Thread alive again ![]() |
qeemus:Actually I mentioned the same tírà in this thread few months ago. I even screenshot and posted part of it at behest of emekaraj when we were discussing virtues of Yasin. Unfortunately I can't remember the page but it is this thread. You gonna have to do some homework by checking previous pages. |
^^ As for me, my sign is i feel happy and light. I just feel excited for absolutely no reason. And by the time I check on the reason behind my dua to begin with, it is exactly where I wanted or how i wanted Allah to answer it. But the most important is, i just feel excited for no reason at all. All other things fall into place. Sometimes, it is not answered directly but indirect. Therefore, i do pay close attention to details. For instance two year ago, i had a debt to pay off ($40k) but balance remained 15k. I had 5 yrs to pay it off but this amounts to interest and fees which i wanted to avoid by any means necessary. So if i was to pay off in 5 yrs as scheduled, i would end up paying additional 10k total of $50k at the end of the loan in 5 yrs. Interestingly, the company that issued my loan offers 'promotion' in form of a question. You click and answer the question and it disappeared forever until they announce winner. Winner would have his loan paid off in full regardless of balance left on the loan. It was just one question and that's it. Result is read once every October but you must register before October. So a month before result was read, i went to masjid not too far from me just to pray maghrib and 'accidentally' picked up a 'tira' with compilation of dua. It is only 3 sura in it but technically arranged. Sura Yasin, Mulk and Kahf. You are to recite sura yasin and stop at every mubin and say your niyah and also read small dua written in every mubin. So i did this overnight 3 weeks before result was read. When result came out, it is only 1 person they needed out of millions of people they loaned. Wallahi i was not recognized at all. I accepted my fate but i had feelings that my dua was answered without any doubt bcus, as i said earlier, i always feel excited for no reason and i did after making this dua. After Oct 2017 passed, just a week or 2 in November, my insurance company issued me a check for $5k. I called them to ask what it is about?. They said it is my entitlement. I can't be more than happy. I quickly put this toward my 15k balance. Now i have 10 left. Then, one idiot who owed me money all these yrs that i didnt even talked to anymore for over 5yrs sent me a check enclosed with letter apologizing to me and saying how it was not his fault. That was $2k i added. Now i have 8k left. The new insurance company i just signed up with at the time said i have paid too much upfront and the execcess is due to me. This is $4k. Do the math. Also, back in 2008, there was class action lawsuit against a company that defrauded consumers including me. The case was the company versus the govt. Govt fought on our behalf in court and this check also came in round that time. Everything i am talking about happened simultaneously btw November and December 2017. So i received check in the mail for this which is 80% of my outstanding debt. and the remaining balance is peanut that i paid out of my pocket. I couldn't thank God enough bcus i was thinking of how to pay off this debt without accruing riba for 5 yrs. I raised this loan to buy shares. Now, bcus i was able to pay off this loan in a yr, i quickly sold back my shares to another bank for half of the original loan and make 50% back. This was good bcus if i had waited 5yrs, my shares would lose value and most likely would be sold for peanut by 2023. So i sold my shares in January 2018 and debt free. So dont think prayers are in vain. We learned in hadith that Allah answers dua 3 ways: He answers dua right away or Answers your dua by not giving you what you asked for but He(swt) shields you from danger or He holds your dua till the Day of Judgement to get full reward |
movado19:Just got distracted by other interest contributions in this thread plus i do run errands back n forth. Will continue shortly but nothing really much. |

ifyalways:why are you all complaining. Don't people die in Europe and US hospitals due to negligence?. Don't blame India. Blame your country that was supposedly freed in 1960 but her citizens still live under a dollar a day in 2019. What he took his mother to India for could be treated in Nigeria and she had still die. He just wasted money by choice. Now he has to spend money to transport her remain to nija. Another wasteful spending. All Nigerians brain need reset |
ChristianNorth:eating or drinking something is not always required. It is just A+ or done to close a wound or exit |
I'm student too.. Learning here as well. Hummm this jabbariya brothers are talking about, let's understand that one thing is to get it first. This is first step from miles away. Another thing are the conditions. I believe this is where services come to play. Another thing is being able to recite efficiently like the way we recite other sura. Well, this may be easy actually with time. Another thing entirely is to have time. I believe I posted screenshots narrative experience of friend of my sheikh. Very important to know this too but it is not a must. Greed has no place. The man is so greedy that he wanted to eat from the meat of his slaughtered ram or cow (he never slaughtered cow anyways). I am not saying it is Haram to eat from your sacrificial ram or cow but it slows things down a little. Meat is discributed to people and these people make Dua for you. This sacrifice and dua they make after you done with recitation of jabbariya, Yasin and its khutba is like a arrow shoot to the sky. It goes up and your status elevated |
movado19:chai, waec puzzles all over again ![]() We will see. |
Amakavula:Ask Peter Griffin from Rhode Island and he will tell you Trump is cash poor who only lives on borrowed money from the bank ![]() |
Trottle:I was going to say this few days ago, that it is not written in simple Arabic script but sana'a manuscript or style just like uthmanic but I decided to keep mute. That's exactly how my grandpa and my sheikh used to recite it. I understand exactly what you taking about. So you just confirmed this tírà
|
aadoiza:they simply don't believe in the Hadith in regards to this. If you call them kafir because of this now like they do to others hell will loose. |
We talked about this yesterday, right. But someone said they could have been people of Qatif, Saudi Arabia not Riyadh. Riyadh people don't have the ball.
