There was one very special Noor (Luminous Light) which I was taught about. It was explained to me that this was the Noor of the Final Messenger and Prophet of all time. I was fortunate enough to have witnessed this Noor over and over again; this was at the time when I was arrested and taken up to the heavens.<br />
<br />
Ah Yes! The situation was that at this moment in time there was nothing else in the universe, only the Noor of the Lord God was prevalent and illuminating in every direction. And so for His recognition to create the universe.<br />
<br />
The Lord God then divided this Noor into two halves. The first half contained a secret which the Lord God kept confidential only to Himself. This first half was more bright and abundant in splendour; the Supreme Creator Himself gave in the name 'Noor'.<br />
<br />
The second half was equal in quantity but was not of the same grade as the Supreme Noor and it had specific quantities of the splendour of the first half removed from it.<br />
<br />
The second half was again further divided into two portions. The first portion was especially converted in order to give it superiority over the second portion. This first portion was prescribed the name 'Nar' and from it the nation of Jinn was created. The remaining second portion (which contained even fewer qualities of the Supreme Noor) was set aside for the creation of the souls of the devils and the animal kingdom.<br />
<br />
And thus the division was such that the first half was pure a Noor and had the exclusive splendour in it, it was specified for the Holy Souls, the angels and likewise creatures and the heavens etc. and so the first Soul to be created from it was that of the Last Prophet. Next the Pen and Scriptrum, intellect and all the dimensions and bodies came in to being.<br />
<br />
The second half of he pure Noor had the particular specific illuminations removed from it was then split into two portions. One portion was altered to give precedence over the other portion. The first portion was specifically set aside for the creation of the souls of the Jinn and the second portion was specified for the creation of the souls of the devils.<br />
<br />
From the first division of the Noor, the creatures that came into being from it were bound by the obligation of worship; this is because they were created from the specific pure Noor. As a result the duty of obligation became part of their nature and they remained innocent. Also because these creatures were created from pure Noor they did not reflect a shadow.<br />
<br />
The second division had the spcific qualities of radiance taken out of it but still contained one part of Noor, this portion was specified for the nation of Jinn. And hence the shadow of the Jinn did not reflect on the earth either. Nar (Fire) was dominant in them due to the lesser quantity of Noor.<br />
<br />
Due to the dominance of Nar the creatures created from it led themselves onto a destructive path. There were instances where some of the individuals of this nation were completely void of any faith or any belief and this too was a result of the Nar being prevalent in them. Yes, there was a glimmer of Noor present in these creatures but as I have said, the Nar was more domineering in them and so the nature of destruction was more widespread in this nation.<br />
<br />
However, these were the circumstances regarding the creation of the universe and I have narrated these very briefly. Let me skip over all other stories and events and go straight to the point where my life began. Many foolish humans think that I am an angel, and some of the most intelligent and educated people share this view too. There are some who believe that I am the 'Head Angel' and for this reason I am famous for being the teacher of the angels. It is a well-known fact that the people of the world know very little about me, as to who I am, and how I came in to the situation that I am currently in. They have very little understanding of this. Due to the limited knowledge of man and his imperfect intellect, his specific individual nature, his mischievous mind, I swear the events that I am narrating are true and correct. At the time when I was born, 124000 years had lapsed since the universe had come into formation.<br />

