Tajjali; The beatific vision, descends and turns
into Noor. The luminseance and the Noor descends and becomes the light or the manifestation.
The same manifestation is the object which is the manifested form of the beatific
vision and luminescence. The Beatific vision, in the other words, descends to become
the luminescence and luminescence descends to become the object or the manifestation.
This manifestation is created from the beatific vision and luminescence and expires
to return in the same luminescence and the beatific vision. And, if Allah would
desire, that non-existing would once again be made existing. Percipient (Aarif)
exercises his influence in the knowledge of the object ensuring a direct effect
upon the object.
Conductive influence (Tasurruf) – is of the three
types:-
i)
Miracle
ii)
Wonder working
iii)
Sorcery
It is necessary to understand here, the difference
between the three.
Sorcery is that knowledge which induced in a person
for a specific purpose by the evil spirits of the limbo or the demonolater jinns.
Examples of such a case is also found in times of the Holy Prophet (PBUH)
A lad, name Saaf Ibn-e-Sayyad, used to live in an
orchard situated in the vicinity of Medina. Demonolaters, on getting a chance, took
him into their possession and aroused his sixth sense. He used to lie down covering
himself in the sheet and would close his eyes and kept on watching and hearing the
activities of the angels which he narrated for the people. When the Holy Prophet
(PBUH) heard about him, he urged Omar to accompany him to see Ibn-e-Sayyad.
He was playing on a red mound near Medina when they
reached there. Holy Prophet (PBUH) asked him, “Tell, who am I?”
He paused, Thought and finally said, “you are the
messenger of the Illiterates but you proclaim to be the messenger of Allah”.
Holy Prophet (PBUH) commented, “Your knowledge is
imperfect and you have fallen prey to doubt, anyhow tell what is there in my heart?”
He replied, “Dukh” (one who does not believe) i.
e. you think that I will not believe.
Holy Prophet (PBUH) told him, “Then, your knowledge
is limited, you won’t be able to progress. You also do not know why it is so!”
Hazrat Omar said, “I may be granted permission to
chop off his head”.
Holy Prophet (PBUH) reply, “O, Omar if he is Dajjal
you won’t be able to get him and if he is not, he’s killing would be futile, leave
him”.
In the unseen world words and the meaning mean nothing.
Everything whether it is a fantasy, a thought, an idea or a feeling it has a form
and figure. If the sixth sense of someone is actively functioning, ability of Clairvoyance
is produced in him. The word of prophet in Hebrew means, one who sees the unseen
and the word for messenger means the messenger of unseen. For this reason Ibn-e-Sayyad
failed to determine vacticnal status of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). What he could observe
that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) was a messenger of the unseen, since his acquaintance
with the unseen realm was limited and confined he himself or to the extent of those
jinns who were his instructors or friends. He could observe the activities of angels
and this was the maximum his art could do. When he tried to understand the status
of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) he declared him to be the messenger of unseen because
he never had the gnosis of the deity. His necromancy could help him to know only
that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) had born in an illiterate nation and the miracles associated
with him were exhibited in an illiterate nation, so under the influence of this
thought he concluded that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) what is the messenger of the Illiterates.
When the Holy Prophet (PBUH) found him confined within the limits of sorcery he
put this question to him that he should tell him what was there in his heart. In
reply to this he said ‘Dukh’ and the Holy Prophet (PBUH) after concluding that he
won’t be having the cognition of the reality, informed him that he won’t be able
to progress.
Thus,
like Ibn-e-Sayyad no sorcerer can enjoy the Divine Cognition of Allah, the most
Exalter. This is the main difference between sorcery and the vaticinal knowledge
takes a man beyond the limits of prophesying and enable him to reach the Divine
goal of cognition of Allah, the Most High.
When
something supernatural is made to happen by a Prophet under the influence of the
Vaticinal Knowledge it is called Miracle and when something supernatural is made
to occur by a saint it is called the Wonder-working, this too, happens because of
the Vacticinal Knowledge. Effects of the Miracle and Wonder-working are permanent,
that is, they remain enforced unless abolished or removed by their producer. Whereas,
the actions conducted under Sorcery are not permanent and their impact is automatically
lost with the change of the environments. Anything that is made to happen because
of Sorcery is known as magic.
