21-412: In terms of Ihsan : The Uwaisī (or Owaisi ; Arabic : أُوَيْس ) silsila (chain of transmission) or tariqa (pathway) is a form of spiritual transmission in the vocabulary of Sufism , named after Owais al-Qarani . It refers to the transmission of spiritual knowledge between two individuals without the need for direct interaction between them. In the science of spirituality of Islam ( Tasawwuf )
42-721: A Shi'i branch of the Kubrawiya , was brought to the West by its shaykh, Shah Maghsoud Angha." There are two recent and distinct contemporary branches of the Uwaisi Order in the West following lengthy legal disputes between Shah Maghsoud's offspring. One is Maktab Tarighat Oveyssi Shahmaghsoudi, headed by Nader Angha, the son of Shah Maghsoud. The other is the Uwaiysi Tarighat, led by Shah Maghsoud's daughter, Nahid Angha and her husband, Ali Kianfar . The couple co-founded
63-456: A direction to each human being". This view is not supported by the majority of scholars, who translate yawm al-din as "the day of judgement". It has been said that the word Dīn appears in as many as 79 verses in the Qur'an, but because there is no exact English translation of the term, its precise definition has been the subject of some misunderstanding and disagreement. For instance, the term
84-616: A righteous person, a doer of good ( muhsin ), but a truly good and righteous person is both a Muslim and a true person of faith. Some Islamic scholars explain ihsan as being the inner dimension of Islam whereas shariah is often described as the outer dimension. Ihsan "constitutes the highest form of worship" ( ibadah ). It is excellence in work and in social interactions. For example, ihsan includes sincerity during Muslim prayers and being grateful to parents, family, and God. Din (Arabic) Dīn ( Arabic : دين , romanized : Dīn , also anglicized as Deen )
105-732: A sense of social responsibility borne from religious convictions. In Islam , Ihsan is the Muslim responsibility to obtain perfection, or excellence, in worship, such that Muslims try to worship God as if they see Him, and although they cannot see Him, they undoubtedly believe that He is constantly watching over them. That definition comes from the Hadith of Gabriel in which Muhammad states, "[Ihsan is] to worship God as though you see Him, and if you cannot see Him, then indeed He sees you". ( Al-Bukhari and Al-Muslim ). According to Muhammad's hadith "God has written ihsan on everything". Ihsan
126-534: Is also used in the sense of obedience, submission and allegiance". In addition to the two broad usages referred to so far, of sovereignty on the one hand and submission on the other, others have noted that the term Dīn is also widely used in translations of the Qur'an in a third sense. Most famously in its opening chapter, al-Fātiḥah, the term is translated in almost all English translations as "judgment": 1:3 مَٰلِكِ يَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ transliterated as "Maliki yawmi ad-Dīn i," and (usually) translated as "Master of
147-513: Is an Arabic word with three general senses: judgment, custom, and religion. It is used by both Muslims and Arab Christians . In Islamic terminology, the word refers to the way of life Muslims must adopt to comply with divine law , encompassing beliefs, character and deeds. The term appears in the Quran 98 times with different connotations, including in the phrase yawm al-din ( Arabic : يوم الدين ), generally translated to " Day of Judgment " or
168-588: Is derived from the name of Owais al-Qarani , who never met the Islamic prophet Muhammad in person, yet was fully aware of his spiritual presence at all points in his life. In Classical Islam and the Naqshbandi Sufi Tradition , by Hisham Kabbani , it is noted that: The sign of the Favor of Allah Almighty and Exalted on his servant is to authorize one of His saints to uplift that servant to
189-579: Is likely analogous to the Hebraeo-Aramaic cognate root. The Hebrew term " דין ", transliterated as "dīn", means either "law" or "judgement". In the Kabbalah of Judaism , the term can, alongside "Gevurah" (cognate to the feminine form of Arabic adjective " Jabārah جَبَّارَة "), refer to "power" and "judgement". In ancient Israel, the term featured heavily in administrative and legal proceedings i.e. Beth Din , literally "the house of judgement,"
210-459: Is often translated in parts of the Qur'an as "religion". Some Qur'anic scholars have translated Dīn in places as "faith". Others suggest that the term "has been used in various forms and meanings, e.g., system, power, supremacy, ascendancy, sovereignty or lordship, dominion, law, constitution, mastery, government, realm, decision, definite outcome, reward and punishment. On the other hand, this word
231-561: Is one of the three dimensions of the Islamic religion ( ad-din ): In contrast to the emphases of islam (what one should do) and iman (why one should do), the concept of ihsan is primarily associated with intention. One who "does what is beautiful" is called a muhsin . It is generally held that a person can only achieve true Ihsan with the help and guidance of God , who governs all things. While traditionally Islamic jurists have concentrated on islam and theologians on iman ,

Shaykh Muhammad Owais was granted permission of Uwaisia silsila directly from Muhammad in his court in Madinah in 1st Shaban 1434 AH (2013 CE) and Muhammad blessed this silsila with the name "Mohammadia Uwaisia" (or "Muhammadia Uwaisia" or "Muhammadiya Uwaisia" or "Muhammdiya Owaisia" ; Arabic : محمدئة أُوَيْسئة ).

