PURIFICATION OF SELF

"He Indeed Shall Be Successful Who Purifies Himself" (87:14)

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM THE WORKSHOP

In the first day of the workshop your anger disappears and you enter into a state of peace and tranquility. You feel free and light and your view of life, people around you and the world transforms.

The next day you get rid off the burden of the past and the constrains the past imposes on your view of life. You get access to live in the present and create a new future. You have the power, freedom and self-expression to take any challenge that life throws at you and life is no longer a burden. Your view of life alters. You create a new you, surrendering to the will of Allah and choosing to be His representative. You purify your heart and truly get connected with Almighty Allah.

Third day you witness a whole new world around you by demolitioning (fana) your ego. You see life as simple with Truth prevailing and Falsehood perishing. You experience, love, joy, peace, happiness, contentment and bliss, a gift Allah has given you to experience and share with others.

Unless there is individual transformation
there will be no Universal Transformation.
Now we need a revolution, not for changing others, but to change ourselves

The spiritual weapon of self-purification, intangible as it seems, is the most potent means of revolutionizing one¡¦s environment and loosening external shackles. It works subtly and invisibly; it is an intense process though it might often seem a weary and long-drawn one. It is the straightest way to liberation. The surest and quickest and no effort can be too great for it. What it requires is faith.

I have traveled to many countries, attending seminars by world renown scholars such as Earl Nightingale, Dennis Weatley, Wyne Dyer and Deepak Chopra, amongst others. All these great personalities passed on information and their personal experiences. I always felt that there was a need to write a course for Muslims, based on Qur¡¦aan and Sunnah. Sadathullah Khan has done it. We have discovered talent that has the ability and method to transform people. My advice to all my brothers and sisters is to take this opportunity to learn the concept of La illaha illallah, the meaning of abundance and the meaning of unlimited possibilities.

I was deeply impressed by Mr Sadathullah¡¦s powerful presentation skills. His unwavering commitment to social revolution through transformation of individuals has touched the hearts of every participant in the workshop held in Dubai. It was a very edifying experience. As hours went by, he began to grow in me. Not only as a trainer, but also as an individual with a passion for making a positive difference to human lives. I have read somewhere that passion is love and anger combined. His moral indignation and anger at the near-total negation of positive re-enforcement in the lives of our Ummah and his profound love for them moved me deeply. Mr Sadath¡¦s grassroots level approach to training will do our Ummah a world of good in the long run and be instrumental in creating a massive tsunami effect in the Muslim society. Perhaps the lessons I took from the workshop are totally different from the lessons most others took. The three-day workshop has had a powerful chastening impact on me as a person and specifically as a Muslim trainer who deeply shares his vision of community transformation starting at the grassroots level.

I liked the workshop very much. It is unique and the best way of doing Islah and dawah. It is an easy solution to all the problems in the families. In life how oneself can do Islah? The remedy for this is in the workshop. Since the workshop has lot of merits, common man should attend it as well as learned persons, especially this will be very helpful for women. It has to be conducted in every city. I cannot express the merits of the workshop, only you will know when you attend it.

** Total transformation in my life! Past sixteen years I have been searching for what I have found today! Every word spoken was powerful; it opened my heart, mind and soul and affected me deeply forever. I will never be theame person again. Past 16 years, my life has been total disaster, divorce, and physically abused, violence. Single mother of two, every problem at work, home, health and finance etc... Realized today I was a "drama Queen" creating my own misery being depressed, sad, negative every day of my life But I was searching for answers, for help, to get out of this and today Allah (swt) has accepted that Dua. I am eternally grateful to Allah and shaikh for transforming my life. I have never felt lighter, happier or more hopeful than at this point! I have found the real, true me. A dynamic, motivating and inspiring workshop. Allah (swt) has truly blessed with a gift of inspiring others. Thank you very much! My duas are with you

** All praise be to Allah Tala for creating, guiding and assisting khan to do this lofty work. I am writing these few words to thank you for a life- altering experience, for the insight into understanding myself, for giving me the keys to unlock my own joy happiness and confidence. I was "STUCK" for 20 years of my life! I have enjoyed this workshop 1000%. I felt all the time that you were addressing me. I intended to continue to make all the inner changes Inshah Allah, Jazakallah-u-khairan. May Allah Tala bless you with good health, a long life and guidance to continue this lofty work. You are doing it excellently. Shukran.

** The workshop is mind blowing connection between psychology and Islam. It is really a wonderful, insight oriented different workshop. The style and coaching was impressive.

** Par-Excellence. The entire Ummah needs to participate in this workshop. You are at the right time in this chapter of Islam.

** I have done numerous workshops and I have attended numerous talks by motivational speakers, what I enjoyed about this workshop was bringing in the Islamic perspective into things. I also enjoyed the humour used and I felt the last day of the course was absolutely fantastic

The Three Day Discover Yourself Workshop conducted by A.W. Sadathullah Khan was held in Johannesburg on 22, 23 and 24 May 2009. Here some of the participants share their experiences after the Workshop

Fouzia: I got a deep sense of understanding, overwhelmed by the connection between Allah and self. My benefit was finding inner peace, calmness and acceptance. My family felt the presence of serenity and tranquillity and appreciated the calmness of language. On the last session I found Allah, I found peace- I know how to find him, Jazakallah Khair. The best workshop that I have been on so far.

