On reflection on the holy month of Ramadan, we hope that we can
say that we observed this blessed month in the best manner possible
by oneself. Refraining from food during the long summer hours,
paying heed to the last ten days of night devotion and Taraweeh
prayers the restraint of our passions, paying special attention to our
prayers, the heart lifting Dhikr and daily recitation of the holy Quran.

In the month of Ramadan the revelation of the holy Quran is
commemorated to show our gratitude for the divine revelation from
Allah. Not only in this month but throughout our lives we must honour
this spirit through our actions and maintain study of this beautiful
revelation, a mercy to all of mankind.

The month of Shawwal is an opportunity to facilitate the continuation
of the Ramadan spirit by being one of the best times in which missed
days of Ramadan are made up. It is Sunnah to keep six fasts in the
month of Shawwal as narrated in the following Hadith, the Prophet
Muhammad (Sallalahu alaiyhi wasalam) said: He who observes the
fasts in the month of Ramadan and also observes fast for six days in
the month of Shawwal, it is as if he has observed fast for the whole
year. (Muslim)

We reflect on where we are in our self-development of taqwa (God
consciousness) .As the day of reckoning approaches, we reflect on
the principle of forgiveness and the lessons learned during the holy
month of Ramadan, in controlling our anger by pardoning those who
may have offended us as we seek Allahs forgiveness.

One has not had a truly impactful month of Ramadan devotion unless
one can yearn for what one gained during its observation. One must
strive to keep the spirit of the holy month of Ramadan not only in this
month but throughout the year.

In this month one should continue to portray the reflection of the good
deeds which were performed in the previous blessed month of
Ramadan, as this will help us to become steadfast upon those deeds.
SHAWWAL
One way to study and benefit from the Seerah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon)
him is to reflect upon the events which unfolded in the Prophetic era in different months. In
the month of Shawwal alongside with other events, the battle of Uhud is a land mark in the
Seerah. There are numerous lesson one can learn from this battle and the reaction of Com-
panions before, in amidst and after this events. One of which we can relate to today in the
timings we are living is steadfastness, motivation and keeping objectives in mind when going
through adversity and difficult times.

Sayyidina Abdul Azeez narrates that Hazrat Syidina Ali (ra)
once expressed their feelings and expression for the love of
their blessed uncle Sayiduna Hamzah (ra). They said to the
nearest meaning,

"The day we lost our beloved uncle is the day we lost the
attachment of the dunya as it snatched our hearts from our
body as Our uncle was the heart of the Muslim army and as
a result the Muslims will be disheartened, but they failed in
their mission and their objectives as Muslims became even
more dedicated and vigorous towards the enemy of Allah,
the Exalted as if now nothing mattered to us and this drove
some of the opposite party backward due to Allah (swt)
putting fear in to their hearts.

They, the hypocrites believed that by having martyred our beloved uncle we would lose hope,
we would be devastated but rather we showed something opposite, which they did not expect.
However, indeed our hearts were broken on the day on which our beloved uncle went to his
Lord but we knew our objective was not this but the pleasure of Allah (swt) and surely no one
and nothing can harm The Lord of the worlds, only He (swt) will suffice everything in the Here-
after inshaAllah.

If you can uplift your objectives in everyday activities by remembering your Lord then surely
but slowly one can face tests of the dunyah with some ease although, at times our hearts may
be snatched away at some points in our lives but with the objective and motive in mind, it will
restore the heart to its original place.

The enemy of Allah (swt) tried and continued to try it's best to harm the Muslims by using their
most loved ones, but if one learns our way surely he will not fail InshaAllah."
Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh
Teacher of Tareeqah Muhammadiyah
LESSONS AND REFLECTIONS ON THE BATTLE OF UHUD
Lessons from the Battle of the Trench
(Khandaq)

Some people bring the question up that The
Prophet Muhammad (Sallalahu alaiyhi
wasalam) lived physically on the face of earth
14 centuries before, so why is it we should
follow him and find guidance in their teach-
ings when they lived thousands of years
before? One answer to this is that, The Lord
Almighty and The Creator of All, He himself
is free from time and space, time does not
apply to Allah, He knows the future as he
knows the past. Everything is absolute in his
knowledge, therefore even the prophetic
Guidance that Allah has given through the
form of revelations also has no time limit to it.

