The Knowledge of Mysticism

Many believers in Islam deny the existence of the Hidden Knowledge or the so-called Knowledge of the Old Folks, only because they did not unveil them.

The Knowledge hidden in Sulu in 710 Hijra by Zayn Al-Abidin (RA) is A-I-O also known as Usul Alif or Alif 3. The Symbol of this Knowledge is a Kris hand made by Zayn Al-Abidin (RA). This Kris was also the symbol of power of the defunct Sultanate of Sulu. The Land mark of this Knowledge is found on Mt. Datu', Indanan, Sulu. This Land mark consists of the grave of AHMAD Timhar Muqbalu (RA) and footprints of Zayn Al-Abidin (RA) with 710 hijra written nearby. 710 Hijra is more or less 1290 in the Gregorian calendar.

A-I-O is a Triangle that can be likened to the Christian Trinity where one cannot exist without the others and one is equal the others. Both the Christians and the so-called Muslim begin their worship with Trinity but with different words, connotations and beliefs. The Christians say in the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit while the so-called Muslims say Allah Ho Akbar. The so-called Muslim also begins reading The Qur'an with another Trinity Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. The Christians are correct in the wrong way while the so-called Muslims are wrong in the the right way. Both must research and improve.

A is Ma'rifat. Ma'rifat is the Knowledge about Allah (SWT). Since Allah (SWT) is beyond comprehension, to know Him is to study the highest form of His Creation and that is the human being. Know thyself to know Allah (SWT) or the one who knows himself knows Allah (SWT). Know and understand the six (6) stages of human creation if one wants to know Allah(SWT).

Ma'rifat has four (4) principles: La; Ilaha; Illa; Allah. The literal interpretation of La Ilaha Illa Allah is Nothing worthy of worship but Allah (SWT) while the mystic interpretation is Body for La, Heart for Ilaha, Soul for Illa and Mind for Allah.

I is Tawhid. Tawhid means Oneness or Union with Allah (SWT). Know and understand the twenty four (24) elements that became the human being and be in link with Allah (SWT) in twenty four (24) hours.

Tawhid has also four (4) principles: Jat; Sifat; Asma; Af-al. Jat means Body of Allah (SWT). Sifat means Face or Attributes of Allah (SWT). Asma means Name/Names of Allah (SWT). Af-al means Actions or Law of Allah (SWT). Practice the principles of Tawhid and be a real worshipper of Allah (SWT). Have a Union with Allah (SWT) and love His creatures. Never allow Allah (SWT) to have a union with you otherwise you will worship yourself and become arrogant. One who worships oneself also worships wealth and power and forgets Allah (SWT).

O is Iman. Iman is Faith. Faith means patience and perseverance in the belief of the Oneness of Allah (SWT). Iman has six (6) principles: belief in the Oneness of Allah (SWT); in His Angels; in His Books; in His Prophets and Messengers; in the Last Day and Good & Bad Destiny emanate from Allah (SWT). The first principle of Iman encompasses all others since all other principles originated from the Oneness of Allah (SWT). Failure in one principle is failure in the totality of Iman.

The Last two (2) principles of Iman were rejected in Middle East. The fifth (5th) principle was rejected by the Jews when they rejected Jesus (AS). The sixth (6th) principle was rejected by the Arabs when they oppressed and suppressed the descendants of Prophet Muhammad (SAW). This is why the descendants of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) migrated to the Far East, particularly in Sulu, Philippines, because the last two (2) principles of Iman will be performed by his descendants here.

The triangle of Ma'rifat, Tawhid and Iman prepares the human being to carry out Islam. Without the triangle of Ma'rifat, Tawhid and Iman, Islam will never stand. Islam is the Divine Law embodied in the Qur'an when enforce becomes the Divine Government. Thus the so-called Trinity in Unity is not Christianity but Islam.

