APPLICATION OF ABJAD NUMERICAL VALUES TO PRAYERS FROM THE QUR'AAN AND HADEETH

*PRAYER ARTICLE 1*

THE MOST SUPERIOR STATEMENTS (فضاءل الكلام):
{THE NUMERICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF REMEMBERING ALLAH AND THANKING HIM}

Compiled By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE

We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.

In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most Merciful.

-O Allah! send Benediction upon the Source of Divine Mercy, Muhammad {PBUH}.

-The Qur’an mentions the two best statements succinctly in the verse below:
“Therefore Remember me, I will remember you. Give Thanks to Me and reject Me not”. {Qur’an 2:152}

-Allah also admonishes us to be thankful, so that He will increase His goodness to us.

-He also states that: By remembering Him {i.e. Allah}, one finds rest of mind/soul tranquility.

WHAT THE PROPHET SAID ABOUT THE MOST SUPERIOR STATEMENTS
Narrated by Jabir {RTA}: the Prophet {PBUH} said, “The Most Superior way of Remembering Allah is by {the repetition} of Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu (there is no other god, except Allah) and the Most Superior Du‘aa (Prayer) is Alhamdu-lillah (all praise and thanks are Allah’s) ”. [Mishkat & Tirmidh]

-Hence, this hadith and the Qur‘an verse quoted above shows that the best statements are: Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu and Alhamdu-lillah.

-One of the Sahabas, Abdullahi ibn Abass (RTA) {who was one of the most knowledgeable in Qur’aan Exegesis} opined that whoever recites Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu should follow it with Alhamdu-lillah because it follows that sequence in {Qur’an 40:65}: “He (Allah) is the Ever Living, there is no other god, but He {Laa-ilaaha-illa-Huwa}; so invoke Him making your worship pure for Him Alone. All praise and thanks are Allah’s, the Lord of the worlds {Alhamdu-lillahi, Rabil-aalameen}”.

-In the attempt to apply Abdullahi ibn Abass’ opinion, one can join both statements together, as shown below:

Small form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU*ALHAMDU-LILLAH}

Big form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH* ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN}

THE NUMERICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF RECITING/REPEATING THE BEST STATEMENTS/UTTERANCES
1. Small form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU*ALHAMDU-LILLAH}
لاإله إلا الله*ألحمد لله
-The additional numerical value of these two conglomerated statements shows that they are really the best statements and also a miracle of synchronism with other illustrious Verses of the Qur’an, Group of people and Events.

NUMERICAL VALUE OF THE BEST STATEMENTS/UTTERANCES
{Small form}
LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU = 165, while;
ALHAMDU-LILLAH = 148, and 165+148 = 313

VIRTUES OF THE NUMBER ‘313’
a. ALLAH’S MESSENGERS
The total number of Allah’s Prophets {Anbiyaa} that were Messengers
{Mursaleen} are “313”.

b. ASIHAABU-L-BADR
The total number of the Prophet’s Companions that participated in the
Victorious & Epoch-making Battle of Badr {Asihaabu-l-Badr} was “313”.
This can also be evidenced by the fact that the numerical value of
ARMY {JAESH} is 313. Hence, 313 is denoted or coded by the Ahlu-l
-Hisaab {Numerologists} as Adad al-jaesh {Number of Army/Victory}.

c. WITR
313 is an odd number and also a prime number {witr}.
The Prophet {PBUH} said: “Allah{SWT} is witr (One), and He loves witr (odd).”
And this is the reason why it’s good to choose odd numbers to pray with.

d. SYNCHRONISM WITH THE VERSES OF THE QUR’AN
The number of Alphabets in the last two verses of suratul Baqara (Aamanar-Rasuul) {Qur’an 2:285-286} are 313.

Abdullah ibn Abass (RTA) narrates that, [Once Prophet {PBUH} was sitting among us and he said , “In Heaven, there has been opened today a door which was never opened before, and out of it has descended an angel who has never descended before. The angel said to me {Prophet}, “Receive good news of two lights ‘Anwaar’ which have not been bestowed upon anyone else before. One is ‘suratul Faatiha {Opening Chapter}’ and the other is the concluding portion of ‘suratul Baqarah {i.e. Qur’an 2:285-286 (Aamanar-Rasuul)}’.”]

These two surahs have been called Light ‘Nur’, because on the Judgement day these will travel in front of their reciters (illuminating their path).
The Prophet {PBUH} also advised that Muslims should endeavor to recite these two verses, especially before going to sleep, for that will be sufficient for them.

-I know certainly that there’ll be other virtues of 313 that’ll be known to Islamic scholars {Raasikhuuna fii-l-ilm}.

*So, Laa-ilaaha-illa-llah*Alhamdu-lillah can be recited 313 times {it’s numerical value}, and Aamanar-Rasuul can be recited as its Khutba {Speech}, due to the fact that the Numerical value of the Most superior utterances/statements and the total alphabets {huruuf} in Aamanar-Rasuul synchronises as 313 {The Number of Victory}.

-I also wish to state that it’s very good to start and end any du‘aa with sending salaat {Prayer} upon the noble Prophet Muhammad {PBUH}. That pleases Allah so much!

-There are so many scientific miracles in the Qur’aan which are yet to be discovered and the Numerical miracles is just an aspect of the others.

-I believe that with more in-depth research, we {muslims} can discover more of these facts which will serve as a Comfort/Apple of the eye for the Ummah {Muhammadic Nation}.

-May Allah accept our good deeds, supplications and our jihad {strivings}, AAMEEN.

2. Big form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH*
ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN}
ألحمد لله رب العلمين * محمد رسول الله لاإله إلا الله،

-The big form of the best statements is naturally a bigger miracle and I think the utterance of the big form will fetch the reciter more thawaab {reward}.

-A striking fact about the big form is that the total alphabets {huruuf} there in are 41, even as a layman in the field of Islam and Numerology, I know that 41 is a blessed number.

-The sahaba I have been mentioning from the beginning of this write-up {Abdullah ibn Abass (RTA) ‘the Qur’an Exegete’} says, “Once Jibreel {Angel Gabriel} came to the Prophet (PBUH), when he {Prophet} was very much worried, and said ‘Almighty Allah has sent His Salaam {Greetings} to you and has enquired why you look so sad and worried!’”. Although, Allah knows whatever is hidden in the hearts, yet by such enquiries, Allah means to indicate honour, respect and favours.

The Prophet {PBUH} replied, “O Gabriel (AS)! I am worried about my Ummah {Nation/Community}, as to how they will fare on Judgment day! ”. Jibreel asked, ‘Is it about the non-believers or the Muslims? He {Prophet} replied, ‘About the Muslims’.
Jibreel (AS) then took the Prophet {PBUH} along to a graveyard where the people of Banu Salamah were buried; there he {Jibreel} struck a grave with his wing and said ‘Qum! Bi idhni-llahi (Stand up! By the orders of Allah)’. Out of that grave, an extremely handsome man stood up, and he was reciting:

---LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH *
ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN---
ألحمد لله رب العلمين * محمد رسول الله لاإله إلا الله،

Jibreel (AS) told him to go back to his place, which he did.
Then he struck another grave with his wing. Out of it stood up an extremely ugly person with black face and worried eyes, who was saying, “Alas, there is nothing but sorrow, shame and horror!” Jibreel (AS) told him to return to his place, and then explained to the Prophet {PBUH} that, “The people will rise up on Judgment day in the same state that they were at the time of their death.””

-This indicates that, those who their tongues remain busy with the Remembrance of Allah and Thanking Allah will continue to recite that in their graves till they meet their Lord in Paradise {Jannah}.

-May Allah grant us the ability to busy our tongues with the Remembrance of Allah and to remain thankful to him at all times {whether in difficulty or at ease}, ameen.

NUMERICAL VALUE OF THE BEST STATEMENTS/UTTERANCES
{Long form}
LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH=619, while;
ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN=581, and 619+581=1200

SYNCHRONISM WITH THE VERSES OF THE QUR’AN
-Some verses of the Qur’an that contains the string of words or phrases in the best statements {i.e. Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu, Muhammad Rasuulu-llah, Alhamdu-lillahi and Alhamdu-lillahi-Rabil-aalameen} have their total alphabets to be 1200, which synchronises with the numerical value of the big form of the best statements.

*So, one can recite the verses below as the Khutba of the big form of the best statements after the recitation of the big form 1200 times.

NUMERICAL EXPRESSION OF “THE LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER”
"الدعاء نور علي نور" في الصورة العددية
{“AD-DU‘AAHU NUURUN ALAA NUURIN” FII-S-SUURATI-L-‘ADADIYYAH} Compiled By: AL’HAAJ {MUQADAM} ISMA‘EEL ABUU-BAKR {AL-IKIRUUNWII}

INTRODUCTION

We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.

In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most Merciful.

-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon Your Bright Light with which You filled Your ambience, in all the places of encompassing existence, Muhammad {May the Peace & Mercy of Allah be Upon Him}. AAMEEN…..

*An-Nuur {The Light} is one of the 99 Beautiful names of Allah and is a multi-faceted phenomenon that can be further learnt in details from Adepts and Mystics. Indeed, GOD guides to His light whomsoever He wills.

-This write-up applies the numerical value of Nuurun-alaa-Nuurin [Light upon Light (622)] with other names of Allah, Prophetic prayer of Light {which I refer as: “THE LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER (AD-DUHAAU NUURUN ALAA NUURIN)”}, Verses of the Qur’aan that all synchronize with the Numerical Value of Nuurun-alaa-Nuurin [Light upon Light(622)].

-The reason why I chose Light-upon-Light as a beacon in this article is because the Verse of the Parable of Allah’s Light i.e. “Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35}” and the Prophetic supplication of Light both has the phrase “NUURUN-ALAA-NUURIN (LIGHT UPON LIGHT)” in common.

FORMULA THAT SHOWS THE SYNCHRONISM OF THE NUMERICAL VALUES OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT, ALLAH’S GREATEST NAMES, VERSES OF THE QUR’AN AND THE MOST SUPERIOR UTTERANCES
1. NUURUN ALAA NUURIN=622
2. ALLAH+RAHMAAN+RAHEEM; 66+298+258=622
3a. PROPHETIC LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER=327 Alphabets
3b. THE VERSE OF THE PARABLE OF ALLAH’S LIGHT=199 Alphabets
3c. THE BIG FORM OF THE MOST SUPERIOR STATEMANTS=41 Alphabets
3d. THREE LAST VERSES OF SURATU-S-SAFFAT=55 Alphabets
3a+3b+3c+3d=327+199+41+55=622 Alphabets in no. 3

ANOTHER ASTOUNDING FACT ABOUT THE NUMBER (622)
The Numerical Value of the prophet’s wife’s name {Khadeejah} is 622. This shows that she’s an embodiment of Light. Indeed, she gave birth to the Leader of women in paradise and the first amongst the four best women that ever-lived . They {four best women that ever-lived} are: {(1) Fatima (Prophet’s daughter), (2) Khadeejah (Fatima’s mother & the first wife of the Prophet), (3) Asiyah(Pharaoh’s wife), (4)Maryam(Jesus’ mother)}.

THE NUMEROLOGICAL PRESCRIPTION OF THE INVOCATION
-In this kind of scenario, the Number and Letter Adepts will prescribe to the seeker that:

*ALLAH, RAHMAN, RAHEEM be recited 622 times & *NUURUN-ALAA-NUURIN be recited 622 times.

*The Quadruple Recitation {3a,b,c,d} serves as the khutba, because they add up to 622. {to be recited once}
KHUTBA {622 ALPHABETS IN ALL}

3a. PROPHETIC LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER={327 Alphabets}
* (1) Allahummah ij-‘al fii qalbii nuuran,(2) wa fii lisaanii nuuran, (3) wa fii sam‘ee nuuran,

3b. THE VERSE OF THE PARABLE OF ALLAH’S LIGHT=199 Alphabets
Allahu nuuru-s-samaawaati wal-ardi, masalu nuurihi kamshikaatin fiihaa misbaahun:

Wa yadribu-llahu-l-Amsaala li-n-Naasi, Wa-llahu bikulli shae’hin aleemun. (Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35})

TRANSLATION
“-God is the Light of the Heavens and the Earth, The PARABLE of His light is like a wall niche, in which there is a lamp:
The lamp is in a glass (or globe).
The glass is like a shining sphere/globe radiating from a blessed tree, a date-palm with neither of the (rising point) east nor (setting) west.
Its oil oft give radiance, such that even if GOD does not touch fire to it, LIGHT-UPON-LIGHT!
GOD guides to His light whomsoever He wills. And God narrates parables for men, for GOD knows all things.”