Before I commence with my autobiography I would like to request that at this moment in time I do not have a translator present who can write my sequence of events as I dictate them. It is evident that I will not be able to participate in both events simultaneously, I do not have the time and not is there a need for me to do so. My objective is to bring into light the events of my life and my biography and for this it is not necessary for me to worry about or be concerned about precedence and delay. The only thing the readers of the events of my life need to question is: why did I not keep this secretive system hidden and intact?<br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: left;">
<b><u>BIRTH</u></b></h2>
The time of my birth and the situation prior to it is so vast and immense that the intellect of mankind cannot begin to comprehend even the most outer boundaries of this knowledge. In order to get this naive man to understand the situation I have to write every-thing systematically in detail. Because man is a clay statue of inadequate intellectual capacity and due to his restricted intellect and wisdom he is never prepared to believe and accept. And so in order for me to get this immature man to comprehend. I have to meticulously describe the incidents that occurred prior to my birth and explain as to why the situation on earth is in the current state that it is in.<br />
<br />
The first thing that I need to explain to you is why the universe was created and how it was created.<br />
<br />
How did the universe come in to existence? I am very well versed with the answer to this question and indeed I was taught the knowledge of the universe. But why did the universe come into being? I only have one answer to this question and no one has the nerve to dare to refute the answer.<br />
<br />
The Loard Creator was asked:<br />
"O Loard what is your purpose for creating the universe? Why was this whole story play enacted out"?<br />
<br />
The reply received from the Most Wise was:<br />
"I was a Hidden Treasure; it correctly came into my knowledge that I be recognized, so I created the universe."<br />
<br />
Now tell me who can argue against this and what room is there left for dispute when the Creator has Himself told you that 'it perfectly came in to My knowledge that I be recognized and for this reason I created the universe?'. Then what right has anyone got to raise another question? Thank God that the Creator has Himself answered this question Himself.<br />
<br />
Next remains the question as to how the universe was created. Let me tell you that I know the answer to this question very inherently. Why don't I just clearly tell you that my Lord Creator has explained this to me in various times and stages. Some of the answers were explained to me without me having to find out and some were taught by virtue of the cognition of the Lord God by the angels. I have been granted this education and thought it necessary to explain to you how the universe came into fashion before I commence with the events of my life. The situation was as follows:<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Yet we long to hold
life static and so save ourselves form the darkness and chaos that are around
us. We have built so many walls and concepts to protect ourselves from life’s
unending metamorphosis. We even try to remain young, to keep our bodies in some
idealized image of youth or beauty. Our goals and ideals offer a crystallized
view of the future, frozen into an image for which we work and aspire. And so
we deny the very reality of life, which becomes a monster from which we try to
escape. Are we so frightened of what life has to offer us that we need to deny
its essential nature of change?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">If life does not
change, it dies, and yet paradoxically we are so frightened of death that we
try to hold back the flow of Life. Without knowing it, we are caught in a
masculine idealized image, a longing for perfection that denies the feminine
with its understanding of darkness, decay and destruction. Without darkness
there can be no birth: nothing creative can take place. Without destruction
there can be no cycle of life, only a sterile environment in which nothing
grows. If we do not accept the darkness, life will lose whatever meaning it has
left. If we do not allow ourself to live in the darkness, the doors of
revelation will remain closed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Initiates have always
known that rebirth only happens in the darkness. In the moist darkness of the feminine, new life is conceived and
carried. Should our culture be different, reborn only in the light, in the brightness of consciousness?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">When we envisage a
future of technological or scientific progress, we avoid the darkness, just as
we have turned away form the primal power of the feminine that is the real
giver of life. And so the sterility of our disbelief surrounds us, because we
do not dare to welcome the darkness, the unknowing, the wisdom of the feminine.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Life demands darkness:
just as the river surface sparkles in the sunlight, so does it have its depths.
In the depths there is silence, there is slow-moving balance to the myriad
reflections of the surface. The depths carry a quality of life that is
essential, even if it is unknowable. We cannot afford to live much longer only
on the surface of life. The real promise of our future demands that we accept
the darkness of our own destruction and greed, and discover within this
