ARABIC TEXT OF "ALFU S-SALAAT (A THOUSAND INVOCATIONS)"




WHO IS AL-HAJJI MA'ABDU NIANG? "1"
By: Sidi Mustafa Emmanuel Briggs

He (Al-Haji Ma'abdu Niang) was the first companion of Sheikh Ibrahim Niasse. He came from the Niang family and his grandfather was the teacher of Alhaji Abdallah niasse. He himself was a muqaddam of Alhaji Abdallah niasse. But from a young age, he was attracted to sheikh Ibrahim.
  
So, when Alhaji Abdallah Niasse died, he became a murid to Baye Niasse and took tarbiya (spiritual training) seven years before Sheikh Ibrahim announced the faydah. So, Sheikh Ibrahim in one letter called him "the AbuBakr of the Faydah and its Umar".

He was the first man to do tarbiya and his sister was the first woman. That sister also became the wife of sheikh Ibrahim and gave birth to one child only for him. His daughter, Sayyidah Ruqayya Niasse. And she was very close to Sheikh Ibrahim. She used to accompany him on his travels some times and he even sent her to Ghana and Sierra Leone to teach people on his behalf. Sidi Ahmad Dimson and others where all her students when they converted to Islam.

So he wrote the poem 'Alfu Salati' in praise of Sheikh Ibrahim.

He died early, probably 1944. He, Usman Ndiaye and another big personality...all died the same year. And Baye said that year was so painful for him, that only the dhikr 'Ya Latif' could remove the pain.



WHO IS AL-HAJJI MA'ABDU NIANG? "2"
By: Sidi Muhammad Abdullahi Al-Tijani Al-Ibrahimi

Shaykh al-Hajj Ma'abdou Niang (ra): The Sincere Disciple...and the 1st to receive the Illumination of Tarbiyya Baye Niasse...7 years BEFORE the public declaration of the Fayda!
  
Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse (ra) told his Khalifa, Al-Hajj Ma'abdou Niang (ra);

فإن من وجدت من تلامذتنا فهو تلميذ لك وما يجب عليّ فيهم يجب عليك
  
Meaning:
Whoever you meet among my disciples is your disciple too. My duty towards them, therefore, is also yours!

  

SHAYKH IBRAHIM NIASSE'S PRAYERS FOR AL-HAJJI MA'ABDU NIANG

In the Poetry titled; Rihlatu Kunakriyyah (A Trip to Conakry)

Interpreted from the Arabic by;
Imam Muhammad Abdullahi al-Tijani al-Ibrahimi

»Bi-ha Wa-jadtu Khabaran 'an Ahli 
Wa Dimnuhu 'Afiyatun lil-Kulli
»There (at Kankan) I received news about my family, 
I heard that everyone was in good health and prosperity
  
»Siwa Khalifati Ma'abdou fi Marad 
Idhhab Rabbi al-Latif dha'l Marad
»Except my complete inheritor Ma'abdou, who is ill. 
May my Lord, the Most Compassionate Al-Latif remove his sickness!

»Khayru Muridin wa Khayru Sahibi 
Wa Khayru Sihrin wa Huwa Khayru Talib
»He is the best disciple and the best companion! 
He is the best in-law and the best student!

»In Kunta Qad Akhadh'tuhu Far'hamuhu 
Wa'ghfir-lahu Ya Rabbi wa'l Takrimhu
»If You take his life {Ya Allah}, then have mercy upon him! 
My Lord! Forgive him and honor him!

»Wa 'Alamin Awladu-hu al-'Uluma 
Wah'dihim wa'rzuq-hum al-Fuhuma
»Teach his offspring [abundant] knowledge, 
and guide them and provide them with [comprehensive] understanding!
  
»Wa A'tihim Sirru al-'Imam al-Khatimi
Wa 'Umaru Najli Ajal wa Khadimi 
»Grant them the secret of Al-Imam al-Khatm {The leader & seal,
Shaykh Ahmad al-Tijani}, 
and {especially} my {spiritual} son and my servant, Umar!
