salaams this message was sent to me by a bro studying in tarim




Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim

As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,

I pray that this finds you steadfastly travelling the way to and in Allah, and that Allah firmly plants your feet in the maharib of serving the da'wa of Mustafa.

I am writing you to convey the great news and weighty trust that Sayyidi Al-Habib Umar has agreed to give a weekly lesson to those who have taken his hand in the spiritual path in foreign lands and others who wish to attend.

He has set the date for Sunday 28th Rabi al-Awwal [March 14] (the day before Dar al Mustafa's Annual Mawlid) from 11 AM - 12 PM Makka time (+3 GMT).

Personal questions pertaining to one's suluk or the dawa can also be asked via email at; office@habibomar.com. Brief and pertinent questions are more likely to receive a response and if you can type in Arabic (or scan yourself) please do.

We realize this is short-notice, however, the news came somewhat abruptly and while we were on the road. We have also been discussing the best way to conduct the lessons with those who are already involved in e-learning.

Please find attached an invitation to the lesson which we kindly request you to forward to the aforementioned group (i.e. Habib's murids and those who wish to attend); bearing in mind, however, that many of those who have made a bay`a to him feel isolated and long to have more of a connection, and that the live session is likely to reach capacity so perhaps they should receive priority in terms of invitation.

There are likely to be some bumps and potholes on the way, but with Allah’s tawfiq, we are confident that it will be a blessed aid to people’s journeys as well as a source of good for the lands and slaves of Allah.

We love you all for Allah and are in need of your du'as.

At the service of the Mashayikh and Ikhwan,

AbdulKarim




P.S. All recipients of this invite who have not already done so should be receiving an invite to the 'Mutual Connections' egroup - set up to aid communication and mutual assistance among those who have some kind of connection to the Habaa'ib in Tarim - in the next few days. Please respond to the invite to join the group.




Was-salaam,

Asalam Alaykum,

pray that my brothers and sisters are fine InshAllah.

Taking spiritual path with Habib Umar does it mean studying from him? I would appreciate some explanation, I urderstood about living according to the book of assistance and daily awrad but I did not urderstand about taking Bayah what does it mean?

JazakAllahu kher, May Allah (swt) forgive us, guide us,grant us taufiq to do good and grant us good manners, May HE make this site beneficial to all of us and grant us janatul Firdaus(ameen).

Bismillah

taking bay'ah to a Sheikh implies going under his wing for the nurturing of your inner selves and the purification of it to make you a better Muslim.
As this kind of guidance is dealing with the esoteric 'ilm, we need a Sheikh who have travelled the spiritual stations and know the pitfalls of the way.
this is a general statement from what i know, correct me if i'm wrong.

Asalam Alaykum

JazakAllahu Kher for your explanations . Is everyone qualify to join? am still strugling with my weaknesses but am interested to benefit if its possible .

remember us in your prayers.

Bismillah

As-salamu 'alaykum,

What is someone lives far away from his shaykh and there is no easy way of contacting him. How does such a murid get his questions replied? And can the shaykh then benefit the murid from afar - via spiritual connection?

Wa jazakum Allahu khayran.

Sidi Danimarki, please attend the weekly Kibrit al-Ahmar lessons. An excerpt of the invitation is as follows:

Personal questions pertaining to one's suluk or the dawa can also be asked via email at; office@habibomar.com. Brief and pertinent questions are more likely to receive a response and if you can type in Arabic (or scan yourself) please do.

[Danimarki]

As-salamu 'alaykum,

Jazaka Llahu khayran ya sidi. I was there for the lesson this Sunday and it was very good, masha'Allah.

** IMPORTANT UPDATE **

In a previous message forwarded to this list, Br. Abdul-Karim Yahya (of SunniPath and residing in Tarim) was reported to have said:

Personal questions pertaining to one's suluk or the dawa can also be asked via email at; office@habibomar.com. Brief and pertinent questions are more likely to receive a response and if you can type in Arabic (or scan yourself) please do.

Please find attached an invitation to the lesson which we kindly request you to forward to the aforementioned group (i.e. Habib's murids and those who wish to attend); bearing in mind, however, that many of those who have made a bay`a to him feel isolated and long to have more of a connection, and that the live session is likely to reach capacity so perhaps they should receive priority in terms of invitation.

Therefore, I would like to refer all those who forwarded their request to make "bay'ah" with Habib Umar to RESEND their request to the aforementioned email address or to attempt to contact Br. Abdul-Karim Yahya through his personal blog, found here: http://abdulkarimyahya.com/

I am sorry, but I was not able to get in touch with Habib Umar to put your requests in and I am no longer in a position to finalize these requests. Please do make contact through the aforementioned means...

Please remember this poor servant of Allah in your prayers. I sincerely ask Allah to make us all of His sincere, rightly-guided servants... Amin.
