T A S A U W U F - Zinda Nawaz

eward” (Al Quran). A divine hadeeth:- A devotee of mine keeps on coming close to me with performing
Nawafils till I love him and once I make him a friend I become his listening and his seeing, his hand and his
tongue hence, he listen through me, he sees through me, he grasps through me and he talks through me”,
O Allah! Concede for a concurrence.
It is maintained in Maqasidul Islam vol.6 page: 78 that a statement of Abu Abdullah (A.S.) had
been reproduced in Kaleeni, page: 496 as below:” An honest women is a rare person in comparision of
honest male and an honest male is a rare person as compared to the red flint stone- so, who out of you
have seen a red flint done?.The end. As per the narrative in the Maqaasidul Islam vol. 6 page: 61 kaleeni
page: 204. But Hasan stated that-“Abu Mohammed shall be my successor. He has the knowledge of Maa
Yohtaj Elaih and he possesses the instrument of Imamat too.” This makes clear that the instrument of
imamat is not a war-weapon; rather it is knowledge of getting annieablity towards Allah, which be available
with the eminenet spiritual guides. It appears in Maqaasidul Islam vol. 6, page: 61 and kaleeni page: 119
that Imam Raza has said that imamat are a particular rank which has been bestowed on Hazarat Ibrahim
Khaleelullah after the prophethood and the garb in an especial manner and the divine proclamation was
that: -“I am placing you for the human being as Imam.” He had exclaimed with enormous joy: And from my
offsprings-“viz: O lord! Are there going to be imams from my offsprings too?” The reply was:” My promise
does not reach to the tyrants.” This verses nullified imamat of the tyrants forever. Summary concluded.
This verse establishes the fact that imamat is the technical term for a rank that is lofty in esteem and it was
bestowed upon Hazrat Khaleel Alayhissalam. It bears no link with an apparent statehead. Therefore,
Hazrat Ibrahim and ishaq and yahya Alayhissalaam etc. being designated as imams and not being the
rulers of states is a proven fact from the deciding texts. However, this imamat cannot be awarded to tyrants
and tressgressors. Because, it is one that is gifted and not derived through labour. As this point has been
elaborated in the saying of Imam Raza Alashissalaam in Maqaasadul Islam vol. 6 pages: 50 and kaleeni
page: 258 in the following manner:
“ It is reported by Abi Jaffer (R.A.) that we have found in the book that the earth belongs to Allah, he
bestows it to anyone out of the devotees he likes and the happy ending is for those who are god-fearing
and myself and members of my family are those whom Allah has made heirs of the earth and we are god-
fearing and the entire earth is for us.”-
Concluded: - It is quite devious that Ali Karmullah Wajhahoo had neither taken control over the land of
Syria etc. nor of the offsprings and ancestors of him. It is despite this he is of the opinion that the entire
land belongs to us. The meanings of it are the some what the Allah’s Valees have pointed out that a
perfected human-being is Allah’s sifat enjoying a complete access to the entire world. It appears on page
15 of Kaleeni that imam jaffer has said: the creatures which are created by Allah, birds or animals, rather
all those who are having soul, all are listening to our talks more than the mankind and offer obedience to
us.
This point is an established fact from the experiences of the Allah’s Valees and from their super natural
habits. Now you see that these form to be the prerequisites and symbols of the Khilafat in the technical
sense of the term. Despite the fact all human-beings, jinns and all creatures had been obedient to orders
