ears which hear, the eyes which see, the hands which hold<br />

things, and the feet which walk, of my born servant whom I<br />

like very much. I will certainly give him whatever he wants.<br />

I will certainly protect him when he takes refuge with Me.’ ”<br />

This hadîth-i qudsî has been explained in the third page of the<br />

seventeenth chapter of the second part and in the one hundred<br />

and eighty second page of the book Hadîqa, on the one<br />

hundred and sixty-fifth page of the Turkish book Kıyâmet ve<br />

Âhiret, and also on the sixty-second page of the book The<br />

Sunni Path. The qurb (that is, to approach Allâhu ta’âlâ) which<br />

come forth with fards, is more than the qurb which comes from<br />

the nâfilas. But, the fards of taqwâ owners when done with<br />

ikhlâs cause qurb. Ikhlâs means to do the worships because<br />

Allâhu ta’âlâ commands them. Every Sunnî Muslim has an<br />

amount of ikhlâs. Depending on his taqwâ and worshipping,<br />

pieces of information pertaining to heart and called fayz (fayd)<br />

will come to his heart. If he receives these fayds, which<br />

emanate from a Walî’s heart, his ikhlâs will grow stronger in a<br />

short time. Taqwâ is to hate the harâms and even not to think<br />

about doing a harâm. It means a case of spiritual closeness to<br />

Allâhu ta’âlâ, and to obtain His consent, and being loved by<br />

Him. [See the last paragraphs of the section Final Word of<br />

Se’âdet-i Ebediyye in this book.]<br />

The nûrs and fayds, which Allâhu ta’âlâ sends to Believers’<br />

hearts, will come more profusely to those who have stronger<br />

taqwâ and who worship more. In other words, there will be an<br />

increase in such people’s aptitude and tendency to receive<br />

fayz. Fayds emanate from Rasûlullah’s blessed heart.<br />

Receiving the fayds coming requires loving Rasûlullah. And<br />

loving him, in its turn, requires learning his knowledge, beautiful<br />

moral properties, miracles and perfections. If Rasûlullah, too,<br />

sees a person, his receiving fayds will become augmented. It is<br />

for this reason that those who attended his sohbat and saw his<br />

beautiful face and heard his sweet words received more fayz.<br />

And it is for this reason that the As-hâb-i-kirâm received more<br />

fayz, their hearts were purified from worldly affections and they<br />

had ikhlâs. The nûrs and fayds they attained travelled through<br />

the hearts of the Awliyâ and reached our time. If a person<br />

knows a Walî living in his time, loves him, attends his sohbat<br />

and ingratiates himself with him, the nûrs which emanated from<br />

Rasûlullah’s blessed heart and arrived into the Walî’s heart will<br />
