Energy Points of Lataif e A'lme Amr (Metaphysical World) Latifa e Sir (Energy Point of Secret)

Latifa e Sir: The Source of Shivnat

Latifa e Sir serves as the energy point of the Secret. It is where the attributes, glories, and credibility of Allah Ta'ala manifest. Latifa allows one to receive the grace of Allah's attributes, just as you have the ability to absorb when you are inclined towards it. It is like putting a bottle to your mouth and absorbing the entire contents of Pepsi. Who made the device for absorbing Pepsi and Fanta? "The mouth." Indeed, it goes into the stomach, but it doesn't mean that you inserted a pipe into your ear and pulled it into the stomach, or placed a pipe in your nose, or held a pipe to your eye socket and pulled it from your eye into the stomach. That cannot happen.

Similarly, when the glories of Allah's attributes appear, they do not manifest on the head, eyes, heart, or soul. Instead, it exists in every way. If you want to benefit from the grace of Allah’s attributes, then Latifa e Sir should be mentioned in the head. 

 

Hadith

تَخَلَّقُوا بِإِخْلَاقِ اللهِ

"Adorn yourself with the morals of Allah."

 

 What is the Ethics of Ahliya? 

Adopt Allah's morals or in other words, be like Allah, adopt Allah;s like habits and those attributes which are essentially the attributes of Allah. When these things appear on the heart of the believer, on the soul, on the head, on the head, on the negation and on them, then by taking their grace, the servant is characterized by the grace of these attributes, he is created, and with his character, the glory of these attributes appears. The attribute of Allah is life. He expressed his attribute as if there is a chick inside the egg, he gave it life. Raised the dead from the dead, raised the dead from the living. Humans are not born from mountains, animals are not born, Allah created camels from mountains. The camel of Hazrat Saleh (PBUH) was born from the mountain. When Allah showered the bounty of His attribute of creation, the bounty of life on the mountain, the mountain absorbed this bounty and a camel was born contrary to it.

These attributes and these glories are expressed by some saints, elders of the religion of Ahl-ul-Allah. You understand very well that you don't talk to a human being, but when the Imam of the Prophets ﷺ pointed to the pebbles in his hand, he started reciting La ilaha ila Allah

Muhammad Rasulullah. Prophet ﷺ called a tree and it came walking without steps. The glories of Allah's attributes are also being demonstrated by the Holy Prophet. After absorbing this blessing, Prophet ﷺ's witty head was characterized by this grace and demonstrated and expressed it in practice. The sun went down, the Holy Prophet brought it back, the moon broke into two pieces, these are all the attributes of Allah, but by absorbing the grace of these names and attributes of Allah, the jokes of the Prophet ﷺ are demonstrating these perfections, the perfection of Allah. are, the attribute is of Allah, everything given belongs to Allah, but the attributes of Allah are being demonstrated by this special servant of Allah. His grace in the attributes of time and vision was given to our hearing and vision, so we also started to see and hear. 

Allama Iqbal said that:

Hath hai Allah ka banda-e-momin ka hath

Ghalib o kar aafreen kar kusha o karsaz

 

The Difference Between Power, Miracle, Dignity and Istadraj:

Now, these are all the attributes of Allah: "Having difficulty, being a bearer of need, being a bearer of calamity, being victorious." Faiz becomes visible. This is the expression of it in the attributes of the Prophets. All the miracles of the Prophets and saints are the manifestation of the attributes of Allah's Names and Attributes. When the power of Allah is directly manifested then it is called the evidence of Allah. When the same work is revealed by the Prophet (Bazin Allah), it is a miracle, and if it is from a guardian of Allah, then it is called Karamat, and if it is revealed by a Satan, it is called sorcery, knowledge. It is called subversive action, satanic act and istadraj. When this kind of Faiz Banda is on the head of a believer's joke, it is a sign that like the other two jokes, mention will be made in this joke. It should be remembered that this observation and It is the place of seeing. It is a practical demonstration and not the place of speech, but the place of the present. This is the reason why the saints do not only claim verbally, but show it by observing in blunt words. Allama Iqbal is also convinced of this:

Na poch in kharqa poshon ki iradat ho to dekh inko

Yad e baiza liye bethy hain apni aasteno mein

(Baang-e-dara)

 Example of Yad e Bayza

Hazrat Musa would put his hand in his armpit, when he would take his hand out, it would start shining like the moon of the fourteenth night. Allama Iqbal is saying that do not test the people of Allah. If you start sitting near them with devotion and love, they are sitting with many Yed e Bayza (shining hands) at their feet.

