Dream:
Salam my Shaykhs.
After I last asked you if I should follow my father, I had about three dreams.
I saw Mawlana Shaykh and someone I thought as Seyh Abdul Kerim visit me at my school and tell me they were waiting for me.
Another dream Sayydina Abu Bakr [r] said he was waitin for someone. I thought he meant me. I haven’t renewed my bayt yet as I want to do it in person with Seyh Abdul Kerim. What should I do?
Interpretation:
wa `alaykum salam,
Baya` is to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim. Do not delay any good action in general. Your dreams show that you should not delay your baya`. No matter where you take baya` or through which dhikr leader you take baya`, it all reaches to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim and the Naqshbandi Golden Chain to Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (r) and to the Holy Prophet (s). See the link below for online baya`.
