GRANDEUR OF SULTAN UL FAQR THE SEVEN CELESTIAL SOULS
UNVEILING OF THE GRANDEUR OF SULTAN UL FAQR SOULS:
Historically, the existence of the grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls (shan Sultan ul Faqr) stood unrevealed until Risala Roohi Sharif. Its author, Saint Sultan Bahoo proclaims it as Divine inspiration. Indeed, the sacred book unveils facets of the spiritual world. This treatise reveals the grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls. Additionally, it is also considered a wazifa i.e. it is recited seeking a special favor from Allah. The present Imam of Sarwari Qadri order grants permission to all his disciples to read this as it requires permission of the perfect spiritual guide.
MANIFESTATION OF GRANDEUR OF SULTAN UL FAQR SOULS:
This is the original Persian text from Sultan Bahoo’s Risala Roohi Sharif where he reveals the grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls (shan Sultan ul Faqr):
PERSIAN SCRIPT
بدان کہ چوں نورِ احدی از حجلہء تنہائیِ وحدت بر مظاہرِ کثرت ارادہ فرمود‘ حسنِ خود را جلوہ بصفائیِ گرم بازاری نمود۔ بر شمعءِ جمال پروانہء کونین بسوزید و نقابِ میمِ احمدی پوشیدہ صورتِ احمدی گرفت و از کثرتِ جذبات و ارادات، ہفت بار بر خود بجنبید و ازاں ہفت ارواحِ فقراء باصفا‘ فنا فی اللہ‘ بقا باللہ محوِ خیالِ ذات‘ ہمہ مغز بے پوست‘ پیش از آفرینشِ آدم علیہ السلام ہفتاد ہزار سال غرقِ بحرِ جمال بر شجرِ مرآۃ الیقین پیدا شدند۔
بجز ذاتِ حق از ازَل تا ابد چیزے ندیدند و ماسویٰ اللہ گاہے نشنیدند‘ بحریمِ کبریا دائم بحر الوصالِ لازوال، گاہے جسدِ نوری پوشیدہ بہ تقدیس و تنزیہہ می کوشیدند و گاہے قطرہ در بحر و گاہے بحر در قطرہ‘ و ردائے فیضِ عطا ’’ اِذَا تَمَّ الْفَقْرُ فَھُوَاللّٰہُ ‘‘ بَر اِیشان۔ پس بحیاتِ ابدی و تاجِ عزِّ سرمدی ’’ اَلْفَقْرُ لاَ یُحْتَاجُ اِلٰی رَبِّہٖ وَلاَ اِلٰی غَیْرِہٖ ‘‘ معزز و مکرّم‘ از آفرینشِ آدم علیہ السلام و قیامِ قیامت ہیچ آگاہی ندارند وقدمِ ایشاں برسرِ جملہ اولیاء وغوث و قطب۔
اگر آنہار اخدا خوانی بجاوَاگر بندۂِ خدا دانی روا۔ عَلِمَ مَنْ عَلِمَ ‘ مقامِ ایشان حریمِ ذاتِِ کبریا و از حق ماسویٰ الحق چیزے نا طلبید ند و بد نیائے دنی و نعیمِ اُخروی، حورو قصورِ بہشت، بکرشمہءِ نظر ندیدند و ازاں یک لمعہ کہ موسیٰ علیہ السلام در سراسیمگی رفتہ و طور درہم شکستہ ‘ در ہر لمحہ و طرفتہ العین ہفتاد ہزار بار لمعاتِ جذباتِ انوارِ ذات بر ایشاں وارد و دم نہ زدند و آہے نہ کشیدند وَ ھَلْ مِنْ مَّزِیْد می گفتند۔ وایشاں سلطان الفقر و سیّد الکونین اند ۔ ( رسالہ روحی شریف )
TRANSLATION OF THE MANIFESTATION OF SULTAN UL FAQR SOULS:
“Know! When light of AHAD (The One) coming out of His isolated Oneness, intended to manifest Himself, He graced all the worlds with the splendid sight of His pure Divine Beauty. Both the realms started burning like a moth on the candle of His blazing beauty. Hence, the light of AHAD concealed in the veil of ‘M’ of AHMAD (sall’ Allahu alayhi wa’allihi wasallam). Then, the Essence shook Himself seven times due to the abundance of Divine passionate will. Subsequently, seven purest souls of Fakirs, annihilated and immortal with Allah appeared on the eternal tree of pure transparent belief. It happened seventy thousand years before the birth of Adam.
These souls were absorbed in the Divine vision, all essence without body, submerged in the unfathomed ocean of Divine beauty. From pre-existence till eternal end, they neither saw nor heard anything except the Divine Essence. Thereafter, they ever remained in the Divine sanctuary as an everlasting ocean of absolute unity with Allah. At times, they endeavored in glorification and purgation with their celestial body. While, sometimes they are a drop in the ocean and sometimes an ocean in a drop.” (RISALA ROOHI SHARIF TRANSLATION)
THE GRANDEUR SULTAN UL FAQR SOULS (SHAN SULTAN UL FAQR):
“The beneficence of اِذَا تَمَّ الْفَقْرُ فَھُوَاللّٰہُ meaning: ‘When Faqr is accomplished that is Allah’ has covered them. Thus, they have got an eternal life. Furthermore, the crown of اَلْفَقْرُ لَا یُحْتَاجُ اِلٰی رَبِّہٖ وَلَا اِلٰی غَیْرِہٖ has honoured them. It means, ‘Faqr demands nothing from Allah or from anyone other than Allah’. They are neither aware of the birth of Adam nor about the occurrence of doomsday. They have their steps on the heads of all Saints, al Ghawth and al Qutb. In short, it is right to call them Allah and also justified if you call them men of Allah. One who knows their reality, finds this secret.
