Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

We had a Khatam Qur'an on the night of Nuzul Qur'an, followed by a meaningful Suhbah on the lessons of this blessed night.


YouTube video of the Sohbah.


Points covered include:

1) the Muslim community not treasuring their own priceless ukhrawi gifts; instead they are jealous of, and striving for the worthless duniawi gifts given to unbelievers, worth less than a mosquito's wing. Therein lies the sad state of the Ummah today.



2) The need for iktikaf/seclusion for a seed to germinate. No one changes unless having a period of self-reflection.



3) Was Rasulullahﷺ a student or teacher to Jibrail Alayhi Salam? Answering a question by a mureed.



4) Humility is the first step to acquiring true and beneficial knowledge - admitting to oneself that 'I do not know... '



5) Guidance only begins with a teacher, a guide. Whoever does not have a Murshid, his real teacher is shaitan.



6) Loyalty to one's guide is paramount for one's progress in Tariqah. Just as a wife will not desire or share herself with another man, a mureed is only attached to his Shaykh. The Sohbah also explains why it is very dangerous to seek spiritual healing and lessons from outside our Way.



7) What is the sign that our repentance has been accepted?



Do watch the video above to hear the answers and elaboration to these points insyaAllah.
