Dust in the Path of Love

Salam Allah, Hu MHMD! Greetings and salutations unto the Resplendent Quthb (Pole) of our Muhammadan Path, ath-Thariqah al-Muhammadiy y ah al-Akmaliy y ah al-Ahadiy y ah, ash-Shahib al-Himmah (the Master of Aspiration), wa al-Qawiy y al-Arkan al-Ma'rifat (the Strong One of the Pillars of Knowledge), wa al-Fatih al-Mughaqat (the Opener of the Locked Doors), wa al-Qudwata as-Sura (the Guide of those who trav el at night), wa al-Warith al-Khatm an-Nabiy y in (the Inheritor of the Seal of Prophets), wa al-Burhan al-Haqiqah (the Proof of Reality ), asy Sy aikh al-Akbar Ibn al-'Arabi, man y uqimu bi 'Amr Allah (he who is the Carrier of the Commandment of Allah). As we know, Sy aikh al-Akbar left quite many Shalawat 'ala Nabi, each of which is a Great Treasury (Kanz al-Haqa'iq) representing the Station (Maqam) of Uniqueness of the Sy aikh as a Unique Knower of Allah's Light, which signifies his Prox imity with the Reality of asSay y id al-Wujud wa as-Sabab al-Maujud (the Chieftain of Ex istences), wa al-Imam al-A'immah (the Imam of Imams), wa an-Naqib alMahbubin wa al-Fardh al-Ahbab (the Chieftain of the Lov ed Ones and the Most Unique Belov ed), wa al-Maqsuda as-Salikin (the Destination of Spiritual Trav elers), the Holy Prophet Muhammad. Know that ev ery Piv otal Saint (Wali al-Quthb) in a specific age must hav e Direct Encounter with the Muhammadan Presence (al-Hadhrah al-Ahmadiy y ah al-Muhammadiy y ah). He also receiv es from the Prophet a special Wird unique to him, in the form of Shalat 'ala Nabi. This may apparently be long or short, representing the Simple Unity of that which is ex perienced in the Most Sacred Presence of Allah, alHadhrah al-Ahadiy y ah. In itself, it encompasses the sev en stages of Dzikr Allah: 1 . Dzikr Thawwaf 2. Dzikr Nafi Itsbat 3. Dzikr Itsbat Faqat

4. Dzikr Ism Dzat 5. Dzikr Taraqi 6. Dzikr Tanazzul 7 . Dzikr Ism Ghay b Nowaday s, the word 'Quthb' is so often misused to simply represent a leader of a thariqah, while he may lack the Muhammadan Reality in himself. Nev er has the world of Tashawwuf seen such a sorry state before. Instead, there is something truly essential that the Quthb must know, regarding his Rank. The Principal Hierarchy of Muhammadan Ov erflowing is known to Ahl al-Haqiqah in the following way : 1 . The All-Encompassing al-Hadhrah al-Ahmadiy y ah alMuhammadiy y ah, of Say y idina Muhammad alone, who is the First Sign-Appearance (Manifestation/Tajalli) of Allah's Oneness (Ahadiy y ah), that is, of Allah's Essence (Dzat Allah), by Allah's Essence, in Allah's Essence, with no relativ e, attainable 'openness' (directionality and deriv ativ e) with respect to contingent phenomena of Otherness, other than with respect to the Div ine Names and Attributes proceeding from this State (al-Wahdah alMuhammadiy y ah), whereby Say y idina Muhammad alone is the Absolute Prophet and the Absolute Saint, the Essence of Essences (al'Ay n al-A'y an fi al-Haqiqah al-Haqa'iq) and the Lone Pearl (al-Jauhar al-Fard) in the Ocean of Being (al-Bahr al-Wujud). No one else has any share nor full comprehension of its Content (hence the term 'Ummi' (Indescribable) attributed to the Holy Prophet), for it is essentially , primarily , limitlessly One with the State of Non-Manifestation (La Ta'ay un) of Allah's Essence, bey ond 'Manifestativ e Descent/Ascent' (Tanazzul/Taraqi). This is the Absolute, All-Inclusiv e Station of Singularity or at-Tauhid adz-Dzatiy y ah, representing the Muhammadan Reality (al-Haqiqah al-Muhammadiy y ah) of Ha Mim (MHMD). 2. Al-Hadhrah al-Masihiy y ah, which is an Opening at the 'Right Side' of the Muhammadan Presence, ex isting in parallel with al-Hadhrah alMuhammadiy y ah al-Mahdiy y ah. This belongs to Say y idina 'Isa, who is closest to the Prophet Muhammad, and who is the first to receiv e his Light, in the line of Prophets. He receiv es the Muhammadan Light directly from the Holy Prophet Muhammad without an intermediary . This Station contains: 3. The Sphere of Prophets (al-Hadhrah al-Anbiy y a), from Say y idina 'Adam to Say y idina 'Isa, who receiv e the First Means of Knowledge of Allah's Essence, al-'Aql al-Qudsiy y ah al-Muhammadiy y ah (the Sacred Muhammadan Intellect), directly from the Holy Prophet Muhammad, without an intermediary . They are also Carriers and Ex positors of the Prophetic Standards. 4. Al-Hadhrah al-Muhammadiy y ah al-Mahdiy y ah, which is an Opening at the 'Left Side' of the Muhammadan Presence, ex isting in parallel with al-Hadhrah al-Masihiy y ah. This belongs, primarily , to the historic Hadhrat Muhammad al-Mahdi. It contains: 5. The Sphere of Appearances of Imam al-Mahdi (al-Hadhrah alMuhammadiy y ah al-Mahdiy y ah ats-Tsanawiy y ah), with each appearance manifest in the Reality of the Quthb of ev ery age. Such a Quthb is called the Seal of Saints (al-Khatm al-Awliy y a), or simply the

