The singular status of the Prophet (SAW) is the heart and the Essence of the phrase of tawheed [La ilaha ill-AllaaHu Muhammadun Rasul-Allaahu] and the foundation of Islam.

I shall share with you the knowledge of the Reality of the Holy Prophet (SAW) which is familiar to those belonging to the Khwajagan (school of dervishes):

The Shaykhs of the genuine Tariqahs (Sufi orders) are known as (part of) the Golden Chain because of their connection to the highest, most perfect human being, Muhammad (SAW), the First to be created, the First to be mentioned, the First to be honored.

When AllaaHu, ordered the Pen to write, it asked, "What shall I write?" and AllaaHu said, "Write 'La Ilaha Ill-AllaaHu.'" The Pen wrote "La Ilaha Ill-AllaaHu" for seventy-thousand of AllaaHu's years and then it stopped. One of AllaaHu's days is equal to one thousand of our years. Then Allah ordered it to write again, and the Pen asked, "What shall I write?" and AllaaHu answered, "Write Muhammadun Rasul-AllaaHu." And the Pen said, "O AllaaHu, who is this Muhammad that You have put Your Name next to his name?" AllaaHu said, "You must know that if it were not for Muhammad I would not have created anything in Creation." So the Pen wrote Muhammadun Rasul-AllaaHu for another seventy-thousand years.


When did AllaaHu order the Pen to Write? When did the Pen Write? When did that writing of "La ilaha ill-AllaaHu Muhammadun Rasul-Allaahu" occur? No one knows.



The mention of the name of the Prophet (SAW) by AllaaHu, Almighty and Exalted, is something which happened before the creation of anything, and its reality occurred in pre-Eternity.

That is the reason the Prophet (SAW) mentioned, "Kuntu Nabiyyan wa adamu bayni-l-ma'i wa-t-tin" - "I was a Prophet when Adam was between water and clay."

He (SAW) is the Perfect Human Being.

He (SAW) is the Seal of all prophets and messengers.



What can a weak servant say in order to honor the Master of Messengers? If it were not for him, no one would ever have known the Beloved, AllaaHu, Almighty and Exalted. Never would the fabric of the universe have been woven into existence as it has been woven. Therefore the pen cannot describe the Most Perfect of the perfect human beings, the Master of Masters, the King of Kings, the Sultan of Sultans of the Divine Presence.

He (SAW) is the Heart of the Divine Presence.

He (SAW) is the Heart of the Unique Essence.

He (SAW) is the Greatest Sign for Oneness and the Ultimate Sign of the Absolute Reality, al-Haqq. He (SAW) is known as the Secret of All Secrets.

He (SAW) is the only one addressed by Allah Almighty and Exalted, because he (SAW) is the only one considered responsible in the Presence of AllaaHu who said, "Were it not for him I would not have created any of My creation." All of the creation was given to the Prophet (SAW) as a divine gesture of honor from AllaaHu, Almighty and Exalted. Therefore the Prophet (SAW) is responsible for that creation which is his honor and his Trust. For that reason he (SAW) is the only one to be addressed in the Divine Presence.

The singular status of the Prophet (SAW) is the heart and the Essence of the phrase of tawheed [La ilaha ill-AllaaHu Muhammadun Rasul-Allaahu] and the foundation of Islam. The Prophet (SAW) is the "one soul" mentioned in the Qur'anic verse, "[O Mankind] Your creation and your resurrection is in no wise but as an individual soul" [31:28]. It is also the Prophet (SAW) who is the "single life" represented in the verse, "If anyone slew a person... it would be as if he slew the whole people: And if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people." [5:32]

The Prophet (SAW), moreover, referred to his responsibility in the hadith: "A'malakum tu'radu 'alayya kulla yawm," which means, "All your actions are shown to me every day. If they are good, I pray for you; if they are bad, I ask AllaaHu's forgiveness for you." That means that the Prophet (SAW) is the one who is responsible towards AllaaHu for his Community. That is why, as we said, he is "the only to be spoken to." It is the meaning of Intercession. AllaaHu refers to this intercession in the verse, "If they had only, when they were unjust to themselves, come unto thee and asked AllaaHu's forgiveness, and the Messenger had asked forgiveness for them, they would have found Allah indeed Oft-Returning, Most Merciful" [4:64].
