Muhikal Faqar (Qalan)

There is blight for everything and the blight for mankind is the Nafs.

Allah Almighty says: And he went into his garden, while he (thus) wronged himself (18:35)

And blight for Nafs is its greediness and the greed and Nafs do not part from man [as long as he does not discard greed] and as long as he does not choose Tark and Tawakul and the Tark and Tawakul are not gained without the 'mark of (the blaze) and the pain of the Muhabbat (Cordiality and Affection) of Allah' and the Zikr of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb does not bring its (efficacious) effectiveness as long as there is the Hidayat and the Tawajuh of the Murshid-e-Kaamil because the Tauheed and Tawakul are achieved through the very 'ache' of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah.

HADIS

(Saying of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam)

The sings of the Tauheed and the Tawakul are the same.

Immersion in the Nafi and Asbaat and the Name of Allah that is the Eternal Essence and the Unremitting Zikr of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb, provided that it is along with the recitation of the Holy Quran, these are the Maratib of the Master of Wisaal.

HADIS

(Saying of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam)

The Kalimah-e-Tayyeb Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah is the superior Zikr.

The Holy Quran is the Proclamation of Allah Almighty and the Order and the Proclamation of Allah Almighty is in current (and instant flow) since Azal till Abad and the Shariyat of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam is a running Ocean which is such a guide that fulfills everyone's desired quest and the Ism-e-Azam of Allah Almighty is the mercy but rather it is rain of His Fazal that is, the beneficial rain of Allah and the Name Allahare dominant amongst the Orders of Allah as Allah says:

Allah Almighty says: and Allah has full power and control over His Affairs (12:21)

About Tawakul: Tawakul means breaking relation with 'all that, which is besides Allah' and making relation with Allah. Tawakul has four Degrees, which are as under:

1.                   Earning the Halaal livelihood and eating Halaal (lawful and allowed) and providing Halaal to family and parents and expending in the way of Allah from this Halaal provisions and performing the Five Fundamental Elements of Islam. But this is the Tawakul of the ordinary persons.

2.                   Tawakul of Second Degree is, breaking ties with the creation and making ties with the Creator. This degree is achieved because of the Tawajuh of the Murshid-e-Kaamil. The love for the world ends from the heart of the Seeker due to it and he, on entering the garden of Tawakul, removes all thorns of greed (grasping) and the Nifaaq.

3.                   Tawakul of Third Degree is that the Seeker breaks ties with the entire creation and builds ties with the Creator and becomes His beloved, he always remains Immersed in the Remembrance of Lord, and Zikr-e-Khafi is gained by him that takes him to the Maratib of a Majzoob.

4.                   The Seeker after Immersing in the Noor of the Essence becomes eternally Absorbed in Noor and becomes Laa-Yuhtaaj after finding the Martaba of the godly (Ba-Khuda), the Waasil with Haq and the Absolute Noor. He is left with no want of anything or any dependency. This is the entirety of Tawakul that is the holy person of Lord of Worlds Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallamand is available to the Faqeers of his Ummat because of his means. Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam has said that: "Faqar is my pride and Faqar is from me [that is, it is my Sunnat]

ABOUT THE ZIKR OF Kalimah-e-Tayyeb (AND NAFI AND ASBAAT):

The Zikr of Kalimah-e-Tayyeb is the superior Zikr. It is the lamp of Selk-Salook of the Qadiri (Sufi) Order. It has three parts:

1.                   Through Laaa-Ilaaha, Nafi is realized. This Nafi is completely for all that, which is besides Allah.

2.                   Through the Ill-Allahu, the Faqeer is Drowned in the Wahdat and attains the Marifat of Ill-Allahu. With it, the Noori body gets that ability of flight that cannot be explained in words. He meets the Roohani by this.

3.                   Through 'Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah (Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam is the Prophet of Allah) is achieved the Hazoori of the Holy Prophet Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam which is the entirety (and perfection) of the Faqar.

However, just verbal recitation of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb, like a parrot, grants nothing except Sawaab as long as a Master of Kalimah-e-Tayyeb does not get the Seeker read it and does not tell him its Depth because he, who recites it with the Depth, reaches unto the highest degrees and gains this supreme blessing and thenceforth he does not say it through tongue but hears its recital from his Qalb. Hazrat Sultan ul Arifeen Hazrat Sultan Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe has said in his Punjabi couplets that there is no better elixir for heart than the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb. Only the Kalimah e Tayyeb is the most effective balm for the heart. The Kalimah-e-Tayyeb removes the corrosion of polytheism, Kufr, greed, desire, grudge, and vanity and jealousy etcetera from the heart and washes the pollution of the filth of Dunya (World) from heart. On the Day of Judgment, the Zikr of Kalimah-e-Tayyeb will be diamonds and rubies and jewels and the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb is the outlet of Marifat in the heart of the Arif, which has all balms and cures. O Bahu! Here and there, in both the worlds, just the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb is the whole world. (Explanation by Dr. K. B. Naseem Rh.)
