Introduction: An-Noor
This blog is dedicated to the proliferation of the teachings of the Thanwi silsilah through what we have acquired from our beloved Shaikh, Hazrat Maulana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Sahib (DB).
Hazrat Maulana Shah Hakeem Akhtar is the khalifah of Maulana Abrar-ul-Haq Sahib (RA), who was a khalifah of Hazrat Thanwi (RA). He was also khadim-e-khaas (Special Attendant) of one of the most senior and prominent khulafa of Hakim-ul-Ummah (RA), Maulana Shah Abdul Ghani Phoolpuri (RA).
Hazrat Maulana Hakeem Akhtar Sahib (DB) is one of the few living Auliya of our time who is carrying on the legacy of Hakeem-ul-Ummah in a realistic way. He continues to implement, preserve, and sustain the anwaar and barakaat of the Hazrat Haji Imdaadullah Sahib’s (RA) and Hazrat Thanwi’s (RA) Khanqah, the Khanqah Imdaadiya Ashrafiya of Thanabhawan, located in the Khanqah Imdaadiya Ashrafiya of Karachi, even in this day and age.
Nawab Qaisar Sahib (DB) who is a living mureed of Hazrat Hakeem-ul-Ummah (RA) and khalifah of Dr. Abdul Hayy Sahib (RA) attests to this fact that whenever he comes to Hazrat Maulana Hakim Akhtar Sahib’s Khanqah in Karachi, he feels the spiritual atmosphere and aura of the Khanqah of Thanabhawan and is compelled to exclaim:
“Hay Karachi may bhi ek Thanabhawan.”
In Karachi there is a Thanwabhawan.”
The teachings of Hazrat Thanwi (RA) which are being revived and disseminated by our beloved Hazrat, Maulana Hakim Akhtar Sahib (DB), is aptly conveyed and elucidated by the following statements of Hazrat Maulana Sayyid Sulaiman Nadwi (rahmatullahi alaihi):
“By virtue of his (Hazrat Thanwi’s) ta’leem (teachings), tarbiyat (spiritual training), writings, lectures and preaching, true aqaa`id (beliefs) were disseminated; correct masaa`il (laws) were propagated; programs for Deeni Ta’leem were initiated; wrong customs and innovations were eradicated; the Sunnah of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) was revived; the negligent were observant; the sleeping ones awoke; those who had forgotten, remembered; those who had broken away from Allah were connected to Him; hearts kindled with the love for Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), and hearts lit up with the remembrance of Allah Ta’ala. That branch of knowledge (Tasawwuf) which had become abandoned, once again became adorned with the treasures of Shibli, Junaid Baghdadi, Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilaani, Suhrwardi and Mujaddid Alf-e-Thaani (rahmatullahi Alaihim).”
This attribute and rank of revival (tajdeed) in this century has been bestowed by Allah Ta’ala specifically on the Mujaddid (reviver) of the time, viz., Hazrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi (RA). The noble endeavor of carrying on his legacy is now being fulfilled by Maulana Hakim Akhtar Sahib.
We pray to Allah Ta’ala that He perpetually showers His limitless blessings and mercy on all of our Akaabir, and their servants, who preserved and are continuing to preserve this Deen in their lives and through their teachings, and that Allah Ta’ala always grant them and us all His ranks of Proximity. Aameen!

Aslm Alkm
I am not sure if my post reached the comments but I was asking why the note “NOTE: Those who suffer from depression or have weak hearts should NOT do the above meditations.” I have Hypertension and I recited Laa ilaa ha ilallah. After reciting it a few times I feel a tendency to cry and tears come to my eyes. Should I refrain or is this a good sign and I can continue. Please advise soonest. Shukran

This is the first time that I have seen your site. I have given it a quick glance and will study it in detail in the near future, Inshaa Allah Ta’aala.
Very informative and inspiring.
May Haq Ta’aala accept and grant you the Taufeeq of more and more wonderful service to the Deen. Aameen. May He also keep the lofty shadow of Hadhrat Wala over us for a very very long time. Aameen.
