One
of the stages of Tassawuf (Sufism) is Kashf-Al-Qaboor. At this stage one is
granted the knowledge of where the souls reside after passing away from this
world, what state they are in, how they are spending their life there and how
the day and night, months and years are in that realm. One meets the souls and
converses with them. This course of action is called Kashf-Al-Qaboor. To awaken
this ability it is essential that one has taken oath (Baith) in a spiritual
school of thought (Silsila). If a student is connected with his spiritual mentor and the spiritual abilities
within him begin to awaken then by
reciting یَابَاعِثُ (Ya Bā'isu) that eye is opened through which one
observes the souls, those ears are opened through which one hears the voices of
the souls. Allah grants one with that power of speech through which one can
converse with the souls.
