Turn Your Compassion Into Hope

By supporting the poor and vulnerable, we not only fulfill our religious obligations but also create a compassionate society based on justice, empathy, and care for others. Let us embrace the teachings of Rasool Allah by actively engaging in charitable giving and supporting charitable causes, thereby working towards a more harmonious and stable world.
Mehboob e Yazdani
Now in English
It is with utmost humility and gratitude, that we acknowledge the honour of having received Ijaazah (spiritual permission) from my esteemed guide and mentor, Pir-e-Tariqat, Hazrat Maulana Sayed Qasim Ashraf Jilani Jaïsi (Hazrat Hasan Mian), a distinguished luminary in the noble Ashrafi Sufi tradition. It is through his guidance and blessings that I humbly present this English version of Mehboob-é-Yazdani, which coincides with Sheikh-é-Tariqat’s Centenary (100th) Birth Anniversary. It is to be noted that this work is based on the Creole translation of Bhai Saheed Mayghun Ashrafi from Mauritius.
