Hazrat Shaiekh Abdul Qaadir Jeelaani [Radiyal Laahu 'Anhu]- Worship-Translation Speech -Okarvi
Hazrat Shaiekh Abdul Qaadir Jeelaani [Radiyal Laahu 'Anhu]- Worship-Translation Speech -Okarvi
The sinful are preserved in this world from the punishment of Allaah Kareem , due to the benevolence [Sadaqaa] of the Intimates of Allaah Kareem (Auliyaa). It is the sadaqa of those beloveds of Allaah Kareem that get up at night and cry to Allaah Kareem , spending nights in worshipful service to Allaah Kareem . Our great Imaam, Imaam Abuu Haneefaa [Radiyal Laahu Anhu], used to read his Fajr salaah with the ablution performed for the previous Eeshaa salaah, for forty years. Ghaus al-Aa’zam [Radiyal Laahu Anhu]also used to read his Fajr salaah with the ablution performed for the previous Eeshaa salaah for forty years. They spent their entire nights in worship [ibaadaat]. Hazrat Ghaus al-Aa’zam t says, ‘I spent 15 years, reciting the entire Qur’aan, between Fajr and Eesha standing on one foot every night.’ He says, ‘after performing Eeshaa Salaah, I used to retire to my room [hujra] and I had a piece of wood fixed to the wall, which I used to grasp. I would then raise my left foot and stand on my right foot and begin my recitation. I would start from Soorah Fatihaah and would only put my left foot down, when I completed Soorah Naas.’ This was not performed a few nights or a few weeks, but, every night, for fifteen years and during the daytime he used to fast. Even though he was born a ‘friend of Allaah Kareem’ [wali] he strove. On this path, [tasawwuf], worship [ibaadaat], striving [Riyaazaat] and struggle has to be performed, for without this, nothing can be accomplished. My elders and friends, these Auliyaa that wake up at night and strive, it is due to their blessings that sinners like us, are saved from the punishment of Allaah Almighty...excerpt from Lecture translation of Maulana Muhammad Shafee Okarvi [Rahmatul Laahi Alaieh] by

The Exceptional Disciple of an Exceptional Spiritual Master-Haaji Muhammad Haneef Naqshbandi Karachi, 1994
In the
city of Sharqpur Shareef the esteemed Hazrat Shayr-e-Rabbaani Miyaan
Shayr Muhammad Saahib (Allaah have mercy on him) was a great holy man
and spiritual succor (Ghaus) of his time. This incomparable and
honorable Hazrat Miyaan Saahib gave the glad tidings of a personality to be
born who would be of great status and grandeur. To give an idea of how
much Almighty Allaah blessed this personality I narrate these words with total
honesty and confidence.
My
respected Hazrat Saahib Qiblah Maulana Muhammad Shafee Okarvi (Allaah have
mercy on him) is remembered with the titles of Khateeb-e-A’zam, Ameer-e-Ahle
Sunnat, Mujaddid-e-Maslak-e-Ahle Sunnat, Ghaazi-e-Deen-o-Millat,
Muhaafiz-e-Naamoos-e-Risaalat and so on. People may think he was
merely a unique orator and writer but I can say with complete honesty and
sincerity that Hazrat Maulana Okarvi was truly a beloved of Almighty Allaah and
the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu ‘Alaiehi Wa Sallam). He was a
friend of Allaah and a beautiful individual with many qualities. He was
dignified and had very pleasant personality. He was not just one in a
thousand or a million, rather he was one in a billion. Almighty Allaah
made him excellent and elegant in appearance and nature and he alone undertook
work that thousands of organizations and religious schools (Madaaris)
combined could not do. The splendor and merit of the Ahle Sunnat seen
today is the result of the efforts and struggles of our Hazrat Maulana Okarvi
Saahib.
