Question
Our Hazrat Shaikh in England is instructing his mureeds to recite throughout the night the wazeefah: "Ya Muhammad! Ya Mansoor! Ummatak! Ummatak!" I am uneasy about this ta'leem. Please explain in the light of the Shariah? What should we, the mureeds of this Shaikh do?
Answer
The 'hazrats' of this era are experts in the art of bid'ah. They are hard on the heels of the Barelwi bid'atis in the pursuit of the science of bid'ah They labour under the impression that they have the knowledge and spirituality to set aside the Shariah which the Fuqaha have formulated since the era of Khairul Quroon. The 'thikr' which the hazrat advises is bid'ah and not permissible. It is shirk. Shaitaan is an extremely cunning ustaadh. He approaches under 'deeni' hues to destroy the ulama, sheikhs and the hazrats.
