Ma sha Allah. The list goes on and on. May Allah accept our prayers (dua) and grant our wishes.

However, this hadith esp the bolded part:
zulele: The Last Third Of The Night Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: 'In the last third of every night our Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer) (Allah (SWT)) descends to the lowermost heaven and says; "Who is calling Me, so that I may answer him? Who is asking Me so that...

Suggest what? That Allah is a "body" that occupy a space in the heavens ( e.g sit on a throne or chair) then descend to lower heavens just to accept dua of His Abd (servant).

Literally meaning of this hadith if it is Sahih is ridiculous. However if there are deeper understanding to it in which those words are 'figure of speech', then it makes sense.

The Atharis understood this kind of hadith or verses like that in the Quran as Haqiqi (real) while other muslims interpret it to be 'figure of speech' and never haqiqi.

Quran:
1. Subhana Rabbika Rabbil izati amayasifun...
"Glory be to your Lord, the Lord of majesty, FAR BEYOND WHAT THEY ASCRIBE TO HIM

2. Laysa kamislihi shay...There is nothing like Him

3. Walam yakun lahu kufwan ahad ...and there is none to be compare to Him

Descending, moving from one place to the other is a characteristic of a creature. Allah is far and above His creatures. He doesn't depend on the characteristic of His creature.

Salam

People do say coming together of Sufis (Tijaniyat to be precise) for their Dhikr is Bidi'ah. Please help!!
Pls don't bring these here, islam is only one, all those wordly divisions should have no place in our worship. Let everyone do it the way it believes, we'll all meet with our ultimate creator one day. Let's do the basics successfully first and stand up against the extremist that are attempting to hijack this beautiful religion.

Your problem is evident; just like someone who judge muslims because of the bad deeds of Boko Haram and al-Qaeda. Judging Suffism by the bad eggs of certain "tijaniyyah, Qadiriyyah etc = IGNORANCE.

Who the hell are @underlined^ when Allah declares:
"...Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided
~Quran 16:125

Religiously speaking, Sufiism is not a separate group or sect. Sufiism is renunciation of the worlds and journeying the path of knowing God through purification of soul. Sufiism is in Sunnism, shiism etc. Socially speaking when they now come together as a movement, only then people tag them "the sufis".

Ulamas like Muhammad al-Ghazali, Jalaludeen Suyuti, Imam Subki, Imam AbdulQadri Jilani et al were all "sufis".

@Bolded, who are those, in your imaginations, that follow Sunnah? How come you limit the Sunnah of the prophet (peace be on him and his family) to certain individuals out of what fact? Every muslim sect claim it follows the Sunnah of the holy prophet (peace be on him and his family).

Please dear brother do not be deceived and stop the hatred of sectarianism. Try your best to study Islam through different interpretations of various group of muslims without any bias. Only then you can embark on a sincere research into Islamic knowledge.

U are welcome dear brother.

Yes you are very right. I have them galore in my area also. But the truth is are they the only muslims making charms?

Most of these bad eggs are too fascinated by the karamat (wonders, miracles) of their Imams (like Sheik AbdulQadir Jilani, Sheik Ahmad Tijani etc) and instead of adhering to their instructions, they switch to "quick-quick" method of getting things done. Just to impress their immediate followers and society that they are also "sheik" with istijaba. To become saint is not an easy task and since they cannot stand the trials and hardships associated with sainthood, they switch to charms etc.

The worst thing is they will even justify their evil ways by twisting Quran and hadith.
Allah quoted the vow of satan:
"...I will certainly make (evil) fair-seeming to them on earth, and I will certainly cause them all to deviate."
Qur'an 15: 39

May Allah guide our heart aright to accommodate our fellow brothers in faith and in humanity.
