By
this I realized that the spirits
of animals also live alive after their deaths'.
Sympathy to the animals and the movement of stopping the people from
slaughtering them is in great voyage. Now many people have stopped eating the
meat of animals there and are becoming herbivores. That is, they are living on
plants now. When such is the state of affairs that the spirits
of the animals,
pets and bugs exist after their deaths and meet the human beings after death,
then why would it be that the spirit
of the human being is not alive after
death. Alas for those people who say that there is no profit in visiting the
graves of Aulia Rahmatu-Allah Ta'ala Alaihim and Prophets Alaihimus-Salaam
as they have mixed into soil and what is there important in those piles of mud.
Nevertheless,
the Spirits
exist in the Azal
in their Original Subtle
Form before these arrive
in world and come at their respective time fixed and assume the Dense Raiment
of the Corporeal Body upon arrival here and when their predetermined period has
expired in this world, they discard this Dense Raiment of Elements and leave
for the Abode of Hereafter
and enter the Station
of Barzukh
in a Subtle
Invisible Bulk
as a traveler and exist in Barzukh
and visit our this Abode of
World in their Subtle
Bulks and extend every possible help to their relatives,
kin and friends and beloveds. As much as a Spirit
is advanced and powerful,
that much more help and benefit it gives. If these deem it fit, these bring
loss and damage to the enemies and ill-wishers of their near ones and lovers.
Often this has been observed that when, in this world, a severe and dangerous
and a cumbersome situation is encountered by a person, his parents and Saints
feel great anxiety and disturbance in the Station
of Barzukh
and extend him
every kind of help. Hence, many Roohaneen
have requested this Faqeer
to pray
for their children and relatives. Some Roohaneen, when pass away from this
world in the unconsciousness and oblivion, due to the death-illness which is
also called Sukraat ul Maut, a Bulk
of them reenters the world when it
they have regained consciousness (after death) and watches his relatives and
friends weeping over his death in his house and finds them busy in doing
arrangements of someone's burial and thinks that someone has died in his house.

However,
when he sees his own dead body on the slab of funeral bath, he comes to realize
that he has died instead. When the time of a virtuous, righteous, Momin
and
pious person dies, at the time of death, Hazrat
Izraeel Alaihis-Salaam meets
him in such a beautiful and charming way that the person dying becomes
preoccupied in his
beautiful spectacle and he
seizes his spirit
with quite ease and comfort. There are some people whom the
spirits
of their late relatives and friends meet and give them happy tiding of
their intact Eimaan
and their Deliverance. These spirits
are clad in fine
heavenly raiment and celebrate for this person with intact Eimaan
and sing
songs of happiness. At that occasion, the Angels give that blessed
spirit
the heavenly vestment and the perfumed and sweet scented dress from
Heaven and escort him to the Station
of Elliyyeen
with great honor and protocol
and show him his Abode in the Paradise. Then he is brought in grave in the
Barzukh
and is wakened up for the session of 'questions and answers' and when
he has given replies to all questions and has passed the examination and became
successful, the Angels say:
'O
slave of Allah! Please take a sleep in peace same as a bride sleeps! May
Allah
bestow upon you the best'
After
this an overpowering sleep of Barzukh
overlaps him and his spirit
travels and
visits the bloom fields of his Garden and enjoys in dreams and when it wakes up
it relapses and comes to his grave, body and the Station
of World and collects
the Sawaab
, Charity and Fateha from the visitors of his grave and it extends
its help to them in turn. It has come in a Hadis
that on Friday, the spirit
gets wakefulness in grave from the night of Friday till the Friday Assalaat
(Prayers). During these hours, the spirits
are wakeful in their graves. However,
when a hypocrite, Mushrik
and sinner person expires, his spirit
is seized by
Hazrat
Izraeel Alaihis-Salaam in a very frightening and
startling way. When that unblessed and unlucky spirit
leaves its body, curse
and imprecation fall from all sides on it.
