Chapter No. 10 Makhlookat (Creatures) Appearance of Creatures

Creatures, angels, Jinns (demons),.and the human beings, play a vital role in the universe.

Out of these creatures, two creatures are mukalif and one is mukalif.

The people of each creature wear dress. Each creature has limbs but these vary in their features.

One creature has conical eyes, the other has flat nose with a oval face.

The eyes of other creature are like almond face is full round. The eye of the third creature is like a mushroom, nose is like a bouquet and face is round like full moon. This creature's head resembles the head of an adder.

The height of one creature is 12 to 16 feet or higher.

The other creature is of adolescent age with normal height.

The third creature is about 5 to 6 feet high.

One creature is powered electrically with a single core and the other is powered electrically with a dual core.

The third creature is just a composition of such a matter as can not be termed as light.

One creature has limited senses but the other is unlimited in senses.

One can travel on foot up to 3 miles per hour. The other can travel up to 27 miles per hour.

The flight of the third creature exceeds 180000 miles. The first creature is enclosed in the shell of a material. The other is closed in the shell of light.

The third creature is poisoned in a shell of light at the speed of 186282 per second.

One has power on the Earth, the other has supremacy in the space and the third has control in the heavens.

Creature one needs four elements to grow, the second needs phosphorus and the third requires colorless lights to grow.

 

Space

Space is a construction like embroidery on the cloth. The other portion of the universe is simply a construction; it has also signs of creatures on it. There is presence of a pulse in these three creatures, with the sense of happiness or unhappiness. But this sense is heavier as well as lighter at some points and certain places. The weightiness is due to a variable gravitational pull but this is not the only responsible factor. There is also a delicate pulse in each creature but there is difference of classification as well. One has the curtain of density while the other is lighter in density. The third has no curtain of density.

Sayings of the Holy Quran

"God is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a Lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass: the glass as it were a brilliant star: Lit from a blessed tree, an Olive, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil is well-nigh luminous, though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light I God doth guide whom He will to His Light: God doth set forth Parables for men: and God doth know all things".

(Surah Noor : Verse 35)

Upon passing by the troughs and crests, the wayfarer on way to spirituality finds the spark of light and his eternal eye opens up. Although Sufism provides guidance yet there is a condition for making friendship with God that whosoever He likes should do that.

 

 

Twenty Thousand Angels

Twenty thousand angels work with a man on constant basis. It may be elaborated as each man is a computer of God Almighty containing twenty thousand chips and the entire system is disrupted if any of these chips does not work.

Two Hundred Billion Cells

Two hundred billion cells are found in a human brain. Each cell is related to a sense, or organ or tissue or any vein. If even a single cell out of two hundred billion cells disrupts, it leaves lasting effects on the body.

Breathing Process and Air

The air passes through the body through nose or mouth and passing through the entire body with the help of different capillaries. As soon as air moves forward, the pressure increases and it gradually decreases the volume of the arteries and the air present in the lungs reaches the three million airbags. We hear from ears and sound waves enter the ears and the waves become meaningful and we can comprehend them accordingly.

The Speed of the Blood

When man gets attracted to the creations of God, a new world opens up for him unleashing the horizons of the world. The flowing blood inside the human body travels a journey of seventy five thousand miles (75000) in twenty four hours. A man travels a distance of three miles on foot in an hour. If he travels 26380 hours without any break then the distance of 75000 miles will be completed.

Heart works without human control and supply blood to each and every part of the body.

Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. The One who serves the universe.

The One who feed all the creatures.

The One who give resources to the creatures living in the worlds in their life and life after death.

The Habit of God Almighty

The student of Tasawaf (sufism) is informed by the Murshid (Mentor) that when a man establishes strong relations with God, his relation remains established with Him, and the same habits are transformed into him. The Sufi (mystic) tells his disciples that God love serving His creatures. Sufi loves his God regardless of his faith, and religious affiliation. It further says that who creates differences amongst the people is not a friend of God Almighty as God's friend is not selfish. He remains happy and contented and wants to see everyone happy. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) says "Have fears from the wisdom of a pious (Momin) as he looks through the light of God. Herbs, fruit and plants are also the creatures of God, as the growth of man takes place gradually these creatures complete the cycle of growth the same way. God has created every thing in pairs. And each side is composed of cells and external wall of these cells utilizes enough Oxygen (O )2 an d Carbon Dioxide. (CO2),

 

Water, basis of Everything

The basis of everything including life is water. If there is no water, the earth would become barren and desolate. Moisture, air and water are necessary for the survival of the human beings, Jinns (demons), plants and trees. Similarly growth cannot start if phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen are not present.

If there are no leaves on trees, their life also dwindles. Each leaf has gas and pores and in these pores runs the carbon like blood and these materials pump out the oxygen from the body.

The World of Trees

There is a complete world of leaves which provide life to the trees. If these leaves die, the trees are damaged. When these kd" fall and die then these form the manure or compost, man has not got such a power for doing this in a large quantity. There is rain, thunder, and during this process the raindrops give nitrogen to fields.

 

God Almighty Says in the Holy Quran:

"Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?"