Prophet Muhammad (Sallalahu alayhi
wasalam) said I am a messenger to all
mankind, jinnat and Messenger till the end of
times. So during the 63 years of the Prophet
(Peace Be Upon Them) life, especially their
23 years of receiving revelations, there
guidance is for mankind, for humanity and
guidance for all who are in search for the truth
till the end of times.

Stories of the Prophet (Sallalahu alayhi
wasalam) life can be heard and read from
anywhere, but that is all we take them for, just
stories. However that is no use or benefit to
us. The life of the Prophet (Sallalahu alayhi
wasalam) was just not for us to read or listen
to, however to take heed and take lessons
from.

It is said, that when the wise point towards the
moon, the fools look at the finger.
If we literally take the meaning of the saying,
which is someone is pointing towards something,
it would be foolish of us to stand there and keep
on looking at the finger, and not towards the
object that is being pointed to.
The story is the finger and the action that has
been done, yes it is very interesting to hear and
listen to a story, but we should also follow the
finger and see what it is pointing at, and that is
the moral and lesson of a story.

Lesson Learnt
This is where the battle of trench comes into it,
it is the battle which taken place during the
month of Shawwal and Dhul Qahdah in the year
5 (AH). In each month of the Islamic Calendar
there is a lesson to be learnt and to be taken,.
As we can see from the diagram above it shows
a sketch of the layout of the battle of Khandaq,
and how it relates to us. The Muslims were in
Madina when news came of the attack from the
enemy, that was about to take place. As we can
see from the diagram Madina represents our
self's, represents our body, mind, heart and soul.
Just like Madina is precious, our body, mind,
heart and soul are precious, hence why it is so
important for it to be defended from the enemy.
GUIDANCE OF THE MONTH DHUL QAHDAH
Who may be these so called enemies of our
Precious body, mind heart and soul you may
think. These enemies are our evil nafs, our
shameful sins, the cursed shaiateen, our
forbidden lusts, the love of fame and name,
the want of accumulating more and more
wealth and so on. These are our enemies that
are intent on destroying us , just like the
Makkans and their allies who were intent on
destroying the Precious Madina.

We have been so engulfed by our enemies,
that we cannot defeat them without help.
First lesson to be learnt is, that we cannot
defeat these enemies on our own, we need
help and we need guidance. Just like the
Prophet (Sallalahu alaiyhi wasalam) done
mashwara with the Sahabas and asked for
their advice. We also need consultation and
advice. And where can we find this from?
We can get it from our Teachers and
Mashaykhs, The Prophet (Sallalahu alayhi
wasalam) might not be here in physical form
to advice us, however we should seek it from
the closest people to the Prophet (Sallalahu
alayhi wasalam), and they are our Teachers
and Mashaykh. With their guidance, we need
to build a protective barrier. The Prophet
(Sallalahu alayhi wasalam) and the Sahabas
began to dig a trench on the advice of Hazrat
Salman Farsi (Radi Allahu 'anhu) who
suggested building a trench across Madina,
so the enemies could not trespass and attack
Madina. Just like them we need to build a
trench around our self, so our enemies
cannot trespass and attack. Our trench is the
inward and outward practice of the Sunnah!
We need to dig the trench of Sunnah around
us, to protect ourselves from the
bombardment of sins.
We cannot forget that it is not from ones own ability
that we are able to protect ourselves from the enemy,
it comes from Allah. Allah has in fact protected us in
so many ways than one, however there is little gaps
and spaces left so we could put in the effort also.
These gaps need to be filled with the practice of the
Sunnah. It may easily be said, but it will take time
and struggle. We shouldnt forget that it took almost
a month of hard work and effort for the Sahabas to
build the trench. So how can we expect a protective
shield around us in a day without no time or effort?
We shouldnt pick and choose a Sunnah according to
the ease of it or what suits us. We dont know by
avoiding some Sunnahs and practising some, our
trench may lack somewhere and thats where we may
be attacked from. The more Sunnahs we practice the
bigger and wider our trench will be, thus becoming
harder for our enemies to attack us. The example of
this was clearly shown in the battle of Khandaq.
There was an area which wasnt as wide and big as
the rest of the trench and the enemies were able to
jump in from there.
While practising the Sunnah and building a
protection around us, we may face certain difficulties
and hardships. The Sahabas faced some difficulties
whilst digging the trench. With the help of Allah the
Prophet (Sallalahu alayhi wasalam) were able to
strike and breakdown the very big rocks that they
came across whilst digging, at the end of striking
and breaking each rock, the prophet received glad
tidings. That is also another lesson for us, if we want
to receive glad tidings then we also need to break
them bad habits that are in our way, by continuing to
practice the Sunnah InshaAllah.
GUIDANCE OF THE MONTH DHUL QAHDAH