darkness the seeds of our own unhappiness: how we have denied ourself something
essential to life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Yet our fat-moving
culture seems to have little time for introspection or descent. We are
continually bombarded by demands, by the problems or achievements that require
our immediate attention. The darkness is an outsider, unwanted, rejected. We
see only the destructive powers of darkness, the way it can disturb our
ambitions, deny us what we want. The darkness holds a gun or knife to rob us of
our possessions. Its potential for rebirth, for resurrection, for revelation,
has been long purged from our collective thought –forms. When the priests came
with their soldiers and swords to destroy the temples of priestesses and cut
down their sacred groves, the potency of darkness was trampled underfoot. For a
while this wisdom was carried by the Gnostics and alchemists, but the religious
hierarchies of masculine power were thereatened by something they could not
control, and persecution followed. Yet the flow of life needs darkeness, needs
the depths; and the feminine carries the instinctual wisdom ofo what is. She
knows the simplicity of life, how it comes into being and is always a mystery
and wonder. She holds this knowledge in her body, in her very nature.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"> In the bright light of masculine
consciousness, each object stands our clear and distinct. In the diffuse
consciousness of the feminine, the patterns of relationship are more visible.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The feminine carries
the connections of all of life within her, and for many centuries this has been
her secret. Even when the masculine degraded and punished her, abused and
rejected her instinctual understanding, she still carried this wisdom; even as
it became hidden from their own conscious knowing. Now this wisdom is needed.
It can no longer be hidden, but needs to become conscious.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The connections of life
are all around us. But while men may know this is abstract, women carry this
understanding in the cells of their body. They feel the pulse of life in a way
that is inaccessible to men. Cells of woman’s body carry a light that is not
present in a man’s body. This is because she is a part of the sacred mystery of
creation. She is always a part of the whole of life. Her knowing is not
abstract but lived.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The connections of life
carry the seeds of the future, of what is being given to humanity. It is
through these connections that the energy of life flows. Our understanding of
the energy flow of life depends upon our knowledge of the interconnectedness of
all of life and how these connections are made. We also need to know how
connections can become damaged, torn, destroyed, and how to repair, to mend
what has been broken. We need to regain the knowledge of how the threads of
life are woven, how the tapestry of creation is formed. We need to bring this
feminine wisdom into consciousness so that we can learn to relate to the whole
of life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">We can only work with
the flow of life when we understand the connections through which life flows.
We need to regain an understanding of the dynamics of the relationships that
bind together all of creation. The feminine holds this natural knowing within her
body the sacred essence of creation. But to protect his sacred knowing from the
ravages of the patriarchy and its misuse of power, she hid her wisdom. It was
never written down in books, but transmitted from mother to daughter, from
priestess to initiate. Then, when the wise women were persecuted and burned,
when it became no longer safe to have any access to his knowing, it was pushed
into the unconscious.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Many times in the
course of humanity, esoteric wisdom has been hidden and so protected from misuse.
Sometimes this wisdom can never be regained: for example, many of the secrets
of sacred geometry have been lost forever. But if there is a real need, then
the wisdom can be recovered. Certain sacrifices have to be made, however. The
women who hold this knowledge are still fearful of the power of the patriarchy
and its potential for misuse. They carry in their ancient memories the scars of
persecution, and often a deep anger towards the masculine. But they have to put
aside their own misgivings, and bring their inner knowing into the light of
consciousness. Certain connections need to be made within the foreseeable
future. If these connections are not made then humanity will move into the dark
ages that so often follow the end of a civilization.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">If the connections of
life are made known, then light can travel through these connections, awakening
centers of consciousness within humanity. The light of masculine consciousness
cannot find these centers without the full participation of the feminine. The
connections cannot be made that will awaken then. Without the activation of
these centers of consciousness, humanity cannot take the next step in its
spiritual evolution. It will not have access to the wisdom power, and love that
it needs. His manity will then remain fragmented, rather than learning to
function as a dynamic, interrelated whole patterns of energy-flow around the
planet will remain dormant, or function on a lower level. Once again humanity
will have missed an opportunity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

