In
our previous articles titled “Sunnah of Rasulallah” and “By
the Permission of Allah (Bi-izni-hi)” we have covered
some facts of SunnatAllah pertaining to that of human reality
and we have made remarks to the system of holographic reality which
in the words of Rasul of Allah was summarized as: “the particle
is a mirror of the whole”.
To go over briefly:
From the manifestation of the “quality of Rahman” (Rahmaniyyah)
within the aspect of an angle originating from a single “point”,
and from the Raheem which emerges as the potentiality within
that manifestation of Rahmaniyyah, results the entire
spiritual realm of Names (asma) through the universal
fecundity named as “arsh” (the highest heaven –not in a
material context), and thus, the Kursi (throne) comes about
as a stage in which the “rububiyah” is the reality and
commanding authority.
In
the meantime, since “the whole” is exactly reflected in each
particle, applied to individuals, the command of Rabb, or we may say
the consequences of specific composition of the Names, descends in
an orderly manner through the person’s heavens (samawah) to
the body.
At
this point, let us consider the matter from a different point of
view.
Information of jinnal origin will always turn human mind towards the
outer space (afaq) and spatial dimensions in order to
prohibit people to turn towards within. As I will inshallah
discuss further on the interpretation of the Chapters of Daybreak
and Mankind ((Surah al-Falaq and Surah an-Nas) in the
Koran; people obsessed with jinnal whisperings (waswasa) and
inspirations (ilhaam), restrain others around themselves also
from the “protective prayers” against the jinn that I have mentioned
earlier, because of the influence they are under. Whereas through
regular recitation of those prayers of RasulAllah, which are the
verses of the Koran, one will definitely be safe from all kinds of
jinnal influences. The beings invisible to the human eye, namely
jinns, wish not man to discover the mystery of caliphate within his
self. Prohibiting the man from this very mystery is their but one
aim. We have thoroughly written about these topics in our books
titled “Spirits, Men, Jinn” and “Wisdom and Faith”. The chapter of
“Why Satanic Jinns Are Enemies to Man” gives explanation about it.
This is why they are portrayed with their satanic characteristics (shaytaniyat).
The jinns will make people seek for the Rabb, Kursi
and Arsh (translated as the Lord, Throne and Highest heavens)
all somewhere in the outer space as if they were some tangible
objects, whereas in fact, they all are to be unveiled within the
true self (haqiqah) of human through spiritual ascension (miraj).
If
we wish to avoid these deceptions, and attain awareness of the Names
of Allah which in essence are revealed under the name of
“SunnatAllah” and if we wish to understand the order and system of
Allah…
If
we wish to begin “READING” the Koran through understanding it truly
by realizing the secrets deep within it, and if we wish to unveil
the hows and whats of revelations within “unchanging SunnatAllah”,
then there is a fine point we should consider before all:
If
the verse that we read speaks of man or of any other created being,
we should attach the word “Allah” or the “Names of Allah” mentioned
in that verse to the “mirror state of particles” and take them as
the manifestation of what is desired from within one’s inner self
or, put it in another way, we should interpret them in connection
with the spiritual states existent within the nature of that created
being.
Likewise, if the verse that we read speaks of dimensions in a cosmic
scale, then we should consider these Names with respect to states
existent within the universe.
As
we wish to understand the stage of attributes (sifat) of the
one named as “Allah”, we will then face the Chapter of Oneness (Surah
Ikhlas).
Yet, it is simply and definitely not possible to reflect the
Essence (Dhat) of the one whose name is “Allah”.
Attributes may signify but can never encompass Dhat; being
the sole reason for why it is impossible to reflect the Dhat
of Allah.
“Conceiving Allah is merely conceiving the fact that Allah is
inconceivable”
in the words of Abu Bakr −closest friend of Mohammed (peace be upon
him)−, is proclamation of him having completed his miraj.
Once this reality is grasped, perceived and actualized; the insight
(baseerah) turns unto seeing the spiritual authority (tasarruf)
of the Rabb of the worlds (rabbul alameen) or seeing
the command of Rabb over the servants.
“Sanureehim ayatina fee al-afaqi wafee anfusihim…” (41:53)
We
will show them our signs in the horizons and within themselves…
“Wafee al-ardi ayatun lilmooqineena.
Wafee anfusikum afala tubsiroona.” (51:20-21)
On
the earth are signs for those who have certainty, and in your own
souls (too); will you not then see?
The above verses of the Koran, too, underline this very subtle
point.
Through such a contemplation it will be clearly seen that whether
within or without (in the horizons, beyond), all might, power and
command belong to RABB alone!.. And that Rabb is “Mureed”
(the possessor of will, the Willing)!
“...inna Allaha yafaalu ma yureedu.” (22:14)
“Surely Allah carries out all in accordance with His Will”!
This verse makes remark to one of Allah’s attributes, the Will, and
the name pertaining to this attribute is “Mureed”!..
“The heart of the servant is as if between the two fingers of
Allah!”
Each single moment the heart is fashioned by the composition of
Names, that is its Rabb.
“Your Rabb commands no other to be served but Himself alone”
Because Rabb is only; one with no other Nurturer.
“Iyyaka naabudu wa-iyyaka nastaaeenu!”
In
the evident (zaheer), is the servitude of “Rabb within (baatin)”
that is fulfilled.
Come on my friend, waste not your time any more! Try to well
understand and grasp “Sunnah of Allah” and treasure all
that’s been delivered to you.
We
have already reminded you it will not be possible to regain time
that’s gone. At least for the time ahead, do not spend your time
in vain with what Satan makes alluring to you but come to your
senses and prepare yourself for the eternal afterlife in accordance
with these facts.
Remember, least better than not!