MAKING HEARTS WHOLE AGAIN

Alhamdulillah by the grace of Allah brothers from all around the
world came together, and got the opportunity to sit and experience
Itekaaf once again. Who would have thought that the town of Bol-
ton, located in the north west of England would become the meeting
point of brothers from all walks of life, nationally and internationally.
They all had one aim and one purpose in common, and that was
what brought these brothers in Islam together.
MashaAllah after a great response from the brothers for Itekaaf
2013. Plans and preparations began for Itekaaf 2014.

The whole purpose of Itekaaf apart from it being a Sunnah that was
practiced by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be upon him), it was so the
Brothers could be part of a retreat in the masjid, for the last 10 days of
Ramadhan. Somewhere where they could repair their relationship and
build ties with their creator. A place where they could detach them-
selves from their worldly lives, from the worldly temptations and worldly
desires. And to replace all of that, by learning their purpose of life, and
to begin their journey towards Allahs Ultimate Pleasure. Not only that,
but to learn how to implement and practice what they have learnt.

Every path has a guide and every student has a teacher, guiding them
step by step. Every Generation after the Prophet Muhammad (Peace
Be upon Him) had a guide to redirect them to the path of the Sunnah,
and to the path of Allahs Pleasure.
So during this motivational Itekaaf experience, this generation was
able to experience the light of a teacher and the fez of a guide, and
were able to sit in the blessed company of Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh,
the Master and Current Teacher of Tareeqah Muhammadiyah. Their
spiritual guidance uplifted the hearts of the brothers that driven them to
the love of Allah, and to the love of the Blessed Messenger of Allah
(Peace be upon him). They sat Itekaaf alongside the brothers and
helped them throughout the day, through Discourses, motivational
speeches and spiritual guidance of Tazkiyah and Tassawuf through
diagrammatical form.
THE HOUSE OF CLOSENESS

Under the Supervision of Shaykh Ahmad
Dabbagh, a whole visual Presentation
was designed to make the brothers
understand the whole teachings of
Tareeqah Muhammadiyah, through the
form of a House. In this world a house
and whatever the house contains are very
valuable things in a persons property and
wealth.

However Allah has also given us a very
valuable thing. It is not a house of this
world, but rather a house for the spirit and
the heart. This house that Allah has given
us is the body, and the gifts of Allah are
the treasures and the jewels of this house,
they represent the heart and the soul.


Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh also said Your heart is
like a house. So if the body is the house of the
spirit, then to what is the heart a house too? The
heart is the house to Allah (SWT) and to His
Pleasure. After every Zuhr Prayer, the Teacher
Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh gave a two hours long
discourse. This discourse explained and helped
to make the Brothers understand, how we can
turn our hearts in to houses of Allah and Gar-
dens of the Sunnah.
The teacher Shaykh Ahmad Dabbagh explained
and said "There are four layers of foundation of
this house. If the foundation is weak, then the
whole building shall collapse. Some people
have only one layer and others have none, they
are the fools who have built their houses on the
sand and sea. Their entire house shall sink into
destruction." The teacher Shaykh Ahmad
Dabbagh further explained how the house, its
foundations, its rooms, its furniture and so on.
They explained how it all relates to us and our
journey in building the ultimate house of the
pleasure of Allah.
They were taught the teachings of Tareeqah
Muhammadiyah, how before you start the
journey towards Allah, you need to have a
strong foundation, just like a house has a
strong foundation. This Foundation consists of
4 layers which are Aqeedah, Fiqh, Repentance
and Striving. Every House has Doors and
Windows, which are the 7 bodily organs that
need to be purified. The walls represents the
purification of the mind, each brick and the
cement of the wall represent the good thought
and reliance upon Allah. The Purification of
the Heart is represented by the rooms of the
house, in a house no two rooms are the same,
they are all different, and they all have different
characteristics, just like a persons Heart. The
Electricity is one of the main systems of a
house, because without it no appliance of
the house will work. For example a light bulb,
without the light everything will be in darkness.
This Electricity represents the Enlightenment of
the soul. This was a quick overview of the main
teachings of Tareeqah Muhammadiyah, for the
full and in detail discourses, please visit the
YouTube channel of Tareeqah Muhammadiyah
or you may purchase the full DVD set


Zikr and Dhikr Majalis

Another important time during the Itekaaf experience
for the brothers, was the time they could eat. This was
not the food that is ate at the time of Iftar, this was the
food that our spirits are hungry for. The brothers were
able to feed their spirits, by taking part in the heart
moving Durood and Zikr Majlis.

