The question is why the forgiveness was granted. It is either due to the grace of Allah, or due to the reasons that lead to it. The reasons are twofold: Firstly, the souls' desire to know the realities of names and to comprehend their meanings, and to encompass matters. Secondly, the delight in acting upon the forgiven deeds, the desire for it, the strengthening of hope, and the good opinion of Allah that He will grant it and attach to it. If the forgiveness is purely from grace, then Allah knows best. I said, when I was in the world, I wrote down the name of the servant of Allah, which is Abdul-Ilah, and the name of the Prophet, peace be upon him, or his specific name, which is Ahmad. When his mention came, I prayed for him. And the book is by whom? And its author and master. Or the book of another, but its being... And the word "his" implies that the intended is another, may Allah bless him. And if it was my father, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, as previously mentioned, the reason for that is my Lord's forgiveness and His giving. The word "my Lord" was omitted in some manuscripts. Meaning, what... I do not see it raised from me because I do not have a sister, and the pronoun is omitted from the attached possessive. And I do not hear it, it is a description of what I have connected, or I have not heard it. It is connected to the previous one. And the discussion about it is like the previous one. Or it is not possible to grasp it. It is often transmitted. And the depiction and vocalization of names. And matters of the hereafter that are beyond the scope of this intellect and its capacity and world. So, what we have mentioned about forgiveness and what Allah has granted him. And I saw that when he is forgiven, he is given what is mentioned. He is not given that except when he is forgiven. And this is given to him before the Day of Resurrection by showing him his place in Paradise and what has been prepared for him. And Paradise contains what no eye has seen, nor ear has heard, nor has it crossed the heart of any human. Allah Almighty says: "So no soul knows what delights are hidden for them." And the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: "Allah says: 'I have prepared for My righteous servants what no eye has seen, nor ear has heard, nor has it crossed the heart of any human.'" This is a parable that Allah has given. And the rivers are flowing, and it is not a delusion of dreams, nor is it the play of Satan, nor is it what is revealed from the soul, nor from the humors of the four temperaments. And among them is the virtue of praying for him, peace be upon him. It is known from the Sharia. And the author has already mentioned this vision from the virtue of praying for him. He made it a prayer for him, and it is like that. It is a matter of justice. It is from the messengers of Allah, as he indicated by describing him as such. So it is part of the prophethood. And this vision is the mention of his description as righteous, then seeing him, and it is a true vision, not a dream. And it is not in need of interpretation. And Allah knows best. It is proven by Al-Shadhin, Al-Sa'id, Al-Nasa'i, and Ibn Majah from Anas bin Malik Al-Ansari, who was a servant of... And he said: May Allah bless him and grant him peace. In the narration of... So he was given what no eye has seen, nor ear has heard, nor has it crossed the heart of any human, from Anas.
