Question:
Assalamwalaikum Dear Shaykh,
Whenever I read dhikr, particularly the dhikr La iilaha illa Allah, whether in a gathering or alone, I get into haal and start to shake uncontrollably then I fall down. The same goes with hadrah. After a certain time I get into a state of haal. What does it mean? Hope my question is clear and may Allah bless the Naqshabandi Silsila and our Sheikh Sultanul Awliya Sheikh Nazim .
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
It means you are getting energy from awliyaullah and that makes you reach that state of haal. You may faint or shake, no problem.
Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani
