Ayatullah Kamal al-Haydari provides a brief biography of the prominent Muslim philosopher and mystic Sayyid Haydar al-Amuli. Al-Amuli was a comprehensive scholar who wrote on many subjects including, but not limited to, exegesis of the Holy Qur\'an, commentary on philosophical and mystical texts, interpretation of hadith, as well as guides for the wayfarers and seekers of God. Ayatullah Kamal al-Haydari also emphasizes on the fact that the difference of opinion between two individuals or sects should not create hostility between each other. Rather, one must accept the other for who he is and only engage in academic discussions involving mutual respect and honor. --------- إن آية الله السيد كمال الحيدري دام ظله يقدم لمحة وجيزة عن شخصية العارف الإلهي السيد حيدر الآملي قدس سره ويبين أن الاختلاف في الرأي لا يفسد للود قضية، بل يجب علينا أن نترفع ونقبل الآخرين على ما هم عليه. كذا كان علماء الإمامية، فمثلاً، فخر المحققين الحلي لم يكن يعتقد بوحدة الوجود ولكنه كان يمدح السيد حيدر الآملي ويطلب الشفاعة منه في الآخرة رغم أنه يعتقد بنظرية وحدة الوجود التي لا يوافق عليها الحلي

Secret Esoteric Dimensions of Wudhu (Ritual Ablution) | REFLECT Wudhu is a washing process that Muslims perform 5 times a day and it is compulsory to be in the state of wudhu before touching the holy texts or praying. But how often do we contemplate over the hidden, mystical meaning behind the action of Wudhu? Islamic Pulse’s new show, hosted by Shaykh Farukh Sekaleshfar, explores the hidden, esoteric dimensions of the Wudhu. It is a great misconception to assume that the rituals prescribed by Islam are merely physical, but rather, for every outer action, there is an inner, deeper reality. Inshallah, this will be the first of many shows exploring the often neglected hidden realities according to the mystics (urafa) and gnostics, grounded firmly in the Quran and Ahadith.

See the Imam’s (as) outlook ============================== Follow us: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Panahianen/ ... Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/PanahianEN/... Twitter: https://twitter.com/PanahianEN Telegram: https://telegram.me/Panahianen/ ============================== There is a beautiful tradition narrated from a man named Nauf. He said, “I saw Imam Ali (as) turn away from everyone and move away quickly and eagerly.” Have you seen when someone is pursuing something he likes how he moves away from others? He doesn’t say goodbye ten times. He‘s like an arrow that has been shot from a bow! This is a description of how the Imam went away. The man asked him, “Where are you going?” It was midnight when he saw the Commander of the Faithful, Ali (as), leaving! Now see how the Imam said he wanted to go pray the Midnight Prayer and worship. [The Imam said,] “Nauf, leave me. Indeed my longings take me to the presence of my beloved.” O Imam, may I be sacrificed for you. Worshiping to you is going toward your longings, right? May I be sacrificed for you. It’s obvious that this worshiping is fun and enjoyable for you. “I said, ‘My master, what are your longings?’ The Imam said, ‘The One Who should know, the One Whom I long for knows this Himself. I don’t need to tell this to anyone else.’” See how the Commander of the Faithful talked. This is how he was. Nauf said, “O Commander of the Faithful, I’m afraid of my greed...”He saw Imam Ali’s (as) position. He looked at himself and said he’s afraid! Nauf was a good person. He saw Imam Ali’s (as) longings and what was fun to him. So Nauf said he was afraid of his own greed for this world. He saw that he didn’t have that same enthusiasm the Imam had for worshiping. He asked what he should do. The Imam (as) was surprised. The Imam said, “Why don’t you take refuge with He Who protects those who are afraid and is the shelter of the mystics?” Why don’t you get help from God? He gives refuge. If you’re truly afraid, He gives refuge to those who are afraid. Get help from God Himself! He is the shelter of the mystics. You understood you’re not in a good situation? You understood there is a better situation? He is the shelter of the mystics. He gives refuge Himself. Why do you ask the Imam? What a truly high-level conversation. It is very beautiful and mystical. Nauf said, “Guide me to Him.” I don’t know how to read the words of the Commander of the Faithful (as). The Imam said, “He is the Exalted and Great God. Attach your longings to His good grace.” This is how worshiping becomes something fun and enjoyable! See the Commander of the Faithful’s (as) outlook. The Exalted and Great God will take you to your longings. Don’t you want to be like this?! So ask Him. God will take you to your longings. [The Imam said,] “Don’t you want to worship God like me?!” The Imam didn’t say, “like me.” I’m saying it like this. Don’t you want to worship God like the Imam? God will take you to your longings. What is worshiping my dear ones? Worshiping means you talk about your longings with God and He takes you to them. O God, so worshiping is fun and enjoyable.
