THE PATH OF SALVATION

By Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Ibrahim Khushtar Siddiqui Qadri Razvi

INTRODUCTION
This booklet, authored by His Eminence, Qutb-e-Mauritius, Hazrat Allama Maulana Muhammad Ibrahim Khushtar Siddiqui Qadri Razvi (Rahmatullah Alaih), Founder Patron of Sunni Razvi Society International, provides exactly what the title says, The Path of Salvation. It is a concise yet adequate treatise to guide one according to the requirements of Shariah both in terms of Aqeeda (beliefs) as well as Amal (deeds). If one sincerely acts according to the advice given in this treatise, then Insha Allah one would definitely attain the path of salvation. The author, His Eminence, needs no introduction. The spirit of sincerity animating his religious zeal has become a proverbial utterance of all those who have been fortunate enough to understand his mystic mission throughout the world. The words I am Nothing, He is Everything has become a distinguished saying of His Eminence, which resonates in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to be touched by his spiritual fervour. The more he lowered and humbled himself before his Rabb, the more his Rabb elevated his status and his spiritual station. Alhamdulillah, it is indeed a great Nemat (bounty) of Allah Taala for his Mureeds and well -wishers to have sat in the company of such a great personality. Sunni Razvi Society International was a body founded in 1965 by His Eminence to spread the teachings of Islam. The name Sunni Razvi Society was given to him by Ghaus-ul-Waqt Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (Radiallahu Taala Anh), who gave him the responsibility of spreading Maslak-e-Ala Hazrat (Radiallahu Taala Anh) and the true teachings of Islam. In an era where the virus of Wahaabiyat and other deviated sects was eating into the Imaan of Muslims throughout the world, Huzoor Mufti -e-Azam Hind (Radiallahu Taala Anh) sent one of his special Mureeds, a hidden pearl and a guiding light, as a physician to cure the Muslims of this toxic virus. His Eminence then became a roving ambassador of Islam, travelling throughout the world to spread the teachings of Ahle Sunnat Wa Jamaah. Every country that His Eminence visited, it felt as though his footsteps created an oasis of Haqq (truth) in a desert of corruption and falsehood. Apart from spreading the true teachings of Islam, His Eminence has made thousands of Mureeds throughout the world in order to provide a cure for the spiritual sickness that many are suffering with in this era. This in fact is the work of a Kaamil Murshid and it is absolutely essential to give ones hand in the hand of such a Murshid

(Spiritual Guide). By doing so, one forms a spiritual link to our Beloved Master Muhammad Mustafa (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) via a chain of Awliya Allah. One who depends on his own intellect for guidance in spiritual matters is like an unattended tree growing in the jungle, planted and cared for by nobody, but springing up by itself. It will either dry up after a short time or if it survives, it may bear no fruit. These are the words of the great Imam Ghazzali (Radiallahu Taala Anh) from his invaluable book Ihya-ul-Uloom. Hazrat Baayazid Bustaami (Radiallahu Taala Anh) has stated that a person without a Murshid has Shaitaan as his guide. [Awaariful Maaarif] Wherever His Eminence had been he had restored much needed unity amongst the Ahle Sunnat Wa Jamaah. In many countries throughout the world he had carried out his religious and spiritual exercises very diligently, the most soul stirring of which was the Halqa-e-Zikr that used to be conducted by him. One who participated in such a spiritual exercise could not but marvel at the current it produced on the already undernourished spiritual souls of us sinners. Alhamdulillah, his Sajjada Nasheen, Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Masood Azhar Khushtar Siddiqui Qadri Razvi is continuing the work of His Eminence with much enthusiasm and zeal. The Halqa-e-Zikr that he leads bares evidence that he is no doubt walking in the footsteps of his illustrious father, as the current that it produces in ones soul cannot but remind one of His Eminence. May Allah Taala grant him long life and good health to continue the mission of His Eminence, to spread Maslak -e-Ala Hazrat (Radiallahu Taala Anh) and the true teachings of Islam. The rules guiding a good life according to Shariah and Tariqah are stated herein very clearly and forcefully by His Eminence: Each passing breath is a jewel of inestimable worth; each passing day takes us one step closer to the grave. Let us pray that this booklet will help us lead the remaining portions of our lives in harmony within the principles of Islam, Ameen Ya Rabbal Aalameen.