Hazar chashma teri sang e raah sy photy

Khud me doob kar zarb e kaleem paida kar

 

Musa Kaleemullah (peace be upon him) had not established his position, then twelve springs were released from the stone  which the Holy Quran has mentioned in these words: 

“So twelve springs flowed and each group recognized its own fountain and its ghat."

 Allama Iqbal says that when a believer, a Sufi, a dervish, a fakir strikes the rod of remembrance on his heart, strikes "Hoo", instead of twelve springs, a thousand springs appear.

Latifah Sir vs Greed

What is the effect of dhikr in Latifah Sir? How do you know that such and such a person's joke has gone viral and he has been assigned the position of "Sir"? He has been molded into the mold of the love and pleasure of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ? Or understand what the disease with Latifah Sir is, if it ends then Latifah Sir comes back to its original healthy condition? Its effectiveness is shown by the elimination of greed, spending wealth freely in religious affairs and awareness of the Hereafter. 

Mian Muhammad Bakhsh says about greed:

 

Tenu harf tamay dy yaro

Ty tenu e nuktyo khali

Khali nal pehnawa mera

Mein v reh gaya khali

 Example of the Greedy Dog

Covetousness is that lust arises in a person, lust arises in him and that should forget the distinction between halal and haram for the satisfaction of greed. He wants his wish to be fulfilled no matter what. Just like the proverb about the lazy dog, children are often told in small classes that the dog stole a piece of meat, and then thought where to eat it, so that no other dog would see it. While passing through the bridge, he looked down and saw his shadow. Some other dog is standing with a whole leg (Leg Piece) in its mouth. Greed said that first take away from him and then eat heartily. Barking angrily, he jumped into the canal. When he went and touched the water, the dog was also missing. His piece of meat (Leg Piece), also disappeared but the water was very fast, he tried hard but could not swim and drowned in the depth of the canal.

The Worst Case of Greed

It is like that a person wants that such and such thing should be with me only and no one should have it. One of its worst situations is when a person says, "Come on, I can't get it, so-and-so doesn't get it either."  

 This is such a dangerous disease that the Holy Prophet ﷺ says in one place:

“The root of every evil and disease is worldly lust and greed.”

 (Mishkat)  

Different Forms of Greed

Covetousness also means having hopes. As the Jews used to say, I wish we could live a thousand years and eat well and collect money and keep counting and making waves and eating wealth.

Allah said that if you get a thousand years of life, will you be saved from death?

Aa jaogy halat ki zad mein jo kisi din

Ho jayega maloom khuda hai k nahi hai

 

Greedy and Tempting Eyes

The Holy Prophet ﷺ says that even if a greedy person is given a valley full of gold, he will not be satisfied. He would like another valley to be found, this one is small. If he is given two valleys full of gold, then he will say no, one valley and many more should. Holy Prophet ﷺ says that even if all the valleys of the whole universe are filled with gold, still the fire of his greed and lust will not cool down. Greedy people pay attention to their pockets and look at wealth with longing eyes, so we were taught to pray to Allah, O Allah! I seek refuge from the envy of the envious, from the evil of the wicked, for greedy and envious eyes cause harm.

Catch Evil Eye

My Shaykh Tariqat once advised me to give up sweets. I asked the Master! Why? He said that very greedy eyes fall on these Ras-Goals(Sweets), on these Ras-Malais, on the Berfis, on the Gulab-jamans, jalebis, on the pakoras. The malice of these eyes is very dangerous for spirituality. Do not eat food from the market, because people who come and go will cast greedy eyes. It is called a bad sight. The child is cute and if the eyes of the beholder fall on the child, the child gets hurt, blood comes out. These greedy eyes are very bad. May Allah protect us all from the evil eyes Ameen.

The Wisdom of Reading Mu’awzitin (Surat al-Falaq and Surat al-Nas):

The reason for this is that the Holy Prophet ﷺ said to recite the Mu'awiztin (Surat al-Falaq and Surat al-Nas). These are the surahs of refuge. Man is protected from greedy and dirty eyes. Just as some people are greedy for legitimate things, some are greedy for wealth, some are greedy for immorality, some are greedy for politics, and some are greedy for violence and murder. The real basis of all these actions is greed. If you ask thieves, and robbers why you do these things, they will say that other people had great wealth, great money, and my heart also wished that I should also have these things. When I used to work legally, I used to get one and a half. It was difficult to get two meals a day. I wanted to become a Jagirdar (Landlord), I wanted to buy a car, I wanted to build a luxurious house. Only this greed forced them to rob, kill people or take a bribe from a rich man.

