Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Stars are like brilliant jewels in the dark blanket of night.
Holy Ones whose hearts are illuminated with constant zikrullah, are like these guiding stars in the midst of the complete darkness on earth.
Darkness comes from the undead walking with perished hearts, neglectful of their Most Benevolent Sustainer (ﷻ).
Hearts come to life with the remembrance of Allah (ﷻ).
These enlightenend friends of Allah (ﷻ) are trained to cleanse darkened hearts and bring people to safety by dispensing a precious flow of advice from their fountain of Divine Knowledge.
“When I [Allah] Love him [a servant of Allah], I become his hearing with which he hears, and his sight with which he sees, and his hand with which he strikes, and his foot with which he walks.
Were he to ask [something] of Me, I would surely give it to him; and were he to seek refuge with Me, I would surely grant him refuge.’ ” - Hadees, Bukhari
Wise ones seek such sincere servants of Allah (ﷻ) and sit with them, taking their guidance actively, becoming students who accept advice when it is given.
The ego will not accept advice from anyone, yet, Allah (ﷻ) Loves the one who empties himself/herself from prior knowledge and humbly asks Him for guidance in every matter.
Allah (ﷻ) speaks to his servants behind a veil, hence, keep your ears and heart open to advice coming from anyone, be it even from a child.
When our Holy Prophet (ﷺ) was commanded, “Read!”, by Sayyidina Jibril (as), we find the most beautiful of response, “I don’t know.”
Although Rasulullah (ﷺ) is in reality The Source of all knowledge, he examplifies the perfection of humility in the presence of a guide, for anyone pursuing knowledge.
Empty yourself of your limited knowledge and dive into Oceans of Limitless Divine Knowledge.
Seek guidance sincerely, with an open heart, and have at your expense Limitless Divine Knowledge, if one so accepts that only Allah (ﷻ), His Beloved (ﷺ) and the true guides given authority, know better.
The route to safety is in the simplicity of complete obedience and acceptance to advice given.
Just follow. Have yakin you are being guided.
May Allah (ﷻ) grant us guidance to the path pleasing to Him, Guide us to His beloved sincere servants, with lighted hearts who love us, and keep us away from the misguidance and company of those with dead hearts.
