Assalamu'alaikum Hadhrat Sufi Ji,

I have looked at the preview of your script titled ‘TASAWWUF THE SPIRIT OF SUFISM’ and I am very grateful for the opportunity given to me to write some foreword for the book.

BISMILLAHIR RAHMAANI RAHIIM.

NAHMADUHU WA NUSOLLI 'ALA RASULIHIL KARIM,

AMMA BA'DU;

This humble and poor servant of Allah, Hadhrat Maulawi Jalaluddin Ahmad Ar-Rowi 'Ufiyallahu 'Anhu Wali Walidaihi Wali Jami'il Muslimin has been requested to write some foreword for this classic literature works titled TASAWWUF THE SPIRIT OF SUFISM by the ENLIGHTENED MASTER OF THE PATH HADHRAT SUFI TAOSHOBUDDHA.

May Allah sanctify all his secrets?

Tasawwuf is a realization process to clean the physical aspects of man from the all the bad qualities and lifestyles and fill it with all the good qualities and the lifestyles of the holy Prophet Muhammad Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wasallam and to clean the spiritual aspects of man from all the thoughts regarding the creations and fill it with the thought of the gratness of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, the ultimate creator.

For someone who wants to learn TASAWWUF, he or she needs to practize the SUNNAH of the Holy Prophet Muhammad Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wasallam into their daily life and fill your thoughts with the remembrance of Allah Ta'ala, the lord and the creator of the entire universe. This is the path of the Sufis which they struggled and sacrificed for it. Through their effort to explain about path, by the blessings of Allah Ta'ala the knowledge of TASAWWUF continues until today through their sacred literature.

No one can deny the truth of the spiritual aspect in human and the one who really understands about the selves and the creator of the selves is the Prophet Muhammad Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wasallam because he is the first RUH (spirit) that Allah had created, then the saints and the Sufis who really know and understand about the heart which is the reflection of the centre of the throne ('Arash) in the human heart. They are the people of the heart who connect themselves to the ultimate being whose secrets are above the throne.

Learning the path of the Sufis or the Tariqah is the key to reach the Ma'rifat (gnosis) of Allah's essence, qualities, attributes, names and actions, and by practising the path will lead the seekers to reach the Haqiqat (reality). Practising the path of the Sufis will enable the seekers to understand their sayings and uttering and to understand their poems or poetries is by understanding their sacred path.

The sayings are so beautiful that it touches the seekers heart. Allah's words are the most high above all the creations words that nothing can be compares to it and the Holy Prophet Muhammad Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wasallam's words are the best words amongst the creations. Other than that, are the poets who express their love and affections towards Allah Ta'ala the sustainer of the entire universe? Their words contain great wisdoms and teachings which enlightened the heart of the seekers for hundreds of years.

The book ‘TASAWWUF THE SPIRIT OF SUFISM’ is a great book for those true seekers who wants to grasp the knowledge of the Sufis and I am very thankful to HADHRAT SUFI TAOSHOBUDDHA for giving me this opportunity to write some foreword for this very valuable and precious book. May Allah grant the writer great reward for sharing the understanding of the Sufi poetries such as Hadhrat Maulana Rumi, Amir Khusroo, Kabir, Jigar Mooradabadi, Sufi RamChandra, Sufi Brij Mohan Lal, Janab Rattan Lal Hangloo, Janab Brij Narain Chakbas, Hadhrat Taoshobuddha etc.

May Allah shower us with his blessings through these MARAQBAS.
