I was late this morning because I was speaking with Mawlana Shaykh, and he is sending salams to everyone. He said, "Tell them a lot of changes are coming up and may Allah make it easy for all of us. A lot of changes... and Allah knows best."
 

A`udhu billahi min ash-Shaytan ir-rajim.
Bismil-Lahi’ r-Rahmani ‘r-Rahim.
Nawaytu ‘l-arba`in, nawaytu ‘l-`itikaf, nawaytu’l-khalwa, nawaytu ‘l-`uzla, nawaytu ‘r-riyala, nawaytu ‘s-suluk, lill?hi ta`ala f? hadha ‘l-masjid.

 

So we said in the previous session that Allah swt has put in that dharrah, reality or the essence of human beings, in order that it will have a power of existence, He has to give to it from His Existence, because everlasting existence is for Allah swt. He is the Creator; in every essence of a human being or anything He created, Allah has to put from the Secret of Existence which comes from the two Beautiful Names, "al-Khaliq" and "al-Qadir", the Creator and The Powerful, that He is capable of everything.
 
As in the atom, you have the mass and the electrons, and without the electrons that atom is dead completely. The electron is what makes it alive; this is only an explanation for us to understand. The smallest essence, the origin of the human being or origin of Creation, is that atom that has that drop of Reality that comes from the Ocean of Existence. Speaking of human beings, let us say that it makes it alive.
 
So what answered Allah swt in the Day of Promises is the Reality with that drop of existence that has been given to Prophet (s). All other creations, their atoms are within control of Prophet (s), within the existence of Sayyidina Muhammad. That is why Prophet is the one who has been created first; his Light has been created first and these atoms need the light of Sayyidina Muhammad. And the meaning of the Light of Sayyidina Muhammad is the drop of existence that Allah has put in the atom of Prophet; that Light is from different lights that went to different atoms. 

So the one that answered is the one who all other atoms are swimming in his ocean. After they answered, all of them within answer of the Prophet, Allah put all these atoms that are coming to dunya and it is called a barzakh bayn al-jannah wa 'dh-dhuhoor. Now there is another barzakh we live in, between death and resurrection. There was a barzakh from the time they answer within Prophet until they appear in dunya where it is not paradise and not in between. Because paradise is not given until takleef, until you are given responsiblity of worship.  After that paradise exists. It is not a precondition, you cannot enter paradise. Paradise has a condition to enter it, which is responsibility of accepting worship.  When you come do worship, then tastahiq, you deserve paradise. 
 
So then, as `Abdul-Khaliq answers that mureed, he says that Allah put them in a place not Paradise and not other than Paradise.  Awliyaullah say they were in the existence of Sayyidina Muhammad (s). li anna allah haram al-jannah hatta ba`d at-takleef - Allah prohibited to enter Paradise until taking responsibility of worship. Don't say, "I am going to enter Paradise without worship." You might believe in Allah and Prophet; you could enter as you have belief, but you have not done worship. Judgement is for Allah swt. You might believe but you don't do worship.  
 
That atom has been saved. Allah does not need a freezer to freeze it as they are saving today. So that atom that has that portion of that light from that drop inside it cannot appear in dunya without the blow of the two angels, that they blow in womb of mother after four months. That sperm, if we want to call it that now, you have millions of them but one of them has the secret. Not all of them - one of them carries that secret.  And betwen millions, that one, when it touch the egg, it goes into complete formation. If all the millions of the sperm will touch the egg nothing will come.  Only that one has to touch, and that one will not touch without the order of those two angels. And they are waiting and watching and navigating that sperm like a spaceship to that egg in order to fertilize each other. In order to show His Greatness, Allah created millions of sperm every time; four, five, six millions and all have been navigated, but that one, one of them, has to be directed and navigated through to the egg in order to fertilize that one that has the secret. The others don't carry. Millions of miles or kilometers compared to its size and through many obstacles, until they reach. And even that egg and the sperm, the right egg and right sperm connect - if the final blow doesn't come from angels it doesn't come to dunya, it goes and dilutes itself. 
 
That means by Allah's order angels are waiting.  Do we send the ruh, the light and the secret, or not?  So when the two angels, they blow on that level it is called ar-ruh - wa nafakhtu feehi min ruhee, that is not from Allah's "Soul", you cannot explain it like that.  Allah gives the order to the two angels and the two angels give the order to the combination of atom and light, the mass, to hit the egg and to make formation of a new child that will appear in dunya. It takes from that; all the way to maturity angels are working on that dharrah, up to reaching maturity.  Boy or girl, angels are working on the physicality of that human being: how tall he is going to be, the color of the eyes, what is the color of this, what the ears look like, what the body looks like, has to be with the power of that angel.  As that person reaches maturity he will understand; his reality will understand, that he is responsible for the promise he made on the Day of Promises.  So that is why a child is not responsible until you reach maturity. So until that happens that atom is staying in barzakh from the Day of Promises until its appearance in dunya.  "Oh fire, be cool and peaceful on Ibrahim." It is heavenly freezer. There you be clean, you don't have to worry until you come to dunya.
 
