Hazrat Hakeem Mahmood Ajmeri (db) Sri Lanka Tour

[London786]

Hazrat ajmeri db told me that the quraan is an ocean. He emphasises a connection to the quraan. He stresses that people should read quraan with translation and literally dive into the ocean of the quraan. He says that most of our problems relate to losing a connection with the quraan

Hazrat Ajmeri db is not fond of karamats (miracles). He stays silent with regards to these issues. He said those that base their whole life on dreams live in a mirage. He does not deny dreams but says the actual thing is one's practical life. He said the biggest miracle is not to commit a sin for 24 hours.

jazaaka-allah brother

How are you brother? You should update us on what Hazrat Ajmeri db said about his safar in Sri Lanka. Hazrat Ajmeri db managed to maintain his composure all the way to the airport. At the departure lounge he could not hold it and burst out in tears. He said we looked after him better than we would look after a Mother and Father

He also said it is upto the hosts to invite a guest to come again to their house. But he said he will break the rules and tell us to invite him again and again

[ahlezikr]

I will insha Allah update bit by bit. I am trying to be as detailed as I can. Please forgive me for errors.

Hazrat Ajmeri (db) arrived on Monday the 4th at 10.30pm. Me, 2 brothers and 2 Alims went to pick him up. We were running late. One of the Alims, a khalifa of Maulana Ismail (db) said, insha Allah when we reach the terminal, Hazrat Ajmeri (db) will be walking out right in front of us. Amazingly, this is exactly what happened. I recognized Hazrat Ajmeri (db) immediately and ran towards him. Hazrat Ajmeri (db) hugged and talked to me but his mind was elsewhere. He took me to a girl who had come on the flight with him and introduced me to her. She was Hindu, working in Nepal.

The girl was very happy. She said something like: "Take him places, treat him well, feed him well, his speeches are great, look after him properly". Hazrat Ajmeri (db) said that the girl helped him out a lot. Maybe at Immigration and with Baggage.

The story behind this was that when Hazrat Ajmeri (db) got on the plane, all the air hostesses started paying their respects to him. They gave him 3 seats so that he will not be disturbed, switched off the TV in front of him and didnt even bring the wine close to him. They told him, "You have blessed our flight by coming aboard. You are very pious". Hazrat Ajmeri (db) spoke to them and told them he does not need 3 seats and is not pious.

So this girl was sitting next to him on the flight and was watching him make Zikr. Below is a rough outline of what Hazrat Ajmeri (db) told me:

Girl: What are you doing?
Hazrat (db): I am making Zikr
Girl: What are you repeating
Hazrat (db): Allah Allah Allah Allah
Girl: Why are you calling Him so much and why just "Allah" why dont you call other Gods too
Hazrat (db): He is the One who created me and is sustaining me, I need to call on him always. In Islam there is only one God (and Hazrat db went on to explain it to her)
Girl: I want to ask you something
Hazrat (db): Yes?
Girl: Why have you not looked at me? All the males here are looking at me, you still have not looked at me
Hazrat (db): (explained about na-mahrams etc)

The girl was impressed and gave Hazrat (db) her number and email. We left the airport and went to Maulana Ismail (db)'s house and ate a little there and then went to Maulana Naufal (db)'s. We stayed the night there. Hazrat Ajmeri (db) made me sleep next to him. I was going to sleep on the floor but he insisted i slept on the bed.

After Fajr we made bayan at a Masjid close by. He gave bayan of how Tabligh Jamat started. After bayan, as he came out, he said, "That girl will become Muslim one day". He was lost in deep thought when he said it.

[ahlezikr]

Hazrat Ajmeri (db) took 2 elderly brothers to a side inside the Masjid after the Fajr Bayan and advised them on proper beard and made them promise that they will never trim their beards again. They promised. Hazrat Ajmeri (db) was unwell and had not eaten any solid food for 50+ hours. Hazrat Ajmeri (db) went to sleep right after Fajr and I was praying Ishraq and calling around arranging Majalis and informing brothers. We left 2 brothers at the Airport to pick up the famed Hazrat London786 (db). All the time I was nervous and awaiting his arrival. The brothers took Hazrat London (db) to Maulana Ismail (db)'s and then all of them came to see Hazrat Ajmeri (db).

Hazrat London (db) arrived. He actually deserves a thread on his own I think
He did not even recognize me. He gave Salams but thought I was some poor pauper begging at Maulana Naufal (db)'s door. We put him to proper sleep on the floor next to Hazrat Ajmeri (db) and I git busy with arrangements again. My idea of pillow and bedding for Hazrat London (db) was:



and



but I decided to be lenient as I feared he might Salb me.

[ahlezikr]

Hazrat Ajmeri (db) woke up after 2 hours and had a khusoosi Q and A session after breakfast. He said, "We will talk but keep making Zikr, all the time Zikr. We will stop and talk but continue Zikr". People came to meet Hazrat Ajmeri (db) for sometime and we went for Zuhr. We did bayan after Magrib in one Masjid. Hazrat Ajmeri (db) talked in English and I translated to Tamil. The haal during his talk was so much that I could not translate properly. I have translated many bayans before, but this was hard.

We stopped a few minutes before Isha and went to another Masjid for bayan after Isha. It was the local Ghust day and there was a good crowd there. Hazrat Ajmeri (db) spoke in both Urdu and English there. We returned after Isha, had dinner and started Majlis around 11pm. There were some Saalikeen as well as new people. Hazrat Ajmeri (db) made bayan for sometime and then Maulana Ismail (db) arrived with some Mureedeen and we started Zikr of Nafi Isbat (Laa ilaaha Illallah). Hazrat Ajmeri (db) has a unique style of making Zikr.

Each and every Darb he made was pounding and resounding on my heart. It was out of this world. Majlis finished quite late. Brothers were asked to stay I'tikaf and wake up at 3.30am to make more Zikr. Some brothers stayed. Hazrat London (db) had to finish his Mamoolat so he didnt sleep the whole night I guess, maybe just one hour or less. I fell like a log and someone woke me up at 3.15am

DAY 2

After Tahajjud, it was almost Fajr time so we prayed Fajr and then we all sat down to make Zikr of Isme Zaat ALLAH ALLAH ALLAH. It was very intense and good. When Hazrat Ajmeri (db) made bay't with Mufti Mahmoodul Hasan (rah) he was given 100, 000 Isme Zaat as daily mamool. We got ready after breakfast for our next destination which was my house.
