To Stay or To MOve ?




To Stay or To Move :

The one who says, " No, because I have these important things to do", is of course blind, ignorant and lost, and only trouble will come to him because that itself is the contract of trouble.

The contract of Dunya is the contract of trouble....Thus, being free to go and free to stay, being free to move and being free
to be still - this is the mark of the Man. At this point you say that he is Rajul (full, mature and illuminated).

These are the RijalaLlah - those ones to whom these two ( almost similar to the states of Yin and Yang..cool shade and powerful hot sunlight, inward and outward, advance and retreat....etc ) are the same, because their only concern is what is pleasing
to Allah, subhanahu wa taala.

If there is compulsion for him to go, and he says, " No, I am going to stay", he will do it from this inner state and condition which means that they are the same for him. If they are not the same for him, he will hold back until he has achieved that balance in himself.

What that means is that the imposition and the demands and the necessities and the obligations of Dunya no longer matter to the heart of the Lover of Allah. The evidence of this- and this is the sign of the mature, experienced Sufi, the man who is strong on the Path - is that it is the same to him to stay (live in one place, city, state) or to go (travel, move,live) elsewhere.

This is the fifth phase of Seeker Love - Istinas - Desire for Attachment. Desire then comes to the lover to have this attachment to the Divine Experience. This manifest itself
by the breaking of the contracts of Dunya.