renowned scholar, Ibn Rushd had translated the teachings of Aristotle and was a
good friend of Hazrat Ibn Arabi’s (RA) father. He had heard about Sheikh Ibn

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">“When I entered the
house, Ibn Rushd excitedly said, ‘Yes!’ I also said ‘yes’ in reply. He was very
happy as he believed that I understood exactly what he meant. I became aware of
his habitual happiness and then said ‘no’ as well. Ibn Rushd’s facial
expression changed. It looked like he had been thinking about something for a
while and was now in doubt about it. He asked me, ‘What solution have you found
through revelation?’ I replied, ‘Yes and no. the self runs away from its origin
between ‘yes’ and ‘no’, and their necks are removed from their body.’ Listening
to this, Ibn Rushd became pale. He understood the mechanism that I had pointed
out to him and began to shiver as he praised the Lord, saying , ‘There is
neither might, nor power (except God).’<o:p></o:p></span></div>

him again With the blessing of the Lord, he came before me in the world of the
unseen where there was a veil of light between him and myself. I was able to
see him through the veil, but he was unable to see me. He was not even aware
that I was aware as he was so engrossed in his contemplation.’<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The great Sufi
scientist Huzoor Qalandar Baba Auliya said: “It is the very same ‘real being’,
the self from which there is no separation from God, and it is the first step
towards cognizing Him. If the ‘self’ is deprived of the congnition of God, it
considers itself separate from God. <b><i><u>There are many stages of the self </u></i></b> becoming consumed with the attributes of God.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The first step is <b>Belief</b>. There are verses about belief
in the opening of the Holy Quran stating that there is no room for doubt in the
great book. The book provides guidance to those who embrace piety for the sake
of God i.e. those who wish to avoid evil, those willing to follow the path of
good deeds, and those whose heart has the inclination to follow the path.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">They are those that
believe in the unseen. The law states, that one must believe in the unseen in
order to be introduced to it. Those people who wish to understand life and the
universe and wish to solve its mysteries, but are naïve and believe the
explanations givenby the ‘intellectuals’, cannot understand the truth of life
and the universe. The story between Hazrat Ibn Arabi (RA) and Ibn Rush is a
good example of this. The intellect was represented by the first ‘yes’, whereas
the truth of life was hidden in the ‘yes and no’.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The Nasma is the
balance between these two. In other words, Nasma is the name given to the base
rays (or waves) of movement, that are responsible for the formation of any
being. These lines are spread around us in space in such a way that there is no
distance between them, but they are not merged as one either. These lines also
act as a base for the formation of physical objects.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Praise belongs to Allah
who has send down the Book to His servant, and allowed no crookedness in it, a
straightforward Book to warn of a severe punishment from Him, and to give the
good news to the belieers, who do righteous deeds, that they will have an
excellent reward (Paradise) in which they will dwell forever, and to warn those
who have said that Allah has had a son, while they have no knowledge about it,
nor had their fathers. Grave is the word that comes out of their mouths. They
say nothing but lie. So, (O Prophet) perhaps you are going to kill yourself
after them, out of grief, if they do not believe in this discourse. Surely, We
have made what is on earth and adornment for it, so that We test them as to who
among them is better in deeds. And surely, We are going to turn whatever is
thereon into a barren land. Do you think that the People of Kahf (the Cave) and
Raqim (inscription) were unusual out of Our signs? When the young men took
refuge in the Cave and said; Our Lord, bless us with mercy from Your own and
provide us with guidance in our matters. So, We sealed up their hearing (putting
them to sleep) in the Cave for a number of years. Thereafter We raised them up,
so that We know which of the two groups had better calculated the period in
which they remained (sleeping). We narrate to you their story with truth. They
were young men who believed in their Lord and We gave them more guidance. We
made their hearts firm when they stood up and said; Our Lord is the Lord of the
Heavens and the earth. We shall never invoke and god other than Him, otherwise
we would be saying something far from the truth. These, our people, have
adopted gods other than Him. Why do they not bring a clear proof in their
favor? So, who is more unjust than the one who fabricates a lie against Allah?
When you have turned away from them, and those whom they worship, except Allah,
then seek refuge in the cave, and your Lord will extend His mercy for you, and
provide you ease in your matters. You would see the sun, when it rose, turning
away from their Cave towards the right; and when it set, it bypassed them
towards the left and they were (lying) in the hollow thereof. That is one of
the signs of Allah. Whomsoever Allah guides is the one who gets the right path
and whomsoever He lets go astray, for him you will find no one to help, no one
to lead. And you would think they were awake wile they were asleep. We turned
them on their sides, right and left. And their dog had its forelegs stretched
out to the doorstep. If you had a look at them, you would have fled away from
them and would have been filled with awe of them. In this way We raised them up
until they asked each other. One of them said; How long did you tarry? They
said; A day, or part of a day. They said, Your Lord knows best how long you
tarried. So, send one of you with this silver (coin) of yours to the city and
let him look around which of the eatables are the purest and let him bring you
some food from there. And he must act in polite manner, and must not let anyone
know about you. If they (the habitants of the city) will know about you, they
will force you to revert to their faith, and in that case, you will never find
success. And in this way, We made them known to the people (of the city), so
that they realize that Allah;s promise is true, and that there is no doubt
about the Hour (the Day of Resurrection). When they were disputing among
themselves in their matter, they said; Erect a building over them. Their Lord
knows them best. Said those who prevailed in their matter: We will certainly
make a mosque over them. Some will say: (They were) three, the fourth of them
being their dog, and some will say: Five, the sixth of them being their dog,
just making conjectures. And other will say: Seven, the eighth of them is their
dog. Soy: My Lord knows best about their number. No one knows them except a
few, so do not argue about them except an apparent argumentation. And do not
ask anyone of these about them. And never say about anything: I will do this
tomorrow, unliess (you say-- if) Allah wills. And remember your Lord if you
forget, and say (to those who asked you about the story of the People of the
Cave) May be, my Lord will lead me to something closer than this to guidance.
They stayed in their Cave for three hundred years and added nine. Say: Allah
knows best how long they stayed. To Him belongs the unseen of the heavens and
the earth – how well He sees and how well He hears! They have no supporter
other than Him and He lets no one share His authority. And recite what has been
revealed to you of the Book of your Lord. There is no one to change His words,
and you will never find a refuge beside Him. Keep yourself content with those
who call their Lord morning and evening, seeking His pleasure, and let not your
eyes over look them, seeking the splendor of the worldly life. And do not obey
the one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance, and who has followed
his desire and whose behavior has exceeded the limits. (Quran, 18:1 - 28)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

In the book ''Ahsaan-o-Tasawwuf (now part of the Bahauddin Zakariya University syllabus), it says; "Sheikh Akbar (RA) said that he was once walking around the Ka'aba after Friday prayer and noticed a man who was also walking around it, only he did not collide with anyone around him. He understod that he was looking at a soul. He offered Salaam to the soul and was met with the same. They conversed for a bit and Sheikh Akbar (RA) realised that he was speaking with the soul of Sheikh Ahmen Suyuti (RA)."<br />
<br />
In Ahsaan-o-Tassawuf, Khawaja Shamsuddin Azeemi has written; "<i><b>Seeing the sould, taking to the soul,</b> and visiting the heavens with your soul is all done through knowledge of the secrets of both the inner and outer self - and it is possibel for human beings."</i><br />

In the book '101 Auliya Allah Khawateen' (101 Female Saints), it is stated; Hazarat Ibn Arabi (RA) said, "I served Bibi fatima Bint Al-Masna (RA) for years.<br />
<br />
One day, a women came to her and said, 'My husband is in another city, and I fear that he will get married again. Please pray for me that he returns here.'<br />
<br />
Bibi Fatima (RA) said,'Very well, and began to recite Surah Fatiha. I saw a soul appear in front of her as she recited and Bibi Fatima (RA) then said to the soul, <i>Fetch this woman's husband</i>.' After some time had passed, the woman returned happily, bringing news of her husband's return."</div>

