Majalsa-tul-Nabi(P) in English

PAGE NO. 22

And the holders of the position of Tareeqat consider themselves in the position of Hazoori before the positions of Haqeeqat and Marifat. Thus whoso comes out of these positions successfully, and covers these stations, he reaches to the Wilayat of a Wali Allah.

Allah Almighty said: �Allah is the Protecting Friend of those who believe. He brings them out of darkness into light� (2:257)

Fire (Naar) is darkness whereas the Noor of Allah is light.

Allah Almighty says �Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of His Light is as (if) a niche and within it a lamp, the lamp is in glass, the glass as it were a brilliant star, lit from a blessed tree, an olive, neither of the east nor of the west whose oil would almost glow forth though no fire touched it. Light upon Light! Allah guides to His Light whom He wills. And Allah sets forth parables for mankind, and Allah is All-Knower of everything. (24:35)

This is such a Noor which cannot be �bound to certain limits only� like that of ordinary light. This Noor is a fire that has no hotness such that this perfumed fire produces a red color (pigment) which generates in the body and soul of man due to the excessive water and the Mercy of Allah and remains lit in a niche of heart of man and derives its light from the olive tree of the Divine Love, Marifat, firm belief and Yaqeen of man. The light of this Noor takes the eye with vision (of God) to the Hereafter.

Allah Almighty says: �On that day will their Lord will perfectly informed concerning them� (100:11)

O equipped with vision! You see yourself with your eye of Baatin.
