Hazrat Maulana Jalaal ud deen Ruumi (Rahmatul Laahi ‘Alaieh)

Hazrat Maulana Jalaal ud deen Ruumi

(Rahmatul Laahi ‘Alaieh)

states in his Masnavi, “Butter cannot be acquired without milk, as recognition of Allaah [Ta'aalaa] [Ilm-e-Baatin] cannot be obtained without a spiritual guide or Murshid.”

And he further states, “Whoever travels without a guide needs two hundred years for a two day journey.”

About him, there is a story regarding the importance of a Murshid.

Hazrat Maulana Ruumi [Rahmatul Laah Alaieh], who was not only a poet but also a great jurist, theologian and scholar of the highest accord. One day, as he taught his students in the open courtyard of the Masjid, a ordinary dressed dervish stood by and watched. He observed how the Maulana referred to many handwritten books and texts as he taught, so he inquired as to what they contained.

Hazrat Maulana Ruumi

(Rahmatul Laahi ‘Alaieh) replied, “O Soofie! This contains knowledge which is beyond your understanding, so you continue to read your tasbeeh (rosary).” The dervish was in fact the great Shams ud deen Tabraizi, [Rahmatul Laah Alaieh] who would soon be his spiritual guide and teacher.

When  Maulana Ruumi

(Rahmatul Laahi ‘Alaieh) attention had gone back to teaching, Khawajaa Shams ud deen Tabraizi [Rahmatul Laah Alaieh] threw all the Maulana’s books into the nearby pond.

The students who noticed this rushed to him and began to beat him. A distraught Maulana Ruumi complained of how his valuable knowledge had all been lost.

"Tell your pupils to leave me alone and I will give back your books," replied  Hazrat Tabraizi ..... Maulana Ruumi, thinking that this would be impossible, asked his students to leave the dervish alone.

Then he watched in amazement as Hazrat Shams Tabraizi [Rahmatul Laah Alaieh] recited ‘Bismil laah,’ retrieved the books out of the water and returned them to him intact.

He asked him as to how he had done this, to which the great dervesh  replied, “This knowledge is beyond your understanding so you continue to teach your pupils.”

The Maulana then realized his mistake, asked for forgiveness and submitted himself to the presence of this great Soofie dervish. Eventually, time spent at the feet of Hazrat Khwaaja Shams ud deen [Rahmatul Laah Alaieh] transformed him from a scholar of religious texts, into a truly devout lover of Allaah Kareem God.

In Maulana Ruumi’s own words:[translated]

Meaning: “Throw all your books into the fire,

And turn with heart & soul towards the pure-hearted [the Auliyaa Allaah].”

Major Works

Hazrat Maulana Jalaal ud deen Ruumi

(Rahmatul Laahi ‘Alaieh)’s mother tongue was Persian, but acquired knowledge of Arabic as a child while learning to read and recite the Qur’aan. Following his family’s migration to Anatolia, he also learnt Turkish. His intimate knowledge of these languages is reflected in his writings, which although written mainly in Persian contain passages in Arabic and Turkish. His three major works are generally referred to as the Masnavi, Divaan-i Shams-i Tabrzi, and the Fihi Maa Fihi.

Masnavi (Persian: مثنوی معنوی‎, meaning

"Rhyming Couplets of Profound Spiritual Meaning") was the result of his disciple  initial request for Maulana Ruumi to write a short ‘teaching’ poem. It takes the form of an extended poem, 25,577 verses long, and comprises six books, each with a prose introduction. It is an exceptional work, not only in length but also in style and content, for it blends traditional tales, parables, anecdotes and legends about the Soofie saints with stories about the prophets, and commentaries on the Prophetic Traditions and passages from the Qur’aan. It is considered by many to be one of the greatest works of Soofie poetry.

He is acknowledged as the father of one of Islaam’s major Soofie orders, the Mevlevi order although its actual inception came about through his disciples. He was also often referred to by the Persian title, the ("great Master")...

