Mohabbat e Auliya Ke Fazail

Book Name:Mohabbat e Auliya Ke Fazail

Countering Satanic whispers

Dear Islamic brothers! Ghawth al-Aʿẓam رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه bringing his murīd back to life and advising him to repent; this is indeed a powerful miracle. Some people, upon hearing such miracles of the saints, fall prey to various Satanic whispers, such as, "How is this possible? Giving life and taking it away is within Allah Almighty's power, how can a human revive the dead?”, “Once someone dies, returning to this world alive is not possible at all," and so on.

There is only one answer to all these whispers. Allah Almighty says:

وَ مَا  کَانَ عَطَـآءُ  رَبِّکَ  مَحْظُوْرًا (۲۰)

and the Bestowal of your Lord is not limited.[1]

It is understood that there is no limit to the bounty of Allah Almighty. He gives as much as He wills to whomsoever He wills. If Allah Almighty grants the power to revive the dead to one of His servants, then who can question the will of Allah Almighty?

Praise be to Allah! Our belief is that without Allah Almighty's will, no one can even move a single straw, let alone revive the dead. But, if Allah Almighty bestows this power upon someone, it becomes possible, and indeed, it happens. Praise be to Allah! Ghawth al-Aʿẓam  رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was granted the power by Allah Almighty to revive the dead. Is there anyone who can object to what Allah Almighty bestows?