THE PATH OF SALVATION

NOTEWORTHY ADVICE
1. We must stand firm in our belief of Ahle Sunnat Wa Jamaat, the belief of our Saints and our elders. Those who are against spiritual upliftment such as the Wahaabis, Ahmadis (Lahori, Qadiani and others) should be avoided at all cost. Let us not live with them; let us consider them as our enemies. Neither must we listen to them nor sit in their company. Abhor their publications, for the devil is quick to change our hearts and cause confusion. A person will never venture to go to a place where his wealth will be in danger or his honour at stake. Our religion and our faith are dear to us. So, it is incumbent on us to make all possible efforts to protect them. Worldly honour and wealth last only so long as life lasts, while complete faith, on the contrary, lasts for eternity. It is obligatory on every Muslim to safeguard this zealously. 2. Be steadfast in your daily prayers. It is incumbent (Waajib) on men to perform their prayers in congregation in the mosque. A Muslim who does not offer his prayers is but the caricature of a Muslim. He resembles a human being externally but his existence as a man is meaningless. A man is a sinner not only when he does not pray but also when he prays by fits and starts. Whether self-employed, in anothers employment or for some other reason one neglects prayers, he is one who lacks gratitude and is but childish. An employer, be he a Kaafir, has no right to deny his employee the obligation to pray. If an employer refuses his employee time out for prayers, it is Haraam (forbidden) to continue in such employment. Any form of self-employment is devoid of blessing if one does not pray. Is it not Almighty Allah who provides us with our livelihood and is it not He who has made prayer obligatory? 3. Those prayers which have become Qaza (missed by default) should be prayed later on. If the prayers one performs now exceed what has already been missed, then there is no harm done. Whatever prayers have become Qaza should be so arranged to be prayed later, so that none would eventually be left over. Phase them out to facilitate easy redemption. Do not postpone, for death comes suddenly. So long as Fardh (compulsory) prayers are left out, Nafl

(supererogatory) prayers will not be accepted. The prayers we have left out should be offered in the manner mentioned hereunder: If for example, we have 100 Fajr prayers to complete, every time we replace any, we must do so with the intention that we are performing the first Fajr prayer which we have missed. The same conditions apply to Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Esha. While offering the Qaza prayers, we only have to perform the Fardh and Witr, i.e. 20 Rakaats for ever days prayer left unperformed. 4. Observe all the days of fasting which were left undone. This should be done before the approach of Ramadaan. In the Hadith Shareef it is mentioned that our fasts are not taken into account so long as the fasting days of the previous Ramadaan remain unobserved. 5. Wealthy people have to pay their Zakaat. Make a calculation of the amount that has not yet been paid and pay it immediately. Zakaat of each year should be paid before the end of the respective year. If the amount due has been paid before the end of the year, it is well and good. If, after calculation, it is found that there is still some money to be paid, then it should be settled at once. And, in case more than the amount actually due has been distributed, the excess should be deducted from the Zakaat money due for the following year. Our good deeds never pass unnoticed by The Glorious Allah. 6. Hajj is a duty obligatory upon people who can afford the necessary expenditure. No doubts whatsoever should be entertained with regard to the performance of this obligatory function. Having made it compulsory, Allah Almighty has said: But if any is ungrateful (rejects faith), verily Allah is free of all wants, independent. Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has said that people who, in spite of their capacity, do not perform Hajj, they may die a Jew or even a Christian. Do not let the occasion pass in mere reflection. 7. Miserliness, backbiting, discrediting others, prostitution and misappropriation of trust are acts that are abominable. Pride, shaving of the beard or having it trimmed to suite ones taste, fastidious dressing and other undesirable habits stand condemned.
5

Those who avoid these bad habits and follow the good ones will certainly find peace of mind and will, in addition, be loved by Allah Almighty. Allah Taala and His Beloved Rasool (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) have promised Paradise to those who keep steadfast in all these advices. May His mercy spring forth forever, Ameen.

