DREAMS OF DUROOD SHARIF

Compiled by: Dr Umar Azam

Manchester, UK

April 2011

DREAM NO. 1:

I DREAMT THAT I WAS FULL OF KINDNESS AND

GOODWILL TOWARDS A PUPIL OF MINE CALLED

'MARIAM', WHO WAS A STUDENT AT MANCHESTER

UNIVERSITY. I WAS GOING TO SEND HER A

NUMBER OF ISLAMIC ATTACHMENTS [I.E. HOLY

QURAN, DUROOD SHARIF] THAT WOULD GIVE HER

THE ANSWERS [AND TELL HER THE 'SECRETS'] OF

THE EXAM QUESTIONS THAT SHE WAS GOING TO

FACE AT THE UNIVERSITY. THE E-MAILS I WAS

GOING TO SEND HER WERE SINCERELY FROM THE

HEART I.E. I WANTED THE BEST FOR HER BUT

ALSO WANTED HER, IN MY TURN, TO

ACKNOWLEDGE MY VALUABLE HELP.

CONTEXT

MARIAM, MY FORMER PUPIL, CAME IN MY DREAM

BECAUSE I HAD TAUGHT HER GCSE MATHS, EVEN

THOUGH SHE WAS ONLY IN YEAR 7 [SHE WAS ONLY

12 YEARS OLD, BUT DOING THE WORK OF A 15 OR

16 YEAR-OLD] BECAUSE I WANTED THE BEST FOR

HER AND SHE ACTUALLY GAINED HIGH MARKS IN

THE WORK. I WAS FULL OF GOODWILL AND WANTED

HER TO GET REALLY CLEVER IN MATHS AND I KNEW

THAT SHE WAS INTELLIGENT ENOUGH TO LEARN

GCSE MATHS, SO I DECIDED TO TEACH IT EARLY.

SIMILARLY, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN REQUESTING

ONLY THE AAB-E-KAUSAR BOOK OF DUROOD SHARIF

FROM ME BUT, OUT OF MY GOODWILL, I HAVE BEEN

SENDING THEM A FURTHER ELEVEN ATTACHMENTS:

1. THE HOLY QURAN [ARABIC]

2. THE HOLY QURAN [ENGLISH TRANSLATION]

3. THE WEDDING AND MARRIAGE GUIDE

4. AZAFA RIZQ DUA [FOR INCREASE IN

SUSTENANCE]

5. BARAH HEERI TAWEEZ

6. POWER OF DUROOD BOOKLET BY MOHAMMED JAVAD

7. PRACTICAL ISLAMIC ADVICE [MY OWN WORK ]

8. ISLAMIC CALENDAR FOR 1432 A.H.

9. DUA FOR A HOUSE IN JANNAT

10. DUA BOOKLET

11. DUA-E-SHIFAA [FOR GOOD HEALTH]

DREAM NO. 2 : FRIDAY 28 JANUARY 2011

I DREAMT THAT THOSE SYEDS [DESCENDENTS OF

THE HOLY PROPHET MUHAMMED (P)] MAKING A

REQUEST FOR THE AAB-E-KAUSAR BOOK OF DUROOD

SHARIF WERE GIVING ME DOUBLE WORK TO DO

BECAUSE OF THE WAY IN WHICH THEY WERE MAKING

THEIR REQUESTS. BUT EVERYTHING - THE WHOLE

PROCEDURE - WAS SOLID, MEANING THAT THE

SYEDS WERE SINCERE IN THEIR REQUESTS AND I

WAS DEPENDABLE IN SENDING THE ATTACHMENT OF

THE BOOK TO THEM.

CONTEXT

DREAM NO. 3 : WEDNESDAY 9 FEBRUARY 2011

I DREAMT THAT I ASKED AN INTELLIGENT GIRL

PUPIL TO SEND ME THE MASTER COPY OF A

CERTAIN DUROOD SHARIF. SHE DID SEND IT AND,

ONCE IT CAME INTO MY POSSESSION, I

DISTRIBUTED THE DUROOD WIDELY AND I

POPULARISED IT SO EFFECTIVELY, TO SUCH AN

EXTENT, THAT THE DUROOD BEGAN TO APPEAR AT

THE BACK OF COOMERCIALLY-PRODUCED PACKET OF

CRISPS, SUCH AS WALKERS' CRISPS! AFTER I

HAD RECEIVED THIS DUROOD SHARIF FROM THE

GIRL PUPIL, I REALISED THAT THIS DUROOD HAD

ALREADY BEEN FAMILIAR TO ME AND, IN FACT, I

HAD B EN THE ORIGINAL DISTIBUTOR OF THIS

DUROOD [SO THE GIRL PUPIL MUST HAVE OBTAINED

THE DUROOD INITIALLY FROM ME SOMEHOW]!

