His answer, in his own words
20:42
follow kar saken. ji to doctor sahib isi se agla sawal bhi nikalta hai ke tasbeeh Fatima is ke bare mein bhi aap hum sab ko bataen doctor sahib thoda elaborate karen. haan yeh jo ah ah rasool Allah sallallahu alaihi wasallam ne bataya 33 baar kaho 33 baar aur 34 baar yeh tasbeeh Fatima ke naam se mashhoor ho gayi hai aur log samajhte hain ke tasbeeh ko ginna Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar subhan Allah subhan Allah subhan Allah Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah yeh yani kuch karte rahen aur yeh aise ginte rahen. haan yeh yeh nahi hai tasbeeh Fatima. hmm tasbeeh Fatima to dekhiye jo yeh teen words hain subhan Allah Alhamdulillah aur Allahu Akbar agar yahi bohat hi ah deep meaning hai is ke andar.
21:25
ah yani subhan Allah ka matlab hai glory be to Allah. hmm yani ah its a way of acknowledging the perfection and greatness of God. yani jab aap koi cheez dekhte hain nature ki koi cheez dekhte hain koi cheez aap ko bohat pasand aati hai to aap subhan Allah kehte hain. yani kitna perfect hai hamare creator ke us ne yeh cheez banai yeh ek ehsaas aur yeh ya koi bhi beautiful cheez aap dekhte hain nature mein ya koi bhi to aap ke munh se nikalta hai. yani Allah ki jo qudrat hai jo creative power hai us ko acknowledge karte hain us ka aaitraaf hai. aise hi Alhamdulillah ka matlab hai thank you Allah. ji yani thank you Allah for everything both in good times and in tests and trials.
22:13
hmm yeh thank you Allah in ah difficult times also ke ho sakta hai ke Allah taala is se bhi mushkil halaat paida kar sakta tha. to Alhamdulillah waise hum kehte rehte hain Alhamdulillah lekin is ko bhi yani bohat hi gehri gehra yeh ah word hai. ah yeh emphasize karta hai ke jo saara praise aur saara hamd saara shukr Allah ke liye hai aur surah Al-Fatiha bhi aaghaz isi se hota hai Alhamdulillah Rabbil Alameen. to aur Allahu Akbar ka matlab hai ke Allah is the greatest yani there is no power greater than Allah.
22:57
ji so we should entrust entrust our all affairs ah to Allah yani koi bhi pareshani hai koi bhi de aap ko aisi cheez hai jo aap ko pareshan kar rahi hai to Allah ke khane mein dalen jaise Maulana kehte the aur Allahu Akbar Maulana ki kitab bhi hai. hmm bohat hi achi kitab jis ka English translation hai God's Glory is mein yahi saari baaten hain living in God's glory. tu maulana ka kehna tha ke yeh aik shoori takrar hai yani ap soch ke alhamdulillah aur bismillah kahein na ke na ke ghaflat mein alhamdulillah bismillah kar rahe hain aur pata nahi kya keh rahe hain sirf repeat kar rahe hain.
23:42
tu yeh yeh bohat hi ahem cheez hai aise hi maulana kehte the ke yani yeh aik zikr hai zikr ka matlab maulana ne hamein hamesha kaha hai ke ke khuda ko daryaft karna is ki azmat ko daryaft karna maulana kehte the ke point of reference se zikr karna. ji khuda ki yaad point of reference hai khud insan ka wajood bohat bara point of reference hai kaise woh bol raha hai kaise chal raha hai kaise dekh raha hai kaise hamara dil dharak raha hai poore jo organs hain hamare body ke kaise chal rahe hain itne perfect andaaz mein. ji bana kisi awaz ke tu yeh sari cheezein jab bhi insan dekhta hai koi bhi aisi cheez sochta hai tu us ke liye hamd ke aur praise ke aur shukr ke jazbat us ke andar ah paida hona shuru ho jate
24:35
hain. aise hi maulana ne aik mazmoon likha tha bohat acha mazmoon tha aur tasbeeh fatima ke ooper tha aur is ka jo is ka jo unwan tha heading thi woh tasbeeh khawateen. hmm aur likha tha ke yeh jo tasbeeh hai tasbeeh fatima yeh ah ummat ke tamam khawateen ke liye ah aik bohat hi qeemti tohfa Allah Rasool Allah ne diya yani aik bohat hi qeemti tohfa hai. maulana ne likha tha ke ke yeh is ko tasbeeh khawateen kehna chahiye chounke jo ladies hain un ko aksar time mil jata hai ghar mein tu phir woh bas baatein idhar udhar ki karti hain koi khaas ah koi discussion aisa nahi bas idhar udhar ki baaton mein chat chet aur ji ke party warty jo aaj kal bohat zyada ho gayi hai tu is se bachne ka bohat acha zariya hai ke tasbeeh fatima yani tasbeeh mein apna waqt lagayein aur khuda ki yaad mein apna waqt lagayein
