In
reply to this, the very much respectable teacher suggested this
effective way out to this student which is worthy of hearing 'O brilliant
alumni! I tell you the right way out for this difficult and fatal situation
that you should start research on hedge hogs from today. This includes in it so
much interests and unimaginable strange and wonderful carnal subtleties that
you will not only forget your beloved darling but also will disregard the whole
world and all that it contains'. Subhan Allah
(Glory be to Allah)! Just have a
look on the craziness and mania of the scientific studies of the European
researchers and explorers that how a very highly qualified doctor is advising a
solution to avoid suicide and shows him the way to salvation in the gardens of
thorns on the back of a hedgehog! Now let us peep in our self that for the Seeker
of Allah
and for the
Saalik
and Arif
of this Course, how much limitless and endless field of
Spiritual World is ahead of him and how many wonderful and marvelous unseen and
unheard treasures of (Advanced level) Learning and Mysteries
are to explore and
how many unique, fine and Daqeeq
scientific Truths of life and the huge
treasure of the vey essential and indispensable information of the eternal
life-after-death is lying unexplored and hidden and the avenues of making
contact and meeting with the Subtle
Creatures
of the Realm of Invisible like
Jinnaat, Angels and Spirits
and for getting their help and blessings are
open and the possibilities of the Marifat, Qurb
and Wisaal
, Mushahida
and Fanaa
and Baqaa
and Liqaa
of Allah
Almighty are present! However, we are
totally blind and deaf on this aspect. Thus, the human being should not waste
his precious life merely for struggle for Dunya
(World) but he should also show
his concern for the Uqba. No doubt, he should his worldly duties and at the
same time he should not become unmindful against the Demand
and search for is
Lord.
With
our aforementioned discussion that 'Allah Almighty is the Absolute
Sustainer and the Sustenance
has been
predestined since the Day of Azal', some educated people of Western influence
would yell with discredit and would say that 'this is just the teaching and
advice for Rahbaniyat
and the issues and beliefs of this kind have turned the
Muslims unproductive and idle'.
*
This
is not our intention that people should give up wording and vocations and may
sit idle and unemployed just on the Tawakul
on Allah
Almighty. What we have
described, it is the original Islamic Theory and Belief based upon the Sacred
Code of Shariyat. We now describe the issue of earning the livelihood and the
search for Sustenance
with more details because the matter of Sustenance
and
livelihood is very much vital and important. In the cause of earning livelihood
and Sustenance, they are totally free without a restraint and follow every way
they like a horse without reins. They do not give any consideration for Halaal
and Haraam
and the fair and unfair. They hesitate not to get money from
wherever they find it and consider every type of earning Halaal
like the milk
of mother. Only because of notoriety and because of the threat of the
government officials and in wake of the fear of the accusations and blames of
the enemies, sometimes, these people hesitate and dither to openly earn Haraam
and illegitimate earnings. No limit is of accumulating wealth, capital
investment and hoarding near such people. In their opinion, the standard of
nobility and mores is worldly wealth and possessions. The more a person is
corrupt and crooked in terms of morality and religion but is wealthy and
worldly like Qaroon
, the more he is noble, respectable, civilized and elite.
For such people someone has said:
Be
a pig, or be a bear, or be a dog for the carcass,
Be
whatever you want to be but be a rich outclass.
[Talib
Amili]
Rarely
if ever, these people decide to spend their wealth for some good cause or in
public interest, even in this move, their intention uses to be of fame,
popularity and reputation in public. That is why such kinds of projects settle
down like the dust of path and 'scatter motes' (25:23)
. Such deeds of virtue
bear not value and worth near Allah
Almighty. Every move and motive of such
people is for the sake of Dunya
(World). These people are just the slaves of Dunya
(World) and the Nafs
and all their efforts and struggle is limited to only Dunya
(World).
