Ainul Faqar Ainul Faqr

If a barb and wire, well, ditch of sewage, high and low land and impurity, whatever comes in his front, he cannot judge if something good is lying ahead or bad. [Similar is the situation of Darkness of heart. When the heart of the human being has become dark, he cannot identify if something is good or bad]. That person, who manages to capture Nafs , he wins the gladness (and accreditation) of Lord and the Muhabbat of Allah Almighty. On the other hand, that person, who does not capture his Nafs , [it is as if he] pleases Nafs and Satan and has fallen in their love.

BAYT (COUPLET)

Dog said to the Nafs, "Do not do Sagbaani,

Do not follow Satan and do not do Shaitani".

Allah Almighty says: Did I not charge you, O you sons of Adam, that you worship not the devil. Lo! he is your open foe (36:60)

That person, who has inclination unto his Nafs, his whole heart becomes black (and dark) and neglectfulness arises in it. Moreover, when the heart and Nafs become one, the Ruh becomes weak and helpless. On the other hand, when the heart and Ruh become one, the Nafs becomes weak, powerless, deprived and submissive. And this Faqeer Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe says this that one Hidayat of Allah Almighty is better [and dominant over] thousands of Nafs and Devils. That heart, on which is the Mercy of Allah Almighty, it is on the other side against the Nafs and Satan. [That is, when Allah Almighty throws His Gaze of Mercy on someone's heart, the Nafs and Satan have no opportunity to gasp even if both have syndicate and all this at His disposal].

Allah Almighty says: You exalt whom You will and You abase whom You will. In Your hand is the good. Lo! You are able to do all things. (3:22)

Thus, the Nafs and Satan are God's Shareek (partners assigned to Allah by polytheists). He, who is Outcast (and banished), the Nafs and Satan have clung with him and he has gone astray.
