Haqa‘iq al-Mawjudati Hiyya ’Aynu Haqiqat al-Wajid
The Realities of the Existences
in the Eye of the Reality of Him Who Exists

bismi‘llah ir-rahman ir-rahim
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate

From the very beginning, and there was no beginning, there was never a moment without the light which was without state, without place, without end. He says, “There is Allah. There is Allah, not after; there is Allah, not above; there is Allah, not beneath; there is Allah without sides; there is Allah everywhere. Fa a`lam annahu la ilaha illa ana.”
This was before the time when there was no time, but Allah. Then He took a handful of this light from His face and said, “Be Muhammad (Kun-i-Muhammad),” and this was the first word in His creation.1 (also see appendix one).
Allah spoke the word only once, but from this kun everything took place and takes place in its time, every moment. This kun is not repeated, but it was in the whole universe from the beginning, and it is forever. This is Allah. He spoke His word and it continues.2
When Allah, Praised and Exalted is He, looked at His face He said, “I want to see My face, to see Myself through My face.” So He took from His face and said, “Be the essence of the light of the Prophet Muhammad.” From that moment, this light remained as Allah had ordered, and the song of the word of Allah began to sing, “La ilaha illa‘llah Muhammadan rasullullah,” and when He looked from Himself to Himself, He saw Himself – God. He saw la ilaha illa‘llah Muhammadan rasullullah without separation, meaning that this was the essence of His light.3


1When He said, “Kun,” this meant that the essence of everything came, the existence of everything, the essence of the reality of everything, through His existence, through Adam, through the sight of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, in that moment. For that, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The first of Allah’s creations was the light of His Prophet.”
2Once somebody asked Sidi Abdul-Rahman, my guide, “Beloved, what is the order from your beloved God today (now)?” Sidi answered, “He created everything from when He said, ‘Be.’ But for all these things, for everything, there is a right time. He created them from the beginning and when the time comes for each thing, then He shows it to us. This does not mean that each thing is created now. Even this word, which I have spoken now, was created before. Sometimes you see that He raises something up and puts it up high, and sometimes He puts something else down low. This was from the beginning, from when He said, ‘kun.’” Also, the knowledge of Adam, which Allah wrote in his heart, and the names of everything which Allah gave him, came from this word, and every prophet carried this word. This is the Book of Allah and this is the Holy Qur’an.
3The Prophet said, “I am from the light of Allah.” And he said to his beloved Jabir, “The first thing that Allah created of the essence was the light of your beloved Prophet.”
Allah then took from the light, from the essence of the spirit of Muhammad, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, without separation and without any parts, and said, “Be Adam. Be the essence of the spirit of Adam.” Now the rijal, the kind of the humanity, meaning the essence of the light of the Prophet Muhammad, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, came inside Adam.
When I say spirit, it is necessary to understand that the spirit is more subtle than the essence, and it contains the essence of the soul of the Prophet, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, from which the whole creation came into existence.
The spirit and the light of Allah are one and the same thing, so that when Allah, Praised and Exalted is He, took the handful of light from His face, what He took in reality was the spirit.
Allah created the seven heavens and the earth and everything from this face, and this was the essence of the humanity, which was the complete creation in a very subtle state. From this essence, which also contained the elements of air, fire, water and clay, Allah made the essence of the bodies of the angels and the jinn which He created before the body of Adam, peace and blessings be upon him. He says in His Qur’an, “And the jinn did We create aforetime of essential fire” (Surat al-Hijr:27). This was the creation of all the essences, but the humanity is another thing because it has two parts – the essence and the body. When Allah said, “Be the essence of Adam,” and the spirit came inside the subtle body of Adam, from this spirit He sent the soul of the life to the subtle body of Adam, and at the same time He sent the soul of the life to everything. This was Adam’s humanity when it was full of the light. His body at that time was exactly like the bodies of the angels, completely the light, but Adam also contained the elements of air, fire, water, and clay in a very subtle state.4


