enlightened Explanation: Aulya is a person with a purified spirit:http://www.alislam.org/books/essence2/chap02a.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day1 hr (2010-01-02 23:21:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- When to a recipient of revelation are disclosed hidden matters and secret mysteries which cannot be discovered through the experience of reason alone, and a revealed book is found to contain wonders which are not to be discovered in any other book, a seeker after truth realizes that Divine revelation is an established truth. If such a person possesses a pure soul then he himself by treading on the right path can, to the degree of the illumination of his heart, have experience of Divine revelation like the Aulya, whereby he acquires a certain knowledge of the revelation vouchsafed to the Messengers of God. |
