Some excerpts from Malfoozat e Arifi

Things that Change dust to Gold

I tell you the synopsis of my (80 years of) life: the catalyst for changing dust to gold;

1. As much as possible get prayers (dua) from the pious (awliya)
2. Respect the elderly
3. Be thankful for each and every gift (of Allah swt)

Malfoozat e Arifi 168

Love of Allah swt from Heart of Awliya

The Love of Allah swt is an entity which is transferred from the heart of Awliya when one is in their company. If one try’s to acquire it in solitude he will become mentally sick and never attain true love.

Secret of Repetition

Reading or discussing something repeatedly usually results in recalling it when its need arises. At that moment one needs spiritual determination to act according to it. Doing such for some time eventually leads to the creation of an instinctive inclination for acting so without effort.

Malfoozar e Arifi 167

Accompanying the Pious

Means;

1. To visit them often. And if they are far away to correspond with them via mail.
3. Asking them about religious information and act accordingly.
4. Telling them one’s spiritual deficiencies and acting on the treatment they prescribe.
5. Asking them to make prayers (dua) for you, in all circumstances.
6. Asking them (especially) how to get rid of the unlawful (non-shariah) items in your daily activities and acting on their advice with special consideration

Tastefulness of "Ilm

Arif-billah Hazrat Dr. Abdul Hayy Arifi ra said;

The physical form(surat) of knowledge (‘ilm) is found in books,
its reality in practicing it and
its tastefulness is experienced by accompanying the pious (awliya).”

(Malfoozat e Arifi 108)

Alchemy

Arif-billah Hazrat Dr. Abdul Hayy Arifi ra said;
‘For two minutes talk to Allah swt any time during the day telling Him,
“O Allah! I am inept, weak, unworthy, and unable to do any thing significant. Please, do have Your special benevolence for me.”
Say this all. Can’t you even do this?
You certainly have the power to articulate this. (And if you do so), Then you will see how your (spiritual) condition changes (for the better).
This is an alchemy prescription by our Hazrat Hakeemul Ummat ra.’
