Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Kashaful Wilayah Wilayat E Fitri (natural Wilayat) Every human possesses this wilayat. The minimum wilayat which man possesses is that he has authority over his body and its parts. However when a part of the body becomes disabled, this wilayat is removed. For example, if hands or feet become disabled or one loses his eyesight or ears become deaf, then the person loses his authority over his body parts.

Wilayat e Sharie The sharia gives this wilayat to mankind. For example, a father is wali of his daughter or after the demise of father, son becomes his wali, if one adopts an orphan, he becomes the wali of that orphan. Even though this wilayat is common, but only those who embrace islam can obtain this wilayat and come within the circle of shariat e Muhammad (saw). This wilayat is also not permanent. In certain circumstances it is removed.

For example, when a daughter gets married, the wilayat of the father is removed from her, or if a son is disinherited, and when the orphan becomes an adult, then the wilayat of his patron is removed. Wilayat e Zilli The third stage of wilayat is one which is obtained through love. When the love of the Wali of Allah is firmly attached inside one's heart, then the noor of wilayat is revealed upon that heart. The secrets of wilayat reveal themselves to his heart.

This wilayat is a blessing from Wali of Allah not the personal effort of the one who has it. Hz Salman Farsi (as), Hz Abu Dhar (ra), Hz Messam Tammar (ra), and Hz Bahlool (ra) are included in those Awaliya Allah. This wilayat can also be removed. For example, if greediness or self admiration comes into one's heart or if he uses this wilayat in order to gain worldly desires. In such circumstances, the wilayat will be removed from him. The example of Balam Baoor is in front of us.

Allah blessed him with His Ism e Azm, but he became treacherous towards the Proofs of Allah, Hz Musa (as) and Hz Haroon (as) and Allah removed this blessing of Ism e Azm from him. Wilayat e Illahiya Sughra The fourth stage of wilayat is associated with prophets and their successors. This is a limited wilayat based upon the level of status which the prophet has and cannot go beyond that level.