Hazarat Ali Bin Muhammad (RA) did not have a child of his own until the age of 50. He visited his mentor, the great Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) and requested that a prayer be done for him to rectify this.<br />
<br />
The Sheikh prayed and inspiration came to him revealing that it was no within Hazrat Ali Bin Muhammad's (RA) fate to have a child - no unless, someone were to give him their child.<br />
<br />
Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) said, "I will have a boy, and i will give him to you. He will be renowned as on e of the followers of Muhammad (PBUH). Name the child Muhammad."<br />
<br />
When the boy was born, Hazrat Ali Bin Muhammad (RA) took him to the great Sheikh (RA). His mentor said, "Insha' Allah, this boy will reach a very high rank of sainthood."</div>

"Does this fire burn?" He replied with, "Yes it does. It is the same fire." I took the hearth and toppled in over the philosopher's shirt, rolling the burning coals within my bare hands. The fire did not affect me nor the shirt. I then asked him to put his hand in the fire, and as he did so.<br />
<br />
-----------------------<br />
<br />
Muhammad Bin Ali, also known as Sheikh Mohi-uddin Ibn Arabi (RA) was born in Murcia a city in Andalusia (Spain). He was born on 17th Ramdan-ul-Mubarak, 560 Hijiri. At the age of 20, he attended a party in Ishbiliyah. Drinks were on offer after the meal and the decanter made his way to him. As Sheikh Mohi-uddin Ibn Arabi (RA) held the cup in his hand he heard a voice from the unseen, "Is it for this that you were created?"<br />
<br />
Upon hearing the voice, he put the cup down and left the party in a sate of concern. He found a shepherd with dirty clothes at the door. He gave his own clothes to the shepherd and donned the dirty attire himself. He wandered for a while in abandoned areas and finally settled down at a graveyard near a broken grave stone, falling into the remembrance of his Lord.<br />
<br />
After that event, he kept himself busy with prayers and spiritual exercises for nine months. Before dawn he would adopt the sate of solitude, and by dawn would have achieved Fatah (the awakening of spiritual visual power that allow the secrets of the universe to become visible). After Fatah, the state of Abdar would engulf him, and eventually, other stations of spirituality became visible to him.<br />
<br />
Describing one of his revelations, Hazarat Ibn Arabi (RA) has written; "During the prayer of Asr at the Al-Azhar Mosque, I saw that everything was bright with divine light. During this period, I saw that there was no differentiation between the different directions. I had a similar experience earlier, hoever, back then I could only see the phenomenon directly in front of me"<br />
<br />
Hazarat Ibn Arabi (RA) purified himself and became as polished as a mirror, and was able to find out deepest, hidden truth about all things.<br />
<br />
<br />
Hazarat Ibn Arabi (RA) met Abu Abdullah Al-Tertoosi (RA) in Tilmisan, Ibn Arabi (RA) harboured some negative feelings in his heart about him, as Abu Abdullah (RA) was speaking out against Abu Madyan (RA). On a particular night, Ibn Arabi (RA) was blessed to se the messenger of God (PBUH). The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) asked him, "Why do you consider him to be so bad?" Ibn Arabi (RA) replied, "Because of his hatred towards Abu Madyan (RA)." Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) then said, "Does he love Allah and myself?" :O Messenger of God (PBUH), he loves God and You." " So, if he loves God and Me, why do you not love him?" " O Messenger of God (PBUH), I repent!"<br />
<br />
Huzoor Qalandar Baba Auliya (RA) said, "People exaggerated their opinions too much when they speak. They glorify others to the sky if they wish to praise them, and then bring them down below dirt when they are angry with the same person.<br />
<br />
People do not really realize what they say during these moments. They will talk good things about someone for two minutes before criticizing the same person later. Because of this, you cannot rely on their conversation about whether someone else is good or bad. They are being hypocritical, although they do not realize it."<br />
<br />
""To be biased is to be weak, and no one has complete control over this. The method to avoid this bias is by never speaking poorly of any one. If they are bad, leave it to between them and God. Similarly, speaking well of someone through bias will also bring you no reward: however, in this case, no punishment will come of it either. A better method to live by is to speak well of people, regardless of whether they are good or bad even. If they are bad people, speak of them as if they were good even if it is difficult to do. By doing this, you will think well of those who treat you with love and sincerity, and even if they give you problems later on and you turn against them, you will have already told others that they were good, and hence will not be able to speak badly of them without contradiction yourself."<br />

