♥ Khatamul Auliya [ The Great Sufi / Shaikh ]

Imam at-Tirmidhi, al-Hakim, the great philosopher and Sufi once wrote most of his time on Khatamolanbia Auliya '(Pamungkas the trustees), as the concept of developing the final of the Prophet (Khatimul Anbiya'). Mother Araby in his book the most comprehensive of all time, Al-Futuhatul Makiyyah. Therein Ibn Araby answered 155 questions in his Auliya' Khatamolanbia At-Tirmidy. In the first question reads:

What Manazil (a spiritual footing) the Saints'?Ibn Araby said: Know that Manazil Saints' there are two kinds. The first is sensory (hissiyah) and both are Maknawy. The position of spiritual footing (manzilah) that are sensuous, is heaven, even though there are a hundred in heaven rank number. While their manzilah in the world that is in some sense, they are often ahwal create something extraordinary. Among them were revealed by God as mayor-guardian Abdal and the like. There also were not revealed as the mayor Malamatiyah as well as the 'Arifin great, the amount of their footing more than 100 places of spiritual footing. Every each place it evolved into so many places so much. Thus their spiritual footing that is sensual in two worlds (the world and the Hereafter).While that is Maknawy in dimensions kema'rifatan, then they manzilah 248 thousand places intrinsic spiritual footing that can not be achieved by community-ummah before our Prophet Muhammad, the spiritual sense of the different, and each has a spiritual sense special flavor that is known only to the taste.


The amount tersari in four maqamat: 
1) Maqam Ladunny Sciences, 
2) Maqam Nur Science,
3) Maqam al-Jam'u Sciences and at-Tafriqat, 
4) Science Maqam Al-kitabah al-Ilahiyyah.  

Among maqamat it is maqam-amaqam Saints' and is divided into 100 thousand over the station of Saints, and each still highly branched, which can be calculated, but not in place to parse here.Regarding Science Ladunny nunasa-shades associated with divine and some absorption in the form of a special grace. Meanwhile, Nur Science, looked strength in the most sublime spiritual horizon, thousands of years before the birth of Adam divine. While Science Jam 'and Tafriqah is divine Ocean which includes universal, where Lawh Mahfouz as abian of the Ocean. From there also spawned Early Intellect, and the rest of the highest horizon perceive him. And once again, the Saints aside from this ummah can not understand them. But among the Saints' there were able to achieve the overall variance, such as Abu Yazid al-Bisthamy, and Sahl bin Abdullah, and some are only partially achieve. The Saints 'among this ummah from the perspective of knowledge there are gusts of spirit in the hallway of his soul, and nothing is perfect except of the Saints' community as a breeding and the help of God to them, because of the great position of their Prophet Sayyidina Muhammad.

In the knowledge of the hidden secrets of the real science are in three basic foundation of spiritual knowledge:
 1) Knowledge related to Ilahiyyah, 
2) Knowledge related to noble souls, and 
3) Knowledge related entities-existent the universe.Related to the subject of noble souls be varied without any contradictory impossibility. While dealing with a variety of natural entities, and has the impossibility of contradictions his impossible thing''sIf knowledge is divided into three main base was, then the Saints' is also divided into three layers: Middle Layer (Ath-Thabaqatul Wustha), has 123 thousand spiritual footing, and 87 major manzilah, which became a source of uptake of each manzilah are not can be limited, due to the interaction with each other, and nothing is won benefits except with Special Flavor. While the remaining layers, (two layers) appears with oversized clothes and gloves grandeur. It's just that both are using the gloves that greatness has more than 123 thousand mazilah it. For oversized clothing is the appearance of the Most Dzahir asthma, while the sheath is the appearance of asthma is the Most Mind. Which is the origin tonggaknya Dzahir, and The Mind is a new character, where the novelty comes footing-spiritual footing (Manazil) this.Branch has always been a place of fruit. So what is found in a branch is something that is not found in tonggaknya, namely fruit. Although the two branches at the top of the emergence of a major milestone that AsdmaNya Supreme Dzahir, but the law is different.

