Jamiaul Asrar

O Muslims! Listen! For the People of Islam, the dream is conformable as construed; for the People of Ilm, the Qaal (utterance) is conformable to the letters in script; for the People of Wazaaif, the Istikhara is conformable to the Two Rakat Assalaat (Prayers); and for the People of Zikr, the Muraqiba is conformable to the Ahwaal (conditions). (In these things,) they see the conditions (Ahwaal) in a way as they see the spectacle of Both-the-Worlds in mirror. Hence, it was revealed in a Sacred Hadis:

HADIS

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

A Momin is the likeness of mirror to the other Momin.

For the Arifeen, the Complete-Answer-as-Advice-and-help (Jawaab-ba-Sawab) arrives through Ilhaam and for the Dervish, Ghaus and Qutab the study of Loh-e-Mahfooz becomes available and Tawajuh becomes available to Momin and the Tasarruf of Both-the-Worlds is got by the People of Faqar the Fanaa-Fi-Allah (Destroyed in Allah). Faqeer is needy of none except Allah Almighty.

It should remain clear that Mujtahid is of two kinds: one Outwardly and the other Inwardly. The Outward People of Wilayat have Jihad with Nafs. The Master of Marifat Muaarif-Bi-Allah is for Hidayat and sleep is not for the Master of Hidayat. And sleep is the name of ignorance. [Hence] they are free of the ignorance. Their eating is Mujahida and their sleeping is Mushahida. Satan cannot take the shape of the Seal of the Prophets (Khatam ul Anbiya), Faqeers, the Ulema-e-Aamil Rahmaani, Rahmaani Zaakir, reader of the Holy Quran, Ka'ba the Harem Allah, and the blessed Tomb of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam and sun and moon. Satan has no ability to copy the aforementioned figures. That is, if Satan desires that he should show itself in the dream of a person in the appearance of the aforesaid things, it is impossible for him to do so.

The Course of Rectitude (Raasti) leads unto the Majlis of the Overlord of Cosmos Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam. Satan [cannot appear] in [the said] Original Divinely figures.

Allah Almighty says: Lo! As for My slaves, you have no power over any of them (15:42)

From this it should be understood that he (Satan) can never take the figure of those, who really deserve to be called the slaves of Allah Almighty.
