AWLIYA KIRAM - The Freinds of ALLAH
Allah loves them, so should we.
Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) says in the Qur'an Majid :
"Listen carefully and no doubt there is no fear nor any grief upon the friends of Allah." (Surah Yunus : 62 ).
This verse shows that there are some people who are nearer to Allah Ta'ala than other peoples. These are the friends of Allah Ta'ala and in Islamic terminology they are called AWLIYA-ALLAH and Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) reserves special treatment for them.
Imam Bukhari (rahmatullah alaihi) narrates that the Most Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala alayhi wa Sallam) said that Allah Ta'ala says, "My servant comes nearer to me by nafl worships upto this that I begin to love him and when I love him I become his ear by which he listens and I become his eyes by which he sees. (Saheeh al-Bukhari) Imam Muslim in his Saheeh and other scholars in their books narrate that the Most Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala alayhi wa Sallam) says :
"When Allah Almighty loves a person so, he calls Jabrail (alaihi as-salaam) and says that '' O Jabrail I love my so and so servant, and you also love him. Hence Jabrail (alaihis salaam) also loves him. Then Jabrail (alaihis salaam) announces in the skies that Allah Ta'ala loves his servant than all of the dwellers of skies love him. Then he is made beloved amongst the dwellers of the earth".

An excellent thread! Al-hamdolillah, brother Jamil. The Prophet (Sallall Allahu ta'ala Aalihi wasalllam) center for molding Human Beings. Allah Almighty sent down His prophets to guide human beings to recognize themselves and attain the knowledge of Almighty Allah. Our Beloved Prophet (Sallall Allah ta'la Alaihu Wasallam) is the seal of the Prophets. He Introduced such a system, such a pattern of life that will enjoy undiminished and abiding popularity. It will keep guiding to the right path until the Last day. No Prophet will come now but the work of the Prophets will be carried by virtuous men of Allah Almighty. The Wali-e-Allah. The message of the Prophet (Sallal Allah ta'ala alaihi wasallam) is propagated to human beings by the friends of Allah Almighty. The Awliyah -e-Allah!

Just sitting in the company of pious men has so much barkat. A beautiful thread brother Jamil. It is written in 'As-Safinat al-Iraqiyya' by Muhammad ibn Iraq, that Muhammad ibn Hussein AL-Balji saw Rasullah(Sallall Allahu ta'ala alaihi wasalllam) in his dream and asked him: "What is most beneficial?". the Beloved Prophet (Sallall Allahu ta'ala alaihi wasallam) replied, "being in the audience of a wali among the Awliya of Allah."Shah al-Karmani said, "There is no ibaada more valuable than loving Awliya," Abu uthman Khairi said: " He who finds the Suhba of awliya finds the way to approach Allahu Ta'ala".

All the Awliya Allah belong to the Ahl as-Sunnah wal Jama’at, and anyone belonging to any other sect cannot be Awliya because they have beliefs contrary to the teachings of Sayyadina Rasoolallah (Salla Allahu ta'ala Alayhi wa Sallam). The following narration explains the status of the Awliya:
Hadrat Umar (Radi Allahu ta'ala Anhu) said:
“I heard the Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala Alayhi wa Sallam) saying that there will be certain worshippers of Allah who will not be Prophets, nor martyrs, but the Prophets and martyrs will envy them on the Day of Judgement.”
The Companions then asked, “O Prophet of Allah, who are these people?”
Then the Most Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala Alayhi wa Sallam) explained to them the qualities of the Awliya. The Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala Alayhi wa Sallam) read to them the verse:
“Beware, verily on the friends of Allah, there is no fear, nor shall they grieve.” (Surah Yunus, Verse 62)

"What is most beneficial?". the Beloved Prophet (Sallall Allahu ta'ala alaihi wasallam) replied, "being in the audience of a wali among the Awliya of Allah."Shah al-Karmani said, "There is no ibaada more valuable than loving Awliya," Abu uthman Khairi said: " He who finds the Suhba of awliya finds the way to approach Allahu Ta'ala". Alhamdolilah! 'Allama Sa'eedi and 'Allama 'Abd al-Hakim Sharf Qadri write: "It is better that help is sought directly from Allah, most High, and through the waseela of the anbiya or awliya. If an individual seeks help from the anbiya or awliya by means of achieving help from Allah, most High, the person is not committing kufr." [Sharh Muslim, 'Allama Sa'idi, Nidaa-e-Ya Muhammad, page 30 by 'Allama Sharf Qadri] Shaykh al-'Alawi al-Maliki, the Mufti of Makka writes: "When we ask help from the anbiya and awliya, as a means, it is through their supplication (du'a) that they help us. Take for example the Day of Judgment when the umma will benefit from our Prophet, (May Allah bless him and grant him peace). This is called asking for help through the anbiya and awliya and likewise to ask them to make du'a for us can be called help or istishfah or tawasul. [Ziyarat of the Grave, page 213, by the mufti of Makka, 'Allama Shaykh Muhammad al-'Alawi al-Maliki al-Makki]
