Peace is only in the Remembrance of Allah
Friends of Allah, Love of Allah May 21st, 2008
Abstaining from sins and Remembering the name of Allah Ta’ala is the only way to attain peace and tranquility. So learn to make the Zikr of Allah Ta’ala and sit in the company of those Pious People (buzurgs) where the sweetness of the name of Allah is attained. They are those whom Allah Ta’ala, through his love and connection, has granted them an understanding. Go and spend some time with them, take out 40 days and then see for yourself what happens.
If someone is diagnosed with cancer of the lungs and the doctor advises him to go to the mountains of Maree (for treatment by breathing fresh air) would he not go? The Ahlullah have the remedies for spiritual diseases. One attains the love of Allah through the company of the Ahlullah. We can’t see Allah Ta’ala, but our hearts can perceive Him. That is why the special mercies of Allah Ta’ala are always descending upon the hearts of the Ambiya and Auliya.

Nurturing the Lovers of Allah
Book Reviews March 12th, 2008
Tarbiyat-e-’Aashiqaan-e-Khuda
Our beloved shaykh and spiritual guide, the Knower of Allah, Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Sahib (DB) has given replies and remedies to every spiritual disease and in particular the epidemic of our times; lustful glances and infatuations and its’ evil effects. Hazrat (DB) has given such rare pearls of wisdom regarding this destructful disease which are not to be found and are unprecedented in the history of Tasawwuf.
The reason behind this is that this problem was not as widespread before as it is now. The work being taken from Hazrat in this field is without doubt the work that Allah takes from a reviver of the century. The reason being, that the concept of lowering the gaze has been so overlooked that people do not even consider lustful glances to be a sin anymore. Hazrat has taken this task upon himself to alert and inform the Ummah of its harms.
It is for this very reason that senior scholars acknowledge that Hazrat is the reviver of guarding the gaze and the reviver of tasawwuf for this century. This statement is not yours or mine, but I have heard this from senior scholars of Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, England, South Africa and many others. Hazrat (DB)’s own achievements prove that he is the reviver of the 15th century. Also, the depth and detail by which Hazrat has explained the tricks and treacherous tactics of the nafs in regards to illicit infatuations and lustful glances and its cures and remedies, is not even found in the works of our pious predecessors because this is the epidemic of our times. Allah has, is, and Insha Allah will continue to benefit the Ummah through Hazrat (DB)’s work in this field. May Allah prolong Hazrat (DB)’s shadow of benefit over us continue his blessing till the Day of Judgment. Aameen!
The book which can be downloaded from the Khanqah’s website is a published version of what has been gathered from Al-Abrar with the same name. I pray that Allah accept this work from the compilers, and anyone who has contributed in any way, shape or form. Aameen!
