LOVE FOR ALLAH’S WALI

A Buzrug in a dream saw an evil man who had died, being ushered into the Divine Presence. His Book of Deeds was filled with evil. However, Allah Ta’ala forgave him. The evil one asked: “O Allah! Why have You forgiven Me? All my deeds were evil.” Allah Ta’ala said: “Once a Wali, Bayazid Bustaami, was walking in the road. You were not aware who he was. When someone informed you that he was Bayazid Bustami, you cast a glance of affection and respect towards him. Since you looked with love at My Wali, I have forgiven you.” Although we are not among the Auliya of Allah, we should love them. Perhaps Allah Ta’ala will grant us piety and forgiveness on the basis of such love.
