The intense love of Hazrat Sayyidina Abu Bakr Siddique() for the Prophet()

When we look at the various aspects of the perso-

nality of Sayyiduna Siddique Akbar(), we find

that they are all rooted in intense love (Ishq) for

the Holy Prophet Muhammad(). We discover

that this love had permeated and spread over eve-ry angle of his personality. It is this very distinc-tive quality of his that is not found anywhere in human history. And if we were to compile the his-

tory of love for the Holy Prophet(), then defini-

tely the first chapter of this book would certainly

be Sayyiduna Siddique Akbar(). If we were to

collect all the affectionate feelings, the painful heart expressions, and the states of pure love for

the Holy Prophet() of Islam, then the name that

would top the list would be that of Hazrat Abu

Bakr Siddique(). It is indeed thanks to Sayyidina

Abu Bakr Siddique() that the Ummah has been

able to learn how one should love the Holy

Prophet(). In fact, it is indeed through him that

the believer has learnt how he should pay tribute

and express his love for his Beloved Prophet() as

he really deserves. His accepting Islam without asking for proof. His acceptance of his beloveds sayings without

proof was so much in his inner core self that it has to be noted that when Quranic revelations first

came to the Holy Prophet(), Sayyiduna Abu Bakr

Siddique() was not even in Macca Shareef but had travelled to Yemen on a business trip. When he came back he first met the leaders of the Qu-raish. They asked him, O Abu Bakr, havent you heard the latest news ? He replied, What news ? So they told him, The orphaned nephew of Abu Tlib has just claimed to be the

Prophet() of Allah. When Sayyiduna Abu Bakr

Siddique() heard this news, his heart jumped as if it was waiting to hear about this for such a long time. He immediately left there and came to meet

Allahs Messenger() and asked him, Have you announced your Prophethood ? When the Holy

Prophet() replied affirmatively, at that very mo-

ment Sayyiduna Siddique Akbar() expressed his

acceptance of Islam and said, I heartily accept you as Allahs true Messenger. His overwhel-ming love did not ask for any proof nor did he feel any hesitation to have faith. On one hand, he was the only person who entered Islam without asking for proof and at the same time he received the unique honour to be the first male person to em-brace Islam. The Messenger of Allah always used to praise these two actions and on several occa-sions he also mentioned about it.

Once the Holy Prophet() said, To whomsoever I ever presented Islam, there has always been some kind of hesitation but when I presented it to Abu

Bakr Siddique(), he accepted without the least hesitation. In Hadith Bukhari Shareef, it is re-ported on the authority of Sayyidina Abu Darda

() that once between Sayyidina Siddique Akbar

() and Sayyidina Umar Faarooq(), there was

some kind of misunderstanding. As a result,

Hazrat Umar() became angry. Sayyidina Abu

Bakr Siddique() did present his apologies but

they were not accepted by Hazrat Umar(). So

Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique() went to the Holy

Prophet () and emptied his heart thus, I have apologized to Umar but he did not pay atten-

tion. Later Sayyidina Umar Faarooq() re-

gretted and thought, Why did I not accept the

apologies of Sayyidina Siddique Akbar() ? He

Hazrat Sayyidina Abu Bakr Siddique() personally went to the house of Sayyiduna Sid-

dique Akbar() but he was not there ; so he went

to the Holy Prophet(). When the Holy Prophet()

saw Hazrat Umar(), sources have it that his bles-

sed face changed colour (because of anger). Sen-

sing this situation, Sayyiduna Siddique Akbar()

stood on his knees and said, Yaa Rassoolullah

(), Indeed I am at fault ! and he intervened in

favour of Hazrat Umar bin Khattaab() so that

the Prophet() would not be angry at Hazrat

Umar(). The Messenger of Allah, addressing

Sayyidina Umar() said : When Allah sent me as Messenger to you people, everyone accused me of falsehood. There was only Abu Bakr who stood by me, accepted me and spent his life and wealth for me. At least, for my sake, cant you forgive my

friend ? Twice he asked, Would you keep on annoying him ? . In other words, the Holy

Prophet() wanted to point out that even if something had happened because of Siddique Ak-

bar(), then for my sake, why have you not over-looked the matter. Dont you know how much

sacrifice he has undergone because of me ? His acceptance of the Miraj without proof When Allah Taala decided to show his entire

kingdom to his Beloved Messenger, he bestowed to him the event of Miraaj and the Holy Prophet

() returned from the skies to inform the nation about his voyage in a very short time from Masjid Haraam to Masjid Aqsa and from there on to-wards the skies up to the Divine Proximity.

When this news came to the Unbelievers of Mac-ca, they created a whole mess and began asking how it could be possible to cover such a long dis-tance within a very short time. They went to seve-ral Muslims and tried to revert them from Islam. The unbelievers were at that time unaware of the

strong faith of Sayyiduna Siddique Akbar().

