Revelations Of The Unseen

[Nazihah]

A book I recommend reading, "Revelations Of The Unseen (Futuh al-Ghaib)" by Abd al-Qadir Jilani. MashaAllah, a very useful book. It'll help you spiritually, InshaAllah.


Description:
Shaykh Abd al-Qadir Jilani lived almost a thousand years ago, but his words transcend the time and place in which they were recorded to span the centuries without difficulty. Revered to this day as the supreme spiritual helper (al-Ghawth al-Azam), the Shaykh (may Allah be pleased with him) addresses his audience at a level that bypasses the obstacles of the heart and mind.

The talks contained in this book, short and to the point, are among the most beautiful oratory the world has ever known. The translations of this and the other of the Shaykh's works surviving in manuscript form in Oriental collections around the world are intended to make them more widely available and accessible to Muslims and non-Muslims alike.

Translated by Muhtar Holland, one of the foremost translators of classical Arabic, Revelations of the Unseen and other forthcoming volumes of the Shaykh's works should be a welcome addition to the library resources of the scholar and layman alike, and a great interest to students, teachers, and seekers of spiritual knowledge and understanding everywhere.

Referring to our brother`s post about the book of AbdulQadir Jilani, As our brother mentioned Shikh Abdulkadir Jilani was great shikh lived thousand years ago he was great shcolar who stiks to the towhid the onness of Allah with no partners but as the many great present and past scholars agree he did not write these books like(Munaqib, Fatul-Qaib,Alqawtal-alazam and others) Because these books are nothing but shirk. They are talking about qaib whcich only Allah knows , If you see some of the writings you doubth that of some unbeliever writes to confuse the muslims about thier faith. and shikh Jilani is Bari(inocent) about what they attributed to him.
I advise our brothers and sisters to see deeply about the books they are reading and sticks to towhid Onness of Allaah and know that 'No one in the heavens and earth knows the unseen except Allah; and they know not when they will be resurrected." (27:59-66), No scholar or good man or weli knows about the qaib(uneen world)

Iam so sorry Dear sister really I dont mean to hurt your feelings, though, I think you were brother and I talk bit tough langauge, sorry if you feel offended.(just bother`s advise)and thank you bother4ever for your encouragement..
Sister I visited
http://www.ikitab.com/index.php3?menu=describe&table=Book&cat=Books&id=b00077p&associate= . that website really its amazing how they are trying to give us an attractive picture .
Sister if you read and see what is inside these books, you would not trust your eyes.
One of books Tadkiratul ahlul yaqin says: (One day the old woman who serves with Shikh Jilani lost her son, then she appeals to the shikh he said to her go he will come back to you, she return to the next time and he said go he will come back, she return to the shikh third time; this time the shikh become angry fly up until he reaches the Angel who take the soul of that son, after some argument the shikh kicked the basket which th angel collects the souls of that day, the basket fell and all the souls went backs to thier people.) the meaning was like that.
Other book (Munaqib)says: Shikh(Jilani) said Iam the one who makes Nuh with the Arc!!!Iam the one who put down the fire from Ibrahim; which contradicts what Allah (SWt) said
Sister Shirk is to give some one to Allah`s power and qualities.
Sister all massengers of Allah from first Adam to Last Mohamed(pbuh) thier call (daawa) was same in terms of the basis of the religion, and that is Tawheed of Allah (i.e. to declare and believe in Allah’s oneness), high above is He.His right to be worshipped and His Lordship.
One of that books Said: Shikh Jilani and other four shikhs (we)found this universe while it was like a ball then we expanded (fatahinaha) they use that arabic word which means then we expended..Which contradicts what And Allah (SWT) said .

This book as indicates its named it reveals the qaib(unknown world) wchich Allaah (SWT) only knows, That people believe some philosophy whcich argue that the knowledge of islam is two. One part is suppose to learn and know by ordinary people while other knowledge which is more widely they call (Elmi Badni) which means the knowledge of deep secrets is only known by some scholars(welis), which against the teachings of Islam, while the Islamic teachings is clear .
The last pilgrimage of our prophet (PBUH) the famous Hadis, he declares that from that day Allaah (SWT) finished our religion, which means that no other part of Islamic knowledge given some other shikhs after that day.
The prophet(pbuh) said I left you two things if you follow after me, you will no lost (sunati wa Quran) which means my tradition (his Hadis & his actions) and Quran karim.

Sisters and brothers please better to read these books thoroughly, you will understand the truth behind them…. And remember always the towhid of Allah.

I think this Website is enough for every one to get the true interpretation of Islam.

If you see this website left side corner menu,you can go to every headings you will get some knowledge of islam Esp. under the title( Article-) I think every one can get the correct answer of what the towhid is….

Assalamu' alaikum

I'm close to reading the whole book. But I don't find anything that you meant. That is 'the book is nothing but shirk.' Instead the book or I should say the discourses by Shaykh Abd al-Qadir Jilani helped me spiritually (not forgetting that Al-Quran is the best of all others). If you could, provide me with evidence from the book, I'm reading itself, that it's shirk. You could click on the link below. It has few discourses from the book itself.
