Therefore,
Allah
Almighty, who is the Real Goldsmith, discovered this indispensable
impurity of arrogance and Self-conceit, through His Ilm
of Azal
, in the carats
of the gold of the Angels and strictly banished the entry of the garment of
arrogance in His Sacred and Zealous Sanctuary (Court). Hence, in order to
purify the gold of Angels from the certain impurity and flaw of the arrogance
and Self-conceit, He desired to test the purity by heating it in the fire of
the abjectness of prostration with reverence and respect of Hazrat
Adam Alaihis-Salaam
and Ordered all that 'fall you prostrate before Adam (7:11)
. And this is
established fact that arrogance and abjectness are opposite to each other and
opposite things cannot unite. Further, everything is identified and tested in
comparison to its opposite
. Therefore, Allah
Almighty wanted to see and
test the gold of the knowledge and obedience of the Angels in the fire of
abjectness as an examination. All the Angels collectively threw the cloak of
arrogance and Self-conceit away of their shoulders and fell in prostration
before Hazrat
Adam Alaihis-Salaam
and since the accursed
Satan
possessed Impure (unholy) stuff and the impurity of arrogance and self
was fully stuffed into his nature and his body was tough and tightened by the
mantle of arrogance and ego, therefore, he could not bend for bowing and
prostrating himself and he openly refused. He demurred through pride, and so
became a disbeliever (2:34)
. In short, just because of arrogance and
pride, he became accursed and was banished from the Sanctuary. He had
prostrated himself before Allah
Almighty for hundreds of thousands of years and
had been claiming to be a Theist but he was becoming a partner of Allah
Almighty in wake of arrogance and vanity. Thus, this false claim of Tauheed
gave him no benefit and he failed in the practical examination of the Tauheed.
Just one spark of the fire of arrogance burnt the piles of his service of
millions of years down into ashes and he became the cursed one eternally and
became of the people of Hell.

Therefore,
O Seeker
of God! discard the shoes of unreal knowledge and obedience and humbly
and meekly enter the Sacred Sanctuary barefooted like Hazrat
Musa Alaihis-Salaam
(Moses) do not consider Ilm
and Grace and Obedience and Devotion. In His
treasures, such things exist in plenty and plethora. Allah
Almighty demands for
Abudiyat
and humility and humbleness and dependency (on Him) and He is the
buyer of this dear stuff.
Beware! When the wind of the Glory of His Needlessness blows,
The
worth of heaps of obedience and worship becomes as less as of a seed of barely.
HADIS-E-QUDSI
(Saying of Allah
reported by the Holy
Prophet of Allah
Hazrat
Muhammad
Sal Allahu Alaihe
Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
)
Crying
and weeping of the sinful person (in repentance and Fear) is dearer to Me
than the Hymns of My Praise by the Muqarribeen
.
O
poor sinner! Desperate not as when the light of sun spreads,
It
falls same on the hut of the poor as it falls on the royal palace,
If
a person is pauper and poor and without full dress in life,
This sun of the Sanctuay of Allah
also shines on him,
The day when the days of the poor will become even harder to pass,
The sinners will supercede all others in the Great Assembly,
Same as the egotists are unfit for the court of king,
Sobs and tears of the sinners are demanded by the Court of the Lord of Worlds,
Egotism is not suitable on this Course,
Feeble
bodies and broken hearts are needed on this Path.