Ways of communication, expression of opinion, understanding, result and action over result, dependency and control in response to the action, success or failure is discussed when one understands what life is? Why it is? And if life is an act to fulfill worldly and religious needs then what action itself is? When actions come under discussion, it becomes mandatory to ponder over the fact that is man independent over his actions...? If he is, then what is a dependent life?<br />
<br />
Allah says in Quran:<br />
"Nay! Surely the record of the wicked is in Sijjin.<br />
And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?<br />
a Register inscribed" (83:7-9)<br />
<br />
"Nay, verily the record of the Righteous is in Elliyyeen.<br />
And what will explain to thee what Elliyyun is?<br />
a Register inscribed" (83:18-20)<br />
<br />
What did you understand what is Elliyyeen, the pious life and Sijjeen, Asfal (the lowest) life? It is a written book. It means that every knowledge is a record. It is impossible to understand life if there is no record of it. The meaning of word life is taken as movement. When we utter the word movement, it means both aspects hidden and unhidden become visible and after that hide into the thick layers of Ghaib (the hidden world). he hidden is Ghaid and the unhidden is manifestation.<br />
<br />
<br />
If one understands with the help of Divine light then Torah, Psalms, Bible, other scriptures and the last Divine book Quran Kareem explain the law of ascent (Saood) and descent (Nuzool). Instructions in this regard are given with clear reasoning.<br />
<br />
<br />
It is difficult but not impossible to figure out that on which belt millions of worlds, trillions of suns, zillions of moon and heavens are travelling? What is that path on which they are travelling towards their defined destination? Path means that way where every direction illuminates the faith. When the seeker follows the divine books and teachings of prophets, he receives guidance which is free of doubts.<br />
<br />
Allah says in Quran.<br />
<br />
"And those who strive in Our cause - We will certainly guide them to our Paths; For verily Allah is with those who do right." (29:69)<br />
<br />
Things come into being when there is a creator. Example of world is before us. One must struggle persistently to understand it not only by words but through actions as well.<br />
<br />
Respected ladies and gentlemen, with the blessings of Allah and the last prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH), I intend to present that knowledge that has been transferred to me with the beneficence of Hazoor Qalandar Baba Auliya (R.A). What is that knowledge... It is <i>"Ilm-e-Huzoori"</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Readers are aware that except Allah, everything in this world has two dimensions. This fact is evident in each and every creature. For instance, hunger and thirst, childern, family, necessities, food, knowledge and ignorance, cold and hot, hot and cold, relief and pain, happiness and grief, sleep and wake, activaiton of senses in both states, seen and unseen, life and death, peace and restlessness, besides that eleven thousand and five hundred hidden and unhidden Divine attributes, restriction of time and space and the life free of its boundaries... there are all such elements without which the word life is meaningless.<br />
<br />
It is an observation that when we are awake, despite being bounded by time and space one can liberate himself from the limitations of time and space. Its seems difficult but can be comprehended easily with the help of example.<br />
<br />
1. Suppose my name is Zaid. I am sitting beside my wife, adorable children, parents and my maternal grandmother. I hear a voice, sweet and soft; the moment it touches the air drum, I suddently look for my paternal grandmother. As soon the waves cross each other, I see my grandmother standing before me. I open, close and rub my eyes but the image exists and i become lost in the past.<br />
<br />
Dear readers. You must have also experienced it. If we consider it the out come of thought then It's a matter of significance that we don't act unless the waves of thoughts are displayed on the screen of out mind. We go to cinema. Every home has a television; Ethical and unethical programs are being aired but their source waves are not visible. And when the waves hit the screen, the pictures hidden in the waves become visible.<br />
<br />
Elders and Friends are requested to think deeply that when Zaid, you or I take juice, are not the waves of juice that provides us information similar to that of radio, TV or mobile phones....?<br />
<br />
A thing cannot be taken by any mean if lens in camera doesn't appear and then disappear after taking the picture. If eye is analogous to camera and camera film as the human brain, it would be said that the eye of camera which wa earlier close, opens.... Shutter falls (functioning of shutter is equivalent ot the blinking of lashes), lense captures the image and transfers it on to the brain screen.<br />
<br />
Is not the act of camera and eye similar to hide and seek...? If yes, then how camera lens saw the grandmother who was not present physically...? And the moment eye twinkled, grandmother disappeared.<br />
<br />
I am watching an object with open eyes, the pupil works like a camera lens, the lashes blink like a shutter and then what happened....? Then what happened...? Slove the puzzle.<br />
<br />
2. Also consider that our conscious is suspended. We are sleeping. No sooner we shut the eyes than the other eye which is inside us.... opens. We do everything which we do when we are awake. Our physical body is unaware and conscious is suspended. Whether the bed is soft or hard, we sleep and while sleeping we remain unaware of the surroundings.<br />
<br />
3. In the dream we are enjoying picnic with friends. We have fish, Kebabs, Sandwiches, Biryani and various other food items on paper plates along with soft drinks. Is there any difference between the two states, sleep and awake... if yes then what is that?<br />
<br />
Dear readers, I explained you a fact from the teachings of my teacher Hazoor Qalandar Baba Aulia (R.A) from three diverse aspects.<br />
<br />
There are 23 classes taught in spiritual sciences. In spiritual Sciences, knowledge is learnt in three ways. Tasawwuf terms them as<br />
<br />
1. Summary ( Ijmall )<br />
2. Explaination (Tafseel )<br />
3. Secrets (Asrar)<br />
<br />
If readers thoroughly read "Message of the day", these three aspects will illuminate minds. Inshallah.<br />
<br />
Read it thrice if the secrets don't unfold and write to us whatever you understood.<br />

