Wisdom by a Sufi Master of Our Time Talks given in 1995 by a Sufi master of our time in England, Germany, Switzerland and Italy. Transcribed by Thyra Quensel.

Excerpt: Meditation Most masters today present the method of meditation to you. But usually they do not base on Christianity, or Judaism or Islam, so many people think that it is a method which originated within other religions. But that is not the case. Meditation was a method which was already given to the first man, within the first message, to the first Messenger. What purpose does meditation serve, and how can we reach such a state? It is mentioned in all our Holy Books: the Thora, the Gospels and in the Holy Quran, as a method to reach Divine Presence. When we come face to face with our Creator, we leave everything else behind. Nothing remains except your soul. If I would come and try to hit you with a sword, you would not be harmed. Nothing can touch you physically in such a state, because your physical body will have entered your spiritual being. Normally it is the opposite: our souls are imprisoned in the physical body. In a perfect state of meditation, your souls cover your physical body and you become a spirit. There was once a Grandsheik, Sheik Abdul Qadir al Jilani. While he was meditating he kept saying, "I am the truth!" People around him were offended by this and started attacking him with swords, but nothing happened to him. They could not touch him. When Maulana Rumi was in real meditation, he would be whirling and lift off the ground. He had full connection with the Divine Presence. According to our traditional knowledge, rneditation has so many steps before reaching the top point. If you keep those rules, real meditation can come to you any time. Everyone must try within the rules which exist in their religion, to praise the Lord first, in the way the prophets taught us. We can then sit in a silent place, preferably in the dark, cover ourselves and withdraw from everything around us. We should not hear or feel anything, only think that we are one within the existence of the Lord Almighty Allah in the Divine Presence. Even if it only lasts for 5 minutes, it will give us power. This will then increase and make peace-falcons out of peace-doves. If a terrorist even looks at you, he will fall down. With meditation you can attain ultra-power. Don't think that meditation is something easy. It is the most important power which has been given to mankind.

Wisdom by a Sufi Master of Our Time Talks given in 1996 in Germany and Great Britain by a Sufi Master of our time. Transcribed by von Thyra Quensel.

Excerpt: Try to be Holy! Islam teaches humanity the most precious characteristics of mankind. It tries to take man from the lowest level to the highest. That is the mission of Islam and the mission of all prophets. All of them declared this. The last prophet came with the Last Message of the Lord. He is calling you to be clean and to come to His Divine Presence. Oh believers, oh mankind, try to be clean in your physical body, in your thoughts, in your hearts, in your mind, in your work and in all your dealings. Try to be serious and sincere for your divine service. Do the other religions; Christianity or Judaism teach anything else? Try to be true, trustworthy and beloved by the people around you. Try to make many more friends here. That will make you happy here and in the hereafter. Don't make enemies! Don't be envious! Try to give your best service to your Lord the Almighty Allah. Give your best to everybody in the big family of mankind. Then you will be holy and you will be accepted within the Divine Presence. You will be rewarded with enlightenment. Be an enlightened person, don't be without lights. You will be asked if you are bringing any lights from this life. Try to take the lights of Heaven with you from this life to the next, to the hereafter. 157 pages, Paperback

Mystical Secrets of the Last Days


Author: Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Adil al-Haqqani
ISBN: 9780934905275
Pages: 136 pages

In these lectures to residents of a Hindu community in Switzerland, the Shaykh unveils the mystical secrets of the last days. Speaking from heart knowledge, the reader learns about Armageddon, Anti-Christ, the expected coming of the Mahdi and the second coming of Jesus. Those who wish to prepare for these events, which many expect may happen soon, must treat their evil side of the ego, for it is this side of the ego that stands in the way of human perfection.

