about tareeqah muhammadiyah

assalamualicum my dearest brother in islam i am sorry that i did not answer your request before, as i forgot please forgive me for my short commings, Brother before i start i must say that this is a brief attempt to explain why it is called tareeqah muhammadiyah, if you would like more information then use the website (www.zawiyah.org) to ask this question and inshallah you will get a more detailed answer why this tareeqah is called TAREEQAH MUHAMMADIYAH.

yes you wanted to know why our tareeqah was named tareeqah muhammadiyah well there are two reasons for this, firstly the blessed founder of the tariq as mentioned above syyidina Abdul azeez dabbagh (r.a) who was a decendent of the prophet (sallahualihiwasallam). he llived and died in the blessed city of fez, moroco (magrib) the tareeqah is named after the peophet (Sallahualihiwasallam) becasue unlike other tareeqahs the shaykh (may Allah (swt) bless his soul), thought it was inappropriate for people to know him, he regarded that it was not important for people to know who he was, as he SAW himself as the scum of the earth not giving any honour,dignity, importance and fame to himself, he put the importance that people know more about the prophet (SALLAHUALIHIWASALLAM), HE WAS TRYIG TO HUMBLE HIMSELF AS MUCH AS HE COULD, trying to act upon humility, as im sure you must have come across people who try to humble themselves infront of allah (swt) that they think they are worset creations  because they have a lot of fear of Allah (Swt). like im sure you know about Hazrat Abu Bakr (r.a) who used to say when he saw birds flying past that " i wish abu bakr was a bird like you because you live and eat in the knigdom of Allah (swt) and you have no reconing on the day when childerns hair will turn grey (day of judgement)"  - subhan allah! so in the similar situation siyydina abdul azeez dabbagh used to do the same things and think like that. i am not saying that other tareeqahs which were named after their founder wrong its just that with siyyduna abdul azeez dabbagh was very sweet and humble by nature and he liked not to be known by people so that he could live a simply and normal life like the characteristics of the prophet (sallahualihiwasaalam) thats why you will see that their are not many books written by him or not many people know him, but one book does exists which was written by his strudent - shaykh mubarak the book is entitled al ibris in their most of the teaching of his are mentioned.

secondly the other reason is that this tareeqah named this because the blessing and barakas come straight form prophet (sallahuailhiwasallam), and the other main factor is that the ultimate aim of the tareeqah is to become full embodyment of the sunnah of the messenger of Allah (swt) form sleeping the sunnah way to eating dressing etc... as the prophet (sallahualihiwasallam) said to the nearest meaning "who ever practices one sunnah of mine at the time of fitnah and near the end of time then the reward will be of 50 to 70 matyrs) and as we are fully aware that before a matyr's one drop of blood falls on the battle ground he is shown Jannah)!

i hope i was able to at least attempt in fulling your thirst my brother in islam

and you aslo wanted to know why my user name was fana - of - allah well, it means that one is extint in allah what this means is extint in the love of allah (swt), these are terminologies which you might not have come across they are used in thasauwuff, here it does not necessarly mean that one is extint in the love only but it means that his love for allah (swt0 is manifested by his action, words, and activities, that he is not lazy in carrying out he commands of allah(swt). i am only trying to become this.

if i was unable to answer you question then please let me know.
