students for them to always be content, "Ya Rabbee it is from You; I am
accepting." The one who is content you never see him grinding his teeth. Not
at night when he is sleeping; not during the day.

 

Do you grind your teeth? During the day how many times do you grind your
teeth with Abdul Fattah? He is here? So with happiness when you don't grind
your teeth and you get angry but you keep smiling it means you are accepting
everything and smiling.

So what happened to Haabil? He said, "If you are going to extend your hand
to kill me I am not going to extend my hand to kill you." Although Haabil
has power to kill him, he said, "I am content, happy. I will go to paradise
and you will go to hellfire."

 

Then he killed him. That is from day one, badness. A person with bad temper
can kill at anytime. A good person can never kill. To save ourselves from
that is to be patient and content with what Allah sends. That is why the
sign of that is *farah*, joy in the face.

That is why Allah said "*with every difficulty there is ease."* So wait
until that comes, don't try to overpass that. If you do that then you are
from *ash-shaakireen*. Then I will open the station of* rida'ullah *Allah's
station of satisfaction with his servants. There is a Qasr ar-Rida in
paradise, the Palace of Contentment. Allah will call anyone who was content
with me, happy with me in his life, just as he calls the *sa'imoon,* to
ar-Rayyaan.

 

Like He swt calls them in Judgment Day to stand up and enter the
door of ar-Rayyaan, only for fasting people. And the Prophet (s) said there
is a door for the prayers. Everyone who was praying in *dunya*, goes thru
that door. There is Baab al-zakaat, whoever was giving charity goes through
that door. There is the door of fasting; There is the door of hajj. There
are different doors that every *mu'min *goes thru. So he said that everyone
who accepts from Allah swt has to be thankful and Allah said, *wa qaleelun
min `ibaadee ash-shakoor -* *Very few of my servants are going to thank
Allah."* Do we thank Allah? Do we do 100 x *Alhamdulillah* do we do
100x*shukran lillah

*. That Palace of Contentment is unique. You cannot find anyone like that.
If this whole *dunya*, not the earth but this whole universe is thrown in
that palace the whole galaxies will become like a ring in that palace.
Imagine how much Allah swt has prepared for believers.

You struggle in this *dunya*. Some people come and say, "O I don't have
work." "What are you doing?" "Putting groceries on the shelf, cleaning." The
other comes and says, "I am not happy, I don't have work." Everyone must
have a complaint. It is ok, but if you are patient on that complaint, then
you are going to be in that paradise which has that palace, Qasr al-Rda,
that if you throw the whole universe in it, it is like a ring. Which is
better: to struggle in dunya for 50, 60 years and try be content, and do
what you can. Allah is preparing something for you, it is a building He is
building for you, one brick upon one brick; every day; one sin comes, one
brick falls down, one *hasanatan* comes, ten bricks come added. That is
Allah's generosity.

 

When you say *salawat* on the Prophet how many *hasanaat* is given? It might
be 10, but you think it is only one *hasanaat*. Because it is long: *Allahuma
salli `ala Sayyidina Muhammad* Might be 10 *hasanaat* on every letter.

*Sayiaat* is only one. *Hasanaat* go up from 10 to 700.

So that Paradise of *rida* the door of it, its door is called Baab
as-Saabireen. The door of the patient. If you miss that door, you cannot
find it anymore. That is why you must not miss it. You must always be
content with what Allah gave to you. Today is fasting. Let us say we fasted
from Thursday to Thursday, Friday is 9 today is 10 in that night Allah
bestowed His Mercy on those who are fasting. The first ten days are *rahmat*.
The 2nd ten days are *maghfirah*, forgiveness and the last 10 days are *`itqan
min an-naar*.

 

We are in the first 10 days and it is a mercy and from that
mercy in this night, what happened, *nushirat as-suhuf,* the scrolls are
published and printed. The news is published and printed. Every event or
every what is going to take place heavenly spiritually from today is going
to make the heart happy on the day of the 10th day. It was given in that
night all the trusts that Sayyidina Mahdi is waiting for it. And it was
given for a new era. That era has been confirmed from today and it is going
to be increasing more and more to the end of Ramadan. You are going to see
from now to the 2nd ten days and today news was given out that events that
are going to be seen. The trusts that are in Topkapi were given to him and
it is going to be announced that peace is coming on earth and devils are
going to be thrown out and happiness and contentment and over going to fill
this earth with that spiritual enlightenment and people are going to be in
full ascension with *awliyaullah* to the levels that they have been assigned
in the Day of Promises. Everyone has been assigned a level in the Day of
Promises and they are going to be content with it.

 

No one is going to wish
they are higher or lower in level. Like jewels on a crown, even though one
is more valuable or less valuable than the others, it is has its place. If
you take it out of its crown it has its place.

In that night he has been given 12,000 of?the senior of awliyaullah - not
normal people - to help him in what he needs to achieve, and he has been
given from huge number of group of jinn and from the groups of Nujaba,
Nuqaba, Awtaad, Akhyaar together with jinn and angels. All of them are ready
to send that source of heavenly power to move the hearts of people and to
clean the hearts of people and to prepare them to receive that message.

We will see that in the next ten days what will come and then in the last
ten days.

--
I thought that I remember Him,
that I know Him,
that I love Him,
and that I seek Him;
but when I reached Him, I saw that His remembering of me preceded my
remembrance of Him,
that His knowledge about me preceded my knowledge of Him,
........that His love towards me was more ancient than my love towards Him,
and that He sought me in order that I would begin to seek Him."

Assalamu `alaykum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh,