Two little boys were playing together.<br />
<br />
One of them saw a nut on the ground.<br />
Before he could pick it, the other boy took it.<br />
<br />
The first boy demanded, "Give me the nut. It's mine. I saw it first".<br />
<br />
The other boy replied, "It's mind, I took it".<br />
<br />
This led to a quarrel.<br />
Just then a tall boy came that way who said, "Give me the nut and I'll settle your quarrel".<br />
He split the nut into two parts, took out the fruit-see. He gave one half-shell to one boy and the other half-shell to the other.<br />
<br />
He put the fruit seed into his mouth and said, "This is for settling your quarrel".<br />

"Two feathers, please," the stout stall man murmured, his eyes were narrow and sharp and his face had a permanent look of disgust.<br />
<br />
Currency in the parrot world was measured through feathers; the brighter the colour of the feather, the higher it was valued.<br />
<br />
Glider handed the stall man two feathers and picked a bag of chillies.<br />
<br />
"You get them for free?" Glider asked the disgusted man, "the chillies?"<br />
<br />
"Aye," the stall man hissed in reply. "We all do,"<br />
<br />
"There is a lot of money in the business," another man joined the conversation - his left leg seemed a bit limp. "Are you interested kid?"<br />
<br />
"Of course!" Glider leapt at the opportunity. "If you could guide me."<br />
<br />
"See that" the disgusted man pointed to a huge wooden box that lay at the end of the market. "Every morning, chillies are harvested from there."<br />
<br />
Harvesting took place every morning when the stall men came to work. There were dozens of chillies in the box every morning and the stall man who appeared to work early had the advantage of picking the best chillies in the box.<br />
<br />
"Where do they come from?" Glider broodingly asked.<br />
<br />
"Been doing business for seven years kid." the disgusted man snorted."Never felt the need to know." After handing a bad of chillies to a customer, the disgusted man continued, "The chillies appear and we make our money - that's all I care about." The parrot counted the money in his bushy hand, the green in his eyes glowing.<br />
<br />
The whole town seemed to be without town seemed to be without motion. Sleep had taken everything. The silence seemed akin to being deaf; not a single creature moved in the late hour. All life, all motion that filled the town during the day was all but drained during the night. Everything was almost lifeless: almost dead.<br />
<br />
Curiosity kept him wide awake, alert to every movement and sound. The weak branches he perched upon barely supported his weight, as the leaves rustled continuously. He gazed at the sky. The black sky was slowly catching light; shades of blue started to appear on the horizon. He had been sitting there for five hours and his legs felt numb, his head felt heavy, and his body ached from sheer exhaustion, but he sat there adamantly. Glider peeked at the wooden box every now and then, but to his disappointment it just sat there empty. The appearance of the chillies was an unsolved mystery and Glider was simply too curious to let it go. He had to know, he had to find out.<br />
<br />
"Maybe they grow within the box?" Glider tried to reason with himself, but upon closer inspection, found that there was no evidence to support his theory. The box showed no sign of chillies. Only a musty smell occupied it.<br />
<br />
He was too tired now.<br />
<br />
"It was a hopeless idea," he said, scolding himself. His eyelids had become heavy, and his head began to droop: sleep was conquering him slowly. Images started appearing in his head. Images of his mother, images of Mr.Green, and images of the stall men - all of their voices thundered in his head, al of their images twirling together, moving round and round inside his little head, He was about to fall form the branch when he suddenly snapped back into consciousness. He glanced at the sky which seemed blurred; shades of blue suspended.<br />
<br />
Then, something peculiar caught his eye, something peculiar caught his eye, something that startled him. His eyes sprung open, his vision cleared, and his breathing accelerated.<br />
<br />
"This can't be," he whispered in disbelief. It sat way beneath the sky, beneath the trees, but outside the vicinity of the cage. There was a figure - a parrot.<br />
<br />
The international science committee of the parrot world had informed the parrot population that life did not exist outside the cage. That the trees outside the cage did not bear life, and that the parrots in the cage could not visit the Unknown without support. Further research into the Unknown had resulted in telescopes being formed and parrots were even launched into the Unknow, but little success had been achieved. Hence, another custom of the parrot community was to reject all theories that approved of life in the Unknown. Despite this belief, incidents of life being seen outside the cage were heard of, and the concept was beginning to catch the interest of many people.<br />
<br />
Just when Glider was about to hail the silhouette outside, and abrupt bang captured his attention; it came from the wooden box. Turning to look at it, Glider saw it suspended in the air. Hir eyes widened, his mouth dropped open, and his breathing accelerated once again.<br />
<br />

