PREFACE

All the praise belongs to Almighty Allah who sent our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pboh) a beacon to enlighten all the worlds.  Salavath and salaam be on him for who’s sake the universe was created and by who’s mercy, the creations both in the earth and the Heaven benefit from , till the day of resurrection. 

By the help of the Almighty Allah we have compiled this booklet even though we are not suit intellectuals in Islamic studies, just  to cover up the urgent need of the prevailing circumstances.  We expect our brothers in Fassiyathushshazuliya order benefit from this and this will ascertain and enhance their faith and belief in our Thareeqa and in its invocations. 

Our intention was to write a book on the topic “Zikr” – invocation, forwarding all facts relevant to the topic giving all proves from the Holy Quran and the Sunnah along with the commitments of Islamic scholars.  But we were compelled to brief it on certain points  such as Invoking by the words “AAH” & “AH”, loudly and in congregations, singing devotional songs, and moving while invoking in accordance to the ways guided by the superiors of our Thareeqa. 

The only desire of followers of spiritual orders certainly lies on getting self and heart satisfaction and soul contemplation by engaging in invocations obeying the orders of Almighty Allah, (1)  “allatheena Aamanuu  wathathumainnu  quloobuhum  bizikrillah – alaa bizikirillahi thathmainnul quloob ( Al Raadh 28)”

“Those who believe and whose hearts find satisfaction in the remembrance of God, for without doubt in the remembrance of God do hearts find satisfaction.

(2) “ya aiyuhallatheena  aamanuu    uzkurullaha zikran khseeran”

“O – ye who believe celebrate the praise of God and do this often” (Al Ahzaab 41)

Of course the invocation by the words “AAH” & “AH” is the expression of exaltation and deep adherence to supplications, fearfulness and remembrance of Almighty Allah generated from the bottom of the hearts of the invocators while they are in high spiritual feeling according to the theories of Thareeqas.

We pray Almighty Allah to make it fruitful to us and our brothers.
