If
he wills to equal that person who has read, it is not possible [as these
Maratib cannot be achieved without learning]. These Maratib
are of him, who is Aalim of the Divine Words and upon
reading the Divine Words (Kalimaat e Rabbaani), the Nafs becomes dead
and Qalb becomes clearly living.
Allah
Almighty
says: Say (O Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
to mankind). "If the
sea were ink for (writing) the Words of my Lord, surely, the sea would be
exhausted before the Words of my Lord would be finished, even if we
brought (another sea) like it for its aid (18:109)
BAYT (COUPLET)
Who is there who can count the Names of Allah
Almighty?
Just write the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat)
in neat script (and visualize it).
The
Master of Visualization of the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat)
is Bey-Hijaab . Full Sawaab
of the part and whole is seen by him and enters [Sawaab] Bey-Hijaab.
After this he becomes honored with Didaar with the Hotness of the
Anwaar of the Didaar of Lord
. After this, he has to lift the load
of the Rabbani, Jabbaari and Qehaari. Here, only the body of the Kaamil
human only can work, which does not become perplexed (and turbulent) in any
condition. That is, every that Seeker, who becomes the Privy (and
insider) of the voice of the Roohani, he receives Ilhaam from the
Qurb of Rabbani (Divine). That Seeker, who does not trust
in the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat)
and the Order of his Murshid,
he is egoist, greedy and captive of the Nafs. The Course of Purity
does not come in his reach. The Seeker of this kind is discourteous, dissolute
(and barefaced) rather he is unblessed and stays deprived of the Marifat
of God and away of Tauheed. These are those Mataalib, which
signify the personal greed of the human being. If the Murshid
does not employ Tawajuh on the Outward and the Inward of the Seeker
and he does not become his Companion endowed with Taufeeq, the Seeker
can never reach unto his aims at any stage even if he spends his whole life with
absolute sincerity in the company of his Murshid and for many
a years the effect of hot, cold, potency and impotency (of a Mard)
and the Khauf (Fear) and Rija (Hope) continues to effect his conditions.
These Maratib are also of Conscientiousness (and observance) and
in one's own control. That person, who gives up vanity, the Name
Allah
itself becomes his guide and he reaches there wherever he desires, (and) his
ventures meet accomplishment. In reality, only he is the Seeker, who is with
Murshid by Jism Ba Jism (physically), Qalb
Ba Qalb
(cordially), Ruh
Ba Ruh
(Spiritually), Nafs
Ba Nafs
and the Haft-Andaam
Ba Haft-Andaam.
ABOUT ISTIQAMAT
AND KARAMAT: Uprightness
is called Istiqamat which implies that the Faqeer should remain
safe against unrighteousness and should never allow the taint of Nafs
and Satan
in him. It also implies that he should never be desirous of anything
else besides Allah. That unusual outcome that apparently seems impossible, if
that happens by the Aulia-Allah
Rahmatu-Allah Ta'ala Alaihim
, then it is
called Karamat and if such happens by a non believer, then it is called Istadraaj
. Since, in Karamat , there is possibility of the taint of the Nafs
that is why Istiqamat is above Karamat.
