Seadet-i Ebediyye - Endless Bliss Third Fascicle

strictly prohibited the things He discountenances and has
threatened people who do them with heavy punishments, they
take no heed of His word; they simply ignore His word. Is this
behaviour worthy of a Muslim, or is it sheer disbelief? One should
think seriously! At the moment the time of death has not come,
and the opportunity has not been missed yet. It is possible to
rectify, to correct one’s past faults. For, the hadîth, “He who
performs tawba (asking for Allah’s forgiveness) for his sin
becomes as clean as if he had not sinned at all,” is glad tidings for
those who have faults. But if a man commits sins on purpose, tells
everybody that he does so, and does not feel ashamed, he becomes
a munâfiq. His false pretence to be a Muslim will not save him
from torment. What is the need of saying more words, more
offensive words? A hint would do for a wise person.
Let me add that at dreadful places and when facing the enemy
you should recite the sûra of ‘Li îlâfî’ so that you feel safe and
relieved. It has been experienced. Every day and every night you
should say it, at least eleven times. A hadîth declares: “If a person
who arrives at some place says the prayer ‘A’ûdhu bikalimâtillâhi’
t-tâmmâti min sharri mâ khalaqa’ nothing will harm him until he
leaves the place.” [In order to be safe against something dreadful
or to attain your wish, you should write from the thirty-seventh
âyat up to the end of the thirty-ninth âyat of the Sûra Tâhâ in ink
on a sheet of paper, then wrap it up seven times with some
material, and keep it. Its benefit has been experienced many
times.] May Allâhu ta’âlâ give safety to those who follow the right
way! Âmîn.
O, you, light of my eyes, the beloved to the lover closer than himself!
’Abd-ul-Hakîm Arwâsî, cure for the ill in the inner self!
You are now so distant from us, the curtains are so impenetrable;
As long as you are far away from us, our hearts remain unquenchable.
You would always talk about togetherness, love and affection;
You would often say, “The disciple is the master’s reflection.”
Step by step you had scaled all the Haqîqat’s stages!
You had drunk the juice exhilarating people’s essences!
In your eyes the world is nothing, your heart is with its Owner;
You are now to Allah the most beloved slave the world over.