“THE DEAREST WORDS BEFORE ALLAH” & “THE GOOD DEEDS WHICH ENDURES”: {A NUMERICAL PERSPECTIVE OF THE FIVE STATEMENTS THAT TESTIFIES ALLAH’S ONENESS}

By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE

We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most Merciful.

-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon the Advent of the Truth by the Truth, the Greatest Treasure and the Mysterious Light, Muhammad {PBUH} and upon all other Prophets and Saints {May Allah’s Peace, Mercy and Blessing Be Upon Them all}, ameen.

-The Prophet {PBUH} said: “The Dearest Words before Allah are four:
Subhaan-Allah, Alhamdu-lillah, Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llah, Allahu-Akbar. {Saheeh Muslim}

-The Prophet {PBUH} also said: “The Good Deeds which endure are:
Subhaan-Allah {Glory be to Allah}, Alhamdu-lillah {Praise be to Allah}, Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llah {There is no god, except Allah}, Allahu-Akbar {Allah is the greatest}, Laa-hawla-walaa-quwwata-illaa-billah {There’s no Might nor Power, except that of Allah}”. {Musnad Ahmad}

-The above ahaadeeth shows that the combination of the {55 Alphabets} five statements could be called by both titles, i.e. The dearest words before Allah & The good deeds which endure.

NUMERICAL VALUE OF “THE DEAREST WORDS BEFORE ALLAH” AND “THE GOOD DEEDS WHICH ENDURES”

***Subhaan-Allah=186, Alhamdu-lillah=148, Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llah=165, Allahu-Akbar=289, Laa-hawla-walaa-quwwata-illaa-billah=323;

***they add up as follows: 186+148+165+289+323=1,111

***This shows that these statements can be repeated 1,111 times and one can also research for verses of the Qur’an and the prophetic prayers that their Alphabets add up to 1,111 so that it can be recited as it’s khutba.

NOTE: Whoever discovers such verses and prophetic dua can contact me, so that I can update this write-up. May Allah reward us all abundantly, ameen.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE NUMBER “1,111”

-The prophet stresses the fact that Allah is Witr {One}, He {Allah} loves Witr {Odd (numbers)}.

-The Prophet also states that whoever doesn’t observe Witr, is not from us {i.e. Muhammadic Nation(Al-Ummat Muhammad)}.

-The Numerologists and Mystic of Islam refer to this number ‘1,111’ as: (Adad al-Aekasha or Adad al-Aeqaga).

-They know that the number is deeply rooted in the Oneness {Wahadaniyya} of Allah and that it manifests the Essence of Islamic Monotheism .

*Only people of Hikmah {wisdom} will understand this write-up beyond the little I wrote here. May Allah grant us all al-Hikmah & spiritual perspicacity, Ameen.*

****PRAYER ARTICLE 4****

A NUMERICAL APPROACH TO THE QUR’ANIC PRAYER FOR SEEKING PIOUS SPOUSE AND OFFSPRINGS

By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE

We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.

-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon the leader of mankind {Muhammad} , father of the leader of women in paradise and the leader of the four best women {Fatimah}, husband of one of the four best amongst women {Khadeejah}. May Allah’s Peace, Mercy and Tranquility be upon him, ameen.

-Allah urges us in the Qur’aan to marry from amongst the pious {i.e. a God fearing spouse}, and if we have no financial means to do so, Allah states that one should remain chaste until He {Allah} enriches him.

-In the Sahihain, it is narrated that Ibn Mas‘ud {RTA} said the Prophet {PBUH} said:
“O young people {Youths}! Whoever amongst you can afford marriage, let him marry. Those who cannot afford it should resort to fasting, for it will be a cure for them.”
-The Prophet {PBUH} also states that: “The best gift a man could get from Allah after Taqwa {Piety} is ‘a pious wife’ {Mar’atu-s-saaliha}.”

-The prophet also states in another hadith narrated by Abu Huraira {RTA}: “A woman is married for four things; (1) her Wealth, (2) her Family status, (3) her Beauty, (4) her Religion. So, marry the religious woman, may your hand be filled with sand {a good expression}.”

QUR’ANIC PRAYER FOR SEEKING PIOUS SPOUSE AND OFFSPRING
RABANNAA! HAB-LANAA MIN AZWAAJINAA WA DHURRIYYATINAA QURRATA A‘HAYUNIN, WAJI-HALINAA LIL-MUTAQEENA IMAAMAAN. {AMEEN}
“Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring the comfort of our eyes, and make us the leaders of the Righteous”. {Qur’aan25:74}

A NUMERICAL APPROACH TO SUPPLICATING ALLAH WITH THE QUR’ANIC PRAYER FOR SEEKING PIOUS SPOUSE AND OFFSPRINGS
-The Numerical Value of the 50 lettered invocation for seeking pious spouse and offspring is 3,206.
-This synchronizes with the Numerical Value of a mode of seeking forgiveness. A 50 lettered mode of sending salat upon the prophet is also proferred as its khutba. May Allah accept our invocation, ameen.
-For convenience, the Numerical Value {3, 206} can be divided through 7days (458 per day) or 14days (229 per day). The 14days will be preferable, as it is comes out to be an odd number {witr form}.


PRAYER FORMULA

*ASTAGFUR-LLAH, GAFUUR, BAAQII {I SEEK YOUR FORGIVENESS ALLAH, EVERLASTING, ALL-FORGIVING}=3,206 {to be done at once or 229 times for 14days}.

* RABANNAA! HAB-LANAA MIN AZWAAJINAA WA DHURRIYYATINAA QURRATA A‘HAYUNIN, WAJI-HALINAA LIL-MUTAQEENA IMAAMAAN=3,206 {to be done at once or preferably, 229 times for 14days}.

*ALLAHUMMAH! SALLI ALAA SAYIDINAA MUHAMMAD, WA ALAA AALIHI WA AZWAAJIHI WA DHURIYATIHI WA SALIM TASLEEMAN=Once or Thrice.

NOTE: FATHERS HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN GUIDING THEIR CHILDREN IN THE SELECTION OF AN APPROPRIATE SPOUSE. INDEED, PROPHET ABRAHAM {IBRAHIM} PLAYED A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE SELECTION OF APPROPRIATE WIVES FOR HIS SONS {ISMAIL (ISHMAEL) AND IS’HAQ (ISAAC)}. IF THIS IS NOT WHOLLY POSSIBLE, FATHERS {& MOTHERS} WILL LARGELY CONTRIBUTE TO THIS PROCESS BY THEIR CEASELESS PRAYERS FOR THEIR CHILDREN FOR THIS PARTICULAR PURPOSE {i.e. GETTING THE IDEAL SPOUSE}. MAY ALLAH GRANT US {ALL} THAT WHICH IS GOOD FOR US IN THIS WORLD AND IN THE HEREAFTER, AMEEN.

THE TWO MOST REWARDING UTTERANCES AT TIMES OF HARDSHIP AND TRIBULATION:
{A MIRACULOUS SYNCHRONY OF THEIR NUMERICAL VALUES}

By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE

We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.

-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon our Master Muhammad. The Opener of what has been closed, the Seal of Antiquity, the Helper of the Truth by the Truth, the Guide to Your straight path, and upon His Households as is the due of his immense position and grandeur.

-At times of hardship and tribulation, the Creator {Allah} seeks to test the loyalty of His servants by the ways He {Allah} has described in the Qur’aan.

-This article seeks to single out the two *best* utterances at difficult times, and shed light on the miraculous synchronicity of their numerical value. This will serve as a beacon for more in-depth research into other rewarding utterances at times of misfortune. May Allah guide us towards the right path, ameen.

5 CLASSES OF HARDSHIPS/CALAMITIES/TRIBULATIONS WHICH ALLAH TESTS HIS SERVANTS BY
(1) FEAR, (2) HUNGER, (3) decrease in FINANCES/WEALTH, (4) decrease in LIFE SPAN or HEALTH DETERIORATION,
(5) decrease in FRUITS/AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE. (Q 2:155)
-Allah then urged the Prophet {PBUH} to give glad-tidings to the Patient Servants {i.e. Enduring servants}.
-Allah also described the Patient Servant as: “Those whom when are afflicted with Calamity {i.e. hardship & tribulation}”, they say;

*INNAA LILLAAHI, WA INNAA ILAEHI RAAJI‘UUN {TRULY! TO ALLAH WE BELONG & TRULY, TO HIM WE SHALL RETURN}. “UTTERANCE 1” (Q2:156)
-We’ll also agree that in whatever situation we are, we ought to Remember Allah, give Thanks and show gratitude to Him. (Q 2:152)
-The best and most profound form of giving Thanks in the Qur’aan is by saying:

**ALHAMDU-LILLAHI RABBI-L-‘AALAMEEN {ALL THE PRAISES AND THANKS BE TO ALLAH, THE LORD OF THE WORLDS}. “UTTERANCE 2” (Q 1:2)

5 SETS OF QUR’ANIC SOLUTIONS FOR DEPRESSION DUE TO HARDSHIP/CALAMITY/TRIBULATION {i.e ALLAH’S TEST}
(1) REMEMBRANCE OF ALLAH {DHIKR}.
(2) THANKING ALLAH & SHOWING GRATITUDE {HAMD WA SHUKR}.
(3) PATIENCE {SABR}. (4) PRAYER {AS-SALAAT}.
(5) SAYING & BELIEVING THAT: *INNAA LILLAAHI, WA INNAA ILAEHI RAAJI‘UUN {TRULY! TO ALLAH WE BELONG & TRULY, TO HIM WE SHALL RETURN}. (Q 2 : 152-156)

NUMERICAL VALUE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE TWO MOST REWARDING UTTERANCES AT TIMES OF HARDSHIP AND TRIBULATION
-At times of Calamity, the Adepts who might have discovered the synchrony of two important utterances of the five proffered Qur’anic solutions will advise the person in distress to recite them both 581 times each as shown below.
-Related verses of the Qur’an and prophetic prayer which their Alphabets add up to 581 {the Numerical Value of the two important utterances} can be recited afterwards {at least once} as the khutba {speech}.

UTTERANCE 1:
إنا لله و إنا إليه الراجعون
*INNAA LILLAAHI, WA INNAA ILAEHI RAAJI‘HUUN {WE ARE FROM ALLAH, AND UNTO HIM WE RETURN}=581times

UTTERANCE 2:
ألحمد لله رب العلمين
*ALHAMDU-LILLAHI RABBI-L-‘AALAMEEN {ALL PRAISE & THANKS BE TO ALLAH, THE LORD OF THE WORLDS}=581times

QUOTATIONS FROM THE HADEETH

***Narrated by Abdul-Malik ibn Umair: The Prophet {PBUH} said, “In suratul Faatiha, there is cure for all ailments/diseases. {في فاتحة الكتاب شفاء من كل داء}*** “Bayhaqii”

***Narrated by Abii Sa‘eed ibn Mu‘allaa: The Prophet said, “…A chapter which is the greatest chapter in the Qur‘an…” {...سورة هي أعظم السور في القرءان...} “Saheeh Bukhaarii”

NOTE: This surah can be recited 139 times daily ‘if possible, for 73days in order to attain 10143’.

-Interestingly, tilsami (طلسم ) which means “ENIGMA/MYSTERY” has the numerical value of 139 and it synchronizes with the total alphabets in suratul Fatiha}.

-This synchronicity shows that this Grand surah is an “ENIGMA/MYSTERY” which also serves as an excellent ruqyah {healing incantation} as affirmed by the Prophet.

THE TIJANI PATH {TAREEQAT AT-TIJAANIYAH}: THE PATH OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT
الطريقة التجانية: هي طريقة النور علي النور

By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE

I seek refuge with Allah, the Great and with His Noble Face and His Eternal Authority from Shaytan, the Accursed.

In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most-Merciful.

O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon Your Bright Light with which You filled Your ambience, in all the places of encompassing existence, our Master {Sayyidinaa} Muhammad {May the Peace & Mercy of Allah be Upon Him}. AAMEEN…..

LIGHT UPON LIGHT {NUURUN ALAA NUURIN}

An-Nuur {The Light} is one of the 99 Beautiful names of Allah and is a multi-faceted phenomenon that can be further learnt in details from Adepts and Mystics. Indeed, GOD guides to His light whomsoever He wills.
“Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35}” also describes the Light of Allah with the following phrase: “LIGHT UPON LIGHT {NUURUN ALAA NUURIN}”.

