yet Abu Jaffer (R.A.) etc. had neither intended to go for the apparent statementship nor did they ever
indulged in intervention in to the state: Maqassedul Islam, Vol: 6 page 55 and Kaleeni page: 114.
Abu Abdullah had been saying: we are the administrators of the divine orders and treasures Allah’s
knowledge the bearers of Allah’s revelations. When they have no concern with Jehad and the
statesmanship then their being the administrators of states means that they are the administrators of the
states in essence interpretation. Obedience to them is vital. That is why in mysticism obedience to peer is
considered to be very essential and they write in unequivocal terms that in this trait no path is accessable
without obedience to a peer. It is reported in kaleeni vol. 6 page: 255 that Abu Abdullah (A.S.) has said
there is a secret, in our opinion, they said divine secret is one to communicate, which we are appointed
and therefore we have already communicated the same. However, we neither found its place nor those
who could bear it till Allah the Almighty created people as per the underlying spirit of Mohammeds, peace
be upon him and his offsprings and of the noor (i.e. light) with which the underlying spirit of Mohammed,
peace be upon him, and of his offsprings had been created therefore, they accepted to it—concluded--
These are the very staunchly orthodox people in faith who having admitted the sayings of the eminent
spiritual guides made remarkable achievements in learnings and in practice of mysticism (i.e. Tasawwuf)
as also acquired secrets and divinely lights while the eminent Imams accepted in their hearts their
teachings in the real sense. It is maintained in the book entitled: Maqaasedul Islam, vol 12, page: 34 that
as per a tradition reported in Khasayese-kubra that the prophet, peace be upon him said:” Each and every
leaf of the traces in paradise bears inscription of:” Laa Illaha Illullah, Mohammedur Rasoolullah.” In
Mawaahib Laduniya it is narrated by kaab Akbar that paying attention to his son: Sheesh (A.S.) Adam
Alaihissalam said:” O my son you are going to the successor after me. Hence, take Khilafat with a built up
structure of god-fearingness and a solid hand and whenever should you remember Allah then memorize,
alongwith it the name of Mahammed, peace be upon him. I have seen his name on the trunk of heaven
when I was in a state of soul and mud. Later on I saw by going on a round of all skies, I found there was no
name which bore no name of Mohammed, peace be upon him written thereon. And when my Cherisher
kept me in paradise I saw no balcony and veranda which bore no name of Mohammed, peace be upon
him. It is on chest of all the floors and all trees of paradise, on Tooba tree and Sidratul Muntha leaves, and
around the certains in between eyes of the angels the name of Mohammed peace be upon him is written
therefore chart his name. As from the old days, angels are continuously chanting his (PBUH) name.

It is maintained in the book Maqassidul Islam vol.1 that Allama Zarquani has printed out in Sharah
Mowaahebul laduniya as per the following: - ‘It is reported by Ibn-e-Abi AAsem in Al Sumah and Abu
Naeem through Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, verily Allah has said: O Mossa! He who shall see me
in that state he happens to be unaware of Mohammed, peace be upon him. I shall put in hell. So, Moosa
said: who is Mohammed? He replied O Moosa! I have not created a creature more revered mine before
twenty lakh years of creation of skies, sun and moon-(Concluded). This shows that being unaware of the
revered master, peace be upon him is making imperative of entry into the hell and, therefore, what stands
for its contradiction viz: the enlightenment is very vital. It was because of this reason Imam-e-Azam, may
Allah’s blessings be upon him, has stated: “Imam is enlightenment and confirmation and admission.” It
