Secrets with Allah

Embark on a secret journey to Allah, then fate crafts your path, placing you at the crossroads where you transition from one world to another, a world where you neither see nor hear with your own senses. There, your faculties and limbs declare submission and surrender to another force that governs you.

Finally, the body falls away, no longer bound by dreams or aspirations, and the soul emerges victorious!

And so you journey, sometimes swaying between strength and weakness, in a place between softness and hardness, between severity and leniency.

You must praise Allah abundantly for the blessings of pain, for the blessing of estrangement, and other similar blessings. Why?

Because without those gifts, cloaked in the garb of trials, you wouldn't be who you are today.

Pain has succeeded in detaching you, detaching you from the world of dreams. Nothing catches your attention anymore; there's nothing to steal your gaze. Why? Because the senses have become prisoners after a bloody battle on a white night where fate declared the victory of the soul.

Yet, you may still grieve; your pain may intensify; you may be afflicted by the trials of time!

Yes, because there are insidious attempts from within yourself trying to drag the soul into defeat, to regain control over you and lead you back to its aspirations. But pain stands here, like the noble knight defending the fortress of the soul.

So pain continues to circulate within the luminous structure of your soul, guarding and preserving it.

And do they fear?

Yes, they fear greatly.

From whom?

From Allah. For when they leave this world, they pledge to Allah for excellence and good deeds, and when they feel doubts creeping into their path, fear seeps into their hearts, making them seem intoxicated, though they are not, but their resurrection has commenced!

These are people whose graves lie within their ribs, and the questioning of their angels is ongoing, accompanying their journey towards Allah.

And where is the share of the heart from this world?

Know, my friend, that some have taken their full share, and their world is complete, and their light is reduced.

Some have taken a portion, and their world and their light are balanced.

And some have heard of this world but taken nothing from it. Their world has disappeared, but their light has intensified.

The light is not complete without pain, and pain is the noble knight defending only the few, those who journey to Allah with the manners of manifestation.

Embark on a secret journey to Allah.

And what is the secret?

The secret lies in "La ilaha illallah" (There is no god but Allah).

Know that "La ilaha illallah" suffices.

But is "La ilaha illallah" enough?

If Allah teaches you its meanings, and grants you its realities, it is the essence of faith, the culmination of monotheism, and the cornerstone of attainment. It suffices you from the books of knowledge entirely, it suffices you from asking the creation about anything.

It enriches you, it suffices you, it preserves you.

So know that "La ilaha illallah."
