Therefore
the Jihad
Fi Sabeel Allah
and Shahadat (martyrdom) is of two types: Outwardly
Physical and Inwardly
Spiritual. From his
"We have approached to Jihad e Akbar (Mujahida) from Jihad e Asghar (Muslim holy war against disbelievers)"
That is, 'now we have become free from the minor Jihad (Asghar) and have not to fight a major Jihad (Akbar).
The
Holy Companions Radhi-ya-Allahu Ta-aala Anhum
He said that 'Yes! This is a very big Jihad against the Dunya (World) and Satan till your last breath. This Jihad is far degree severe, arduous and the most awful because, first of all, this Dunya (World), Nafs and Satan are the very source of sending the Kuffaar and the Mushrikeen astray and invoking them for fighting and battling against the Muslims. Secondly, the physically existing Kuffaar and the Mushrikeen destroy the bodies of the Muslims and take away the worldly wealth and possessions. However, the Nafs and Satan destroys and ruins the springhead of the Eternal Life of the Muslims which is their lifeblood and soul and loots their original and eternal asset of Eimaan. Hence, since the Nafs and Satan are the original and the worst and the greatest enemies, thus, the battle against them and going against them is also Jihad which is Akbar (Greatest). Those, who get killed and are martyred during the Jihad e Asghar (Minor Jihad), they would be the Shaheed e Asghar (Minor Martyrs) of lower degree whereas those people, who would be martyred during the Jihad e Akbar, they deserve to be called Martyrs of higher degree. Therefore, the Rightful Slain in the Way of Allah and the Shaheed e Akbar and the Original Fighters against the Infidels and the Major Wagers of Jihad and the Superior Eternal Alive People are the Aulia-Allah and the Arifeen-Bi-Allah.
*
These
people, by remaining battling against the Nafs, Dunya
(World) and Satan for
their whole lives till death, achieve the Noor
of Allah
Almighty and the Baqaa.
That is why the Shrines of the Shuhada'a Asghar (Minor Martyrs) do not become
so much famous and recognized as are of the Shuhada'a e Akbar (Major Martyrs),
that is, the Aulia-Allah
which remain a place extensively visited by a great
number of people as a source of Guidance and direction. Their Tombs are
extensively visited by the pilgrims and a crowd is seen every day and night.
Their dust and places of the last rest are the sites which creatures feel honor
to kiss. Worldly kings and the elite feel pride in bowing at the Tombs of these
Aulia-Allah. It feels as if they are sitting with honor in their Courts behind
the delicate and Subtle
curtain and Barzukh. The grant the good tidings and
signs of getting the wishes of thousands of pilgrims granted and deliver them Beneficence
and blessings of different kinds. Many ignorant and dormant hearts become alive
through their Inwardly
Gaze
(Nigah) and Tawajuh
by the Zikr
of Allah
Almighty
and turn Mast
and soaked in the Wine of the Marifat
of Allah
Almighty. Some pilgrims
are those who bewail and cry without their self control. The Zeal
and Fervor
for Allah
Almighty get multiplied so much that days and nights of people are
passed in doing worship, recitation, Zikr
Fikr
and Obedience. In short, that
respect and esteem which these favorite and accepted bondmen of Allah
Almighty
is observed after their death, a minute fraction of this is not enjoyed by the
kings of the world in their lives. What Shrines are. As if these are the lamps
and candles of the Noor
of Allah
Almighty on which people fall like moths. Some
jealous blindfold people try to extinguish these lamps by means of the blows of
their useless complaints and grudge. However these lamps are not lit to be
extinguished at all as Saadi Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe
If time totally becomes gale [fast blowing wind of storm], even then the candles of the Preferred People-of-Allah (Ahl-e-Allah) cannot be put out. That candle which Allah has lit will not extinguish by him who will try to put it out by blow, But rather the beard of that person will get burnt in this event.
Allah
Almighty
Have destroyed, get destroyed, will all be vanished all the rivals of You, Has not vanished nor will ever be vanished Yours glorious Name. [Zafar Ali Khan]
