| Haqiqatul-Wahi | 10 It is also worth remembering that when a Prophet or Messenger is appointed from heaven, a light descends from heaven corresponding to the grade of the talents, as a blessing of that Prophet, and a dispersion of spirituality takes place. At such a time everyone advances in experience of dreams and those gifted with the capacity for revelations experience revelations, and minds become more perceptive of the spiritual truths too. Just as, when it rains, every part of the land receives its due share, the same happens when spring arrives with the advent of a Prophet. The Prophet is, indeed, the source of all those blessings and he is the door to all the revelations and dreams people experience, for the world is transformed by his advent and a light descends for all from heaven and everyone partakes of in accordance with his capacity. This light becomes the source of all dreams and revelations. The ignorant think that this is due to their own skill, when in fact that spring of revelations and dreams is opened up for the world only due to the blessing of that prophet. His time is the ‘night of decree’ during which the angels descend, as Allah says [‘Therein descend angels and the Spirit with their Lord’s decree concerning every matter, it is all peace.’ (Surah al-Qadr, 97:5–6)]. This has been the law of nature, ever since God created the earth. (Author) |