4The stars are of fire. Some of them have no life on them. On others there is life but it cannot be seen with the eyes of the body. These creations have everything, as we have, but in a way according to their state or condition. And there are believers there, as it says in the Qur’an, “And there is naught among things but celebrates His praise” (Surat al-Nur:41).
There is an existence in the fire, and there is an existence in the intense cold. The existence in the fire is like that of the station of Ibrahim, may peace and blessings be upon him. All the fire of the world, both inside the earth and the fire that people make (including bombs), is one part of the seventy parts of fire which were in the beginning when the heavens and the earth started to move apart. To this moment, there is a separating between the earth and the heavens which continues, and will continue, until the earth returns to Him as it was before. In one moment Allah created the universe, but in the same way that He creates many millions of human beings every minute, so He also creates the stars every minute, without stopping. Only when a person is in that creation himself can he see everything of the life in all the worlds. When the soul of a person returns to the state of Adam as he was before he was in his humanity, and he returns to the pure light of the heavens and the earth as they were when they were in one piece together, then this is the world of the unity completely.
Adam now lived in the first garden in the world of pre-eternity (al-azal), alone with Allah, without male or female and without anything in the material way, so that there were no animals, birds, fish, or trees. These existed only as Adam did at this time, without form or shape or color in the world of Allah. He says in His Qur’an, “The heavens and the earth were one piece” (Surat al-Anbiya’:30). After that, the order came from Allah and He said, “Be the kind of the humanity. Be Adam in his presence.” Then He created the heavens, earth, stars, mountains, rivers, and oceans. Until that moment the heavens and the earth had been one piece turning about all the time. Now a separation came between them. When the soul of life entered Adam, he began to have a subtle presence, and Allah sent the soul of the life to everything. As I have said, the heavens and the earth began to move apart. They remained in this state for forty years until the earth had come to its right place. This was the second garden for Adam with Allah, and the second period of forty years in the time of Allah, in which every day is like fifty thousand years in the time of man. (Surat al-Ma‘arij:4). Before this, the earth could not have given life to anything because it was mostly fire.
When Adam began to leave his subtle body and at the same time when Allah made the separation between the heavens and the earth, Adam began to be a human being. Allah took from the earth the clay for the body of Adam. He sent Jibra‘il, peace be upon him, to take the earth with his hand in three parts. In reality this clay was not from the substance of the material earth, but it was something very holy, like a fragrance. Jibra‘il took the first part from under the holy rock in Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, and the second part he took from under the Ka’ba in Medina, and the third part he took from the place where the Prophet Muhammad, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, was born in Mecca. The presence of the human being is very holy because of this, and from that time these three places have been holier than other places. (see appendix two).
While Adam was still in his subtle body, before Allah created his physical body, He sent all the spirits through Adam from the spirit of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, which was the first spirit without beginning and without end. All the spirits were like fragrances which went out from Adam, from his nose to his back, and from there to his feet. They went out in that moment to all the humanity from the beginning to the end.5
Then Allah gathered the spirits of all the humanity and sent His word to them saying, “Am I not your Lord (a-lastu bi-rabbikum)?” Some of the spirits answered, “Yes (bala), You are our Lord,” and these were the beloveds of Allah. Others did not answer. This was the complete world of the unity at that moment with two parts – one from His right hand full of the light, and the other part from His left hand from the darkness. In His Wisdom both were from Himself. (see appendix three).

5In this case, Adam means al-insan, the human being. There is only one spirit which is like the sun, and the fragrances from this spirit are as the rays of the sun. The beloved sees himself now in his tomb, but he was before as he is now. Adam is Adam always.
After Allah, Praised and Exalted is He, had sent all the spirits through Adam, “He taught Adam the names, all of them.” (Surat al-Baqara:31). He taught him the names of everything that He had created, and of which the angels had no knowing. And He made Adam khalifa of His creation because it was necessary for Adam to give birth to himself in the humanity, and to have knowledge of every created thing. So the names which Allah gave him were the knowledge of all the material existence, as well as that of the subtle world, in preparation for the moment when the heavens and the earth came to the state of separation.
For this Allah created the human Adam and gave him a dense body and made him khalifa for all the material existence, but the deep meaning of being the khalifa was from the essence of Adam’s spirit. Adam was now to have a physical body for which Allah ordered His angel ’Izra‘il, peace be upon him, to take clay from India, Europe, Jerusalem, and Africa.6
After the creation of the physical body of Adam, Allah left him like a jug you could say, without anything. He now had a presence and he could understand and taste everything more completely than he had done before because he had both a dense and a subtle body. He began to eat, drink and sleep, and this was from the wisdom.
The first words that Adam spoke after he had been created in his body were, “La ilaha illa‘llah Muhammadan rasullullah.” Allah had spoken these words in the beginning when He sent His spirit to create the spirit of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and this was the same spirit that came inside Adam. So the words la ilaha illa‘llah Muhammadan rasullullah have not stopped from the beginning. Adam knew them in his existence in the world of Allah, but this was the first time that they had been repeated in the language of the humanity, by the tongue of a human being. And you could say that when Adam spoke these words, this was the first time also for Allah, Praised and Exalted is He, to see Himself completely.7

