It was not possible for me to receive this blessing if I had not followed the path of my master, the pride of the prophets, the glorious Muhammad Mu st af a sa. So whatever I received, I only received it through following him. I know this from factual and complete knowledge that no human being can reach God without following this Prophet sa.
