(2)Please explain about salat/darood kashaf. How many times I have to read it and its benefit.

Answer:

Wa ‘alaykum salam,

1) See the Post “Istikhara:Answer Through Heart“.

2) One version of Darood Kashaf as translated by Shaykh Gibril Haddad:

O Allah bless our liegelord Muhammad the Vessel of Lights and Secrets,
the Lifter of Veils and Revealer of Secrets!
Blessings and greetings upon you, O Light of Lights!
Blessings and greetings upon you, O Vessel of Secrets!
Blessings and greetings upon you, O Lifter of Veils!
Blessings and greetings upon you, O Revealer of Secrets!
Unveil my eyes! Unveil my heart! Unveil my chest!
O Revealer of Secrets, O Messenger of Allah, take my hand!
[All of you] help me, assist me!
O truthful one, true is your word “If someone is in dire need let him
invoke abundant blessings on me, for it will remove cares, griefs and
afflictions, and it will increase provisions and fulfill needs.”
O Fulfiller of Needs!
And may Allah the Exalted bless and greet you and all of them.

3) Insha-Allah Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani is praying for you.

Prayer Request: Niece has Seizures

Posted on February 8, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Request:

Asalaam alaikum ya Syedi
I’m extremely worried about my niece and who has recently started having seizures. Her episodes are so strange before it starts her eyes become bloodshot then when the seizure begins her eyes roll back and her hands twist and turn and this lasts for a minute. She becomes unconscious when we try to wake her she gasps for breath as if her breathing had seized. She won’t talk to anyone and nothing against her will is acceptable.We give her something sweet and gradually she becomes ok. Dr .checked and advised vitamin D injections for deficiency. In the beginning episodes decreased but its not helping much. Earlier she was conscious of what was happening to her but now she becomes unconscious. People say its sihr or jinn please advise Syedi as we are so worried.

Response:

Alaykum asSalam,

Continue to follow qualified medical advice such as consulting with a neurologist, as seizures are their specialty. Recite Fatiha 40x over water and let her drink from that water. Give sadaqa on her behalf to the intention of healing.

Dream: About MSN

Posted on February 7, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Dream:

Assalaam alukum shaykh.
I had a dream 2 weeks ago after fajr salah I was fighting with myself I was very frightened. I remember in my dream I was sent a praying mat with an envelope with £20 in it which caused this. This morning I had another dream I was in Cyprus with MSN (may Allah swt bless them). I was in the room MSN got up and came to me and pulled something like a jinn. I remember being frightened but very relieved. There were other mureed there too. I could feel the power in the room. Please could you explain this to me. Thank you

Interpretation:

Alaykum as-Salam,
Dream points to cleansing and guidance. Keep your salat faithfully, give sadaqa faithfully and keep Mawlana Shaykh Nazim’s love faithfully.

Dream: Saw Imam Mahdi’s Face

Posted on February 7, 2012 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Dream:

I had a dream than me and my cousins were trying to bring Imam Mahdi back somehow. My dad came in a hurry and told me that the only person to bring him back was Allah (SWT). Knowing this i started to cry because i wanted Imam Mahdi Back as soon as possible. While crying in the dreams i saw a light shine with a face in it. It was Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s) i woke up crying and asking Allah to bring him back. What does this mean? Is it positive?

Interpretation:

Dream highlights your and our own impatience for that blessed time that has been postponed many times due to Divine wisdom. And Allah knows best.

Question:

asalamalaikum sheikh.. I need to succeed in a very important task and I know Allah(swt) does miracles because he is the master. I have a du’a which I have not told anyone about except a sister who has given me wazaifs to do. Please can you also tell me some powerful wazaifs which will help me succeed? please can all the sheikhs do speacial du’a for me and make dua this is good for our deen, dunya and akhira.. ameen

Answer:

Wa`alaikumussalam,

Pray two rak’ah Sunnah Hajat, begin and end your du’a glorifying Allah and sending Salawat to Prophet s.a.w., where in between ask with a truthful and sincere heart the good that you wish to do. All powerful du’as are like that.

Keep to the wazifah that Mawlana Shaykh Nazim has given us. It is second to none.

Dream:

Assalamualekum,
I am in love with this guy from last 3 years. Recently he planned to shift back to his home town thus our marriage is in trouble. I did istikhara for 3 days to seek the guidance of Allah and ask should I continue with this guy or not. In first dream I saw this guy has taken me to his home town and we are traveling in a bus and enjoying scenery. Second dream was not clear but yes I saw him and I was there in his hometown only.

In third dream I saw my self again in his hometown and i saw that man following a strange guy and reach to unknown place. Where he shows me a girls skeleton. In dream I  got the smell of a dead body. He threaten to kill me but somehow he let me go alive.
please Guide me.

The true istikhara is the first one so be patient and let your respective families communicate your intention to each other. Recite Ya Fattah Ya Karim x100 daily.Hajj Gibril Haddad