HOW TO PERFORM CERTAIN NAFL SALAAH AND THEIR BENEFITS

SALAAT-UL-ISHRAAQ Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has said, Those who perform the Fajr prayer in congregation (Jamaat), read the Zikr (Remembrance of Allah) till the sun has completely risen (length of a spear from the horizon, after 20 minutes of sunrise) and then read 2 Rakaats Nafl, will receive Thawaab (reward) equal to that of a Hajj and Umrah. It is recommended to read the Surah Fatiha and Aayat-ul-Kursi till Khaalidoon, in the first Rakaat, and in the second Rakaat to read, after Surah Fatiha, Aamanar Rasool till the end of Surah Baqarah. In case that this verse cannot be read from memory, one can recite any other verse and then make Dua. Women should read all prayers of Fardh and Nafl at home and will derive the same benefits (Thawaab) that accrue from prayer performed at the Masjid. [Tirmidhi Shareef] SALAAT-UD-DUHA (CHAASHT) Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has said, For the one that has read the twelve Rakaats of Salaat-ud-Duha, Allah will build for him a golden castle in Paradise, and the one that always reads two Rakaats of Chaasht will have his sins forgiven even though they may be of oceanic dimensions. [Tirmidhi Shareef; Ibn-e-Majah] The prayer of Chaasht consist of a minimum of 2 Rakaats and a maximum of 12 Rakaats. It should be read between the time the sun has completely risen from the horizon and before Zawaal (zenith of the sun). SALAAT-UL-AWWABEEN This Nafl is read after the Fardh and Sunnat of Maghrib. It consists of a minimum of 6 Rakaats. This Nafl procures many benedictions and mercy.

SALAAT-UT- TAHAJJUD Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has said, In Paradise there is a castle reserved for those who read Tahajjud, and Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) further adds, Those who pray at night will enter Paradise without having to account for their deeds in this life. Salaat-ut-Tahajjud is read after the Esha Salaah, but it is important to sleep before performing Tahajjud. The prayer of Tahajjud consists of a minimum of 2 Rakaats, and a maximum of 8 or 12 Rakaats (to be read according to ones capacity). SALAAT-UT-TASBEEH Our Beloved Rasool (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has taught this Nafl to his uncle, Hazrat Sayyiduna Abbas (Radiallahu Taala Anh) and had told him, He who performs this prayer will have his past and future sins forgiven. Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has recommended to read this prayer daily on each Friday or once a month or once a year or, in case of this not being possible, to read it even once in ones life. This Nafl prayer provides limitless benefits both in the material and spiritual life. How to Perform This Nafl After having pronounced ones intention (Niyat), say Allahu Akbar, read Subhaanak Allahumma (Sana) completely, and then recite 15 times:

Subhaanallahi Wal Hamdu Lillaahi Wala Ilaaha Illallaahu Wallaahu Akbar Then read Aoozubillah and Bismillah (completely), Surah Fatiha and a Surah. Then recite 10 times the Tasbeeh mentioned above and go into Ruku. After reciting Subhaana Rabial Azeem recite the Tasbeeh 10 times before raising yourself from Ruku. After reciting Rabbana Lakal Hamd after Ruku, recite the Tasbeeh another 10 times in the standing position. Then go into prostration (Sajdah) and after Subhaana Rabial Ala recite the Tasbeeh 10 times. Then in the sitting position (Jalsa) recite 10 times the Tasbeeh and go into prostration again and recite another 10 times. In the second Rakaat begin by reading 15 times this Tasbeeh before reciting Bismillah. After that proceed as in the first Rakaat explained above and complete all 4 Rakaats. In the second Rakaat, read as usual Attahiyaat, Durood Ibrahim and Duas
7

