SALAH FOR LAST WEDNESDAY OF SAFAR By: Imam Fakhruddin Owaisi

Transcription

1 SALAH FOR LAST WEDNESDAY OF SAFAR By: Imam Fakhruddin Owaisi As-Salam Alaykum dear beloved ones, Many great Awliya-Allah have mentioned that an immense number of Bala(calamities) descend on Mankind on the last Wednesday of this month of Safar. Our Master Sayyidina Ahmad Tijani (RA) has also confirmed this. There is also a special Salah that Sayyidina Shaykh (RA) would perform on this Wednesday to ward off these calamities (as mentioned by Sidi Shaykh Ahmad Sukayrij in the Jinayat al-muntasib). Shaykh Ahmad Sukayrij

2 This Salah had been practiced by the Shaykh's descendants and by the special ones in his Tariqah for generations. Shaykh-al-Islam Sahib-al-Faydah al-haj Ibrahim Niasse (RA) has given permission to all his disciples to perform this prayer on the last Wednesday of Safar (as mentioned by Shaykh Abu-Bakr Atiq in Miftah al-aghlaq). Shaykh-al-Islam Sahib-al-Faydah al-haj Ibrahim Niasse

3 Mawlana Shaykh al-imam Hassan Cisse (RA) had also advised his murids to perform this Salah. Shaykh al-imam Hassan Cisse (RA) and his murids Shaykh Abu-Bakr Atiq (Kano)

4 Note that non-tijani saints have also performed this Salah, but did not know about reciting the blessed Jawharat al-kamal in the end (See the Jawahir al-khams). The Salah is performed with the intention of seeking Allah's Mercy in warding off the 360 (or 360,000) calamities that land on this day. The Salah should be done on the morning of the last Wednesday of Safar (which would be the coming Wednesday), before Zuhr time. This is how it is done: A- You should perform a 4 Rakah prayer (like Zuhr or Asr). In each Rakah, you recite: 1 Fatihah, 17 Kawthar, 5 Ikhlas, 1 Falaq and 1 Nas. B- After finishing the Salah, you recite Ayah 21 from Surah Yusuf 360 times. The Ayah is: "Wal'Lahu Ghalibun Ala Amrihi walakinna Akhthar an-nasi La Ya'lamun" Read it 60 times first, then 300 times C- Thereafter, recite the Jawharat al-kamal 3 times, ending it the way we end the Wazifah (with Inna'Llaha etc) D- Make Dua for yourself and everyone. Do note that the Prophet (SAW) was very ill in the month of Safar and he (SAW) passed away from that illness. Therefore, the month of Safar is a very difficult one for all believers, as we all carry his inheritance. After it is the month of blessings for Mankind, Rabi al-awwal. However, the night is the darkest before Sunrise, so understand!

5 Also note that the above-mentioned Salah is should only be mentioned to Sufis and those who believe in the Divinely-inspired sciences of the Sufis. As for those who don't believe in the Awliya and their inspirations, we should not even mention this Salah to them. It is not something obligatory on all Muslims. As Shaykh Ibrahim (RA) said about some people who were denying his Maqam: "من فاتنا يكفيه أننا نفوته" "Whoever misses us, it is enough (deprivation for him) that we will also miss him". May Allah protect us from all calamities. Amen. Was-Salam, Servant of the Tijani Door, Fakhruddin bin Ahmad al-tijani
