Invoking God’s Infinite Mercy

English book, p. 43

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Invoking God’s Infinite Mercy On hearing this, Qazi Munzir felt relieved. He said to the messenger: “Go with rain, certainly it will rain today, because when the ruler of the earth bows in supplication, the Ruler of the Heaven will certainly show mercy.” And so it happened. By the time the messenger reached home, rain had started falling. (AlKamil fi at-Tarikh, vol. 7, p. 347) Drought takes place on the earth, so that the dryness of eyes may be replaced with tears. The clouds thunder in the skies, so that people’s hearts may tremble with the fear of the Lord. Heat becomes intense so that people may be reminded of the fire of Hell. Such events have a deep relation with the asma-ehusna and ism-e-aazam. If such events develop spiritual feelings within a person, he is granted the blessings of being able to call God the Lord of the world with the greatest prayer. Invoking God’s Infinite Mercy B y the grace of God, I have frequently had significant experiences. On December 30, 2006, I went to Lodhi Gardens with certain CPS members. It was in the nature of a spiritual outing for us. On this occasion, a dua came out of my lips, which as I understood it was a dua of isme-aazam.