and without saying Salaam complete the remaining two Rakaats. As in each Rakaat the Tasbeeh is recited 75 times, it means that in all four Rakaats the Tasbeeh is read 300 times. Note that there is no fixed time prescribed for this prayer, which means that besides any prohibited time this prayer can be read at any time. SALAAT-UL-HAAJAT In case of difficulty, illness or of authorized necessity this prayer is read. Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has taught this to a blind person who, as soon as he had performed it, regained his eyesight [Tirmidhi Shareef; Tibraani]. To perform this prayer it is recommended to wear ones best and clean clothes and to perform well ones ablution (wudhu). Then recite 2 Rakaats of Nafl in the usual way and after Salaam recite the following Dua:

Allahumma Inni As Aluka Wa Atawajjahu Ilaika Nabiyyika Muhammadin Nabiyyir Rahmati Ya Muhammadu Inni Atawajjahu Bika Ila Rabbi Fi Haajati Haazihi Li Taqdiya Li Allahumma Fashaffihu Fiyya Translation: Oh Allah, verily I implore You and towards You I use the intermediary of Nabi-e-Rahmat, Muhammad Mustafa (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). O Muhammad, verily I turn through your intercession to our Creator for my needs so that my needs may be fulfilled. O Allah, grant the intercession of Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) in my favour.

IRAADAT (FAITH IN ONES SPIRITUAL GUIDE)

Many religious mendicants (Faqeers) were sitting at a place. One of them asked his friends, Brothers, describe to me what is obedience to ones Spiritual Guide. How can a disciple reach the state of a true disciple? One of them answered, In every matter you abandon your own intention, and accept the intention of your Spiritual Guide. The second said, You must not think that you will have troubles in following your Spiritual Guide. The third one said, In following the path of your Spiritual Guide, you must be prepared for any sacrifice at any time, and you must not shirk from any order issued by your Spiritual Guide. The fourth said, You must abide by his desires, and putting aside all your wishes, you must not get into misery by doing things he does not like.
8

Hazrat Sahl Bin Abdullah Tustari (Radiallahu Taala Anh) was also present in the gathering and said, These answers are not correct. The truth of Iraadat is that you must feel at ease amidst the difficulties of his trial (i.e. the Spiritual Guides Trial).

THE FIVE QADRI TREASURES (PANJ GANJ QADRIA)

After Fajr: After Zuhr: After Asr:

Ya Azeezu Ya Allah Ya Kareemu Ya Allah

Ya Jabbaaru Ya Allah

After Maghrib: After Esha:

Ya Ghaffaaru Ya Allah

Ya Sattaaru Ya Allah

Every one of the above 5 treasures is to be recited 100 times beginning and ending with 3 Durood Shareef on Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). In the same way, if the following is recited after Fajr prayer, before sunrise and after the Maghrib prayer, all difficulties would be solved and our enemies kept at bay:

Hasbiyallaahu Laa Illaaha Illaahu Alaihi Tawakkaltu Wahuwa Rabbul Arshil Azeem. Rabbi Anni Massaniyad Durru Wa Anta Arhamur Raahimeen (10 times).

Rabbi Anni Maghloobun Fantasir (10 times).

Sayuhzamul Jamu Wa Yuwalloo Nad Dubur (10 times).

Allahumma Inna Najaluka Fee Nuhoorihim Wana Oozubika Min Shuroorihim (10 times).

Recite Durood Shareef 3 times before and after the above set of Wazeefas and recite each Wazeefa 10 times.

TO OBTAIN OUR NECESSITIES, BE SUCCESSFUL & OVERCOME OUR ENEMIES

In case you are overburdened with worries or in the event of your having a specific good intention, recite the following with 11 Durood Shareef at the beginning and at the end, facing the Qiblah:

Allahu Rabbi Laa Shareeka Lahu (Exactly 874 times) This should be done every day until you obtain what you are asking for. Subsequently, the same thing can be recited innumerable number of times, under all circumstances, in any posture and with or without ablution (Wuzu). The following is to be recited 450 times every day until your intention is fulfilled. It must be coupled with 11 Durood Shareef at the beginning and at the end. The same thing can be recited at all times whenever one is scared, or is faced with worries or disappointment.

