Hazrat Abu Anees Sufi Muhammad Barkat Ali Ludhianvi (QaddasAllaahu Sirruhul 'Azeez)

Darul Ehsan literally meaning “The house of blessing” is an Islamic institute, whose headquarters are situated in the district of Faisalabad, Pakistan. It’s founder, our beloved Sheikh, is Abu Anees Muhammad Barkat Ali (quduus sirhul aziz), who we affectionately refer to as Babaji Hazoor. Babaji Hazoor’s message for all of us is;

"O people! We have come to this world to earn for the life hereafter. Allah the Almighty has created us for His worship and everything of the universe for ourselves. Everything belongs to us and we to Allah the Almighty. This world is illusory, perishable and we are guests here for only a few days. We will have to leave our worldly wealth behind. We have nothing except our good deeds to take with us to the world hereafter. O people! Turn towards Allah the Almighty. This world and everything that it contains is temporary and only for a short time. It is subject to destruction. It will only last a few days. O people! We are not going to live here forever and nor are we to return. Everything that belongs to the world will be left behind. We can take none of it with us. We have come to the world in order to earn for the next ever-lasting life. What ever we sow here we will harvest there. O people! Fear Allah the Almighty do what is commanded and shun what is forbidden. Allah the Almighty has emphasised the importance of Salat / Prayer. Let no worldly job stop you. Give your Zakat whole heartedly.. Pay your due in full and make sure it reaches the needy people. O people! The creation is Allah the Almighty's family. Be kind to the family of Allah the Almighty. Seek the pleasure of Allah the Almighty in the service of his creation. Let unity, understanding, love and brotherhood flourish among the Islamic nation."