Hadees Shareef Visiting a sick

Even sickness for a Muslim is a blessing of Allaah [Ta’aalaa]. The reason for this is that if a pious person falls ill, then his status is elevated and if a sinner falls ill then his sins are forgiven.

To visit a sick person is known as "Ieeyaadat." This is to show human kindness and it is a means of earning Sawaab. Most of all it is the Sunnah of the Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam]

When a person visits a fellow Muslim who is ill, then he gains the Mercy of Almighty Allaah and the gift of Jannat.

The Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] has stated:

"If a Muslim visits his fellow Muslim brother who is ill in the morning, then 70 000 Angels pray for that person until the night and if he visits at night then they pray for him till the morning, and due to his Ieeyaadat, he gains a garden in Paradise."

Defining Standard of Love-excerpt ZIKR E JAMEEL

By Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Shafee Okarvi

In this regard few people are of the view that standard of love is following and obeying the beloved because lover follows and accepts all orders of the beloved. As this has been said in the Arabic, that lover is under the control of beloved. Allaah ﷻ says in Qur’aan Surah Al-Imran verse 31, “Say (O Prophet ﷺ): “If you really love Allaah, then follow me, and Allaah shall love you and forgive you your sins. Allaah is Most-Forgiving, Very Merciful.””

This verse shows us that the condition or basis of love is following the beloved. So the sect that truly follows and obeys the Sunnah and Shariah of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ is the true lover and Momin.

Now the question is what is meant by following and obedience that has been declared as the standard of the love? Does the obedience and following Sunnah means doing whatever Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ does or there is some condition as well?

If only copying what Prophet ﷺ does is the obedience that has been demanded in Shariah as well that those hypocrites and enemies of religion would also be termed as beloved of Allaah ﷻ and followers of Prophet ﷺ  who despite of being hypocrites used to offer prayers and fast as well. Not only this, in the books of Ahadees a Hadees has been narrated that near the Day of Judgment a wicked and illiterate nation would appear who will recite the Qur’aan but it will not go beyond their throats, and they will go out from (leave) Islam as an arrow darts through the game's body.

True Muslims would consider their prayers inferior to their; their tongues would be sweeter than sugar but their hearts would be like that of wolves, their trousers would be above ankles and heads would be shaved etc.

In such a situation how merely following Sunnah and obedience can be termed as standard of love and evidence / authority of faith? In such a situation merely copying Prophet ﷺ cannot be termed as obedience and following of Sunnah as evidence of Love of Prophet ﷺ. So we need to revisit the meanings of following and obedience in order to define the true standard of love.

In the Qur’aan Allaah has told us that obedience of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ results in being loved by Allaah ﷻ. The enemy of the beloved can never be beloved than how enemy of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ can be beloved of Allaah ﷻ? Thus it is clarified that this verse means that one should follow the Sunnah of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ as a demand of the love of Prophet ﷺ, if one converts his life according to the Sunnah for loving Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ than one will be loved by Allaah ﷺ. Such obedience is the evidence of love of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ.

But how can we decide that this sect is the true follower of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ and acting upon Sunnah of Prophet ﷺ with true love and that sect is merely copying Prophet ﷺ. So let’s research and try to find the true standard of love. Hazrat Abu Daudرضی اللہ عنہ narrated that Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ said, “when one loves someone then he gets blind and deaf to the defects of beloved”.

This Hadees makes it clear that undeniable and true standard of love is that lover does not see and listen to the defects of the beloved. The true standard of love in the light of common sense is that it is impossible that lover sees any defects in the beloved and if a lover sees the defects in the beloved than love of the lover is nothing more than a lie. The loving eye cannot see defects in the beloved and Prophet Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ is defect-less.

Hazrat Hass’aab Bib Thabitرضی اللہ عنہ said about Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ that his eyes has not seen anyone beautiful like Prophet Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ because no mother ever gave birth to such a beautiful man; it seems Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ was created according to his own wishes without any defects.

It has been clarified that Prophet Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ is without any defects and one who finds any defect in Prophet ﷺ his claim of Love is false.
