IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE BENEFICENT, THE MERCIFUL.

All praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds (1:2) and lo! the good end is for those, who keep their duty (unto Him) (7:128) and Darood and Salaam be upon Holy Prophet of Allah Almighty Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam, on his Progeny, on his Holy Companions Radhi-ya-Allahu Ta-aala Anhum altogether.

PROOF OF THE EXISTENCE OF ALLAH ALMIGHTY

Since the time of the very creation till today, when we think about a general and universal belief of the nations of world regarding the Almighty God, we, by this and that, have to accept that the human being is attached with and belongs to this hidden and invisible Essence of his Real Creator through a most hidden Inwardly relation. All the people of the higher and lower class from the uppermost liberal scientist and philosopher to a plebe savage Bedouin all adhere in opinion about the Supreme and the Most Exalted Entity of this Sanctified Essence, the Reality with Perfection (and Attainment), Jalaal and Jamaal and the Master of the Ability and Wisdom with Pure (holy) Substance. His Name is stamped on everybody's heart and His remembrance is To'an Wa Karhan (by will and by force) present in every mind. Perhaps, the matter of the human being has been kneaded with His Remembrance and the Aab-e-Hayaat (Elixir of life) of the Zikr . And his disposition and instinct has been leavened with the Name of his Creator. Of Course, the mud of Adam Alaihis-Salaam has been kneaded with the limpid wine of the Name-Allah-the-Essence (Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ) the Masti of which each heart is drunk and every brain is frequented (and thriving) with its intoxication.

Last day I saw Angels opening the pub (of Marifat ), who made a goblet  with the kneaded clay of Adam,

[Even heavens had shrunk from bearing that Trust which was destined to me by draw!]

That learned philosopher who has given the title of 'the prober of Haq (the Absolute Truth)', verily his entire Ilm has totally found the human reality and this saying of some poet that 'we have come in entity from nonentity for the search of the Friend' is completely correct. In short, the belief of the Existence of Allah Almighty, the Essentially Existing Essence Whose Non-Existence is Impossible (Waajib-ul-Wujood ), is so much widespread, natural and universal that the denier of this belief rightly deserves to be called stupid and insane. This boundless and strange and wonderful Craft of earth and heavens is fully signifying its Real Crafter. This disciplined works is openly crying to tell (about) its Craftsman of the Azal. When we gaze upon this disciplined universe, we find its entire principles based upon perfect Ilm and Hikmat . Each and every part of the mechanism of this world is working under a dominant force and according to an outstanding Hikmat. So much so that each atom of the solid and dead Stationary stones is established on a very useful and preset rule and is bonding with the others (atoms) and each leaf of the unconscious trees is moving according to a firm rule of nature. After seeing this faultless discipline and order of the Ability and this nonstop abundance of nature, every wise heart is compelled to acknowledge this Hakeem (The Wise) and Aleem (The Knower) Essence with such calibers and every eye that has sight is spellbound by the Everlasting Jamaal of that Real Producer.

Each leaf of the green trees, in the sight of the wise,

Is a page of the archive of the Marifat of Lord!

[Saadi Sherazi]

In this Craft of the Creation of Allah Almighty, upon seeing so much discipline and order and the faultless continuity, the human wisdom becomes lost in great astonishment and surprise (Istanjab) and intellect and inference feel disable and stunned. No inaccuracy, even a minute one, is observed. No doubt for any indiscipline is felt anywhere. Neglectfulness and carelessness, even of a trice, from instruction and caretaking is not done. How complete and regulated system it is! How strong and proficient arrangement this is!