Light upon Light can simply be understood to be a greater form of referring to Allah’s Light.

A simple illustration of Light upon Light is evident in the comparison of the Light of the Christians and the Jews and that of the Muslims.

The Light of the Christians and Jews are incomplete and the Light of the muslims, which I call Light upon Light is the most complete Light.

This can be easily proofed by the fact that the Christians and the Jews believed in their messengers alone.

But the Muslims believe not only in their messenger, they believe in all the 313 Messengers and the 124,000 prophets in general.

And this is one of the six articles of the Islamic Faith in which every muslim must abide by.

THE TIJANI PATH {TAREEQAT AT-TIJAANIYAH} AS THE “LIGHT UPON LIGHT PATH”
Tareeqat at-Tijaniyya is the End-time path in which Allah guides the Ummah {Community} of Prophet Muhammad.

The Tareeqa Tijaanii can be regarded as the Path of LIGHT upon LIGHT because of the Khaatim al-Wilaayah {Seal of Sainthood} pedestal of the Shaykh Ahmad bn Muhammad Saalim at-Tijaanii {RTA}.

Shaykh Ahmad Tijani {RTA} said that his feet are on the shoulders of all Awliyya {Saints} i.e. All the saints that were present in his time {1737-1815}, all those that were before him and all other saints till Judgment day.
Another illustrious phenomenon that can further show that the Tijani path is indeed the Light upon Light path is the Manifestation of Shaykh Ahmad at-Tijani’s prediction of the Flood which was to appear amongst his followers at the End time, through which people will troop into the path in their multitude.

This Flood appeared to be the Saahib al-Faedah {Shaykh al-Hajj Ibraheem Niyaas “Al-Kawlahy” (RTA)} who proselytized the path throughout the whole world and he also serves as Guiding-lamp for all muslims.

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
I once dreamt of a Light pursuing me and was about to descend upon me, I was running from it and I was reciting the Qur’aanic verse I call Light upon Light verse in “Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35}”.

I jumped on my mother’s bed and the Light descended upon the boy sleeping next to me and he began to tell me about my past, and this seemed to me to be true.

Some months later, the boy who was just a normal Christian became a staunch devotee in his religion.

I therefore infer from this dream that truly the Light descended upon him, but the Light was an incomplete one.

I also understood the reason why the Prophet encouraged us to invoke Allah to grant us Light upon Light.

Being a member of the Ummah {Community} of Prophet and the Follower of Shaykh Ahmad at-Tijaani are the best gifts that anyone can be bestowed with, because Islam is the religion of Light upon Light and the Tijani path is the path of Light upon Light.

NUMERICAL PROOF THAT SHOWS THAT THE TIJANI PATH IS THE LIGHT UPON LIGHT PATH
-The Numerical Value of the phrase “Nuurun alaa Nuurin {Light upon Light}” is 622.
-The additional Numerical Value of ALLAH, RAHMAN and RAHEEM is 622.
-The additional Numerical Value of ALLAH, MUHAMMAD and TIJANI is 622.

DEDUCTIONS FROM THE NUMERICAL PROOFS
It’s evident that the Numerical Values of the statement and names above synchronizes.

The above names of Allah i.e. {ALLAH, RAHMAN and RAHEEM} are ismu-llahi-l-Ahzam {with which when one calls the Creator with He answers, and when one asks Him by them, He answers}.

The Numerical Value of ALLAH, MUHAMMAD and TIJANI also adds up to 622.

This shows that the Light that reflects out of these names is a complete and perfect one.

And the Light upon Light that reflects from these names shows that Islam is the most complete Deen and the most complete Tareeqah is Tareeqat at-Tijaaniyah {Tijani Path}.

END NOTE
The Tareeqah Tijaniyyah is the End-time Tareeqah {Path}. It’s completeness also manifests from the fact that Tijanis respect and love all the Saints. *The writer is a Mureed and does not possess deep knowledge of the Tareeqah. I’m only trying to point out the Numerological miracle that shows that the Tariqah Tijaniyyah is the Path of Light upon Light. *

Oh Allah! Place within our Hearts Light, upon our Tongues Light, within our ears Light, within our eyes Light, place above us Light, beneath us Light, on our right Light, on our left Light, before us Light, behind us Light, place Light within our souls. Magnify Light for us, make Light abundant for us, grant us Light, make us Light. Oh Allah! Bestow upon us Light, place Light in our Tendons, in our flesh Light, in our Blood Light, in our Hair Light, in our Skin Light. Oh Allah! Place Light for us in our graves, Light in our bones, Increase us with Light and grant us LIGHT UPON LIGHT, ameen.

THE PATH OF LIGHT~UPON~LIGHT: THE TIJANI PATH
{Discovery of Shaykh Abdurazaaq Woleola Aafakallau, Nigeria}:
NUMERICAL PROOF THAT SHOWS THAT THE TIJANI PATH IS INDEED A MUHAMMADIC PATH OF LIGHT~UPON~LIGHT

By: Ismaheel Bakare

The basic litany of the tijani path which is called "wazeefah", was given to Sheikh Tijani by the prophet, in a state of wakefulness.

A numerical proof for this is the numerical stamp of the prophet in the adhkaar{s} in the wazeefah.

The word An~Nabiyy {the Prophet} consists of five arabic letters, and the Numerical Value {NV} of each of the five components of the wazeefah are as stated below:

First Letter: Alif {NV = 1}
Second Letter: Lam {NV = 30}
Third Letter: Nun {NV = 50}
Fourth Letter: Ba {NV = 2}
Fifth Letter: Ya {NV = 10}

SYNCHRONICITY OF THE NUMERICAL VALUE OF THE 5 LETTERS IN AN~NABIYY {THE PROPHET} TO THE 5 COMPONENTS OF THE TIJANI LITANIES

1st Letter: Alif {NV = 1} synchronises with the fact that the starting of the wazeefah is the recitation of SURAT FATIHA 1ce {once}.

2nd Letter: Lam {NV = 30} synchronises with the fact that the second of the five components is the recitation of ASTAGFURLAHI~L~AZEEM LAZEE LAA~ILAAHA~ILAA HUWA~L~HAYYU~L~QAYYUM 30 times

3rd Letter: Nun {NV = 50} synchronises with the recitation of SALAT AL~FATIHI 50 times.

4th Letter: Ba {NV = 2}

5th Letter: Ya {NV = 10}

The 4th component of the Tijani Litany is the recitation of LAA~ILAAHA~ILLA~LLAH 100 times synchronises with the NV of the 5th letter, i.e. 10 raised to the power of the NV of 2 in the 4th letter of the word AN~NABIYY, i.e. {10 * 10 = 100}

The 5th component of the Tijani wazeefa of reciting JAUHARAT AL~KAMAAL 12 times synchronises with the addition of the 4th and 5th NV of the letters in AN~NABIYY, i.e. 2 + 10 = 12

Alhamdu~lillah for the synchrony of the numerical value of the core litanies with the word AN~NABIYY {النبي}.

This finding basically strengthens the conviction of the adepts, disciples & seekers on Allah's path.

The holistic credit of this finding goes to the Great Mystic and Adept of the Tijani path in Nigeria {SHEIKH ABDURAZAAQ MUBASHIR WOLEOLA 'AAFAAQALLAU'}.

MYSTICO~SPIRITUAL ODYSSEY: {FROM THE PHYSICO~MUNDANE AMBIENT, THROUGH THE TERRESTIAL PLANE, TO THE CELESTIAL ABODE}

By: Ismaheel Bakare

Published online at: http://mystico-spiritualodyssey.blogspot.com

on Thursday, 17 February 2011 at 19:04

Glorified {and Exalted} is He {God}, Who took His slave {the Holy Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him)} for a journey by night, from the Sacred Mosque {at Mecca} to the Aqsa Mosque {in Jerusalem}, the neighbourhood whereof We have blessed, in order that we might show him of Our signs. Verily, He is the All~Hearer, the All~Seer (Qur'aan 17:1).

Peace and Blessings of God be upon all the Prophets and Messengers, especially on Muhammad {PBUH}.

The Mystical journey undertaken by Prophets of God and Saints is what I term as "Mystico~Spiritual Odyssey/Journey".

The journey by which God took Prophet Muhammad occurred while he was in a state midway between sleep and wakefulness.

Thereby, the journey wasn't only undertook mystico~spiritually, but also in his physical form.

The spiritual adepts in islam of all ages have stressed on the fact that such journey is inevitable for the achievement of Spiritual Bliss.

This kind of delicate journey can never be well described or holistically discussed, except from an experiential perception.

The Holy prophet perfectly described his odyssey to the people, in which they found difficult to understood and believed.

This journey, in this kind of world, can only be carried out through the help of a spiritual master or adept that is well grounded in the Legal and Spiritual aspects of Islaam {i.e. Shariah and Tasawwuf} ambidextrously.

May Allah guide and guard us through His path, that leads to Eternal Bliss, amen!!!

{A TIP} FROM THE {OCEAN OF} PROOFS FOR THE PATH OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT!
(MIN JAWAAMI’I-L-HUJJAAT LIL~T~TAREEQAT AN~NUUR ALAA N NUUR!)

By: Ismaheel Bakare

Published as facebook note by facebook.com/ismaeelbakare

In Allah's name, the Most~Gracious, the Most~Merciful, the Living, the Eternal.
Oh Allah, bless our Master Muhammad, the Enigmatic Light.

GENERAL PROOF FOR SUFISM

The Pristine Sufism aim or goal was to achieve fully/complete all the benefits of the three folds of our noble Deen (Religion), i.e. Islam (Submission/Peace), Eemaan (Belief) and Ihsaan (Perfection/Excellence).

All the pristine and undeviated paths of Sufism, are deeply rooted in the Qur'aan and Sunnah.

The Numerical proof below shows that truly, BY holding fast to the QUR'AAN, as it is expected of a pristine sufi, one will achieve the threefolds of the deen:

~BI QUR'AAN(By Qur'aan) = 354.

~ISLAM (132) + EEMAAN (102) + IHSAAN (120) = 354;

The above Abjad Numeric equation shows that truly, By the Qur'aan, one can achieve / attain the 3 basics of the Deen!!!

Indeed, these numerical synchronies are not just coincidences. For verily, God keeps count of all things (أحصي كل شيء عددا).

From the above illustration, one can draw a cue that the major object of the multifarious sufi path is simple, i.e. to serve as the spirit/platform of the external forms of worship by trying to achieve the three folds of our deen, especially the Ihsaan aspect, which requires the faithful Believer (Mu’min) to worship God, as though he/she sees Him, and for him/her to have the full awareness that God sees him/her all the time.

No other Islamic aspect treats this issue in details and rightly, except through the mystical paths of sufis, especially through a standard leadership/mentorship of a murshid (guide) whom is well-grounded in fiqh/dictates of the sharee’ah and tasawwuf.

FROM THE OCEAN OF PROOFS FOR THE TIJANI PATH
1. As it has been submitted in previous articles, all pristine and undeviated paths can be ascribed as the 'Paths of Lights', but the End~time path(Tijani path) is undoubtedly the 'Path of Light upon Light', with theNumerical proof shown below:

~NUURUN ALAA NUURIN=622

~ALLAH, MUHAMMAD, TIJAANII=622

(See my facebook note titled; THE TIJANI PATH: THE PATH OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT {http://facebook.com/ismaeelbakare}) .

2. The numerical stamp{AN-NABIYY} on one of the tijani litany(wadheefa) is another epoch~making proof that shows that the path is indeed, a prophetic bequest and a path of light upon light. See; http://fromnabiyytotijani.blogspot.com

3. The equation below shows that the spiritual marvels/haqeeqah of the enigmatic light(prophet Muhammad) can only be unraveled by following tijani:

~BI TIJANII{By Tijaanee}=466

~NUUR AL MUTALSAM{Enigmatic Light}=466

4. MIN HUJJAT AL-FAEDAT AL-IBRAHIMIYYAH{FROM THE PROOFS OF SHEIKH IBRAHIM'S SPIRITUAL FLOODSHIP}
FAEDAT TIJAAN(FLOOD OF TIJAAN)=1349;
FAEDAT MAUHAMMAD, RASUULU-LLAH(FLOOD OF MUHAMMAD, GOD’S APOSTLE)=1349;
FAEDAT(895) + TIJAAN/MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH(454)=1349
IN 1349, SHEIKH WAS 29 YEARS OLD, AND HE ANNOUNCED HIMSELF OPENLY AS THE SPIRITUAL FLOOD THAT SHEIKH TIJAANI PREDICTED.
THE NUMERICAL VALUE OF TIJAAN, not TIJAANEE synchronises with that of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH, i.e. the Sheikh didn't only inherit from Sheikh Tijani, but he inherited what flowed from the abode of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH to TIJAN, and finally to our father.
MAY ALLAH GRANT US ALL THE BARAKA OF THE FAEDAH!!!

