All Praises belong to Allah, Who has created us and endowed us with honour and humility, and showered us from His endless shores of Blessings that know no end, and has shined His creation by the light of His Light that brings darkness into light, Who creates all in the heavens and the earth and all that are seen by the eyes of the heart and the unseen by the eyes of the body, and bestows His Glorious Majesty and Beauty as manifestations of every being, with Whom lies all secrets and wisdoms that only in His Knowledge alone we seek, and in His Existence only we desire annihilation!
O Allah, send from us Your greetings of Prayer, Blessings, and Honour to Your Beloved, the Light of Lights, the Servant Most High, the Beloved in Proximity, the one raised within one span of an arrow or closer, the one in whose origin is our collective imitative existence, the Perfect Man, the Most Beautiful Soul, the Opener for what has been shut, the End of what preceded, Helper of Truth with The Truth, the Guide to the Straight Way, the Seal of Prophethood and Messengership, Abu-l Qasim, Sayyidina Mawlana Muhammad ibn 'Abdillah, upon him be absolute Peace and Eternal Blessings, our prayers and salutations be upon him and upon his pure Family and noble Companions, from the beginning of Creation until Hereafter in each day a million repetitions!
Alhamdulillah that we approach the end of Safar al-Khayr and shall greet the blessed month of Rabi' al-Awwal, the month of the Beloved, in which he was born into this earth with light and guidance, and on the same date ended his time in this world where he awaits our return to receive his Intercession before the Lord Most High.
In truth to tradition, the Naqshbandi-Haqqani Singapore reads the Maulid al-Daiba'i for the first twelve nights of Rabi' al-Awwal. Each night this well-known Sufi congregation meets at different homes of its members who delight in hosting a noble celebration that brings light, love, and happiness. Armed with innovative percussionists, singers, and songwriters of the Naqsh Ensemble, the Maulid celebration of our group is famous for our recitation, participation, and emotions which burn with the fire of love that continually move all those who join us. Truly, though may be small, this group of lovers is a sought-after group for Maulid that is also much talked about in many countries.
What makes this month more significant for Naqshbandis is that the 12th of Rabi' al-Awwal also marks the birth of our beloved Grandshaykh, Sultan al-Awliya, Wa'iz al-Ummah, Naqib al-Ummah, Hayat al-Ruh, Hayat al-Jud, Sayyidina Shaykh 'Abdillah al-Fa`iz al-Daghistani, may Allah sanctify his secret. Our current guide, Sultan al-Awliya, Sahib al-Waqt, the Shaykh of Shaykhs, the Sultan of Ascetics, the Sultan of the Pious, the Sultan of the People of the Truth, Sayyidina Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani q.s. was born on April 23, the Gregorian date that corresponds to the birthday of the Beloved Rasul s.a.w. In celebrating the birth of the Seal of Prophets, we also commemmorate the birth of Grandshaykh 'Abdullah and Mawlana Shaykh Nazim as well.
The Naqshbandi-Haqqani will mark the celebration beginning Thursday evening, on 30th March 2006 at Masjid Kampung Siglap (off Marine Parade Road), at 9.30pm. It shall be followed with the Khatm al-Khwajakan and Dhikr. And me, the Superdervish, invite you to join in its auspiciousness.
