Bismillah irRahman irRahim
I have read in the book of my father, may Allah Taala bless him with His Mercy and Love, and may He exalt his status in Paradise, that when Allah Taala asked the spirits, who were to come in this world -- "Am I not your Cherisher (Rabb)?" -- they said -- "Why not". I have read my father, may Allah Taala bless him with Mercy, write that the Spirit that took lead to other spirits in saying "Why not", was the spirit of the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. The other spirits who raised their voice after him, were as follows:
- The first group of spirits who joined the voice of Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. in saying "Why not" was the group of the spirits of Rusul a.s. Later Allah Taala sent them as the highest authorities on religions, and helped them in spreading His Message with His Angles and Books. They have been 313 in number. Our Maula and Hadi, the Pride of Humanity Muhammad s.a.w. was sent in the last of all, and hence door of Rasalat is locked.
- The second group of spirits who joined the voice of Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. in saying "Why not" was the group of the spirits of Anbiya a.s. Nabyy is the personality who follows the Law of the previous Rusool, and invites others to follow it as well. He points out the unwanted things, and removes them from the prevailing religion. A Rasool is a Nabyy as well, but a Nabyy is not a Rasool. After the arrival of Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. the door of Nubuwwat is also closed.
- The third group of spirits who joined the voice of Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. in saying "Why not" was the group of the spirits of Auliya a.s. When the chain of prophets and anbiya is over, it is now the duty of Auliya to direct and lead the people to the way of Allah Taala.
I have read in the book of my father, may Allah Taala bless him with His Mercy, that the group of Auliya is now to carry this task of leading human beings and Jinns, on to the day of Qiyamat.
Allahumma Salli ala Muhammadin wa ala Aali Muhammad.
