Wow! This is one of the first inspirational video I watched back then. It had a very tremendous effect on my psyche then, so much that I have to carry out the zikr formula Sheikh Zashili (ra)mentioned in that sermon.

21yrs ago, how time flies! He died barely a week or month after that video I think. Pls what about the second part of the video, where he discussed about wali? Pls kindly upload the link.

See that video you just commented on, i just watched the actually video at the time i posted it yesterday. I only listened to audio post by a NL member few yrs ago. I have been longing for actual video. You can see he cried in the clip. For clarification purposes, he died in 96 or 98?. My friend when i was in ilorin in 1998 told me he died in 96 at the age 36 but i later found out his report was not credible. 98 was not plausible at the age of 46/48 if i am right?. Now that i watched the actual footage, i feel bad and feel inspirational as well. I had to record the audio for 18 mins. The dhikr lasted 18 minutes and i listened to it back and forth to work until I lost the phone. The man was definitely seeing something we cannot see. This confirms what i was saying that seeing ruhanuyun or malaikat is like getting close to grave. wallah alam. The man really closed to Allah faah

You just watched it recently wow? It has been long really that I have watched it, during this VHS of a things then. I got to know about in KN almost a yr plus after that video was recorded. Immediately we had a semeter break, on reaching Ilorin, I sought out for his videos. Luckily for me my mum had already got both the audio cassette and video copy. I remembered watching it repeatedly then and listening to audio. It was somebody I borrowed that lost the audio cassette, also the video got lost.

He actually became more popular immediately after his demise, especially because of his eloquence and authoritative statement concerning wilaya. No Alfa or few Alfa had openly proclaim that before him, and also make it more accessible or feasible to young people to aspire to be wail, like he did. Some of his other sermon I later listened to was superb, he indeed has gift of commindication.

He died shortly afterward of that video. It was a naming ceremony which the father of the child- Farul Ulama decided to name the boy after him-Sashili. So he died around 98 at prime age of something close to 40yrs. Though I didn't know the exact yr.

No doubt he has reached some level in wilaya, so much so that he's sure of what he is seeing or saying. Perhaps may his frequent seeing of those spiritual beings also signal he's nearing his end. May Allah forgive him and have mercy on his SOUL and other Muslims. Amin. He was rare bred!

as I dey read this my eyes filled with tears. I didn't hear about him before I went to ilorin in late 1998. I didn't listen to any tape throughout my stay there but heard from people especially my friend, Alfa Hakeem. He used to say "oju ju oju lo". "Eniti o ba fe yi kadara re da yo yi lori". He credited the statement to sheikh Sazili (ra). I didn't quite get what he was saying until now. Indeed, he's more popular after his demise.

You just watched it recently wow?

wallah just watched it this month for the first time but I have watched (listened) to YouTube audio of the same footage and I have been asking people to upload the actually footage because I'm inspired at the moment he said "marihabambikum Alan wasalam". He wiped tears as indication of knowing and seeing something. In my opinion he was aware of his demise looking at that footage.

I see many got hurt by his demise especially sheikh nda solati. I watched his firdaus where nda solati cried. They were so close. I seen sheikh nda solati once or twice at masjid dedicated to sheikh Sazili (ra) at Ayetoro near Gari Alimi road.

Ameena. ilorin should have created online profiles for these Alfas and their books because many today think that the only correct Islam is anything you hear from Saudi shuyukh and they look down on their own.

# Actually, that phrase became a slogan then, in which people use it frequently when trying to drive home some points during spiritual related discussions. It was after him, Buhari Musa began to reign and had a shot at stardom.

# Yeah, his mother was from Nda SalatI family, and use to boost that is wilaya was being passed to him by SHEIKH Nd a Salati during his haqiqa upon taking him to sheikh. He',s one of the core Qadarriyah in Ilorin.

#Quite agree with you, you wouldn't believe the wealth of wisdom one would gain from listen to such wasi. I pray some people that have access to these many vital videos would do the needful one day. I just downloaded some software days back for editing videos in a bid to extract what Sheikh Jamiu(rm) was saying during the visit to his house by some muridis. I am still hopefully a get a clean audio later. You would always get elated listen to their wasi.

Thanks for the link to other videos.

