1. S
Reality of Rasul Allah
Sallalahu alayhi wa sallam
23 August 2013 & 7 September 2013
a Sadaqayan Circle presentation

2. Haqiqat – Why we need to
understand it?
S If you look at our society, the
general conditions of Muslim,
you will begin to realize that
something is seriously wrong
among Muslims, even those
who practice it as so called
―pakka‖ Muslim
S It is because the haqiqat (what
really is what, true essence of
anything) is removed, we have a
shell of the religion left with no
essence left, we have the
corpse of religion while its soul
has left it
S What is haqiqat? Haqiqat means
inner reality, true essence of
anything about which Rasul
prayed, ―O Allah show me things
as they truly are‖ – A parable of
a child and his mother.

3. Haqiqat of Rasul – Why
Necessary?
O My noble Messenger! Indeed you have been
sent as a pure witness and a bearer of joyous
news and a compassionate warner.
That you, O humanity, may believe in Allah and
His Messenger and honor him (tu azziruhu) and
respect (tu waqqiruhu) the Prophet and exalt Allah
morning and afternoon. ~ Surah al-Fath 48:8-9
Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered
Prophet... so they who believe in him, honor him,
support him and follow the light which is sent
down with him - it is those who will be truly
successful. ~Surah al-A’raf 7:157

4. Haqiqat of Rasul – Why
Necessary?
There are two things here: Honor
And Respect are to be given.
Honor is what is given due to the status of the
person, what the person‘s position demands, this
is demanded by his status, by his protocol
Respect is what is given from individual to the
person, its devotion of individual given to the
person who deserves.
Both are to be given to Rasul – according to 48:8-
9

5. Haqiqat of Rasul – Why
Necessary?
Point to Note
• Giving of the due honor and respect to any
person depends on realizing his haqiqat, his
reality, his true status.
• We can not render respect and honor unless
we know that person's real position and
status.
• Thus it is of utmost importance to recognize
the haqiqat and status of him in the first
place.

6. Every Purpose has a Finality
Every Purpose has a Final Culmination and
Purpose of Creation has the Zenith in the
Person of Muhammad the Messenger
When an artist intends to create something, it is
the final form, the final purpose which is thought
of first.
In the Divine Realm, the Consciousness of the
most complete among the ashraful makhluqat is
the Soul of Muhammad and this consciousness
is Nur Muhammad

7. Every Purpose has a Finality
Divine Will has a number of purposes – the
ultimate being: ―I was a Hidden Treasure and I
longed to be known, longed to be loved.‖ ~ The
Prophet was the chosen beloved, Mustafa and
Habib which testifies his position.
Also Allah says in the Quran, ―I have not created
jinn and mankind except that they should
worship me.‖
By extension, worship pre-requisite that they
should know first.

8. The First Thing Created
The Prophet himself also said, "Before anything
Allah has created my light." In another tradition
he is recorded to have said: "I am the (reflection
of the) Light of God and everything else is from
(reflection of) my light.‖
Prophet said," I am the First of the Divine
Informer (Nabi) to be created and last to be sent
among humanity and there is no other Prophet
after me.‖
This is the why he is called the Seal (khatam).

9. Mechanism to Hinder People
from the Path of Allah
While the neo-reformist section claims that our prophet was no more
than a human messenger who is no more & can no longer help people
> > > > This is actually propagated by the Arab governors and their
salaried false scholars of Islam amongst the Sunnis. (though not all of
the Sunni factions)
> > > > In particular this is propagated amongst the oil rich kingdoms.
by those Sunnis who claim they are fighting to re-establish the Khilafa
on this earth.
> > > > Recently by the Arab communist who are operating secretively
under the cloak of Islamic militancy.

10. Mechanism to Hinder People
from the Path of Allah
> > > > They ALL have a good reason to propagate this falsehood: To
elevate themselves in the eyes of the people they subjugate, by
lowering the status of the Prophet and his noble family, peace be upon
collectively.
> > > > And it has worked successfully!
> > > > IMHO you should work on your write-ups and don't fight them,
just write what is in your heart and justify best you can.

11. The Portal of Divine Love is he
Those who harmonize their whole being with the Messenger of Allah
are harmonizing and unifying with Allah. (4:80)
O My beloved Messenger, proclaim to humanity, "If you truly love Allah,
follow me intimately and Allah will love you intensely, forgiving and
thoroughly erasing all your negativity. Allah most High is ceaselessly
forgiving and infinitely merciful." (3:31)

12. The Portal of Divine Love is he
This is highest stage of love:
Anas radi Allahu ‗anhu (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that
the Prophet said, ―None of you will have faith till he loves me more
than his father, his children and all mankind.‖ (Bukhari)
This is where common people are:
Beautified for people is the love of that which they desire – of women
and sons, heaped-up sums of gold and silver [wealth], fine branded
horses, and cattle and tilled land. (Qur‘an 3:14)
Now no matter how much we claim we love Allah, we actually can not do that in
the way it demands, so we can exercise that love only towards a human being.

