Making Intention (Niyat)

There are trillions of cells operating in the brain through which an electric current flows. Through this electric current thoughts keep passing to the conscious and subconscious, through the subconscious on a much larger scale. Just as there are trillions of cells in the brain, similarly there are trillions of compartments or sections in the brain. There is a section in which the electric current keeps taking photographs and distributes them. This photo is either very dark or very bright. There is another section which stores important matters. In these important matters are included those matters which the conscious disregards and which we can call spiritual abilities. When one makes the intention to pray whilst holding up both hands to the ears so that the thumbs are touching the ear lobes, a particular electric current using an extremely fine vein as its medium passes into the brain. After entering the brain it charges up the cells in the section of the brain that contains spiritual abilities. When these cells are charged they produce an outburst of light in the brain. This outburst of light affects all the nerves and causes them to be attentive towards that section of the brain containing spiritual abilities. Along with this there is a fast electric current transferred to the hand through the brain. After اَللّٰہُ اَکْبَرُ and removing the hands from the ears the hands should be tied at the navel. Electric current using the extremely fine vein again as its medium gets stored in the navel, which is a minor generator. By tying the hands below the navel the sexual organs, which are very powerful members of the electric system, are provided with strength so that mankind may stay distinguished and exalted from amongst other species. Next,

سُبْحَانَکَ اَللّٰھُمَّ

is recited. As soon as these words are pronounced, the soul with all its energy gets absorbed in divine attributes, and the light of Allah's attributes penetrates the whole physical body. Every atom of the body becomes occupied in declaring Allah's divinity. It is the statement of Allah:-

 

واَنْزَلْنَا ھٰذَ الْقُرْاٰنَ عَلیٰ جَبَلٍ لَّرَایَتَہٗ خَاشِعًا مُّتَصَدِّ عًا مِّنْ خَشْیَۃِ اللّٰہ

‘If we had caused this Quran to descend upon a mountain, thou (Oh Muhammad) verily hadst seen it humbled, rent asunder by the fear of Allah’ (Sūrah Hashr, 21)

 

Ayat Muqadsa states that as soon as one starts performing Prayer those abilities which can store divine lights are produced, those abilities which even the mountains cannot bear.

 

 

After سُبْحَانَکَ اَللّٰھُمَّ when one recites the Quran, he negates himself on the conscious level and the divine lights of the Quran are manifested in front of him. He declares that there is no doubt that Allah has made him capable and worthy of seeking the favours of the Divine Lights contained in the Quran.
