خطبة الشيخ بعد مضي ثلثين من رمضان.

THE KHUTBA OF SHEIKH IBRAHIM NIASSE AFTER THE TWO – THIRD [TWENTIETH DAYS] OF RAMADAN.

الحمدلله رب العالمين ،نحمدالله مضي ثلثان من رمضان ،وبقي ثلث ،وهذا الثلث الذي بقي كثرت الروايات في أن فيه ليلة القدر وليلة القدر خير من ألف شهر ،ومن قام ليلة القدر غفرله ماتقدم من ذنبه وماتأخر ،وأفضل مايقال فيها (اللهم إنك عفو تحب العفو فأعف عني وفي حديث البخاري(التمسوها في العشر الأواخر من رمضان في تاسعة تبقي وفي سابعة تبقي ، وفي خامسة تبقي)

All adoration is due to Allah the Lord of the universe, we thank Almighty Allah, the two – third of Ramadan has passed on, it is left with the last third, this last third, there are lots of Revelation about it, that in it, there is a night of Majesty [Lailatul Qadr]. This night of Majesty is better than a thousand years (of worship), whosoever stand up in this night, all his sins, including the past, the present and the future shall be forgiven. And the best supplication we say in it is that ” Oh Allah! You are the One that overlooks mistakes, you Love to overlook mistakes, overlook my mistakes “. In the authorization of Buhari [The prophet Pbuh said: ] ” Chant this supplication in the last week of Ramadan, the ninth day left, or the seventh day left or the five days left “.

وقال بعض العارفين إنها لاتكون إلا ليلة جمعة وإذا وافقت ليلة الجمعة.إحدي وعشرين أوثلاثا وعشرين ،أوخمسا وعشرين تقوي المظنة أنها ليلة القدر ،فإذا يمكن أن تكون هذه الليلة ليلة القدر .

Some Gnostics said: ” It can’t be except the night of Jummat, therefore if the night of Jummat is equivalent to the 21th of Ramadan or 23rd of Ramadan or 25th of Ramadan, that night is strongly to be the night of Majesty.

ونحمد الله الذي جعل شهره ،شهر نزول القرآن وشهر ليلة القدر واحد والحمد لله الذي هداكم لقطع المسافات البعيدة لتصومو امعنا.

We thank Almighty Allah who made His month, the month of descendant of the Holy Quran and t month of the night of Majesty the same month. And all gratitude is due to Allah who guided you all to pass through this long journey so as to observe fasting with us.

إن بعض أرباب الهمم العالية كان يصوم مع شيخه قال (أبو يزيد البسطامي)كلاما كان ينكره عليه أهل القصور، لأنه كان له مريد وفتح عليه ،فجلس عنه وقال:إني رأيت الله ولا حاجة لي في أبي يزيد البسطامي ،فقال أبو يزيد لأن يراني مرة واحدة خير من أن يري الله ألف مرة ،فالتجليات متباينة ،فالله يتجلي في كل شيئ ،ولكن تجلياته في كامل العصر ليست كتجليه في بقرة أوشجرة أوغير ذالك.

Among some part of the righteous elite, one who is fasting with his Sheikh, he said ” Abu Yazeed Bustami said somethings of which those who lack Divine Knowledge [ a Knowledge that emerge directly from the The Real SWT] will oppose it because he had a Mureed who received Divine Opening and he sat beside him and he said: ” I have seen Allah, therefore, I have nothing in connection with Abu Yazeed Bustami! Abu Yazeed Bustami said: For him to see Me Once is better than him seeing Allah a thousand times this is because the manifestation of Allah [in all living creatures] differs from one another, Allah has manifested Himself [so as to be seen directly] in everything but His manifestation in The Most Perfect Being of The Era [Kaamilu li Asr] is not like His manifestation in cows, in trees and so on.

ومن صام رمضان في أي محل فقد صام رمضان ،ومن صام مع أي أحد فكذلك إلا أن من صامه مع كامل العصر ليس كغيره.

Therefore, whosoever fasted Ramadan in any place, indeed, he has fasted Ramadan and whosoever fasted with anyone, same goes to him except one who fasted with the Most Perfect Being [Kaamilu li Asr], there is no one like him.

فأحمدوا الله الذي وفقكم للحضور معنا في صوم هذا الشهر ،فإذا تقولون معي جميعا :الحمدلله الذي وفقنا لصوم رمضان هنا.

You should all give Gratitude to Allah who bestowed you the grace of fasting Ramadan with us, therefore, you should say after me: ” All Gratitude is due to Allah who gave us the grace of witnessing Ramadan in this land [Medinat Kaolack with Sheikh Ibrahim Niasse]

فالسجود لله، والسجود للصنم صورتهما واحدة ،ولكن النية مدار كل شيئ ،فالسجود للصنم كفر ،والسجود لله عبادة ،وصورتهما واحدة لافرق بينهما إلا بالنية.

Bowling for Allah and bowling for gods, the two images are One, but the intention is the reason for everything, bowling for gods is disbelief and bowling for Allah is worship but the two images are One, there is no difference between them except with intention.

(ومن كانت هجرته إلي الله ورسوله فهجرته إلي الله ورسوله ومن كانت هجرته إلي دنيا يصيبها أو امرأة ينكحها فهجرته إلي ما هاجر إليه ).

” Whosoever made his deeds for the sake of Allah and His messenger, his deeds shall be for Allah and His messenger and whosoever made his deeds for the sake of this world, he shall reap it or be it because of women, his deeds shall be on the intention it based on “.

والله يقبل سعيكم وترجعون سالمين غانمين محفوظين بجميع مطالبكم.

May Almighty Allah accept your deeds, may you leave [to your destination] safety, with abundant wealth and with the grant of every of your needs.

والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله تعالي وبركاته.

May peace be upon you, the Blessing of Allah and His Mercy
