THE DIVINE FLOOD: ETIQUETTES OF THE WAZIFAH

QUESTION

Salam Alaykum Imam,

Must women read Wazifah loudly or softly, and how must they dress when reading it? Can they wear night clothes?

ANSWER

Wa Alaykum As-Salam ya habibi,

1-Women must read softly when in the presence of men but may read loudly when alone.

An exception may be made if a women becomes ecstatic and loses herself in the Dhikr, but an exception remains an exception, not a rule.

This has been CLEARLY stated by Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse (RA).

2- One should try to dress appropriately for the Sacred Wazifah in all circumstances. A woman must cover properly. Night clothes are not appropriate for men or women. Do wear something extra...e.g. a shawl and a skullcap.

Note that the Prophet (SAW) and the 4 Khalifahs are present during the Wazifah!!!

If one keeps this point in mind, then all other etiquette will be observed naturally.

Shaykh Ibrahim (RA) mentions in the beginning of the Ruh al-Adab that when we commence our Adhkar, we must display proper Adab outwardly and inwardly.

May Allah grant us all the Tawfiq for that.Amen.
