Therefore, it is Haraam (illicit) for
the Faqeers to station and stop at any degree, Station,
and Destination.
MASNAVI (COUPLETS OF GREAT
SPIRITUAL MEANINGS)
Ishq has neither
peace nor rest,
Perhaps it will
find comfort (and solace) by death,
Those
Aashiqeen
, who are Mast
by this Goblet of Alast ,
Will not get relaxation
and calmness even after death!
HADIS
(Saying of the
Holy Prophet of Allah
Hazrat
Muhammad
Sal Allahu Alaihe
Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
)
Peace and
equanimity is Haraam (illicit) for hearts of the Aulia-Allah.

Allah
Almighty
says: [on the night of the Holy Ascension
(Mi'raaj) of Hazrat
Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe
Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
, his] eye turned
not aside nor yet was overbold (53:17)

The initial Maratib of the Faqar
of Aulia are lofty courage (and mettle), Love for the
Truth and Masters of Taufeeq
of Lord
and the entirety (and
perfection) of Faqar is the attainment of the infinite Secrets of
Divine Mysteries. Achieving Faqar is the lordship of Both-the-Worlds.
These Maratib
are
of the [Kaamil] Faqeer
sovereign of the Worlds the dominant Emir".
Do you know that Faqeer has three
Maratib? First, obey Allah
that is, Faqeer obeys
Allah
Almighty and gives up everything that distracts from Allah. Faqeer
with these Maratib is called the Fanaa-Fi-Allah (Destroyed
in Allah
). Second
Martaba of Faqeer is "and obey the Prophet
"
. (He) practices on the Greatest
Sunnat of-Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
[that is Tark
(Abnegation) of Dunya
(World)]. And every fortnight, (he) is honored
with chance of seeing the blessed sight of-Muhammad
Sal Allahu Alaihe
Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
. Faqeer with
such Maratib
is
called Fanaa-Fi-Rasool (Destroyed in Prophet
). Third Martaba of Faqeer
is the obedience of the Shaikh, who is the Oulul-Amar (in authority)
that is dominant
over all orders (and affairs) and is called the Fanaa-Fi-Shaikh
(Destruction in Shaikh). By these [three] Maratib , the Seeker
becomes dominant and rules over everyone through the Inwardly
gaze
and Tawajuh
and with the Auspiciousness (and blessing)
of the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb
Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu
Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah Sal
Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam
, covers Maratib of the life
and death.
Hence, "the Ulema the heirs of the
Holy Prophets Alaihimus-Salaam
"
, in fact, are
the Faqeers as they keep the Nafs away of greed (grasping),
temptation, Self-conceit, arrogance, and desires of
Nafs.