These were very special programmes, which were set
at the time of Tahhajud (the heart of the night). The
time when Allah comes down to the first Heaven and
calls his servants, and says Is there anyone that
wants forgiving, so that I may forgive him, Is there
anyone that has a need, so that I may fulfil his needs
or wishes. So at this very unique time, the brothers were able to do the Dhikr of Allah,
Remembrance of Allah and send their Durood and Salaam upon the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be
Upon Him).

The Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) said these Dhikr Majlises are Gardens of Paradise.
Hazrat Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon
him) said, "When you come upon the meadows of the Garden, graze in them." The Sahabahs asked,
"What are the meadows of the Garden?" The Prophet (Peace be upon him) replied "Circles of Dhikr".
This Hadeeth was the motivation for the brothers, so that they may also graze in the Gardens of
Paradise, by taking part in the Circles of Dhikr, and eating the fruits of Remembrance of Allah. To set
the mood right, and to give the brothers even more motivation, visual tools were used. A beautiful
back drop of the old Masjid Nabawi was used to set the mood right, and for the brothers to visually
imagine themselves at Medina Sharif, during the time of The Prophet (Peace be upon him).



Love and Motivation

On the very first day of Itekaaf during the after Zuhr Discourse, the Teacher mentioned one of the
great fitnahs of our times. This fitnah wasnt present at the time of the Prophet (Peace Be Upon
Them) or the Sahabahs. Over time it gradually grew till now, where it is at its utmost high. That
Fitnah is that Ilm (knowledge) is something different and separate from Amal (practise), and the
thought that one can benefit from one without the other.

We learn from the lives of the Sahabahs,
that when they heard something new re-
garding their Deen, they didnt just listen to
it or think about it. They listened and prac-
tised upon it straight away. Hence why in
the Quran it says We have heard, and we
have obeyed referring to the mentality that
the Sahabahs had, that when they hear
whatever the Prophet (Peace be upon
them) mentions, they will straight away act
upon it. During the very beginning of the
Itekaaf experience the brothers were first
given the seed of love and motivation, so
they could act upon whatever they will learn. When the commands of Namaaz or Fasting for exam-
ple had come down, it wasnt straight away at the time of the Prophet receiving Prophet hood. How-
ever a few years later when the Sahabahs had the love and motivation for reaching the pleasure of
Allah, thats when Allah sent down the Ahkaam (Commands and Rulings).
Just like that the Brothers who were sat Itekaaf, heir love and motivation was developed throughout
the ten days, so once they leave that environment. They were ready to practice what they have
learnt, from the Teachings of Tareeqah Muhammadiyah. How one is to purify their own selves,
through their bodily organs, their minds, their hearts, their souls and how to stay steadfast upon it
InShaAllah.
TESTIMONIAL

Itekaaf 2014 with Tareeqah Muhammadiyah was a very
beneficial experience. The spiritual aspect went far be-
yond my expectations. The Dhikr was particularly power-
ful. I already knew the Tareeqh organised very structured
discourses delivered by Hazrat Saab, yet once again I was
amazed at the depth and detail given in the house of close-
ness to Allah course. The analogy relating to building a
house was a very effective method to help us break down
each section. May Allah reward all the brothers and their
hard work involved with the Itekaaf .
Muhammad Javed
TESTIMONIAL

The Itekaaf I went to was the first time I went. Al-
hamdulillah I have never been to such a spiritual envi-
ronment. Being with people who have differ back-
ground and relating to your life was a new experience.
For me it was the extra boost that I needed and i rec-
ommend it to everyone if they want to get closer to
Allah. Being surrounded by such knowledgeable
people and it was an extremely friendly environment,
the food wasn't bad either.

