Islam › Re: Jinn Stories by Empiree:
tbaba123, albaqir, lanrexlan, honestly this is an old argument. I still pretty much do solat ibrahimah than the later. Most muslims do solat ibrahimah as least in their public life. I can also praise the prophet (s a w) in my language and it's going to be in line with Sunnah. So i dont see whats the big deal in this. I really dont care about how much hazanot are behind it. All i know is I am praising Nabi Muhammad. It's soliat. This is a very simple issue. Base on tbaba translation of solati fatih, nothing, i mean nothing wrong with it. There are tons of muslims saying both solati fatih and Ibrahima and they have no clue whatsoever where they originated.

If no other way left to appreciate Anobi other than solati fatih, i will prefer it than clubbing. No muslim deny Solati Ibrahimo. This argument is meaningless as far as i can tell.

You mean you don't live in Nigeriahuh How come? But all your stories happened here... Anyway thanks.
Kind of. Actually let me correct myself, Salawat i gave you FATIH OR IBRAHIMAH may be too long for that count. Salawat i forgot at the time of typing is the simple one and easy to do the count. It's "Allahumo salli ala muhammad wasalim" . Easy right? Apologies.

Don't you know solat fatih is bid'ah, haram and shirk? grin grin grin

Many NL members nearly tag me evil for defending the validity of solat fatih in the light of Quran and hadith. Still One of the very best salawat.
I dont have time for them. They too much.
Islam › Re: Best Form Of Tawassul (intercession) - Using The Holy Prophet by Empiree: 12:03am On Nov 22, 2014
AlBaqir:
@bold, I don't think I have ever disagree with that.
Brother, by Allah, I do not in whatever form you might think of, reject this. Please, I beg of you and Sissie google search "dua kumail, dua Mashlool, Jawshan kabir etc". Pls just do me the favor brother. Go through the content. These among other duas are heart of the heart of shi'a muslim. And From the beginning till the end, there's no 'tawassul of the prophet or the ahl al-bayt or the saliheen' at all in these duas.

Personally my humble conclusion is just that I simply can't use or think my deeds, salat, sawm etc are good enough to be tawassul to Allah. In fact, I pray for the acceptance of these acts and not using them as tawassul.

Ma sha Allah! Using names of Allah. If you know Jawshan al-kabir or Du'a Mashlool (which are full of Allah's names as tawassul) then you've known this disobedient servant of the Merciful Lord called Albaqir. Those are my foods.

But what I used most is Muhammad (peace be on him and his ahl al-bayt) because he knows Allah beyond His Asmau'l Husna, and Allah loves him the most to the extent that no prophet had ever claimed this:

Al-Bukhari:
Abu Hurayra said, "The Messenger of Allah (saw), may Allah (swt) bless him and grant him peace, forbade for someone to have both his name and his kunya. He said, 'I am Abu'l-Qasim. Allah (swt) gives and I distribute.'"
Narration is Saheeh (Authentic).
Source: Saheeh Al-Adab Al-Mufrad
Authenticated By Albani. Pg. # 315, H. # 648 / 844.

Just like ONLY Nabi Musa (as) had access to 'meet' Allah on mount of Sinai, during his blessed life whereby all his followers tell musa their needs and requests, so much I put my needs and requests before Allah through Muhammad who knows Him the most.



I go this extra length to uproot these alien thought which spread among muslim brethren. Just like lanrexlan once replied someone "if you want to use tawassul of the prophet, fine; and if you don't want to, no wahala..."
I certainly understood you from the beginning.

Islam › Re: Best Form Of Tawassul (intercession) - Using The Holy Prophet by Empiree: 10:40pm On Nov 21, 2014
@ MrOlai, you really need to quit sectarian gibberish. There is no ijma on Shia being kufar. Pls present evidence if you have one. Becareful what comes out of your mouth. Allah's command comes first before anything. Surah Imran ayah 103 is binding upon anyone who calls himself muslim. Anyone who have different view is fasiq unless there is ijma.

On tawassul, I think AlBaqir should reason with Sissie's point right there. I must confess that Sissie's view is as mine as well. At the same time, I can not reject Waseela because Quran itself approves of it. So long as we have other option like calling Him directly since He is All Knowing, All Hearing, All Seeing and All Wise, we are still good. It's just a matter of level of Iman. AlBaqir should at least agree with this. My point however is always about those screaming on internet about waseela being shirk while evidences supporting it are crystal clear. Albaqir presented outstanding evidences.

Someone said this on YouTube commenting tawasul/waseela ....

I don't know a single Muslim who says RasulAllah `alayhissalam is a part of Allah, nor do I know any Muslim who makes RasulAllah `alayhissalam equal to Allah. Never happened, never will.
Going thru RasulAllah to get to Allah simply means you must love the former to love the Latter. You can't claim to love Allah without loving RasulAllah `alayhissalam.
Christianity is a completely different ballgame.
Those who reject waseela have gone to the point of condemning "Ola Anobi Muhammad" (glory of prophet Muhammad) as shirk. They gone too far.

That aside, I do know that there is hadith where prophet(s a w) was reported to have said "Do not aggrandize me as christians aggrandize the son of Mary until they took him as object of worship".

