Our ultimate goal is to know Allah the Exalted in this world and to be near Him, in eternal bliss, in the next. In this highly encouraging reflection, Shaykh Yahya Rhodus discusses the next trait of Futuwwa (spiritual chivalry) mentioned in al-Sulami’s book, Kitab al-Futuwwa: seek knowledge of Allah through Our knowledge. He discusses the ranks of the righteous and the type of knowledge about Allah that each of them can obtain. And even if we cannot obtain those ranks, Shaykh Yahya explains that through the Bounty of Allah, we will not be denied our aspirations, even if it is on the way to our grave.
