Haji X. is very ill… Take him out of hospital… Where there is pain, put your hand and recite Fatiha seven times… I am around him, blowing on his face…  If he passes away, Angels will take his body to Damascus… When Mehdi a.s. comes, I will call him from Barzakh… So many people are going to come back  from Barzakh with Grandsheikh, to follow Sayidina Imam.

Tests..

Mawlana Sheikh Nazim; ….. Years ago as  I was  walking with  my  Grandsheikh in Damascus, a football that some  boys were playing with hit me on the head and knocked off my turban.  I got very angry and turned around, shouting;   “ Oh  you miserable, misbehaved brat!” Grandsheihk said; “Oh Nazim Effendi, you have just lost your faith.  How can you claim to believe that everything  comes  from Allah Almighty when you are ready to blame  someone for something that  hits you on the head?Do you not know that Allah  is the Original  Cause  of that event?  So why are  you blinded by secondary  causes?  When  that ball hit you why did  you  look to see which one threw it in order to quarrel  with  him?  Do you not know that it is from Allah?”

 Then  I  recited the confession of  faith to renew my faith.

 The level of faith that our Grandsheikh was referring  to is the level  of  prophets and saints.  We are trying to attain  to  that level,  and when men reach that level, peace will  reign on earth. The reason for all trouble on  earth, for all wars and suffering is that  people  have lost sight of  their Lord’s Will behind all events.  They have lost sight of the hand of the One  Who is  testing them  through  those events.  They have stopped seeing events as tests  from their Lord.  Therefore they continue  failing those  tests.
