SubhanAllah what a beautiful bayan, our Hadhrat Saab has done a lot more than what was asked by his Sheikh. In this day and age, no Sheikh holds dhikr Majlis twice a day even when Hadhrat Saab is not well.
Another amazing thing is how how Hadhrat Saab adopted technology which makes me believe all these phones and internet were made for Dhikr of Allah SWT. Hadhrat Saab is the Mujadid of this time.
May Allah SWT give Hadhrat Saab good health and very long life, Ameen summa Ameen

Advice of a Naqshbandi Sheikh to his Mureed
Dhikr is a means granted to us by Allah ta'ala through which we may become close to Him.
Unfortunately, we remain at loss through the distraction of this world and we are ignorant of His remembrance. We become complacent with our little worship.
In reality, the preparation for the Hereafter is not achieved through a small amount of deeds. We are required to work hard in this world in order to prepare for our Hereafter.
Allah ta'ala enables the students to connect themselves to a Sheikh for His sake. A true waliAllah makes it compulsory upon himself to fulfil the right of this connection. He fulfils his duty as a teacher and that is to help build the students Hereafter.
This is a great path of mercy and blessings which the student should understand. It is a massive treasure through which the student prepares for his Hereafter through the teachings of his Sheikh. The wise student embraces the words of the teacher and improves his life in this world by travelling towards the Hereafter. Those who believe that this connection is just a tradition, they remain lost in this world and do not take benefit for their Hereafter from their teachers company.
Every teacher desires that each of his student becomes successful in the Hereafter. Allah ta'ala has placed impact and power in the words and actions of the Sheikh. The true students allows these words to impact them and they are improved by it. They begin living their lives according to their Sheikh's guidance and through this, they gain success.
After adopting this path of deen, it is unfortunate that we still harbour the love for the world. We should make an effort to pray on time and not abandon the congregation.
The first advice which my Sheikh gave me to me after migrating, was to perform dhikr myself and to teach it to others and to perform it in a gathering. This was his instruction given to me which he was divinely inspired by. He sent me to this country to improve the people as we live in a very dangerous environment.
Through the Tazkiyah sheets, one receives many blessings. Every student should present his sheets no matter what his circumstances are. They should complete them and send them to their teacher.
It is unfortunate that we leave our home countries to live in this county. When we arrive here, we compromise our deen and we chase after the world. We believe that we were born to acquire wealth. We should not waste time and chase the world.
My Sheikh taught me the work of the Prophets. He instructed me to teach the method of Tasbih dhikr to my students which is a great tool. He advised me to perform dhikr in abundance with my students.
I try my best to fulfil this instruction. Thus, whenever I invite you, you should attend the dhikr gathering as this was the advice given by my Sheikh.
Thereafter, my Sheikh advised me to live my entire life according to the Sunnah and the Shariah, internally and externally. This is the preparation for the Hereafter which my Sheikh invited us all towards.
When a person commits unlawful actions like lying and fraud, the unlawful actions gradually multiply. Thereafter, a person's leads a complete unlawful lifestyle and in such a way, he will be cursed and wretched in this world.
We must perfect our inner selves by improving our character. We should be free from jealousy, pride and ostentation. Our actions must be performed solely for the sake of Allah ta'ala.
I was instructed to give the right coaching to my students. Thus, my true student is he who improves his internal and external state according to the Sunnah.
If a fight breaks out, he should display patience and avoid taking revenge. He should display peace at home and he should forgive others.
We must continue presenting our affairs to our Sheikh through the sheets system so that we are not lead astray. Through this method, the students remain disciplined by the teacher.
The greatest work is to maintain the connection with the teacher. We must communicate with our teacher. This is how one becomes successful through the guidance of his teacher.
The more we display belief, love and connection with the teacher, the more blessings will increase for us. We must demonstrate our love for our Sheikh through making sacrifices for him with our time, wealth and our life.
Once we have found a teacher, we must have complete faith in him and not seek guidance elsewhere. With love, belief and service, a student gains blessings. If we do not hold this connection with our teacher, we will be deprived of these blessings.
The next advice given by my Sheikh is to protect ourselves from the false scholars and shuyookh. We should not sit in their company no matter how many others run after them. Such false scholars lie and commit wrongdoing. We should also save ourselves from bad society and bad company.
If we wish to increase our love for our teacher, we must continue writing to them. We should continue doing this to increase our love.
If we practice upon these points, we will attain high ranks in the Hereafter. We must persevere through the difficulties of this world and crush our desires.
Another amazing thing is how how Hadhrat Saab adopted technology which makes me believe all these phones and internet were made for Dhikr of Allah SWT. Hadhrat Saab is the Mujadid of this time.
May Allah SWT give Hadhrat Saab good health and very long life, Ameen summa Ameen