|
aadoiza:Titobi ni fun olohun. Subhanallah! Great ending. See what I like about death?. When it gives signs and time to prepare than sudden one. Take a look at Ali Bannat's story. Death gave him time to retract his steps and prepare himself for eternity. May Allah bless and grant your dad Jannah fir'daus. Ameen |
aadoiza:The video dey for YouTube. was just shaking my head |
Empiree:I remembered inscription on the bottle he handed me. They wrote "non-alcoholic beer". See deception and confusion?. They want to scatter our head. They are telling us it is beer but not alcohol? ![]() |
movado19:brother, we live in a deceptive world. I will not be deceived by their antics. Why would they label the bottle champagne when they know for a fact that champagne denotes Haram drinks?. I am always skeptical about all these things. It is not new to me. I went to a store with a "uncle" 4yrs ago. He's Christian. Actually he's Mr. A I talked about in his thread. He bought two bottles of beer and gave me one. I said no. He said it is not beer ómó Alhaji. They just wrote the name on it. Something like "beer water". I said nope and he smiled. Shaytan is stupid. That's how they get you to drink alcohol even if the so called "Saudi champagne" is free of alcohol. How Will you know if in the future they actually mix alcohol in it?. It is a trick and Qur'an warned us in sura Maida that shaytan has given up hope about our religion from leading us astray, therefore we should not follow him in small things. I don't know if you watched Sheikh Assim some years ago (still on YouTube) boasting about he drinks beer made in Saudi Arabia and he's proud of it?. He then tried to justify by saying alcohol content is only 2%?. As far as I am concerned, I don't care if the content is halal for as long as the label is Haram. They want to mislead people, especially Muslims. It is worst when muslim leaders do things from back door than kufar who do it from front door. Did Nabi Muhammad (saw) not say this ummah would commit Zina but they would give it another name?. It is the same with the so called "Saudi champagne" so that you think "it is Saudi it must be right. It is gotta be halal champagne". They play with our mental faculty. Shame on the devil. Why don't they simply call it what it is, Tonic water, soda(soft drink), orange juice etc?. This is why oyinbo are honest sometimes (I'm not giving them credit) but they are usually sincere. When I went to Germany, in my hotel room's mini fridge it is a mini bar. They put in there side by side tonic water, orange juice, apple juice. Bottle water. And on the other side in the same fridge it is different types of beers they have there. This is clear. Why would Saudi or any muslim country attempts to create confusion?. So, in my opinion, and my opinion is not binding on anymore. I say avoid it 100% because this is what I do anytime I go to shop at superstore. I simply avoid alcohol beverages section altogether. Growing up I was trained to have nothing to do with beer, alcohol, champagne liquor etc and I maintained this standards till date. There are too much confusions in the world already. Ulama don't need to add more. Go to France they now have halal pork. The poultry says on their building "halal meat". But the truck that came to deliver meat actually delivered pigs. See what I'm talking about? And it is Arab owned poultry. As always, one may drink if no option left. |
aadoiza:In my opinion, it is the same. For instance, someone is used to sending salawat on the Prophet (saw) to the point of death. The last minutes of his life he says, "Allaahuma Salli ala Sayyidina Muhammadin wasalim" Obviously, there is evidence in the Qur'an which says whoever loves nabi Muhammad Allah loves him (her). So by default, it is acceptable. And ofcourse there are many ahadith to back this up too. Likewise someone is used to saying, "Laa Hawla Walaquwata ila bilah" and he utters these words the last seconds of his life is acceptable as far as I am concerned because the person negates all powers, all sovereigns except Allahu. This can be found in sura Al-Imran. And Allaah knows best |
true2god:sorry bro, 1.2b holding a creed is not a joke. That's close to Muslim population altogether. And even Protestants are still guilty bcus they themselves called Jesus God and son of God. What's the difference between you two. You are all guilty of idolatry. By trying to lure Sunni and Shia into this must be really painful to you. Shia and Sunni do not deviate from basic belief. So I don't know what belief you talking about. Both major factions believe in Allah and none of them believe Jesus or muhammad is god.. this is fundamental believe but CHRISTIANs can't make bold statement about who is God without overwhelming contradictions. On the spirit from Allah issue, you are a product of the Union between your parents and you are never from 'any spirit from Allah'. You and i do not have any divine conception without sexual intercourse prior birth. Don't write your own Quran.forget about your and I. Fine, we are products of the union of our parents. But how about Adam?. He had no parents. At least Jesus had mother. Adam should be greater god then. |