5. SHEIKH AHMAD TIJAANI’S COMING INTO THE WORLD

Sheikh Ahmad Tijani was given birth to in the year 1737. That year the light of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH reappeared in a village called TIJAAN. This can be evidenced by the fact that the Numerical Value of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH and TIJAAN are the same (454).

Sheikh Tijani bore two matchless titles, that none but he can bear (KHAATIM AL-AWLIYYAA and QUTB AL-MAQTUUM). The numerical value of the two adds upto the year that the sheikh was given birth to: KHAATIM AL-AWLIYYAA = 1120 and: QUTB MAQTUUM = 616; {1121+616=1737}

Thanks to Allah. I appreciate My Sheikh, Rufai Idris Oladipupo, Sheikh Luqman Sayyed. And those that inspired this, especially Ustadh Cisse Zaman and Ustadh Ma'aruf Ogunbunmi. GOD BLESS THEM ALL

WHO IS A WALIYY or SAINT or FRIEND OF GOD?: NUMERICO-PERCEPTUAL ANSWER

A succinct way to answer this question is to look at the major gift the waliyy has from His Friend (God).

That gift is the gift of Acceptance of Prayer. God listens to His Friends, and responds to them accordingly.

This can be evidenced by the fact that the Numerical Values of Waliyy (Saint or Friend of God) and Mujaab (Someone whose Prayers are Accepted) are 46.

WALIYY (SAINT OR FRIEND OF GOD) = 46

MUJAAB (SOMEONE WHOSE PRAYERS ARE ACCEPTED) = 46

Another question of interest is that how can one achieve the position of Wilaayah/Frienship with God.

A verse of the Qur’aan gives the answer to that question of how to seek such position, and the numbers of alphabets in the verse are 46.

Wa mina laeli, fatahajad bihi Naafilatan laka, asaa an yab’hasaka Rabbuka Maqaaman Mahmuudan (In a part of the night, exercise Tahajud or Night prayer with your Voluntary acts of worship. May be Your Lord will raise you to a Praiseworthy Station)=46 Alphabets!

May Allah grant us the position of His Friendship, amen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh Allah, Grant us the ability to Love You, and to Love those who Love You, and to Love whatsoever brings us nearer to closer to Your Love, and make Your Love more attractive to us, than Cold water is to the thirsty, AMEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOLISTIC MODE OF WORSHIP!!!

By: Al'haaj Ismaeel Abuu-Bakr

by Ismaheel Bakare on Monday, 12 September 2011 at 05:37

There are 111 positions that must be obligatorily observed by a good muslim in a day, to worship his/her Creator(GOD).

These positions includes Standing, Genuflecting/Bowing, Prostrating and Sitting.

The break down in the five obligatory prayer sections in a day, goes thus;

1. SUBH=13positions
2. DHU'HUR=26positions
3. ASR=26positions
4. MAGRIB=20positions
5. ISHAA'I=26positions.
TOTAL=(13+26+26+20+26)=111 obligatory positions/day!

NUMERICAL SIGNIFICANCES OF THE 111 OBLIGATORY POSITIONS
(a) Witr{odd}: An hadith states that Allah is witr{i.e. One}, and he loves witr{Odd}. Even when the 20positions of the shaf'hi and witr is added to 111, it still remains odd, i.e. 131positions.

(b) Oneness of God: When 111 is broken down, the number 1 root still exists, which thereby signifies the Oneness of our Creator. Illustratively; (100+10+1=111)!

(c) 111 is the numerical value/equivalent for Alif(ألف) and Kaafii(كافي)!
Alif or Alfa literarily means a thousand, and its usually used to venerate an aalim(a learned muslim). Indeed, a pious learned muslim is better than a thousand unlearned ones.

Al-Kaafii means The Self-Sufficient, an attribute of Allah. What this signifies is that the 111 obligatory positions Suffices for a muslim in a day, though we can improve our reward by engaging in more.

May Allah grant us all the ability to worship Him, according to the stated divine dictates.

May He also accept us as one of ‘those that are nearer to Him’ (Muqarabuun), amen!

REASONS FOR "PEACE" BETWEEN ABRAHAMIC MONOTHEISTIC FAITHS AND OTHER WORLD RELIGIONS

by Ismaheel Bakare on Wednesday, 2 November 2011 at 08:47

We seek refuge with almighty God, the Supreme, and with His Noble Face and His Eternal Authority, from the accursed Satan.

Religion is supposed to be an avenue for communicating one's Creator and re~uniting with Him after all the phases passed through on one's journey into this world.
Peace between worshippers is a pre~requisite to achieve one's religious aims and objectives optimally.

Amongst the monotheistic faiths, Abraham is accorded the Patriach.

The Spirito~Religious Headship of Father Abraham stems from the fact that he walked with God, and rose to the Pedestal of Soul/Intimate friendship with His God (KHALEELU~LLAH).

The Major Abrahamic faiths are Christianity, Jewism and Islam. And they stemmed from Jesus, Moses and Muhammad respectively.

These three figures are Abraham's offsprings. Jesus and Moses are from Abraham's wife called Sarah through Isaac(Is'haq), while Muhammad is from Haggai(Haajarah) through Ishmael(Isma'eel).

A glaring fact is that all Abraham's seeds inherited from the Patriach the pristine worship of the One and Only God(Monotheism).

This essence of this faith is 'TOTAL "SUBMISSION" TO GOD ALMIGHTY.

A quick reason for Peace amongst these faiths is the fact that the holy greeting which they all have is that of PEACE(SHALOM ALEICHEM in hebrew & SALAM ALAEKUM in arabic, meaning PEACE BE UPON YOU).

This greeting and the teachings of the three holy books that enjoins Love, Respect and Patience shows that Peace should be one of their priorities.
And for other Religions. Since, majority of us believe that we have the same root, from Adam and Eve(Hawwah). We should all exude that sense of blood~relation to one another.

For those that do not know abt Adam and Eve, the culture and ethics of PEACE is a widely known, pronounced & accepted one, in which when one abides by, gives an ambient of Tranquility and Ease.

So, i humbly advise us all to try to imbibe all the Peaceful ethics mentioned earlier. May the Creator help us all in achieving that, amen.

AN ESSENTIAL PEACE STRATEGY AMONGST ABRAHAMIC-MONOTHEISTIC FAITHS:
Focusing and Emphasising mostly on our SIMILARITIES, rather than our DIFFERENCES, by Iconoclast, Critics, Theologians and Individual faithfuls!!!

Oh God! You are PEACE, and PEACE is from You, and we hope for PEACE (from You). Accept us into Paradise, your Abode of PEACE. Blessed be You, Oh our Lord, We seek (all these from You), Oh Owner of Majesty and Bounties, Amen!!!

FEVER AND THE HOTNESS OF HELL~FIRE: FOOD FOR THOUGHT&REMINDER ABOUT THE END~TIME TORMENT!!!

by Ismaheel Bakare on Tuesday, 9 August 2011 at 19:32

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Verily, Fever is from the Breeze of Hell~fire. Cool it off with water"!
إنما العما من فيح جهنم. فابردوها بالماء!

MY QUESTION/CURIOSITY
Why is it that Fever reaches its peak in the evening time, with/in the body of Children of Adam?

MY PERCEPTUAL ANSWER/RESPONSE
Since it was affirmed by the Prophet that Fever is from the breeze of hell~fire, one can easily infer that the 'reaching of the peak' of Fever at evening times is a reminder to the people about the Hell~fire that God has promised to wrongdoers at the Dawn/at the End~time!!!

PRAYER
Oh our Lord! Perfect for us, GOODNESS in this world and in the hereafter. And save us from the torment of Hell~fire...(AMEN)!!!
Oh God! Send blessings and benediction upon all your Messengers and Saints, especially upon The greatest quintiplet messengers of God (MUHAMMAD, JESUS, MOSES, NOAH & ABRAHAM), Amen.

KHADEEJAH: THE BLESSED LIGHT UPON LIGHT LADY

by Ismaheel Bakare

Friday, 27 January 2012 at 20:11
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, the Light.

Khadeejah, is no doubt, one of the best ladies the world has ever produced.

She was the first wife of the Best of all Creations, Prophet Muhammad, may the Peace and Blessings of God be upon him.

She was also the mother to the Leader of all Women of the Worlds, Faatimah the daughter of Prophet Muhammad.

She was also one of the four best women who ever lived, the rest of which are Faatimah, Mary/Maryam the mother of Jesus/Eesaa and Aasiyah the wife of Pharaoh.

She was the first woman to accept Islam at the hands of Prophet Muhammad.

She displayed courage and had faith in what her husband brought forth from his Creator and supported him with all that she had.

The literary meaning of Khadeejah is ‘Ahead/Always Ahead’. But that should be a topic for the etymologists and historians to shed more light upon.

This article intends to share the Abjad Numerological significances of the name 'Khadeejah' and the important event and Names that its numerical value synchronises with.

All of which stresses the fact that Khadeejah was a blessed and outstanding personage.

KHADEEJAH AS THE LADY OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT
Khadeejah can be called the blessed Light upon Light lady because she is and/or was a blessed woman as proven above.

Moreover, the Abjad numerical value of her name also synchronises with that of Light upon Light (Nuurun alaa Nuurin, as it appears in Chapter 24, Verse 35 of the Holy Qur’aan):-
KHADEEJAH = 622
NUURUN~ALAA~NUURIN (LIGHT~UPON~LIGHT) = 622
This shows that she’s an embodiment of Light. Indeed, she gave birth to the Leader of women in paradise and the first amongst the four best women that ever-lived .

They {four best women that ever-lived} are: {(1) Fatima (Prophet’s daughter), (2) Khadeejah (Fatima’s mother & the first wife of the Prophet), (3) Asiyah (Pharaoh’s wife), (4) Maryam (Jesus’ mother)} “Quote from the article entitled ‘Numerical Expression of The Light Upon Light Prayer”---http://nuurunalaanuurin.blogspot.com’.

THE ILLUSTRIOUS EVENT AND NAMES WITH THE BLESSED VALUE OF 622
-ALLAH, RAHMAAN, RAHEEM (GOD, MOST-COMPASSIONATE, MOST-MERCIFUL) = 66 + 298 + 258 = 622

-ALLAH, MUHAMMAD, TIJAANEE = 66 + 92 + 464 = 622

-The Epoch~Making Year of Conquest of Makkah as emphasised in the Qur'aan was 622 A.D.

It was described as the year which Help and Victory from Allah manifested fully in the Holy Mission of Prophet Muhammad.

It was also described in the Qur'aan as a year in which people entered into God's religion in their multitudes, without Compulsion but with their Free will.

One can describe that year as the year of Khadeejah (THE YEAR AHEAD OF OTHERS IN THE HISTORY OF ISLAM).

I humbly conclude this succinct write~up that as that year (622 A.D) was a year Ahead of other years;

so is Allah, Rahmaan, Raheem Ahead of other names of God, i.e. They're Ismul ahzam(s) as evident in BISMI LLAHI RAHMAAN RAHEEM;

so is the fact that Muhammad is the Prophet Ahead of others in all ramifications, and so is Sheikh Ahmad Tijani the Saint Ahead of others from the Beginning to the End;

so is Nuurun alaa Nuurin is Ahead of other divine parables and similitudes;

Lastly, so is Khadeejah, as the meaning of her name implies, is the Wife and Mother Ahead of other Wives and Mothers of the Universe.

And finally one of the four Ladies Ahead of other Ladies of the Universe.

Indeed, she was the Light upon Light lady!!!

This article is dedicated to all Pious Ladies of the Worlds, especially those answering the blessed name of Khadeejah; KHADEEJAH HADIZA AHMAD of Dutse, KHADEEJAH AJIBADE of Iyeku~Kaduna, KHADEEJAH ROBINSON (my very good fb pal), and others.

May Allah grant us all LIGHT UPON LIGHT, ameen!

Thanks to Ustadh Idrees Rufaa'ee, Ustadh al Muqadam Sulayman Odetayo, Ustadh Luqman Sayyed, Ustadh Muhammad (whom i fondly call sidi 92) and finally Khadeejah of Dutse.

