Greetings!

Our hearts are broken, our eyes are filled with tears and our souls are in grief as we state that our Master, our Teacher, our Saint, our Guide Qutb al-Mutassarif Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani (q), has passed from this worldly life this evening, and moved to al-Rafeeq al-`Alaa, the Highest Companionship of Allah `Azza wa Jall and His Beloved Prophet Sayyidina Muhammad(s), Ahl al-Bayt, the Blessed Companions of the Prophet (s), and their Followers in Goodness, the Highest Saints and Martyrs and the Righteous servants of Allah (swt).

The majestic and noble leader of millions of people around the world will feel an immense void in their temporal lives without his physical presence to comfort them.

Insha-Allah Mawlana Shaykh's janaza will be held Thursday, December 5, 2024 after 'Asr at the Fenton Zawiya.

We will observe three days of mourning on Mawlana's behalf.

We request all Mawlana's mureeds and lovers around the world to pray Janaza Ghayb for Mawlana, recite Surah Yaseen, Surat al-Mulk, Tahlil, salawat, Khatm Khawajagan and to serve meals on the name of Mawlana Shaykh gifting the reward for his soul.

as-salam alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,

Hajjah Naziha Adil Kabbani, Shaykh Nour Kabbani, Hajj Omar Kabbani, Hajj Nazem Kabbani, and all the Kabbani Family

About Shaykh Nour Kabbani

And for that reason I would like to say Grandshaykh, may Allah bless his soul, saw his shaykh and I was standing there waiting, and he showed us a miracle by saying, “You are going to have a son among Awliya, and I want you to call him ‘Nour Mohammad’. He knows so much through physical teaching: that is why they ordered him to study medicine, in order for him to know more about the body, mina 'l-hadratayn, from the two sides, physical and spiritual.

Grandshaykh (q) said, “When you get that child, call him ‘Muhammad,’ and he is inheriting from me.” And so I did. Time went by, and the time has come when we have to announce what my shaykh, Shaykh Nazim, qaddasAllahu sirrah, has said.

[Mawlana looks at Dr. Nour Kabbani.] As ordered through your shaykh, with whatever Grandshaykh `AbdAllah ad-Daghestani dressed Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, Shaykh Nazim is dressing you with what he dressed your father in appearance. Tariqah is not to hear from one to one without absorbing what you are saying. As a result, Mawlana was indicating to me that he will have his grandson, Shaykh Nour, to be one of the 313 Awliya. [Takbir! Allahu Akbar!]

Angels are happy about what happens here today! He said, “My khalifah is your son.” It is not (passed) from father to son. I’m very tough on him, but he has achieved what Awliya want him to achieve, he was able to do it. I didn’t see any shaykh except those who have a high level, who keep the daily wazifa. Whatever he receives to recite, he not only recites it but adds on top of it Salaat an-Najaat, all the salawaat, Salat at-Tasaabeeh, and he stays up from before Fajr until Ishraaq. That will carry him to high levels. Sayyidina ash-Shaykh knows where he gives the power. No one has reached that level in that situation.

People will speak, but don’t give an ear if they say this and that, don’t bother with that. Turn your focus and hope towards Awliyaullah, don’t listen to people. So as the khalifah of Mawlana Shaykh that in this time, in this area, he is dressing, and he is doing what he needs to do, it means his du`a is accepted (and) the acceptance of his du`a is accepted!

Anyone who has something wrong with Shaykh Nour, come to him and he will solve the problem. No argument, say he is this. [Mawlana recites names.] These are the khulafah of Sayyidina al-Mahdi and khulafah of Grandshaykhs, and it is they who have taken him as Awliya, not because he prayed more, but because it was written for him on the Lawh al-Mahfuz.They don’t want to open more secrets, although there are so many things about him, but it is better to listen to the suhbat from him.

So (Shaykh Nour) is one of the Awliya who is able to extract the secrets from the Naqshbandi Golden Chain, not through his work, but by carrying. So let us focus on what is good and what is bad. What is good, Grandshaykh said in your life if you have a problem you have one thing that can clean the messes for you that is a situation that gives power up to Hereafter. So all of you are in need to reach this life of Hereafter, and may Allah (swt) accept our baya`, and accept us in the presence of Prophet (s).

We ask a good end and to see Prophet (s) inshaa-Allah, and for all to be happy that we are connected to him. Now we will renew our baya`, and we say that it is not from me, but it is from Allah `Azza wa Jall, so anyone who wants the baraka makes it in such a way to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim and Grandshaykh.

Wa min Allahi 't-tawfeeq, bi hurmati 'l-Fatihah.

Khulafah is not easy, it is a very heavy task, and he is going to be on that way inshaa-Allah. I will leave it now for Dr. Nour, who is going to carry the responsibility in front of Sayyidina al-Mahdi (a) insha'Allah. We will give spiritual support and we hope to be a servant.

Bi hurmati ‘l-habeeb bi hurmati ‘l-Fatihah.

Now, we don’t laugh here. This is what Awliya have ordered, what happened is from Mawlana Shaykh Nazim: to support Sayyidina Mahdi’s (a) work. Sometimes people make mistakes, but if their mistakes are for dunya they will lose, if it is for Akhirah they will succeed. So are you for dunya or Akhirah? [Akhirah.] Let us raise our hands.
