:: Purification Gem No. 12: How to Be in the Presence of Murtada 'Ali (a.s.)? ::

Thursday, Apr. 10, 2025

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

Ya Ali Madad and Ramadan Mubarak! This post for the auspicious twelfth night of Holy Ramadan has five parts:

  1. A gem of knowledge from Pir Pandiyat-i Jawanmardi, or "Advices of Manliness" of Imam NOOR Mowlana Shah Mustansir bi'l-laah II;
  2. Two verses from the beautiful ginan of Pir Shams (r.a.);
  3. Luminous dhikr of Ya Ali, Ya Karim;
  4. Angelic salwat which is the anchor tasbi for the project; and
  5. Ardent Global Prayers

 

Part 1: Teaching of Imam NOOR Mowlana Shah Mustansir bi'l-laah II (a.s.)
In Pir Pandiyat-i Jawanmardi, Imam NOOR Mowlana Shah Mustansir bi'l-laah II (a.s.) teaches us another way through which we can occupy a place near the throne of the Lord:

"The (real) believer is one who is always patient, pious, sincere and truthful, clean in his beliefs, and modest, whose heart is full of the fear of God, who is free from wrath and hatred, and is pure. In his every action he sees his Lord (Khudawand) present before him, always remembering God. Every slave of God who acts in this way will receive in this world splendour and affluence, and in the hereafter he will be in Paradise, in the presence of his Lord (Mawla-y-i khud), Murtada 'Ali." (p.7)

 

Part 2: Teaching of Pir Shams (r.a.)
In the ginan, Haq tu(n) Paak tu(n), Pir Shams (r.a.) has described the attributes of the Light of Eternal Ali as follows:

Verses 1 & 2 recited by Shafiq Rawji

Hak tu(n) paak tu(n) baadshah
Maherbaan bhi Ali tu(n)hi tu(n)		  
You are the eternal truth, and You are the holiest divine being.
To You belong the dominion of the heavens and the earth.
Most gracious also are You,
O Ali, You and none else but You. 		1
Rab tu(n) Rahemaan tu(n)
Ali awwal aakhar kaazi tu(n)hi tu(n)		  
You are the sustainer of all beings, and most merciful are You.
The beginning of all things is from You,
and the end of everything is unto You.
O Ali, You and none else but You. 		2
