Kitab Al Mawafiq Wal Mukhotoba

The book of Sufism which to understand it is rather heavy but very deep in discussing monotheism and kemakrifatan. The book whose original title is "Roo-aytullooh" (I have seen Allah) by Mustafa Mahmoud is taken from Al Mawaqif wal Mukhotobat - Imam An Nafri.

In his brief review, he explains how Ash-Syadzilly's opinion is regarding Ash Sheikh Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar An-Nafri, the author of the book "Almawaqif wal Mukhotobat", he said: "The book is not just any book, it is not easy, the difficulty is definitely difficult, because the content likens spiritual matters, it is elevated and it is impossible for someone to be able to explore other than "friends of taste" (dzauqiah) whose understanding and willingness are also high, it is impossible for the entire book to be understood except by a special person in his field ".

And in this case Abdul Hasan Asy-Syadzilly is eager to "lighten" and "oversimplify" the contents of the book, so that those who are able are willing to accept, can understand. And in this case he is willing to provide the "opening key" for anyone who longs for the realm of wisdom; unfortunately until the end of his life his good intentions had not yet been fulfilled.

In this book, it is also stated that Ibn Athaillah told a story: One day there was a meeting in Cairo at the house of Zaky As Sarrakh, in that meeting Asy Sheikh Abdul Hasan Asy-Syadzilly held a book "Almawaqif wal Mukhotobat" which he read in before Ibn Athaillah and Abdul Abbas Am Marsi ...

Based on the writings of Doctor Abdul Halim Mahmoud regarding the life of Asy-Syadzily (who had studied with Abdus Salam bin Masysy) it is clear that the book "Almawaqif wal Mukhotobat" by Asy-Syeikh Muhammad bin Abdul Jabbar An-Nafri which we translated and compiled in Indonesian with the title "Seeing Allah" has been known and known by Ibn Athaillah As-Iskandari the author of the book: Al Hikam "who is no stranger to us, that Abul Abbas Al-Marsi (Guru Ibn Athaillah) student of Abul Hasan Asy has also known. Syadzilly. In the book there are many similarities regarding the words "Allah said to me" and others similar to it. Hopefully Allah's pleasure and Mercy be upon him ...
