The
elderly people say ‘’The expert has a hundred different kinds
of tricks/plays but, he teaches ninety nine of them and keeps
one to himself.’’
The reason is that if he tells
about the play/ the trick which he has kept to himself, then he
will no longer be considered as a skilled expert, everybody
will start gossipping about him and the apprentice/the trainee
will defeat him immediately.
The expert is humanistic, good
natured and loving; he is a man of wisdom and his words/orders
add colour to life. He lives without fear, without getting
tired of anything, with an extraordinary patience which is super
human and without any compromise (from his principles).
The close interaction between the
members of the community is realized by means of him. There is
a part of him in all the things that one has done before or in
the things that are being done now.
The individual, by having a deep
rooted bond of love to his expert increases his own power.
The expert’s love makes the apprentice/the trainee gain a
strong will power and develop a strong personality. By means
of the expert the human being leaves aside his egotistic drives,
learns how to surrender and be a servant to Allah.
The expert is an important factor
in connecting the people and in making them differentiate
between the good and the bad. So, by means of him we can
differentiate the positive from the negative.
In the Quran-al Karim there is a
verse that says ‘’All of you get hold of the rope of Allah
firmly, do not loose the connection between each other and
remember the mercy of Allah over you. You were all
enemies to one another, but Allah made your hearts agree and
made them feel warm for each other.’’
In this verse, the statement ‘’Allah’s
rope’’ has been explained by some commentators as the
community, the society, but in principal it should be evaluated
as‘’Allah’s science/knowledge’’.
So, ‘’the expert’’
according to the meaning we perceive is the one who is
authorised to rasp/ to grate the rough parts in the behaviour
of the people who believe in him and who transfers this science/knowledge
to the ones who have the capacity and the talent.
With this aspect the experts
become the ones who deserve most to represent the truth. It is
only possible to get saved from the existing bad, ruined state
only by their assistance/help. There isn’t a single thing
that they do which has a scent of emotionalism. Theirs is not
an order of chaos.
During his lifetime if the
individual cuts off his relations with the expert, then this
means that he has lost control of himself and in a way it means
that he has terminated himself.
The experts go on living without
taking into consideration what the other people say about them
such as ‘’crazy’’, ‘’nonsense’’ or similar things.
They give willingly without
taking or expecting anything back. They live without asking for
any certain rank or a position. Their sole direction is the
path of Allah’s Rasul Hz.Mohammad.
No matter what their advancements
are they refrain from making the funny statements such as ‘’We
are the center of the world and everything is turning around
us.’’
However, in time, it is possible
to see that the good willed ones who do want to go on
following the path of the expert may diverge from their
objectives and they may act rudely, arrogantly towards these
people who were once very precious for them.
For these people who are full of
greed there is an open danger nearby. They should always keep
in mind that their illogical, on the surface behaviour trying to
prove their ego in every subject lacking the necessary
enlightenement and the training blocks them off from further
advancement on their paths.
Anyone who does not understand the
expert can neither perceive/evaluate the Absolute Creator nor
Allah’s Rasul.
How nice would it be if we could
only know that these magnificent/great upper level people whom
we like very much and from time to time to whom we get tied with
deep love
are able to sense our feelings and
thoughts!
