Dream:
Assalamu Alaykum
I was in a mehfil gathering and Maulana Sheikh Nazim (q.s) enters, I immediately am the only one to kiss there feet, hands and beard. They then sit and there face is now different (big black turban, black thick mustache and beard and old), they start to sing ‘Alif Allah chambe di booti, Murshid man wich laaee hoo (My Master Has Planted in My Heart the Jasmine of Allah’s Name – Huu). Who was this, was this Hazrat Sultan Bahu R.A who wrote the words above?
Maulana then disappear to ther side of room and start singing something else now looking like themselves again, i remember telling my friend to record.
Interpretation:
`Alaykum salam,
Yes it is the author of this verse which celebrates the oceans of Divine unity which Mawlana Shaykh Nazim addressed so much. Hu is the unfathomable unknowable Divine Essence which some scholars said was the greatest Name. Mawlana Shaykh Hisham said Qur’an moves from Hu to Allah but in the Khatm Khwajagan we move from Allah to Hu. In this verse of Sultan Bahu (may Allah sanctify their souls) we move from Allah to Heart to Murshid (all the way to Hadrat Risala) to Hu. So the created is enfolded and the Creator begins and ends everything.
Mawlana Shaykh Nazim said the Divine Names are signposts of the Divine Attributes, the Attributes are signposts of the Divine Acts, and all creation is subdued under the Acts. May Allah be glorified first and last.
