"I was assured, in a grace and a bounty of Allah, to have as many as 1.000.000.000.000 men companions and as many as 1.000.000.000 women companions." (Sidna Shaykh Abil Abbas Tijani) |
In
the Name of Allah the Most Gracious the Ever Merciful. O Allah, send benediction
upon Our Lord Mohammed, the Opening of what had been closed, the Seal of what
had gone before, the Helper of the Truth by the Truth, and the Guide to Your
Straight Path, and upon his Family. May (this prayer be) equal to his immense
position and grandeur.

قال سيدنا رضي الله تعالى عنه: "تأتى فيضة على أصحابى حتى يدخل الناس فى طريقتنا أفواجا أفواجا. تأتى هذه الفيضة والناس فى غاية ما يكونون من الضيق
والشدة." |
The
Erudite Scholar Abil Abbas Sidi Ahmed Skirej al-Fasi, may Allah be pleased with
him, documents in his own handwriting under this image in this manner: “In
the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Ever Merciful. Let one who comes upon
this knows that this image is for the Bukhari of the Path, the Protégé of the
Goer and the Comer, the Scholar and Righteous Friend, the Renowned Pole and
Advisor, Sidi Mohammed al-Arabi ibn Sayeh, the Sharqawi in lineage, the Tijani
in path and drinking place. And he is one of the Grandest Figures and Greatest
Cavaliers of the Tijani Path. And I, the world’s poorest men to his Lord, the
Judge of Settat, Ahmed ibn al-Haj al-‘Iyyachi Skirej, hereby bear witness of
the authenticity of this....Continue

“Our Tariqa was particularized by Allah of a characteristic which places it above all the paths, and whose language cannot be understood, so that the truths of this cannot be known. If ever the veil which is covering this Tariqa was to be raised, the greatest of the poles (Aqtab) would have wished for it just as the shepherd of the desert areas wish for the clouds of rain. Pay attention! Do not let yourself be deluded because all of the paths come from it. It is the source of all the paths from the beginning of creation, till the blowing of the trumpet on the last day. Our Tariqa is hidden except from the Master of Existence (peace and blessing be upon him), for He knows...[More]
From the Arcane Secrets (Asrar) of the Tijani Path
Shaykh Sidi Ahmed Zarruq, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "The Science of Secrets (‘ilm al-asrar) is formed of letters (al-huruf), names (al-asma’) and the like of that. It is a science and a divine opening that the Sufi Masters have created and developed for two purposes: (1) to aid someone that opening (fath) had already appeared to him, and, (2) to benefit a person that reality (‘haqiqa) encompasses his being." So let the disciple examine himself regarding which of these categories he belongs to before he becomes a Secrets collector....[More]

On the Office of the Spiritual Master and Being a Disciple
One of the jurists asked him—God be pleased with him— whether what's been said is true or not, namely that the training of disciples has ceased. The text of the question is: 'Our lord and imam, you whom God has given the illumination He confers on His noble Friends and has honored by family ties with the house of prophethood— the most excellent blessings and purest peace be upon him who possesses prophethood —teach us—for Cod has taught you from His divinely communicated knowledge—that which, by elucidation of direct speech as well...[More]
