Ahl al-Bayt: The First Family of Islam

The Ahl al-Bayt of the Prophet Muhammadﷺ

Merits of the First Family of Islam

“Lo! Allah preferred Adam and Noah, the Family of Abraham, and the Family of ‘Imran above all other beings, They were descendants one of another. Allah is Hearer, Knower” (3:33)

“Narrated Abdullah b. Abbas, “Allah seized the kingdom of the Israelites on account of their mistreatment of the Prophets, verily the kingdom of this nation will also be seized by Allah on account of their hatred of ‘Ali b. Abi Talib”– Mizan al-Itidal, Dhahabi v.2 p.251

Teachings of GrandShaykh Nazim al-Qubrusi on Reverence for Ahl al-Bayt

Muslim chivalry: Dhulfiqar banners woven during the 15th century are often decorated with a two-bladed sword wielded by the Holy Prophet’s son-in-law ‘Ali b. Abi Talib and shield shaped. This particular banner, made in 1683 in North Africa, was made of metallic thread and maroon silk. Its inscription is written in the distinctive maghribi script with uniform thick letters and low sweeping curves.

“Who is more honorable than the descendants of the Prophet? Woe to you! Woe to you! All the fitna/corruption is from this, because you left the banner of the Prophet and his children” –**Mawlana GrandShaykh Nazim al-Qubrusi**

“Allah, Allah, may our evenings be good; may good be unfolded to us; may evil be repelled from us; may our enemies and adversaries be subjugated; may the benevolent aid of the Twelve Imams be ever with us; may those among us who reach the goal be not severed from the train of the Twelve Imams; may they be shielded from slander; may our wishes be granted and our supplications accepted. This is the Rose Song (gülbang) of Muhammad: the light of the Prophet, the nobility of ‘Alī; our pīr Muhammad Bahā ad-Dīn Uvaysī, present and watchful, outward and inward; HU, HU!” – Risālat al-Tarīqat an-Naqshabandiya, Prof. Hamid Algar.
