Tolerence: A Principle of Nature


Following article in the December, 2012 issue of Ubqari is particularly interesting. This was written by Maulana Waheed-ud-deen Khan.

Tolerance is a universal principle of the nature. Both lion and elephant are big animals. Both have the capacity of being rivals of each other. Even then they coexist in the jungle together. This is only possible due to tolerance. Thus, it has been seen in the jungle that if from one side an elephant is coming and from another a lion is coming, both of them pass by and take their directions quietly, without confronting each other. If they do not tolerate each other like this, both of them will start fighting with each other to the point of their mutual destruction.

Nature has taught this method to the lion and elephant. Similarly, nature has developed a capacity for tolerance in human body too. This is known as biological tolerance in medical science. It means an ability of the animalistic body, that without taking negative effects from a certain thing, it can tolerate a connection with it, or an insertion of it in the body.

The whole mechanism of curing diseases is based on this ability. At the time of illness, such medicines are admitted in the body that are collectively bad for the body. But despite its sensitivity to the foreign things, the body endures these medicines. This is done due to tolerance. This becomes possible due to this biological tolerance that these medicines enter the body and show their effect. That they can can affect the intended organ positively without negatively affecting other organs of the body. Similar procedure of tolerance is sought in the human society too. What wild animals do according to their instincts and what the human body does according to the nature, should be done by the human beings according to their consciousness. They should spend their lives with other according to a planned decision and by adopting the procedure of tolerance.

Similarly this is also very interesting: "why are animals so "gentlemanly or ladylike" in contests for resources?" This was a problem that leading ethologists Niko Tinbergen and Konrad Lorenz were trying to address. Tinbergen proposed that such behavior exists for the benefit of the species. I found it interesting while reading about evolutionary game theory a couple of years ago.

Spiritual Shower

To maintain health, prosperity and a peaceful life and to get rid of illness, once sick, are important necessities of human nature. The diseases contracted by human beings are of both types; spiritual and physical. The healing cure of both types of illnesses is given in Quran-e-hakeem and Ahadith-e-mubarka.

Islam is a pure religion and prefers cleanliness and hygiene. That is why ablution has been ordered along with five diurnal prayers. And it has been ordered to wash those parts of the body that get dirty frequently. And then taking a bath has been made obligatory at least once in a week so that the whole body becomes neat and clean. The wonderful spiritual shower of Aulia Allah (friends of Allah) is such a powerful deed that contains the saying of Allah, meaning aayahs of Quran-e-hakeem and the procedure of the Prophet of Allah, Hazrat Muhammad (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).That is why it is a flawless and tested deed for every illness and worry. Thousands have tested it and you are also requested to test it with the power of belief. Allah almighty definitely accepts the deed which has strength in it.
The procedure of spiritual shower is that the last six surahs of Quran-e-hakeem be recited with tasmiya and by reciting dared sharif before and after reciting the surahs three times each. And after that recite the prayer of entering the wash room.

بِسْمِ اللہِ اَللّٰھُمَّ اِ نِّیْ اَ عُوْذُبِکَ مِنَ الْخُبْثِ وَالْخَبَاءِثِ
Translation: In the name of Allah, O Allah. I seek refuge in You from the male female evil and Jinns

After reciting this enter the washroom using your left foot. Take the shower according to the sunnah. While bathing keep reciting the above mentioned prayer in your heart. Do not recite with your tongue at all. And imagine about whatever illness or worry you have and think that that is also cleaning and getting away with that. After this when you come out, do it with your right foot and recite the prayer of coming out of the washroom/toilet.

غُفْرَانَكَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَذْهَبَ عَنِّي الْأَذَى وَعَافَانِي

Translation: (O Allah) I seek forgiveness and pardon from You. All Praise be to Allah, who removed the difficulty from me and gave me ease (relief)


And then after this recite the last six surahs of Quran-e-hakeem in the same manner as described above. Beging and end by reciting dared sharif three times.
The last six surahs are as follows: (1) Surah Kaafiroon, (2) Surah Nasar (3) Surah Lahab (4) Surah Ikhlas (5) Surah Falaq (6) Surah Naas. These can also be downloaded from the following link as an mp3 file.

Check this out on Chirbit
Note: Please do not recite the six surahs before going to the washroom if you wish to have ghusal-e-janabat, that is a shower to remove impurity. In that case, recite the surahs twice after coming out of the washroom.

Healing With Meditation

While meditation has remained a source of spiritual enhancement and a solution of worldly problems since ever, modern science has also endorsed it as a cure for illnesses and diseases. After thousands of experiences "healing with meditation" is offered for the readers of Ubqari. While going to sleep, it is much better to perform ablution and to be clean and pure, otherwise in any situation, sit on the bed for ten minutes and recite Ya Allah-o, Ya Rehman-o, Ya Raheem-o, Ya Hayyu, Ya-Qayuum-o innumerable (preferably more than 500) times. Recite Durood Sharif 3 times before beginning and end and lie down on the bed. By keeping in mind the problem or illness that affects you, and you want it to end, imagine that from the sky a golden light is entering into my whole body through my head and is terminating my illness or solving my problem. And by the blessing of this wazifa  I have been redeemed of this problem completely. So much so that by persistent repetition of this imagination you go to sleep.In the beginning you will find it difficult to stretch this imagination. But after a while when the wonders of meditation will be revealed to you, the unique world of wonders and 100% cure of the problems will astonish you. Do not forget to write to us about your feelings, benefits and unique experiences after meditation.

