Mthandiwe, mzalwane wethu,
Kukhumbula uNkulunkulu. Kuyalelo olucacileyo eQur’an.
(Al-Baqarah, 2:152),
(Al-Anfal, 8/45)
lezi zingenye nje zezindima eziningi ezikhuluma ngale ndaba.
Kukhona izinhlobo ezimbili ze-dhikr:
1. Ngolimi.
2. Ngokusebenzisa inhliziyo.
Ulimi luyisithuluzi nje sokuhumusha. Izikhumbuzo ezihlala kuphela olimini, uma zingafiki enhliziyweni, azibhekwa njengezikr. (Iz, Tasavvuf, 243) Ukukhumbula uNkulunkulu komlimi osebenza ensimini, umsebenzi wasehhovisi, umsebenzi wasefemini, kuyizikhumbuzo. I-Kur’an-ı Kerim iyabatusa laba bantu ngale ndlela:
(Nur, 24/37)
Laba bantu abanjalo. Izwe langaphandle nokuzibandakanya nalo akukuthunazi ukuthula kwabo kwangaphakathi. Baphefumulela ubunye ngaphakathi kwabo.
I-zikr, eyona nto iphambili kuyo yonke imikhuba yezindlela zokuzinikela, iyenza intliziyo ibe yingcwele. Iyenza ibe nentle. Iyenza intliziyo ibe ngumamkeli ovulelekileyo kwiimpefumlelo.
Ngiyabingelela ngithandazela…
