خطابات مولانا الإمام الشيخ محمد الشيخ إبراهيم الشيخ محمد عثمان عبده البرهاني رضي الله عنه

المقطع 41

The Generous Lord has said: And hasten towards forgiveness from your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous (Al-Imran 3:133). So, take the initiative towards forgiveness from the Lord, and the repentance, and the sincerity and all other obedience. The Almighty has commanded us to hasten in doing so, in opposite to the case regarding the worldly life. Where we find that the hastening in various cases is not required and there is a warning against doing so. Just like driving on the road, when you find a warning sign not to drive quickly in order to ensure your safety and the safety of the others. But when it comes to the case of any act of obedience or act of proximity, or the returning to Allah through sincere repentance, we discover that the Lord Almighty demands from us, that we hasten in doing so, because the path of guidance does not await the lazy one. And hastening towards Him is the right path, and the hastening must be done with diligence, and the final result of this diligence is the Paradise by the permission of Allah and the end of this path is the granting of the desired objective by the delightful divine speech O my servant, don't be afraid: Indeed, those who have said, Our Lord is Allah and then remained constant on it - the angels will descend upon them, [saying], Do not be afraid and do not grieve but receive good tidings of the Paradise, which you were promised" (Fussilat 41:30).

مَا

سَمِعْنَا مِثْلَ هَذَا يُومَ كَانَتْ۞يَا عِبَادِي لاَ تَخَافُوا ذَا أَمَانِي

What we had heard was similar to this, on the day when was said… O my servant, don't be afraid, this is My safe haven Qasida 75:9

وَنَحْمَدُ اللهَ إِذْ هَدَانَا بِغُرَبَاءِ الْشَّرْقِ، مَن بِهِمْ اِسْتَبَانَ الْحَقُّ، فَكَانُوا هُدَاةً مَهْدِيِيْنَ وَأَئِمَّةً رَاشِدِينَ وَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَهْدُونَ بِأَمْرِنَا وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِمْ فِعْلَ الْخَيْرَاتِ وَإِقَامَ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءَ الزَّكَاةِ وَكَانُوا لَنَا عَابِدِينَ73 الأنبياء، مِنْهُمْ سَخِيُّ الْكَفِّ .. حَبِيبُ اللهِ .. غِيَّاثُ الْمُعَنَّى .. صَاحِبُ الْرَّحِيقِ الْمَخْتُومِ .. عَذْبُ الْشَرَابِ الَّذِي لَمْ تَشْهَدِ الْدُّنْيَا مِثَالَهُ، شَيْخُنَا وَإِمَامُنَا الْإِمَامُ فَخْرُ الْدِّينِ رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ الَّذِي تَحَدَّثَ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ قَائِلًا:

We praise Allah as He guided us by the strangers from the east, by whom the truth has been identified. So, they were The Guided Guides and The Righteous Leaders: And We made them leaders guiding by Our command. And We inspired to them the doing of good deeds, establishment of the prayer, and giving of the Zakah; and they were servants only to Us. (Al-Anbya 21:73). Among them are those Generous by Hand ... Beloved by Allah ... The Saviours of those suffering. The owner of The Sealed Nectar. The owner of The Sweet drink, which the world has never witnessed the likes of him. Our Shaykh and Our Leader, Imam Fakrudin, may Allah be satisfied with him, the one who speaks of himself saying:

عَلَى اللَّهِ الْكَرِيمِ يَكُونُ قَصْدِي۞رَضِيتُ اللَّهَ وَالإِسْلاَمَ دِينَا

It is upon Allah, The Generous to Direct me So, I am satisfied with Allah (As Lord) and Islam as religion Qasida 57:1

وَالَّذِي أَزَاحَ الْسِّتَارَ عَنْ مَوْلَاىَ كَمَالِ الدِّينِ رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ مَنْ لَدَيْهِ عِوَضَ الْوَالِدَينِ وَالْحَبِيبُ الَّذِي لَا يَخِيْبُ رَجَاؤُهُ .. فَقَالَ:

And the One who removed the cover from my Master Kamal al-Din (May Allah Almighty be satisfied with him), the one with whom was the substitution of the parents and the beloved, who's request is never turned down. He said: مِنْ