Wishful Thinking

Consider a person who is himself a neurosurgeon, and due to some odd illness, he has to undergo clinical comma. During the coma he has visions of a paradise full of angels, palaces, birds chirping and cherubic kids. Clearly, he is in heaven. It does not matter whether he had those visions while he was in coma, or while he was entering that state of coma, or while he was coming out. What matters is that what he saw was a function of his religious upbringing in this earthly life, and what he saw was what he wanted to see. This is a result of his wishful thinking.

Consider another person. For some odd reason he wants to create violence of a huge magnitude. In return for that he has the promise of rewards of an otherworldly life. That no matter how much his past life was messed up by events over which he had no control, he has a bright chance of resting in peace in a heaven. Whether or not he will go to heaven will depend upon what happens to him once he is dead. His motivations have, however, ensued from wishful thinking.

Consider yet another person. He saw all the mess that real world is and grew up to become an agnostic. He studied neuroscience and developed a theory that heaven and hell exist only but in the mind. That when people die they live in an eternal oblivion. That a dead person is as good as an unborn person. That the idea that if you do good deeds, you go to heaven, and that if you do bad deeds, you go to a hell, is a product of wishful thinking. His desire for there being nothing after death is also wishful thinking.

Wisdom of the Alchemist

I read Paulo Coelho's, "The Alchemist" back in year 2000. It was given to me by a friend, Salman Ateeque, who lives somewhere in Africa now. The book has many wise anecdotes told by the Alchemist to Santiago. I am writing one here from memory and it is followed by what I thought about it then. The story is not stated here verbatim as I tend to forget bits of it but the central theme and details are hopefully true.

Somewhere in the middle of the book the Alchemist tells Santiago a story of a person who used to live in the Roman Empire. The person had a dream in which, possibly an angel, told him that one of his two sons would grow up to be very famous. When the man woke up he thought that it would be the poet son who would become famous for his poetry and it could not be the other son as he was in the army. It turned out the the son who was in the army progressed to become a centurion. And on a military campaign when one of his soldiers got badly injured he was advised by his fellow men to travel to middle east to a man who cured lepers. The centurion did so and eventually met Jesus Christ (probably but I am not sure, it could some other religious figure). He begged Jesus for his soldier's health and the words he used latter became a prayer. That was the reason for his fame.

At that time two things surprised me. The first was that as the father saw the dream he suspected the poet to be famous. It was strange for me to imagine that the father would think like that. For me it was natural to think that the one in army would become famous. After all army officials get to positions of prestige eventually and Roman Empire, for the large part, was a military oriented regime. It was strange to think that father would consider the poet to be lucky. But that probably owes to the fact that I am from Pakistan, where the profession of armed forces is considered much prestigious.

The other thing I inferred was that it is not necessary that whatever one thinks would come out to be true. The father thought about one son, whereas the other one became famous. This can be observed normally in rural areas of Pakistan when parents normally decide as to what the son is destined to do when he grows up even while the son is in the cradle. And depending upon the looks of the child he/she is either sent to a better school or a not so good one. And normally the instrument used for this judgement is the wise gaze of an elderly paternal figure.

Doom of the Jinn

Much earlier in my life, like when I was 6 or 7 years old, I saw a play on television titled "jinn ka zawwaal", which literally means "Doom of the Jinn". The play was symbolic and had the following plot.

A funny looking lean guy is sitting in his room with a lamp in his hand. He rubs the lamp and all of a sudden a giant, scary looking, really big, black man with horns in his head and a painted face appears in front of the lean guy and asks in his rather loud voice. "What can I do for you my master". Clearly, he is a jinn. The owner of the lamp, at first, gets frightened at his sudden appearance and shivers. The jinn tries to calm him down and somehow convinces him that he is his subservient as he owns the lamp and would do anything he demanded of him. After a while, after regaining composure, the gaunt guy, due to lack of a better idea, asked him to iron the clothes. The jinn got confused a little but then fulfilled the wish and disappeared.

As the play progressed the gaunt guy found an interest in the utility of the jinn and kept on rubbing the lamp again and again. And every time the jinn appeared before him and asked for his command, the gaunt guy told him to do trivial things, such as washing the clothes, polishing the shoes and doing the dishes. After a few episode breaks and after a few appearances the jinn started shrinking in size. By the end of the play he stood in the corner of the room having a size of a midget, pale and melancholic, ironing the clothes. The play subsequently ended. At that time it was more funny than horrific.

The play was probably symbolic in nature, as I latter thought about it as I grew older, like in the mid twenties. To me the jinn was probably synonymous for other things, such as mental faculties. As opposed to doing things such as polishing the shoes, the jinn expected to be building castles with in the blink of an eye, or to aid in long distance traveling in a really short period of time. As the gaunt guy was using him for trivial things such as polishing the shoes, the jinn not only got depressed, he also started shrinking. Such is probably the case with human expansive abilities.

At that time scripts for plays and drama serials were written with much creative vigor by people who used to obtain formal training in poetic and prosaic literature. The play was cast on Pakistan Television.