6When Allah sent His order to make the physical body of Adam, may peace and blessings be upon him, He sent His angel ’Izra‘il to take the clay in three handfuls. But when ’Izra‘il wanted to take the clay, the earth wept and said, “No.” ’Izra‘il, may peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah has sent me to take what He wants me to take.” And so he refused to listen to the cries of the earth because Allah had sent the order for him to do this work. (Allah also gave ’Izra‘il the work of taking all the souls when the order comes from Him for them to leave this dunya. He can take any number of souls in any moment, as Allah wills – four hundred, four thousand or four million – because all that Allah has created is between his hands, and he can take as Allah orders.) The part of the clay which came from Jerusalem for the creation of Adam’s physical body came from this mountain, but I do not mean by this mountain, the Mount of Olives. Mountain has the same meaning in this case as kingdom, and in ancient times this area was known as Nur Salim, the Kingdom of Salim, who ruled here at that time. The mountain stretched from al-Azar`a to near Ramallah and to Bethlehem, but the heart of the mountain or kingdom was this Mountain of Olives, and so the holy mosque of al-Aqsa is really a part of this mountain.
7Allah can always see Himself in everything without thing, but He likes to show us Himself through us; to show us His wisdom through us, but in words that the mind can contain. Allah is the love. For that I say He is the Hidden in everything and He is the Revealed in everything, and the hadith says, “I was a hidden treasure that longed to be known, so I created the creation to know Myself.” (Hadith Qudsi).
It was the first time, and since then everyone who repeats these words knows. This is a very deep thing. When Adam had the complete life, then everything had its life. Allah is the All-Wise, and He did not create Adam in the body until he knew the meaning of all of life and of everything.
During the forty years in the time of Allah when Adam lived in the garden of his subtle existence, there was no Adam, male or female, man or woman, and no presence. This was the existence in the garden when Eve was also with Adam, but she was inside him and she did not have a separate existence in that moment. When Allah taught Adam everything He wanted him to know, He taught not only Adam himself, but the “mankind of Adam,” meaning Adam and Eve without separation. Allah taught and showed them everything. He taught them the names and showed them everything from the beginning to the end. He showed them how many children would come from them, how many holy people He would take from them, how many prophets, and the numbers of everything. He showed them the tablet. When Adam looked and saw the words la ilaha illa‘llah Muhammadan rasullullah, he asked Allah, “Who is Muhammad?” Allah answered him, “He is your son from your body, but also he is your father from the spirit.” This was the story in the garden of Allah, but afterwards the separation came.8
In truth there was only one light, which was the state of Adam without dense shade or form, but his body began to thicken so that while it was still like the light something began to cover this light. This was Adam. The same thing happened to Eve. Now they could each see the other as separate. Then there were two. But in the deep sense you would still see only One. He was with her always, but now the light came together from two places, not from one as before.
When Adam first looked and saw Eve as a presence outside himself, they were still in the subtle body, and they took the love from each other in the subtle way. This was very deep because, when Adam saw Eve for the first time, in that very moment, also everything in the creation was created – every male for every female. And when Adam began to give love to Eve, then the animals began also, and the real life started for everything because it is all one part. This was the second garden and the second forty years for Adam with Allah.
When Adam saw his face through Eve completely, and when they ate the fruit of the tree and came into this material existence, this was the holy marriage in the soul for everything, and the knowing of the world of the unity for all the males and females in that moment, as I have said.

