2:26
By the command of God when the time of the personal Resurrection of a searching mumin comes, the wonders and marvels of Sur-i Israfil start with a voice which is called "ringing of the ears". In Qur'anic wisdom its example is given by the gnat (baudah = its noise, 2:26), about which Mawla Ali has said: "I am the gnat whose example God has given in the Qur'an". This means that the ringing of the ears is the beginning of the voice of Sur-i Israfil as well as a spark of the light of Imamat. This voice gradually becomes louder and louder and eventually surrounds the entire universe so that all people are gathered and present for the judgement of the Resurrection as mentioned in the Qur'an.
Q6. What was the ant by whose conversation Hazrat Sulayman was amazed? Where is the valley of the ants?
A6. The ant, which was speaking in the ear of Hazrat Sulayman was a chief soul of the world of particles. In the language of spiritual science, the ear is called the valley of the ants and the ant, the chief soul, is also called a gnat(bauzah, 2:26).
Q360 Please present the proofs of the statement made in Q359 (27:82).
A360
- Hazrat cAli(c), said: “I am the dabbatu’l-arz”. Therefore, this is the light of cAli(c), which as the daci of resurrection invites people to the place of resurrection. Together with this there is also the voice of the sur of Israfil.
- The voice of the da(c)i is like that of a gnat (bacuzah, 2:26), therefore Mawla cAli(c) has said: “I am the gnat by which God has struck an example”. The daci of resurrection who is the light of Mawla cAli(c) speaks in every language of the world. Study the phrase “He has no crookedness” (20:108). Mawla cAli(c) says: “I speak every language of the world”. He has also said: “I am the signs of God”.
