Practices of attaining a Wakeful state of Seeing the Prophet peace be upon him and using Salawat Azeemiyyah

Practices of attaining a Wakeful State of Seeing the Prophet peace be upon him. This is really worth reading.

Practices of attaining a Wakeful state of Seeing the Prophet peace be upon him and  using Salawat Azeemiyyah.

Practice of (Muraqabah-visualization) during salawat is emphasised by Sidi Abd al-Karim al-Jili (qaddas Allahu sirru) Vision of the Prophet might be attained through constant salawat over the Prophet  peace be upon him from Ibn Arabi.

While, Sidi Ahmad Imad ad-Din al-Wasit Shadhili (qaddas Allahu sirru) emphasized attaching oneself to the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) ruhani -Spiritual presence and reciting the Salawat  “as if you were in his presence seeing him…” Sidi Abd al-Karim al-Jili (qaddas Allahu sirru) emphasized this aspect of (Muraqabah-visualization),

the object of which was “for a real vision to replace a synthetic one, for the cultivated visualization of the Prophet peace be upon him to become the actual, waking vision of the Prophet peace be upon him, ru’yat al-nabi yaqzatan”

The process of Practice of (Muraqabah-visualization) of  Prophet peace be upon him "Continuously call to mind his image… If you have seen him in your sleep, call that image to mind. If you have not, bless him, and in your dhikr imagine yourself with him in his life. He hears you and sees you whenever you mention him…  

If you cannot do this and you have visited his tomb, recall its image in your mind. Whenever you do dhikr or bless him, be as if you were standing at his tomb, in all honor and respect… If you have not visited his tomb, continue to bless him, and imagine him hearing you."

Using Sidi Ahmad Ibn Idris's Salawat Azeemiyyah for a Wakeful state of Seeing the Prophet peace be upon him, he uses the word ijma’ with both its meanings in mind: allow me to meet him, and unite me with him, and join me to/with him [the Prophet peace be upon him],

Just as You joined the Ruh with the nafs, Outwardly (zaahiran) and inwardly (baatinan), in wakefulness and in sleep…. meaning In (this world) before the next in'shallah; see Salawat Azeemiyyah for link in comments.

My notes: The secret is visualisation and focus from the heart by making a Niyyah and read salawat with love and feeling that love and Nur light enter ones heart and through deep slow breathing in an empty room.

One may focus on the green dome, or the blessed Sandal Nalayin, or the blessing birth mark on the shoulder, or simply read the meanings of the salawat and feel and allow it to cover your soul and heart, and be wrapped as if your with him (peace be upon him) in the cave like Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq (qaddas Allahu sirru), or as if like the Baby Sayyiduna Ali (qaddas Allahu sirru) who only gazed at his vision and blessed face.

Further indication is also given in a beautiful book of Salawat called, 'The Muhammadan Treasures', by Muhammad Muntasir Ahmad Hamid al-Halwani published by Sakinapublishing.com link here The Muhammdan Treasures.

There many other Salawats that Shadhili masters have mentioned and like Salawat al-Fatihi 1000 times or more morning and in the evening. 

These Salawats will open Spiritual Openings or vision of the eye of the Heart.
1. Salawat al-Fatihi.
2. Salawat Azeemiyyah.
3. Salawat Nariyah.
4. Salawat ibn Mashish.
5. Salawat Kubra. this is heavy.
6. Khusus Shaykh Nazim.
7. Salawat from Shaykh Abdul Ghani bin Salah al Ja'fari.
8. Asr Salawat of Friday.
9. Salawat Akbar.
10. Salawat Jawhartul Asrar Rifai
11. Salawat Kibrit Al-Ahmar Jilani.

The Qadir Sultan al Awilya Shaykh Abdal Qadir Jilani (qaddas Allahu sirru) talks salawat about for wakeful vision too. And recently Naqshbandi Mawlana Shaykh Nazim Haqqani (qaddas Allahu sirru) has mentioned Salawats to help with wakeful vision Yaqadhan as well. 

(Note this was posted on my facebook in July 2014)

Also please have a read of post 'Seven mountains a Salik must conquer in the quest towards his goal'. Which talks about Salawat Azeemiyyah too.

The Great Merits of Salawat Azeemiyya reading it once equals 1 Million Dalai'l al-Khayrat and much more in weight than Salawat al-Fatihi.

English meaning of Salawat Azeemiyya: O Allah, I ask by the Magnificent Light of Your Face, Which filled pillars of the Majestic Divine Throne, and by it are upheld the worlds of Allah, the Immense. 

