the other. I asked if it was possible. He replied in the positive and said that the soul of a believer is free; it can go wherever it wants on the earth.

Afterwards Sayyiduna Salman Farsi رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ passed away. One day I was taking a nap after lunch, suddenly Sayyiduna Salman Farsi رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ appeared before me and said in a loud voice: ‘اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَیْکُمْ وَرَحْمَۃُ اللہِ وَبَرَکَاتُہ’ I said in reply: ‘وَعَلَیْکُمُ السَّلاَمُ وَرَحْمَۃُ اللّٰہِ وَبَرَکَاتُہ’ and asked him: What happened to you after death? And what rank do you have? He replied: I am in a very good state and I advise you to always place absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ because absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is the best thing; absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is the best thing; absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is the best thing. He repeated this sentence three times. (Shawahid-un-Nubuwwah, pp. 287)

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! It has become obvious that placing absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is useful for the world and the Hereafter both. Let’s listen to its further worldly and Hereafter advantages.

Advantages of placing absolute trust in Allah

1.         One who places absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, stays safe from worries. Sayyiduna Daata Ganj Bakhsh ‘Ali Hajwayri رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said: One day my spiritual leader intended to go to Damascus from Bayt-ul-Jinn. I was walking with great difficulty in mud due to rain, but when I saw that the clothes and slippers of my spiritual leader were dry I humbly asked him: (I asked him about the reason behind this astonishing event) so he replied: Since I ended my intention in the path of absolute trust in      Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and saved my inner self from the fear of greed, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has saved me from the mud. (Kashf-ul-Mahjoob, pp. 255) That is to say, by virtue of the blessing of placing absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ I have been left free from the worldly troubles.