true2god:Catholic is the largest christian sect estimated at 1.2 billion headed by pope which is recognized worldwide as the christian leader. It is the same institution that harbors pedophilias and subsequently sweep their crimes under the carpet. So you can see christianity is not in line with Jesus bcus you just confirmed the statement goes against mainstream. But catholic is mainstream being the largest. See how guilty christianity is?. You are definitely not following Jesus. Jesus, according to the Quran, is the spirit of Allah. What's the difference between 'the spirit from Allah' and Allah himself? Are you also a spirit from Allah? Is Mohammed a spirit from Allah?what are you insinuating after you have confirmed catholic is wrong?. Jesus being "spirit of Allah" means God to you?. The same way Jesus was created by spirit of Allah which was breath into him was breathed into every human being including you and I. Here, Allah says He breath into Adam (human generally as He breath into Jesus) "When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him." Q15:29 If Adam is not God, me and you are not God, what makes Jesus God bcus he is Allah's spirit just like Adam, you and I? |
aadoiza:Sheikh ke. Me no be sheikh ooo ![]() Let me give my opinion on this but I can be wrong. OPC from what we know is their practices most likely are in conflict with Islamic Sharia. I mean their rituals not the essence. Essence is to protect whatever it is they protect. So being a member is implication on its own. We do not have details of Alfa in question. My question is, is it possible to be a member and not practically involved with OPC ritual activities or swear allegiance to their deities that are not in harmony with Islam?. In my opinion, I believe it is possible unless if OPC policy says every member must perform these rituals regardless of their religion. However if Alfa was just a nominal member but not involved in these rituals, it is possible he was pure muslim. The way I see it is that OPC is a group who sworn to protect lives and properties just like police force. But they are traditional. This means intention or essence is halal but activities may be haram and kufr if every members must perform kufr rituals. I honestly do not know much about OPC beyond the name but I do know for sure that their activities lean on alawo stuff. So if Alfa was just a nominal opc member for career only I don't see anything wrong here for as long as he was not involved in their kufr. Islam allows for all people living in the same nation regardless of religion to work together to ensure security and safety and development. So for saying shahadah the last seconds of his life in this sense may avail him in the Hereafter. But if he was actively involved in their kufr and rituals that are in conflict with Islam, saying shahadah will not avail him one bit. However, La ilaha ila Allah is a very powerful phrase and a promise of Allah to aide whoever says the words. But Quran teaches that when Pharaoh was drowing he declared his faith in Allah and became Muslim And We took the Children of Israel across the sea, and Pharaoh and his soldiers pursued them in tyranny and enmity until, when drowning overtook him, he said, "I believe that there is no deity except that in whom the Children of Israel believe, and I am of the Muslims." But Allah replied him (which only fir'aun could understand) Now? And you had disobeyed [Him] before and were of the corrupters? Now it gets interesting in the next Ayah to proof to us the power of La ilaha ila Allah Allah respects the statement of shahadah and would not let it go in vain. Because of this it is La ilaha ila Allah that preserved Pharaoh's physical body not some chemical. So today We will preserve your physical body that you may be sign to those who to come after you . And indeed, many among the people, of Our signs, are heedless sura 10 So Allah did not allow his pronunciation of shahadah to waste. He favored him by preserving his physical material body. This is the power of LA ILAHA ILA ALLAH. So either of this is similar to condition of this Alfa. That's why it is difficult to pronounce a Muslim kafir if the person insist he's Muslim. Although there was this story we were told that Pharaoh could not say shahada. He only said "laa" but Quran affirmed said he affirmed his faith but it was too late Wallahu alam |
true2god:you don't need to get Muslims in this anymore. You have to present evidence that Muslims worship Muhammad at his grave. We are allowed to visit his grave and send salawat on him. Some may also seek his tawasul. This is not idolatry. Unless a Muslim specifically do something contrary to Sharia at his grave, but we are yet to see that. Aren't you Catholic? If you denounce them for saying Mary is mother of God, the implication is that you don't believe Jesus is God. I'm I right? |

