maulana, agla sawal kya hai? mister salman ahmed ne, dilli se. unhon ne likha hai keh "If someone visualizes God, please tell me, is it right or wrong?" bilkul jhoot hai. yeh sufia ne ek bid'at nikali hai keh woh muraqba karte the, un ko jhalliyan dikhayi thin, unhon ne kaha tha, unhon ne Khuda ko dekha. sab phir jhooti baaten hain. hadith ne kaha hai keh jis ne kaha keh rasool Allah ne Khuda ko dekha, to jhoot kaha. waqt kazib. tujhe rasool Allah ne nahi dekha, to doosra kaun dekh sakta hai? sab shaitani baaten hain. is se toba karna chahiye. aap Khuda ko dekh nahi sakte is duniya mein.

aakhirat mein dekhenge, inshallah. yahan nahi dekh sakte. yahan to aap ko Khuda ko yaad karna hai, Khuda ki kitab ko padhna hai, Khuda par ghor o fikr karna hai, aur Khuda ki sifat mein, us ke attribute mein Khuda ko pana hai. yaad rakhiye, Khuda ki zaat mein aap nahi pa sakte Khuda ko. koi koi aap Khuda ki zaat ko. haan, us ki us ka creation samne hai hamare. us ka har cheez jo hai, har cheez mein Khuda ka kamalat dikhayi de rahe hain.
