The First Kind

And whoever recites it without this intention gets general divine favours only, and not the special ones. This Sürat possesses innumerable and limitless stations (Maqåmåt) in the sight of Allåh (Who is Powerful and Sublime.)

(4) Bismillåh and the verses ‘Åmanar-Rasül’, until the end. (Surat’ul Baqara, Surah 2, Verses 285 – 286)

Whoever recites this Ayah even a single time will attain a high rank and a great position, and he will get the safety of al-Ammån (Allåh) in this world and the next. He will enter the circle of security in the Presence of Allåh (Who is Powerful and Sublime) and will reach all the Stations of the Most Distinguished Naqshbandi Order.

He will get what the Prophets and Saints could not get, and will arrive at the stage of Abä Yazid Al-Bistami, the Imåm of the Order who said:

“I am the Truth (al-Haqq)”.

So this is the magnificent Tajalli which belongs to this Ayah and to other such Ayat also. Maulånå Khålid al-Baghdadi, one of the Imams of our Order, obtained it after a good deal of time, and Allåh made it special for this age.

(5) Süratu’l-lnshiråh (Alam Nashrah Laka Sadrak.) (Surah Number 94)

Alläh (Who is Powerful and Sublime) says in this sürah: (I seek refuge in Alläh;) Inna ma’a’l-‘Usri yus ran, inna ma’a’l-usri yusrä. (With the difficulty comes ease, truly with difficulty comes ease.)

On each letter and on each Ayah there is a Tajalli different from that on the others, and for each letter there is an Angel from Alläh (Who is Powerful and Sublime), and none of Allåh’s slaves, Who worships in the manner of Jinn and Men may attain any Station without the recitation of Sürah Alam Nashrah with the intention of sharing in these Tajallis, because of what they contain of Divine Magnificence.

So whoever recites an Ayah or letter of the Qur’än will obtain the Divine Grace which is particular to that Ayah or letter.

And know, my children, my brothers, my beloved ones, that I am speaking to you with the knowledge of certainty (‘ilmu’l-Yaqin), and Allah (Who is Powerful and Sublime) is the Guide who guides those of His servants whom He pleases.

I am telling you about these Stations not only from hearsay, rather I have tasted them and entered, and I have embraced them, learning about what exists even in their most secret regions.

So, my children, you should know that if a non-Believer or a hypocrite recites this Surah or any Ayah of it, especially: (I seek refuge in Allah:) Inna ma’a’l-‘usri yusran, inna ma’a’l-‘usri yusra. Then he will obtain some of those divine graces, Tajallis and virtues, because Allah does not distinguish between a Kafir or a hypocrite, or between a Saint and a Prophet.

All slaves are equal in the sight of Allah they are all included in the verse: La-qad karramna bani Adam.

“We have honoured the Sons of Adam.”
