MUHAMMAD ALAIHISSALAM IS THE HIGHEST OF ALL CREATURES

Hadrat [1] Muhammad is the darling of Allahu ta’ala. The best of everything will be given to the darling.

As-sayyeed Abdulhakim-i Arwasi (rahmatullahi alaih) said, “Every prophet is superior to all his people in every respect, in his time, and in his place. Yet Muhammad (’alaihissalam) is the highest of all creatures which have come and will come to the world from the day it was created to Doomsday. No one is superior to him in any respect. This fact is not difficult to realize. Allahu ta’ala, who makes what He wills and what He chooses, created him so. No person has enough power to adequately praise him. No human being is able to criticize him.” It is written in the preface of the book Ma’rifatnama that Allahu ta’ala said, “Were it not for thee, I would not have created the heavens.” The same is also written in the sixth and thirteenth pages of the book Mawahib-i Ladunniyya and in the thirteenth and fifteenth pages of the book Anwar-i Muhammadiyya. This fact is stated also in the letters numbered 122 and 124 in the third volume of Maktubat by Imam-i Rabbani (rahmatullahi ta’ala alaih).