I think some preachers also interpreting waseela as worship. They are distinct. It's however safer to stick to what ones fully comprehends like Sissie.
Islam › Re: Jinn Stories by Empiree: 9:39pm On Nov 21, 2014
Salawat means sending peace and blessings Of Allah on His prophet Muhammad. Do you know solat fatih or solat ibrahima?, thats what I am refering to. If you dont know, search the net or reply and I will post it inshallah. Pls revisit the original post on this prayer. Looks like I updated it (something added). No, you not bothering me at all. We all here to learn.
Jamo90:
Ok ok ok. I now understand. What about the salawat? Could you please explain it for the sake of others too.
Please forgive my questions, I don't want to do the wrong thing.
Islam › Re: Jinn Stories by Empiree:
Jamo90:
@ empiree, please explain The niyat of the prayer. I don't have an idea.
Niyat, is your intention, your purpose(s) of this dua. This is where you plead to Allah, ask Him whatever you want. He hears and listens to you. It's also in this spot you beseech Him by His Almighty names and praise and send salams on His Prophet(s a w). It's this same spot you make tawbah (sincere repentance). Ask Him for forgiveness. When you are satisfied you then proceed.

Note, when you beseech Allah for help, do not have doubt whether He would do it or not.

Visiting Qabr of parents, brethren simply require sending salam to them and praying for Allah's rahma on them; and in turn they (the dead) will return your salam and pray back for you
Actually, i was referring to this all the time in my earlier post. As for Prophet's, yes, that's exceptional.

Reject crying? Do you allow smiling? grin
I think I have talk about the philosophy of grave visit a little above. Nothing wrong with crying at the grave. It simply has to be meaningful.
I guess that's matter of intention as you rightly said

Brother! Something More @bold. What would you have done if you visit the holy prophet or other prophets? Just clean?
Actually, i was referring to this (relatives, ordinary folks etc)all the time in my earlier post. As for Prophet's, yes, that's exceptional.

What about your parents, loved ones etc? Just clean?
Sometimes you convince me brother and sometimes I can smell this "salafic" ideology. grin grin
Actually, i was referring to this (relatives, ordinary folks etc)all the time in my earlier post. As for Prophet's, yes, that's exceptional. I will give them Salam upon arrival, clean (if necessary) and make dua. But this can simply be done in my privacy and i believe that's more sincere than public display. Just saying. @salafi, yes, I love being controversial. It makes me think... grin


May Allah bless you for that concise summary @underlined.

I think those who reject Tawassul through the Saliheen or the prophet(saw) are only taking precautions. They do not have guts. I can agree with them that care must be taken. Some yrs back, not even mainstream muslims denied Waseela or Tawassul. They only gave different opinion like women should not be allowed to visit graves etc. In my family, we dont really visit grave but Muslims need to remove stigma that those who visit grave amount to worshiping there just by sitting down etc. That's visiting as far as I know. I know it looks crazy. "Proofs" the critics have are usually YouTube vidoes showing people touching, crying around grave of pious. But this is done around Kaaba as well by muslims altogether. I reject crying there (graves) really. But i cant confirm what's being transpired just by watching video. I dont hear what they say.

My understanding is it is better to offer prayer in my house than going to the grave. I will go there for purposes of 'cleaning' the vicinity and also ask Allah for his(her) forgiveness. Nothing more. We really need to stop this whole shirk shirk shirk business. Mainstream really losing it on Tawassul and Tasawwuf. I heard mainstream explanations on Tawassul and Tasawwuf, they dont seem to understand the concepts but to reject it. Perhaps, out of ignorant. Both sides need to take things easy.

I know tbaba1234 is uncomfortable with my story on rawaniyah. That thing got his eyes rolling. I deliberately talked about it to free myself from circle of same old topics, threads, bid'ah, shirk, haram. I am sick of all that. But that doesnt mean I am not firm against shirk or 'unlawfuls'. He probably suspecting empiree as undercover SHIRK grin . Unfortunately i cant explain the mystery just by typing. It's more than that. What I know is he brought prayers to him day and night. Most of them Quran and some from Hadith which he's been using for yrs now. That's where counts comes from. But no one is bound to accept this.

This is probably the likes Baba Adam gone through or had. I read a book around 1998 written by Sheik Adam (r) about times(hours) to have sexual relations with your wife and possible result of such fruit (offspring). Stuff like these are considered "Ashiri" > secrets. But mainstream will turn it down that Islam is complete because to them such things dont exist. They would say Prophet(saw) would have taught us if it was part of the deen. Humm, in most cases, it's better to zip it than argue over it. Its bores down to levels of iman: Muslim, Mumin, Musin.

tbaba1234:
Islam gives you guidelines to live, within that path, there are several ways to live as a muslim.

Innovation in affairs where the religion has clear practises is bidah. Innovation in technology or other affairs not restricted by the religion is not bidah.

