because an ill person attains such blessings and good fortune of benefits that if an ill person came to know of them, he would actually prefer to remain ill; hence,
Illness is also a great blessing
Sadr-ush-Shari’ah, Badr-ut-Tareeqah, ‘Allamah Maulana Mufti Muhammad Amjad ‘Ali A’zami رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْه has said, ‘Disease is also a great blessing with countless advantages, though a person is apparently troubled from it. In fact, it brings a great treasure of comfort and peace with it. This apparent disease that is considered an illness is actually an excellent cure of spiritual diseases. Real diseases are spiritual diseases (e.g. love for the world, greed for wealth, miserliness, hardheartedness etc.) because they are very dangerous and should be considered fatal diseases.’ (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, p. 799)
۔3The third matter that one comes
to know is that The Noble Prophet
صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ
وَسَلَّم is
not a human like us; let alone seeing angels, we even find it really difficult
to see a big thing or person present at a certain distance. But may we be

hidden enlightened creation, i.e. the angels, but also their purpose, and the
place and person they were finding, the reason for which the person offering
Salah stopped attending, what the angels requested to the Lord Almighty having gone
back, and what Allah Almighty stated in relation to that ill person – he صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ
وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم also saw all of these matters as well.
The greatness and eminence of the vision of the Noble Prophet
Mentioning the greatness and eminence of the vision of the Noble Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, Hakeem-ul-Ummah Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan Na’eemi رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْه writes, ‘The (Noble) Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is aware of his every follower and every action of every follower. The vision of the Noble Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم sees darkness, light, the apparent, the hidden, the present, the absent; every single thing (that will perish).
