Mystical Secrets of the Last Days

After carefully reading this book, one would actually expect only positive reviews coming from Christians and Muslims alike. This is supposed to be a Sufi text from a Grand Master of one of the most well known Sufi Ways. So understandably, the Sufi views of Prophets, God, Apocalypse etc are presented. Islamic and Sufi belief is that Jesus (Peace be Upon Him) wasn't crucified but God in His infinite Mercy and Love took him up to the heavens. And that he is supposed to return at the end of the world (which will come soon according to the book) to rule over the believers in a Golden Age lasting 40 years! Sure there are differences of texts and interpretations, but a real lover of Jesus (like myself) must not be offended by this!The Bible itself contains directives of war and killing in the way of God (Deuteronomy 20:13-14), which proves that earlier Prophets did fight.But to be fair, the book is not even concerned with these issues! It is actually an informal account of a conversation between some Hindu and Yogy (believe it or not) mystics and the Sufi Grandmaster deep in the beatiful Alps monutains in Switzerland, about the coming war between good and evil. I found the descriptions to be strikingly similar to Biblical ones. Moreover, the prophecy says that "Believers" (who may belong to any religion) will survive Armageddon and not necessarily those who are Muslims by name! In fact the audience in the book were entirely non-Muslim and they were given tremendous glad-tidings and hope of a Golden-Age promised to the "Believers"!The book contains pearls of wisdom and it calls for a prejudice-free mind to collect them. Let's shed our misgivings and reap the harvest of true friends of God!

Despite the advances in technology and science, the collective knowledge of the 21st century seems to shed little light to what makes us humans genuinely happy. This masterpiece, Mystical Secrets of the Last Days, contains beautiful insight and wisdom on lasting happiness and inner peace. The book penetrates into one's unique inner realities, and provides elegant solutions to problems plaguing our society. It gives the feeling that volumes of analysis and sophisticated knowledge are summarized and translated into a few pages that can be understood by the average person. The reader gets the soothing reassurance that the author is speaking directly to her/his personal situation with loving devotion.Each chapter generates a high level of certainty in the reader's heart that the wisdom of the author Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani is truly extraordinary. The reader discovers that the answers, we all have been yearning for, were actually hidden in our hearts. These sought after answers come out during the process of reading Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani's magnificent work. Sincere effort to understand the wisdom in this book is going to quench the ever increasing thirst in all of us for true happiness, God Almighty willing. I highly recommend reading this outstanding publication.

This book is not what I expected it is not a book actually authored and written by the Shaykh but rather a transcript of conversation he had.Although I have deep love for the Shaykh he was a true genius and probably mastered more than any other Ulama in the past 100 years. And regardless of the things in this book must still be respected.However this book is some what confusing at times. It rarely speaks of the last day but does have some talk about it. Also the entire book is conversations between the Shaykh and a group of Hindus. And this is why I'm confused as it seems he is telling the Hindus they're on the right path and religion. Instead of calling them to Islam,...etc maybe I'm just misunderstanding his words or maybe my knowledge and understanding is to little however it confuses me.

I havebt read the Book yet, but went through its very thin and perfect for a shirt read. I find these books helpful as I happen to read them again for the knowledge needed SubhanAllah.

Opens your mind to the reality of the last days . Wow truely amazing deep and mind blowing book that is worth a read by those who are on the true spiritual path. Allahu Akbar.

Must read for all