To send blessings upon our Master Muhammad of magnificent worth, and upon the family of the Prophet of Allah, the exalted, as much as the greatness of the Essence of Allah, the Great. In every glance and in every breath, as numerous as that is contained within the Knowledge of Allah, the Great. 

A prayer that is perpetual in the perpetuity of Allah, al Azim. In glorification of your worth, O our Master Muhammad, O you of the most noble nature, and send peace upon him and his family just as much, and join him with me, just as You joined the soul with the nafs, outwardly and inwardly, in wakefulness and in sleep. 

And make him, O Lord, a soul for my body in every aspect. In the here and now, before the next world to come, O the Magnificent One.

Salawat Azeemiyya; 
Allahumma inni as’aluka bi-nuri wajhillahil ‛Azim. Alladhi mala’a arkana ‛arshillahil ‛Azim, wa qamat bihi ‛awalimullahil ‛Azim, 

an tusalli ‛ala mawlana Muhammadin dhil-qadril ‛Azim, wa ‛ala ali nabiyyillahil ‛Azim, bi-qadri ‛azamati dhatillahil ‛Azim, fi kulli lamhatin wa nafasin ‛adada ma fi ‛ilmillahil ‛Azim, 

salatan da’imatan bi-dawamillahil ‛Azim, ta‛ziman  li-haqqika ya mawlana ya Muhammadu ya dhal-khuluqil ‛Azim, wa sallim ‛alayhi wa ‛ala alihi mithla dhalik, wajma‛ bayni wa-baynahu kama jama‛ta baynarruhi wannafsi, 

zahiran wa batinan, yaqzatan wa manaman, waj‛alhu ya Rabbi ruhan li-dhati min jami‛il wujuhi, fiddunya qablal akhirati, ya ‛Azim.

=======
Ijaza for all to read Salawat Azeemiyya from Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari (qaddas Allahu Sirru) who says:

"And I give ijaza to all the brothers from the Idrisi tariqa and from others, from the East to the West of the world, in this Salaat Azeemiyya, in which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave me ijaza.

And likewise I give them ijaza in the First Salaat, which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) heard from me, and like wise I give them ijaza with the rest of the salawat, which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave me ijaza in by saying:

“With it and with other than it.”

And I make my sanad in that the Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ). And I have great hope that everyone who hears these words of mine, and turns with his heart and body toward these salawat, and recites them regularly with love and belief, that he will see him (ﷺ), in sleep and in the waking. And nothing stands between me and the doubters except trying."

Muraqabah - The Sufi Science of Sufi Meditation or technique to meditate

How to do basic Muraqabah focused Sufi Meditation
Muraqabah - "The Sufi Science of Sufi Meditation or technique to meditate". Its more of a deep visualisation practice based on the Sufi Master’s face (or the Name Allah) while reciting through inhaling and exhaling  La-e-laha ill-lallah, slowly to start off. "Looking at the face of Sayyiduna Ali is Ibadah-worship", looking the your Parents is Ibadah-worship and looking at the Holy Ka’bah-(the House of God) is Ibadah-worship. Hadith-Traditions.

So looking at the face of Ali is Ibadah-worship. Thus his title is–(Karam Allah Wajhu- may Allah ennoble his face). Sayyiduna Ali by blood lineage is 1st cousin to the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and also his Son-in-law and the 4 th Islamic Khalifah. 

He was born inside the Holy Ka’bah-the House of God, and didn’t open his eyes for three days until the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) held him and only then did he open his eyes and the first glance he gave was to the face of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him), it says that he also never looked at this part privates ever.

In the time of Prophet Yusuf ibn Ya’qub-Joseph son of Jacob (alayhis-salaam), there was a time of seven years of plentiful food and seven years of starvation and this was seen in a dream, ‘The king dreamt that seven lean cows were eating seven fat ones and that there were seven green ears of corn and seven dry ones. He asked the nobles to tell him the meaning of his dream if they were able to. They replied “it is a confused dream and we do not know the meaning of such dreams.” - Quran Surah Yusuf 12:43, 44

In the years of starvation or famine, people for other areas came for food and there was not enough food for them. One of the main secrets of Prophet Yusuf-Joseph, was his great beauty, it says that he was blessed with 9/10th of all beauty. He had to wear a Niqab-face veil. When people were in starvation they had to stand in front of him, he would lift his face veil, the beauty from his face would fulfil their hunger. They just had to look at his face .