WA L HAMDULILLAH RABIL AALAMEEN!!!

APPLICATION OF 'SCIENCE OF NUMBERS' TO PRAYERS AND SUPPLICATIONS

*PRAYER ARTICLE 1*
THE MOST SUPERIOR STATEMENTS (فضاءل الكلام):
{THE NUMERICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF REMEMBERING ALLAH AND THANKING HIM}
Compiled By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE
We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
-O Allah! send Benediction upon the Source of Divine Mercy, Muhammad {PBUH}.
-The Qur’an mentions the two best statements succinctly in the verse below:
“Therefore Remember me, I will remember you. Give Thanks to Me and reject Me not”. {Qur’an 2:152}
-Allah also admonishes us to be thankful, so that He will increase His goodness to us.
-He also states that: By remembering Him {i.e. Allah}, one finds rest of mind/soul tranquility.
WHAT THE PROPHET SAID ABOUT THE MOST SUPERIOR STATEMENTS
Narrated by Jabir {RTA}: the Prophet {PBUH} said, “The Most Superior way of Remembering Allah is by {the repetition} of Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu (there is no other god, except Allah) and the Most Superior Du‘aa (Prayer) is Alhamdu-lillah (all praise and thanks are Allah’s) ”. [Mishkat & Tirmidh]
-Hence, this hadith and the Qur‘an verse quoted above shows that the best statements are:
Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu and Alhamdu-lillah.
-One of the Sahabas, Abdullahi ibn Abass (RTA) {who was one of the most knowledgeable in Qur’aan Exegesis} opined that whoever recites Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu should follow it with Alhamdu-lillah because it follows that sequence in {Qur’an 40:65}: “He (Allah) is the Ever Living, there is no other god, but He {Laa-ilaaha-illa-Huwa}; so invoke Him making your worship pure for Him Alone. All praise and thanks are Allah’s, the Lord of the worlds {Alhamdu-lillahi, Rabil-aalameen}”.
-In the attempt to apply Abdullahi ibn Abass’ opinion, one can join both statements together, as shown below:
Small form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU*ALHAMDU-LILLAH}
Big form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH* ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN}
THE NUMERICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF RECITING/REPEATING THE BEST STATEMENTS/UTTERANCES
1. Small form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU*ALHAMDU-LILLAH}
لاإله إلا الله*ألحمد لله
-The additional numerical value of these two conglomerated statements shows that they are really the best statements and also a miracle of synchronism with other illustrious Verses of the Qur’an, Group of people and Events.

NUMERICAL VALUE OF THE BEST STATEMENTS/UTTERANCES
{Small form}
LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU = 165, while;
ALHAMDU-LILLAH = 148, and 165+148 = 313
VIRTUES OF THE NUMBER ‘313’
a. ALLAH’S MESSENGERS
The total number of Allah’s Prophets {Anbiyaa} that were Messengers
{Mursaleen} are “313”.
b. ASIHAABU-L-BADR
The total number of the Prophet’s Companions that participated in the
Victorious & Epoch-making Battle of Badr {Asihaabu-l-Badr} was “313”.
This can also be evidenced by the fact that the numerical value of
ARMY {JAESH} is 313. Hence, 313 is denoted or coded by the Ahlu-l
-Hisaab {Numerologists} as Adad al-jaesh {Number of Army/Victory}.
c. WITR
313 is an odd number and also a prime number {witr}.
The Prophet {PBUH} said: “Allah{SWT} is witr (One), and He loves witr (odd).”
And this is the reason why it’s good to choose odd numbers to pray with.
d. SYNCHRONISM WITH THE VERSES OF THE QUR’AN
The number of Alphabets in the last two verses of suratul Baqara (Aamanar-Rasuul) {Qur’an 2:285-286} are 313.
Abdullah ibn Abass (RTA) narrates that, [Once Prophet {PBUH} was sitting among us and he said , “In Heaven, there has been opened today a door which was never opened before, and out of it has descended an angel who has never descended before. The angel said to me {Prophet}, “Receive good news of two lights ‘Anwaar’ which have not been bestowed upon anyone else before. One is ‘suratul Faatiha {Opening Chapter}’ and the other is the concluding portion of ‘suratul Baqarah {i.e. Qur’an 2:285-286 (Aamanar-Rasuul)}’.”]
These two surahs have been called Light ‘Nur’, because on the Judgement day these will travel in front of their reciters (illuminating their path).
The Prophet {PBUH} also advised that Muslims should endeavor to recite these two verses, especially before going to sleep, for that will be sufficient for them.
-I know certainly that there’ll be other virtues of 313 that’ll be known to Islamic scholars {Raasikhuuna fii-l-ilm}.
*So, Laa-ilaaha-illa-llah*Alhamdu-lillah can be recited 313 times {it’s numerical value}, and Aamanar-Rasuul can be recited as its Khutba {Speech}, due to the fact that the Numerical value of the Most superior utterances/statements and the total alphabets {huruuf} in Aamanar-Rasuul synchronises as 313 {The Number of Victory}.
-I also wish to state that it’s very good to start and end any du‘aa with sending salaat {Prayer} upon the noble Prophet Muhammad {PBUH}. That pleases Allah so much!
-There are so many scientific miracles in the Qur’aan which are yet to be discovered and the Numerical miracles is just an aspect of the others.
-I believe that with more in-depth research, we {muslims} can discover more of these facts which will serve as a Comfort/Apple of the eye for the Ummah {Muhammadic Nation}.
-May Allah accept our good deeds, supplications and our jihad {strivings}, AAMEEN.
2. Big form: {LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH*
ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN}
ألحمد لله رب العلمين * محمد رسول الله لاإله إلا الله،
-The big form of the best statements is naturally a bigger miracle and I think the utterance of the big form will fetch the reciter more thawaab {reward}.
-A striking fact about the big form is that the total alphabets {huruuf} there in are 41, even as a layman in the field of Islam and Numerology, I know that 41 is a blessed number.
-The sahaba I have been mentioning from the beginning of this write-up {Abdullah ibn Abass (RTA) ‘the Qur’an Exegete’} says, “Once Jibreel {Angel Gabriel} came to the Prophet (PBUH), when he {Prophet} was very much worried, and said ‘Almighty Allah has sent His Salaam {Greetings} to you and has enquired why you look so sad and worried!’”. Although, Allah knows whatever is hidden in the hearts, yet by such enquiries, Allah means to indicate honour, respect and favours.
The Prophet {PBUH} replied, “O Gabriel (AS)! I am worried about my Ummah {Nation/Community}, as to how they will fare on Judgment day! ”. Jibreel asked, ‘Is it about the non-believers or the Muslims? He {Prophet} replied, ‘About the Muslims’.
Jibreel (AS) then took the Prophet {PBUH} along to a graveyard where the people of Banu Salamah were buried; there he {Jibreel} struck a grave with his wing and said ‘Qum! Bi idhni-llahi (Stand up! By the orders of Allah)’. Out of that grave, an extremely handsome man stood up, and he was reciting:
---LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH *
ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN---
ألحمد لله رب العلمين * محمد رسول الله لاإله إلا الله،
Jibreel (AS) told him to go back to his place, which he did.
Then he struck another grave with his wing. Out of it stood up an extremely ugly person with black face and worried eyes, who was saying, “Alas, there is nothing but sorrow, shame and horror!” Jibreel (AS) told him to return to his place, and then explained to the Prophet {PBUH} that, “The people will rise up on Judgment day in the same state that they were at the time of their death.””
-This indicates that, those who their tongues remain busy with the Remembrance of Allah and Thanking Allah will continue to recite that in their graves till they meet their Lord in Paradise {Jannah}.
-May Allah grant us the ability to busy our tongues with the Remembrance of Allah and to remain thankful to him at all times {whether in difficulty or at ease}, ameen.
NUMERICAL VALUE OF THE BEST STATEMENTS/UTTERANCES
{Long form}
LAA-ILAAHA-ILLAA-LLAHU, MUHAMMAD-RASUULU-LLAH=619, while;
ALHAMDU-LILLAHI-RABIL-AALAMEEN=581, and 619+581=1200

SYNCHRONISM WITH THE VERSES OF THE QUR’AN
-Some verses of the Qur’an that contains the string of words or phrases in the best statements {i.e. Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llahu, Muhammad Rasuulu-llah, Alhamdu-lillahi and Alhamdu-lillahi-Rabil-aalameen} have their total alphabets to be 1200, which synchronises with the numerical value of the big form of the best statements.

NUMERICAL EXPRESSION OF “THE LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER”
"الدعاء نور علي نور" في الصورة العددية
{“AD-DU‘AAHU NUURUN ALAA NUURIN” FII-S-SUURATI-L-‘ADADIYYAH} Compiled By: AL’HAAJ {MUQADAM} ISMA‘EEL ABUU-BAKR {AL-IKIRUUNWII}
INTRODUCTION
We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon Your Bright Light with which You filled Your ambience, in all the places of encompassing existence, Muhammad {May the Peace & Mercy of Allah be Upon Him}. AAMEEN…..
*An-Nuur {The Light} is one of the 99 Beautiful names of Allah and is a multi-faceted phenomenon that can be further learnt in details from Adepts and Mystics. Indeed, GOD guides to His light whomsoever He wills.
-This write-up applies the numerical value of Nuurun-alaa-Nuurin [Light upon Light (622)] with other names of Allah, Prophetic prayer of Light {which I refer as: “THE LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER (AD-DUHAAU NUURUN ALAA NUURIN)”}, Verses of the Qur’aan that all synchronize with the Numerical Value of Nuurun-alaa-Nuurin [Light upon Light(622)].
-The reason why I chose Light-upon-Light as a beacon in this article is because the Verse of the Parable of Allah’s Light i.e. “Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35}” and the Prophetic supplication of Light both has the phrase “NUURUN-ALAA-NUURIN (LIGHT UPON LIGHT)” in common.
FORMULA THAT SHOWS THE SYNCHRONISM OF THE NUMERICAL VALUES OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT, ALLAH’S GREATEST NAMES, VERSES OF THE QUR’AN AND THE MOST SUPERIOR UTTERANCES
1. NUURUN ALAA NUURIN=622
2. ALLAH+RAHMAAN+RAHEEM; 66+298+258=622
3a. PROPHETIC LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER=327 Alphabets
3b. THE VERSE OF THE PARABLE OF ALLAH’S LIGHT=199 Alphabets
3c. THE BIG FORM OF THE MOST SUPERIOR STATEMANTS=41 Alphabets
3d. THREE LAST VERSES OF SURATU-S-SAFFAT=55 Alphabets
3a+3b+3c+3d=327+199+41+55=622 Alphabets in no. 3
ANOTHER ASTOUNDING FACT ABOUT THE NUMBER (622)
The Numerical Value of the prophet’s wife’s name {Khadeejah} is 622. This shows that she’s an embodiment of Light. Indeed, she gave birth to the Leader of women in paradise and the first amongst the four best women that ever-lived . They {four best women that ever-lived} are: {(1) Fatima (Prophet’s daughter), (2) Khadeejah (Fatima’s mother & the first wife of the Prophet), (3) Asiyah(Pharaoh’s wife), (4)Maryam(Jesus’ mother)}.
THE NUMEROLOGICAL PRESCRIPTION OF THE INVOCATION
-In this kind of scenario, the Number and Letter Adepts will prescribe to the seeker that:
*ALLAH, RAHMAN, RAHEEM be recited 622 times & *NUURUN-ALAA-NUURIN be recited 622 times.
*The Quadruple Recitation {3a,b,c,d} serves as the khutba, because they add up to 622. {to be recited once}
KHUTBA {622 ALPHABETS IN ALL}
3a. PROPHETIC LIGHT UPON LIGHT PRAYER={327 Alphabets}

Wa yadribu-llahu-l-Amsaala li-n-Naasi, Wa-llahu bikulli shae’hin aleemun. (Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35})
TRANSLATION
“-God is the Light of the Heavens and the Earth, The PARABLE of His light is like a wall niche, in which there is a lamp:
The lamp is in a glass (or globe).
The glass is like a shining sphere/globe radiating from a blessed tree, a date-palm with neither of the (rising point) east nor (setting) west.
Its oil oft give radiance, such that even if GOD does not touch fire to it, LIGHT-UPON-LIGHT!
GOD guides to His light whomsoever He wills. And God narrates parables for men, for GOD knows all things.”