13. The Quranic Proof that Prophet is a
Light Sent to Humanity
"There has come to you a Light from Allah, and a Manifest Book"
(Qur‘an 5:15).
All the top most classic tafsirs interpret this Nur as Prophet himself.
JalaluDin al-Suyuti, Ibn Jabir al-Tabari, Fakhr al-Razi etc.

14. The Quranic Proof that Prophet is a
Light Sent to Humanity
• Ya ayyuhaan nabiyyu inna arsalnaka shahidan wa mubashshiran wa
nazeera
• Wa daAAiyan ila Allahi bi-iznihi wa sirajan muneera
• O Prophet, indeed We have sent you as a witness and a bringer of
good tidings and a warner.
• And as one inviting to Allah by His permission, and as a light-giving
lamp (siraj an-muneera).
• ~ Surah Ahzab 33:45,46

15. The outcome of Divine qualities
require a determining order that
governs them
• The outcome of divine attributes require a logos or determining
order that governs them, an illuminatory law that renders them and
the states of their inhabitants transparent and intelligible, an ultimate
standard
• The Divine Names: ar Rahman, al Karim, as Sabur and the other
entail and comprise the existence of the entire spectrum of human
condition – but particularly and ultimately, eternally and at their
fullest manifestation of Divine Approval and Presence (Jannat) and
Complete Cut off from Divine Grace (Jahannam)/ Fire (Nar)

16. The outcome of Divine qualities
require a determining order that
governs them
• These outcomes in their turn entail a logos or determining order that
governs them, an illuminatory law that renders them and the states
of their inhabitants transparent and intelligible, an ultimate standard.
• This is what we call the Shari‗ia or ‗Sacred Law‘, inseparable in
principle from its divine origin, for it is one with Allah‘s speech, the
Qur‘an , and the Sunna, His act of inspiration to the Prophet

17. The outcome of Divine qualities
require a determining order that
governs them
• From the point of view of manifesting the divine attributes and
names—their ultimate outcomes consisting in the destinies of
human beings, without which they would remain unmanifest—the
appearance of the Islamic Shari‗a, in its final and perfected form at
the end of human history, is the raison d‘être, or ‗reason for being‘,
of the whole created universe; and ontologically prior to it in the
timelessly preeternal knowledge of Allah Most High.
• And the focal point of this light of lights, the head of the whole matter
of its appearance, and the site of its manifestation—in a sense the
résumé of all created being and occasion for its appearance—is the
al-Haqiqa al-Muhammadiyya, or ‗Muhammadan Reality‘ the Holy
Prophet, whose consciousness was identical with this Shari‗a.

18. The cognition of the Messenger
Muhammad has two aspects
One is his outward manifestation as a human being
and another is his inward qualities illumed by the divine qualities
bestowed by Allah.
When his excellency Messenger used to focus on his human zahiri
(outward) manifestation, he used to say:
"I am human being like you."
But when he used to focus on his batini haqiqat (inward realities), he
used to say: "I am not like any one of you…" (Bukhari and Muslim)

19. The cognition of the Messenger
Muhammad has two aspects
As for the Prophet being a bashar or ‗human being‘, there is no doubt
of this, because it is Qur‘an and ‗aqida. Yet the Qur‘an does not simply
state that he is a human being, but rather says,
"Say: I am but a man like you who is divinely inspired that your god is
but One God" (41:6)
The important qualificatory phrase in this verse shows us that the
Prophet was a completely different sort of human being from anyone
else, then or now. For none of us can say he is divinely inspired as the
Messenger of Allah was.

20. The cognition of the Messenger
Muhammad has two aspects
Rather, as is said in a poetic ode to the Prophet which is often sung at
gatherings after singing the Qasida al-Burda [Ode of the Prophetic
Mantle] by al-Busayri:
Muhammad is a human being, but not like humankind;
He is a ruby, while ordinary people are as stones.

21. Rasulullah was granted the most
transparency to disappear in Allah
Just as when a piece of iron when exposed and immersed in
tremendous heat of fire annihilates its own identity and become lost in
the color and quality of fire, similarly Messenger Muhammad in the fire
of Divine Love lost his own selfhood and attained to his highest degree
of khilafat or ambassador and thus through him the attributes of Allah
was made manifest.
Thus his seeing, hearing, speaking and doing is that of the Divine's.
Thus his Baqa was the most perfected Baqa (Subsisting in the
Divine), becoming rabbani, godly, becoming the perfect khalifaLlah.