The sanctuary of Magnificence is their station. They never asked for anything from Allah except Allah Himself. Moreover, they never paid heed towards the petty world, houris and castles of heaven or luxuries of the hearafter. The single theophany of Divine Essence left Prophet Moses perplexed and Mount Sinai burnt into ashes. However, same theophanies of Divine passion descend upon them seventy thousand times every moment in blink of an eye. Yet, neither they object nor lament. Rather, they demand for more, saying ھَلْ مِنْ مَّزِیْد meaning: ‘Is there any more!’ They are the Sultan ul Faqr and lords of all the worlds.” (RISALA ROOHI SHARIF TRANSLATION)
NAMES OF SULTAN UL FAQR SOULS:
Sultan Bahoo also reveals the names of the celestial souls. The grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls (shan Sultan ul Faqr) is higher than any other spiritual rank or level.
PERSIAN SCRIPT
یکے روحِ خاتونِ قیامت (رَضْی اَللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہَا)۔ یکے روحِ خواجہ حسن بصری (رَضْی اَللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہٗ)۔ یکے روح شیخِ ما ‘حقیقت الحق‘ نورِمُطلَق ‘مشہود علی الحق‘ حضرت سیّد محی الدین عبد القادر جیلانی محبوبِ سبحانی ( رَضْی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہٗ ) ویکے روحِ سلطانِ انوار ‘ سِرّالسّرمد حضرت پیر عبدالرزاق فرزندِ حضرت پیر دستگیر (قدس سرّہُ العزیز) ویکے روحِ چشمہءِ چشمانِ ھاَھُویّت ‘ سِرِ اَسرارِ ذاتِ یاھُو ‘فنا فی ھُو فقیر باھُو ( قُدَّسْ اللّٰہ سِرُّہٗ ) و دو روحِ دیگر اولیاء۔ بحرمتِ یمنِ ایشاں قیامِ دارین۔ تا آنکہ آں دو روح از آشیا نہءِ وحدت بر مظاہرِ کثرت نخواہند پرید‘ قیامِ قیامت نخواہد شد۔ سراسر نظرِ ایشاں نورِ وحدت و کیمیائے عزّت بہرکس پرتوءِ عنقائے ایشاں اُفتاد‘ نورِ مطلق ساختند‘ احتیاجے بریاضت و ورد اورادِ ظاہری طالبان را نہ پرداختند۔ (رسالہ روحی شریف)
MEANING:
“One of them is the soul of queen of doomsday Fatimah bint Mohammad (may Allah be pleased with her). 2nd is the soul of Hasan of Basra (may Allah be pleased with him). 3rd is the soul of our spiritual guide Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (may Allah be pleased with him). He is the Divine reality, absolute light and the perfect manifestation of Truth. 4th is the soul of sultan of Divine light, secret of eternal Essence, Pir Abdul Razzaq (may Allah bless him). He is the son of Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani. 5th is the soul of Fakir Bahoo who is annihilated in Hoo (the Divine Essence). He is the fountain head of sight of the Unknowable and secret of the secrets of the Divine Essence.
Furthermore, two among them are the souls of other Saints. The stability of both the worlds owes to their favour. Unless these two souls manifest in the world of diversity coming out of abode of Oneness, doomsday will not occur. Their sight is absolute light of Oneness and the alchemy of honour. On whosoever the reflection of their hidden reality casts, his being transforms into absolute light. They do not need to engage their disciples in the struggle of superficial daily recitals and mystic exercises”. (RISALA ROOHI SHARIF TRANSLATION)
SULTAN UL FAQR VI (THE SIXTH SULTAN UL FAQR):
Sultan Bahoo unraveled the manifestation and grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls. Moreover, he told the names of 5 of them and explained that the day of judgment would not occur until the other 2 souls grace this world with their presence. However, one of the souls came to this world in the form of Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (1947-2003), the physical and spiritual descendant of Sultan Bahoo. His grandeur Sultan ul Faqr (shan Sultan ul Faqr) revealed upon his disciples in the form of inspiration and dream and its official announcement was in August 1997.
THE GRANDEUR OF SULTAN UL FAQR SOULS (SHAN SULTAN UL FAQR):
The grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls (shan Sultan ul Faqr) is in the fact that their origin of manifestation is the Mohammadan light. Hence, their rank of perfection is highest after Prophet Mohammad. Moreover, these celestial souls united with Prophet Mohammad and annihilated in his being. Furthermore, they accompanied him on the night of Ascension (miraj). In addition, the grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls (shan Sultan ul Faqr) is that they have Divine vision as Sultan Bahoo says:
- Origin of Sultan ul Faqr souls is non-creation light of faith while their ultimacy is non-creation Divine light of Rahman (Most Compassionate). (Qurb-e-Deedar)
- The grandeur of Sultan ul Faqr souls (shan Sultan ul Faqr) is that their company is actually the ocean of Divine Oneness. Whoever reaches the bank of this ocean becomes a man of Divine closeness. (Mohkim-ul-Fuqara)
