Hudal-lil-Muttagiin;
'Allaziina yu'-minuuna bil Gaybi (This book sheds Light
on those whose hearts are turned to God). Gayb means those truths which
are not apparent to the natural observation of a man, and all such truths are
related to the knowledge of God. The meaning of belief is certainty or
assurance. The meaning of certainty is that truth which always wanders and
seeks, not because the search brings remuneration but because it seeks to
satisfy the longing. The meaning of Muttaqi is that person who uses his wisdom
to deepen his understanding of all things and at the same time does not allow
skepticism to come close to him. He is careful about God that no aspect of the
universe can deceive him. He recognizes God very distinctly and knows His
handiwork very distinctly.
KHWAJA SHAMS-UD-DEEN AZEEMI
What is the universe? It is a point, and this point is a
divine light, and the divine light is itself a light.
Every point is the imprint of luminescence (Tajalli). When
this imprint transforms itself into the divine light then it becomes Aura
(Jism-e-Misali). The display of the Aura is the physical body.
The physical body is built up as a structure of bones, flesh,
and muscle. The skin is a kind of plaster and color on this building. The life
of the human being who is made up of veins, arteries, nerves, bones, and flesh,
is nothing except senses.