The concept is simple.
NOTED BUT NOT ACCEPTED. Point drifted here. Using standard adopted by those who support your analysis, that "if not in the Quran nor in the Sunnah, it's rejected.","paper money" is not. I have no problem with your analysis up there. But here we talking about "Money". It's mentioned in the Quran, Dinar wa Dirham aka "Sunnah money" which had its value within itself, intrinsic value. It was created by Allah but man replaced it for something else. It's not bid'ah really....it is shirk. Chai, we are all in deep lizard's hole.

Anyways, I am just pulling your leg. I know what you trying to proof but i wont buy it. I just brought this up to show Mr. funder his other side. We all spend paper money. I just wanted to bother you..that's all.

RipOffs..... bcus we abandoned Sunnah grin grin grin grin

That is not the definition of Bidah, Bidah is innovation in the religion. You are almost saying because camels were used and mentioned in the sunnah, we should revert to camels.

I would like to see fundamentalist's specific concerns about these scholars. It is true that there is a lot of innovation amongst some sufis.

@ fundamentalist, do you even know that paper money (naira) you have in your wallet or pocket is haram, bid'ah and shirk, shirk, shirk? grin . paper money is not "sunnah money". It's not mentioned in the Quran. Money in the Quran and Sunnah is Dinar and Durham. I:E Gold-Dinar and Silver-Durham. Sufi Scholars have said countless times that we should return to Dinar and Durham. I dont hear this from their critics.

I agree with you with the example of UFO you gave.
What I read in the Quran is the Lord of man, jinns and ALL that exists.
bold is what many dont seem to understand including many muslims. They say if Allah does not mention names of certain creatures in the Quran nor mentioned in the hadith, then, it's non existence. This is lazy man methodology. We say there are plenty of other creatures that are visible and invisible. Even few months ago scientists are saying we are not alone on this planet. Do those people have to wait for modern science to confirm these before they recognize facts in bold?^

Quran also speaks of evils that are created by God. Sura 113, 114 etc are example of that. Those evils dont have to be human. They are tests and trials for man. It's common sense.

I've been reading the thread you refered me to, now my question is how do I go about it since am a not a muslim, can I walk into a mosque and ask for it?
Read your diary. Don't lose hope. Have you learned basics in islam? Like making wudu (ablution), some verses like Ayat kursiy chapter 2 v 255, surat 112, 113 and 114. You need to know and be able to read them in Arabic before you sleep. And try to go to bed in wudu (state of purity). Dust your bed before going to bed and if you wake in the midnight dust your bed again and change sleep position then recite those verses again. Try this until you visit imam.

Listen, you can't invoke other gods besides God's name to cure evil. It may get worse. Like incantation, it's haram (unlawful) for a muslim to incarnate. When someone incarnates, it's Jinn (usually) evil Jinn in that quarter. Better still, you should have cd of Qur'an recitation and play it while you sleep.

I'm really sorry empiree, I didn't regard you as a jinn-consultant. I was just stressed up and nervous. Your post was really enlightening. What these evil folks are really doing to their fellow people is really disturbing.
While I was pondering over my issue after salat, a muslim brother came to sit with me and started telling me of how his mother is behind is own problems but he couldn't confront her. He even said his mother isnow aware that he knows she's a wit ch.
he told me he was given a very powerful prayer by a sheikh, that he would see whoever is behind his problem in a dream. He dreamt n saw his mother in the midst of some other people like a coven. Let's just stop there... Had it been some people were told about the things they'd face in this world, majority of people would not be here on earth at all.
The deviant alfas are not really helping matters.
May Allah help Us all.
I pray a lot too empiree, its just that when you are being attacked by people you can't see but knows you more than you know yourself, then fear and doubts sets in no matter how much you pray.
I hope one day you'll share some of the prayers the man gave you with me. Lol. Oun to daa, ki nse fun eiyan kan. Abi Sir?
It's alright. I hear these cases all the time. Those fellas make life boring. Usually, they are people very close.I have always tell some people not to think of Mr. ABC is behind XYZ. Just pray and mention no name. When i said prayer, i meant....

Stage1- Get up mid night, perform wudu, offer 2 rakat. After 2 rakat,

Stage2- Lailaha illaAllahu, Istigfar, salawaat, lahawla walaquwata ilabiLAH, subhanallah, Ya Allah, Ya Wahab, subuh qudusu robimalaikat waruhu, 111 each etc

Stage3- Niyat (say your intention to Allah)

Stage4- Recite sura 36 (Yasin) full 11x. If you cant, recite as much as you can and upgrade from there.

Stage5- Give to the poor. Do this as much as you can every week.

Stage6- See if you can fast 2x a week, the same way you fast in ramadan (from fajr to sunset


[size=15pt]Do The Above Once Or Twice A Week (upgrade from there).[/size]

And bro, stay away from sin much as you can. Dont even think of someone in your quarters doing evil to you. That's irrelevant. Sometimes, Allah sends you those evil folks to get you closer to Him. Dont hate nobody even if you suspect someone. If someone tells you it's your sister etc behind it, dont take it serious. Just keep up with dua and inshallah, their threats will subside.

It's also good if you can recite Yasin in the morning after fajr. And also the first 10 verses of sura Khaf (18). Please dont accuse anyone. All these have to be done with faith intact. You cant have doubt.
