38:72


Now let us discuss in the light of Pir Nasir,s teachings: How did God breath His Spirit into Hazrat Adam? This question is based on the following Qura'ᾱnic verse: "(Before the creation of Ᾱdam, God said to the angels): And when I will perfect him and breathe into him My Spirit, then fall down before him prostrating" (38:72; 15:29)

Pir Nasir Khusraw and Spirituality (7)

Q517 Our very dear and esteemed President Ghulam Mustafa Momin from Atlanta asked the following question on the telephone: “Sahib! Please tell us the basis for the division of the twelve jazirahs in this world for the sake of dacwat-i haqq? Does the system of hudud-i din still continue? Are there still one hujjat and 30 dacis in every jazirah?”
A517

  • Regarding the vicegerency of Hazrat Adam(c), Allah says: “I am going to appoint a vicegerent in the earth” (2:30). In this verse by the earth is meant people because Allah did not say “on the earth”, rather He said “in the earth”.
  • This means that not only do the Divine vicegerency (by the name of [recognition and]) Divine guidance continue externally among the people, but Adam(c)’s real recognition and [guidance] continue within the carifs.
  • Thus, by the command of Allah Adam(c) underwent the resurrection and the Divine Spirit started to work in him (15:29; 38:72). By this blessing the universe was subjugated to him and seventy thousand subtle human beings were created from his blessed personality.
  • Furthermore, seventy thousand angels were also created at the place of intellect. According to Allah there are twelve nations in the world which are the twelve jazirahs. For every jazirah one hujjat and 30 dacis are appointed from among the subtle human beings.
  • The inner (batini) system of hudud-i din did not only exist in the time of Adam(c). The same system continues even today spiritually.
