Superhuman powers
By Shaykh Zulfiqar Ahmad

Allah has made mankind an exceptional/unique creation.
He has blessed humans with such features that he has indeed surpassed the rest of the creation.
Allah blessed people with the noor of intellect.
If your look around you, you will see how man has made effort upon his intellect. As a result of which he has produced many marvels/phenomenon.
He made effort upon metal such that it became valuable.
He made effort upon sand such that it became valuable.
Whatever man worked on became valuable.

This of this as such:
Silicon is sand. Using silicon, integrated circuits are being made such that their value becomes far greater than gold of the same weight. An IC circuit if valued in contrast to gold of equal weight will be greater.
Consequently we can say: “Today man has made effort upon sand and made it more valuable than gold” it’s sold at double the price.
So making effort on sand makes it double in value compared to gold, what if man makes effort on himself why will he not become valuable in the eyes of Allah”

Today you see aeroplanes in the air; it transports tonnes in weight through the air.
O mankind, if you made effort on metal and made it fly, if you make effort on yourself why won’t you attain spiritual heights?
But nowadays the direction of our effort is on the outside rather than our inner selves.
That’s why outside there is progress everywhere, the latest innovations are being produced, the architecture of buildings is becoming more adventurous, cars are becoming better as well, whatever things you look at is getting better and better. However if mankind looks at themselves morally, they are declining.

[Poetry couplet]
The one who is always trying to discover the unknown,
He could not discover himself.

He who captured the rays of the sun,
Yet he failed to fill the void of his own life.
