Priceless Zikr (9). The Greatest Blessing that Allah (swt) can give his servant is not money, health, fame, beauty, children etc but it is allowing him to do Zikr (Tabarani). "I (swt) sit with whoever remembers me". (Baihaqi) If he remembers Allah (swt) than Shaitan leaves (Abu Ya'la). Shaitan makes you go to sleep before you complete your Zikr (Abu Dawud). A person will regret both on the Day of Judgement and in Paradise the time he did not do Zikr (Baihaqi).

Priceless Zikr (4). The quickest way to take away Allah (swt) anger is with Zikr (Tirmidhi). The greatest protection from the punishment of the grave is to do Zikr (Ahmad). The most beloved deed to Allah (swt) is to remember Him when others are negligent (Tabarani). You are shown your place in Paradise and trillions of sins are forgiven for the one who remembers Allah (swt) whilst others are negligent (Mishkaat).

Priceless Zikr (3). If you say this Zikr 100 times you will never suffer from poverty (Ibn Abi Dunyaa). If you say this Zikr just once it is better than 4000 SubhaanAllahs (Tirmidhi). If you say this Zikr once you get a date tree in Paradise (Nasaaee). If you say this Zikr once you receive 10 billion+ good deeds (Tabarani).

Priceless Zikr (1). The worst thing you can neglect is not your body, family, wealth - it is Zikr of (swt) (Baihaqi). Even the people of Paradise will regret the time they didn’t do Zikr on the earth (Baihaqi). When you do Zikr the Angels build for you in Paradise (Ibn Dunyaa). He who loves something mentions it much (Daylami). Before you take your clothes off and before you enter the toilet say "Bismilaa" this will blind the Jinn to you (Tabarani).

Allah (swt) Greatest Love - The Holy Qur'aan (12). A few virtues of Surah Yaa Seen (36) : It brings all goodness of this world and the next (Ad-Durr). It takes away all evil from the one who recites it (Ad-Durr). You get the rewards of 20 Hajjs (Ad-Durr). The reciter will intercede for 1000's of sinful Muslims (Ad-Durr). Makes death pangs easier and also eases labour pangs (Ad-Durr). Whoever recites it at night will be forgiven by the morning (Ibn Hibban).

The Quran is The Cure. Every verse of Quran is a rank in Paradise and a lantern in the world. The Angels are attracted by The Quran. Recite Salatul Nabi when you complete The Quran. The Recitation of The Quran Is Greater... The Quran is like a nation secured in their forts... (Bazzar). The Quran is a Banquet of Allah SWT thus take as much as you can (Haakim). When tribulations emerge.. the way out is to return to The Book of Allah SWT (Razeen). The company of The Quran rectifies (Abu Nu'aym). Whoever listens to one Verse of the Quran it will be a Light for him on The Last Day (Abdur Razzaq). When the Quran is recited, listen to it with silence and attention that you may then receive Mercy, Surah 7 v204.

Verily, everything has a door. And verily the door to worship is Fasting (Al Qudahee). "The month of Ramadaan to the other months is like Yoosuf (as) to his brothers. Just like Yoosuf (as) was the most beloved son to Ya'qoob (as), Ramadaan is likewise the most beloved month to Allah (SWT). Just as Allah (SWT) forgave 11 brothers through the supplication of one (ie Yoosuf [as])- He (SWT) forgives 11 months with the supplication of one (ie Ramadaan) (Bustaan AL-Waaizheen). Verily, Allah Most High dislikes for you frivolity during Salaah. Obscenity whilst Fasting. And laughing whilst at graves (Al Qudahee).

