Nikah aur Valima Ki Sunnat Aur Hamare Muashray Ki Buri Rasumat

“سنت کے مطابق نکاح اور ولیمہ، اور ہمارے معاشرے میں رائج رسومات”

حضور اکرمﷺ سے حقیقی عشق و محبت کا تقاضہ ہے کہ ہم اپنے معاشرے، خاندان اور برادری میں رائج رسومات کو ترک کرکے ہر خوشی اور غم کے موقع پر صرف سرور عالمﷺ کی سنت کو اختیار کریں

ان رسومات کی وجہ سے آج ہمارے معاشرے میں زنا کرنا آسان مگر نکاح کرنا انتہائی مشکل ہو چکا ہے

اس سلسلے میں عارف باللہ حضرت مولانا شاہ حکیم محمد اختر صاحب رح کا یہ ملفوظ انتہائی اہمیت کا حامل ہے جسے ہم سب کو پڑھ کر عمل کرنے کا عہد کرنا چاہیے

یہی حقیقی عشقِ رسولﷺ ہے کہ جس وقت معاشرہ حضور ﷺ کی سنتوں کو چھوڑ رہا ہو، ہم انکو اختیار کریں

اللہ تعالٰی ہمیں عمل کی توفیق عطا فرماے

Short Biography

Hazrat Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Saheb RA

(1928 – 2013)

Note: This short biography has been taken from Khanqah.org and was written before Hazrat passed away

Shaykh Maulana Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Saheb (Daamat Barakaatuhum) is one of the greatest gifted scholars of Islam today. His reputation and standing to the Muslims of Asian subcontinent needs no introduction. However, for the benefit of others, Shaykh has been favored by Allah (swt) to have been nurtured by three of the greatest and most renowned Wali’s (saints) of his time.

Shaykh’s inclination towards the Creator, the Almighty Allah (swt) began before he even reached puberty. He dedicated his life from before teens in the service of those pious servants of Allah (swt) whom the world today refers as Ahlullah (saints). From the tender age of 12, he began attending discourses of renowned scholars of the time. At the age of 15, he took bay’at (pledge) to the great Wali (saint) of his time, Shaykh Shah Muhammad Ahmed (ra) and spent three years continuously in his lofty company. Thereafter Shaykh was guided to the company of the famous Wali (saint) Shaykh Shah Abdul Ghani Phoolpuri (ra), with whom he spent 17 years. The Shaykh’s service and dedication to his Shaykh is unsurpassable in recent times. During the seventeen years with Shaykh Phoolpuri (ra) the nights were spent in a retreat (jungle) from where no other human sound was audible except for the Shaykh’s (Phoolpuri)zikr (remembrance of Allah). It was under the tutelage of Shaykh Phoolpuri for seventeen years that Hazrat mastered the scholarly work of Mathnawi by Shaykh Rumi. Shaykh Phoolpuri (ra) himself was guided by the greatest scholar of recent history, Hakeem ul Ummat Shaykh Ashraf Ali Thanwi (ra), who in turn was taught the Mathnawi by Shaykh Haji Imdadullah (ra).

Shaykh’s discourses permeate the listeners’ heart with Allah’s love, Greatness and hope of salvation. Every word he utters brings one closer to the Creator, Almighty Allah (swt). His company impresses upon those around him to converge their mental as well as physical ‘being‘ into living a life to the Creator’s criterion. His discourses know no language, color or age barriers and even those alien of Urdu benefit. During Ramadan 1419 (1998/1999) a European from Belgium, who could not speak not understand Urdu, spent Ramadan with Shaykh. He was occasionally seen mesmerized by the Shaykh discourses and tears rolled down his cheeks. When someone asked him what was that kept him with Shaykh’s company? He replied, “Shaykh’s words touch my heart and my eyes involuntarily weep, thinking of Allah’s Greatness”. It is because of Shaykh’s great appreciation and understanding of Allah’s qualities that his Shaykh awarded him the title of Aarif Billah (One who has become acquainted with Allah’s qualities).

In his discourses and writings he explores profound topics relevant to the ummah(community) at present time. .His understanding and explanation of man’s spiritual relationship with Allah (swt), the prevalent spiritual and physical maladies and its rectification are topics taken up by other Ulemas (scholars of Islam) throughout the world.

The Will

Arif Billah Hazrat Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Sahab R.A. 

Dated: 20th Rabi-ul-Awwal 1420 | 5th July 1999

1. Alhamdulillah, this servant has not left behind any outstanding debts.

2. I have made Maulana Mazhar Sahab the owner of all the items that I am currently using. Maulana Mazhar Saheb has loaned these items to me, hence I am using them. The laws of inheritance will not apply to these items. Maulana Mazhar Saheb is also the owner of the blessed frames that are on the walls (of the Khanqah) and the same ruling will apply to these items as explained above.

3. The bags of cash that are labelled “gifts of the servant (i.e. Hadrat Wala)” will be distributed according to the Shari’ee law of inheritance. My sons will receive two shares each and my daughter will receive one share. The Shari’ee law of inheritance will also apply to my money that is kept by Sayyid Ishrat Jameel, after discharging the Fidya of the Salaah and Fasts that are outstanding.

4. I make a Wasiyyat (bequest) for myself, family members, and close associates that every moment of one’s life should be sacrificed in pleasing Allah and one should not displease Allah for a single moment by indulging in any form of Haraam. If one commits an error, then please Allah by repenting, seeking forgiveness and crying before Allah.

5. One should always remain in the companionship of the pious, and one should always be under the guidance of such a Sheikh with whom he is compatible.

5. Remain in close companionship of the pious throughout your lives and always remain under the guidance of a pious Shaikh with whom you’re compatible.

6. Adopt extreme piety in financial matters and always refer to the Muftis in issues pertaining to the Masaa’il of Shariah.

7. Always make effort in propagating my publications so that I may continue reaping the rewards, and my children should spend their entire lives in the service of Deen. And in business, give preference to the selling of books and keep the selling of medication as a secondary business.

8. Bury me in the same town where I pass away.

9. Make a habit of reciting Surah Ikhlaas thrice and passing over (eesaal e sawab) the rewards to my soul, and seeking forgiveness on my behalf.

10. My funeral prayers (Namaz e Janazah) should be lead by Maulana Mazhar Sahab.

11.The Janazah should be buried as soon as possible. The chest should face towards the Qibla in the grave in accordance to Sunnah, and abstain from the custom of exposing my face to the people.

New Book – Huqooq ul Waalidain (Rights of Parents) by Hazrat Wala Db

Recently an old audio lecture of Hazrat Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Sahab Db was published as a book from Khanqah Imdadiya Ashrafiya, Karachi (part of the series of written lectures by Hazrat Walal Db). The book is titled as “Huqooq ul Waalidain” which means “The Rights of Parents” in English.

There have, obviously, been many books published on this topic before, however, Hazrat Wala Db has his own unique way of addressing issues which is filled with the love of Allah SWT and examples from the lives of our pious elders. This is a very beneficial book as it makes us review our conduct with our parents very closely.

The online version of this book is, Alhamdulillah, now available and can be read on the link below. An English translation will also be available, insha Allah, in near future. May Allah SWT help us practice upon the message of this book as well.

Do share it with your friends and family as well, it’ll be your Sadqa e Jaariya insha Allah!
