62 Noble Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in the world. I certainly know that all the words of praise and glorification described by Allah about me in fact are actually a tribute to the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, because I am his slave and from his lamp of prophethood and I possess nothing independent of him. On this basis, it is my strong belief that if someone after the Holy Prophet sa claims to independent prophethood and relationship with God independent of the spiritual beneficence of the Holy Prophet sa , then he is rejected and forsaken. Almighty Allah has put His eternal seal on the fact that nobody can enter the gate by which Allah is found without following the Holy Prophet sa. (Al-Hakam 31st May 1902)
