“THE SPREAD
OF THE FAYDA TIJANIYYA TO ALL THE HORIZONS”
{Letter #4:
From The Discourses of Shaykh Al-Islam Alhajj Ibrahim Niasse(RA)}
Source:
Kitaab Jawaahir ar-Rasaa’il (The Book of
Essential Letters)
Compiled by: Shaykh Ahmad Abu’l Fat’hi (Maiduguri,
Nigeria)
Interpreted from the Arabic by:
Muhammad Abdullahi al-Tijani al-Ibrahimi (Georgia,
Atlanta [USA])
In
The Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful
All
thanks and praise belongs to Allah, The Lord of all the worlds. The Most
Gracious, The Most Merciful. The Master of the Day of Judgment.
After
this: I am sending this greeting of perfect peace from a servant who is
absolutely enriched by his Master and Lord to be completely independent of
everything but Him, Ibrahim ibn Al-Hajj Abdullahi al-Tijani.
This
letter is written to my beloved, the sincere Murid of my father, al-Hassan
Jaayin. You should know that I am writing this to give sincere advice to
you--by Allah and for Allah--knowing that you are a true servant of Allah and a
disciple of Shaykh Ahmad al-Tijani(RA). Surely Allah, Glorious & Exalted is
He!--in His Eternal Wisdom--has decided to pour out (Ifada) this Spiritual
Flood in the Tariqa Tijaniyya upon the hand of its owner(RA), and the Holder of
the Fayda Tijaniyya (Sahib al-Fayda) can place it wherever he so chooses, by
the Decree of the Almighty, the All-Powerful (Al-Aziz Al-Jabbar).
Al-Hajj Ibrahim Niasse & Emir Ado Bayero |
I am
warning you to not be among those who are seeking to put out the Light of
Allah--out of mercy & compassion--not due to worrying about the spread of
the Fayda, because it will spread by the Might & Power of Allah! Whosoever
desires to conceal it will only help it to spread! Whosoever seeks to turn
people away from it and its bringer will only turn people from him and not it!
Look with the eye of your heart and you will see the veracity and truth of my
words. There is nothing that can take place in the Kingdom of Allah (Mulk)
except that which He Wills! I am advising myself and you to have conscious
awareness of Allah (Taqwa)--in public and in private--and to support the People
of Allah with love, camaraderie, and alliance, in order to receive from them
the gift of Allah. Do not invite (people) to what is not for you! Allah says,
“And follow not that of which you have no knowledge.” (17:36).
Whosoever
desires honor and glory in this life and the Hereafter, let them know that to
Allah belongs all honor and glory! The love of Allah is known by having love for
His people--and they are the Arifin (Gnostics)! Your neighbor, Al-Hajj Muhammad Zaynab
Niasse(RA) is one of the Arifin--and I do not know of anyone who matches him in
Divine Gnosis--so be with him for Allah, in Allah, and by Allah, so that you
can receive benefit from him and also to benefit your students.
Al-Hajj Muhammad Zaynab Niasse(RA) |
No one
will be able to harm you in the least, either in this life or the Hereafter. If
you do not take this advice, Allah will not be not harmed in the least! You
will come to know in this life and the Hereafter that I have (written this
letter due to) love for you and nothing else!
Today I
have love for nothing (but Allah) and Allah is Witness of what I have said!
Give my greeting of peace to everyone, especially to my son named after my
father, Al-Hajj Abdullahi, and his brothers and sisters.