“THE DEAREST WORDS BEFORE ALLAH” & “THE GOOD DEEDS WHICH ENDURES”: {A NUMERICAL PERSPECTIVE OF THE FIVE STATEMENTS THAT TESTIFIES ALLAH’S ONENESS}
By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE
We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon the Advent of the Truth by the Truth, the Greatest Treasure and the Mysterious Light, Muhammad {PBUH} and upon all other Prophets and Saints {May Allah’s Peace, Mercy and Blessing Be Upon Them all}, ameen.
-The Prophet {PBUH} said: “The Dearest Words before Allah are four:
Subhaan-Allah, Alhamdu-lillah, Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llah, Allahu-Akbar. {Saheeh Muslim}
-The Prophet {PBUH} also said: “The Good Deeds which endure are:
Subhaan-Allah {Glory be to Allah}, Alhamdu-lillah {Praise be to Allah}, Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llah {There is no god, except Allah}, Allahu-Akbar {Allah is the greatest}, Laa-hawla-walaa-quwwata-illaa-billah {There’s no Might nor Power, except that of Allah}”. {Musnad Ahmad}
-The above ahaadeeth shows that the combination of the {55 Alphabets} five statements could be called by both titles, i.e. The dearest words before Allah & The good deeds which endure.
NUMERICAL VALUE OF “THE DEAREST WORDS BEFORE ALLAH” AND “THE GOOD DEEDS WHICH ENDURES”
***Subhaan-Allah=186, Alhamdu-lillah=148, Laa-ilaaha-illaa-llah=165, Allahu-Akbar=289, Laa-hawla-walaa-quwwata-illaa-billah=323;
***they add up as follows: 186+148+165+289+323=1,111
***This shows that these statements can be repeated 1,111 times and one can also research for verses of the Qur’an and the prophetic prayers that their Alphabets add up to 1,111 so that it can be recited as it’s khutba.
NOTE: Whoever discovers such verses and prophetic dua can contact me, so that I can update this write-up. May Allah reward us all abundantly, ameen.
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE NUMBER “1,111”
-The prophet stresses the fact that Allah is Witr {One}, He {Allah} loves Witr {Odd (numbers)}.
-The Prophet also states that whoever doesn’t observe Witr, is not from us {i.e. Muhammadic Nation(Al-Ummat Muhammad)}.
-The Numerologists and Mystic of Islam refer to this number ‘1,111’ as: (Adad al-Aekasha or Adad al-Aeqaga).
-They know that the number is deeply rooted in the Oneness {Wahadaniyya} of Allah and that it manifests the Essence of Islamic Monotheism .
*Only people of Hikmah {wisdom} will understand this write-up beyond the little I wrote here. May Allah grant us all al-Hikmah & spiritual perspicacity, Ameen.*

A NUMERICAL APPROACH TO THE QUR’ANIC PRAYER FOR SEEKING PIOUS SPOUSE AND OFFSPRINGS
By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE
We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon the leader of mankind {Muhammad} , father of the leader of women in paradise and the leader of the four best women {Fatimah}, husband of one of the four best amongst women {Khadeejah}. May Allah’s Peace, Mercy and Tranquility be upon him, ameen.
-Allah urges us in the Qur’aan to marry from amongst the pious {i.e. a God fearing spouse}, and if we have no financial means to do so, Allah states that one should remain chaste until He {Allah} enriches him.
-In the Sahihain, it is narrated that Ibn Mas‘ud {RTA} said the Prophet {PBUH} said:
“O young people {Youths}! Whoever amongst you can afford marriage, let him marry. Those who cannot afford it should resort to fasting, for it will be a cure for them.”
-The Prophet {PBUH} also states that: “The best gift a man could get from Allah after Taqwa {Piety} is ‘a pious wife’ {Mar’atu-s-saaliha}.”
-The prophet also states in another hadith narrated by Abu Huraira {RTA}: “A woman is married for four things; (1) her Wealth, (2) her Family status, (3) her Beauty, (4) her Religion. So, marry the religious woman, may your hand be filled with sand {a good expression}.”
QUR’ANIC PRAYER FOR SEEKING PIOUS SPOUSE AND OFFSPRING
RABANNAA! HAB-LANAA MIN AZWAAJINAA WA DHURRIYYATINAA QURRATA A‘HAYUNIN, WAJI-HALINAA LIL-MUTAQEENA IMAAMAAN. {AMEEN}
“Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring the comfort of our eyes, and make us the leaders of the Righteous”. {Qur’aan25:74}
A NUMERICAL APPROACH TO SUPPLICATING ALLAH WITH THE QUR’ANIC PRAYER FOR SEEKING PIOUS SPOUSE AND OFFSPRINGS
-The Numerical Value of the 50 lettered invocation for seeking pious spouse and offspring is 3,206.
-This synchronizes with the Numerical Value of a mode of seeking forgiveness. A 50 lettered mode of sending salat upon the prophet is also proferred as its khutba. May Allah accept our invocation, ameen.
-For convenience, the Numerical Value {3, 206} can be divided through 7days (458 per day) or 14days (229 per day). The 14days will be preferable, as it is comes out to be an odd number {witr form}.
PRAYER FORMULA
*ASTAGFUR-LLAH, GAFUUR, BAAQII {I SEEK YOUR FORGIVENESS ALLAH, EVERLASTING, ALL-FORGIVING}=3,206 {to be done at once or 229 times for 14days}.
* RABANNAA! HAB-LANAA MIN AZWAAJINAA WA DHURRIYYATINAA QURRATA A‘HAYUNIN, WAJI-HALINAA LIL-MUTAQEENA IMAAMAAN=3,206 {to be done at once or preferably, 229 times for 14days}.
*ALLAHUMMAH! SALLI ALAA SAYIDINAA MUHAMMAD, WA ALAA AALIHI WA AZWAAJIHI WA DHURIYATIHI WA SALIM TASLEEMAN=Once or Thrice.
NOTE: FATHERS HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN GUIDING THEIR CHILDREN IN THE SELECTION OF AN APPROPRIATE SPOUSE. INDEED, PROPHET ABRAHAM {IBRAHIM} PLAYED A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE SELECTION OF APPROPRIATE WIVES FOR HIS SONS {ISMAIL (ISHMAEL) AND IS’HAQ (ISAAC)}. IF THIS IS NOT WHOLLY POSSIBLE, FATHERS {& MOTHERS} WILL LARGELY CONTRIBUTE TO THIS PROCESS BY THEIR CEASELESS PRAYERS FOR THEIR CHILDREN FOR THIS PARTICULAR PURPOSE {i.e. GETTING THE IDEAL SPOUSE}. MAY ALLAH GRANT US {ALL} THAT WHICH IS GOOD FOR US IN THIS WORLD AND IN THE HEREAFTER, AMEEN.

THE TWO MOST REWARDING UTTERANCES AT TIMES OF HARDSHIP AND TRIBULATION:
{A MIRACULOUS SYNCHRONY OF THEIR NUMERICAL VALUES}
By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE
We seek refuge with Almighty Allah, from the Accursed Satan.
In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
-O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon our Master Muhammad. The Opener of what has been closed, the Seal of Antiquity, the Helper of the Truth by the Truth, the Guide to Your straight path, and upon His Households as is the due of his immense position and grandeur.
-At times of hardship and tribulation, the Creator {Allah} seeks to test the loyalty of His servants by the ways He {Allah} has described in the Qur’aan.
-This article seeks to single out the two *best* utterances at difficult times, and shed light on the miraculous synchronicity of their numerical value. This will serve as a beacon for more in-depth research into other rewarding utterances at times of misfortune. May Allah guide us towards the right path, ameen.
5 CLASSES OF HARDSHIPS/CALAMITIES/TRIBULATIONS WHICH ALLAH TESTS HIS SERVANTS BY
(1) FEAR, (2) HUNGER, (3) decrease in FINANCES/WEALTH, (4) decrease in LIFE SPAN or HEALTH DETERIORATION,
(5) decrease in FRUITS/AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE. (Q 2:155)
-Allah then urged the Prophet {PBUH} to give glad-tidings to the Patient Servants {i.e. Enduring servants}.
-Allah also described the Patient Servant as: “Those whom when are afflicted with Calamity {i.e. hardship & tribulation}”, they say;
*INNAA LILLAAHI, WA INNAA ILAEHI RAAJI‘UUN {TRULY! TO ALLAH WE BELONG & TRULY, TO HIM WE SHALL RETURN}. “UTTERANCE 1” (Q2:156)
-We’ll also agree that in whatever situation we are, we ought to Remember Allah, give Thanks and show gratitude to Him. (Q 2:152)
-The best and most profound form of giving Thanks in the Qur’aan is by saying:
**ALHAMDU-LILLAHI RABBI-L-‘AALAMEEN {ALL THE PRAISES AND THANKS BE TO ALLAH, THE LORD OF THE WORLDS}. “UTTERANCE 2” (Q 1:2)
5 SETS OF QUR’ANIC SOLUTIONS FOR DEPRESSION DUE TO HARDSHIP/CALAMITY/TRIBULATION {i.e ALLAH’S TEST}
(1) REMEMBRANCE OF ALLAH {DHIKR}.
(2) THANKING ALLAH & SHOWING GRATITUDE {HAMD WA SHUKR}.
(3) PATIENCE {SABR}. (4) PRAYER {AS-SALAAT}.
(5) SAYING & BELIEVING THAT: *INNAA LILLAAHI, WA INNAA ILAEHI RAAJI‘UUN {TRULY! TO ALLAH WE BELONG & TRULY, TO HIM WE SHALL RETURN}. (Q 2 : 152-156)
NUMERICAL VALUE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE TWO MOST REWARDING UTTERANCES AT TIMES OF HARDSHIP AND TRIBULATION
-At times of Calamity, the Adepts who might have discovered the synchrony of two important utterances of the five proffered Qur’anic solutions will advise the person in distress to recite them both 581 times each as shown below.
-Related verses of the Qur’an and prophetic prayer which their Alphabets add up to 581 {the Numerical Value of the two important utterances} can be recited afterwards {at least once} as the khutba {speech}.
UTTERANCE 1:
إنا لله و إنا إليه الراجعون
*INNAA LILLAAHI, WA INNAA ILAEHI RAAJI‘HUUN {WE ARE FROM ALLAH, AND UNTO HIM WE RETURN}=581times
UTTERANCE 2:
ألحمد لله رب العلمين
*ALHAMDU-LILLAHI RABBI-L-‘AALAMEEN {ALL PRAISE & THANKS BE TO ALLAH, THE LORD OF THE WORLDS}=581times

***Narrated by Abdul-Malik ibn Umair: The Prophet {PBUH} said, “In suratul Faatiha, there is cure for all ailments/diseases. {في فاتحة الكتاب شفاء من كل داء}*** “Bayhaqii”
***Narrated by Abii Sa‘eed ibn Mu‘allaa: The Prophet said, “…A chapter which is the greatest chapter in the Qur‘an…” {...سورة هي أعظم السور في القرءان...} “Saheeh Bukhaarii”
NOTE: This surah can be recited 139 times daily ‘if possible, for 73days in order to attain 10143’.
-Interestingly, tilsami (طلسم ) which means “ENIGMA/MYSTERY” has the numerical value of 139 and it synchronizes with the total alphabets in suratul Fatiha}.
-This synchronicity shows that this Grand surah is an “ENIGMA/MYSTERY” which also serves as an excellent ruqyah {healing incantation} as affirmed by the Prophet.

THE TIJANI PATH {TAREEQAT AT-TIJAANIYAH}:
THE PATH OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT
الطريقة التجانية: هي طريقة النور علي النور
By: ISMAHEEL BAKARE
I seek refuge with Allah, the Great and with His Noble Face and His Eternal Authority from Shaytan, the Accursed.
In the name of Allah, the Most-Compassionate, the Most-Merciful.
O Allah! send Benediction and Salute upon Your Bright Light with which You filled Your ambience, in all the places of encompassing existence, our Master {Sayyidinaa} Muhammad {May the Peace & Mercy of Allah be Upon Him}. AAMEEN…..
LIGHT UPON LIGHT {NUURUN ALAA NUURIN}
An-Nuur {The Light} is one of the 99 Beautiful names of Allah and is a multi-faceted phenomenon that can be further learnt in details from Adepts and Mystics. Indeed, GOD guides to His light whomsoever He wills.
“Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35}” also describes the Light of Allah with the following phrase: “LIGHT UPON LIGHT {NUURUN ALAA NUURIN}”.
Light upon Light can simply be understood to be a greater form of referring to Allah’s Light.
A simple illustration of Light upon Light is evident in the comparison of the Light of the Christians and the Jews and that of the Muslims.
The Light of the Christians and Jews are incomplete and the Light of the muslims, which I call Light upon Light is the most complete Light.
This can be easily proofed by the fact that the Christians and the Jews believed in their messengers alone.
But the Muslims believe not only in their messenger, they believe in all the 313 Messengers and the 124,000 prophets in general.
And this is one of the six articles of the Islamic Faith in which every muslim must abide by.

