Thus,
the only means and medium for the slave for reaching the Rightful Deity and the
only Key
for the Marifat, Qurb
and Wisaal
is the Zikr
of Allah
and of all the Azkaar, the Zikr
of
the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat )
is the most comprehensive and the most
superior one and the way of exercising the Visualization
is the superior most,
the highest, the most Perfect, the easiest and peaceful against the entire way
of exercising the Zikr. That is, writing and Inscribing the Naqsh
of the Name
Allah
with the finger
of Tafakkur
through thought and Visualization. In addition, the best of all the
Stations
for the Zikr
is the Station
of eye through which the gateway towards
the Didaar
and Mushahida
opens the prime purpose and the aim of the entire
Worships and Obedience, Riyazat
and the entire Injunctions and Fundamentals,
the Shariyat
, the Tareeqat, the Haqeeqat
and the Marifat
and of the whole
Salook
and Tasawvuf
is: Sighting, Liqaa
and Didaar
and no blessing, Degree and
Martaba
is superior and higher to the Martaba
of seeing the Didaar!
Hence,
the Seeker
of Allah
should assume the exercise
of the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ) and should
read the Ilm
of Didaar
from some Inwardly
Teacher and the Murshid-e-Kaamil
through the Visualization
of the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat )
. The entire
Maratib
of the Deen
and the World and all the physical and ethereal Founts of
the World and the Hereafter
are got in the Ilm
of Didaar
!
HADIS
(Saying of the
Holy Prophet of Allah
Hazrat
Muhammad
Sal Allahu Alaihe
Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
)
As for him, who
has his Lord
everything is of him!
The
Seeker, when, commences the Exercise
(of preoccupation) of the Visualization
of
the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ), Satan
bars his way of approach and
introduces this thinking in the heart of the Seeker
through Sneaking Whispers
and Khatraat
of multiple sorts that: this way of Tasawwar
(Visualization)
appears to have no gain and the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ) will not station
on the heart; it is just a wastage of the precious time if you give time to
this exercise; it would be a better option if you choose to offer some Wird
,
Wazaif, Nawafil, Recitation
of the Holy Quran instead because these things
carry a lot of Sawaab. Moreover, when the Seeker
becomes busy in the Outward
acts of Worship
and Obedience and day and night remains in his Sanctum busy in
worship, Zikr
, Recitation, Nawafil
, Paas-Anfaas
and the Habs-e-Damm
, then
the Satan
makes his occupation on the heart of the Seeker
which is the Real
Chamber
and the original epicenter of Zikr
.
*
Thus,
his tongue and other organs, though, remain engaged in the Zikr
Azkaar
but his
heart desperately wanders here and there distracted in different thoughts,
worldly Khatraat
and sensual temptations and leaves in his heart no way that
the (efficacious) effectiveness (and the impact) could pervade therein!
He
is offering Assalaat
(Prayers) but his heart is distracted,
Why
will that Essence, which is besought of all, accept this Assalaat?
Moreover,
Satan
makes him well known and famous amongst the other people as a very big
devout and religious person who keeps vigil (the nightlong) in prayers and
worship
and destroys his Reward by bewitching him towards the Rujuaat-e-Khalq
and slaughters him with the knife of self-conceit and arrogance. Such person
thinks that he has done much worship
and has covered a long destination walking
around same spot like the bull of oil mill but when he opens his eyes, he finds
himself where he started. When a person engages in Outward
Obedience, Zikr
Fikr
and Worship, the Khannas
occupies over his heart and Satan
laughs at him
standing near him.
RUBAEE (QUATRAIN)
O
abomination and vices (Fisq O Fajoor)! You are my daily practice,
And the pot of our heart is all full with the love for Dunya
(World),
So,
world is laughing at our such Obedience (and worship),
And
life is weeping over our such Assalaat
and Fasting.
[Khayyam]
Hence,
the Seeker
of Allah
should keep on doing the exercise
(of preoccupation) of the Visualization
of
the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat )
even in case the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat )
does not Station
on the heart in the start because a tyro Seeker
remains in
this misunderstanding that the Naqsh
of Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat )
should get established on heart through Visualization
and the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat )
should all the time remaining glowing in him so that whenever he inclines
towards his heart and sees it, the Name-Allah-the-Essence
(Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ) should be seen as
Imprinted and Inscribed.
