SALATUL FATIHI THE KEY TO
PARADISE
One day Sheikhul Islam Alhaji
Ibrahim Niasse RTA arrived in
Kano, Nigeria and he lodged in
emir (Alhaji Abdullahi bayero)'s
house.
The following day one of his
disciple Alhaji Uba ringim came and
started cutting sheikh's nails while
the emir was picking them and
putting them in his handkerchief.
And there's somebody outside the
room reciting the Dalaa'ilul
khairat.
So all the Sheikh's attention was
in his recitation, after a while
Sheikh sent his khadim Nasiru to
check who is reciting dalaa'ilul
khairat and ask him what he
wants.
So, Nasiru went outside the room
and met that person and told him
"Sheikh said I should come and
ask who you are and what you
want...", the person said "my
name is Umaru, and am reciting dalaa'ilul khairat (a book of salat
authored by Sheikh Jazuli RTA)
and I want Sheikh RTA to give me
izn (permission) of reciting it. So,
Nasiru came back and told Sheikh
what Umar said.
Sheikh told Nasiru to go and
bring him in, so when Umar came
in, Sheikh holds his hands and
said "oh malam Umar I've given
you the permission of reciting
Dalaa'ilul khairat but let me tell you, even if you will spend 100
years completing dalaa-ilul Khairat
each hour, it will not compare the
grades of somebody who recites
salatul fatihi One time... only this
one I can tell you that your aql (brain) can take but the grade is
above this".
So the Sheikh's khadim (Nasiru)
said that after this event I never
see malam Umar unless I use to
hear his voice on radio, after like
4 years one day after subhi
prayer I heard someone knocking my door and asked who was it
and he said "it's me" (Malam
Umar).
So I opened the door for
him....when he came in he started
crying to the extent that he
can't even open his mouth to say
something, after about an hour
he told me that the reason he came is because he dreamt last
night.
He said he dreamt that the day
of resurrection (Alqiyama) has
arrived so he saw one big door
that he never saw a door as big
as that...when he was close to
door he found 3 men in front of it, one of them said he is Prophet
Ibrahim A.S. khalilur Rahman.
So, Prophet Ibrahim A.S said this
door is for people that are
reciting prayer upon Rasulillah
SAW so, the malam Umar said me
too used to read Dalaa'ilul
khairat..after then he saw many people each one of them have a
key with him...each of them when
they get to that door will use
the key in their hand to open
the door with and enter....so the
malam Umar checked his body and found the key with him...so he
approach the door and put the
key in the lock but it didn't open.
He suddenly got confused and
went back to Prophet Ibrahim A.S.
and told him what happened.....Pr
ophet ibrahim A.S said "as you
can see, am also a Prophet but I
recited SALATUL FATIHI before this door open to me, because by
reciting one SALATUL FATIHI it's
light is ascending from tahtath-
thara (the seventh Ard) to
Al'arsh.
So, malam Umar said me (Baye's
khadim is still talking) that I
memorised salatul fatihi so he
recited it once, immediately he
found a key in his body he said
the key was so cold that he was feeling the coldness in his bone so
he removed the key from his
pocket and put it in the door
and the door opened and he
entered!
SUBHANALLAH!!! brothers and
sisters let's Continue reciting our
SALATUL FATIH!!!
