Youth falling victim to pornography

Posted on October 10, 2013 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Question:

My 15 years old son is falling victim to pornography. He is very angry most of the time, low self-esteem, arrogance and lack of interest in study. Openly defiant towards religion and otherwise disobedient too.

My husband is very short tempered and abusive towards the whole family especially towards my son and also not bothered about our son’s interest in pornography, interprets Islam according to his wishes and borrows money on interest all the time. Husband is heedless.

As a mother very difficult to address pornography directly with my son.

Answer:

Take bayaa with Mawlana online if not already. Let the local Haqqani murids make dhikr in your house at least once a month. Install Net Nanny on all home computers. Recite Bismillah alRahman alRahim and dhikr when preparing food. Do your best and in sha Allah things will improve.

Dream+question

Posted on October 10, 2013 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Question:

Aoa sir,

Hope that you will find this in best of your health.

I had a dream in which I was standing by a grave of awliya and it was like that he was saying something to me and it was coming in my mind. He told me to put a cloth from from his grave and to come closer and stand to grave. (it was like he was going to do something with me like)

What does it mean? Does it mean that am I on level where I can listen and can receive message from awliya in grave?

I have one more question:

What does paper money in dream represent? What does it means when awliya giving money to their murid.

Thanks

Answer:

Seeing grave of wali means advice for you to try and listen to their good example and follow their footsteps. Money from wali means spiritual benefit is coming your way so try to receive it through excellence and ihsan.

Prayer Request: Mumin Jinns

Posted on October 10, 2013 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Question:

Assalam walaikum,

My mother, sister and myself are very disturbed. We feel that one of our close relatives who has access to mumin jinn’s (moekkil) is not letting us to lead a peaceful life. He interfere’s in all our issues later we are left in a trouble some situation. He visits lot of dargah’s and takes me along with him he tells if I do not go along with him I will be afflicted with lot of problems in life because we have black magic done on our entire family which is passed on from generations. Since I went with him to a dargah I have had continuous diarrhea, it’s been over 10 months and it’s not yet solved. He says I should go with him again only then my problems will be solved. He wants me to go abroad for studies, I do not want to leave my mother alone & go. I face problems if I don’t obey his instructions.

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

Stop following that person, do not serve him and do not eat anything he gives you. Serve your mother and do your obligations as Allah and His Prophet (saw) command, not as some relative claims. Be firm and do your best to protect your family from undesirable interference and use La ilaha illallah up to x1000 or more and Salawat x300 a day as an impenetrable wall. Recite Surat Yasin every day for protection and trust in Allah.

What are the rulings of Islam regarding someone with schizophrenia? How does the Shariah apply to me?

JazakAllah kheir.

The Sharia gives you complete leeway because of your state. So do only what you can do and do not worry about the rest. You are under Allah’s mercy and forgiveness no matter what.

Dream: Being imam

Posted on October 10, 2013 by Shaykh Gibril Fouad Haddad

Dream:

Salaams,

I pray you are well.

I saw my self at a masjid full of people I think there was a dhikr gathering that had finished I was going from the front to the back to see the people that came and then went to the front and I was pushed in to leading Maghrib salah. But whilst I was leading after the first takbir the local imam started leading the prayer from the back and I just let him in the 2nd raka I started leading again but when we sat down for the first sitting people just stood up and broke their prayer and some continued praying I just gave up and left the mirhaab and started my prayer again.

Interpretation:

Alaykum Salam,

Try to read Qur’an and strengthen memorization and correct recitation daily. Let others be imam. In sha Allah you will progress spiritually.

Asalam
786

Allahumma sale alla Muhammad wa alle Muhammad s.a.w

I want to know concerning the daily awrad and the 3 levels how will a person know when he is ready or when he has passed a level in the awrad.

The three levels which include initiated, prepared, and determination.

How will I know if I am ready to move on from one level to another

You will receive *clear* instructions what to do, either physically from the Shaykh or one of his caliphs or through a vision/dream, in-sha-Allah, and Allah knows best. There is no need to keep asking, because they know what your level is.
