Alam-Arwah
“Bismillahir Rahmannir Raheem””Al-Hamdu Lillaahi Rabbil ‘Aalameen was Salaatu was- Salaamu ‘Alaa Sayidinaa Muhammadin wa Aalihi wa Asabihi Ajma ‘een (tauheed- risalat- ahkirat and islam-iman-ihsan)
Souls are troops collected together and those who got along with each other (in the heaven from whence they come) would have an affinity with one another (in this world) and those amongst them who opposed each other (in heaven) would also be divergent (in the world).
Here insan is in form of ruh(ujood e ruhi)
Life and death of this duniya is not the parameter to access insan.
By the command/amr of kun/be=Wujood e sirr/secreat/ilm became wujood e ruhi
Ruh =amr/command + noori/light + loves huzoori/presence/gazing + secret/sirr of allah+ filled with marifat/knowing
Allah gave ruh/souls recognition of sirr e musthapha because prophet ﷺ is the first creation(ruh/sirr/noor).
From prophet’s ruh (which was noor /sirr) entire creation/arwah was created
Prophet’s noor /ruh is kull and entire creation is juzz/portion of rasoolallah ﷺ.
Arwah/souls are collective force. you cannot understand ruh because it’s a raaz/sirr.
Allah kept ruh in alaame arwah (collection of souls)
Death is for nafs/lower spirit. Ruh doesnot die because maut/death is coming out of ruh from the cage /body.Ruh loves to meet allah because it has marifat/knowing of allah . Ruh and body(a different body suiting its environment) both experience reward/punishment in barzack .Ruh is in illiyin (pious muslim) , sijjin(for kafirs) and other places but maintains its connectivity with body of barzack. Hell /heaven is connected via an opening /window in the qabr/grave. Even a kafir is alive in qabr/grave(punished) .
ALAM E ARWAH(the world of substances)
The world of mumkinat/creatures .Things being in these are not only appearances. They themselves exist, too.
When it becomes soul in inner peace (nafs-i mutma’inna) [ascends to the world of the] spirits and joins them(alam e arwah).
The realm of God =unqualifiable and non-spatial.
The world of the the spirits =at times qualifiable and unqualifiable, spatial and non-spatial(an intermediary realm between this world and the realm of God)
This world/duniya = qualifiable and spatial.
When heart is polished and the darkness on it is removed . it acts as a mirror reflecting all those things that are found in the human body .
“We created man’s soul in a beautiful shape, and then later demoted it to the lowest grade,” (surah Wat-teen).
The soul threw itself down into the world of the nafs and became a follower, a slave of the nafs.
Everything that gives pleasure to the body, gives pain to the soul. Everything that hurts the body, tastes sweet to the soul
Allahu ta’ala made the soul fall in love with the body so that they might stay together. This love caused them to remain at the same place together.
If the body is present (hadir) then the spirit is also present and if the body is heedless (ghafil) then the spirit is also heedless.
Ruh is very latif/subtle.Allah creator of angels and souls .
Reality of the heart is in inner peace (mutma’innatun)
physical heart demands desires but real heart (qalbahu ‘l-haqiqiya) has to be in inner peace (mutma’in).
“Inspiration (ilham) is the attribute (sifat) of a soul in inner peace (nafsi ‘l-mutma’inna) that has ascended (`arajat) to the station of the heart (maqami ‘l-qalb).
The heart of the faithful is between two of the fingers of the All-merciful.
Tawajjua/attention e kaaba = qibla/direction .
Tawajjua/attention e maqam e Ibrahim =blessings (salaah after tawaaf)
When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
