Please tell me what you think of what the pir said, as I posted above.

I'm not trying to fuel argument, I just want to know so that I can better my own debates in the future.

Thanks,

J

I think hell is basically lust for the world and ignorance towards the truth. If we die, then it's just the state of being in a stationary spiritual state. We have been sent on Earth to either raise ourselves spiritually, and attain jannah in this life (inshallah) and the next, or throw it all away ...

So brother, I am very interested in hearing your thoughts, although my conviction is pure.

If a pir says that the Imam is the Manifestation of Allah, we must notice that he does not mean this in the physical sense, because the outer image is like the rest of us.

But the nur IS Allah.

Khudahafiz.

INSHALLAH this will lead you in the right direction. Written by PIR: Shihabu'd-din Shah Al-Husayni (the brother of our 48th imam and great uncle of Hazir Imam) Allah guides to his light whom he wilst. The rest of this book is posted on this very website for public viewing: http://ismaili.net/Source/...

By the way when I mean Imam is Allah, I mean esoterically. In the form of light. Don't treat me like I'm dumb, but obviously we don't pray to the physical form of the Imam, but we do pray to the noor of Imamat which I believe is the same essence of Allah, therefore being Allah. I encourage you to re...

Mowlana Sultan Muhammad Shah's brother, a pir, said in his book, the True Meaning of Religion, straight up, that the Imam is manifest Allah. As well as in many ginans. I know it depends on your understanding of light, but you're saying don't look physically and I am not. You are treating light as a ...

Imam/creator discussion - answer here