Shazia: I had a difficult 16 years of marriage. I realised that I had interpreted many things and accordingly I was behaving. I have pushed him away by my behaviour. I have made it difficult and now inshallah, I will accept and not resist. May Allah help me.

Ayesha: I feel liberated from the past. I feel peace, harmony within me. My whole body resonates with a sense of peace and calmness. What the coach touched on is related to our day to day living circumstances. I enjoyed his unique approach.

Anwar: I have found Allah in my life. I will be the khalifa of Allah.

Qureshi: This workshop was a reminder for me. We knew all these things, but was in the background. This workshop brought it to the foreground. Before the workshop the conscience was dead and the nafs (Satan) was active 24 hours. After this workshop my conscience is awakened and I have ‘I care’ attitude and I feel more closer to Allah than to my nafs.

Zaynub: Before this workshop, I was stuck in a cycle of self- pity and blame. Blaming others for the ‘suffering’ and difficulty I was going through. Now, I have come to the realisation that I am the cause of my anguish. I accept that I cannot change negative people or situations in my life, but I can choose how I will respond to them and whether or not I will allow them to control the course of my life. Both my husband and I attended the workshop together and the difference in how we interact with each other and treat one another after only these 3 days of training is immense, so now inshallah, I look forward to a blissful future for us. Jazakallah, for a life changing experience. Excellent course material, as well as an excellent coach. A must –do experience for every Muslim, every human being!

Shazia: The second day’s experience was mind blowing. Very powerful and very spiritual. My six year old has noticed a big change in me, my language and I am more loving towards them and I got just as much love back. I was in a bad state, I had reached rock bottom before the workshop. Lack of energy, lack of self esteem and lack of strength to cope. After the workshop I am closer to my Allah and have truly discovered a peaceful life.

Yasmin: It has given me clarity to whole lot of problems and did away with many uncertainties. It has empowered me spiritually. Increased my faith. It has released positive energy. Before the workshop I felt very angry, depressed, and despondent. I kept asking the question why me? Why me? Every time some adversity struck me. It has reaffirmed my faith in Allah. My objective now in life would be more caring, loving, and respecting others as human beings. I will have more control of my life and make the right choices. I learnt to live in the real world and come out of the world of deception. I would like the rest of my family and friends to share in my experience.

Farzana: Before the workshop it was all about me, me and me! Selfish, selfish, selfish! I have not had such an enlightening experience in my life. I learnt so much about myself that I make dua that my language needs to change. I loved every moment that everything around me came alive. I saw people in the most beautiful way. I am always and will always be grateful for all that Allah almighty has bestowed on me and I am very very blessed that I have come out from darkness to ‘LIGHT’ may it stay that way, Ameen!

Ismail: I have transformed into a whole new me. The workshop opened up a new world to me. I learnt to accept things, not to judge, have learnt to love and forgive. My life prior to the workshop was a heavy loaded life, a mixture of anger, anger, anger, duality, hatred and selfishness. A life revolving only around me. This workshop is the best thing that could happen to me. I thank Allah for choosing me to benefit and I thank myself for willing to enter into a world of reality, a world of love, caring and enjoyment.

Moin: I have attended this workshop with my partner and it has improved our relationship. By working out differences with the knowledge this workshop has given us, I know we are going to have a successful marriage. The best workshop I have attended.

Tahirah: An awakening. A realisation that my life is what I am responsible for. The way I live, I am responsible for the consequences. After my father passed away I felt cheated and lost. I wanted to blame someone. The anger and fire within me caused me to affect a number of relationships in my life. I blamed everyone. I was looking for someone to tell me what to “DO” to make things better. I kept on asking Allah for peace. I realised now that Allah brought me here to realise that I am responsible and I accept it. It is not a punishment. I can no longer resist and I am accepting! I submit to Allah’s will.

Saleema: I have benefited from this workshop. I had been struggling with an issue in my relationship for a long time and I have found my answers. I feel light and free and able to be happy and continue in a positive way. I feel happy to be alive and who and where I am in my life, Alhamdulillah. Inshallah, my family will feel and see the change in me.

Farzana: Before the workshop I had a few issues and after the second day I felt “Yes I can get the answers”. My friends who attended the previous workshop said it was great but experiencing for myself was “XXXXX” I have no words. Thank you Sadath Sir, you have given me the tools, Inshallah I will use them in the right way. May Allah reward you in all our journeys.

Mubeena: I am attending the workshop for the second time. My life was a mess and I was a wreck before the first workshop. But my hijrah was not firm enough and I fell into abyss of despair and hopelessness. So I came crawling back. Now I will not step back, but instead leap across and I hope to move forward without looking back, for this will only make me stringer in my commitment to my future. May the Almighty bless you! Keep up the good work; I aspire to be like you one day!

