Encounter Of Hadhrat Maryam (as) With The Angels
Sir, That’s why Ibn-i Arabi (ra) suggested that if this was possible for the non-prophetic personalities in that era, then surely it is be possible for the ummah of Prophet (sav), too. Many people are reported to have encountered Prophet (sav) in their dreams after which they converted to Islam. And During the time of Prophet Musa (as) and Prophet Isa (as), all the Israelites saw many things, which are un-imaginable. Those scholars who have claimed to have been encountered with God in their dreams, never claimed that they saw Almighty directly. Such as, What Ibn-i Arabi (ra) wrote in Futuhat-e-Makkiyya.
Indeed, we should believe on the unseen, and that’s the test. But, As I have said before Ibn-i Arabi (ra) never claimed to witness God, directly. And many predictions made by the Sufis, have came true now. I know that anyone can have the ability to make predictions from birth, as Bana Vanga (may she rest in peace) also predicted many events, which have been came true, now. But, Sufis are never claimed to be like that, from birth. It is stated that, they get these extra-ordinary from their own struggles. There may be some Sufis who have justified the evil and rebellious act of Satan, as there are some mislead Sufis orders. But, the senior well-respected Sufis never justified the act. Can we clearly and directly prove through Qur’an and Sunnah, that the beliefs of the major Sufis are not in accordance with Islam? There are the verses of the Holy Qur’an and some hadith such as Bukhari 6502, which are pointed by Sufis as the prove of the authenticity of their beliefs. Kindly shed some light on that, Thanks.
