As-Salam Alaykum dear beloved ones, Many great Awliya-Allah have mentioned that an immense number of Bala (calamities) descend on Mankind on the last Wednesday of this month of Safar. Our Master Sayyidina Ahmad Tijani (RA) has also confirmed this. There is also a special Salah that Sayyidina Shaykh (RA) would perform on this Wednesday to ward off these calamities (as mentioned by Sidi Sukayrij in the Jinayat al-Muntasib). This Salah had been practiced by the Shaykhs descendants and by the special ones in his Tariqah for generations. Shaykh-al-Islam Sahib-al-Faydah al-Haj Ibrahim Niasse (RA) has given permission to all his disciples to perform this prayer on the last Wednesday of Safar (as mentioned by Shaykh Abu-Bakr Atiq in Miftah al-Aghlaq). Mawlana Shaykh al-Imam Hassan Cisse (RA) had also advised his murids to perform this Salah. Note that non-Tijani saints have also performed this Salah, but did not know about reciting the blessed Jawharat al-Kamal in the end (See the Jawahir al-Khams). The Salah is performed with the intention of seeking Allahs Mercy in warding off the 360 (or 360,000) calamities that land on this day. The Salah should be done on the morning of the last Wednesday of Safar (which would be the coming Wednesday), before Zuhr time. This is how it is done: A- You should perform a 4 Rakah prayer (like Zuhr or Asr). In each Rakah, you recite: 1 Fatihah, 17 Kawthar, 5 Ikhlas, 1 Falaq and 1 Nas. B- After finishing the Salah, you recite Ayah 21 from Surah Yusuf 360 times. The Ayah is: WalLahu Ghalibun Ala Amrihi walakinna Akhthar an-Nasi La Yalamun Read it 300 times first, then 60 times C- Thereafter, recite the Jawharat al-Kamal 3 times, ending it the way we end the Wazifah (with InnaLlaha…etc) D- Make Dua for yourself and everyone. Do note that the Prophet (SAW) was very ill in the month of Safar and he (SAW) passed away from that illness. Therefore, the month of Safar is a very difficult one for all believers, as we all carry his inheritance. After it is the month of blessings for Mankind, Rabi al-Awwal. However, the night is the darkest before Sunrise, so understand!
