Conditions of the Ahmediya Mohammediya Tijaniya Path

One of the most important steps taken by Sidna Shaykh was that he did not consider Sufism limited to a certain group of people. The Shaykh usually repeated, “Impeller of rapture (saiq as-sa'ada) drives communities to this Presence, the divine clout (sarif al-ilahi), meanwhile, strays others from (arriving into) it.” Sidna Shaykh left his door open to all seekers, instructing in the way of love all those in longing for the Mohammedian Presence (peace and blessing be upon him)...[More]

Al-Qutb al-Maktum, Mawlana Abul Abbas Ahmed Tijani al-Hassani

 
 

In the history of Islam, there are numerous Sufi types. The universality of Sufi tradition balks at any attempt to reduce it to a signal, controllable pattern. Over the last centuries of the time, however, there has emerged a unique type of Sufi Shaykh who embodies in his person all the ranks of saints, all the secrets of saints, all the meanings of saints; for he is himself their seal whose feet are above their necks, for he is himself the cosmos that supplies them over the whole span of the history of the world. As the Holy Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) knew that he was a prophet when Adam was between water and clay, this Sufi knew he was a saint when Adam was between water and clay. This Sufi is characterised by spiritual sobriety that excludes all splendour...Continue Reading

Tijani companions
 

Since the goal of the mystic path is the transcending of the ego, it cannot be embarked upon without grace (tawfiq); nor can it be followed without the help of a spiritual master, who has himself traversed it, and without the spiritual education (tarbiya) by eye-glance (nadra), aspiration (himma) and state ('hal) which he confers on the disciple. Sufism therefore rests on unbroken spiritual succession which goes back, from master to master, to its origin in the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him). The esoteric tradition runs in a parallel to the exoteric or Shari'a destined for the collectivity as a whole. At its origins are to be found in the divine secret (as-sirr)...[More]