273-467: The Sufis have focused their attention on ihsan . Those who are muhsin are a subset of those who are mu'min , and those who are mu'min are a subset of muslims : From the preceding discussion it should be clear that not every Muslim is a man or woman of faith ( mu'min ), but every person of faith is a Muslim . Furthermore, a Muslim who believes in all the principles of Islam may not necessarily be
294-532: The dīn that is related to religion in their list of foreign words, due to its lack of verbal root. The Arabic dīn "judgement, debt, etc.." has Semitic cognates , including the Hebrew dīn ( דין ), Aramaic dīnā ( דִּינָא ), Amharic dañä (ዳኘ) and Ugaritic dyn (𐎄𐎊𐎐). However, none of these cognates carry any form of religious connotations, further supporting the etymological proposition made by Arthur Jeffery. The Arabic sense of judgment
315-484: The 'Way' and its content are concerned". In many hadith, the din has been described as a midway lifestyle: Narrated Abu Huraira, the Prophet said, "Religion (Dīn) is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded; and gain strength by worshipping in
336-614: The Day of Judgment". The well-known Islamic scholar, Fazlur Rahman Malik , suggested that Dīn is best considered as "the way-to-be-followed". In that interpretation, Dīn is the exact correlate of Shari'a : "whereas Shari'a is the ordaining of the Way and its proper subject is God, Dīn is the following of that Way, and its subject is man". Thus, "if we abstract from the Divine and the human points of reference, Shari'a and Dīn would be identical as far as
357-585: The Divine Presence. That is why many saints who came in previous times were guides for those who came after through this spiritual (Uwaisi) connection. It is known that many saints have been under the guidance and training of prophets and other saints that lifted them up. Silsila Owaisi is an active Uwaisi Sufi order from the United Kingdom led by Shaykh Banaras Owaisi. They operate a charity and offer spiritual healing services. The "Uwaysi Order,
378-522: The Uwaisi Transmission occurs when the spirits of righteous believers ( saliheen , awliya ) meet in the world called `alam al-arwaah (the world of spirits) which is beyond `alam al-ajsam (the material plane). Whoever takes knowledge through spirituality from a master in `alam al-arwaah is called "Uwaisi". This means of transmission is considered as powerful and effective as the physical relation of master and disciple. The term "Uwaisi"
399-618: The ancient building block of the Jewish legal system. The Arabic sense "custom, usage" has been derived by classical and modern lexicologists from the Arabic verbal forms dāna ( دانى , "be indebted") and dāna li- ( -دانى لِ , "submit to"). Louis Gardet sees the Hebraic and Arabic senses as related through the notions of retribution, debt, obligation, custom, and direction, prompting him to translate yawm al-din as "the day when God gives
420-810: The famous verse "La ikraha fid din" which translates to "Let there be no compulsion in religion" ( Abdullah Yusuf Ali translation ). According to Arthur Jeffery dīn "related to religion" and dīn "judgement, debt etc..." are two separate words of different origin, he derives the dīn related to religion from the Middle Persian den , itself derived from the Zoroastrian Avestan notion daena . Most scholars, such as Nöldeke , Vollers , Mushegh Asatrian and Johnny Cheung are in agreement with this etymology. Others like Gaudefroy-Demombynes and Gardet , have found this derivation unconvincing. Nonetheless, Al Khafaji and Tha'ahbi have included