 
 Ma'rifat us to God, comes after we know ourselves, because it was "Who know him, know his Lord". Although we really form a branch of of Wujug Rabb. Rabb is Tonggal original form, and the form of a servant is a mere branch. In Dignity can be preceded, so to Him no name Al-Awwal, and in a diakhirkan dignity, so no Name of the Most Final. On one side doomed because nisbat Origin special, and on the other side because nisbat disehukumi as another branch. This is what can be illogical by reasonable analysis. While perceived by overflow Ma'rifat Taste, then He is Dzahir terms that He is the Inner, and He is the Inner terms of reality it Dzahir, and Awwal of reality is the End, as well as in the Final.Swedangkan number of the Saints who are in manzilah-manzilah it, ada356 figure, which they were Adala in the heart of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Gabriel, Michael, and Israfil. And there are 300, 40, 7, 5, 3 and 1. Thus, an overall number of 356 characters. This is according to the Sufis because of the hadeeth which mention so.Meanwhile, according to our tariqat arising from mukasyafah, then the total number of Saints who we have mentioned above at the beginning of this chapter, until they numbered 589 people. Among them there is one person, who does not have to appear at any age, which is referred to as al-Khatamolanbia Muhammady, while others continue to exist in every age is not reduced and not increased. Al-Khatamolanbia Muhammady at this time (the time of Ibn Araby, ed), we have seen and known him (may Allah perfect happiness), I knew he was in Fes (Morocco) in 595 H.While agreed among Sufis, there are six layers of the Saints', ie the Guardians: Ummahat, Aqthab; A'immah; Autad; Abdal; Nuqaba '; and Nujaba '.On another question: Who is entitled to hold Khatamolanbia Saints' as the title that carried Khatamun Nubuwwah by the Prophet Muhammad.? Ibn Araby said:Al-Khatam that there are two: God closes sainthood (absolute), and God shut sainthood Muhammadiyah. Cover absolute sainthood is Isa Alaihissalaam. He is a Trustee with Nubuwwah Absolute, which later fell in the era of this community, where the decline in the last days, as heir and cover, where there is no mayor with Nubuwwah Absolute afterwards. He was interrupted by the Shari'ah and Nubuwwah Nubuwwah Treatise. As the Prophet Muhammad as the Seal of Prophethood, where there is no Sharia Prophethood after that, even though after it was dropped like Jesus, as one of Ulul 'Azmi of the Apostles and Prophets noble. So the decline in Jesus as Trustee with absolute Nubuwwah, tertapi rules follow the rules of the Prophet Muhammad, joined the Guardians of the ummah of Muhammad. He belonged to us and our leaders.In the beginning, there was the Prophet, Adam, AS.Dan finally there is also a prophet, that Jesus, as the Prophet Ikhtishah (specificity), so Jesus eternal in the Mahsyar participated in two expanse stretching Mahsyar. One Mahsyar with us, and one Mahsyar with the Apostles and Prophets.The Closing of sainthood Muhammadiyah, the current (Ibn Araby era) is in an out of the Arab nation that has true glory. I know in the year 595 H. I see the secret signs shown by Allah Ta'ala on the fact ubudiyahnya me, and I see it in the city of Fes, so I see it as an area Khatamolanbia him. He is Khatamun Nubuwwah Absolute, which is not known to many people. And God has been tested with various circles rebuff him, about the nature of God in sirrnya.As God closes Nubuwwah Sharia by the Prophet Muhammad, as well as God closes Muhammady sainthood, who managed to inherit al-Muhammadiyah, not inherited from the Prophet. Because the mayor was there that inherit Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, then they were still we get after emergence Khatamolanbia Auliya''Muhammady, and after that there was no longer on Kalbu Wali Muhammad. This is the meaning of al-Muhammadiyah Khatamolanbia area. While Khatamolanbia General area, where there is no longer mayor after that, there is the Alaissalam Isa. And we found a number of people as the Guardian on Kalbu Isa As, and a mayor who is in Kalbu the other Apostles.And Allah knows best bis-sowab.

Abdul Majid bin Salamah Ibn Arabi friend never met Mayor Abdal named Mu'az bin al-Asyrash. He then asked how to reach the position of mayor Abdal. He responded with a hungry, do not sleep at night, a lot of silence and seclusion from the crowds.

Shaikh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani

He once said My feet are above the head of the whole guardian. According to Abdul Rahman Jami in his book entitled Nafahat al-Uns, that some of the leading guardians various earnest century put their heads under the foot of Shaikh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani.Shaikh Ahmad al-Rifa'iWhen he went Hajj, a pilgrimage to the Station when the Prophet Muhammad, it seems the hand of the grave of the Prophet shook hands with him and he continues to kiss the hands of the noble Prophet. The incident was witnessed by a crowd who also made a pilgrimage to the Holy Prophet Maqam. One of his students said:"Yes Sayyidi! Tuan Guru is Quthub ". The answer; "Sanctify ye your offense than Quthubiyah". The word disciple: "Tuan Guru is Ghaus!". He replied: "Purify syakmu than Ghausiyah".Al-Imam Sya'roni say that such is the proposition that Shaikh Ahmad al-Rifa'i has surpassed "maqamat" and "Athwar" because Minar and Ghauts it is the Maqam who knowingly (common knowledge).Before his death he had to tell when it's time to die, and properties of matter ihwalnya him. He will undergo severe pain for menangung bilahinya beings. His saying, I have in the promise of God, so that my life does not pass all the flesh (meat must be destroyed in advance). When Sayyidi Ahmad Al-Rifa'i pain resulting in his death, he said, "The rest of my life I would use to bear his great bilahi beings.Then he rubbed-ngosokkan face and his hair gray with dust, weeping and istighfar. Which dideritai by Ahmad Al-Rifa'i Sayyidi is sick "Vomit stools". Every day countless dirt out of the stomach. The pain experienced during a month. Until there is a question, How can it up so much that out, from which yes  sheikh. Though already twenty days masters did not eat and drink.He answered, 'Because this is all flesh had gone, living brain, and on this day will also be out and tomorrow I will go to the Almighty. After that when the death, come out white object about two or three times and then stop and no longer coming out of his stomach. So noble and the sacrifices Aulia Allah so that reinforcements could ill bear the duly spread over other human beings.