All the roots to creation associated to that current
of the beatific vision which is superior to the ultra-conscious. This current circulate
to the final limits of the most confined center of every particle of the components
of the universe. If this beatific vision experiences and unpleasant incidence during
its course of passage to the most confined center of the universe state of excited
agitation is produced in it.
According to the principles of sorcery some unpleasant
affect is produced in the most confined center, the beatific vision which is the
essence of virtue, gets irritated because of this dejecting effect and in retaliation
some destructive effect is caused. When someone produces some impurity or fetidness
in the most confined center, only because of a version of that beatific vision effectiveness
of the virtues becomes suspended and have powers acquire control over destruction
and deterioration. Shell of the most confined center is the human body.
Sadhoos, for instance, manage to completely clog
the skin pores of their bodies by dropping in ash on themselves. Thus, the inner
lights of their bodies which would be termed as the essence of the life become polluted
and acquire fluidity. This very fetidness starts flowing towards the most confined
centers of other bodies causing them to participate in ‘subversive activities‘under
the influence produced therein.
Bathing or Ablution before worshipping rites is
categorically suggested in every religion, though the worship is related to the
mind and not to the body. Purpose of ablution or having bath is to produce a refreshing
affect on the mind which could help in concentrating.
Here, we have to understand, how and where are the
actions and activities performed and enacted by our body limbs and organs I created.
Let us, therefore, take a look at the formational construction (nature of a thing).
Formational construction is the typical characteristics of the Persona major and
the Persona major is the collection of various species of all the creatures. Many
of the species and creatures are known to us. Lion, horse, legal, stars, moon, son,
or, sky, gin, angels, man, there, water, gold, silver, jams, sentence, pebbles,
Mountain, ocean, greenery and the insect, each one of them is a species or a creature.
There typicality or the specified form of the species is the formational construction
which always occurs in the same mode and pattern. A lion has a typical form and
shape, a particular temperament, it’s voice too, is a typical one in these things
are specific traits of its species. Similarly, man also has typical form and figure,
specific habits and manners and certain abilities of his own. Although both the
species in their formational constructions are entirely different from each other.
Origin of the formation is the same and both are ordained with similar physical
wants, love, affection, rage and sorrow. This concurrence is not in the formational
constructions of the species but in its origin which is that center of life we life
in its extremities get united whether it is one of the tiniest insects’ or that
of the Sun or the moon. This law gives us information regarding two parts of the
soul, one is the individual, separate formation of each species and the other is
the single United formation of all species, and the same is the great soul of the
persona major whereas, the individual formation of each species is the person in
a minor, and the manifestation of the very same are known as the individuals. For
instance, all the human beings are the same formation within the perimeter of the
persona minor.
One: individuals of every species happen to know
one another within the perimeter of the Personna minor, that is, the limits of this
sub-formation. Second: every individual is acquainted with the individuals of all
the species in the limits of the persona major i. e. , The perimeter of the super-formation.
A lion recognises another lion as it’s fellow being by virtue or the persona minor
whereas the seems line would identify a man, a river, the water of the river, his
dwelling land, the warmth or the coldness of the weather by virtue of the Personna
Major. A lion is drawn toward a lion because of the sub-formation but when a lion
feels thirsty and he tends to drink water, this tendency takes place in him because
of the super formation. And only because of the Super formation I. E. , the persona
Major he understands that water quenches thirst.
KHWAJA SHAMS-UD-DEEN AZEEMI
Alshaikh Khwaja
Shamsuddin Azeemi, Chief Editor of the monthly Roohani Digest, the renowned
spiritual scholar, founder of the chain of Muraqba Halls the world over has had
the honour of learning the spiritual sciences from his spiritual mentor, His
Divine Grace Qalander Baba Auliya, the sage of this age. In order to teach him
the spiritual sciences Qalander Baba Auliya made Alshaikh Azeemi to pen down
the words that he used to narrate. Alshaikh Azeemi being a devoted disciple not
only noted the contents but also did his best to understand what he was taught.
The eventual out come of his dedicated work took the form of the ‘Loh-o-Qalum’,
the first ever book that comprises the whole syllabus of the spiritual science.
Who else was more suitable to explain the contents of this document but
Alshaikh Azeemi, the very able student of Qalander Baba Auliya. Dissemination
of that knowledge, which is the legacy of prophets and had reached him in
disciplic succession, has become an obsession for Alshaikh Azeemi because, according
to him, this knowledge is the only elixir and the antidote for the ailing
humanity in present times.
