Muhkumul Faqara

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE BENEFICENT, THE MERCIFUL

CHAPTER - ONE

PRAISE OF ALLAH ALMIGHTY AND HOLY PROPHET OF ALLAH HAZRAT MUHAMMAD SAL ALLAHU ALAIHE WA AA-LEHEE WA-SALLAM

Allah Almighty is the Holiness with His Names and the Above All and the Highest by virtue of His Majesty and Darood and Salaam be upon the Chief of the Saadaat Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam, his entire progeny, his Holy Companions Radhi-ya-Allahu Ta-aala Anhumand his Household Radhi-ya-Allahu Ta-aala Anhum.

[O True-Seeker!] Lo! Title given to this book is "Muhkumul Fuqara (Invincibile Coherence and Firmness of Faqeers)". After this the writer of this book, "Zaeef ul Khaeef Talmeez-Ur-Rahmaan Sarwari-Qadiri Servant Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe Fanaa-Fi-Hu (Destroyed in Hu), son of Bazaid Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe, Surname A'waan, resident of the suburbs of Qala Shor Kot, [May God keep it save against all calamities and oppression!], humbly says that this Selk-Salook of the Faqar the Ascension of Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam rejects the People of Bidat and Istadraaj.

The Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam said that: "People of Bidat are dogs of Hell"

?

Allah Almighty says: and those who denied Our revelations step by step We lead them on from whence they know not (7:182)

Lo! Faqeer is of two kinds:

1.      The Saalik

2.      The Aashiq

The Saalik is the Master-of-Riyazat and Mujahida and the Aashiq is the Master of Secret and Mushahida. The extremity of the Saalik is the start of the Aashiq as food of the Aashiq is Mujahida and his slumber is the Mushahida.

Your Ishq entered my body, now what should I do for the soul?

Because two kings are not desired for same kingdom!
