Refuting Nazim Al-Qubrusli

[Ismail Dalbani]

The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, said:
"There are people whose skin is the same color as ours, who speak the same language as we speak, they mix correct matters which you know with bad matters which you denounce [they mix the correct statements with the deviated ones]. They stand by the gates of Hellfire inviting others to enter. If one listens to them, they push him in."

It has been confirmed that the man by the name Nazim al-Qubrusli, has mentioned matters, which explicitly contradict the Book of Allah, the Sunnah of the Prophet, and the consensus of the scholars (ijma^). These matters were refuted by many shaykhs and scholars in our time, and have proven that al-Qubrusli, in reality, is a man whom the Prophet warned against in the Hadith stated above.

Among the misguided statements he mentioned, was what was written in his book Mercy Oceans, on page 6, in which he says: "The orders of the Qutb (supreme sheikh) are the orders of Allah, and his will is equivalent of Allah's will."

This is what he said, and Allah tabaraka wa ta^ala said:
{ وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ } Surat al-Ikhlas, ayah 4 means: And nothing is similar or equal to Allah.

In that same book on page 9, al-Qubrusli similarizes the Queen of England to Allah by saying: "Allah Almighty called Muhammad (peace be upon him) to His Divine presence, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) went as ordered, just as a dignitary is received by the Queen of England."

Allah said in Surat an-Nahl, ayah 74:
{ فَلَا تَضْرِبُوا لِلَّهِ الْأَمْثَالَ } Which means: Do not claim anything similar to Allah.

In a book authored by his shaykh, Abdullah al-Fayiz ad-Daghistani, named al-Wasiyyah, in which al-Qubrusli translated, they mentioned in reference to the last verses of Surat al-Baqarah: "The one who recites this verse once wins a high degree and a great status, achieves security and safety in this life and the Hereafter, enters the circle of safety of Allah, receives all the grades and statuses of the esteemed Naqshabandi Tariqah and attains that which the prophets and waliyys have not attained and wins a status higher than the status of Abu Yazid Al-Bustamiyy [a great waliyy]."

Allah ta^ala said in Surat al-An^am, ayah 86:
{ وَكُلًّا فَضَّلْنَا عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ } Which means: We gave every prophet merit over the rest of the creations.

These are few of the many sayings said by al-Qubrusli, which further indicate his misguidance, and thus, should be warned against, he is standing at the gates of Hellfire ready to push anyone who follows in his path.

Some may say this is not true, he did not say that, but you may open his books, and listen to his speeches for yourself. Others might say "He could have meant something else." His misguided statements were repeated many times in his books, and in different ways, to further confirm the meaning he is attempting to convey. He was also approached by many people regarding some of these statements, and to that, his response was "Do not question the shaykh," He also mentions numerous times in his books how the shaykh should never be questions, even if what he is saying is wrong, you follow without question.

This is the bulls-eye of misguidance. This is the center of deviance. Regardless of how one may defend these statements, the proof against them is irrefutable.

May Allah ta^ala protect us from such misguidance, and strengthen us in denouncing, refuting, and properly fighting the people of misguidance.