(450 times)

Hasbunallahu Wa Nimal Wakeel

The following is to be recited 111 times after Esha Salaah, accompanied at the beginning and at the end by 11 Durood Shareef.

Tufail Hazrat Dastageer Dushman Huwe Zeyr (111 times) (With the Grace and assistance of Qutbul Aqtaab Ash-Shaikh Muhiyuddin Abdul Qadir Jilani, Qaddasallahu Sirrahul Azeez, may my enemies be restrained and humbled.) But the 3 Wazeefas above are very effective and can be recited at all times. If you have a particular intention and you undertake this recital, do not neglect or break the sequence until your intentions have been fulfilled.
10

However, as regards the first two, there is no fixed time to recite them. They can be recited at any time, i.e. whenever you have a need or desire and without any particular adherence to time. The third Wazeefa however, must be recited only after Esha prayers. If the need or desire for which these invocations were started is not fulfilled you must continue with the above 3 Wazeefas until success is achieved. In case you do not have any particular desire or need, then the first and second only may be recited 100 times daily coupled with 3 Durood Shareef before and after the recital.

THE PRINCIPLES OF ZIKR JEHR (Zikr recited aloud)

The following should be recited before ZIKR JEHR and the benediction showered or blown (damm) upon oneself: Durood Shareef- 10 times Istighfaar- 10 times

Fazkurooni Azkurkum wash Kurooli walaa Takfuroon 3 times, then begin ZIKR JEHR.

Laa ilaaha illallah 200 times Illallah 400 times

Allahu 600 times This ZIKR comprises 12 complete rosaries (Tasbeeh). Next say:

Haq, Haq 100 times

ZIKR NAFI WA ISBAAT - Begin and end with 3 times Durood Shareef:

Allahu. Allahu 600 times Illallah 400 times

Laa ilaaha illallah 200 times

11

COMPLETE RECITAL OF THE HOLY QURAN

The Holy Saints of Islam say the Quran Shareef should be recited every day as much as is practicable. However, it is recommended that you recite in the following manner, by the Grace of Allah you will thus very shortly be crowned with success: Start on Friday and finish the following Thursday in this manner: ON FRIDAY: Surah Fatiha up to the end of Surah Maa-ida ON SATURDAY: From Surah Anaam up to the end of Surah Taubah ON SUNDAY: From Surah Yunus up to the end of Surah Maryam ON MONDAY: From Surah Thaahaa up to the end of Surah Qasas ON TUESDAY: From Surah Ankaboot up to the end of Surah Saade ON WEDNESDAY: From Surah Zumar up to the end of Surah Ar Rahmaan ON THURSDAY: From Surah Waaqia up to the end i.e. Surah An Naas. The recital is to be done in privacy and the reciter must not indulge in conversation during the recital.

MERITS IN RECITING DUROOD SHAREEF

The merits that accrue to one who recites Durood Shareef are numerous and they are mentioned in countless traditions. But only one of them is being related here from which we can get an idea of the merits we derive in this world and hereafter. Hazrat Obay Ibn Kab (Radiallahu Taala Anh) said that he went to see the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) and told him that he wanted to send Durood Shareef as many times as possible on Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). He asked how much time he should allocate for that. Thereupon, Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) replied that it was at his discretion but if he could give some time to it that would be better for him. Then Hazrat Obay Ibn Kab (Radiallahu Taala Anh) said, I shall devote half of my time to it. Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) replied, As you like, but if you can do more, it would be better for you. To this Hazrat Obay Ibn Kab (Radiallahu Taala Anh) replied, I shall devote two third of my time to the recital of Durood Shareef.