THE TIJANI PATH {TAREEQAT AT-TIJAANIYAH} AS THE “LIGHT UPON LIGHT PATH”
Tareeqat at-Tijaniyya is the End-time path in which Allah guides the Ummah {Community} of Prophet Muhammad.
The Tareeqa Tijaanii can be regarded as the Path of LIGHT upon LIGHT because of the Khaatim al-Wilaayah {Seal of Sainthood} pedestal of the Shaykh Ahmad bn Muhammad Saalim at-Tijaanii {RTA}.
Shaykh Ahmad Tijani {RTA} said that his feet are on the shoulders of all Awliyya {Saints} i.e. All the saints that were present in his time {1737-1815}, all those that were before him and all other saints till Judgment day.
Another illustrious phenomenon that can further show that the Tijani path is indeed the Light upon Light path is the Manifestation of Shaykh Ahmad at-Tijani’s prediction of the Flood which was to appear amongst his followers at the End time, through which people will troop into the path in their multitude.
This Flood appeared to be the Saahib al-Faedah {Shaykh al-Hajj Ibraheem Niyaas “Al-Kawlahy” (RTA)} who proselytized the path throughout the whole world and he also serves as Guiding-lamp for all muslims.
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
I once dreamt of a Light pursuing me and was about to descend upon me, I was running from it and I was reciting the Qur’aanic verse I call Light upon Light verse in “Suratu-n-Nuur {Q24:35}”.
I jumped on my mother’s bed and the Light descended upon the boy sleeping next to me and he began to tell me about my past, and this seemed to me to be true.
Some months later, the boy who was just a normal Christian became a staunch devotee in his religion.
I therefore infer from this dream that truly the Light descended upon him, but the Light was an incomplete one.
I also understood the reason why the Prophet encouraged us to invoke Allah to grant us Light upon Light.
Being a member of the Ummah {Community} of Prophet and the Follower of Shaykh Ahmad at-Tijaani are the best gifts that anyone can be bestowed with, because Islam is the religion of Light upon Light and the Tijani path is the path of Light upon Light.

NUMERICAL PROOF THAT SHOWS THAT THE TIJANI PATH IS THE LIGHT UPON LIGHT PATH
-The Numerical Value of the phrase “Nuurun alaa Nuurin {Light upon Light}” is 622.
-The additional Numerical Value of ALLAH, RAHMAN and RAHEEM is 622.
-The additional Numerical Value of ALLAH, MUHAMMAD and TIJANI is 622.
DEDUCTIONS FROM THE NUMERICAL PROOFS
It’s evident that the Numerical Values of the statement and names above synchronizes.
The above names of Allah i.e. {ALLAH, RAHMAN and RAHEEM} are ismu-llahi-l-Ahzam {with which when one calls the Creator with He answers, and when one asks Him by them, He answers}.
The Numerical Value of ALLAH, MUHAMMAD and TIJANI also adds up to 622.
This shows that the Light that reflects out of these names is a complete and perfect one.
And the Light upon Light that reflects from these names shows that Islam is the most complete Deen and the most complete Tareeqah is Tareeqat at-Tijaaniyah {Tijani Path}.
END NOTE
The Tareeqah Tijaniyyah is the End-time Tareeqah {Path}. It’s completeness also manifests from the fact that Tijanis respect and love all the Saints. *The writer is a Mureed and does not possess deep knowledge of the Tareeqah. I’m only trying to point out the Numerological miracle that shows that the Tariqah Tijaniyyah is the Path of Light upon Light. *
Oh Allah! Place within our Hearts Light, upon our Tongues Light, within our ears Light, within our eyes Light, place above us Light, beneath us Light, on our right Light, on our left Light, before us Light, behind us Light, place Light within our souls. Magnify Light for us, make Light abundant for us, grant us Light, make us Light. Oh Allah! Bestow upon us Light, place Light in our Tendons, in our flesh Light, in our Blood Light, in our Hair Light, in our Skin Light. Oh Allah! Place Light for us in our graves, Light in our bones, Increase us with Light and grant us LIGHT UPON LIGHT, ameen.

THE PATH OF LIGHT~UPON~LIGHT: THE TIJANI PATH
{Discovery of Shaykh Abdurazaaq Woleola Aafakallau, Nigeria}:

NUMERICAL PROOF THAT SHOWS THAT THE TIJANI PATH IS INDEED A MUHAMMADIC PATH OF LIGHT~UPON~LIGHT

By: Ismaheel Bakare
Published online at: http://fromnabiyytotijani.blogspot.com
on Saturday, 05 February 2011 at 16:45

The basic litany of the tijani path which is called "wazeefah", was given to Sheikh Tijani by the prophet, in a state of wakefulness.

A numerical proof for this is the numerical stamp of the prophet in the adhkaar{s} in the wazeefah.

The word An~Nabiyy {the Prophet} consists of five arabic letters, and the Numerical Value {NV} of each of the five components of the wazeefah are as stated below:

First Letter: Alif {NV = 1}
Second Letter: Lam {NV = 30}
Third Letter: Nun {NV = 50}
Fourth Letter: Ba {NV = 2}
Fifth Letter: Ya {NV = 10}

SYNCHRONICITY OF THE NUMERICAL VALUE OF THE 5 LETTERS IN AN~NABIYY {THE PROPHET} TO THE 5 COMPONENTS OF THE TIJANI LITANIES

1st Letter: Alif {NV = 1} synchronises with the fact that the starting of the wazeefah is the recitation of SURAT FATIHA 1ce {once}.

2nd Letter: Lam {NV = 30} synchronises with the fact that the second of the five components is the recitation of ASTAGFURLAHI~L~AZEEM LAZEE LAA~ILAAHA~ILAA HUWA~L~HAYYU~L~QAYYUM 30 times

3rd Letter: Nun {NV = 50} synchronises with the recitation of SALAT AL~FATIHI 50 times.

4th Letter: Ba {NV = 2}
5th Letter: Ya {NV = 10}

The 4th component of the Tijani Litany is the recitation of LAA~ILAAHA~ILLA~LLAH 100 times synchronises with the NV of the 5th letter, i.e. 10 raised to the power of the NV of 2 in the 4th letter of the word AN~NABIYY, i.e. {10 * 10 = 100}

The 5th component of the Tijani wazeefa of reciting JAUHARAT AL~KAMAAL 12 times synchronises with the addition of the 4th and 5th NV of the letters in AN~NABIYY, i.e. 2 + 10 = 12

Alhamdu~lillah for the synchrony of the numerical value of the core litanies with the word AN~NABIYY {النبي}.

This finding basically strengthens the conviction of the adepts, disciples & seekers on Allah's path.

The holistic credit of this finding goes to the Great Mystic and Adept of the Tijani path in Nigeria {SHEIKH ABDURAZAAQ MUBASHIR WOLEOLA 'AAFAAQALLAU'}.

MYSTICO~SPIRITUAL ODYSSEY:
{FROM THE PHYSICO~MUNDANE AMBIENT, THROUGH THE TERRESTIAL PLANE, TO THE CELESTIAL ABODE}

By: Ismaheel Bakare

Published online at: http://mystico-spiritualodyssey.blogspot.com

Glorified {and Exalted} is He {God}, Who took His slave {the Holy Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him)} for a journey by night, from the Sacred Mosque {at Mecca} to the Aqsa Mosque {in Jerusalem}, the neighbourhood whereof We have blessed, in order that we might show him of Our signs. Verily, He is the All~Hearer, the All~Seer (Qur'aan 17:1).

Peace and Blessings of God be upon all the Prophets and Messengers, especially on Muhammad {PBUH}.

The Mystical journey undertaken by Prophets of God and Saints is what I term as "Mystico~Spiritual Odyssey/Journey".

The journey by which God took Prophet Muhammad occurred while he was in a state midway between sleep and wakefulness.

Thereby, the journey wasn't only undertook mystico~spiritually, but also in his physical form.

The spiritual adepts in islam of all ages have stressed on the fact that such journey is inevitable for the achievement of Spiritual Bliss.

This kind of delicate journey can never be well described or holistically discussed, except from an experiential perception.

The Holy prophet perfectly described his odyssey to the people, in which they found difficult to understood and believed.

This journey, in this kind of world, can only be carried out through the help of a spiritual master or adept that is well grounded in the Legal and Spiritual aspects of Islaam {i.e. Shariah and Tasawwuf} ambidextrously.

May Allah guide and guard us through His path, that leads to Eternal Bliss, amen!!!

{A TIP} FROM THE {OCEAN OF} PROOFS FOR THE PATH OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT!
(MIN JAWAAMI’I-L-HUJJAAT LIL~T~TAREEQAT AN~NUUR ALAA N NUUR!)

By: Ismaheel Bakare

In Allah's name, the Most~Gracious, the Most~Merciful, the Living, the Eternal.
Oh Allah, bless our Master Muhammad, the Enigmatic Light.
GENERAL PROOF FOR SUFISM
The Pristine Sufism aim or goal was to achieve fully/complete all the benefits of the three folds of our noble Deen (Religion), i.e. Islam (Submission/Peace), Eemaan (Belief) and Ihsaan (Perfection/Excellence).
All the pristine and undeviated paths of Sufism, are deeply rooted in the Qur'aan and Sunnah.
The Numerical proof below shows that truly, BY holding fast to the QUR'AAN, as it is expected of a pristine sufi, one will achieve the threefolds of the deen:
~BI QUR'AAN(By Qur'aan) = 354.
~ISLAM (132) + EEMAAN (102) + IHSAAN (120) = 354;
The above Abjad Numeric equation shows that truly, By the Qur'aan, one can achieve / attain the 3 basics of the Deen!!!
Indeed, these numerical synchronies are not just coincidences. For verily, God keeps count of all things (أحصي كل شيء عددا).
From the above illustration, one can draw a cue that the major object of the multifarious sufi path is simple, i.e. to serve as the spirit/platform of the external forms of worship by trying to achieve the three folds of our deen, especially the Ihsaan aspect, which requires the faithful Believer (Mu’min) to worship God, as though he/she sees Him, and for him/her to have the full awareness that God sees him/her all the time
No other Islamic aspect treats this issue in details and rightly, except through the mystical paths of sufis, especially through a standard leadership/mentorship of a murshid (guide) whom is well-grounded in fiqh/dictates of the sharee’ah and tasawwuf.