movado19:In my opinion, make a U-TURN by relocating to the remote countryside where cell phones have hard time to connect. You ready to do this in this day and age?. So you can see why some of the shuyukh went to the bushes to do dhikr like Sheikh Nda solati (ra). But we have modern Alfa today criticized them. One Alfa said they went there to invoke Jinn and that there is no Sunnah record for this practice. They don't understand. In another word, it is not easy to get close to Allah in megacities. Too much fitan left and right. It is not easy to come by a lot of these knowledge, and I sometimes feel sorry for the people who do nothing but bark because if one looks closely into thier lives, they did nothing but what is now termed as secular Islam.well, it is tedious efforts. The first thing is to humble oneself to Sheikh which many of us young people don't do anymore. We can see that clearly on this platform. They are ready to talk trash about a sheikh especially if he's Sufi. Most of the Islamic knowledge on the internet today are usually base on external observation and devoid of spiritual essence. You would think there is no knowledge beyond external observation. I would suggest to those brothers and sisters who were not opportuned to to grow up in such islamic environment to ensure their children acquire this knowledge if they can't. The world has changed which makes it difficult to return to this golden age. Modern Western Civilization wants to ensure they take religion out of our way of life and we are helping them with modern islamic ideology. So remote countryside and ability to humble and serve would be great way to go about this. Another problem is finding the right sheikh. It is so unfortunate that there are many shuyukh today who are waliy of shaytan. From them emerged the worse beneath the sky. But authentic ones are still around for sure. Even authentic ones would do crazy things to test you as Sheikh Hamza Yusuf and Sheikh Ninowy rightly said. Sheik Hamza Yusuf said you have to be humble enough to pass through that process. I served under my Sheikh for 20yrs overall but 14 years of this was the real deal. Wallahi, nkan be in Islam. If you know you know. If you don't know you don't. We got to the point where a man wanted to spend millions of dollars for my sheikh just to marry his girlfriend. It was crazy. I was actively involved in this back then. Had to use his own saliva to write ountu at some point. This is why my Sheikh respect me more bcuz others refused to do it. Whatever services you render your Sheikh will not be in vain. I remembered his saliva stank but I finished it. The man is the father of Akinuoye Agbaje who featured in American movie, The Mummy. He was a lawyer and berger secretary. He was just given money to us anyhow before and after his prayers were answered. Don't mind pastors. They have nothing. This Agbaje man was CHRISTIAN but finally humbled himself when my sheikh told him to keep his money if he could not come and present himself in person. He felt too big to come from Lagos. He would only send his driver to send message. When he was told to keep his money, he realized that this must be authentic Alfa. The man was freaking rich to the point that his girlfriend then stole #500m from him and he said he didn't mind as long as she married him but the woman didn't want that. See how this old man go to any length bcuz of a woman?. |
LadunaI:I understand. If I do, unfortunately I won't say I do bcus of pressure here. Babas don't want this Dua to become yèyé. This young Alfa I was talking about earlier told me he got jabbariya when I was talking about it. I was surprised actually. And I understood why he was fortunate to get it. He's devoted one. He has all three (3). Jabbariya Yasin Khutba Yasin These are enough to make it in life. Again, I truly appreciate jamo90. The brother made me proud last year or 2017 when he sent me email and he even screenshot khutba Yasin and I know he got the right one when I read first few lines exactly like the one my Sheikh has. I think they gave him Khutba but they didn't give him jabbariya. So this young Alfa I'm talking about served a sheik in Kano. From the way he talks and experiences he narrated to me shows he deserves to acquire jabbariya. They won't give jabbariya to a part time muslim. They rather die with it than to give it up. You know many don't have strong muslim background which further makes it difficult. This doesn't mean they are being greedy. See what the world turned today. So scary. My advice is to simply let Alfa organize Dua for you (I don't mean you personally) instead of trying to acquire it. That's what we used to do. But it now cost money to even organize this Dua these days bcuz other people are involved that must get paid. |
