Ya NOOR Mowlana Hazar Imam, we pray for:

  1. The well being of the whole NOORANI Family
  2. Mushkil Asaan for the global Jamat
  3. Material, spiritual & intellectual upliftment of the global Jamat
  4. Salvation of all departed souls
  5. Peace for the whole humanity

Knowledge Section:

Let us reflect on the tawil of the phrase 'Siratal Mustaqeem' of the Holy Qur'an (1:5)):

"It is said in verse (11:56): "Verily my Lord is on the straight path." That is, the representative of God (the Imam of the time) is the path of luminous knowledge and guidance from the beginning to the end. And this is the taw'il of the straight path." [Source: Tawil No. 501, A Thousand Wisdoms]

For today's session, let us use a bouquet of Ihdinas-Siratal Mustaqeem and Pir-Shâh tasbis to appreciate Allah's Grace for bestowing upon us the recognition and guiding hand of NOOR Mowlana Shah Karim al Hussaini Hazar Imam (Please recite the Holy Salwat).

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

Noor Mowlana Aga Ali Shah Maa Baap has said that if a person says 40 beads of Pir-Shâh and bestows the benefit to the whole Jamat, then He will reward him/her the benefit of building a Darkhana. Pir refers to the Light of the Holy Prophet and Shah refers to the Light of Hazrat Ali. At present, NOOR Mowlana Hazar Imam holds the rank of Shah and Pir. Therefore, this tasbi is equivalent to Yâ Muhammad, Yâ Ali.