Islam has five (5) principles: Shahadat [ the bearing witness that ALLAH (SWT) is the Diety while Muhammad (SAW) is His Messenger ]; Salah [ the five (5) times ritual prayers in twenty four (24) hours ]; Sawum [ thirty (30) days fasting in Ramadhan , 9th month in Hijra calendar ]; Zakat [ charity ] and Haj [ pilgrimage to the Holy Land in Saudi Arabia once in a lifetime ]. This write up does not deal with Islam, this is only mentioned to complete the nineteen (19) principles of Ma'rifat, Tawhid, Iman and Islam that correspond to the nineteen (19) letters of the Arabic Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, the beginning of the Qur'an. Ma'rifat, Tawhid, Iman and Islam are the four (4) principles of Dinul Fitra. Dinul Fitra means the Natural Religion. Dinul Fitra is hidden behind verse 30, Surah Rum or the Roman Empire.

The triangle of Ma'rifat, Tawhid and Iman or A-I-O is here in the Far East while Islam is left in Middle East. Nothing hidden in Islam because the four (4) Mazhab; Shafii, Maliki, Hanbali and Hanafi studied and published everything about Islam.

The knowledge of A-I-O is referred to as the Hidden Knowledge or the Knowledge of the Old Folks while Islam is referred to as the New Knowledge or the Knowledge of the New Generation. This way, the so-called Muslim can be likened to the Christians who have an Old and New Testaments.

The human manifestations of A-I-O were Sultan Shariful Hashim (RA), Sultan Kabungsuhan (RA) and Sultan Awliya Abdul Qadir Jaelan (RA). They did their share in Destiny for the welfare of the followers of Prophet Muhammad (SAW). The time of the Sultan and the Sultanate is gone.

The other Knowledge hidden in Sulu in 1850 is Noqta. This Knowledge was hidden by Sultan Awliya Abdul Qadir Jaelan (RA). The Symbol of this Knowledge is a Qur'an written by the Sultan Awliya (RA) himself. The Land mark of Noqta is found at Lower Patibulan, Panamao, Sulu. This Land mark consists of a body of water called Tubig Luuk, a tree called Dibayan and a mosque called Masjid Luuk.

Noqta means the point of beginning and end in drawing a cirle. Noqta is the Soul for the Far East. Noqta is hidden behind verse 85, Surah Al-Isra or Bani Israel. Noqta is also the study of the Breath. N is Naqsabandi; Q is Qadhiriyyah; T is Tariqatun Anfas ( the way of the Breath ). The worship in the Knowledge of A-I-O is Purification and practice through the Breath or in Meditation. Behind A is Purification of the Body or Istinja. The Meditation in Istinja is equal to ten (10) years of worship. Behind I is the Meditation that watches and feels the Breath in darkness, inhale purifies the Heart while exhale purifies the Mind. This Meditation may equal to fifthy (50), sixty (60), or even seventy (70) years of worship. Behind O is Junub or the perfect sexual relation between husband and wife. The Meditation in Junub is equal to one thousand (1,000) years of worship. Imperfect sexual relation between man and woman may pro-create the friends of Satan.

Most preachers of Islam urge the removal of Meditation. How can the Purification of the Body, Heart, Soul and Mind be achieved without Meditation? While Salah or Prayer is the pillar of Islam, the pillar of Salah or prayer is Purification.

The human manifestation of Noqta is a woman descendant of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) in Sulu coming from the blood lineage of the human manifestations of A-I-O. When Noqta manifests, the Qur'an is opened in the middle, this is the time when the mischief of the Gog and Magog people is at its height. But the Gog and Magog will be cut because the Cave has barrier inside left by the first Zulqarnayn, Zayn Al-Abidin (RA). This barrier is the Hidden Knowledge of A-I-O.

The manifestation of Noqta is the Suluk, the woman who left Allah (SWT) only to return to Him. The gold Fish (Map of Jolo, Sulu); the baby Elephant (Map of mainland Mindanao) and the Camel (Map of the Philippines) will live their eternal life in the life of the Suluk. The Suluk on her own right is a Trinity. The Suluk will replace the human manifestations of A-I-O. Only the manifestation of another Knowledge can replace the manifestations of a Knowledge.

The Suluk and her Ahlus Suluk (the Filipinos today) is the third and last Beloved and Chosen people of Allah (SWT).

The Suluk is the rightful heir of the Sultanate of Sulu and also the rightful heir of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) in the Far East.