true2god:why do you think I should engage you on clear cut practices unless you wanna deceive yourself?. Catholics say "Mary mother of God". Do muslims say this of muhammad?. We only send peace and blessings upon him. |
movado19:your uncle is right, wallahi. Exactly what we did back then. Cow must be slaughtered because this is a very powerful Dua. Online ke?. Jabbariya is not online. Go offline to those baba. And I don't think they would give you even if you want to pay. Jamo90 tried to pay to get it but the man turned him down according to him. My sheik served his sheikh for 12yrs to obtain this. This is why jabbariya is called a'dua awón agbalagba. It has 'majemu" covenant. To those who may be wondering what's is Dua jabbariya?. It is derived from Jabar. Jabar is Allah's Name which means "The Compeller" |
COMPARING ISLAM WITH SOCIAL VICES – Lucas Bashir (http://knowislam.com.ng/comparing-islam-with-social-vices/) I took some time to research on major negative changes in the world in the past two hundred years. As much as these changes are saddening, it brings utmost grieve to the heart knowing these changes are prevalent in the society today and they are not just waxing stronger, the propagators use everything available to spread them while those who should stand against them are compromising due to being labelled as repugnant and archaic. Homosexuality is a vice that is old dating back to the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah recorded in religious texts. These immoral act gained ground and legalized in certain countries in the 21st century. It gets more unfortunate when a priest can choose not to wed a man and woman but could be imprisoned for not wedding a gay couple. The world has failed in crying against this barbaric act rather those who go against them are seen as barbaric. Much more unfortunate when you realize a country that swears in her president using the bible legalizes this act yet the pages where Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed for this act are not torn off. In recent years, we have witnessed the rise of feminism with meninism now coming to limelight. The campaigners of this ideology do not actually teach equality rather they propagate hatred employing curses and insults just like atheists. Not too long ago (as at the time of this publication), I promised to write a rebuttal to a feminist called Nkechi Bianze. My rebuttal was met by being blocked on Facebook. Most feminists are products of broken homes, have horrible childhood or have met men who have hurt them instead of loving a woman how they should. Feminism as an ideology is based on emotion not on intellectual grounds. The above mentioned feminist created a match making page where women meet men. why a feminist?. Funnily, the first four posts are women seeking men. In the world today, we see people who call for gender equality. They want men and women to be granted equal rights, feminism is a branch of this. In a response to Dr Ijabla who wrote an article clamouring for gender equality, I explained why we should ask for EQUITY instead of equality. If we were to take the meaning of equality into cognizance, there would be no priority sitting, women will not be granted maternity leave, no sick leave etc. In implementing equality,a family consisting of the father, mother, four children who are 17, 14, 10 and 2 years old respectively will feed on the same food of the same measure for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Explaining to Dr. Ijabla on why we should ask for equity not equality, I pointed out that equity is fairness in all situations. A man has right over and duties to a woman and vice versa. To read my response to Dr. Ijabal on this topic, visit this link http://knowislam.com.ng/359-2/. At the end of the day, Dr. Ijabla agreed with me on this. In the Yoruba and Indian movie industry, we have witnessed moral degeneration at its climax. Who knows that the likes of Jide Kosoko who starred in the movie “Ogbori Elomosho” would after 10-15 years act in a movie with ladies in skimpy skirts being kissed and fondled by those old enough to be their father. Who knows that civilization will take off the clothes of Indian actresses. About 15 years ago (as at the time of this publication), children can sit down with parents to watch a full movie, but now, it is not possible without a sense of guilt on the part of the parents since the scenes are full of nudity. The music industry is nothing to write home about. While the male singers continue to be dressed, the female singers and dancers shamelessly grace our TV screens with pants and bras. It is rare to find a video in hip-hop where nudity is not displayed. The church is not excluded. The church is know to have moved with time, compromising many of its tenets for what is in trend. It is now common for Christians to say Christianity is not a religion because religion is being stigmatized given the advent of atheists. Christianity remains a religion so far it