Greed and Lust are Lethal Diseases

Greed and lust is the most deadly disease and the real disease is greed. The greatest wealth in this world is contentment after faith. Greek rulers like Plato and Aristotle also held the same position that the content is the greatest rich.

Mera tareeq ameeri nahi faqeeri hai

Khudi na bech garibi mein naam paida kar

Pani Pani kar gyi mjhko qalandar ki ye baat

Tu jhuka jab ghair ke aage na man tera na tan

Muhammad’s Contentment and Poverty

The greatest curse is not complacency. And the greatest wealth is contentment. Gratitude means being happy with what Allah Ta'ala has given and with one's resources. Don't look with these eyes, don't cook resins here and there with tempted eyes. This is very bad. 

Prophet ﷺ said;

“My Poverty is a source of pride for me. “

(Al Hadith)

I have been hungry for forty days, so there is no question, no request, and no pledge. If there is no bread cooked for 40 days, no one raised a question before anyone that I died of hunger. Contentment is the condition to get rid of greed. Things are recognized by their names.

 

“When you make a firm intention, put your trust in Allah.”

(Aal e Imran: 159)

One should put one's best effort in every work, then perform contentment and leave the results to Allah. 

The Companion's Camel and Trust

A companion came to the service of the Holy Prophet. He asked how you came here. I have come by the ride of a camel. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) asked where the camel was. I had left it with me on the trust of Allah, He said. Replied it is not trust. First tie the camel's leg or both legs then leave it to Allah, its trust.

The Reason for Poverty

One should strive in every endeavor. It shouldn't be that one becomes lethargic, constantly seeking handouts, and then claims that God has made them poor. So the question is, has your becoming poor added to God's grandeur? Or will God be any less wealthy because of your being rich? If you were to receive four blessings, what harm would it cause to God? Or if your becoming impoverished leads to Him being assigned a greater responsibility? 

God Almighty Himself states in the Holy Quran:

 "And there is no creature on earth but that upon Allah is its provision." (Hood - 11:6)

 

The Glory of the Best Provider 

There are so many creatures. Have you ever seen a dog or an animal that puts a loaf of bread around its neck and then goes around throwing its hands, looking for a meal, whether it be lunch, dinner, or breakfast? How many birds fly in the skies? Far more animals than humans, creatures residing on the earth. According to a cautious estimate, the number of rats on land equals the number of humans. But this man, this species, who is blessed with intelligence, even he loses his balance, falls prey to greed and extravagance, leaves the path of moderation, and falls into the trap of greed and lust. So muster your courage. Utilize the means God has provided. If a person is himself foolish, a thief, he steals, he writes falsehood, he talks foolishly, he becomes evidently humiliated and disgraced.

There's a famous saying:

"The deed matters, not the appearance."

The Path of Moderation

To avoid excess and extravagance, one should tread the path of moderation. Never exceed the limits. Just as many Sufi elders are accustomed to asserting, it is dangerous for a faqir (spiritual seeker) to make claims. Claiming is for prophets. Prophets are commanded to proclaim that they are prophets, that they can do anything. However, the command for a wali (saint) is not to make claims. Allah's awliya (friends) are directed to hide their perfections, hide their miracles, just like a woman hides her soiled clothes, hides her menstruation garments, so that her imperfections are not apparent to anyone. 

The Example of Penicillin

Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin, which is a remedy for numerous diseases. People said, "Doctor, you have limited yourself."

But he said,

"I did nothing. This was a coincidence. I had the curiosity to experiment. It just happened to be discovered through trial and error. This is a manifestation of wonder and humility. He didn't even put this great discovery in his account."

Claiming Poverty is Not Elegant

Claiming is perilous for a faqir because claims are made by prophets. Prophets are commanded to claim, "I am a prophet, I can do everything." While a wali is not commanded to make claims. Allah's friends are instructed to hide their perfections, their miracles. They say, "I am nothing. Our excellence comes from that essence." Even though numerous miracles are apparent in them, they still say, "I am a sinner. The miracles are from Him." This is showing favor from that Master. But certainly, if someone specifically associated with you seeks blessings, makes a gesture, saying something that encourages their steadfastness, boosts their morale—well, that's different. But making a claim is perilous. Hazrat Saab used to say that a faqir is killed by claims, and a scholar is killed by greed. It is crucial to avoid them.