'I ﷺ am for the worst of my Ummah.' "In the Name of Allah (SWT) The Supremely Merciful, Most Kind. His words are true whilst those of the oppressors spell ruin. This remembrance mentions the Ummah that will come in the Last Era. They will face trials and their dear ones will encounter calamities. They will cross the seas to tackle their enemies. Their distinct worship will be Salaah. If they had been with the nation of Nooh (as) they would not have perished in the Flood. Or with Aad, they would then not have perished from the violent winds. Or with Thamood, then they would have not have perished with the Piercing Cry. In the Name of Allah (SWT), His Words are true, whilst those of the Oppressors spell ruin (Bayhaqi).

Abu Qatada sacrifices his own sleep for The Messenger ﷺ. "I heard that the Christians who saw the companions conquered Ash-Shaam say, We swear by Allah (SWT) that as far as has reached us, these Companions (rala) are better than the Disciples (rala) of Christ (as)!" (Ibn Kathir). It's a must to love all of the Noble Companions (ra/a) equally and not love one less at the expense of another (ie such as those whose love for Hadrat Mu'aawiyah [ra] diminishes for his apparent opposing of Ameerul Mu'mineen Hadrat Alee [ra]) - however, of course, their ranks naturally will differ. Thus one must not say, for instance, "I love Hadrat Aboo Bakr (ra) more than any of the other Companions [ra/a]" but rather say, 'Hadrat Aboo Bakr (ra) is the most exalted of the Noble Companions [rala] -but I love them all equally.

Haarithah ibn Nu'umaan ibn Nafee Al Nasari (ra) The Messenger ﷺ said, I have grown shy from Haarithah (ra) because of the dwellings he gave up for us (Ibn Sa'd Tabaqat). "The 2 men who were the kindest to their mothers are Uthmaan ibn Afaan (ra) and Haaritha ibn Nu'u'maan (ra). As for Uthmaan (ra), he has not been able to look at his mother since the day he embraced Islaam. Whilst as for Haaritha ibn Nu'u'maan (ra), he would delouse his mother's hair and fed her with his hand. Jibreel (as) speaks of Haaritha (ra), He is from the 80 men who persevered on the Day of Hunayn, their provision and that of their children is in paradise (Ahmed, Musnad).

The Ascension Ater traversing through Paradise, he ﷺ was shown Hell such that he ﷺ was still in Paradise but the veil was lifted over Hell so that he ﷺ could see it then it was once again veiled from him ﷺ and he ﷺ returned to Sidratul Muntahaa (Bayhaqi). After his ﷺ return from the Mihraaj, The Messenger ﷺ was fragranced with the fragrance of a groom - indeed, it was even sweeter than the bride's fragrance (Ibn Mardawayh).

The Messenger's ﷺ concern for his Ummah... verses are revealed... "The one who loves my Sunnah loves me ﷺ, Indeed, the one who loves me ﷺ will (then) be with me ﷺ in " Paradise (Ibn Assakir). And what of those who imbibe the Sunnah?

Hafiz Ibn al-Jawzee (rah) had related, "The person who always starts with the right foot when wearing shoes and: starts with the left foot when taking them off will then remain safe from the disease of the spleen (Hayaat Ul-Hayean). As a boy he ﷺ would arise bright-eyed and his hair would be in place (Al Bidaya). The Ascension- Sidratul Muntaha, covered in golden butterflies... Terminates everything that ascends from the earth and is held there & terminates everything that descends from above it and is held there (Muslim). When it was enveloped by Allah's (SWT) Commands (from above), it transformed further and acquired hues colours that I ﷺ did nol recognize - such that no one amongst Allah's (SWT) creation would be able to describe its beauty (Bukhari).

Tawheed - The Non Negotiable The 3 Registers of Allah SWT, missing various deeds such as fasting or salaah; social sins; association of partners to Allah SWT. Shirik affects the trees and other parts of the creation. O Allah SWT you created the creation and then You (SWT) put them in, what's the wisdom of this... I SWT will (also) put into the Fire the one with no good (ie who associates partners with My Glorious Self) (Abu Nu'aym). We did make for every Prophet (as) enemies from amongst the devils of men and the devils of Jinn - who have been inspiring one another with the golden ornamentation speech of delusion...(Surah 6:112).

