MAN AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF TEST
Chapter 22
The Signs of Salvation from Satan
1. Have you noticed? That whatever Man succeeds in knowing the secrets of enmity and the opposing policies of this apparently invisible and (Namar'ee Zahiree wa nadeedanee waaqe'ee) enemy of him (Satan), then it is right at that time when justice will be generalized all over the earth, the Insight into Almighty Allah will supersede in all Hearts, and security will be ruling in all aspects.
2. Have you noticed? By perceiving these facts, how can Man rescue himself from under the rule of egoistic desires and Satanic disguises and why most of them do not have the power and ability of rescuing themselves? These are proper and valuable questions, which Mankind must definitely know.
3. Have you noticed? These secrets have been appreciably explained by the Generous Qur'an within 156 verses and in addition by the Messenger, peace be upon him, in the Hadeeth of Sahah Setta. The question, however, as why up to now there has no attention been paid to it, is a question shaking the Rooh and psyche of enlightened believers Mu'mineen since we see now that due to these carelessness and negligence we are fallen into the pits of ignorance and some people into the pits of deviation and different backwardness. These situations are clearly witnessing our deviations from the principles of Islam. Where at the end of the business we are appealing on the East and some others have come to their knees to the West, and we are standing at their door needy for everything.
4. Have you noticed? In what circumstances will Satan go far and farther from the top of the Heart?
Yes! As, due to Remembrance (Dhiker), or Observation of the Exhibition (Fiker), or good deeds and words, physical, financial and verbal, in accordance with the religious Jurisprudence, the Enlightenment of Nucleus of Monotheism develop in person; meanwhile Satan keeps himself away from the Enlightenment (Luminosity) to a certain distance, so that it may not hurt him.
5. Have you noticed? This Luminosity is actually as the positive line, and the body of Satan and his darkness as negative line. Where, if they happen to collide, it will annihilate the negative line by the produced spark. In case if the Nafs goes between (intermediates), apparently it paves the way for the business of Satan and his disguises, and it prevents the chances of collision.
6. Have you noticed? If the spiritual Luminosity (Enlightenment), and the spirituality (Ma'nawiyat) of Monotheism in person keep increasing, his appointed Satan can stay with him until certain distance. Satan observes (sees) from distance the effect of his temptations on the person. If Satan realizes that his voice cannot be effective anymore on that fortunate (prosperous) person, then he petitions to his competent authorities and asks for his dismissal. Of course, in such cases, the dismissed Satan is subjected to anger according to (proportional to) his rank (level).
7. Have you noticed? The signs of such circumstances are such that, if a perceptive and alert person notices or will notice, at the beginning the whispering of Temptation are correctly received from the top of the Heart or in the Heart itself which may be very manifested and clear. As, Satan goes away from the person, it is noticed to be weak and from distance. This is right the moment when Satan has distanced, and keeps distancing from him. The person should put more efforts in performing the good deeds which he used to do and should accomplish them so that his Inner Luminosity grows towards excellence.
8. Have you noticed? After feeling these weak temptations, it happens at once, that Temptations are infused to the person right from the top of the Heart. This is right the moment that the first Satan is dismissed, and now equal to his Inner Luminosity, a Satan of equal equivalent level of darkness is appointed to the person. Therefore, it is necessary for the person to make effort not to abandon the continuance in activities and good deeds which were the cause of promotion of the Inner.
9. Have you noticed? The continuance of that act or acts, or the company (being addressed by) of some noble majesties, or the persistence with some Remembrance (Dhiker) or the Observation of the Exhibition (Fiker) etc. from which he has acquired the necessary Luminosity, become again a bit heavy in this occasion. They should show ambition and should persist more seriously. If, he has the chance of increasing the guidance's of the perfect Teacher (Ustaad-e-Kamil), this is much better, for they are well knowledgeable as the doctors of the Inner in prescribing syrups of capsules fortifier of Rooh.
10. Have you noticed? The other way of salvation is that he should keep in mind (keep rewinding in his mind) the passive early stages and his laziness all one by one, and he should see himself as the insignificant particle which he was originally. He should come to humbleness and moaning. Undoubtedly, this Satan will certainly also, with the help of Glorious Allah, be forced to distance.
