Who are the allies of Allah

1. People having Karamaat but the Innovators also are deceived with Karamaat from Iblis Who are the allies of Allah

2. For example, they may put a pair of pants on the grave, and come back to find it tied in a knot, or they may bring someone who is possessed to the grave, and see the jinn who has afflicted him leave him. The devil does this to lead them further astray. If Ayat-ul-Kursiy is read there with true belief and intention, none of these things will happen. Tauhid drives shaitaan away. This is why some of them have been carried in the air and when they said: "Laa ilaha illa Allah" (There is no deity but Allah), they fell to the earth. When some of them see the grave split open and someone coming out of it they imagine to be the dead man, it is really a shaitaan. The people of innovations (bid'a) and the people of shirk experience phenomena at the tombs which they visit which they imagine to be karamaat, in reality is from the devils.

3. The devils frequently make their abode in caves and on mountains. When issolate in these caves men appear to the people. They call them "the men of the unseen", and they are nothing but men of the jinn. The jinn are "men", just as humans are men. Allah said: “And verily some men from among the humans used to seek refuge in men from among the jinn, and so the latter merely increased the former in their burden (their burden of fear as the jinn gain more ability to strike fear into them due to their shirk, and their burden of sin, as they sink deeper and deeper into the shirk of seeking the protection of the jinn instead of Allah.)” (Qur'an 72:7) Many muslims like to isolate themselves in caves and the likes – this is an innovation and opens the door to shaytaan:

4. On every mountain of the ones mentioned earlier are the forty Abdaal Those who they believe to be the abdaal are the jinn who live on those mountains, as is well known in a number of ways. Some of these jinn appear in the form of a man covered with hair, with skin like that of a goat, and people who do not know him think him to be a human, but he is a jinn. It is said:

5. 1) Some refuse to admit their existence except in the case of the prophets. Or they may accept their existence in general, but refuse to accept the reports which reach them about many people because they don't feel them to be among the allies of Allah. 2) Others believe that anyone who possesses some ability to perform miraculous feats is an ally of Allah. 3) The third position is the correct one. Indeed, they have with them helpers but they are of their own kind, not of the allies of Allah. Allah said: “O, you who believe, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are allies of each other. Whoever among you turns his loyalty toward them is surely one of them.” (Qur'an 5:51) In relation to miraculous events, people have gone in three directions:

6. However, the "miracles" of such people contradict each other, and if a true ally of Allah of high degree came along, he would eliminate and destroy all of them. Also, there must of necessity be in the actions of these people lies - either intentional or in ignorance - and sins which are appropriate to the state of the devil which has attached himself to them. This is so that Allah may allow us to differentiate between His allies, those of pious practice and between those who mimic some of their characteristics from among the allies of shaitaan. Allah said: “Should I tell you upon whom the shayateen descend? They descend upon every forging sinner.” (Qur'an 26:221) These devotees and ascetics who are not among the allies of Allah are joined by devils. Then they will performmiraculous feats appropriate to their state.

7. “Their prayers at the Ka'ba were nothing but whistling and clapping sounds.” (Qur'an 8:35) Ibn Abbas, Ibn Umar and others among the first generations said: "The second word (At-tasdiya) means the clapping of hands, and the first word (Al-mukaa') means whistling, and this was the worship of the associationists." (Ibn Abbas, Ibn Umar, etc.) One of the most potent aids to the satanic states is the listening to singing and musical instruments. It is the worship of the associationists as Allah said:

8. The Prophet and his companions never gathered for listening to singing, nor clapping of hands, nor beating of drums, nor was (the Prophet) or any of his companions ever overcome with feeling nor did he drop his cape in ecstasy. All of these are lies about the Prophet in the unanimous opinion of the scholars of the hadith of the Prophet. When the companions met together, they used to have one of them read the Qur'an, and the rest would listen. Umar ibn Al-Khattab used to say to Abi Musa Al-Ash'ariy: Remind us of our Lord. Abi Musa would then recite the Qur'an, and all present would listen. "The Prophet once passed by Abu Musa while he was reading, and (later) said to him: I passed by you last night while you were reading, and I stayed listening to your reading. Abu Musa said: If I know that you were listening, I would have refined my reading much more." (Muslim and Bukhari) As for the Prophet and his companions, their worship was that which Allah had enjoined upon them: prayer, reading of the Qur'an, remembrance of Allah, etc, along with gatherings which are endorsed by the shari'a.

9. "Beautify the Qur'an with your voices." "Verily Allah listens more intently to the man who reads the Qur'an with a beautiful voice than the listening of the keepers of female singing servants to their singing." "The Prophet said to Ibn Masood: Read the Qur'an to me. He said: Should I read it to you and to you it was sent? The Prophet said: I like to hear it read by other than myself. He read for the Prophet from sura An-Nisaa until he came to the verse which reads: “So, how will it be when we bring from every nation a witness, and we bring you (i.e. Muhammad) as a witness over these (i.e. the Muslims)” 4:41. The Prophet said: That's enough, and his eyes were seen to be flowing with tears." He means that he would have made his voice more beautiful, as the Prophet said:

10. “These are the ones upon whom Allah has bestowed His grace of the prophets among the descendants of Adam, among those who we carried along with Nuh, and among the descendants of Ibrahim and Isra'il, and among those who we guided and selected. When the verses of the Merciful are recited to them they fall down in prostration and weeping.” (Qur'an 19:58) And, Allah said about the people of knowledge: “When they hear that which has been sent down to the Messenger, you can see their eyes flowing with tears because of the truth which they have recognized.” (Qur'an 5:83) This type of "listening" (samaa'), then is the listening of the prophets and their followers, just as Allah has mentioned in the Qur'an:

11. “It is Allah who sent down the best of discourses, completely consistent in its parts, each of them supporting and explaining the others. The skins of those who fear their Lord tremble from (hearing) it, then their skins and their hearts soften to the mentioning of Allah.”(Qur'an 39:23) “The believers are none other than those who, when Allah is mentioned, tremble in their hearts, and when Allah's verses are recited to them they are increased in faith, and depend fully on their Lord; Those who establish the prayer and spend of that which We have given them. These are the true believers, they will have high positions with their Lord, forgiveness, and fantastic bounty.” (Qur'an 8:2-4) Allah ta'ala has praised the people of this listening (i.e. whose "music" is the Qur'an) because of the increase in faith, the trembling of the flesh, and the tear of the eye. Allah said

12. This ritual music is like alcohol, in fact, its effect on the soul is more severe than the effects of drinking alcohol. This is why when the intoxication of the music becomes strong, the devils descend on the participants, speak on their tongues and carry some of them through the air. Enmity may also arise between them, just as it arises between the drinkers of intoxicants, and maybe the shaitaan of one of them is stronger than that of the other, and it kills his opponent. The ignorant ones then believe that to be of the karamaat of the allies of Allah. This only takes the one for whom it occurs farther from Allah, and it is nothing but a satanic phenomenon. The killing of a Muslim is not allowed except with the conditions with which Allah has allowed it. How, then, can the killing of a Muslim be of that with which Allah honors His allies? The farther one is from knowledge and from the completeness of his wilaya to Allah, the greater the share of shaitaan in him.
