Informing one’s shaikh of one’s conditions and following his
o
instructions have both been the hallmarks of those seeking
rectitude in the path of sulûk. This is an important right of the

shaikh in the department of reformation, a means for the
.
reformation of those treading the path of sulûk, and the way of

the auliyâ’ of this ummah

“Four conditions are essential for [total] benefit: (1) informing the
shaikh of one’s conditions, (2) following the shaikh’s instructions, (3)

having full confidence in the shaikh, (4) submitting to the shaikh.”
.

Someone asked my beloved mentor and master, ‘Ârif Billâh
w
Hadrat Aqdas Maulânâ Shah Hakim Muhammad Akhtar Sâhib
adâmallâhu zilluhum, as to the difference between ittibâ‘
(following the shaikh’s instructions) and inqiyâd (submitting to
w
the shaikh). Hadrat replied that ittibâ‘ refers to outward
obedience, conforming to every order of the shaikh, and
wrestricting oneself to every advice of his in the path of
reformation. On the other hand, inqiyâd refers to internal
submission, handing oneself over to the shaikh, and affirming
all that he says. That the person restricts himself – even with his
heart – to the diagnosis and judgement of his shaikh and gives
no room whatsoever to his own opinion.

In the past, those who were connected with Hakîm al-Ummah
Mujaddid al-Millah Maulânâ Shâh Ashraf ‘Alî Sâhib Thrânwî
rahimahullâh used to write letters to him with regard to their
o
reformation and he used to reply to these letters. These have
been published as a book titled “Tarbîyyatus Sâlik”. This is a

unique treasure of treatments for the ailments of the soul, and
.
from which those who seek reformation continue to derive

benefit.
h
In the present era, Allâh Ta’ala has taken monumental work
from my spiritual guide and master, ‘Ârif Billâh Hadrat
a
Maulânâ Shah Hakim Muhammad Akhtar Sâhib dâmat
barakâtuhum. He wrote answers toq numerous letters which,
apart from providing treatments for spiritual ailments, contain
unique treatments for the destrunctive ailments of this era, viz.
badd nazrî (looking at strange women) and false love. The
a
treatments that he provides for these ailments cannot be found
in the history of tasawwuf because the intensity with which
h
these destructive ailments have manifested themselves in these
times probably never manifested themselves in previous eras.
k
The manner in which Allâh Ta’ala is employing him to the task
of treating these ailments is without doubt a revivalist

contribution w.hich is taken from the mujaddid (reviver) of the
century. Th is aspect of lowering one’s gaze had disappeared
w
from the people to such an extent that they did not even
consider it a sin. Allâh Ta’ala employed Hadrat for this task and
exposed the harms and destructions of this ailment to the
w
ummah. Senior ‘ulamâ’ therefore acknowledge that Hadrat is a
reviver of this teaching of “lowering the gaze” and the reviver
w
of tasawwuf in this century. This is not a statement of anybody
and everybody, but I personally heard it from certain senior
‘ulamâ’ of Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa and Britain. They
say that the achievements of Hadrat demonstrate that he is the
4
Solutions to the Spiritual Maladies for the Lovers of Allah Ta’ala

g
mujaddid of the fifteenth century. Furthermore, the tricks and
plots of the soul with regard to false love and evil glancers and
the treatments for these are expounded by him in such detail,
o
that an example of this cannot be found in the books of our
elders. The reason for this is that this is an ailm ent that is
peculiar to this era, and which was not prevale.nt to such an
extent and with such intensity in the pas t. Allâh Ta’ala
h
employed Hadrat for the rectification of this monumental task.
This is the bounty of Allâh Ta’ala which He gives to whomever
a
He wills.

May Allâh Ta’ala mainthain the affectionate shadow of Hadrat
for a long time to come, and may He enable his bounties and

If the inspirational prescriptions which Hadrat wrote to his
followers for the treatment of evil glances and false love were to
.
be collected, it is hoped that they will serve as beacons of light
till the day of Resurrection. The series “Tarbîyyat-e-‘Âshiqân-e-
w
Khudâ” in the monthly periodical “al-Abrâr” was initiated for
the benefit of the Muslim ummah and specifically for those
treading the path [of tasawwuf]. This series still continues.

We request those who are connected to Hadrat and if they have
such letters to make a photocopy of them and send them
waddressed to Hadrat, Khânqâh Ashrafîyyah Imdâdîyyah,

name from the photocopy or original and send the letter to us.

The published letters and answers from “al-Abrâr” are now

benefit of all. May Allâh Ta’ala accept this work and may He

“The world seemed so appealing, but no sooner we went into the

q
1. Condition: Your lofty teachings and words of advice have
left me shaken with regard to the past, present and future.
n
Answer: May you be blessed for being so affected by the words
of your spiritual guide, that you have been bestowed with the
a
bounty of love for your shaikh and understanding of sulûk. Be
grateful for this.
h

2. Condition: I feel like removing my heart and placing it
k
before you. However, your advice of not expressing one’s sins
is preventing me from doing this.

Answer: Instead of expressing your sins, it is sufficient for you
.
to merely write the demands of the sin: you have an extra

inclination towards such and such sins.
w
3. Condition: I offer four rak‘ats of optional salâh as a self-
imposed punishment for not lowering my gaze.
w
Answer: This treatment is appropriate. After offering the
optional salâh, you should also consider crying or adopting the
w
appearance of a crying person as part of your compensation.
4. Condition: While offering optional salâh as self-imposed
punishment or while making du‘â, I was able to cry and my
heart would become light through the blessings of your du‘âs.

Answer: Mâshâ’ Allâh.
r
5. Condition: When I go to the Masjid – then with the object
of guarding my eyes - I do not even have the courageo to look
at who is sitting next to me. I fear that if the one who is sitting
next to me is a friend, associate or someone whom I know, he
should not consider this act of mine [of not look.ing at him] to
be inattentiveness to him or misconstrue it for something
else. h
Answer: Do not bother about this. Remain directed towards
a
your Sustainer. But if you happen to look at him, then smile,
greet him, and ask him about his health, etc.
q
6. Condition: Hadrat! Be kind to me. My past is extremely
dark, frightening, terrifying annd blotted. I have rubbed soot
on my face with my own hands [i.e. disgraced my own self],
and this is not hidden from you. It is only through your
a
kindness that this soot can be removed. Extend your hand of
kindness for I have none but you.
h
Answer: Do not worry, the water of Allâh’s mercy washes away
all stains, and all thek soot on the face is washed off. What can be
said of the water of His mercy!

with a young boy and I perceived a conspiracy on the part of
w
my soul.
Answer: Remain extremely wary of young boys.
8. Condition: When I engage in the dhikr of Allâh Ta’ala, I do
not experience any joy most of the time.

Answer: Dhikr is the object – not joy nor an absence of joy.
Therefore, a joyless person should not feel pity overr his
joylessness.

Maulânâ Muftî Bashîr Ahmad Sâhib, of Qâdî district,
Âzâd Kashmîr who is a khalîfnah of Hadrat, wrote thus:
9. Condition: Your personality is like that of the spring rain.

Wherever one places one’s foot, pearls have rained down
there. The dry fields have become green and lush, and the
h
people are swaying from side to side with the repeated
chanting of [the kalimah] tauhîd. O Allâh! Increase this and
k
multiply it. Mâshâ’ Allâh, many blessings manifested
themselves through your last trip to Kashmir. Many people
are keeping be ards, many have become regular with their
salâh, and the.ir beliefs have come in line. May Allâh Ta’ala
enable us to benefit more and more. Âmîn.

Answer: May Allâh Ta’ala treat me in accordance with your
good thoughts about me.
