And the world...

And the world, all of it was in front of his eyes, and the creatures between his knees, and his hands reached the east and the west. So I -saww said: ‘O Jibraeel -as , who is this, for who would have not seen an Angel of my -saww Lord -azwj of a greater creation than him’. قال: هذا عزرائيل ملك الموت ادن فسلم عليه، فدنوت منه، فقلت: سلام عليك، حبيبي ملك الموت. فقال: و عليك السلام يا أحمد.

و ما فعل ابن عمك علي بن أبي طالب؟ فقلت: و هل تعرف ابن عمي؟ قال: و كيف لا أعرفه؟ فإن الله جل جلاله وكلني بقبض الأرواح ما خلا روحك و روح علي بن أبي طالب، فإن الله يتوفاكما بمشيئته». He -as said: ‘This is Azraeel, the Angel of Death’. I -saww approached, he greeted, so I -saww said: ‘Peace be upon you, my -saww beloved Angel of Death’. So he said: ‘And peace be upon you -saww O Ahmad -saww .

And how is your -saww cousin -asws Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws ?’ So I -saww said: ‘And you -saww know my -saww cousin -asws ?’ He replied: ‘And how can I not know him -asws ? Allah -azwj Majestic is His -azwj Majesty has Allocated me to capture the souls except for your -saww soul and the soul of Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws , for Allah -azwj will make both of you -asws to pass away by His -azwj Desire ’.

Reply: Another ‘Qayyas’ based statement, The Saadat only have the ‘Nisbah’ (reference) to Divine ‘Noor’, they came to the world with the ‘Izan’ of Masomeen-asws and not through the paternal/maternal relationships.

As Mola Ali-asws Says: يا سلمان إن ميّتنا إذا مات لم يمت، و مقتولنا لم يقتل، و غائبنا إذا غاب لم يغب، و لا نلد و لا نولد في‏ البطون‏ ، و لا يقاس بنا أحد من الناس (Amir ul Momineen -asws says in one of his -asws Sermons) O Salmán! The slain among us -asws is not dead and can never be eliminated. The one -asws who is in occultation- is amongst us -asws and performs his -asws duties as we -asws did.

We -asws do not come to the world through maternal/paternal relationship and no one is comparable to us -asws . I -asws am the one who spoke through the voice of Jesus -as when he -as in the cradle. I -asws am the Noah -as . I -asws am the Abraham -as . I -asws am the Sálih -as who possessed the She-Camel, as one of Allah’s -azwj Signs.