(Surah Al Anbiya: Verse 30)

"It is He Who sendeth down rain from the skies: with it We produce vegetation of all kinds: from some we produce green (crops), out of which We produce grain, heaped up (at harvest); out of the date-palm and its sheaths (or spathes) (come) clusters of dates hanging low and near: and (then there are) gardens of grapes, and olives, and pomegranates, each similar (in kind) yet different (in variety): when they begin to bear fruit, feast your eyes with the fruit and the ripeness thereof. Behold! in these things there are signs for people who believe."

(Surah Al An'am: Verse 99)

It is He who sends down rain from the sky: from it ye drink, and out of it (grows) the vegetation on which ye feed your cattle. With it He produces for you corn, olives, date-palms, grapes and every kind of fruit: verily in this is a sign for those who give thought.

 (Surah Al Nahl: Verse 10-11)

He Who has made for you the earth like a carpet spread out; has enabled you to go about therein by roads (and channels); and has sent down water from the sky." With it have We produced diverse pairs of plants each separate from the others. Eat (for yourselves) and pasture your cattle: verily, in this are Signs for men endued with understanding."

(  TA HA: Verse 53, 54)

 

"Then We placed him as (a drop of) sperm in a place of rest, firmly fixed; Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be God, the Best to create!"

(Surah Al Mu'minun: Verse 13, 14)

 

"And made his progeny from a quintessence of the nature of a fluid despised:"

(Surah Al Sajdah: Verse 8)

 

"Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?"

(Surah Al Mursalat: Verse 20)

 

"He is created from a drop emitted"

(Surah Al Tariq: Verse 6)

 

The Formula of Showering Rain

God Almighty further says in the Holy Quran:

And the things on this earth which He has multiplied in varying colours (and qualities): verily in this is a sign for men who celebrate the praises of God (in gratitude).

(Surah Al Nahl Verse 13)

The knowledge of Tasawaf (sufism) provides us with guidance and tells that the world is very colourful and remains an integral for the creature. Each one of the universal elements is offering a sacrifice for the other. In plants, colour and fragrance and nectar attract the attention of the worms.

There are a few saplings which do not get diet directly from the earth but are fed on the nectar of other trees, when these trees get dry, and the roots of the trees absorb water then there are no chances of becoming marshes on the ground. If a desert is replete with countless bamboos, it is the law of the nature that it would definitely rain, and there will be continuous rain if the presence of these bamboos is made possible in that particular area. The lives of animals depend heavily on oxygen and its shortage will instantly kill the organism. This is a Universal system of God Almighty.

 

Laws of the Nature

This brief description on the creatures of the earth has been written down in order to arouse new thoughts in our minds for new ideas. In the Universal system, there has been a coordinated effort and each one of them is closely attached with one another. Nobody can break up this relation. This is a comprehensive system that is serving the humanity.

 

The Universal System

The nature also wants that there should not be a part of the earth that remains devoid of the blessings of the universe. Man serves the trees and similarly trees are poised to serve the humanity. Man also secures the human beings and the animals serve the humans. The air disperses the seeds to far off area. Rivers, channels (aqueducts), canals and drainage system further transport these seeds. This rule is also applicable to the destruction and creation of nations. When a nation violates or supersedes this system, it gets ruined.

The Holy Quran says,

"If you show cold shoulders towards this Universal system, it shall be given to someone else."

No nation remains alive without using the treasures of the Earth. The process of using this treasure leads towards meditation. Hazrat Abraham (Ibraheem) (May God be pleased with him) has been pondering and he ultimately declared the worship of Creator compulsory for his nation.

God Almighty says, "I am going to make you Imam (Leader) for the human beings".

Hazrat Abraham, (lbraheem), when inquired about his offspring, was replied by God Almighty as:

"And remember that Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands, which he fulfilled: He said: "I will make thee an Imam to the Nations." He pleaded: "And also (Imams) from my offspring!" He answered: "But My promise is not within the reach of evil-doers."

(Surah Al Baqarah: Verse 124)

 

The Right Path

The age of today is of selfishness and frustration. No doubt, those elements who make the faith a mysterious thing are the destroyers and cruel people. The Creator has created His creature and provided them with the best resources. The life hereafter (After Death) has been brought under the supremacy of God. God's sacred Scripture that was revealed on the Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) contains surely those teachings which are based on guidance for the believers. Each of the words in this book is full of light establishing relations between God and man His subordinate.


SUFISM (AHSAN-O-TASAWWUF)

KHWAJA SHAMS-UD-DEEN AZEEMI

Many a scholar has written a lot about spiritualism and pantheism. One school of thought is of the view that as saints often used to wear wooly dresses therefore people would call them sufis. Wool is called sauf in Arabic. They used to wear such a dress, for it had been the habit of many a prophet, saints and pious people. According to some people, as they have been associated with the Ashaab-e-suffa that is why they are called sufis; whereas according to yet another school of thought the word sufi is linked with suf a.... but all these explanations are not satisfactory.

In fact, the terminological meaning of Sufi'ism (tasawaf) is self­ cleansing. It is the name of a true spirit that is related to conscience and the light of conscience is always inherent. A sufi always thinks in the context of Allah. His talk moves around Allah. He lives with Allah and dies in the name of Allah. He recites His words and always praises Him and remains enmeshed in His love. He sacrifices everything in order to see and meet Allah.
