Healing Prophets

  The Timeline of Prophets After Nabi Nuh (Noah, AS): After the great flood during the time of Nabi Nuh (Noah, peace be upon him) , humanity was renewed through his descendants. As humanity spread and developed, Allah sent prophets as guides to ensure the preservation of monotheism and divine teachings. Nabi Ibrahim (Abraham, peace be upon him) holds a pivotal place in this timeline, often referred to as the "Father of the Prophets." Here's how his mission fits into the historical scheme after Nabi Nuh (AS). 1. Nabi Nuh (Noah, AS): Nabi Nuh (AS) was sent as a Warner to a corrupt and disobedient people. The Qur'an describes his long and tireless efforts to guide them: “Indeed, We sent Nuh to his people, saying, ‘Warn your people before there comes to them a painful punishment.’” (Surah Nuh, 71:1) Following the flood, humanity was repopulated through his three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. This marked a new era of human civilization. 2. Nabi Hud (AS): Sent to the peop...

Exploring the Teachings of Sacred Geometry, the Names of Allah, and the Connection to the Cosmos The story of Prophet Idris (AS), often associated with Thoth in Egyptian tradition, offers profound insight into the connection between humanity, the universe, and divine knowledge. Idris, widely recognized as one of the earliest teachers of writing, mathematics, and sacred geometry, introduced humanity to practices that connect us not just to the world around us, but to the very cosmos. The Teachings of Nabi Idris (AS) Nabi Idris (AS), known for his wisdom, is believed to have been the one who taught humanity the art of writing, mathematics, and sacred geometry. It was through him that early humans learned how to use sacred geometric patterns, which are inherently connected to the divine order of the universe. These patterns, including the shapes found in the construction of the pyramids and other ancient structures, are thought to have been passed down through sacred teachings, offering a...

  Prophet Idris: The Bridge of Wisdom Between Worlds In Islamic tradition, Prophet Idris (known in Judeo-Christian traditions as Enoch) is revered for his deep devotion to Allah and his immense contributions to knowledge and civilization. His wisdom is celebrated as being ahead of his time, with many ascribing to him the first use of the pen and the invention of various sciences. An intriguing aspect of Prophet Idris's legacy is his identification with Hermes Trismegistus, a figure in Greek and Egyptian mythology. Hermes Trismegistus is a syncretic figure combining the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth, both gods of wisdom, writing, and esoteric knowledge. This connection between Idris, Hermes, and Thoth reflects the shared reverence for wisdom and knowledge that transcends cultures—connecting Islamic, Greek, and Egyptian traditions. Idris’s association with Hermes Trismegistus highlights the remarkable convergence of cultures, all emphasizing the pursuit of wisdom and un...

An Account of Idris Allah says in the Holy Qur’an: “And mention Idris in the Book, surely he was a truthful man, a Prophet. And We raised him high in heaven.” (19:57-58) It is narrated by Wahab that Idris was a man of solid build with a broad chest. His body was mostly free of hair except for a thick covering on his head. One ear was slightly larger than the other, and his chest hair was sparse. He spoke in a soft tone, and when he walked, his feet would come together, revealing his gentle nature. Idris was a Prophet of immense devotion to Allah. He contemplated deeply on the vastness of Allah's creation: the sky, the earth, the sun, the moon, the stars—all evidence of Allah's limitless power. He was known for his unyielding conviction about the greatness of Allah and the importance of worshiping only Him. He took it upon himself to remind his people of this truth, warning them of the punishment for turning away from their Creator. At first, Idris only had a small following: se...

Prophet Adam (AS) and the Absence of Writing Prophet Adam (AS) stands as a profound symbol of humanity’s beginning—a journey shaped by choice, repentance, and growth. His narrative reflects the challenges of navigating free will and the human condition. But when viewed through a metaphysical lens, his story reveals an intriguing layer: the absence of grounding through written knowledge and structured guidance. Adam’s test in the Garden was not merely about temptation; it highlighted a deeper truth about perseverance. His lack of grounding left him vulnerable. Writing—when connected to divine knowledge—offers something more than documentation. It becomes a stabilizing force, an anchor that embeds wisdom into the heart, mind, and soul. Writing is transformative because it doesn’t allow truths to slip away; instead, it fixes them into permanence, giving us the spiritual weight to resist distractions and endure trials. The act of writing aligns the mind with purpose, much like dhikr or sac...

Contemplating the Legacy of a Prophet and the Divine Art of Creation Sacred geometry is not merely an art or science—it is a divine language, an intricate code that speaks to the Creator’s infinite wisdom. Its patterns, found in the cosmos, nature, and human design, serve as signs of Allah’s harmonious and balanced creation. But beyond its physical beauty, sacred geometry connects the material and spiritual worlds, urging us to recognize the divine order underlying all existence. A prophet, celebrated for his wisdom in astronomy, the mastery of the pen, and his insight into creation, is said to have left behind a legacy of sacred geometry. This connection demands our reflection: why was the pen—a tool associated with recording, creativity, and divine knowledge—emphasized so far back in human history? The Qur’an itself highlights its significance: "Read, and your Lord is the Most Generous—Who taught by the pen." ( Surah Al-Alaq: 3-4 ) The teachings attributed to this prophet ...

Exploring the Prophetic Legacy: From Idris (AS) to Sheeth (AS), and the Call to Monotheism Between Prophet Adam (AS) and Prophet Nuh (AS), several key figures were chosen to carry the divine message and guide humanity towards righteousness. Prophet Idris (AS), known for his wisdom and elevated status, and Prophet Sheeth (AS), the son of Adam, played significant roles in preserving the message of monotheism and virtue.

  Ziyarat of Prophet Adam (AS): Honoring the First Prophet and Father of Mankind In the rich tradition of Shia Islam , ziyarat (visitation prayers) play a crucial role in connecting with the divine and the legacy of the Prophets (AS). Among these, the Ziyarat of Prophet Adam (AS) , found in Mafatih al-Jinan , stands as a reminder of the beginning of human creation, the first revelation, and the ultimate purpose of humanity. Prophet Adam (AS), as the first human and the first Prophet sent to guide mankind, holds a unique and honored place in Islamic thought. His story, as described in the Qur'an, is one of creation, fall, repentance, and ultimate mercy from Allah. It serves as a powerful model of how humanity can begin anew, seek forgiveness, and return to the path of righteousness. Though there are no explicit ziyarat for Prophet Adam (AS) in the Qur'an, Mafatih al-Jinan offers a beautiful supplication for those visiting his grave or reflecting on his life. This Ziyarat of...

786 Returning to the Divine Path of Knowledge, Mercy, and Purpose through the Asma'ul Husna and the Lives of the Prophets (AS) Message to the Ummah: Realigning Our Lives with Divine Guidance SubhanAllah, when we reflect on the purpose and structure of our lives through the lens of divine guidance, Allah often opens our hearts to deeper understanding. This realization, grounded in Islamic teachings, calls us back to the essentials that have shaped the path of humanity—primarily the knowledge of the Names of Allah, the role of the Prophets (AS), and the value of knowledge itself. The Names of Allah (Asma'ul Husna) are not mere titles—they are key to our growth and understanding. These names reflect Allah’s mercy, justice, wisdom, and countless other attributes. When we internalize these names, they shape how we live, guiding our actions, our relationships, and our way of being in the world. By embracing these divine qualities, we align ourselves with the guidance that leads to a...
