Ainul Faqar Ainul Faqr

Repentance of hands is this that he should not touch those things that are contrary to Shariyat and he should not touch the Outsider. And the Repentance of feet is this that he should not go there where the Islamic Code of life does not permit going. [How ironical this is that] the Aalim , Faazil (Learned), Qazi (Judge), Mufti (Religious Scholars) and kings do thousands of actions in the light of Shariyat but they fail to accomplish Muhaasba of their Nafs and killing it in all their lives! [Hence, he, who has done this, won the title]. Therefore, the Faqeers, day and night, stand their Nafs in Accountability (and answer) (Taffakhus) and keep on doing its Muhaasba. The Qazi (Judge) of Ishq gives the Sentence of Death to it and the Haakim (Executive) commands to put it behind the bars with its hands and feet tied in chains of Zikr and Fikr of Allah Almighty. In addition, the Shariyat of-Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam binds the yoke of Obedience and Compliance around its neck.

I feel surprise for those, who have given full freedom to their Nafs without any constraints of Muhaasba but command others to kill their Nafs.

His Noble highness our Overlord Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam said that: Such a time will also come on my Ummat (followers) that they will use to offer Assalaat (Prayers) in Masjids and will also use to recite the Holy Quran but their hearts will be empty in respect to Eimaan (Faith).

Too much pietism and a lot of Ilm are not obligations. However, it is Obligation that you must acquire Ilm, follow it by practice, and abstain from sins. Moreover, too much worship is not Obligation at all. Pietism and Ilm are compulsory for that person, who wards himself against sins. Otherwise, if a person offers Assalaat (Prayers) the nightlong and keeps Fasts daily and does not spare a single sin even, it means this that he is friendlier unto sins.

Hence, this high magnitude of worship will be vain for him. Consequently, it is found the Seeker of Ilm should not to acquire Ilm from the Teacher the People-of-Dunya because it has been said, "the effect of the company is sure".

Allah Almighty says: Call unto the way of your Lord with wisdom and fair exhortation. (16:125)

Similarly, one should not get Talqeen of Murshid the seeker of Dunya (World) the friend of kings or of lords of the monarchs because it will certainly bring its effect inside his body in due course.
