Heaven on Earth. We call it Heaven on Earth because every ceremony below is performed with a lot of happiness. It's not just the physical body that feels the joy, but it's the heart which especially feels the excitement and roaring sound of the heavenly drums that arouse the senses to feel the joy of Love, which is granted to us, His creation, every moment. Heaven is the Divine Happiness dreamed by every creature. And this Heavenly happiness is what we feel all the time.

Is a gift from Allah SWT to Sayyidina Abu Bakar As Shiddiq ra because of his love for Sayyidina Rasulullah SAW whom he loved more than he loved himself. This gift was granted to Sayyidina Abu Bakar As Shiddiq ra at the Cave of Tsur . He was the only companion who never doubted or questioned Sayyidina Rasulullah SAW. He submitted his whole body and soul to Sayyidina Rasulullah SAW when they met for the first time and he pronounced the Syahadat “ Asyhadu an lailaahaillallah wa asyhadu anna Muhammadan abduhu wa Rasuluhu “. His strong believe in the Truth brought by Sayyodina Rasulullah SAW makes the dzikir Khatamul Khawajagan as the Recitation of the Masters. This is the dzikir with the highest honor in the name of Divine Love.

Dzikir Khatamul Khawajagan consist of prayers to lead us to feel the True Love and the Real Happiness.

Known as the ceremony to welcome Sayyidina Rasulullah SAW during his time. Hadrah had always been a very festive celebration performed with full happiness for the Love of the Most Beloved of Allah SWT. The beautiful Salawat ( to invoke blessings and peace on the Prophet SAW ), with movement and reciting aloud “ Ya Hayy “ which means “ The Ever Living “, is meant to awaken the spirit or spirituality that has been asleep for too long and is controlled by the ego. When the spirituality is aroused, the real Light of Life or Divine Light illuminates every person doing the Hadrah. Real happiness emanates from the heart, coursing through the senses to fill up the spaces that feels empty for too long. Movement of the arms and reciting aloud Ya Hayy is to get the word “Hayy” to reach the whole body to awaken every cell in the body to the love of returning back to Allah SWT and Rasulullah SAW.

Hadrah is performed almost everyday and also after the regular weekly Dzikir at Rabbani Sufi Center .

Narrating the life story of Shaykh Bahauddin Naqshband and Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jaelani in their journey seeking the Divine Love. These stories are from old scriptures, narrated every month on the 10 th of the Hijriah. Manaqib is meant to convey spiritual message to the audience and to share the taste of Love felt by the two great Shaykhs. And the most important part of the reading of Manaqib is the enormous Transmission of Love. Narrating the life story of Shaykh Naqshband will generate spiritual strength or Divine Love. And reading the life story of Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jaelani will help us to accomplish our wordly necessities without producing impression on the heart for wordly desires.

The perfect conduct / adab during Manaqib is for the audience to concentrate fully and to listen attentively. To be able to comprehend the message of these beautiful Love Stories, the audience is advised not to talk during the session, not to drink and eat or make too much movement. These personal activities would create negative impact on the person and also can distract others. The good conduct / adab should be kept during the whole narration in order to avoid distraction of the spiritual transmission.

Birthday Party

We should have strong faith that life is always full of happiness which God grants us through every event. One of the occasion that is always filled with happy laughter is the Birthday party. There is always someone to be congratulated and others to share the happiness. Singing happy birthday and other cheerful songs is a symbol to show how grateful we are for all the beautiful blessings and enjoyment He grants us. Blowing candles reflects our sincere appreciation for our destiny, and cutting the birthday cake shows our gratitude for the Blessings and Love He bestows upon all His creation. The occasion is always filled with happy smiles and cheerful laughters. This is a reflection of Divine Happiness which we actually experience every moment but we rarely or almost never realize it. Rabbani Sufi Institute of Indonesia is a foundation which share the happiness and takes part in the celebration of birthdays. For God create us to be happy for all His Blessings He bestows upon us.

Loosing oneself and tremendous yearnings are emotions felt by a lover. Wherever the lover's see, wherever a lover's be, he could not see himself. Only the loved one who appear before him. Because for a true lover there is no one other than his beloved. All the praises flowing like water filling up the universe would not be enough, because the fragrance of the loved one endlessly flooded the soul devoured by longing. Only You all that I can see! Only You that all I can hear! Only You that all I can feel! O, Lover!

The benevolence of the Most Loved Devotee , Grace to the universe;; Sayyidina Rasulullah Muhammad SAW has made all creation so colorful and beautiful. This beauty deliver happiness and joy to our heart. The joy of beauty made Allah SWT give shalawat (praises) to His most Benign Devotee. A Happiness that cannot be described. ”Allahuma sholli wa sallim wa barik 'alayhi wa 'ala alih” (Dear Allah give us Your highest place, bless and give peace to Sayyidina Rasulullah Muhammad SAW and his family ). The ages-old poem of shalawat that sing praises to Sayyidina Rasulullah Muhammad SAW is an expression of yearning, gratefulness and love that are almost inexplicable, this verses are written by Sufi poets whose entire life are intoxicated by the Gentle Love of The Most Beloved Lover Sayyidina Rasulullah Muhammad SAW.

Accompanied by musical drumming, the shalawat chant becomes lively and filled with energy. The reading of the verses series that tell stories about the birth of Light Source of all existence and non-existence;; Sayyidina Rasulullah Muhammad SAW ”Mawlid ad-Dayba'i” is held in Rabbani Sufi Institute of Indonesia every Thursday on 20.00-22.00 local time.

Whirling Dervish is well known as the “ Dance of Love of the Sufis “. This dance was first introduced by Sayyidina Rasulullah SAW to Sayyidina Abu Bakar ra which later was made popular by Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi. This dance is performed in the name of Love, with Love , and to transfer Love. Surrendering fully and having strong faith are two basic things required in performing the dance. Because only by possessing these two requirements, the dance that is whirling from right to left ( moving anti clockwise ) will create strong whirling of the feeling of Love and happiness which will be transferred from the dancer to the entire room and the people around. At such moments we will feel the Unity between creation and the Creator. Realizing that the Creator and His Creation can never be separated ever, that they are always bounded together as lovers.

The movement from right to left symbolizes the movement of all creation in the universe. Billions of planets, down to the small molecules and atoms move anti clockwise from right to left, rotating on its axis without crushing into each other. This reflects the enormous great Power of the Lord upon His creation, where not one movement can happen without His permission. All this is a Sign of His Love and Mercy on His creation.