His reference to "sheikh" Jabaru confirmed some lunatic alfas at that time too. I remember Jabaru all the time. I can still hear his voice in my head right now but i dont remember his look. Many of our brothers today dont know who Jabaru was when i was talking about him some 4yrs ago. Ikupakuti definitely remembered him. We got many Sheikh Jabaru today.

From what i can remembered from Sheikh Jabber physique. He look somewhat similar to sheikh Saszili(rm), even a bit taller and well built.

Of course many Alfas these days are Jabber like you rightly said, their primary goal is aaccumulation of wealth by all means necessary and some other low level desires.

Hahaha lol . If not for such spiritual ebullience one has experienced thru all those azkar and salawat, the "protestant" would have succeeded in making you doubt or discard all together those things.

One who had tasted the theophany associated with those azkar would only smile and ignore those myopic comments. May Allah GUIDE and PROTECT us. Amin

you know you really can't describe to them how honey tastes. They gonna tell you it tastes like sugar but you would tell them it doesn't. They would say it tastes like sweet you would tell them no. And they wonder how it tastes?. You tell them the only way to know how honey tastes it to take a sip. So telling them experiences from azkar is tantamount to talking to deaf and dumb fellow.

As for discussions we had on Islamic spirituality, I was correct. Ikupakuti was also correct. I continued to learn stuff from people in the same track. I met a young Alfa from adhabiyya who just relocated from Kano to ilorin but he's from ilorin. Had conversations with him on ilm rihaniyun. Just to strengthen my knowledge about them, I asked him if they are jinn?. He said no. They are different beings and creation of Allah to strengthen believers. He said exactly what we have been saying. That they are khadim in charge of every araf in the Quran. He said it exactly how ikupakuti said it.

I asked how could puritans reject this subject?. He said they do not believe in haqiqa. He said but he understands that they are trying to be on safe side and they do not want Muslims to fall into shirk. That's why they skeptical and stuff. I said but this is why figh is important before tassawuf. He said what Alhusunnah don't understand is that both Alhusunnah and alhutassawuf are going to jannah.

This young Alfa I presume he is in his early 30s and a college student in ilorin. I asked him few things about Yasin, khutbah and jabariyah. He said he has them. He had to serve as mureed to obtain them. This is something difficult to get now. I said ma Sha Allah. It is great gift. He simply confirmed what I have been saying. He distinguished jinn from rihaniya. Also said exactly what I said about sheikh Malik Adebayo aka babaloworo, that if you make mistake in certain azkar or dua by reciting specific Allah's Name, rihaniya in charge appears to you in your dream and you see him and he corrects you. They appear in person as well but in human form and correct you. This is what happened to Sheikh Malik.

Lastly he said nkan be faah but there's nothing wrong using these things and Muslim jinn for as long as it doesn't destroy faith. He really confirmed everything we said.

This was exactly the position of Imam Ghazali(ra) then before he decided to engage more on tasaawuf inorder to experience it, and them see if there is any substance in Sufis claim. The Imam got more than he bargained for and he was convinced about the veracity of Sufi experience. However, he was guided more because of his deep knowledge of sharia Islamic jurisprudence hence able to avoid pitfalls many Sufi fell into.

I think I love this intention, and perhaps this will serves as a safeguard not to fall into shirk really. But they normally lack the will power to follow thru to see for themselves if those claims are true or false.

Actually am still struggling to differentiate these entities. I am kinda leaning towards belief that generally a Muslims jinn are called rawaniya. Coincidentally, 2 days ago when I was going thru our discussion on previous thread I was particularly stuck at Khodam/ruhaniya stuff trying to do more research on it. I haven't got enough evidence or material on it as I really like. Hopefully with time am going to get more stuffs on it.

I told the brother in ilorin that in order to avoid pitfall is the reason for studying figh first an be understand to the best of their ability.

I think I lI've this intention and perhaps serves as save guard to not fall into shirk really. But they normally lack the will power to follow thru to see for themselves if those claims are true or false.

while I appreciate their skepticism, I also think it is no longer the issue (that they fear of falling into shirk). Today, it is more about ideology. The moment they realized yours isn't in line with theirs they simply discard you as ahluwhatever. This makes your statement reality. You can see that on this platform apparently where some of them make indiscriminate takfeer for being Sufi

But can you imagine somebody has hale and herty as he was in that video would ever think dying the following week? Wow LIFE is truly fleeting.
