Rawh Allah 2 (Mercy of God)

In verse (12:87) God says: “And do not despair of Allah’s mercy.” Allah’s mercy, in reality, is the name of a great soul, who is the Imam of the time. Thus, rawhu’llah and ruhu’llah are the same thing.

Thousand Wisdoms 395 (214)

The highest ranks of the world of humanity and the world of religion are held by the Prophets and the awliya’, therefore the recognition of their secrets is extremely difficult. However, it is not impossible. For, in Islam, there is no despondency from Divine mercy (12:87), because in it the soul-nourishing miracle of the means of guidance works amazingly. Thus in the light of the wisdom of the Qur’an and Hadith, it is possible to discover the great secret of the nature of the sleep of awliya’. How does it affect the senses? Is it included in the world of wakefulness or in the world of dream? Or is it a line of demarcation between the two? God willing, many such questions will be automatically solved by this article, so that the readers of this book may estimate the real standard of spiritual health and peace.