Knowledge of Allah SWT is limited so one can enjoy life. A group of people ask about the Origins of The Universe... "There was Allah (SWT) and there was nothing before Him, or with Him or other than Him (SWT) (Bukhari). Islamic theology posits that God (SWT) is eternal and uncreated -for otherwise you would run into the problem of infinite regress (ie this came from this, and then that came from this, etc forever) and (hence) this world would thus have never been created (ie for the "1 domino would never have fallen" to start the whole process of creation), A Helwa. The Throne is created from red rubies and its diameter is of 500,00 years from end to end (Ibn Abee Shaibah). "Allah (SWT) Created 4 things by His Hand (ie in a special honoured way); The Throne, The Pen, (Garden of) Eden and Adam (A.S.). He (SWT) then said to the rest of creation "Be" and it was (Haakim).

Lineage Prophet Ibrahim (as) ibn (Yatrah) Taareekh ibn Shaarikh ibn Najoor ibn Faaleekh (Hayatal Haywaan). Aazar was the name of an idol and Ibraaheem's (as) father was Taareekh. His mother's name was Shaanee, his wife's name was Saara..(Ibn Kathir). An aged Ibrahim (A.S.) prays for his parents... "O My Lord (SWT)! Pardon me and my parents and all the Believers on the Day the Account will be called for!" (Surah Ibrahim [as] 14:41). The Finest Lineage "On the Day Allah (SWT) The Almighty Created the creation He (SWT) Placed me amongst the best of them then when He (SWT) branched Them out, He (SWT) placed me (saw) amongst the best of the two Branches (Tirmidhi). Waaliday refers to parents. The word abee (or it's derivatives) can also be used for one's uncles as confirmed in the Holy Book itself Surah 2 v133.

Session 11 The Unique Mandate of Khidir (A.S.). Prophets Yusuf & Sulayman (A.S) supplicate "And admit me by thy grace to the ranks of thy righteous servants" "O Allah, ask You for a sound heart." Makhmun ul qalb is a pure heart, God-fearing, has no sin, no injustice, no deceit and no jealously, view Surah 26:89. The Unique Mandate of Khidir (A.S.), his presence turns the earth Green. Abbul Abbas Balyaa bin Malkaan Al Khidir (A.S.), learn this lineage so that you may leave the world with Faith! (Tafsir Saawee).

Surah 26 The Poets v90-104 Session 12 Hell will be brought near on The Last Day "and brought [within view], that Day, is Hell' Jibreel (A.S.) came to me and gave me this verse,' It was asked, How is it (i.e. Hell) brought "Seventy thousand Angels will be pulling it; if it goes astray once and if it was left it would burn the people congregated on the plains and everything above it. The Hell-fire is then exposed, and it says, "..for you, O Muhammad ﷺ Allah SWT has made your flesh forbidden for me. There's none remaining except saying, Myself Myself, and The Messenger ﷺ says, 'My Umma (nation), My Ummah.' Keep company of the pious as they will assist in the world and can intercede in the next.

Divine Names & Attributes Al Ghafoor The Ever-Concealer and Protector who gives endless opportunities with which to forgive. "Inded I have a Lord (SWT) (thus) O Lord (SWT) forgive me!'

Al Kareem The Abundant, Most Generous Easily Accessible Giver of Endless Good.

He is ever forgiving to the remorseful Surah 17:25. They are those who remember their sins in solitude and thereupon seek forgiveness for them (Ibn Jarir). If the unbeliever knew how much mercy Allah SWT possessed, then he would not have despaired of Paradise (Bukhari). Allah SWT Honoured and Glorified be He, will forgive people on the Day of Rising in such a way that has never even occurred in the heart of any human-being. (Ibn Al Mubaarak in his ZUHD) Illness is charity (to His servant) from Allah SWT (Ibn Abee Shaibah).
