Question:
Salam Alaik Shuyukh,
I have 2 questions regarding Salat al Fatih and Tahlil of Ahmad Idrissi Tariqa.
1) May I know what is Salat al Fatih and is it a part or type of Ijaza? And what is the procedure of getting/doing Salat al Fatih?
2) Can we recite and practice the Tahlil of Ahmad Idrissi Tariqa with the Naqshbandi Zikr? The Tahlil is: Lā ilāha illallāh Muhammadun rasūlullāh,
fī kulli lamhatin wa-nafasin, ‛adada mā wasi‛ahū ‛ilmullāh, which means “There is no other God than Allah and Muhammad (saw) is his Messenger, in every glance and every breath, as numerous as all that is contained within the Divine knowledge.”
Answer:
Alaykum Salam,
You may read the descriptions already given on this forum. No ijaza is needed for Salawat. Salat on the Holy Prophet (upon him blessings and peace) is a universal Divine order incumbent upon all existence and we are born not only with that permission, but with every cell in our being ordered to make magnification of him in every possible way. So do little or do much, “Never shall the tongues of creatures be able to exhaust the praise enjoined upon him.
