Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) is already Rahmat-ul-almeen so reciting salwat is not for our Prophet but for us. Many of you have commented on the zahiri meaning of salwat so I wanted to discuss the batini meaning. The esoteric purpose of salwat is for the upliftment of our soul - as also mentioned in our ...

I bring up MSMS farmans because this thread is about his thoughts on meditation/bandagi. But with a present living Imam in our tradition, thoughts on the methods/practice can change but the essence and goal will always remain unchanged. We must strive towards that self fulfillment/recognition no mat...

Haw many moored do fallow farman i am not a juaj tmaro saro sagro wakt rou na orak wa no chya Qazi Saheb, I have read some of your previous posts you are not so bad in English. Your transliterating of Gujrati in Roman is going no where. . Maybe this is better. How many murid follow this farman &quo...

Hazr waras ebadt krso pan farmn mojb ni chlo tao ty maksood nay ni ponch so Isms farman sorry for my einglish

There is two kind of sufis.

One is called humaost, it means Ali and Allah is one. In our old Dua, we say Ali Allah.
The other one is called huma az ost, it means Aliullah. This means Ali is from Allah.

These are two different meanings one is tawheed and the other is duality.

Ya Ali Madad, Imam Sultan Mohammad Shah has said in his farmans that on the day of judgment, 18 universes worth of Ismaili will come together. In our tariqah, the day of death is the day of judgment. Mowlana Hazir Imam in his farmans several times has said that there are 15 million Ismailis in this ...

My Dear Sister. In today's Jamatkhana when we recite dua niyat khair is completely wrong. In the old days when I was a child it was recited after two duas and after finishing the ghat pat. The original wording was dua maango dua ne nayat khair kar, illahe tu khair kar, ahat pohor jo khair kar, ya al...

Ya Ali Madad, My dear brother ohalak is a term in gujurati, it means knowing. Now you know Hazir Imam by his face and he lives in France once in a while he comes and gives us didar. The main point is when he says in his farman "I am with you" do you feel his presence with you? If not then ...

Ya Ali Madad to all, My son needs specific farman of hazir imam on the issue of drinking. His friends are not agreeing with him that it is against our religion and and against farman. His friends believe that farmans change over time and they do not believe what my son is saying, they want proof. Ca...

Ya Ali Madad too all, What kmaherali said was put into perfect words. The main business for Mowla's hotels is to provide a service to the customer, and the selling of alchol is not the main business of the hotel. Alcohol is a part of the service, to provide for all people who demand it. Who created ...

Ya Ali Madad, The reason why we do the hand gesture that way when reciting salwat is because you are touching the ground and then your entire face demonstrating that you are from dust and will become dust after death. Essentially it is the notion of "ashes to ashes and dust to dust." For t...

Ya Ali Madad To All, First of all, this question made me very sad. We give bayat to Hazir Imam he is our Pir Mursheed, our tahriqa is bateini tahriqa (baten no deen dil na undhar parvar no che) this means that the esoteric faith you have to do in your heart. Now if you give bayat to Hazir Imam, you ...

Pir Sadrddin gave us the first JK in Sindh Pakistan, a village called Kottra Ya Ali Madad, I just wanted to confirm what has been said above is correct. Kottra also nown as Kottri, is near Hyderabad Pakistan. Our tradition is a sufi tradition. Our place of worship and gathering is called Jamatkhana...

Ya Ali Madad to all Love is greater than faith Because faith is describable by intellect Love cannot define Peer Shams has said in his ginans Ishq akal bhuliya ab teri mohabbat laagi It means when I had finished my intellect then I become in devine love May mowla bless you all and give you his ultim...

Ya Ali Madad to all

The meaning of taskidar is "I am mistakeful"
I am sinful is also another (similar) meaning/translation

Skaswani's meaning is right, but the particular word taskidar's meaning/translation is above.

May mowla enlighten you alls soul, in search of yourself.

YAM to All, I am watching this topic closely, and i will give you one more farman of Imam Sultan Mohammad Shah in which he graciously said... "Thame asal ma hata, aase karore waras phela puche thame alame zarra ma aviya, vees karore waras thi thamara badan bandana che" In english this mean...

Becoming one with the Divine where nothing exists but the His Divine Essence or Noor or TAUHEED. This is the Truth or haqaiq of the Ismaili tariqa. Ya Ali Madad To All, Pir says in ginan, i do not have the exact translation, but its says from nothingness comes the point, from point comes knowledge,...

Ya Ali Madad To All Brothers and Sisters, The concept of Ali-Sahi-Allah, is a concept of Vahdat al Wajood (oneness or in udru thoheed). There are two kinds of iman, one is Mansoori iman and the other is Nusarri iman. Imam Sultan Mohammad Shah graciously told us that we should keep Mansoori iman, whi...

Ya Ali Madad To All, I am duplicating this message from my other post. This is a very complex thing. Imam Aga Hasan Ali Shah by his grace, told us the basic belifs of ismailis. Since there are only two major sufi thoughts; jamali and jalali (do not know english translation). Huma ost (jamali), Huma ...

Ya Ali Madad To All Brothers and Sisters, Whatever is, is RUH.......Imam Soultan Mohd Shah Daataar(salwaat). Whatever is, is YA ALY...Imam Aga Aly Shah Daataar(salwaat). This is a very complex thing. Imam Aga Hasan Ali Shah by his grace, told us the basic belifs of ismailis. Since there are only two...

Ya Ali Madad to all, In Kalame Imame Mubin, Sultan Mohammad Shah said that prayer without knowing Ali is futile. If you do ibadat knowing Ali, then your prayers are accepted/answered. In another farman Imam says that kind of prayer is only known/done by a few. May mowla bless you all and help you in...

YAM to All, Suicide is haram (sin) in Islam. Now I want to ask, how many people drink alcohol, which is aslo haram (sin). What about stealing, adultry, rape, and murder are all haram (sin). Now I want to ask are you attending the funeral of a thief, rapist, adulterer, and murderer? These are all sin...

Ya Ali Madad everyone, People ask me if I am a muslim or a kafir... If kufr is to reject Omar then yes I am a kafir! And if love for Ali is Islam then I am a Muslim! This reminds me of a farman made by Imam Sultan Mohammed Shah in which He said that if you have love of Ali and you have less bandegi ...

YAM to Azamour,

May Gods love bless you many folds, even more than what you think of. You made my day!

YAM to all,

Kalme Pir is written by Pir Nasir Khusraw, this is a great book about inner knowledge and about the imam of the time. I recommend that everybody should read it. May mowla bless you all.

I dont know if this book is avaliable in english.

YAM to All,

As I mentioned in my previous post, I have this qasida in quwalli from by Nusrat Fateh Ali in the cassete form. I can make a copy and send it to someone in the USA but it cost postage. Please send me a PM if you are interested.

May Mowla Bless You All