8For example, you see the big light in the middle of the room, from which you can take another lamp here and yet another one there. This does not mean that these lamps are really separate because the light which you see through them comes from the same source. It was exactly the same case for Adam and Eve.
While they had been in the world of Allah, the light and the essence could not make love, but the love between them had been, as I said earlier, without the body and without giving birth, since there was no body with which to give the love, but only the soul.9 Then Allah sent His order from His wisdom to make this world, and for Adam and Eve, may peace be upon them both, to be in different places, because everything needed to happen on the earth at that time. Now Eve had a separate body and existence and when she left Adam, the subtle body of each of them became thicker and thicker, denser and denser until each became a human being completely. Adam wept as he began to lose the body which he had when he was in the garden in the world of Allah, and Eve wept because she also had lost her subtle body and the existence which they had before. Now Allah sent Eve, may peace be upon her, to Jaddah in al-Hijaz, and He sent Adam to Sri Lanka in Ceylon. In His perfect time, He brought them together to the place where they were to meet each other in their material state, which was the holy mountain of `Arafat in Mecca.10


9When Allah created Eve, He created her in reality from the soul of the Prophet Muhammad, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, and also from the heart of the soul of Adam, peace and blessings be upon him. From that creation until this moment all the sons and daughters of Adam carry deep inside the soul, from the beginning, the knowledge of the Beloved, and this is also from the order of His word, “Be.” The Beloved is the real Beloved. He is the same One, but He comes in many faces. Sometimes you see your Beloved in the face of a person and you think that this is your Beloved, and you drink from him, and he gives to you; then exactly, your real Beloved is inside this person, and He came to you in this face. For that reason, when you are with him, you give because you see your beloved through the love of Allah. That is why I say, “Take the love.” And for that I say to all my beloveds, “Do you know how to love?” “Do you know the love?” If he says, “No, I have never tasted the love,” then I tell him, “Go first and love. Go and love anything. If you have loved anything and you have tasted, then come to me, but do not come to me without love. If you haven’t love, be ready for the love because the love is the real life for you; the first step to open every door.”
You see the love because you want to take the love. This is the love of Allah, not the love of this person or another one. Those are ranks, but the love is only the love of Allah. Look at the animals which have very deep and subtle love. They teach the people about the love. My beloveds, this is our case; this is the case of your father. He is the love and he has the complete love, and for that reason, he always wants to give – to give for anyone who does not have the love and who does not know how to “be.” This is from Allah, not from anything else. For that also, the Prophet is the father of all the creation in the essence, and he contains everything, which is the meaning of the words, “Allah sent me as the mercy for everything.”
10The name of this mountain, which means ‘knowing,’ came from when Adam and Eve met and knew each other. When they met, he did not know her and she did not know him. Adam’s body was covered with long hair, and Eve’s body also, like the animals which were all around them, each of which was talking in its own language. But they looked at each other, and through their eyes, they knew.

Adam looked in Eve’s eyes and then he said, “La ilaha illa‘llah Muhammadan rasullullah.” Then they came together as one body, one heart, one soul, one spirit, and everything that heard these words in all the world, the animals, birds, trees, water, and stars repeated these words of the first meeting of the humanity in the real marriage.11 Do you understand? This was the beginning of the journey in the complete existence for Adam and his beloved Eve. When their journey in the material world together was finished, they returned to the same place from which that had first come. So that the tomb of Eve is in Jaddah, and that of Adam is in Sri Lanka, as is known. From Allah’s wisdom, this is the story of everyone and the same journey. If the people know the meaning of this journey, then they can begin to know themselves.12
Allah gave a deep holy gift to Adam when He showed him Eve and said, “Look!” In that moment He put all the love for the first time through Eve, and Adam took from her. This is a sign for all the children of Adam and Eve. First of all for Eve, and then for any Eve because if the man looks at her and he does not find the love in her, then neither he nor she can take anything. But if she gives him a drop of the love, with this drop he can begin to live and to move. For this reason the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “I love three things – women, perfume, and prayer.” Allah put the real image through Eve. The woman contains everything, and you can say that she is the real ocean for everything that she has, if she knows herself. You can say that she is the throne of Allah because she has all the love. She contains

