Dars e Imam-Help

Dras E Imam, Shariath

“Bismillahir Rahmannir Raheem”Al-Hamdu Lillaahi Rabbil ‘Aalameen was Salaatu was- Salaamu ‘Alaa Sayidinaa Muhammadin wa Aalihi wa Asabihi Ajma ‘een (tauheed- risalat- ahkirat and islam-iman-ihsan)

“I hear with my own ears the Durood of those who love me and I also recognise them”. (Dala’ile Khairaat Shareef)

“Recite Durood Shareef abundantly on Fridays since it is a day of witnesses. Angels present themselves there. When any servant recites Durood, no matter who and where he is, his voice reaches me”. (Jila’ul Ifhaam; Az ibn Qayyim)

Sayyiduna Rasoolullah was making Wudhu for Tahajjud Salaah at the home of Hazrat Maimuna (ra). He suddenly called out three times, “Labbaik, Labbaik, Labbaik!” (Here I am) and “Nusirtu, Nusirtu, Nusirtu!” (I helped you). After saying this, he remained where he was and did not leave that place. Hazrat Maimuna (ra) further said: “When the Prophet completed his Wudhu, I asked him why he had called out those words”. He replied: “Raajiz was calling me”. What actually happened was that the Quraish wanted to kill Hazrat Umar bin Saalim Raajiz (ra) as he was on the road leading to Madinatul Munawwarah. He called out: “O Nabi ! Help me or else the enemies will kill me!” Sayyiduna Rasoolullah responded to his call from home and saved him from death. (Baihaqi; Tibrani)

This Hadith Shareef proves four points:

Sayyiduna Rasoolullah is observing his Ummah.

It is Ja’iz (Permissible) to call the Prophet for help.

Sayyiduna Rasoolullah can hear the call of his Ummah.

Sayyiduna Rasoolullah can help those in distress regardless of distance.

Hadrat Shah Abdul Aziz Muhaddith Delhwi (ra) wrote: “Through the help of Noor-e-Nabuwat, the Holy Prophet is aware and well informed of the condition and status of every religious person. He knows of the point where that person has reached in his Deen and what is the condition of his Imaan and through which veil it is that he is deprived of elevation. Thus, he knows your sins, intentions and bad ideas. This is why, according to Shari’ah, he will be witness for the Ummah in the world and in the Hereafter and he will be accepted and a compulsory action.” (Tafseer Azizi)

Al-‘arifu billah Sayyid Muhammad ‘Uthman al-Mirghani al-Makki al-Hanafi (ra) said in his book “Akrab at-turuki ila ‘l-haqq”: “Think of Rasoolullah’s presence facing you, his seeing and hearing you! Even if you are far away, Allahu Ta’ala makes your voice be heard and displays you. Here, being near or distant is the same.”

“And O Beloved, I have sent you not as mercy unto the worlds.” (21/107)

 Allama Aaloosi (radi Allahutala anhu) has stated, “And the Holy Prophet being mercy unto the worlds is in this context that throughout the entire universe, his control is present through the Blessing of Allah Ta’ala. This is why the Noor of the Prophet was the first thing to be created and it is in the Ahadith, ‘ O Jaabir! Almighty Allah had first created the Noor of your Nabi ‘ and in the next Hadith it is said that, ‘Almighty Allah is the Giver and I am the distributor. The explanation of the Soofia is more than that of mine in this matter.” (Tafseer Roohul Muaani)

“I am the one who distributes and Almighty Allah is the One who gives.” (Bukhari; Umdatul Qari)

Hazrat Rabia (ra) said in the court of the Holy Prophet : “I ask from you that I may be in Jannah with you.” (Mishkaat; Mirkaat)

“And Allah taught you that which you did not know and great is the grace of Allah upon you.” (4/113) This verse again proves that the Holy Prophet was not taught by any creation.The Holy Prophet is the teacher of the entire universe and Allah Ta’ala has taught every language to the Holy Prophet .

“And we have sent each Messenger in the language of His own people that He may tell them clearly.” (14/4)

Hazrat Allama Sulaiman (ra) states: “And the Holy Prophet used to converse with every nation their language.” (Tafseer Jaml)

Sheikh Mohiyuddeen ibn Arabi (ra) said, “There is no person on this earth that have not acquired from the Holy Prophet be it Ambiya or Awliyah, be he of this Shari’ah or of the past Shari’ah.”

“As Salaatu Was Salaamu Alaika Ya Rasoolullah” (Peace and Blessings upon you, O Messenger of Allah), or to recite “As Alukash Shafaa’atu Ya Rasoolullah” (I seek from you Shafaa’at /’Intercession’, O Messenger of Allah) is totally permissible.

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