<br />
He remembered a conference he had visited recently; 'The Annual Science Conference', where intellectuals from across the world had visited. The prolonged debate had been about the use of wings - many had come forward to present their stance.<br />
<br />
"It helps us parrots keep balance," a scientist from the East cage wing demonstrated through a presentation of his research.<br />
<br />
"It keeps us warm and prevents our bodies from getting too cold," another scholar explained.<br />
<br />
"Perhaps they are there to help us fly," said another. Silence took hold of the once noisy hall suddenly. Everyone stared at the speaker with petrified faces and whispered to one another, their pointy eyes wide in horror.<br />
<br />
"That is completely nonsense!" They all yelled. This was the custom in the world of parrots. Inside the cage, no one dared talk about the possibility of flying outside. The outside world which the caged parrots referred to as "the unknown" was a place feared by everyone.<br />
<br />
"We can't go outside," Mr.Green's mother had said to him once, when he had asked where his late grandmother was. "Only the dead can see the Unknown."<br />
<br />
That night had been particularly wet. Dark clouds invaded the sky, thunder roared its victory through out the region, heavy rain hindered vission, and the cold had penetrated everyone's bones.<br />
<br />
"A world awaits us out there." Triumph and fear flashed through his eyes; his questions were finally being answered, and his blind eyes were seeing light.<br />
<br />
"you cannot!" She stared at him in horror. Her heart had been thumping wildly that night, as she trembled through either cold or fear. Her husband seemed like another person altogether - she could hardly recognize him. He was too different, too foreign; an alien.<br />
<br />
"They restrain us, they hold us back when we... When we can fly." He stared at the sky, his face illuminated only momentarily by strikes of thunder.<br />
<br />
"Think of your mother," she struggled to say. "And... And your father." It seemed as if all of her power and strength had been wrenched from her. "Think about Glider!" He throat had dried, and her voice was hoarse.The fear of Glider losing his father paralyzed her.<br />
<br />
"Forgive me," he said, and in a flash, he had gone; gone into the Unknown.<br />

Several wooden stalls made a line down the busy market. "Chillies! Chillies!" they wailed, their lound voices echoing throughout. The market place was crowded with all sorts of people; men in suits, women, children, and parrots from all around the world visited as it was the only market in the world. 'The Red Market' the entrance sign read.<br />

Dark clouds invaded the sky, thunder roared its victory throughout the region, heavy rain hindered vision, and the cold had penetrated everyone's bones.<br />

He felt lost; incomplete. He felt as if a part of him, a part of his soul, was missing. From the moment he was born he felt a natural inclination towards the sky. It was so vast and so beautiful. It felt as though the sky called to him, welcomed him somehow, and yet he and those around him. welcomed him somehow, and yet he and those around him had never attempted to approach it: why? He often questioned his elders. "Shush,:" they would answer. It was prohibited to talk about the sky or even anything related to it. But Glider's questions about the sky and flight did not cease.<br />
<br />
Glider was a curious kid at school, always eager to learn and discover new things. He was an excellent student and his teachers were very fond of him. "Alwyas wanting to learn more," they would often comment.<br />
<br />
It was a warm afternoon when Glider approached his teacher Mr.Green at school, rather anxiously. "All of this education Mr. Green," he suddenly began. "It seems to be getting us nowhere."<br />
<br />
Mr.Green was Glider's favorite teacher; he would often discuss with him for hours on various theories and philosophies - Mr.Green never grew tired of answering his questions. He was a renowned scholar, popular for his books and philosophies and even he had rarely seen a student like Glider.<br />
<br />
"Why would you say that, Glider? He replied, surprised at Glider's abrupt statement.<br />
<br />
"Mr.Green, we stand at the same place we stood many years ago. There haven't been any major discoveries or inventions even after the number of intellectuals and scientists greatly increasing."<br />
<br />
"I disagree, Glider. There has been progress," Mr.Green remarked.<br />
<br />
"No Sir, With time we only undergo doubt. More uncertaintly is what we call progress."<br />
<br />
This statement astonished Mr.Green. Given Glider's young age, such a statement had been very profound. He at once knew that Glider was a very special child and was destined to fly high.<br />
<br />
"We are caged Sir," Glider said to his teacher one day. Mr. Green had stared at him in disbelief and immediately ordered Glider to leave, thinking that the line of thought Glider had was not one he should pursue. Mr.Green travelled home that day and examined at himself. He saw a small green moustache, a protruding, red beak and a pair of green wings.</div>