11After this first meeting on `Arafat, Allah said, “If anyone who has the outside Islam wants to cross over to the inside and to clean himself of everything, it is important for him to remain at least one moment on `Arafat. If he does not stand there, he has not made the pilgrimage, the real pilgrimage. Adam and Eve were the first people to make the real, deep pilgrimage when they first met on `Arafat. After that, they made love in Mecca, and Adam put the seed and took the seed, so that their first child from their material bodies was their first holy son Habil, who was born in Mecca. The second father of all the human beings came to earth in Mecca after the real pilgrimage. This is a very deep thing.
12The rain comes from the heavens to the earth. The rain is the love. The love came and touched the earth and began to give birth. Without this love there can be no life, no flowers, and no fruit. From the heavens to the earth is the love, and for a long time, the heavens sent its love to the earth. But afterward, from Allah’s wisdom, there came a deep separation between them. This is a good example for us, my beloveds, for all who know God. If anyone wanted to know God without love, he could not understand or know Him and he could not take from Him. Allah says, “Give the love, and then you take the love. If you take the love, you can go deep, and you can know Me, and you can know how to ‘be’ with Me. If you do not give Me your soul, how then can you see that I am with you in the complete marriage?” If the bride does not give everything for her beloved, can she take everything from him? This is the real example between the earth and the heavens, and the separation of Adam and Eve to different places. You can say that Eve is the earth and Adam is the heavens. Without the heavens there is no earth, and without the earth there are no heavens. The rain of Adam is the love for Eve, from which she can give fruit and from which she gives life. For this wisdom Allah does what He does, and this is a very deep thing.
everything that Allah created from the “drop” of her love in that first moment, (the birds, animals, plants, water, and everything). Because of this, she is very holy. It was for this reason that Allah made the separation between the heavens and the earth. He wanted to send His love to the earth. When He created Eve in her material body, after the separation of the heavens and the earth, this was so that He could give, through her, to see His love in His creation on the earth. For that reason, He says, “Know Me and see Me in everything; then you see My face.”
Eve is in everything a part of the message of Adam, may peace and blessings be upon him. She is part of the khalifa of Allah because how could Adam be the khalifa if he had not taken the love from Eve? Without her, how could he see his children who carry the life of Allah? If the people know the real message, and they know why Allah created them, then this is very holy. This is from the deep journey, and this is also the journey for Allah through His creation.
When I say, “Be one body, one heart, and one soul,” I mean to return to be the real Adam; to be like Adam when he and Eve made the real love in the spirit without making a child, as they had done when they were together in the subtle body in the garden. When a person is in that state, he returns completely to be the real Adam and Eve, and he is absent from being two. There is only One, and this is the world of the unity.
Eve then was the real shadow for Adam, and this meant that she was inside him and with him always, so that you could not say either ‘he’ or ‘she,’ but I am speaking about the ‘kind of the humanity’ where Adam and Eve were one person, meaning the human being (al-insan) who carries both the male and the female. For that reason, Allah says, “O mankind, verily thou art working toward thy Lord a work which thou wilt meet (in His presence).” (Surat al-`Inshiqaq:6).
O human being, Allah created you to carry Him, and to contain everything that He has. You are the complete image for Him. He gives you all His love so that you can continue through this love to know Him. When you know Him, you continue through the knowing, from where you came, to return to where you came from. This is your story. It is important to work very hard and to be very careful about what He gives you. Do not cover yourself with veil after veil, but be pure like you were when He created you because, after that, you return to Him. You are from Him and to Him, and are not else than He. Do not say, I or he or she, but say, Allah! For this reason, He said, “O human being (Ya ayyuha l-insan),” and not “O Adam” or “O Eve.” When a person sees himself as insan, then he stops and he walks very deeply, and he is very polite because he knows that he contains everything.
Allah says in His Qur’an, “We offered the trust to the heavens and the earth and the mountains, but they refused to carry it and were afraid of it, and man carried it.” (Surat al-Ahzab:72). The human being did not say yes by himself, but God made him ready to contain everything. For this reason, the human being is holy because he is the home of Allah. If the people know what I mean, then this is the deep praying.
Adam, may peace and blessings be upon him, was the first insan, and he was the father of all and the picture of all the material world. He was the first in the body and he is a part of the light of Allah, but the father of Adam and of everything in the spirit is Muhammad, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, because he is the complete face of Allah and from his existence came the complete world. From the reality of his existence, the world of Adam was created, but the world of Adam was a very small part of his existence. Muhammad said, “There are a thousand worlds like the world of Adam, and every one of them knows me, and I know them, and I am the mercy for all of them.” (see appendix four).
Through the mercy, the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, is the complete mirror for Allah. He asked all the souls, “Am I not your Lord?” In reality, this meant that Allah asked the question to the existence of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him because his existence contains all the spirits. And the answer, “Yes, You are our Lord” also came from the existence of the Prophet. This is the complete existence through His existence. Allah looked at the face of the Prophet and saw Himself completely through the existence of what He had created in that case.13
When Allah sent His order to ‘be the existence,’ this existence was the same as the self of Allah, but He gave it a name from His name al-hamd because it contained al-hamd, and this is Allah. But he who contains al-hamd is Muhammad.14
Remember beloveds that I told you about how the Prophet Muhammad, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, made the mi’raj with the angel Jibra‘il who stopped at a certain point in the holy journey because he could not go any further. This did not mean that he could not continue, but that Jibra‘il, at that moment, returned to be inside the subtle body of the Prophet, may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon

