Question:
assalamu’alaikum, MSN dan MSH yang saya hormati,
Mohon Maaf sebelumnya jika saya mempunyai adab yang buruk, Saya memang belum pernah bertemu langsung dengan MSN, maupun dengan MSH, saya hanya melihat video dan foto2 beliau melalui media internet saja. Dan Alhamdulillah saya sudah mengambil baiy’at dengan beliau melalui internet.
1. Yang ingin saya tanyakan, mengapa ketika saya melihat foto2 (wajah) Maulana Syaikh Nazim Haqqani sewaktu beliau masih muda, beliau mirip sekali dengan wajah sahabat dekat saya…?
2. Namun ketika saya melihat foto2 (wajah) Maulana Syaikh Nazim Haqqani sewaktu beliau sudah tua (seperti saat sekarang ini), wajah beliau mirip sekali dengan wajah ibu saya…
Yang ingin saya tanyakan, mengapa demikian…?
3. Bagaimana caranya agar saya dapat menyempurnakan bay’at saya, apakah saya harus bertemu langsung dengan Maulana Syaikh Hisyam Kabbani…..? Mengingat bay’at yang telah saya lakukan hanya melalui media internet. Mohon agar saya, keluarga saya, dan kedua orangtua saya didoakan. Terima kasih.
wassalam

assalamu `alaikum, MSN and MSH who I respect,
Apologizes in advance if I have bad manners, I certainly have not met directly with MSN, or with MSH, I just saw the video and he photo via internet only. And alhamdulilah I had taken baya with him over the internet.
1. I want to ask, why when I see a photo of Maulana Shaykh Nazim Haqqani when he was young, he is similar to the face of my close friends…?
2. But when I see a photo of Maulana Shaykh Nazim Haqqani when he is old (as of this moment right now), his face is similar to my mother’s face …I want to ask, why is that …?
3. How can I improve my baya, do I need to meet directly with Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, Sheikh Maulana …..? Given bay’at I have done only through internet…. to me, my family, both my parents and I prayed. Thank you, yours respectfully.
Answer:
wa ‘alaykum salam,
Your friends look similar to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim al-Haqqani when young because they are similar to him in his character at that age.
Your mother resembles him now because she is similar to his character and state now.
Your baya` online is accepted. If you can meet Mawlana Shaykh Hisham when he travels to Malaysia it will be a tremendous powerful boost for your spiritual station. If you can travel to Cyprus to meet Mawlana Shaykh Nazim it will be an even more immense boost, but know that he is in seclusion and you may not actually meet him physically.