When the Muslims conquered Mecca, Bilal was told to stand on top of the Holy Ka’baah-the House of Allah-God and give the call for pray. He asked the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) which way should I look, for when one calls people to pray you have to Face the Holy Ka’bah-the House of Allah-God, which is called Qibla-direction. 

The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) told Bilal (qaddas Allahu Sirru) to look at his Face. So from this we have the saying the Ka’bah of the Ka’bah is the face of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him).

So looking at the face of Sayyiduna Ali (alayhis-salaam) has the reward of worship (for he has holy blood and has been blessed by God and so have his descendants who are from the daughter of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and looking at the holy face of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) is looking at the holiest of the holy. It is know that all Holy saints of Islam or Sufi Masters have this secret for this secret is part of what is given to them by the holy Prophet’s (peace be upon him) Nur-Light. 

Sahabah-Companion means you saw the "Face" of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) this is Muraqabah.

The companions were around him and showed him love and honour by following him, and the more they were around him the more they drank from this Nur-Light from his Face and this secret drinking from that energy has now come down from Sufi master to Sufi Master to this present day...

Sister told in Muraqabah to read Khidri Salawat taught to Imam Abul Abbas al-Mursi Shadhili

Today a Haqqani (with my help and guidance) in (Muraqaba Visualisation) saw Shaykh Abdul Kerim Effendi picture inserted, who passed away June 2012. He was known as Sahibul Saif Shaykh Abdul Kerim al-Qubrusi) and she was told by Shaykh Abdul Kerim Effendi to read the 4 line Khidri Salawat taught to Imam Abul Abbas al-Mursi Shadhili qaddas Allahu sirru.

(posted on my facebook 16th Feb 2019)

Sister told in Muraqabah to read Khidri Salawat taught to
Imam Abul Abbas al-Mursi Shadhili qaddas Allahu sirru.

(Of Course there are Rules to Muraqaba, that one needs to know, if your shown or taught Salawat or Islamic Duas its Haqq usually, if its worldly then measure it against the Shariah and Sunnah and seek Naseeah too)

The Secret of this Salawat is if one reads it, they are risen to the Maqam to Abdaal-(1 of 40 High Ranking Saints)

In her Muraqaba the Haqqani sister was shown a book with Salawat written in Arabic. She was thinking where do I find this salawat from?

What she saw, was the one taught to Imam Abul Abbas al-Mursi Shadhili 
qaddas Allahu sirru from Al-Khidr alayhis-salaam.

Then later while going through my posts the same Salawat appeared from in the news feeds.

This Salawat (see below) is enough that it opens the Doors to Sainthood if you keep reading it each day or maybe only for a moment in ones life or longer.

Shadhili Salawat Seeking Forgiveness for Ummah from taught by Sayyiduna Khidr 
alayhis-salaam. Whoever reads it every morning with become one of the (Abdaal - Hidden secret 40 saints) Inshallah. And Allah and his Saints know best!

(Muraqabah Visualisation) means it was a wakeful state not a dream, some can connect or see with eyes open others while doing Dhikr or focusing, others can see with their eyes closed, others may see (Saints) or something jump or enter their minds suddenly like a message.

Reference of Salawat taken from Book: Orison of The School of the Shadhdhuliyyah, volume one by Shaykh Abdullah Nooruddeen Durkee al-Shadhuli. Extra notes: I found other variants such as the 3 line version given from Early Great Sufi Master Shaykh Ma`ruf al-Karkhi qaddas Allahu sirru
Allahumma Farrij’an Ummati Muhammadin
Remembering the Muslim Ummah in One’s Prayers-Dua by Shaykh Ma`ruf al-Karkhi
qaddas Allahu sirru; “Whoever says,
Allahumma Aslih Ummata Muhammadin
Saallallahu alayhi wa sallam
Allahumma Arham Ummata Muhammadin

O Allah, improve the state of the Umma of Muhammad
O Allah, grant ease to the Umma of Muhammad
O Allah, have mercy on the Umma of Muhammad)

(Ten times) every day will be written down as one of the highest of elect believers (abdaal).” [Abu Nu`aym, Hilyat al-Awliya , 8.366]
Note: There is other longer 10 line Salawats version composed by the Great Alim and Ashiq Imam Yusuf Nabhani
qaddas Allahu sirru.
(Don't be Shy and Share with others too, so you too can take from its blessings when others see and practices this)