13He said, “Am I not your Lord?” and the word returned, from the father of the existence, “Yes, You are my Lord.” You can say that He asked, “What do you see?” and the answer came, “I see You.” All of the children of the Prophet Muhammad are the mirror of Allah, so that when you look, you see Allah, and when she looks she sees Allah. When you give, you give to Allah, and when you take, you take from Allah.
14He contains everything, but he came like a man. He came for the human beings and he ate, drank, slept and walked in the street. He, Praised and Exalted is He, says, “Muhammad is a human being, but not (really) like a human being. Muhammad is a sweet date and the people are like stones.” (from the poems of Sidi Muhammad Wafa). The people saw the Perfect One walking in the street and talking with them, but he was different from them. For this reason Sidi Muhammad Wafa says, “Be careful when you sit with the Perfect Man, with al-Warith al-Muhammadi. Be careful to keep everything that you have with him. If you go away for one moment, you lose something deep. He is like a forest, but a forest full of death. If a person goes to this forest without permission, he will lose his life. The Warith al-Muhammadi is like the sword and he is the straight way. If he leaves us for a minute, everything will be destroyed. For this reason, love him and be for him, and throw yourself between his arms always, and ask him to keep you, and to use you as he likes.”
him, so from that point in the journey there was no Jibra‘il and no angels, but only Muhammad. At that moment, the Prophet returned to the same state as when Allah, Praised and Exalted is He, took him from His face with His first word “Be.” For that reason, He says in the Qur’an that the Prophet saw Him twice. The first time was when he was with his beloved God when He took him from His face, and the second time was on the holy mi’raj when Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, returned to this same state, without separation, without humanity, without angels, without anything but Allah. Allah began to talk then from Himself to Himself, and He said, “La ilaha illa‘llah Muhammadan rasullullah.” In that moment, there was nothing to hear or see but these words.15
He also says, “I did not create jinn and mankind except to serve Me.” Here the meaning of ‘serve Me’ is ‘know Me.’ “I created the jinn and the human being because I want them to know Me through My existence.” Also, in the same way, through your existence, through the numbers, He explains to you how to reach Him and how to be with Him when you remember His name and when you know His teachings because the teachings give you the knowing and more and more understanding. He says, “Fear Allah and He teaches you.” He teaches you when you pray for His face, not because you are afraid of His fire or because you want Him to put you in the garden, but you pray to Him because you want to know Him. If you do not give the love, how can you take anything from your Beloved? He says to you, “If you love Me, destroy everything. Leave everything behind you and come to My face because I want to give you My face, but through the knowing.” Most people are as the Qur’an says, “There is a part of the people that wants the dunya and the other part wants the hereafter,” because they want to be in the garden. I ask them, “Who wants Allah?”
The beloveds of Allah do not look to the left or to the right, and none of them asks Allah for either the dunya or the hereafter, but only for His face. How can you find His face? Only through the knowing, and through listening to His word. Every word in the Holy Qur’an has a fragrance and a taste. Whoever wants to be with the bride of Allah must give the complete price. And what is the complete price? It is your soul. Your Beloved would like you to make