FROM THE OCEAN OF PROOFS FOR THE TIJANI PATH
1. As it has been submitted in previous articles, all pristine and undeviated paths can be ascribed as the 'Paths of Lights', but the End~time path(Tijani path) is undoubtedly the 'Path of Light upon Light', with theNumerical proof shown below:
~NUURUN ALAA NUURIN=622
~ALLAH, MUHAMMAD, TIJAANII=622
(See my facebook note titled; THE TIJANI PATH: THE PATH OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT {http://facebook.com/ismaeelbakare}) .
2. The numerical stamp{AN-NABIYY} on one of the tijani litany(wadheefa) is another epoch~making proof that shows that the path is indeed, a prophetic bequest and a path of light upon light. See; http://fromnabiyytotijani.blogspot.com
3. The equation below shows that the spiritual marvels/haqeeqah of the enigmatic light(prophet Muhammad) can only be unraveled by following tijani:

~NUUR AL MUTALSAM{Enigmatic Light}=466
4. MIN HUJJAT AL-FAEDAT AL-IBRAHIMIYYAH{FROM THE PROOFS OF SHEIKH IBRAHIM'S SPIRITUAL FLOODSHIP}
FAEDAT TIJAAN(FLOOD OF TIJAAN)=1349;
FAEDAT MAUHAMMAD, RASUULU-LLAH(FLOOD OF MUHAMMAD, GOD’S APOSTLE)=1349;
FAEDAT(895) + TIJAAN/MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH(454)=1349
IN 1349, SHEIKH WAS 29 YEARS OLD, AND HE ANNOUNCED HIMSELF OPENLY AS THE SPIRITUAL FLOOD THAT SHEIKH TIJAANI PREDICTED.
THE NUMERICAL VALUE OF TIJAAN, not TIJAANEE synchronises with that of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH, i.e. the Sheikh didn't only inherit from Sheikh Tijani, but he inherited what flowed from the abode of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH to TIJAN, and finally to our father.
MAY ALLAH GRANT US ALL THE BARAKA OF THE FAEDAH!!!
5. SHEIKH AHMAD TIJAANI’S COMING INTO THE WORLD
Sheikh Ahmad Tijani was given birth to in the year 1737. That year the light of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH reappeared in a village called TIJAAN. This can be evidenced by the fact that the Numerical Value of MUHAMMAD RASULULLAH and TIJAAN are the same (454).
Sheikh Tijani bore two matchless titles, that none but he can bear (KHAATIM AL-AWLIYYAA and QUTB AL-MAQTUUM). The numerical value of the two adds upto the year that the sheikh was given birth to: KHAATIM AL-AWLIYYAA = 1120 and: QUTB MAQTUUM = 616; {1121+616=1737}
Thanks to Allah. I appreciate My Sheikh, Rufai Idris Oladipupo, Sheikh Luqman Sayyed. And those that inspired this, especially Ustadh Cisse Zaman and Ustadh Ma'aruf Ogunbunmi. GOD BLESS THEM ALL

WHO IS A WALIYY or SAINT or FRIEND OF GOD?: NUMERICO-PERCEPTUAL ANSWER
A succinct way to answer this question is to look at the major gift the waliyy has from His Friend (God).
That gift is the gift of Acceptance of Prayer. God listens to His Friends, and responds to them accordingly.
This can be evidenced by the fact that the Numerical Values of Waliyy (Saint or Friend of God) and Mujaab (Someone whose Prayers are Accepted) are 46.
WALIYY (SAINT OR FRIEND OF GOD) = 46
MUJAAB (SOMEONE WHOSE PRAYERS ARE ACCEPTED) = 46
Another question of interest is that how can one achieve the position of Wilaayah/Frienship with God.
A verse of the Qur’aan gives the answer to that question of how to seek such position, and the numbers of alphabets in the verse are 46.
Wa mina laeli, fatahajad bihi Naafilatan laka, asaa an yab’hasaka Rabbuka Maqaaman Mahmuudan (In a part of the night, exercise Tahajud or Night prayer with your Voluntary acts of worship. May be Your Lord will raise you to a Praiseworthy Station)=46 Alphabets!
May Allah grant us the position of His Friendship, amen.

Oh Allah, Grant us the ability to Love You, and to Love those who Love You, and to Love whatsoever brings us nearer to closer to Your Love, and make Your Love more attractive to us, than Cold water is to the thirsty, AMEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOLISTIC MODE OF WORSHIP!!!
By: Al'haaj Ismaeel Abuu-Bakr
by Ismaheel Bakare on Monday, 12 September 2011 at 05:37
There are 111 positions that must be obligatorily observed by a good muslim in a day, to worship his/her Creator(GOD).

These positions includes Standing, Genuflecting/Bowing, Prostrating and Sitting.

The break down in the five obligatory prayer sections in a day, goes thus;

1. SUBH=13positions
2. DHU'HUR=26positions
3. ASR=26positions
4. MAGRIB=20positions
5. ISHAA'I=26positions.
TOTAL=(13+26+26+20+26)=111 obligatory positions/day!

NUMERICAL SIGNIFICANCES OF THE 111 OBLIGATORY POSITIONS
(a) Witr{odd}: An hadith states that Allah is witr{i.e. One}, and he loves witr{Odd}. Even when the 20positions of the shaf'hi and witr is added to 111, it still remains odd, i.e. 131positions.

(b) Oneness of God: When 111 is broken down, the number 1 root still exists, which thereby signifies the Oneness of our Creator. Illustratively; (100+10+1=111)!

(c) 111 is the numerical value/equivalent for Alif(ألف) and Kaafii(كافي)!
Alif or Alfa literarily means a thousand, and its usually used to venerate an aalim(a learned muslim). Indeed, a pious learned muslim is better than a thousand unlearned ones.

Al-Kaafii means The Self-Sufficient, an attribute of Allah. What this signifies is that the 111 obligatory positions Suffices for a muslim in a day, though we can improve our reward by engaging in more.

May Allah grant us all the ability to worship Him, according to the stated divine dictates.

May He also accept us as one of ‘those that are nearer to Him’ (Muqarabuun), amen!

REASONS FOR "PEACE" BETWEEN ABRAHAMIC MONOTHEISTIC FAITHS AND OTHER WORLD RELIGIONS

by Ismaheel Bakare on Wednesday, 2 November 2011 at 08:47
We seek refuge with almighty God, the Supreme, and with His Noble Face and His Eternal Authority, from the accursed Satan.
Religion is supposed to be an avenue for communicating one's Creator and re~uniting with Him after all the phases passed through on one's journey into this world.
Peace between worshippers is a pre~requisite to achieve one's religious aims and objectives optimally.
Amongst the monotheistic faiths, Abraham is accorded the Patriach.
The Spirito~Religious Headship of Father Abraham stems from the fact that he walked with God, and rose to the Pedestal of Soul/Intimate friendship with His God (KHALEELU~LLAH).
The Major Abrahamic faiths are Christianity, Jewism and Islam. And they stemmed from Jesus, Moses and Muhammad respectively.
These three figures are Abraham's offsprings. Jesus and Moses are from Abraham's wife called Sarah through Isaac(Is'haq), while Muhammad is from Haggai(Haajarah) through Ishmael(Isma'eel).
A glaring fact is that all Abraham's seeds inherited from the Patriach the pristine worship of the One and Only God(Monotheism).
This essence of this faith is 'TOTAL "SUBMISSION" TO GOD ALMIGHTY.
A quick reason for Peace amongst these faiths is the fact that the holy greeting which they all have is that of PEACE(SHALOM ALEICHEM in hebrew & SALAM ALAEKUM in arabic, meaning PEACE BE UPON YOU).
This greeting and the teachings of the three holy books that enjoins Love, Respect and Patience shows that Peace should be one of their priorities.
And for other Religions. Since, majority of us believe that we have the same root, from Adam and Eve(Hawwah). We should all exude that sense of blood~relation to one another.
For those that do not know abt Adam and Eve, the culture and ethics of PEACE is a widely known, pronounced & accepted one, in which when one abides by, gives an ambient of Tranquility and Ease.
So, i humbly advise us all to try to imbibe all the Peaceful ethics mentioned earlier. May the Creator help us all in achieving that, amen.
AN ESSENTIAL PEACE STRATEGY AMONGST ABRAHAMIC-MONOTHEISTIC FAITHS:
Focusing and Emphasising mostly on our SIMILARITIES, rather than our DIFFERENCES, by Iconoclast, Critics, Theologians and Individual faithfuls!!!
Oh God! You are PEACE, and PEACE is from You, and we hope for PEACE (from You). Accept us into Paradise, your Abode of PEACE. Blessed be You, Oh our Lord, We seek (all these from You), Oh Owner of Majesty and Bounties, Amen!!!

FEVER AND THE HOTNESS OF HELL~FIRE: FOOD FOR THOUGHT&REMINDER ABOUT THE END~TIME TORMENT!!!
by Ismaheel Bakare on Tuesday, 9 August 2011 at 19:32
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Verily, Fever is from the Breeze of Hell~fire. Cool it off with water"!
إنما العما من فيح جهنم. فابردوها بالماء!
MY QUESTION/CURIOSITY
Why is it that Fever reaches its peak in the evening time, with/in the body of Children of Adam?
MY PERCEPTUAL ANSWER/RESPONSE
Since it was affirmed by the Prophet that Fever is from the breeze of hell~fire, one can easily infer that the 'reaching of the peak' of Fever at evening times is a reminder to the people about the Hell~fire that God has promised to wrongdoers at the Dawn/at the End~time!!!
PRAYER
Oh our Lord! Perfect for us, GOODNESS in this world and in the hereafter. And save us from the torment of Hell~fire...(AMEN)!!!
Oh God! Send blessings and benediction upon all your Messengers and Saints, especially upon The greatest quintiplet messengers of God (MUHAMMAD, JESUS, MOSES, NOAH & ABRAHAM), Amen.

KHADEEJAH: THE BLESSED LIGHT UPON LIGHT LADY
by Ismaheel Bakare
Friday, 27 January 2012 at 20:11
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, the Light.

Khadeejah, is no doubt, one of the best ladies the world has ever produced.

She was the first wife of the Best of all Creations, Prophet Muhammad, may the Peace and Blessings of God be upon him.

She was also the mother to the Leader of all Women of the Worlds, Faatimah the daughter of Prophet Muhammad.

She was also one of the four best women who ever lived, the rest of which are Faatimah, Mary/Maryam the mother of Jesus/Eesaa and Aasiyah the wife of Pharaoh.

She was the first woman to accept Islam at the hands of Prophet Muhammad.

She displayed courage and had faith in what her husband brought forth from his Creator and supported him with all that she had.

The literary meaning of Khadeejah is ‘Ahead/Always Ahead’. But that should be a topic for the etymologists and historians to shed more light upon.

This article intends to share the Abjad Numerological significances of the name 'Khadeejah' and the important event and Names that its numerical value synchronises with.

All of which stresses the fact that Khadeejah was a blessed and outstanding personage.
KHADEEJAH AS THE LADY OF LIGHT UPON LIGHT
Khadeejah can be called the blessed Light upon Light lady because she is and/or was a blessed woman as proven above.

Moreover, the Abjad numerical value of her name also synchronises with that of Light upon Light (Nuurun alaa Nuurin, as it appears in Chapter 24, Verse 35 of the Holy Qur’aan):-
KHADEEJAH = 622
NUURUN~ALAA~NUURIN (LIGHT~UPON~LIGHT) = 622
This shows that she’s an embodiment of Light. Indeed, she gave birth to the Leader of women in paradise and the first amongst the four best women that ever-lived .

They {four best women that ever-lived} are: {(1) Fatima (Prophet’s daughter), (2) Khadeejah (Fatima’s mother & the first wife of the Prophet), (3) Asiyah (Pharaoh’s wife), (4) Maryam (Jesus’ mother)} “Quote from the article entitled ‘Numerical Expression of The Light Upon Light Prayer”---http://nuurunalaanuurin.blogspot.com’.

THE ILLUSTRIOUS EVENT AND NAMES WITH THE BLESSED VALUE OF 622
-ALLAH, RAHMAAN, RAHEEM (GOD, MOST-COMPASSIONATE, MOST-MERCIFUL) = 66 + 298 + 258 = 622

-ALLAH, MUHAMMAD, TIJAANEE = 66 + 92 + 464 = 622

-The Epoch~Making Year of Conquest of Makkah as emphasised in the Qur'aan was 622 A.D.

It was described as the year which Help and Victory from Allah manifested fully in the Holy Mission of Prophet Muhammad.

It was also described in the Qur'aan as a year in which people entered into God's religion in their multitudes, without Compulsion but with their Free will.

One can describe that year as the year of Khadeejah (THE YEAR AHEAD OF OTHERS IN THE HISTORY OF ISLAM).

I humbly conclude this succinct write~up that as that year (622 A.D) was a year Ahead of other years;

so is Allah, Rahmaan, Raheem Ahead of other names of God, i.e. They're Ismul ahzam(s) as evident in BISMI LLAHI RAHMAAN RAHEEM;

so is the fact that Muhammad is the Prophet Ahead of others in all ramifications, and so is Sheikh Ahmad Tijani the Saint Ahead of others from the Beginning to the End;

so is Nuurun alaa Nuurin is Ahead of other divine parables and similitudes;

Lastly, so is Khadeejah, as the meaning of her name implies, is the Wife and Mother Ahead of other Wives and Mothers of the Universe.

And finally one of the four Ladies Ahead of other Ladies of the Universe.

Indeed, she was the Light upon Light lady!!!

This article is dedicated to all Pious Ladies of the Worlds, especially those answering the blessed name of Khadeejah; KHADEEJAH HADIZA AHMAD of Dutse, KHADEEJAH AJIBADE of Iyeku~Kaduna, KHADEEJAH ROBINSON (my very good fb pal), and others.

May Allah grant us all LIGHT UPON LIGHT, ameen!

Thanks to Ustadh Idrees Rufaa'ee, Ustadh al Muqadam Sulayman Odetayo, Ustadh Luqman Sayyed, Ustadh Muhammad (whom i fondly call sidi 92) and finally Khadeejah of Dutse.

WA L HAMDULILLAH RABIL AALAMEEN!!!
