Seadet-i Ebediyye - Endless Bliss First Fascicle

The Turkish original of the book Se’âdet-i Ebediyye consists of three parts, all of which add up to more than a thousand pages. We have translated the entire book into English and have published six individual fascicles. Se’âdet-i Ebediyye is a book prepared according to the Hanafî Madhhab. There is not a bit of knowledge or word which does not confirm the creed of the Ahl-i Sunnat and Jamâ’at in this book. This is the first fascicle. We invoke Allâhu ta’âlâ to help us deliver it to our dear readers. There are two hundred and forty (240) chapters in Se’âdet-i Ebediyye, and it consists of three parts. Forty-one of the ninety-eight chapters in the first part, thirty-four of the seventy-two chapters in the second part and thirty-three of the seventy chapters in the third part are translations of the letters in the Persian original of Maktûbât (The Letters) by Hadrat Imâm-i Rabbânî ‘rahmat-Allâhi ’alaih’ . A few of them are translations of letters by Hadrat Muhammad Ma’sûm ‘rahmat-Allâhi ’alaih’. The remaining chapters are taken from many valuable books. Maktûbât by Hadrat Imam-î Rabbânî consists of three volumes (I, II, III) and they contain five hundred and thirty six letters. All of them were published in two volumes in Pakistan in 1392 [1972 A.D.], and it was printed by offset in 1397 [1977 A.D.] in Istanbul. Maktûbât by Hadrat Muhammad Ma’sûm, his son, is also of three volumes (IV, V, VI). The volume number and the number of each letter translated is given below. The additions in brackets are explanations made by the translator, (i.e. Hadrat Hüseyn Hilmi Işık 'quddisa sirruh'.). Subjects relating to belief of ahl as-Sunnat are quoted from famous Ahl as-Sunnat scholars' books.

explained clearly that his (Rasûlullah’s) parents are in Hell. Even<br />

if they were in Hell, still they could not be said to be disbelievers,<br />

for there will be Muslims who will go to Hell. It is declared in a<br />

hadîth: “As I am the best of you, so my father is better than your<br />

fathers.” The translation from the book Tafsîr-i Mazharî is<br />

completed here.<br />

It is written in the al-Hazar section of the book Uyûn-ul-Basâir:<br />

“Qadî Abû Bakr Ibnul-Arabî ‘rahmatullâhi ’alaih’, one of the<br />

savants in the Mâlikî Madhhab, said that he who said that<br />

Rasûlullah’s parents were in Hell would become accursed. Every<br />

Muslim has to avoid saying something that will hurt Rasûlullah.<br />

Allâhu ta’âlâ abominates a person who hurts him. Nothing could<br />

cause more bitter pain than saying that his grandfathers were<br />

disbelievers!”<br />

It is written in the book, al-Mustanad (p. 33): “Al-Imâm as-<br />

Suyûtî proves that Âzer is the uncle, not the father of Ibrâhîm<br />

‘’alaihis-salâm’. The hadîth-i sherîf: ‘My father and your father are<br />

in Hell’ means that Abû Lahab is in Hell.” The book, in its<br />

hundred and seventy-fifth page, refutes with documents the<br />

assertions of ’Alî al-Qârî, who slanders as-Suyûtî. Translation of<br />

these pages exists in the section Din Adam› Bölücü Olamaz (A<br />

Man of Religion Cannot Be A Separatist) of the book Fâideli<br />

Bilgiler (Useful Teachings).<br />
