Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Spiritualism and Magnetism Qur'an, Science and Phenomenology of Spiritual System The Holy Qur’an on Divine Status of Auliya Allah The style and expression of the Holy Qur’an is charged with wisdom, guidance and exhortation. In the same exhorting style it addresses, on occasions, our dearest and the most adorable Holy Prophet (SAW), and these exhortations contain implied instructions for the whole Ummah.

In the following verse of the Holy Qur’an Allah goads his most kind and beloved Messenger: (O’my servant), stand fast in the companionship of those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His pleasure and satisfaction (by accomplishing His plans) and let not your eyes (your affectionate and kind care) pass beyond them. Do you pursue adornments of worldly life (turning away from the indigent)?

Nor follow any whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance (neglectful of Allah’s commands), the one who follows his own lusts and who has gone beyond all bounds (whose ways are unbridled). [^19] Allah Almighty has enjoined the whole Muslim Ummah, through His divine “bond” with the beloved Messenger (SAW), to continue tenaciously and with utter involvement the companionship of those who enjoy the ecstasy of calling on Allah the Sustainer.

Morning and evening they spend every moment conscious of their spiritual contact with Allah and accomplish His plans in the world. Doing all chores of life, they need nothing except pleasure and satisfaction Allah Seeking His proximity, they long only for ‘union’ with Him and pass away in the same state. They are the Auliya Allah, His companions. ‘Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Allah They call on Allah and Allah calls on them’.

Their dignity lies in the fact that those Muslims, who seek spiritual contact with Allah, are required to join the pious and pure company of Allah’s companions. This is the spiritual world. They are spiritually so intimate to the Creator that we are exhorted to establish a contact with them. Maulana Room has also emphasized: The desirous of Allah’s company must sit with Allah’s friends. The glimpses from spiritual life of Auliya Allah have already depicted this spiritual contact with Allah.

The Islamic history is replete with anecdotes of Allah’s friends and their disciples.
