URS SHAREEF MUBAARAK Hazrat Maulana Shafee Okarvi [Rahmatul Laahi Alaieh]
Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Shafee Okarvi [Rahmatul Laahi Alaieh] speech excerpts
Allaah Kareem has said the hypocrites are not believers because they had no love for the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam]
Ieemaan is love for the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] Let me conclude! He who loves the Holy Prophet will love the children, companions, wives, Shariaah, sunnah, city, grave of the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] and everything that has a connection with him.
To love that which is connected to the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] is to love him. If we do love the Holy Prophet then we must follow in his footsteps. There are those that follow his methodology but have no love for him. Those that imitate (itteba) him with love become Auliyaa-Allaah.
We must enhance our love for the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam], true belief (Aqeedah) with actions (Amaal) and we will become Allaah Kareem’s beloveds.
Ieemaan is love for the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] will a true lover of Ieemaan brand salutations (Durood-o-Salaam) and Niyaaz on his name as a waste of time?

Somebody has printed and expressed this blasphemous statement in a Cape Town newspaper. A lover will never brand going to Madeenah with the intention of visiting the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] at his grave as impermissible. A lover will proclaim that even if we proceed to that sacred ground using our eyes as feet we will not be able to fulfill our duty.
A lover will always speak about his beloved. A lover will never brand as shirk the touching of the sacred enclosure (jaali) around the sacred grave. A lover will use the sand of Madeenah as colyrium (surmaah) for his eyes.
All the opposition branding of acts of love as shirk is proof of their hearts being devoid of love. We kiss our thumbs,following the act of love for the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] as done initially by Hazrat Aadam [Alaiehis Salaam]and re instituted by Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq [Radiyal Laahu Anhu], the act that the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] said guarantees his intercession.
They. Who oppose us; brand this act of love as bidaah. They run out of our Meelaad celebrations when we rise to send salutations, bur reappear when it is time to eat. They are shameless. Allaah Kareem save true Muslims from them! Save yourselves from being influenced by their deviant beliefs by keeping yourselves firm on the path of the Salaaf Saaliheen. If we believe them then we are accepting that all our forefathers were bidaati and Mushrik. Did not your forefathers celebrate Meelaad; Giyaarween Shareef; go to Mazaars etc. Yes they did! So this is the path of Ahle Sunnat Wa Jamaa’at and the true path. Strive to keep the Aqaaid of Ahle Sunnat Wa Jamaa’at alive.