25:38
tu yeh yani ah repetition of word ka mamla nahi hai. hmm balkeh yeh aik ah aik daryaft ka mamla hai shoori daryaft jis ko maulana ne marifat pe itna zor diya hai ke yeh realization ka kalma hai na ke kuch repetition ka kalma. ji doctor sahib yeh bohat mein mein kahunga ke yeh bohat ahem baat hai kyunke itna zyada maulana is ko emphasize karte the aur jaise ap ne kaha ke it is not just mere repetition ah but to think about God. ah jaise doctor sahib ah chapter 2 of the Quran mein aya bhi hai ke ah so you remember me and i will remember you tu Allah taala ka yeh wada hai ke i will remember you ah which is a big ah hope for all of us and doctor sahib aaj ke zamane mein bhi agar hum dekhein ah matlab ritualistic to ho hi gaya hai lekin itne zyada log tension mein stress mein rehte hain and they try to find out ways to get out of that stress and negativity by either going into holidays or spending a lot of money or getting into entertain
26:44
ment tu isi mein yeh remembrance hai hi is mein itni in unequivocal terms mein Quran says in chapter 13 that surely in the remembrance of God hearts find comfort tu ap ne woh jo abhi baat batai ke har cheez mein point of reference ko dhoondna woh bohat important baat hai kyunke that only brings us closer to God tu remembrance ki yahi sirf apne zehn ko activate karna hai. ji woh cheezein har taraf hain yeh pani ka glass bhi hai yeh table bhi hai yeh chair bhi hai yeh mic bhi hai light bhi hai har cheez ji jis ke andar ap ko ghiza milti hai khuda ko yaad karne ki bilkul lekin aik unaware insan hai woh samajhta hai ke yeh tu glass hai yeh hum khareed ke laye hain yeh mic hai yeh tu hum wahan se laye hain yani har cheez Allah ki ata kardah hai. Allah ka gift hai
27:36
koi bhi cheez ji jab aap is tarah se soch sochenge ke yeh carpet bhi Allah ne diya hai yeh light bhi Allah ne di hai ji tab aap ke andar bare gehre jazbat Khuda ke liye paida honge. ji bilkul aur doctor sahib ah yeh yeh tested hai aik dam kabhi bhi jaise love feeling hai if you read some hadith you read some pages of Quran suddenly ap ko aik sukoon mil jata hai تو وہی ایک طریقے سے صحیح معنی میں it's a true way to remember God مولانا نے وہ waqia jo sunaya tha ah Sanjay babu ne diya hai haan haan haan ji woh bara zabardast hai
28:14
Sanjay babu ki den hai Sanjay babu ki den hai haan har cheez ke liye woh keh raha hai Sanjay babu ki den hai ji ji ji chunchke Sanjay Gandhi ne is ki kuch help ki thi woh kuch ban gaya tha MLA waghera ji toh woh jab gaye the milne ke liye jo sahib toh woh charcha karta raha toh yahi cheez har momin ke liye hai ke woh
28:30
charcha karta rahe Allah ka ke yeh Allah ka diya hua hai Allah ka atiya hai Allah ka gift hai ji toh yahi yahi woh is tasbeeh Fatima ki jazak Allah Doctor sahib bohat bohat achhe se aap ne is ko wazeh kiya doctor sahib mein chahunga ke kuch ap interesting kuch episodes un ki zindagi se batayein Hazrat Ali aur Hazrat Fatima ki zindagi se ah tu if you can share some through some light into it haan bara acha relationship tha un ka ah Hazrat Ali chounke ah shayar bhi the he was a poet tu he used to write funny poems for Fatima ji just to make her happy a aur kafi yani this was a house of laughter
29:11
kafi hanste the to lekin kabhi ladai bhi ho jati thi ji ek bar bada disagreement ho gya aur hazrat ali ghar se bahar chale gaye aur ja ke masjid mein so gaye ji to اگلے دن Prophet آئے گھر میں تو Fatima was upset تو ان کو لگا Prophet کو کچھ گڑبڑ hai pucha kya baat hai kaha ke hamari ladai ho gayi thi aur hazrat ali chale gaye bahar
