Book Name:Shan e Mustafa
صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم; both the scholars of the outer and inner are incapable in this regard. Hence, Khuwajah Saalih Bin Mubarak Bukhari, the Khalifah of Khuwajah Sayyid Bahauddin Naqshbandi رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه writes on page 9 of ‘Anees-ut-Talibeen’:
The Sufis all agree that the closest station to that of Prophethood is the station of ‘Siddiqiyat.’ And in explaining the ranks of people in the court of Allah Almighty, Sultan-ul-Aarifeen Abu Yazeed Bistami رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه states, ‘The point to consider in the order of ranks is that where one rank ends, the other rank begins.’ He further states: The lowest rank is that of the common believers, above them are the Awliya, then the martyrs, then the Siddiqeen, then the Noble Prophets, then the Messengers of Allah Almighty, above the Messengers are those Messengers with tremendous determination and lofty aspirations, and the rank of the Beloved of Allah, Sayyiduna Muhammad صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم begins from where their rank ends.
And the rank of Sayyiduna Muhammad صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has no end, and nobody is aware of where his rank ends, except Allah Almighty. In the realm of souls, when Allah Almighty took the covenant from all souls, the rank of the souls was on these stations on that day, and will be on these stations on the Day of Judgement too.[1] Meaning, the rank of our Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was the highest in the realm of souls, and will be the highest on the Day of Judgement too.
The blessed saliva of the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم
Dear Islamic brothers, the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was sent as a mercy to all of creation. Due to him being a mercy, even his blessed saliva was such that it acted as a cure for the wounded and ill. His blessed saliva would nullify the effects of poison.
