Best of Human Beings

Prophets (AS) have the highest stature among the people. No one has higher ranks than them. Even then they used to indulge in so much of Asking for Forgiveness.

Earth to Earth

There was a famous physician in Lucknow. He himself got TB. Similarly another famous doctor got bone marrow cancer. This is the reality of life. Those who treat diseases they too may fall sick. This is what was being talked with Shaikh Huzaifi (DB). He said that we are made of earth and will return to it.

Head Spinning

Whatever things are discovered by Science they all are created by Allah Most High. When one starts thinking about these creations of Allah then one's head goes into spin. Thinking about these things leads to God Consciousness (m'arifat). Whatever things will be discovered by Science till the Judgment Day they are all created by Allah Most High.

Where It all Ends Up

Whatever praise can be done in this world that all belongs to Allah Almighty.

During Recitation

Before starting Recitation of Holy Qur'an we recite T'awuz (I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the cursed). If you end up doing human talk during your Recitation then recite T'awuz again.

Physical and Spiritual Diseases

To learn the knowledge of Religion is a Personal Duty (farz-e-ain). To learn worldly knowledge is Social Duty (farz-e-kafaya). Today we act upon merely preferable tasks (mustahabaat) but ignore the obligatory (wajibaat). How can one inculcate an urge to do the duties? For this one has to some Shaikh. If we have a physical disease then we immediately consult a physician. We get worried about the possibility of a serious illness. Then suppose their is disease of spiritual kind. We indulge in open disobedience of God. There is no concern about this in our hearts.

Mufti Usama Seizes the Opportunity

Urdu newspapers had been reporting about the recent visit of Shaikh Awwama from Saudia for last few days. It is Shaikh Awwama whom Hazrat Shaikh (DB) had met during Haj. It is Shaikh Awwama who had said that Arabic literature on Islam has two things less as compared to Urdu: Letters (maktoobaat) and Sayings (malfoozat). Mufti Usama had an interesting encounter with the Arabian Shaikh yesterday on February 16, 2011AC. He gets a phone call that Shaikh Awwama is about to reach Firangi Mahal and the caller is going to meet the Shaikh. "Where are you?", asked the caller. "In Lucknow", was the reply. "Very lucky of you". Thus Mufti Usama too reached Firangi Mahal, presented himself and recited the Traditions to the Shaikh. And he got his Certificate (Sanad) from the Shaikh.

Now that is what we shall call real quick. The Shaikh later on took his flight to Jeddah from Lucknow at 5PM.
