"If you are perplexed in your affairs, seek help from those in the graves."

SUFI WISDOM

. One of the last great thinkers in Islam, Shah Waliullah, the great Muhadith of Delhi, (ad. 1077/1166) says[1]:

“When a human being passes away no relation is left between his soul and the world of matter. The souls return to their origin, become like angels, and like them, give inspiration and help to men. They help in the dissemination and strengthening of Allah ‘s religion. They rush to help those who work for this path. It has been witnessed that they come to help in groups”
