Hazrat Sheikh is saying;

Though my father and the other elders used to say that “you go and sleep” haha, even at the moment when you are not sleepy haha.

This cannot be applied in your case haha. That is something else and this is something else.

But one day such.

Allah Huma Salay Alaa Sayyadina……………..

Allah Huma Salay Alaa Sayyadina Muhammadin wa aaly Sayyidina…………..

You should sit in zikr for a few minutes.

You also make, because they are very necessary, and you already know, everyone already knows, it is nothing new. But that, I may also get some sawaab, so that I tell you a little more, that Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala has said in the Holy Quran that “Fazkuruni Azkurkum”, “you make My zikr and I will make your zikr”. Zikr means yaad, remembrance, “you remember Me and I will also remember you”.

But in many places in Quran, you must have read that wherever He has said that you should make zikr, He said that you should make the zikr more and more. “Fazkurullah zikran kaseera”, Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala says that “you make My zikr more and more”. And what would be that more that Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala says “more”? how much would that be? Hazrat tush Sheikh Razi Allahu Ta’aala Anhu, according to our Tareeqa Naqshbandiya, used to say that at least one should make the zikr twenty five thousands a day. Twenty five thousand because these breaths, this breath that comes out of our breast, is in twenty four hours, twenty four thousands, twenty four thousands, so therefore at least the zikr should be made twenty five thousands upon tasbeeh so that every breath of us may go with zikr. And then Hazrat tush Sheikh Razi Allahu Ta’aala Anhu used to say that this is the least thing, otherwise it should be done fifty thousand a day. And there are people who love zikr and wish to do zikr, they do one lac and twenty five thousand a day.

???????????????? 3:58

And when this heart begins to beat, it goes on, makes zikr at the speed of, not one lac but lacs. And we have, non of us has experienced that, even once in the life, once in the life because this little zikr that we make, a few minutes, this also makes us tired.

So, what I mean to say, that the more you make the zikr, the more we make the zikr, it would be carrying out, carrying out the orders of Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala. He said “Fazkurullah zikran kaseera la’alakum tuflihoon”, you may get salvation, if you make zikr more and more. You’d get salvation.

And at a third place Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala says that how you should make zikr? “Wazkur Isma Rabbika wa tabatal ilayhi tabteela”, “you make the zikr of My name”, “Wazkur Isma Rabbik”, “in a way that you cut off all your connections with the whole world, in your heart there should not be any other thought but My zikr”. Not that you should go on making zikr also, and at the same time remembering the whole world.

Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala says, “Wazkur Isma Rabbika”, you make My zikr, “wa tabatal ilayhi tabteela”, in a way that you cut off all your connections, to the whole world. Followed?

This is, these are the orders of Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala in Holy Quran. But with all that I tell you, that, giving of Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala does not depend upon the zikr. He gives with His kindness. Especially the light, which is real light of Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala, is being given with His kindness only. With zikr also you get light, with the zikr you get light, you get purification of Heart, and you get so many things that would put you in wonder. But Allah Subhana Hu Ta’aala, when He gives His Wilayat to anybody, it is His own kindness.