Mission Youth s aim is to help create the
love of ALLAH and his MESSENGER
whilst having some serious FUN!!! Seri-
ous Fun that will create the love of Allah
and His Messenger. One may think how?
True to their Motto Mission Youth are
able to show us how to have serious fun
and create the love of Allah and His Mes-
senger at the same time.

Mission Youth is an organization thats
aim and objective is to create an atmos-
phere where people can find sincere
friendship for the sake of Allah, through
having fun and thus taking them away
from unlawful activities i.e. gangs, drugs
and etc.

Through these activities the youth are
able to have first hand experience, on
how they can enjoy themselves law-
fully. An example is Paint Balling, which
is one of the activities Mission Youth has
taken part in. Below are some of activi-
ties completed:

-3 Day Spiritual Camps
-Go-Karting
-North West Football Tournament
-Weekly Gatherings of Ilm/ Zikr
It comes in Hadeeth to the nearest meaning, that
they will be seven under the shade of Allah on the
Day of Judgement. The Day when the Sun will be
a mile above peoples heads, the day when peo-
ple will be drowning in their own sweat, and the
day when mothers will stand on their child, be-
cause the ground is too hot to stand upon, that
same mother whose ground under her feet
breaks if she sees her child in any type of pain.
On that day, they will be seven blessed types of
people under the shade of Allah. And one of the
types of people is the youth who spends their
youthful days in the worship of Allah .

With that in mind, Mission Youths belief is to unite
the youth of the Ummah of the Prophet (Peace Be
Upon Him) and to guide them on to the straight
path. Mission Youth teach the youth that practis-
ing your Deen can be fun, it is not all strict and
firm.

The focus of Mission Youth is the development of
Muslim youth through various educational, so-
cial and spiritual programs. Mission Youth fo-
cuses on meeting the challenges faced by the
youth and how it can have drastic effects upon
the community. Mission Youth is lead by individu-
als who understand modern day situations, and
how it is vital to respond to these needs.

And most importantly how they are to do all of
this, and at the same time incorporating the prin-
ciples and ethics of Islam.
One of Mission Youths aims is to get the youth
off the streets, and build the love and thirst of
Allah into their lives. And how Mission Youth is
continuing to do that, is by organising a spe-
cial spiritual retreat to the lake district, with
the fun factor implemented into it also.

Like any other Spiritual retreat, The Prophetic
Paths Spiritual Retreat, will also have guides
and teachers present there. But the difference
between these guides and teachers and of
other retreats, is these guides and teachers
are non-other than modern days Saliheen and
Aauliya Allah.
The youth will have the opportunity to spend a
whole weekend with the Current Master and
Teacher of Tareeqah Muhammadiyah Shaykh
Ahmad Dabbagh. With Imam Asim Hussain,
Shaykh Esa Henderson, Imam Adil Hussain
and Mufti Fazal Qayyum Subhani.
Through out the weekend the youth will be
able to carry out various activities, and fulfil
its aims and purposes. Which one of them is
the chance and opportunity for the youth, to
learn how they can start and begin their own
journey, to meet the Lord of the Worlds and to
the Kingdom of Heaven.
Through the Guidance and Support from
the different Scholars and Teachers, the
youth will be able to get a feel and insight
of their teachings, and how it all relates
back to The Prophetic Path, the Blessed
Teachings of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be
Upon Him).
In today's society we are aware that there
is no deficiency in access to the knowl-
edge of Deen. However what is in defi-
ciency is the actual practice of Deen,
according to the teachings of The Holy
Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). And be-
cause of this, there is a lot of heedless-
ness and ignorance growing in the Um-
mah as a whole.
So it is very important that the youth of
today are taught the simple and straight-
forward methodology of the Prophetic
Path. In which they will first of all learn
about the path, and then secondly learn
how they can practice and Implement
that methodology in to their lives. Step by
step they will be guided on how they can
improve their relationship with Allah, and
how they can beauty themselves with the
Sunnah inwardly and outwardly.
And like any other Mission Youth Events,
there will be no shortage of exciting
things to do, Rock Climbing and Canoeing
to name a few. And what better setting to
do all of that, then the Beautiful and Pic-
turesque scenery of the Lake District.
The Spiritual Retreat will be from the
22nd August to the 25th of August. An
event that not only will be very beneficial
to the youth, but an event packed full with
blessings of Allah
