Irfan (Volume 1) IRFAAN 1

131-132

The Beauty and Magnificence of the Name Allah has seized my soul and heart both,

And the sweetness of the Holy Water of the Name Allah has quenched thirst of my thirsty lips,

You should rest assured that you are companion of Allah Almighty,

When the Visualization and Thought of the Name Allah are your companion,

Flying in the heavens of the sacred realm is easy for you,

Provided you fly with the wings of the Name Allah,

Since no difference is in the Ism (Name) and the Musamma (the Essence of Almighty Haq),

Therefore, you should see the perfection of the Name Allah in the Self-Disclosure of the Names.

In short, the whole universe is surrounded by and covered by the Name-Allah-the-Essence (Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ). He, who achieved this Ism, it is as if, the Key to conquest the whole universe has been got by him and he conquered the entire universe. What is Name Allah? It is the Nemul-Badal (substitute) of the Order of Kun {Be! (36:82)} by Allah Almighty for the creation of the whole universe. That is why it has been said that 'saying the Name Allah by the Arif is equivalent to saying the Order of Kun by Allah Almighty'. That is, same as Allah Almighty creation the entire universe by saying the word Kun {Be! (36:82)}, same like this, the Arif , for whatever affair says the Name Allah, that job surely comes into action sooner or later!

When the human being remembers Allah Almighty with His Ism-e-Zaati (personal Name), it is as if, he is remembering Allah Almighty with His Collective Sifaat or with the entire verses in the Holy Quran as we have aforesaid.

And this the Promise of Allah Almighty that 'Therefore, remember Me, I will remember you (2:152)'. Thus, our remembrance of Allah Almighty is evident that we remember Allah Almighty through tongue or in heart and thought but how does Allah Almighty remember us in reciprocation and exigency as per His Promise and in what way He gives reply to our Zikr and what is its form and nature? We today explicitly describe this covered inside secret. When the slave (Banda) remembers Allah Almighty with His Name and the Ism e Sift (qualitative Name), Allah Almighty sends His Tajalli towards His Slave with the same Sift (Caliber) and same Name.

Allah Almighty says: I answer the prayer of the suppliant when he cries unto Me (2:186)

Allah Almighty says: And Allah it is whose help is to be sought in that (predicament) which you describe (12:18)

That is, Allah Almighty has the power to manifest in the same Caliber with which you remember Him.

HADIS-E-QUDSI

(Saying of Allah reported by the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam)

I treat and deal My Slave in the similar way as is his conjecture and expectation about Me. Therefore, it is up to him what kind of speculation he has from Me.

The capacity for the Name-Allah-the-Essence (Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ) and the entire Names of Calibers of Allah Almighty is potently present inside the human being naturally since the Day of Azal. Hence, he, with whatever Name of Caliber of Allah Almighty, remembers Allah Almighty, he practically currents the capacity of that Caliber inside him and rears the same Ism (Name) and adopts the Noor of the same Ism as reflection in the mirror of his heart same as when the light of sun falls on mirror, the caliber of light and warmth of that light of sun is produced as reflection in same mirror. We see the light of sun in mirrors and lenses by our eyes that when the rays of sunlight pass through a convex lens, these generate so much heat that can burn cloth.