22. Rasulullah was granted the most
transparency to disappear in Allah
O My Beloved Prophet, you did not slay them, but Allah slayed them;
and in no way did you throw when you threw, but Allah threw. (8:17)
The Prophet doesnt speak out of his own volition, his speech is the
speech of God. (53:3)
Truly the ones who give bayah (allegiance) to you, in reality give bayah
only to Allah; the Hand of Allah is above their hands. (48:10)
Those who harmonize their whole being with the Messenger of Allah
are harmonizing and unifying with Allah. (4:80)

23. Witnessing requires Presence and
Observance (Hazir and Nazir)
O My noble Messenger, Indeed you have been sent as a witness and a
bringer of good tidings and a warner. (48:9)
In the Quran Allah confirms that on the Day of Judgment for each
community, there respective Prophet will be their witness and Prophet
Muhammad will be witness for all of them. This is found in Surah Ahzab
verse 45 and Surah Muzammil verse 15. These verses tell us that all
human beings who have appeared on earth from the beginning and
those who are currently present and those who will come until the Day
of Judgment, Prophet Muhammad will be a witness to all of their faith
and actions.

24. Witnessing requires Presence and
Observance (Hazir and Nazir)
But for a person to be a witness, he needs to be present and observe
the actions and here we are talking about not only outward actions, but
also inward state of heart (for faith is an inward function).
So the gnostics of Allah have proved from this point that the Prophet is
bestowed the quality of hazir and nazir (omnipresent and omni-
visionary) by Allah, the owner of all Power and Glory.

25. What is the sound
understanding?
Shaykh Nuh Ha Meem Keller writes: "The Prophet is both the ‗Light of Allah‘
and ‗a human being‘, and the inability to join between the two aspects is a lack
of understanding of the greatness of al-Haqiqa al-Muhammadiyya, the
‗Muhammadan Reality‘.
We cannot ever claim to know all of the Prophet‘s perfections, only that Allah
describes him in His book as ‗light‘; while at the same time, he had to be a
human being, in order that the Sacred Law could be manifest, and the
imperative of obeying it be binding on every human being. And Allah knows
best.

26. Becoming a Message Bearer of
Allah
Khalifa is One Who Act as a Representative of Allah
Rasul is One Who Carries the Message of Allah
End of the day, Metaphysically speaking we must all become the Khalifa, we
must gain the qualification to become the Khalifa of Allah on earth
Also from the same metaphysical point of view, we must all become
Muhammad Rasul Allah, meaning we must harmonize ourself with the Rasul as
much as we can and in harmonizing we also fulfill the Divine Will of becoming
the carrier of the Message of Allah, becoming ‗the Quran walking‘ – the
manifestation of Divine Speech, Divine Articulation and that is the end goal.
That is the Haqiqat of Following the Sunnah.
How do we know that flower of that becoming is in process?

27. Becoming a Message Bearer of
Allah
Amra Shobai Raja
Amader ei Rajar Rajottey
Noiley moder Rajar shoney
Milbo ki shortey (Song of Tagore)
We all are kings
in the kingdom of our king
Otherwise how could we have an audience
With our beloved king?
Islamically speaking, this kingship in both the worlds in human garb is
presented to our Rasul, that is why he said, ana Sayyidikum, I am your liege
Lord, Pir-O-Murshid, the Highest Spiritual Pole, the Greatest Master deserving
the greatest allegiance, bayat and all bayat goes back to him eventually

28. What are the Signs of a person
becoming like Muhammad?
When what happened in the life of Prophet Muhammad, his characteristics, his
trustworthiness, his rejection by fools and those who have tendency of covering
up truth, his struggling, his charm of personality, his friendship, his loyalty, the
fact that other receive guidance through us, all of these start to manifest in a
man, he, she has then started to become Muhammad and Ahmad.
Laqad jaakum Rasoolun min anfusikum
Aazeezun 'alayhi ma 'anittum
hareesun 'alaykum
bil mu'mineena raoofun raheem.
Indeed there has already come to you a Messenger among yourselves,
Mighty (grievous) to him is your sufferings;
most eager is he for your (welfare),
to the believers (he is) constantly compassionate, constantly merciful.

29. Becoming a Message Bearer of
Allah
Wama arsalnaka
illa rahmatanlil AAalameen
And in no way have We sent you
except as a mercy to all beings, to everything, to
every realm, to all that exists.
- 21:107
