3 - ilm-e-ghaib - (Knowledge of Unseen)

8. CONCLUSIVE FACTS CONCERNING I'LM-I-GHAYB
From what has been discussed with apparent justification and
presentable conviction, the following broad basic realities about the
Knowledge of the Unseen must be borne inmind to avoid any pitfalls
from any biased and intense quarters in this behalf.
A. This first thing to be noted in this connection is that the
"Unseen" is a reality, concrete and irrefutable.
B. That the "I'lm-i-Ghayb" or the"Knowledge of the Unseen" belongs
exclusively to Allah the Almighty as His Exclusive Divine Prerogative,
nonehaving any share in it, orany power to controvert and refute His
Exclusive Domain. His knowledge is total.
C. Allah the Almighty bestows this Knowledge of the Unseen
(I'lm-i-Ghayb) to his chosen servants.
D. Allah the Almighty has granted this Knowledge of the Unseen to the
Apostles and Prophets.
E. Allah the Almighty has granted this Knowledge of the Unseen to the
HolyProphet Hazrat Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).
F. The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) bestowed
thisKnowledge of the Unseen (I'lm-i-Ghayb) to his companions who in
turn passed this knowledge to the qualified persons who were entrusted
with the mission to propagate the Religion of Allah to succeeding
generations.
No doubt, the great poetphilosopher of Islam, Allama Iqbal, has aptly
summed up the illustrious personality of the Holy Prophet (sallal
laahu alaihi wasallam) inone of his beautiful couplets:
"Lauh bhi tu, Qalam bhi tu, tera wajud Al-KitabGhumbad-e-Abgina rang
tere muheet mein habab"
"You are O Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) theScroll (of
human destiny), you are the pen of Divine(with powers) to scribe and
delineate the affairs of the universe, you are thepersonification of
the Book of Allah.This vast glassy canopy (the sky) isnot more than a
bubblein the vast ocean of your August Knowledge."