involves believing in a supernatural controlling power and worship of a deity. The changes are so many and they have affected almost all life sections. Islam as a religion as not changed and will never change though the same cannot be said of many who lay claim to being Muslims. while true Muslims continue ti contribute to science, technology and other life sectors, the fundamental teachings of Islam has not changed and will never change. Allah is the guardian of Islam, we are the custodian. We will not in the name of liberalism, civilization make homosexuality, nudity, alcohol consumption etc permissible. Those who have been at the receiving end of these vices know it is not to their advantage and we will not compromise to join them rather we will exert efforts i propagating what is right that they may know. Those who who have lost loved ones to alcohol, those who have lost their properties to interest based loans know what it is to be at the receiving end of these vices. On no grounds are we going to accept any ideology or interpretation of Qur’an verses that are not know to be from prophet Muhammad (pbuh), the companions and the salafs. Be it a sheikh or professor, Islam is not for modernists or orientalists. If a man takes what is bitter and makes a face as if that which is bitter is sweet, if he takes what is sweet and makes a face as if that which is sweet is bitter, in few seconds, he will make a face that appears he has taken what is sweet to that which is sweet and to that which is bitter, he will eventually make a face that tells he has taken what is better. Such is the similitude between what is right and what is wrong. No matter how long people believe lies or throw themselves in delusion, the truth remains the truth. If interest free loans in Islam is barbarism and the modern day banking is civilization, I will rather remain barbaric than being civilized. Bashir Lucas Samson Lukman |
movado19:I like jamo90 bcuz, he's not here just reading and praising. He goes out to physically do research and I am so amazed by that. As for this, it is all tírà. Babas made it easy for us by extracting them. In ideal Sufi manhaj, they recite khutba Yasin after reciting Yasin. What I said is not easy faah. I know exactly how my Sheikh struggled through this those years. And he didn't do just for people all the time but for himself too. |

Those who who have lost loved ones to alcohol, those who have lost their properties to interest based loans know what it is to be at the receiving end of these vices. On no grounds are we going to accept any ideology or interpretation of Qur’an verses that are not know to be from prophet Muhammad (pbuh), the companions and the salafs. Be it a sheikh or professor, Islam is not for modernists or orientalists. If a man takes what is bitter and makes a face as if that which is bitter is sweet, if he takes what is sweet and makes a face as if that which is sweet is bitter, in few seconds, he will make a face that appears he has taken what is sweet to that which is sweet and to that which is bitter, he will eventually make a face that tells he has taken what is better. Such is the similitude between what is right and what is wrong. No matter how long people believe lies or throw themselves in delusion, the truth remains the truth. If interest free loans in Islam is barbarism and the modern day banking is civilization, I will rather remain barbaric than being civilized. Bashir Lucas Samson Lukman |
aadoiza:yes, I'm still around. Just taking my time and trying to get over distraction here |
aadoiza: movado19:you honestly need to get close to a brother called jamo90. I must mention his moniker bcuz, he quietly learned here. I no go lie he shocked me when he researched everything I narrated in terms of tassawuf from "Jinn Stories" created by tbaba in 2012 and this one. The brother quietly learned incognito in this platform. One day, he surprised me with a email he sent me that he followed by advice to look for Dua I mentioned in this thread and that thread and concluded that I was saying the truth. But unfortunately he wanted to get the tírà from one baba who declined to hand it over to him even for money. I told him it is understandable why baba would not give it up like that. It is jabbariya that our baba called "jabaru". It is tírà awón Alfa agbalagba. If they invoke this jabbaru filled with more than 99Names and Attributes of Allah, Allah will respond lesekese. Allah Akbar. You get to see wonders. Go and read Jinn Stories thread where I made reference to this. But today, even if those baba give you for free you may never know the value. It is a lifetime treasure if only you can sit and make this dua. But then, after doing it you must make some sacrifices like big ram or cow and distribute the meat people to eat. It is one powerful Dua coupled with Yasin and it's khutba. This is what my Sheikh lives on till this day. But it doesn't mean one can't have tribulations. |