About the Author:
Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani is the world leader of the most distinguished Naqshbandi order of Sufis. Shaykh Nazim is both a scholar of the Divine Law, being the mufti of Turkish Cyprus, as well s the Shaykh of the Way (tariqah).
A resident of Turkish Cyprus, he was born in Larnaca, Cyprus on April 23, 1922. He is a descendant of the family of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and the mercy of God be upon him, on both his mother and his father's side, being both a Hasani and Husayni Sayyid. On his father's side, he is a descendant of Sayyid Abdul Qadir Gilani, the founder of the Qadiri Sufi order and n his mother's side, his ancestry comes from Jalal al-Din Rumi, the founder of the Mawlawi Sufi order.
Shaykh Nazim finished high school in Cyprus in 1940. He then traveled to Istanbul for higher education. He studied at the University of Istanbul, completing an MA in Chemical Engineering. During his years in Istanbul, he also completed the requirements of the Divine Law and Arabic language. He received his permission from Shaykh Jamal al-Lassuni. Shaykh Nazim then directed his attention to the study of the spiritual path of seven Sufi orders: Naqshbandi, Chishti, Qadiri, Mawlawi, Rifai, Shadhili and Badawi. He then increased his study of the Naqshbandi order under his shaykh at that time, Sulayman Arzurumi. After a few years. Shaykh Sulayman told him, O my son, the one who is carrying your secrets is not me, but my spiritual teacher who migrated from Daghistan to Turkey and who is now residing in Damascus in the Median district. He is known as the Master of the Golden Chain of the Naqshbandi order in our time.
Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani then moved to Syria. On the way to Damascus, he first visited Aleppo, Hama and Homs. In Homs, under the direction of his Shaykh, stayed for one year in seclusion in the mosque and tomb of the famous Companion of the Prophet, Khalid ibn Walid. There he received more intensive instruction in the Divine Law, the Traditions and the Science of the Quran under the Shaykhs Muhammad Ali Uyun as-Suud, Abdul Aziz Uyun as-Suud, mufti of Homs, Abdul Jalil Murad and Sayyid as-Subai, who are all Naqshbandi shaykhs as well as famous scholars of the Traditions and religious scholars of the Divine Law.
In 1944 he moved to Tripoli, Lebanon, where he was the guest of Shaykh Munir al-Malik, the mufti of northern Lebanon and Shaykh of the Qadir, Rifai and Naqshbandi Sufi orders. In 1945 he went from Tripoli to Damascus to Hai al-Midan where he finally met Shaykh Abdullah ad-Daghistan an-Naqshbandi. He stayed with his Grand Shaykh until his Grand Shaykh passed away on October 4, 1973. During that period of almost forty years, Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani continued to receive the heavenly foundation of spiritual knowledge which poured forth from the heart of Shaykh Abdullah ad-Daghistani into his heart.
Shaykh Nazim continuously traveled to the Middle East and Turkey during these 40 years. Upon the death of his Grand Shaykh and by his spiritual order, he enlarged his scope of travel to include Europe, America and the Far East. He established hundreds of centers all over the world, spreading Islam together with Sufi spiritual knowledge which has brought hundreds of thousands of converts to Islam. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he is the mujaddid of this century as was Sayyid Abdul Qadir Gilani, in his time; Shah Bahaudin Naqshband, in his time; Sayyid Ahmad al-Faruqi, in his time; and Jalal al-Din Rumi, in his time.
Shaykh Nazim carries the secret of seven Sufi orders: Naqshband, Chishti, Qadiri, Mawlana, Rifai, Shadhili and Badawi, through a chain of authorization from his master, Shaykh Abdullah ad-Daghistani, through the chain of 39 Grand Shaykhs linking him to the Prophet.
He has entered many seclusions during his lifetime ranging in duration from 40 days to one year. These took place in many different places including the Prophet's city, Madinah, Baghdad in the presence of Sayyid Abdul Qadir Gilani, Konya in the presence of Jalal al-Din Rumi and Damascus at many holy places. He has written numerous books on spirituality and Divine Knowledge (gnosis) which have been published throughout the world. He has written many poems on Divine Law in both Arabic and Turkish. He is a source for many modern juristic matters. He follows a moderate line in approaching people and issues of contemporary life.
Shaykh Nazim has a very charismatic personality which moves people and attracts them to the manifestation of Divine Love which continues to pour forth from his heart. His resplendent smile is ever present. When he speaks, it is as if a divinely-inspired waterfall had been opened connecting has heart to the hearts of the listeners. It is that nectar of love that draws thousands of new converts to Islam every year.