Then he said to him, "Ya Ubaydullah, now you reached the yaqeen, the certainty of understanding what I said.  If you had from beginning a drop of real submission, you never needed to have these questions and answers.  But we keep you not reaching that submission, in order to ask questions; as when you ask questions other will get answers. (MSH asks someone:  Did you write anything?  One line, it is enough.)  So now your questions finished, I am going to explain to you something."  He said, "Human being has three realities, haqaiq.  Three main realities, issues.  First: is adh-dharrah, the reality of the essence of the human being.  And it is like jamaad, inanimate - non-living, jamaad, inanimate. Did you understand that?  Not moving.  Second of the three realities, first is inanimate, the essence that is inanimate.  Second is that drop of light that comes in it to make it to move. Third is al-hayaat, it gives it life immediately.  So it is of three different levels and it has to be ready to have the inanimate atom, the light of that drop from wa nafakhtu feehi min ruhee and the third will be the life blown by those two angels.  It will go through these three processes."

He didn't finish, Sayyidi `Abdul-Khaliq Ghujdawani.  Now he is explaining.  He didn't finish saying this, but Ubaydullah al-Amawi asked another question, because as they are ascending, more questions come.  He said to him, "How, my master, awliyaullah, are you able to speak about the hidden unseen realities from the past and from the future?  Because if you speak from the future, if Allah changes yamhullah ma yashau wa yuthbit wa ijndahu ummul-kitaab what you said becomes wrong."  So we can understand. That is a nice question. 

That is why awliyaullah say "Mahdi is coming tomorrow or after forty days or after one year."  "What happened?" "Oh, my shaykh said he is coming in forty days."  It was written that he is coming, but Allah changed it.  So he said, "How awliyaullah say things about past and say things about the future if Allah changes it?  How we can explain to people?  If, even if someone in the past died and he is written for punishment, but Allah changed to put him in Paradise, jannah, so what are you going to say?  His reality is now in jannah.  As Allah said in Holy Qur'an: "kullu yawmin huwa fee shaan - Every Day He is attending to a different affair." You understand?  kull yawmin huwa fee shan. (It means) "He is Owner of that day." He change or doesn't change - it is up to Him.  "So what you can say, O my master?"  He is putting his master in a corner.  

 
He said - now his master comes tough - he said, "Ya waladee, O my son."  Still "my son", not something else.  He said, "You listen well!  You listen well and understand what I am going to say."  He said to him, "Listen.  A mureed went to his shaykh and his shaykh was a big wali.  This is a lesson for everyone," he is telling him.  He said, "He came to his shaykh, and asked him, 'O my shaykh, o my master, do I need to take baya to follow you although I know all knowledges in four madhahib?  I know all of them by heart.   Ask any question you want, I give an answer.' " 

Sayyidina `Abdul-Khaliq is giving an answer now to Ubaydullah al-Amawi.  " 'And Allah gave me power to know what is in eight heavens; I know about everything that exists there and all its knowledge.  And I know all the realities under the 'Arsh and down.  And I know the graves of every prophet, where he has been buried and its places.  I listen and I can hear the glorification of all creation, animal, and fish in ocean and I know the secret of wa ma min shayyin illa yusabihoo bi hamdihi - there is not one thing except that it celebrates His praise and gives thanks.  I can move in space by the power of tayy and I can see how awliyaullah visit each other.  I know all the secrets of the ahadith of Prophet, what Prophet opened to me.  And I have memorized the whole Qur'an with a secret to it.  I know how to interpret it.  Do I need for a murshid when I have all these knowledges?  With all that I have, do I need anything?' "  He is telling Ubaydullah, "With all I have you still have questions?  This one is higher than you by far in levels."  

 
And he is asking, "Do I need a murshid?" What was the answer of that wali?  (He said,) "Oh my son, let us say what you said is correct and we believe what you said.  But I am going to ask you something, that if you know it then I will accept what you said.  If you don't know I reject what you said." 

That means you need a murshid, even you have all these knowledges.  "Are you ready?"  Big ego. Big ego, but he is big wali, not normal person.  That gives you idea that awliyaullah have ego.  It depends on their levels.  You have ego, (yes) you are wali, you are wali.

Now he is shaking, "What, the shaykh is going to ask me a question?  Is he going to fail me, even though I have all these knowledges?" Or he is going to fail, (then) he (Ubayduallah) is going become the murshid.  He is not giving up, keeps asking questions.  They push the higher wali, trying to get out more, like fish in the ocean.  One is fishing with a pole, getting one after one, and one is fishing with a big net, taking thousands of fish together.  So `Abdul-Khaliq will say to you later, "Who is that mureed?" later will ask and he is fishing with big net.  "And I will ask you one question la`n allah al-kadhibeen (Allah cursed the liars) and you have to answer me."  We leave that to tomorrow.  
wa min allahi 't-tawfeeq bi hurmati 'l-fatiha.
