The Lover is ever drunk with love;
He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.
Caught by our own thoughts,
We worry about every little thing,
But once we get drunk on that love,
Whatever will be, will be.

I agree.
Attar says
'that if you wish to find the ocean of your soul, then die to all your old life and then keep silent'

One thing I’ve found with practising Sufism is that it’s difficult to maintain.
Sometimes when things get so busy you have stuff on your mind…it’s SO hard to keep Dhikr alive in your heart and mind.
It’s hard when things are hectic to just put some time aside every night to contemplate (Muraqaba)….its hard to sometimes scrutinise ones character and actions when there are other things on the mind.
Its missions getting up for Fajr let alone Tahajud and reading Qur’an at a time where the mercy of Allah (swt) descends to the lowest heaven.
This is why it is said that the REAL Sufi is the one who buys, sells, meets others, visits the markets etc but never forgets Allah (swt) for a single second.
Wasalaam
Muslim Sister well of course that is the whole point – the Sufi lives and breathes he participates and is vital to society whilst all the while his heart and soul and mind are dead to the attractions and foibles of this world.
He is integral to society never abandoning it but instead embracing it whilst his inner being is consumed with love for his Beloved.
If you were to ask your innermost self what you desire the most, what consumes you above all else what would the answer be?
If it be the Beloved then all else will fall into place inshallah.
Salaam
That is one very important concept of sufism that I love, is the attempt to have a constant remberance of Allah swt, that and teh constant striving to be closer to Allah swt. I seen people waiting in a long line for something and still doing dhikr, no minute is wasted in the ibadah of allah swt. It doesn't seem like they take anything for granted, which is a trap i fall into, like after Isha i tend to just chill and switch off. I guess it help you not see Islam as a routine as it can at time. I know it something i need to work on personally.

Yeah I've come across such people too.
But on the flip side have you come across those people with a tasbi in their hands and their eyes glued to a soap on the Telly?
using dhikr beads is shirk and biddah, bilal philips sed the sahaba never used them....
What you put in the hearts of others; is what goes back into your own heart…
Yeah i seen them, plus the people who in deep converstaion with someone and still being doing it. I remember hearing Hamza Yusuf saying that there isn't a minute where there isn't a opportunity to remeber Allah swt, but some people to try to apply it in some funny situations.

no freak i dont worship graves, i worship my Lord Allah (swt) alone..
lol Judda r u trying to take up Meds place on the forum now that he's not here (as much)?
seriously tho, shirk and bid'ah is no light matter, not a good idea to be throwing these terms around indiscriminately.
omrow, nowadays Judda's posts make more sense than urs... :roll:

Fine, hypothetically speaking, lets say, The Sahaba RA didn't use the zhikr beads.
How are they shirk? Please explain?
:?
Gentleness and kindness were never a part of anything except that it made it beautiful, and harshness was never a part of anything except that it made it ugly.
Through cheating, stealing, and lying, one may get required results but finally one becomes
[size=9]Whatever you do, know that I will always love you. Or else.[/size]
they r not decreed by god, thus they 'allogerically' represent another god besides which makes them shrik....

how the hell do u know they are not decreed by God?
Did He tell u that u stupid thicko? :roll: :evil:
Judda has already received punishment of a detention today for posting here in defiance of school rules. I urge all Revival members to act in his best interest and support Judda in paying attention to the task in hand.

lol lilsis that made sense
i find it ironic how u call me a "thicko"
they shouldn't be used thats all- Bilal Philips did a lecture on it ages ago... he sed they r not even advocated by the weakest ahadith, at the end of the day its biddah and u shud not be touching them...
100man shutup!
What you put in the hearts of others; is what goes back into your own heart…
So, anything not decreed by even the weakest Hadith should not be touched?
i'm afraid to say this but Bilal philips often loses his mind and says some weird things i've seen it happen live on telly - sorry Judda, though we may not be stable ourselves we should at least take stable and sane teachers for our divine guidance
salaam
its a way of countin how much you have read! bloody hell! Do u have a hundred or thousand fingers?
So anythin that is used as a counter i.e tasbvee is "shirk" :roll:
