Piousness In Solat {Prayer}

Image
Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim  Hazrat Shaykh Bahaddin al-Naqshiband Q.S (Alyaa Rehma) was once asked: “– How does a servant achieve pious reverence in prayer?” He (Alyaa Rehma) answered: “- There are four prerequisites for that: 1. Legitimate earning, 2. Remaining vigilant during ablution for prayer, 3. Feeling the presence of Allah as one begins prayer by saying “Allah is Great!” 4. Feeling the presence of Allah all the time; remaining in peace and tranquility, and obeying Allah after prayer.” Pious reverence in prayer is so important that the servant is treated by Allah accordingly. The Prophet (Peace & Blessing Upon Him) says: “When a person completes his prayer, one tenth of its reward is given to him; or he is given one ninth; or one eighth; or one seventh; or one sixth; or one fifth, or one fourth, or one third, or half…”(Abu Dawud, Salat, 124). “Many people cannot get one sixth, or even one tenth, of the reward for his prayer. He only gets the part he does in piou

Published in: The Annual Review of Islam in Africa (ARIA), Issue No. 12/1, 2013-2014 {pgs 132-138} . INTRODUCTION. The emergence of Shaykh Aliyu Harazimi in Kano as the ultimate epitome of tsoron-Allah (piety) and gudun duniya (lit.: world-denial; Hausa word for 'asceticism') coincided with the growth of a culture of lavish consumerism and exploitation which Hausa Muslims normally associate with the corrupt values of the new urban political class, and which is especially evident in Kano.

There is only the immersion in the Divine and the Eternal Secret, which cannot be analyzed or known, which no expression captures and no signification realizes. The holder of this degree of the Qur’ān comprehends all remembrance of our Lord, on the tongues all creatures, in the eternal past and eternal future. The means, goal, and end of this degree of recitation are not understood or realized except by its holder, who is the Prophet ﷺ alone.  The reward for reciting the Qur’ān is allotted by degrees according to the ranks of the creation concerned. The degree of the one who is veiled is not the same as the one for whom the secrets of lesser saint
