Hadith 5086

(1) His statement: And from Ibn Abbas, etc.: Al-Qutb al-Rabbani and Al-Ghawth as-Samadani, Sayyid Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani—may his secret be sanctified—said in Futuhat al-Ghayb: It is incumbent upon every believer to make this Hadith a mirror for his heart, his slogan, his attire, and his speech, acting upon it in all his movements and stillness until he is safe in this world and the Hereafter, and finds honor in it by Allah's mercy, the Exalted. (As stated in Al-Mirqat) (2) His statement: Remember Allah: Meaning His command and prohibition. His statement: "He will remember you," meaning He will protect you in this world from afflictions and disliked things, and in the Hereafter from types of punishment and degradation as a just recompense. For he whom Allah remembers, Allah is with him. His statement: Remember Allah, meaning His right through constant remembrance, complete thought, and performing His gratitude. His statement: You will find Him before you with damma on the ta, meaning in front of you, and the meaning is that you will find Him as if He is present facing you and before you, witnessing Him in the station of your beneficence, certainty, and perfection of faith, as if you see Him such that you are completely annihilated from considering anything other than Him. The first is the state of observation, and the second is the station of witnessing. His statement: "When you ask, ask Allah," for the treasures of gifts are with Him, and the keys of favors and merits are in His hand, and do not ask others; for others are not capable of giving or withholding, averting harm or bringing benefit, as they do not possess for themselves benefit or harm, nor death or life. And in some divine books: "By My might and majesty, I will cut off whoever hopes in other than Me, clothe him with the garment of humiliation among people, distance him from My nearness, keep him away from My connection, and make him a perplexed thinker hoping in others during hardships, while hardships are in My hand, and I am the Ever-Living, the Sustainer. He knocks with thought on the doors of others, while the keys of the doors are in My hand, and they are closed, but My door is open to whoever calls Me." This was gathered from Al-Mirqat.

(۱) قوله : وعن ابن عباس إلخ : قال القطب الرباني والغوث الصمداني السيد عبد القادر الجيلاني - قدس سره - في فتوحات الغيب ينبغي لكل مؤمن أن يجعل هذا الحديث مرآة قلبه وشعاره و دثاره وحديثه، فيعمل به في جميع حركاته وسكناته حتى يسلم في الدنيا والآخرة، ويجد العزة فيها برحمة الله تعالى. كذا في «المرقاة».

(۲) قوله: احفظ الله : أي أمره ونهيه. وقوله: يحفظك» أي يحفظك في الدنيا من الآفات والمكروهات، وفي العقبى من أنواع العقاب والدركات جزاء وفاقا، فإن من كان الله كان الله له قوله : احفظ الله أي حقه من دوام ذكره و تمام فكره وقيام شكره قوله تجده تجاهك بضم التاء أي أمامك، والمعنى أنك تجده حينئذ كأنه حاضر تلقاءك وقدامك وتشهده في مقام إحسانك وإيقانك وكمال إيمانك، كأنك تراه بحيث تفني بالكلية عن نظرك ما سواه، فالأول حال المراقبة، والثاني: مقام المشاهدة، قوله: «فاسئل الله فإن خزائن العطايا عنده، ومفاتيح المواهب والمزايا بيده، ولا يسأل غيره؛ لأن غيره غير قادر على العطاء والمنع ودفع الضر وجلب النفع؛ فإنهم لا يملكون لأنفسهم نفعا ولا ضرا، ولا يملكون موتا ولا حياة، وفي بعض الكتب الإلهية: وعزتي وجلالي لأقطعن من يؤمل غيري، وألبسنه ثوب المذلة عند الناس، ولأجنبنه من قربي، ولأبعده من وصلي، ولأجعلنه متفكرا حيرانا يؤمل غيري في الشدائد، والشدائد بيدي وأنا الحي القيوم، ويطرق بالفكر أبواب غيري، وبيدي مفاتيح الأبواب، وهي مغلقة وبابي مفتوح لمن دعاني. هذا التقطته من المرقاة».