I DREAMT OF SOMEONE BEING INVITED TO A LOCAL

RADIO STATION TO TALK ON THE SUBJECT OF:

'DUROOD SHARIF'. I WAS GOING TO INTERVIEW

HIM AND THIS EXPERT WAS SO COWARDLY THAT HE

WAS FRIGHTFULLY NERVOUS!

DREAM NO. 4 : SUNDAY 27 FEBRUARY 2011

I DREAMT SOMETHING GOOD ABOUT LIAQAT, THE

FATHER OF SELINA, ONE OF MY TUITION PUPILS.

CONTEXT

LIAQAT HAD RECEIVED ABOUT 5 COPIES OF THE

POWER OF DUROOD BOOKLET COMPILED BY MOHAMMED

JAVAD. HE THEN ASKED FOR 5 MORE COPIES BUT

THE BOOKLETS HAD ALL BEEN DISTRIBUTED AND

THERE WERE NONE LEFT. SO I PRINTED OUT A

COPY OF LOOSE SHEETS FROM THE INTERNET AND

STAPLED THEM AND HANDED IT OVER TO LIAQAT

[HE PASSED IT ONTO KARAMAT, HIS BROTHER].

DREAM NO. 5 : TUESDAY 8 MARCH 2011

I DREAMT THAT I WAS WITH THE PROPHET

MUHAMMED [P] AND WE WERE BOTH HAPPY.

DREAM NO 6 : SUNDAY 10 APRIL 2011

THERE WAS A REALLY HAPPY FEELING IN THIS

DREAM. I DREAMT THAT I SAW WIDGETS. ONCE

CLICKED, THESE LINKED TO OTHER DUROOD

WEBSITES - THE SOURCES OF INFORMATION THAT I

WOULD USE FOR MY POWER OF DUROOD WEBSITE

[E.G. THE 'READ ARABIC' SECTION]. EACH

WIDGET LED TO A VERY COMPREHENSIVE AND

COLOURFUL WEBSITE ON DUROOD SHARIF. THERE

WAS A REALLY HEROIC FEELING AROUND ME AS I

WAS USING THESE WEBSITES TO MAKE MY OWN

REALLY OUTSTANDING!

DREAM NO. 7: MON 11 APRIL 2011

DREAMT OF TWO REALLY INVITING WIDGETS THAT I

COULD CLICK TO CREATE/MAINTAIN MY DUROOD

SHARIF

SITEhttp://powerofdurood.weebly.com THEY

WERE INVITING IN THE SENSE THAT I WOULD

EXPERIENCE THE JOY OF BUILDING THE SITE BY

CLICKING THEM.

DREAM NO. 8 : TUE 12 APRIL 2011

DREAMT THAT ONE OF THE LINKS ON MY POWER OF

DUROOD SITE LED TO ANOTHER WEBSITE WHICH

SUPPLIED CONTENT WHICH WAS CONTRARY TO THE

TENETS OF ISLAM:

THE SINGING OF DUROOD SHARIF IN THE FORM OF

POP SONGS!

INTERPRETATION

THIS DREAM IS MAKING ME AWARE THAT CERTAIN

MUSLIMS NOWADAYS HAVE MADE ACTS OF RELIGIOUS

DEVOTION INTO AN ART FORM: THEY ARE

CREATING, AND OTHERS ARE LISTENING TO, HOLY

VERSES FROM THE QURAN, AND DUROOD DUAS,

LYRICS ACCOMPANIED BY MUSIC! I MUST CHECK

THE LINKS I RECOMMEND ON MY WEBSITE AND MAKE

SURE THAT ALL OF THEM OFFER INFORMATION ON

DUROOD SHARIF IN LITERARY AND SCHOLARLY

FORM.

PARADISE] COMES INTO MY FLAT AND INTO MY

CAR.

SHARIF]. THIS MESSAGE IS INFORMING ME THAT

NIGHT (IN LIGHT FROM LIGHTBULBS).

MESSAGE OF WEDNESDAY, 6 APRIL 2011

I HAD A MESSAGE THAT, FOR MAKING THE POWER

[ARCHITECTURALLY] DIFFERENT.