29:39
sone masjid ke andar tu prophet gaye masjid mein dekha ke aik corner pe Hazrat Ali so rahe hain aur un ki jo shirt thi woh utar gayi hai ooper ka garment aur chounke woh us zamane mein jaise maine abhi photo dikhaya mitti ka sara farsh hota tha us waqt na carpet thi na koi marble ke floors the sirf mitti thi tu woh sari mitti dhool ah back mein chipak gayi thi tu Rasool Allah baith gaye aur woh sab mitti chhanane lage ah un ki back se aur bole ke qoom ya abaa turab ke get up sit up o father of dirt abu turab yani father of dirt tu woh bara mashhoor nickname ban gaya Hazrat Ali ka abu turab tu phir Hazrat Ali uth gaye baith gaye aur dono hansne lage bohat phir woh mamla theek ho gaya aur wapas chale gaye ghar
30:40
aise hi jab pehla bachcha paida hua hazrat ali ke haan to unhone naam rakha harb harb ka matlab hota hai war asal mein woh zamana tha ke sab ladte phirte the har waqt ladai hoti rehti thi woh tribal culture tha aur closed society thi to ladna bhadna unki zindagi ka ek bahut hi aham hissa tha to unhone hazrat ali rz ne naam rakha bachche
31:05
ka harb yani war to rasool Allah aaye unhone kaha nahi bhai yeh harb nahi hoga naam is bachche ka naam hoga hasan hasan ka matlab hai goodness ya excellence to aik saal ke baad taqreeban doosra bachcha paida hua phir hazrat ali ne harb rakh diya naam is ka war to phir prophet ko pata chala prophet ne kaha nahi nahi harb nahi hoga is ka naam rakhte hain hum hussain hussain ka matlab hai little hasan is ko tasgheer kehte hain kisi word ko kisi naam ko chhota karna hamare haan bhi hota hai jaise beti ko betiya kehte hain pyar se aise hi hasan ka hussain rasool Allah ne bana diya yani another source of goodness
31:52
to jo hasan aur hussain thay jab aik do saal ke thay to jo sab se ah un ka mehboob mashgala tha woh yeh tha ke woh rasool Allah s.a.w. jab namaz parhte thay to rasool Allah ki back pe aa ke they used to jump on the back of the prophet while he was in sajdah aur rasool Allah apna sajdah prolong kar dete thay ji taake aur zara woh ah apna jo un ka shoq hai woh poora karein aur ah aik waqia bohat hi interesting hai ke prophet khutba de rahe thay masjid mein ji masjid ghar ke barabar mein hi thi ah he was on the pulpit giving sermon to yeh dono daurte hue aaye hasan aur hussain chhote chhote do do saal ke to prophet ne dekha to he came down from the pulpit neeche aa gaye aur baith gaye aur hasan aur hussain ko apne lap pe bitha liya dono aap tasawwur karein ji aur phir khutba dena shuru kar diya yani he both of them sitting on prophet's lap and the prophet is giving khutba yani yeh kis qadar ah in ko mohabbat thi bachchon se yeh bhi aik human touch ji yani prophet bhi insan thay hmm to is mein bhi hamare liye aik pehlu hai ke hum yeh na samjhein ke rasool Allah s.a.w. koi divine ah woh woh dein attribute balkeh ah woh bhi insan thay aur sari woh cheezein ah un ke sath bhi theen aise hi aik aur waqia hai ke sardi ka zamana tha winter thi to aik bohat hi bara cloak aik jabba pehan rakha tha rasool Allah ne ji bohat hi bara jabba
33:31
to yeh dono phir daurte hue aaye hasan aur hussain prophet ke paas aur prophet zameen pe baith gaye aur in dono ke dono ko apne jabbay mein le liya cloak ke andar le liya aur phir fatima ne dekha fatima aaein un ke liye bhi prophet extended his cloak for her woh bhi is mein jabbay mein aa gayeen phir ali aaye un ko bhi le l ya ji to charon ko prophet ne woh bhi bara tasawwur karein bara ajeeb manzar raha hoga phir rasool Allah s.a.w. ne un ke liye dua ki to is tarah ke kuch waqiat milte hain ji hamein ah un ki life se very interesting doctor sahib jazak Allah ah doctor sahib aakhri do sawal lene se pehle kuch comments parhna chahunga yeh comment bheja hai ah doctor aslam khan sahib ne saharanpur se unhon ne
