NASIHAH FOR BROTHERS: AFTER TAKING THE TARIQAH

NASIHAH FOR BROTHERS: AFTER TAKING THE TARIQAH

      

    Question:

    Sidi, I took the Tariqah recently, and I need some nasihah from you about spiritual progress, as that is the reason I took the Tariqah in the first place?

    

    Answer:

    As-Salam Alaykum dear Sidi,

    I pray that you are doing well with the Fadl of Allah, the Barakah of the Rasul (SAW) and the Nur of the Tariqah.

    I just want to remind you that the Tariqah is very serious matter, because it is the journey to ALLAH, and nothing is more important for the Abd than the journey to His Rabb.

   To keep our spirit alive, there is nothing better and healthier than to ask Allah for forgiveness (Istighfar), make the spiritual connection with the Habib (through the as-Salat Alan Nabi), and announce Allah’s greatness by saying La Ilah ill’Allah!

    And that is the Wird that the beloved al-Nabi (SAW) instructed our Shaykh Sidi Ahmad al-Tijani (RA) and all his followers to make every day. al-Humdulillah.

  

    Other than that, I advise you to spend some time everyday or every week in the company of good Tijani Muqaddams and brothers, as the Company of Fellow Lovers of Allah is a great cure and medicine for the heart.

    So don’t ever stop the healing process!

    Wa Ilal Amam.

    Also keep me in your prayers after the Awrad and the Wazifah.

  

    Was-Salam,

    Servant of the Tijani Door, 

    Fakhruddin bin Ahmad al-Tijani
