Shaykh Nur's meditation on al-Fatiha...

 

"Lex Hixon: Islamic (Sufi) Meditation" (Watch on YouTube)

May we live simply by the reliance on the power of the Holy Name of Allah.  Who Is Complete Love, Overflowing with Compassion and Grace.  May our spontaneous praise and gratitude be directed to Allah Alone, the Ultimate Source of the unfolding of all worlds, Allah Who Is Complete Love, Overflowing with Compassion and Grace and Who Is Master of the spiritual discipline of all beings, bringing them all to their time of Truth. Only to You, O Allah, do we offer the full commitment of our lives and from Your Infinite Power alone do we seek the strength that we need.  Lead us not along the circuitous path of those who are wondering away from their Source, but lead us along the direct path of the Highest Illumination, the Path of Return traveled by those saints and sages who have been blessed by awakening fully into Your Holy Presence. Ya Allah.  Ya Allah.  Ya Allah.

Shahada - with al dhat al sifat

 La ilaha ill Allah Nur Muhammad ar-Nur Rasullullah
There is no reality, but Divine Reality; Nur Muhammad is the Prophetic Light

La ilaha ill Allah Fatimah wajh Allah
There is no God but the Godhead, Fatimah is the Face of the Godhead.

(first refers to the non-personal Ultimate Reality, second refers to the personal Divine Beloved)

Ishq Allah Mabud Allah

A True Muslim - a talk with Sheikh Muzaffer on In the Spirit

(quoted from talk.................)

 

 A Buddhist who would believe in Allah and the Day of Judgment and the Prophets...a Buddhist is welcome in the Muslim community as well as anyone else....even a pagan, a star worshiper...even a pagan, a fire worshiper, someone who worships the star, anyone who follows any religion can be a Muslim on the condition that he or she believes in Allah, his Prophets, the Day of Judgment and, in addition to that, if he performs good deeds, he is bound to enter paradise.  There are no other requirements.  This has been so since the very beginning and this will be so til the Day of Judgment and those who speak against Islam are those who don't actually know what Islam is.  

Mankind are brothers from Adam on and from Abraham on.  They've forgotten they are brothers because of different understandings of the religion.  

As we've said, who were actually brothers and sisters have been separated from each other because of different understandings and interpretations of the religion and the reason for the descent of the Holy Quran and the mission of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, pbuh, is to unify all people, all creeds and erase, all differences, all major differences, in interpretation of the religion. Mankind are descendants of Adam, and they were divided into tribes, clans, nations, but Islam teaches us all that there are no basic differences between any people, between any groups of people, all equal, equal to each other.  Any superiority that can exist is in the form of being closer to Allah, obeying him.  In any other sense, there is no distinction, no superiority so to speak.

(Sheikh Muzaffer speaks of all sins being forgivable but worshiping partners with Allah & its important to note how Allah and Ma Kali were the same Divine One to Shaykh Nur/Lex Hixon).
