Muhikal Faqar (Qalan)

There is blight (and disaster) for everything and the blight for human being is his Nafs .

Allah Almighty says: And he went into his garden, while he (thus) wronged himself (18:35)

And blight (and disaster) for Nafs is its greed and the greed and Nafs do not part from man [as long as he does not given up greed] and unless he chooses Tark and Tawakul . And the Tark and Tawakul are not gained in absence of the 'mark of (the wound) and the pain of the Muhabbat (Cordiality and Affection) of Allah'. And the Zikr of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb does not bring its (efficacious) effectiveness (and the impact) in absence of the Hidayat [and Tawajuh ] of the Murshid-e-Kaamil because Tauheed and Tawakul are achieved through the Wird of Kalimah-e-Tayyeb Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah: there is none worthy of worship except Allah; Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah (Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam).

HADIS

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

The revelations of the Tauheed and Tawakul are the same.

Zikr of Nafi and Asbaat and Drowning in the Name Allah the Eternal Essence and the ongoing Zikr of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb but with the recitation of the Holy Quran, these are the Maratib of the Master-of-Wisaal .

HADIS

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

Kalimah-e-Tayyeb Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah is the pre-eminent Zikr

The Glorious Quran is the Word of Command of Allah Almighty and the Order and Proclamation of Allah Almighty is force from Azal to Abad. And Shariyat of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam is a moving Ocean, which leads unto fulfillment of everyone's hope. And the Ism-e-Azam of Allah Almighty is mercy (and blessing) but rather it is rain of His Grace (and Bounty) and the Name Allah is dominant over every affair as:

Allah Almighty says: and Allah has full power and control over His Affairs (12:21)

About Tawakul: Tawakul means breaking relation with 'all that, which is besides Allah' and making relation with Allah. Tawakul has four Degrees, which are as under:

1.       Earning the Halaal livelihood and eating Halaal (lawful and allowed) and providing Halaal to family, parents, and expending in the way of Allah from his assets earned by Halaal (lawful) means and performing the Five Fundamental Elements of Islam. However, this is the Tawakul of the ordinary persons.

2.       Tawakul of Second Degree is, breaking ties with the creation and making ties with the Creator. This degree is achieved because of the Tawajuh of the Murshid-e-Kaamil. The love for the world ends from the heart of the Seeker due to it and he, on entering the garden of Tawakul, removes all thorns of greed (grasping) and the Nifaaq ,.

3.       Tawakul of Third Degree is that the Seeker breaks ties with the entire Creatures, and builds ties with the Creator and becomes His beloved, he always remains Immersed (and Absorbed) in the Remembrance of Lord, and Zikr-e-Khafi is gained by him that takes him to the Maratib of a Majzoob.

4.       The Seeker after Immersing in the Noor of the Essence becomes eternally Absorbed in Noor and becomes Laa-Yuhtaaj after finding the Martaba of the godly (Ba-Khuda), the Waasil with Haq and the Absolute Noor. He is left with no want of anything or any dependency. This is the entirety of Tawakul that is the holy person of Lord of Worlds Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallamand is available to the Faqeers of his Ummat because of his means. Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam has said that: "Faqar is my pride and Faqar is from me [that is, it is my Sunnat]

ABOUT THE ZIKR OF Kalimah-e-Tayyeb (AND NAFI AND ASBAAT):

The Zikr of Kalimah-e-Tayyeb is the superior Zikr. It is the lamp of Selk-Salook of the Qadiri-Sufi-Order. It has three parts:

1.                   Through Laaa-Ilaaha, Nafi is realized. This Nafi is completely for all that, which is besides Allah.

2.                   Through the Ill-Allahu, the Faqeer is Drowned in the Wahdat and attains the Marifat of Ill-Allahu. With it, the Noori body gets that ability of flight that cannot be explained in words. He meets the Roohani by this.

3.                   Through 'Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah (Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam is the Prophet of Allah) is achieved the Hazoori of the Holy Prophet Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam which is the entirety (and perfection) of the Faqar.

However, just verbal recitation of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb, like a parrot, grants nothing except Sawaab as long as a Master of Kalimah-e-Tayyeb does not get the Seeker read it and does not tell him its Depth because he, who recites it with the Depth, reaches unto the highest degrees and gains this supreme blessing and thenceforth he does not say it through tongue but hears its recital from his Qalb. Hazrat Sultan-ul-Arifeen Hazrat Sultan Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe has said in his Punjabi couplets that there is no better elixir for heart than the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb. Only the Kalimah e Tayyeb is the most effective balm for the heart. The Kalimah-e-Tayyeb removes the corrosion of polytheism, Kufr, greed, desire, grudge, and vanity and jealousy etcetera from the heart and washes the pollution of the filth of Dunya (World) from heart. On the Day of Judgment, the Zikr of Kalimah-e-Tayyeb will be diamonds and rubies and jewels and the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb is the outlet of Marifat in the heart of the Arif , which has all balms and cures. O Bahu! Here and there, in both the worlds, just the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb is the whole world.
