However,
regrets are for some of our those sensual clerics with narrow understanding,
who have never felt even a puff of the spiritual world that when they read the
accounts of the display of this kind of spiritual power and Inwardly
Force, in
order to make these accounts matching with their imperfect material approach,
they bring forth strange irrelevant explanations of these verses and the
Miracles distorting their real intent and they completely disfigure their
realism and originality and prove them to be the plays of the (histrionic)
jugglers and the devices of illusions.
What
would they do otherwise than giving such bogus explanations for the real and
natural Miracles of (the Realm of) Command and for the Extraordinary Paranormal
habits of the Messengers of Allah
Almighty because they are those people, who
have claimed the Office of Prophecy just on the basis of trick and behind the
curtain of deceit and have just verbal claims and fabricated false prophecies
in their favor as compared to the awful Spiritual Powers and the Inwardly
Forces (of the real Messengers of Allah) and the camp of an illusionist at once
side and the abject Cabinet and the curtain of the Sifli
marvels of the Medium
of the Spiritualist of Europe on the other hand both feel more authentic and
weighty as compared to the imaginary false revelations and the fake foretelling
of their counterfeit messenger! Someone has said well:
Not
every that person is called Musa who holds a staff,
The
wise do not call every hand the Yad e Beza (glowing hand of Musa),
Great
difference is between the fart of donkey and the blow of the mouth of Esa,
Not
every person, who blows from mouth, is called Messiah.
[Mir
Anees]
Hence,
when it is beyond the scopes of material wisdom and its perception to estimate
the Realm of the Witnessed, that is, this material world and its creations therein,
then how can the physical cattle identify the Subtle
Kingdom of the Realm of
the Unseen and its creatures as they have no Subtle
Invisible Senses in order
to feel and find them not do they have their access nor have they ever taken
birth there but instead they have been lying inside the Invisible Womb of the
mother of Materialism (and freethinking) like a fetus.
Hence,
those Saalikeen, who undertake Mujahida
in the Course
of Allah, Allah
Almighty
shows them His ways:
Allah
Almighty says: As for
those who strive in Us, We surely guide them to Our paths (29:69)
Those
people, who have been following 'therefore, flee unto Allah' (51:50), they
surely become Waasil
with their Real beloved.

After
this, Allah
Almighty shows them the tangible and intangible treasures of His
Kingdom and employs them in His special and all Holy Sanctuary (Court) as the
Outward
and Inward
servants and members and makes the Jinn, Angels and
Spirits
their submissive and obedient to their command and they do utilize them
whenever they deem fit as Allah
Almighty says:
Thus
did We show Abraham the kingdom of the heavens and the earth that they might be
of those possessing certainty (6:75)
Moreover,
Allah
Almighty showed the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat
Muhammad Mustafa Sal
Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam His entire Great and Glorious
Kingdom and will ever be showing to His special chosen bondmen till the Day of
Resurrection.
And
that is no great matter for Allah
(14:20)
It
has been mentioned in Ahadees
that Allah
Almighty has sent about One Hundred Twenty
Four Thousand Messengers Alaihimus-Salaam. However, some
Messengers Alaihimus-Salaam have been remembered by
their names. About seven thousand years have passed after Hazrat
Adam Alaihis-Salaam.
Appointment of so many Messengers (of Allah) Alaihimus-Salaam
during this short period feels beyond our understanding. The gap between Hazrat
Musa Alaihis-Salaam h
and our beloved Prophet Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam was about five
hundred years. Moreover, the life of Hazrat
Nooh (Noah) Alaihis-Salaam
has been reported about nine hundred years. If we calculate like this, if
seventeen or eighteen Messengers Alaihimus-Salaam
are appointed in each year, then the afore-mentioned number can be
accommodated. The exact date of birth of has not been told in the Holy Quran
and the exact period of the creation of this earth is also not known. Therefore,
either we have to believe that the appointment of these Messengers Alaihimus-Salaam
was on the other Spheres or we have to refer to that Hadis
in which the Holy
Prophet Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam has advised that
fifteen thousand Adams have come in the world and our progenitor Hazrat
Adam Alaihis-Salaam
was the last Adam who started the race of
human beings. Shaikh
Muhyiddeen Ibne Arabi Rahmatu-Allahe
Ta-aala Alaihe writes in his book 'Futuhaat e
Mecci' that 'I happened to meet some Roohaneen
in the Holy Makkah. With other
things spoken during the meeting, I asked them the period they had passed away
from the world and they told me it was ten to twelve thousand years'.
