SHARAH OF TAFAKKUR

And
(Word) Tafakkur divides into four letters of alphabet: Taa , Faa , Kaaf
and
Raa .
By letter Taa is abnegation of greed and desire and from
the letter Faa is desired Fanaa-e-Nafs and the Karamat
of Ruh from letter Kaaf ? and the Secret of Haq from the letter Raa . And if
the abnegation of greed and desire, Fanaa-e-Nafs , Karamat of Ruh
and Secret of Haq have not become definite and clear, it
cannot be called Tafakkur . What is the hallmark of the Master of Tafakkur
that, he does the Tafakkur of Elaha while exercising the Zikr of Lord as it ensures no
perpetration of any sin on the (Straight) Path of Righteousness. And
what is the sign of that Master of Tafakkur, who does the Zikr of
Lord and there is no Nifaaq
(discord) in the heart of his Pure (holy) Inward? The Master of
Tafakkur
, who does the Zikr of Lord , draws a line around the Outsiders of
Allah.
It
is very hard thing to be a Seeker of Lord (Taalib e Maula) and the (Arabic Word) Maula
(Lord) is
also divided into four letters of alphabet: Meem , Wao , Laam and Yaa . He is the Seeker of Lord , who chooses these four
things according to all of the letters of alphabet of Maula : he should opt
Maut (Death) by the Meem in Maula. He, who chose Maut
(Death) during his lifetime [and remembered Death in
abundance], got the life of eternity. Moreover, he, who chose Maula
(Lord) through Wao ,
is as if chose recluse after becoming Fanaa-Fi-Allah (Destruction in
Allah ) in the Wahid
(the One). And he, who chose Maula (Lord) through letter Laam , gave up
the curse (and ban) because upon the remembrance of Dunya (World),
curse descends upon. In addition, he, who chose Maula (Lord)
through Yaa , became unified with God and never
asked anyone for help other than Maula (Lord). This is the Sahib
Taalib ul Maula Oola Aulia-Allah
!
[Therefore,
O Seeker !] he, who is endowed with this caliber, is Seeker of
Lord from the core of soul,
otherwise is the ghoul of wilderness. The Course
of Maula
(Lord) and the Faqar of-Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe
Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam belongs to Ilm (Knowledge). It
was said 'Al Ilmu Nuktatun' , that is, (all) Ilm is (just) one Nukta
(point). That very Ilm that has three letters of alphabet: Aien , Laam and Meem . And the
letter Aien desires acquisition of Ilm. He, who
did not understand Aien and did not find Ain (the Essence
of Lord ) through Aien , is Jaahil
, blind and sightless.
Allah
Almighty says: Whoso is
blind here will be blind in Hereafter (17:72) ***


*** [The word
"blind" here implies if
someone has not found the way to the Haq
and from above Holy Verse it has
implied that whose eyes are deprived of seeing Haq in the world, how can
these see in the Doomsday? Sufi Saafi has taken its meanings as "he,
who is disable to see the Beauties of the Divine Tajalli in the world,
will stay deprived of the Taste of Didaar on the Day of
Resurrection also. [Explanation by Dr. K. B. Naseem (Rh.)]]