The Three Day Discover Yourself Workshop conducted by A.W. Sadathullah Khan was held in Lenasia, on 6, 7 and 8 June 2009. Here some of the participants share their experiences after the Workshop.

Mohammad: I recognised that we have control over our lives by recognising our inner voice. I have stopped smoking cigarettes 20-30 a day (for 18 years) for the last two days of the workshop. I will inshallah never smoke again. Thank you Allah, Thank Sadath Bhai. Allah bless you!

Yusuf: My son attended the workshop in Durban and we had some issues with my son. Many issues were answered in the workshop. We made our conscious efforts to change our attitude and approach. The situation in the home became calmer and more harmonious. We felt it necessary to get the entire family to attend the workshop.

Farida: My life before the workshop was just ‘Animal’. I reacted to every action. I was living in my own space, in my own world of loneliness and self-centeredness and this led to losing my support from my husband and son. With reluctance I came and I thank my friend for inviting me to this workshop. Not for a million dollars I would have missed this workshop. My whole state changed. I feel very light, peaceful and happy. We need to change the value system of our community and I will try. The coach explained with clarity, with down to earth tone and an excellent, wonderful sense of humour. It was indeed a pleasure to be a part of this workshop. There was no judgment of how you should dress! I also admired the universality of values by showing the clippings, this proved the open mindedness. Thank you.

Osman: Before the workshop, I did not like the person I was, always angry, always right, demanding and disobedient. After the workshop I decided to change my life and saw people around me from a different perspective and I stopped judging them and I am happy to accept my faults and faults of others, I forgave everyone. Inshallah, from now, I do care about everyone in my life and every person Allah has created. Jazakallah for this workshop, it was really inspiring and life changing.

Zaheera: I am impressed at how we can apply simple aspects of the Islamic way of life to improve our lives. I was totally burdened with issues which created barriers and now I have removed them and literally feel liberated, happier and relieved. My relationship with my kids has immensely improved. Thank you for this ‘GIFT’.

Fatima: I found completion, contentment, peace, tranquillity, acceptance, forgiveness, calmness, no baggage/ burden, direction in life, love and happiness. I learnt that my way is not right, but Allah’s way is and if I apply it to my life, all my opportunities and doors will open. I learnt to accept myself the way I am and to accept others. I am now more loving, caring and compassionate. I am totally uplifted, completely inspired and will definitely want others to benefit.

Ayesha: In order to see, you need to remove the barriers/ veils. In order to live, you need to play the game and not be a spectator. I now see that there are two worlds, the world of falsehood and the world of reality. I have decided to choose the world of reality because it is only in this world that I will find peace and contentment, happiness and mercy that we are all striving for. The fears, judgements, hatred, envy, confusion and pain disappears when you shift your focus from duniya (self) to the world of reality of “I care” and focus on others. Today I see that the more I give, the more I get and the more I care, the more love I receive. Life is not about me, it’s about surrendering to my Creator and helping and caring His creations. Today I understand what it means to surrender to the will of my Creator.

Hina: I have really felt at peace and have been able to admire the beauty of azan and its actual meaning and the understanding. I have migrated from the world of falsehood to reality. I will accept what has happened and move on. I will love my children and my spouse always unconditionally. They will always have a place in my life but my submission will be to my Creator Allah and only Allah and to live in the moment.

Safia: My blind spots have opened to me and I realised that I am not the person I aspire to be. Nobody can change me, only I can take control of my life and with attitude, anything is possible. I will change my ways to make a difference to everyone’s life. I am now thankful to Allah for what I have in life. Jazakallah, for making a difference to me. I wish that everyone I know could be fortunate enough to attend this workshop.

Fahimda: Before the workshop, I lived a life full of anger, resentment, disappoi-ntment, depression, stress and blaming. I learnt that I was depriving my children, spouse and family of a happy life being the ugly person I was. The real problem was me. I was deaf, dumb and blind to the goodness of others. These problems were created by me. After the workshop I discovered the real me. The person I want to be is a grateful, kind, loving, helpful, trustworthy person. By declaring who I wanted to be I have created peace, tranquillity in my home. Before screaming or shouting at my child on the 2nd day of the workshop for messing the coffee, I caught myself, smiled and asked the child if he was hurt. I as a mother will not forget the loving way my child looked at me before answering no. He then asked if he could help me clean the mess. This is so different from the way I would have reacted a week or a day before the workshop. I have now become the mother, wife, daughter, sister, daughter- in- law, sister –in- law, cousin, and friend I always wanted to be. Shukran, for enlightening me, when I was in darkness. I think that the couples together should attend such workshops; many couples have problems that they cannot see and need guidance.

Rehana: This is the second time that I have attended this workshop. It was enlightening for me, my husband and my son. I attended a previous workshop and we checked on each other. We decided to send three of our other children for this workshop. It has brought a change in our way of thinking and acting. We hope to send two more children for the next workshop.

Ruqaya (8 Years): I was a rude, angry, stubborn child. After I came here on the second day I felt like a confident person and I felt happier. I have changed a lot.
