AHMAD DABBAGH

The Litanies of Shaykh Ahmad Ibn Idris

BACKGROUND
An incident between
Sayyiduna Ahmad Al-Khidr ‫قدس سره العزيز‬

& Shaykh Ahmad Ibn Idris ‫قدس سره العزيز‬

Shaykh Ahmad Ibn Idris became, in his own words, “a firm adept on the path” at
the hands of his Shaykh, Shaykh Abul Qasim Al-Wazir. After the latter’s death,
Ibn Idris saw the Prophet Muhammad ‫ ﷺ‬and Al-Khidr in a wakeful state. The
Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬ordered Al-Khidr to implant in him the adhkar of the Shadhiliyya
order, which he did in the presence of the Prophet ‫ﷺ‬. Then the Prophet ‫ﷺ‬
turned to Al-Khidr and said,

“O Khadir, teach him that which combines within it all the adhkar, sala-
wat, and prayers for forgiveness, and is superior as to reward, larger as to
number, more exalted in worth and greater in obtaining assistance.”

Al-Khidr asked him ‫ﷺ‬, “What is that, O Prophet of Allah?”

Then, the Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬said the prayers that would become the supplications of
Ahmad Ibn Idris, and Al-Khidr repeated them, and then Ibn Idris repeated them
after the both of them.

Then the Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬said:

“O Ahmad, you have been given the keys to the heavens and earth, which
are the dhikr, the salawaat (on the Prophet), and the prayer for the for-
giveness of sins. If you say them once, they are equal to the world and
what is in it many times over.”
