When ignorance and infidelity are at their peak and the darkness is
engulfing everything, God; in His infinite Mercy would send His Prophets to
guide mankind and tell them that Godly Guidance is the most basic and primary
need of man. And, this is the main source that tells us how did the universe
come into existence, what creative formulae are operative in its creation, why
did Creator create Adam, where he was before coming to this world, where does
he go after living here, how have been the earth, the sun, the moon and other
celestial system created and what are the methods of perambulating the extraterrestrial
systems? ,
Form Adam to Christ, man's conscious' evolved to the stage whence
the need of solving social, cultural, economical and political problems was,
duly recognized. God sent Holy Prophet (PBUH) to satiate man's desire to
further evolve his mental horizon. He very clearly instructed to have guidance
from the Divine Revelation; the holy Quran and told that this Book would guide
you to the straight path that would take you on an exalted position. He said,
"God has sent me on the mission of making human relations equitable and
just and service of God the pivotal of our lives, so much so that nothing could
be enjoined with Him."
Every human being is correlated with other human being only because
of the interactions of the waves of life. A gathering of happy people is turned
gloomy if even a single man starts crying, why?
Because humans are linked together like the links of a chain and if
even a single link is weak the entire chain suffers weakness. And, if one link
is taken away the chain requires mending. God says in the holy Quran,
"Hold together the rope of God, stay united and do not split!"
Unity makes the Past grand, Present the enjoyable and the Future the
bright. Since God's ways do not suffer alterations therefore when Holy Prophet
(PBUH) passed away, a chain of people of his legacy was set in. These are the
people about whom God has proclaimed, "Indeed, the Friends of God have no
fear nor do they grieve."
Auliya Allah after equipping them with the Presented Knowledge
shouldered the responsibility of guiding their fellow beings. It is only
because of them that we hear about the Oneness of God and see glimpses of the
Presented Knowledge.
.Qalander Baba Auliya says, "Holy Prophet (PBUH) is that
beloved man of God whom God blessed with His unparallel association and anyone
claiming to be his follower and not having a reflection of his great qualities
and spiritual values in him, is actually disrespect and disregard for him.
How can the one who himself is not a cognizer, make others to know
God? What charity can he offer, who himself is penniless?
He told us that if we are safe from the storms of infidelity, it is
only because of that voice of Azan (Call for Prayer), which we let a child hear
after his birth. It lets the child have the impression inscribed upon the screen
of his mind that our Creator is Allah, the Almighty that provides us with life
and the sustenance to maintain it.
In every era, people desiring to know the reality, get them
associated with some cognizing saint, who takes them on the paths of cognition,
step by step. This thing gave rise to Silasil (Spiritual Orders).
In the light of general state of people with the desire to know the
reality, selected saints and sages of different times, formulated lessons and
exercises to help them to see the light and go along the paths of cognition.
Physical and mental abilities of people also differ, from man to man
and time to time. There was a time when man was physically stronger than today
but didn't have the strong mental faculties. In present times, people's nerves
have grown weak and they do not have much time to devote themselves to carry on
the austere exercises.
In the modern age of science something is only acceptable to people
when it is presented to them in a scientific manner in a logical way in
accordance with nature.
It is the mission of Silsila Azeemia to make people considerate and
thinking. Keeping the present situation in view; the lessons of Silsila Azeemia
are made simple and brief to let the people have cognition.