They were already feeling happy that today such a wise man like Abu Bakr will never accept such a thing when he will come to know about it. So many great leaders of Quraish met and went to

see Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique(). The latter as-

ked them why they came. The Kuffaar told him that there was an important matter to be discus-sed. They asked him, Do you think it is possible

for one man to go from Masjid Haraam to Masjid Aqsa and then return in one night ? Apart from that can he travel the skies and reach the farthest limit

and come back ? Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique()

replied, Of course not, thats impossible ! The unbelievers were so happy because they felt that it was their day and there were finally tasting succcess. The unbelievers went on to say, It is

your Prophet() who is claiming to have accomplis-

hed such a feat . When Sayyiduna Siddique Akbar

() heard this, he said, If such talk has come out from the lips of my master, then I accept it wholeheartedly . When the unbelievers heard this, they were devastated, completely disap-pointed and they returned. Here it is worthy to note that he could have said,

Let me first go and ask my Prophet() about it. Because at that moment, Sayyiduna Siddique Ak-

bar() had not yet heard anything about the

Miraaj from the Holy Prophet() himself. But he

had strong faith in Rassoolullah() and his intimate

conviction was that if the Prophet() had said

anything, then it should be true. Such was the Imaan

of Sayyiduna Siddique Akbar().

According to Tabaaqat Ibn Saad(), the Holy

Prophet() had asked Hazrat Jibreel(), When I shall go back and announce to the people that I have been granted the journey of Miraaj, definitely

no one will believe me. Upon this, Hazrat Jibreel

() had said, Yaa Rassoolulallah(), whether

anyone accepts or not, most certainly Abu Bakr will

accept it and in fact he is actually Siddique.

The Urs Shareef of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddique

() is on 22 Jamadul Aakhir.

Hazrat Abu Huraira(t), narrated in the correct prophetic traditions that Allah's Messenger said: "Use this black seed regularly, because it has a cure for every disease ex-cept death" (Reported by Bukhari).

The Black Seed plant is also known by other names, and they vary between places. Some calI it black caraway, others calI it black cumin, or Indian cumin, or even corian-der seeds. Nevertheless, this is the Nigella sativa, which has been known and used for over two thousand years, and is also known in Persian as Shonaiz. Others call it Caloonji or Mangrayla. The ancient Egyptians knew and used the black seed and described it as a medical botani-cal in their papyrology. The Romans also knew this seed, called it Greek coriander seed, and used it as a dietary supplement. A special oil is extracted from the fennel flower seeds which is then used in the preparation of medical formulas and benefits bronchitis and coughs, helps increase body tone, acts as a digestive tonic, quells belching, dries up damp stomach, stimulates excretion, of urine, dissolves wind, quells colic pain and stomach-gas colic, expels worms from the intestinal tract, removes patches of leu-koderma, benefits some skin allergies, quells quartan phlegmonous fever, opens obstructions, stimulates mens-trual period, increase the flow of breast milk and can cause excessive salivation. Adding a few drops of its oil to coffee calms the nervous system, and helps pertussis, dry cough, asthma, and bronchial respiratory complaints. Ta-king the black seed oil unmixed or undiluted can produce gripe, and greatly irritates the digestive system .In his 'Canon of Medicine', Avicenna maintains that "the black seed acts as an expectorant, it stimulates the body's ener-gy, and helps recovery from fatigue and dispiritedness". Placing the powdered black seeds in a cloth and inhalin them regularly helps reduce the effects of common colds. The Blessed companions of the Holy Prophet(r) used to place twenty-one black seeds in a linen cloth which they soaked overnight in water, and in the morning, they used to place drops of this solution in each nostril to help re-lieve nasal congestion, and head cold distress.

In fact, the black seed has numerous benefits for all cold and wet illnesses, and can certainly benefit some hot and dry illnesses such as conjunctivitis, whereby combining a limited quantity of black seeds with other drugs can help accelerate their penetration.

Black seed is hot and dry in the third degree. A decoction of black seeds helps in the treatment of abnormal ab-sence of menstruation and menstrual difficulties, kills intestinal worms, as weIl as helps tertian fever, paralysis,

The virtues Black Seed (Habba-tus Sawda(


and piles among other illnesses. A decoction of black seeds can promote contraction of the uterus after birth, and it benefits eruptive skin diseases. Adding the black seed to one's diet helps gout, and it can balance the uric acid in the blood.