Primordial Pole (al-Quthb al-Fardh). The sphere also consists of the known Caliphs of the Holy Prophet that succeeded him both historically (in time) and spiritually (in reality ). Imam al-Mahdi and the Quthb of ev ery age receiv e the Muhammadan Light (Nur Muhammad) directly from the Holy Prophet Muhammad, without an intermediary . 6. Al-Hadhrah al-Awliy y a ash-Shidiqiy y ah al-Akmaliy y ah, which ex tends from al-Hadhrah al-Muhammadiy y ah al-Mahdiy y ah, whereby the Muhammadan Light is bestowed by Allah on a few chosen souls as an Intrinsic Gift, and not by means of the usual practical training/guidance. They need not a phy sical human being (rabithah/mursy id/pir) to train them. Instead, they are trained by the Holy Prophet himself, whose communicativ e appearance (manifestation) in them is known as ar-Ruh al-Idhafi (al-Khidhr), or simply the Holy Spirit (ar-Ruh al-Quddus). The Apex -Source of this rare blessing, after the Prophet, is al-Mir'at an-Nabi (the Prophetic Mirror) Hadhrat Abu Bakr ash-Shiddiq. The people of this State see only the Station of the Prophet before them, with themselv es mirroring the Prophetic Essence (adz-Dzat alMuhammadiy y ah). They recognize the Muhammadan Reality in a most unique, singular (solitary ) way , within and without, bey ond the contex t of their birth, continuity (training), and death. Such indiv iduals are v ery , v ery few in ev ery age. They are usually not known to other people, including Saints (Awliy y a) of lesser ranks. Their Station is also called al-Kahfi, due to its Sublimity and Solitariness. Among those possessing this State known to us are Sy aikh Manshur al-Hallaj, Sy aikh Bay azid al-Busthami, Sy aikh Sy ams at-Tabriz, Quthb al-Ghawts 'Abd al-Qadir al-Jailani, Sy aikh al-Ghawts Abu Mady an al-Anshari al-Maghribi, Sy aikh al-Akbar Ibn al-'Arabi, Say y id 'Abd al-Karim al-Jilli, Sy aikh 'Abd al-Jalil al-Jawi (Sy aikh Siti Jenar, in Jav a), Sy ah Wali Allah ad-Dehlawi, and Sy aikh Ahmad atTijani. Some of them are, in fact, the Poles (Aqthab) of the Sphere. This is the Special Way (ath-Thariqah al-Khashah). Ex tensiv ely , it is also united with the more common ath-Thariqah an-Naqsy bandiy y ah al-'Isy qiy y ah, stemming from Say y idina Abu Bakr ash-Shiddiq. 7 . Al-Hadhrah al-Awliy y a al-'Alawiy y ah al-Anfusiy y ah (al-Hadhrah al-Masy aikh), which ex tends from al-Hadhrah al-Muhammadiy y ah alMahdiy y ah by means of hierarchical chains of spiritual teachers, stemming from Zhill Allah Say y idina 'Ali ibn Abi Thalib through Imam Junay d al-Baghdadi. It consists of the sphere of all the organized, genuine paths (thuruq) known to us (essentially there are 40 of them), whose emphasis is attachment to the purified selv es of their Sy aikhs (hence the name 'Anfusiy y ah'). This is the General Way (ath-Thariqah al-'Ammah), which many people can afford to follow. For them, Direct Unv eiling (Kasy f) in the Muhammadan Presence/Reality is simply unbearable due to differences in their substances. Instead, they must follow the ex pansiv e route, step by step, towards Allah's Ultimate Mercy . In reality , al-Maqam al-Quthbiy y ah is one with al-Maqam alKhatmiy y ah. It denotes the Wali who has fully ex perienced Qiy amah (Resurrection) in ar-Ruh al-A'zham (Nur Muhammad), receiv ing alFay dh al-Aqdas (the Most Sacred Ov erflowing) directly from the Prophet Muhammad. Upon reaching this highest stage in the Mi'raj, the Muhammadan Reality is fully realized/activ ated in the Wali. This Self-Realized Muhammadan Reality is essentially what is called

'Muhammad al-Mahdi', and its Opening (Futuhiy y ah) is what is called the Great News and the Great Fire (an-Nar Allah al-Muqada) preceding the (indiv idual) Qiy amah. This is a highly solitary State of Glory . There can only be One Perfect Mahdi in a specific age. The chain of appearances of al-Mahdi culminates with Hadhrat Imam Muhammad al-Mahdi himself, who shall appear at the end of ends, with the Banner of al-Mutakabbir. At last, realizing the Muhammadan Reality (al-Haqiqah alMuhammadiy y ah) is what Sufism (Tashawwuf) is all about. Ev ery thing else y ou may witness is like a pollen grain, a dispersing wav e, or a shadow perceiv ed in y our own incapacity . In Muham m ad (MHMD), Allah's Most Hidden Essence (Dzat Allah al-Ghay b al-Muthlaq) is the H in his M , and He witnesses Himself, in His own Uniqueness (al-Hadhrah al-Ahadiy y ah al-Aqdas), in the M of his H. All in All is manifestly gathered in his D, ensuing from his being HM (Ha Mim ), without otherness and precedence in Allah's Remembrance of Himself. Thus, if y ou know Allah as Allah, y ou shall know that Muhammad is Lov e's Only Meaning in all 7 0,000 v ast Oceans of Secrets. Wa shalla Allahu 'ala Say y idina wa Mawlana Muhammadin wa Alihith-Thahirin Wa Shahbihi-l-Mukhlisin wa sallam. Mahabbah, Dani
