O Seeker Aalim Bi Allah and the Seeker Arif Wali Allah!  You foremost of all seek Ilm (knowledge) from Murshid (Guide) because he who lacks Ilm (knowledge) cannot identify God.  Which Ilm (knowledge) is that?  That is the Ilm (knowledge) of Tauhid Inayat; the Ilm (knowledge) of the Marifat of Hidayat; the Ilm (knowledge) of Wilayat; the Ilm (knowledge) of Ghinayat (Self-sufficiency); and the Ilm (knowledge) of Hidayat (Guidance).  The Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) teaches all these Uloom (Science) to the Loyal Seeker through Tawajuh (Attention) and gaze.  And within a second the Seeker becomes the Aalim (Erudite) Faazil (learned person) and Sahib e Tehseel (master of study).  Afterwards grants the Ilm (knowledge) of the Marifat of the Qurb (propinquity) of the Noor (Light) of Hazoor (Attendance) of Lord Mushahida (Vision) of Hazoor (Attendance) cordiality of Hazoor (Attendance) the quest (Talb) of Hazoor (Attendance) and the Lahoot Lamakan of Hazoor (Attendance) the Ilm (knowledge) of Taufeeq (Success) of the Tahqeeq (Research) of Hazoor (Attendance) Zikr Fikr (Thoughtful Recollection) Ilhaam Mazkoor of Hazoor (Attendance) the ascendance of the Majlis (Court) of Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam and Hazoori.  That person whose human body has become Noor (Light) from the top to toe with all these Uloom (Science) of Hazoor (Attendance) and with the ability of the Ilm (knowledge) of Noor (Light) he when has clearly read the Name Allah without any language and description with the Ilm (knowledge) of Noor (Light) and from the Realm of Hazoor (Attendance) then he is left with no need of Riyazat and Mujahida for all his life.  Foremost of all the Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) educates [the Seeker] through all these Uloom (Science) of different Hazooriyat and later gives him Talqeen (Instruction) and Irshaad (Directive).  After this the Seeker is unable to follow the path of err and resentment; and become predominant Aulia Allah.  The Perfect is he who lets the Ilm (knowledge) of Mujahida be covered through the Ilm (knowledge) of Mushahida (Vision); and shows the Ilm (knowledge) of Riyazat in the Ilm (knowledge) of Raaz (secret) and the Ilm (knowledge) of Mujahida and the Ilm (knowledge) of Riyazat come automatically in the Ilm (knowledge) of Mushahida (Vision) and the Ilm (knowledge) of Raaz (secret) in such a way as salt is in food or spark is in fire or like water is in milk or gold in the crucible (Boota) and gulp of air comes in human body and life.  Whoso attained the Maratib (Ranks) of the Marifat of Lord the Tauhid of Qurb (propinquity) and Jamiyat (Stability) and the Station of Fana Fi Allah (Destruction in Allah) and the Martaba (Rank) of the Perfect Hidayat (Guidance) he attained with the Ilm (knowledge) of the Noor (Light) Hazoor (Attendance); and made this very Ilm (knowledge) the Waseela (Resource) of guidance of a Rafiq (companion) Rahber (leader) with Taufeeq (Success) because no Follower of Bid’at (Ahl e Bid’at) Kafir (non-believer) and Jaahil (Ignorant) violator of the Shariyat of Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam can attain the Marifat of Lord.

The Majlis (Court) of Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam like a Saadiq (true) touchstone and Martaba (Rank) of the Saadiq (Loyal) Seeker because of the nature of Azal is the Jamaali (elegant) Marifat and the Mushahida (Vision) of Didaar whereas [in contrast] the Martaba (Rank) of the Kaazib (false) Seeker because of the instintive Jalaliyat (Lordliness) from Majlis (Court) of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam is the seeker of Kashf (revelation) and Karamaat (miraculous outcomes) vanity and arrogance fame and pomp and the carrion carcass world.

If the Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) the Master of gaze shows light and Self Disclosure of the sun of the Marifat of the Essence more closer than the jugular vein to the congenitally blind Seeker even then that congenitally blind Seeker does not like it and does not choose it.  And if the Murshid (Guide) himself is blind and uninformed of the course of the Marifat then his Seeker also always remians distressed in Wazaif and Chilla and remians caught in Rujuaat e Khalq and noise and hubhub.  But the Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) after advancing him through the end of noise and mischief makes the end of the Loyal Seeker in good.

The Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) teaches the lesson of three types of Uloom (Science) to to the Loyal Seeker: Through the Ilm (knowledge) of ‘Alif’ by means of the Name Allah lets him cover the staion of Ulfat (familiarity) and invardly teaches the entire Uloom (Science) through the Followers of Salf (forefarther) and also grants the entire Uloom (Science) of Half (successor) with Taufeeq (Success).  And the Seeker forgets it after learning it.  After this his body [totally]becomes Noor (Light) and becomes the Master of Mushahida forever in the Qurb (propinquity) of Hazoor (Attendance) of Followers of Allah (Ahl e Allah) and through this gains the Martaba (Rank) up to the day of Alast [the Day when Allah asked the entire spirits: ‘Am I not your Lord (7:172)] and says ‘Balaa (Yes!) (You are our Lord) with spriritual tongue while standing in the row of the Holy Prophets Alaihim Salam  and the great Aulia Allah.  He is called the ‘Real Muslim’.  The Seeker who does not access to the Martaba (Rank) of the Real Muslim in the very first day through the Talqeen (Instruction) of Murshid (Guide) and does not find the Mansib (post) of his Ruh (Spirit) in the row of Azal then what the purpose of his Murshid (Guide)?  But instead his Seeker is also nincompoop animal that follows such Murshid (Guide).  The Martaba (Rank) of being Murshid (Guide) and being Seeker is not easy.  In the actions of the Murshideen e Kamil (Perfect Guides) are hidden the great secrets of Almighty Allah and the visions of Hazoori.

 [O Loyal Seeker] be enlightened well that if you are a wise human being then you will see the drama of both the worlds with open eyes through the Mushahida (Vision) of the Qurb (propinquity) and Hazoor (Attendance) of Allah within twinkling of an eye. 

Suggested Meanings:

Azal: eternity without beginning. Didaar (the Sight of Allah). Wazaif: lengthy prayers or supplications. Chilla: Sufi’s worship in Retreat usually exercised for a particular period and for specific purpose. Rujuaat e Khalq: approaching of people as gesture of acknowledgement of their acceptance of the eminence of a person. Hazoori: It means ‘attendance at an intangible Station or an unseen gathering that is a Wayfarer after disconnecting with the creation and after fleeing away of the outward world gains cordially spiritually and inwardly the Qurb of Lord Wisaal and Didaar and is present before Allah in said way or he is allowed attendance in the inward and spiritual Court of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wassallam inwardly or spiritually while sleeping or through Maraqiba.

And if the Seeker is Na-Mard (lacking quality of Real Masculine) then the only reason of this is the cordiality with world which is like a Hijaab (Veil) for him.  Since the Murshid (Guide) tests the Seeker by demanding wealth [and life] and the Seeker turns his face away of him.  Such Seekers and like Satan who are in the slavery of accursed Nafs.  They lack Yaqeen (Certainty).  They are the spies to the faults of the Murshid and are a cause of Waswasa (Devilment) for him.  They never reach at the desired destination [but instead remain deprived of the Marifat of Allah Almighty].  What thing the Murshid demands from the Seeker?  The Murshid (Guide) demands property (pecuniary) of the dear life of the Seeker [in lieu of the wealth of the Marifat].  The Seeker who does not immolate his head in the course of Lord he is Na-Mard (lacking quality of Real Masculine) and he remains deprived of the Marifat of Lord.  The Mard (real masculine) Seeker is he who immolates his soul in the path of Allah Almighty and gasps not.  Such Seeker is Roshan Zamir (with enlightened Conscience) is sensible and is eligible for Hazoori.

It should be noted that what is the Martaba (Rank) of being Seeker and being Murshid?  [In fact] both the Murshideen (Guides) and the Seekers are like the claimant and the defendant.  Their these dealings are not covered without the Ability of Allah Almighty and the Marifat of Qurb (propinquity) of His Hazoori and the Tahqeeqaat (researches) of the Haq (Truth) and Baatil (Falsehood) of the Nafs and Ruh (Spirit) is not possible without the Shariyat of the Majlis (Court) of Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam where two witnesses of Allah Almighty are required: the first witness is the Ilm (knowledge) of Iqrar (Declaration) and second witness is the Ilm (knowledge) of Tasdeeq (Acknowledgement).  The testifier of each of the both Ilm (knowledge) is by the Ability of Lord.

Thus it is known that in the Gaze of the Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) both the seeker of Ilm (knowledge) and the Jaahil (Ignorant) are equal because these both of the Ilm (knowledge) of the outward and Ilm (knowledge) of the inward and the Ilm (knowledge) of the Hayyu (The Alive) Qayyum (The Self Subsisting) and the Ilm of customs and practice are in the authority of the Murshid Aalim Bi Allah.  [Similarly] in the gaze of the Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide) the fortunate and unfortunate Seekers are equal because [the Murshid e Kamil (Perfect Guide)] grants every fortune to the unfortunate Seeker from the Majlis (Court) of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wassallam. 

Suggested Meanings:

Hazoori: It means ‘attendance at an intangible Station or an unseen gathering that is a Wayfarer after disconnecting with the creation and after fleeing away of the outward world gains cordially spiritually and inwardly the Qurb of Lord Wisaal and Didaar and is present before Allah in said way or he is allowed attendance in the inward and spiritual Court of Hazarat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihi Wassallam inwardly or spiritually while sleeping or through Maraqiba.
