Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 16 The Noble Prophet, Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Him, was Innocent and Khatamul-Anbiya I truly believe that the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is the innocent Prophet upon whom all the excellences of prophethood ended [in culmination]. Every kind of perfection and rank ended in him. He was bestowed the complete and comprehensive Book after which no other shariah will come till the Day of Resurrection. It is the Word that bears the seal of God Almighty which had descended upon the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, with thousands of angels and under their protection. Should there be any [Divine] inspiration, vision, or revelation, so long as they are not in conformity with it, they cannot be deemed from Allah. Of course, if any inspiration or revelation is in con- currence with it and also has Signs in its support, I would be the first of all to accept it. It is not within my power to dispute or debate it even in the least. Three Types of Visions and Revelations Revelations, visions, or dreams are of three types. First are those which are from God. These descend upon those who have achieved perfect purification of the soul. This is achieved after many a [spiritual] death and self-negation. Such a person is totally divorced from the passions of the ego and such death befalls him which incinerates all his inner impuri- ties and through which he draws near to God and distant from Satan; for, the one who is near is the very one whose voice is heard.