Dinarasikan dengan gaya pemaparan cerita tua yang memikat, serial spiritual tingkat tinggi ini menawarkan beberapa volume pedoman praktis bagaimana membangun ketenangan dan kedamaian dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, menyembuhkan bekas-bekas luka spiritual dan emosional, dan menemukan peranan diri kita masing-masing dalam skema universal.

Kutipan: “Kita harus mengabdikan diri kita untuk mencari pengetahuan tentang hati; pengetahuan yang akan membawa kita menuju tujuan jiwa kita. Sampainya kita pada tujuan kita akan ditandai oleh kedamaian batin yang semakin dalam; sebagaimana sebuah kapal berlayar dengan baik di samudra yang dalam, jiwa juga sangat senang menyelam di Samudera Pengetahuan Ilahiah. Pikiran kalian mempunyai batasan, namun tidak demikian dengan hati kalian, karena hati merupakan wadah atau ruang penyimpanan dengan kapasitas yang tak terbatas. Tetapi, kalian harus membuka hati kalian terhadap pengetahuan ini, karena tidak ada yang bisa lewat dari sesuatu yang tertutup.”

Kutipan: “Apakah setiap orang berpikir bahwa samudra itu hanyalah apa yang tampak di permukaannya? Dengan mengamati corak dan pergerakannya, mata yang tajam bisa mengenali indikasi mengenai kedalaman samudera yang tak terduga itu. Rahmat dan kasih sayang Allah adalah sebuah samudra tanpa tepi, memberikan pemandangan yang bervariasi bagi siapa yang berlayar di permukaannya; tetapi kekaguman terbesar dan pencapaiannya disediakan bagi “makhluk lautan” itu di mana rahmat itu menjadi media bagi mereka sendiri. Tuhan memberi isyarat kepada kita melalui sebuah cinta Ilahiah dan daya tarik yang telah ditanamkan dalam hati kita, sebuah cinta yang dapat dipahami dan dirasakan secara sadar sebagai cinta Ilahi oleh beberapa orang, atau hanya secara tidak langsung sebagai cinta kepada makhluk-makhluk-Nya oleh yang lainnya. Dalam kasus keduanya tarikan dari tali-temali hati kita membawa kita ke Samudra Kasih Sayang tersebut, seperti tubuh fisik kita yang merasa tenggelam dalam samudra yang hangat dan tenang.”

Narrated in a charming, old-world storytelling style, this highly spiritual series offers several volumes of practical guidance on how to establish serenity and peace in daily life, heal emotional and spiritual scars, and discover the role we are each destined to play in the universal scheme.

Excerpt: “We have devoted our lives to seeking knowledge of the heart; knowledge that will carry us to our soul's destination. Our arrival will be signaled by a profound inner peace; as a ship sails best in deep ocean waters, so the soul loves to swim in the ocean of Divine Knowledge. Your minds have limits, but not your hearts, for they are receptacles of endless capacity. But, you must open your hearts to this knowledge, as nothing may pass through what is closed.”

Excerpt: “Does anyone think that the ocean is only what appears on its surface? By observing its hue and motion the keen eye may perceive indications of that ocean's unfathomable depth. The Lord's mercy and compassion are an ocean with no shore, providing endlessly varied vistas for those who sail its surface; but the greatest wonderment and fulfillment is reserved for those "creatures of the sea" for whom that mercy has become their own medium. The Lord beckons us through a divine love and attraction that has been implanted in our hearts, a love that may be understood and felt consciously as divine by some, and only indirectly as love for His creatures or creation by others. In either case the pull of our heartstrings draws us to those Mercy Oceans, just as our physical bodies feel drawn to a warm and gentle sea.”
