Re: Who was Mansoor ?
i read about mansoor back in pakistan..for those who don't know about mansoor-al-halaj, he reached a level of spiritualism when he said ''annal haq" meaning i'm haq.. he was told to repent but he didn't.. he was killed but the drops of his blood said "anal haq". he was thrown into a river but the bubbles coming up said "annal haq". this is wrong as shariah doesn't allow it.. so we can't blame the people who killed him because they were just doing their duty and plus they hadn't reached his level of spiritualism.
mansoor halaj had advanced spiritually and after shariat he found tariqat, haqeeqat and then maghrifat.. whatever he said weren't his words.. As Allah S.W.T says about people who reach that level of spiritualism **"jo mere zikr ke zariye mere qareeb aa jate hain, tou main unn ka ZABAN ban jata hoon jis ke zariye woh bolte hain, main unn ka aankh ban jata hoon jis ke zariye woh dekhte hain aur unn ka kaan ban jata hoon jis ke zariye woh sunte hai." **I DON"T REMEMBER THE SURAH AND AYAH BUT I LEAVE THIS WORK UPON THOSE WHO R INTERESTED..
