The point of the poster is that only Allah Ta'ala knows best which is absolutely correct. Then he has mixed in the supremacy of Allah Ta'ala with the half-baked quote of his "Hazrat" which only Ta'ala knows:
- If the Shaykh has said incorrectly
- OR his recollection/understanding is faulty
- OR it is a translation error
It sounds similar to what Imam Tahawi (RA) said about direction, here:
www.central-mosque.com/index.php/Beliefs/belieftahawiyyah...
تَعَالَى اللَّهُ عَنِ الحُدُودِ وَالغَاياتِ، وَالأَرْكانِ وَالأَدَواتِ، لا تَحْوِيهِ الجِهَاتُ السِّتُّ كَسَائِرِ المُبْتَدَعاتِ
38. He is beyond having limits placed on Him, or being restricted, or having parts or limbs. Nor is He contained by the six directions as all created things are.
What are we supposed to do? This Sister seems to think that it is the height of courtesy to let anyone and everyone say whatever they want and just let it slide.
It is a forum and some people do take the time to read and understand every post and it is not criminal to ask "What are you talking about?"
OR "What is your Hazrat talking about?" What six directions???
Problem with Sufees is that they want everyone to merely accept whatever their "Hazrats (or Shuyukh to put it politely) utter" like we take the Qur'aan and Sunnah without question.
The point of the brother would have been perfectly valid and sufficient by the statement, "The word of Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) is final because he is guided by Allah Ta'ala".
What in the world is the issue with six directions? If taken literally human eye has peripheral vision and traverses many physical directions. If taken in some sort of metaphysical sense then how to you make 6 people coordinate this issue?
