Knowledge of Sufism is from the heart and that’s why it is called heart-knowledge. This knowledge is not gained by the books, advice, and speeches but it is produced from the eyes of a wise sufi. The door of knowledge- Hazrat Ali (K.W.K) says, “Indeed the knowledge of Sufism is not that knowledge which can be acquired from recitations, readings, and listening of the books, because it is not the creed-like sayings of others but it is something which is sent by ALLAH from the skies on the hearts of the believers day by day, each moment. Then the believer’s heart is filled with reality and their Nafs-E-Ammara(Lower Self) is transformed into Nafs-E-Mutmaeena (state of content, happiness, and satisfaction) and then his chest is opened and filled with the divine light”
(AAYENA -E- HAQIQAT- MAULANA ABDUL HADI KHAN’KAVISH’)
Reciting names of the LORD you became the HAAFIZ(Quran memo riser)but there still exists a curtain; gaining information you became the scholar but still you are attracted towards this world; you read so many books but still you could not kill your Nafs-E-Ammara(Lower Self);this Nafs-E-Ammara spoils and destroys you from within; nobody could kill it other than the Sufis and the Dervishes.

Till you worship ALLAH with the state of ignorance then ALLAH will throw away all the worship’s on your face because it’s a worship which is similar to the IGNORANCE. Ignorance is evil from head to toe. Oh you ignorant! Gain the true knowledge for the sake of ALLAH and follow it so it will make you the respected one. KNOWLEDGE is Life and ignorance is death. When a person gains knowledge, acquire good nature and brings it into practice then he becomes the king of the religion of THE ALMIGHTY!.

And live life obediently only for the sake of ALLAH.

LOVE is a gift of GOD. Love done with need is not LOVE because it will vanish as soon as the need is completed. The reward of true love is not paradise but the reward of love is meeting with friend.
So increase love so that love only remains and this is the only work of the Sufis.
