Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

Ya Ali Madad! On the occasion of the birthday commemoration of our first Holy Imam, Amir al-mu'minin, NOOR Mowlana Murtaza Ali (alayhi salaam) and in preparation of Imamat Day 2009, let us reflect upon the following verses of ginan:

Part 1: Teaching of Sayyad Imam Shah (r.a.)

In the third verse of ginan written by Sayyad Imam Shah entitled 'Eji Piyu piyu kijiye', there is explicit mention of reciting the name 'Ali', i.e., invoke the Light of Noor Mowlana Murtaza Ali (a.s.). As this light is manifested in the present and living Imam, we are also invoking NOOR Mowlana Shah Karim Al-Hussaini Hazar Imam (a.s.) when we perform the dhikr of 'Ya Ali'. :

Eji Chheh na dijê sâchâ sâiyânku
Ane dehi jo tukdâ thây
Damo dam Alinê jampiyê
Bhâi ek dam ere na jây
.....3
O Brother Do not forsake the true beloved
Even if your body is hacked to pieces.
Keep remembering Ali in every breath
and not a breath should be wasted
.....3

 

Part 2: Teaching of Sayyada Imambegum (r.a.)

The following lines are at the beginning of the ginan written by Sayyada Imambegum's entitled 'Eji Hardam Japo Pirshahnu(n) Jaap' in which there is explicit mention of reciting the name of 'Pir Shah'. In our Tariqah, the tasbi of 'Pir Shah' is also equivalent to reciting the 'Ya Muhammad, Ya Ali' tasbi because the Light of the Holy Prophet (s.a.s.) continues through the Light of the Pirs and the Light of NOOR Mowlana Murtaza Ali (a.s.) continues through the Light of Imamat. At the present time, NOOR Mowlana Shah Karim Al-Hussaini Hazar Imam (a.s.) is the Imam and the Pir of the Shia Imami Ismaili Nizari Muslims. Therefore, we are invoking NOOR Mowlana Hazar Imam when we perform the dhikr of 'Pir Shah'.

Eji Hardam japo Pir Shahnu(n) Jaap
Japta rahiye
O Brother Recite the name of Pir Shah abundantly.
Just keep on reciting.

 

Part 3: The Powerful combination of Ya Ali and Pir Shah

The lights of Allah, the Holy Prophet Muhammad (s.a.s.), NOOR Mawlana Murtaza Ali (a.s.), all the Holy Imams, all the Holy Pirs, Noor Mowlana Hazir Imam who is the Ali of this time, the Holy Qur'an and Holy Ginans are just one Light. Therefore, it is possible to call upon this all encompassing Light in innumerable ways. In order to clearly demonstrate this concept, let us imagine a mother who has a husband, a few children, extended family and friends. She could be addressed in a number of ways: by her first name, by her last name, by a nick name, or as mummy, mom, ma, aunt, auntie, grandma, etc. However, the love that she has for all her contacts is just one because she is just one reality with multiple names. Similarly, the all encompassing Light has innumerable names. We could call upon this Light by reciting the 'Ya Allah, Ya Ali, Ya Muhammad' tasbi. Another powerful option is to use the combination of 'Ya Ali' and 'Pir Shah'. We will use the latter combination for today's dhikr.