Black seeds also help reduce swellings, and remove scales in ringworm, Drinking a decoction of crushed black seeds sweetened with honey can help dissolve gallstones and kidney stones. A poultice of black seed benefits in the treatment of jaundice and helps to retrieve worts. As a head ban-dage, black seeds can abate headaches. Cooking black seeds with vinegar and rinsing ones mouth with it helps the gums, and relieves toothache .Snuffing a solution of ground black seeds in water reduces excessive tearing. A decoction of finely powdered black seeds prepared with a salve base of essential oil of coriander seeds, and placing three drops ofit in each ear relieves com-mon cold, opens obstructions and dissolves wind. Frying whole black seeds, finely grinding them up, then soaking them in any vegetable oil, and placing three to four drops in each nostril relieves common cold symptoms and nasal congestions ac-companied by excessive sneezing. Lastly, as a supplement, one should not take more than two drams daily with water. In fact, the medical benefits contained in the black seeds are numerous, and to know them, one must study the works of wise physicians. However, some physicians claim that ea-ting the black seed excessively can cause death. From such extensive healing traits among other pro-perties contained in this blessed seed, we can un-derstand the meaning contained in the divine words of the holy Qur'anic verse: It destroys everythingby the permission of its Lord (Qur'an 46:25 (meaning everything, or any morphological structure that is subject to destruction -that is, annihilation of the arrogance and activities of the nonbelievers against the divine revelation, before bringing them to recko-ning. Therefore, the correct religious analytical con-cept of "a cure for every illness except death" has its canonical limitations as in the Qur'anic verse relating to honey, where God Almighty says: in it, there is cure for people. (Qur'an 16:69), and the majority of scholars agree that honey cures many people from many illnesses, but it does not cure all people from all illnesses.

Bnfices de Surah Yaaseen


Hazrat Ata bin Abi Ribah() raconte que le Saint Prophte() a dit: Quiconque rcite le Surah au commencement du jour, se verra satisfaire tous ses besoins de la journe.

Plusieurs vertus du Surah Yaaseen sont mentionns dans les Hadith. Dans un recueil il est dit, Toute chose a un coeur, et le coeur du Saint Quraan est le Surah Yaaseen. Quiconque rcite le Surah Yaaseen, Allah lui enregistre le Sawaab pour la lec-ture de 10 Quraan en entiers.

Dans un autre Hadith, Allah Taala aurait rcit le Surah Yaaseen et Surah Th un millier dannes avant la cration du ciel et de la terre. En entend-ant ces Surahs, les anges avaient dit: Bienheureux sont lUmmah vers qui le Quraan sera rvl, bienheureux sont les coeurs qui le mmorisera et bnis soient les langues qui le rciteront.

Un autre Hadith dit: Quiconque rcite le Surah Yaaseen pour le plaisir dAllah seulement, alors tous ses pchs antrieurs sont pardonns. Donc, prenez lhabitude de rciter le Surah Yaaseen sur vos morts.

Un Hadith stipule, Le Surah Yaaseen a t appel comme Munmah dans la Torah. Munmah signifie celui qui apporte les bonnes nouvelles, car il con-tient des bnfices pour ses lecteurs dans ce monde aussi bien que dans lAutre. Il enlve pour lui les malheurs de cette vie aussi bien que les tour-ments de lAu-del.

Selon un Hadith, le le Saint Prophte() aurait dit, Mon coeur dsire que le Surah Yaaseen soit pr-sent dans le coeur de chacun de mon Ummat. Un autre Hadith dit, Quiconque rcite le Surah Yaaseen chaque nuit, puis meurt, il mourra comme un martyr!

Pendant ce mois lisez 12 rakaates Nafil aprs le Namaz Esha car cela apporte beaucoup de r-compenses. Aprs Alhamd, lisez n'importe quel Surah que vous voulez. Ceci tait le principe de Sayyidin Abu Bakr Siddique() qui avait l'ha-bitude de faire 12 rakaates. En plus, pour les deux derniers rakaates, dans chaque ra-kaate, aprs Surah Fateha vous pouvez lire Surah Koreish. Aprs le Salaam lisez le Surah Yusuf. Puis lisez 500 fois Yaa samaloon et ensuite faites duas.

Ou bien, vous pouvez lire 4 Rakaates Namaz Nafil dans chaque Rakaate aprs Surah Fateha, lisez 13 fois Surah Ikhlaas. Avec ce Namaz 1000 bonnes actions seront crits dans votre compte et 1000 pchs y seront effacs.

Namaz Nafil et Wazifas

Wazifa pour vaincre lanxit

Q: Je suis un boutiquier et jai peur de mes ennemis. Parfois je crains de sortir de chez moi. Y a-t-il un dua que je peux lire pour ob-tenir une protection contre mes ennemis et vaincre mon anxit? R: Pour vaincre lanxit et obtenir protection contre les ennemis, lisez autant que possible "Laa Hawla wa laa Quwwata Illaa billaahil 'aliyyil 'azweem". Quand vous tes dans la bou-tique ou dans nimporte quel travail, vous pouvez le lire dans votre coeur. Le Saint Prophte() a dit que Laa Hawl est lun des trsors qui se trouvent parmi les trsors du Trne dAllah. Cest un remde pour 99 maladies, la moindre tant la tristesse et les soucis. Ce dua est aussi efficace pour lutter contre les Waswasa de Shay-tn. Dans son Shajarah, Maulana Abdul Aleem Sid-diqui(R.A) a recommand de lire Laa Hawl 200 fois le matin afin de passer la journe labri des inspirations sataniques. Celui qui prend lhabitude de le lire souvent tout moment de la journe se verra faire des progrs dans la voie spirituelle. Vous pouvez aussi lire beaucoup de Durood Shareef, autant que vous pouvez, car le Durood est une bonne action qui nest jamais rejet par Allah.