12

The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) answered, It is up to you but if you can do more that would be better for you. Then Hazrat Obay Ibn Kab (Radiallahu Taala Anh) said, I shall devote the whole of my time for the recitation of Durood Shareef. To this Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) replied, If you do this, all your desires, be they spiritual or material will be realized and all your sins (physical or moral) will be expiated. Note: A lover in Tareeqah has the discretion to perform his Wazeefa at a fixed time or simply to recite Durood Shareef, Kalima Tayyibah, Quran Shareef or to meditate on his Spiritual Guide. By the Grace of Allah Taala he will derive tremendous benefits. The devil reclines in the heart of the son of Adam (Alaihis Salaam). When he remembers Allah the devil retracts; and when he is heedless the devil whispers evil.

THINGS TO REMEMBER
O brother! Bear in mind the fact that at the time of your birth everybody was rejoicing while you were lamenting. Live such a life that when you die everybody weeps on your departure from this worldly life while you are smiling. If you always wholeheartedly think of your Creator with devotion and with enthusiastic zeal, then, as a matter of fact, when you are on the point of leaving this life, you will remember your Lord and your heart will be illuminated with the light of Almighty Allah. Oh brother! Remember the promise you made to Allah Almighty on giving your hand in the hand of this humble creature of Allah Almighty. In addition, pray for this humble servant too so that he may lead his life in accordance with the Islamic law and that he may die in the state of being a true believer. Oh brother! You have given your word that you will stand firm in the beliefs of our Saints and of our elders and that you will protect yourself against bad teachings and detrimental principles. Never fail to keep your promise. Remember also this saying of our Creator, Do not die ever save as Muslims. [Surah 3, Verse 102] Oh brother! Remember that you have promised to offer your prayers, to observe your fasts and to perform all the Divine commands in their proper time; and that you will avoid sins. May Allah Almighty help you to keep your promise because it is a grievous fault to make a promise even though it was made to a most humble creature. Havent you made this promise to Almighty Allah?
13

Oh brother! Always remember your death. If you constantly bring to your mind the fact that you would die one day, you will, by the grace of Allah Almighty abstain from bad deeds and your faith will be safe. Oh brother! Keep awake today so that you may enjoy a peaceful rest after your death ]and so that the angels may tell you, Sleep like the newly -wed. [Mishkaat Shareef Keep awake underneath the sky, for you will sleep till doomsday in the lap of the earth. Dont enslave yourself with this world because this will make you forget Almighty Allah.

WAZEEFAS TO BE READ AFTER THE 5 SALAAH

1. Recite Ayatul Kursi once after each Salaah and Insha Allah as soon as you die you will enter Jannat. 2. Recite 3 times:

Astaghfirullahallazi La Ilaaha Illa Huwal Hayyul Qayyoom Wa Atoobu Ilaih Your sins will be forgiven even if they are equivalent to the foam in the oceans. 3. Tasbeeh Hazrat Sayyidatuna Fatima Zahra (Radiallahu Taala Anha). Recite:

On the day that this is recited no ones deeds will be equivalent in reward except for those who read the same. 4. Keep your right hand on your forehead and recite,

Bismillahil Lazi La Ilaaha Illa Huwar Rahmanur Raheem. Allahumma Az Hib Annil Hamma Wal Huzna Insha Allah you will be saved from every grief and calamity. Ala Hazrat (Radiallahu Taala Anh) added the following to this Dua:

- Wa An Ahlis Sunnah

5. Panj Ganj Qadria The blessings of these is countless.

SAYINGS OF HUZOOR GHAUS-E-AZAM (Radiallahu Taala Anh)

Meditate on Allah publicly and privately. Keep Him within your sight in such a way as if you are beholding Him; He does certainly see you. He, who thinks of Allah from the core of his heart, is indeed (Zaakir) devotee of Allah; and he who does not is not. The tongue is the servant of and the follower of the heart. Listen always to preachings (Waiz) because the heart separated from preachings becomes blind. This booklet is issued under the distinguished Patronage of His Eminence Hazrat Allama Maulana Muhammad Ibrahim Khushtar Siddiqui Qadri Razvi (Rahmatullah Alaih). May we always be under his shadow and protection and may Allah Taala grant us the Taufeeq to follow his advice and teachings, Ameen.
