Al – Ifaadaat Al- Ihsaaniyyah Vol 2
” My dear elders and friends! Allāh ta‛ālā conveyed many pieces of advice in the Qur’ān. Sometimes He Himself advises us, sometimes it is done through the Prophets ‛alayhimus salām and at other times He conveys the pieces of advice of His Auliyā’. From among them is the advice of Hadrat Luqmān who was not a Prophet but a Walī and one who used to receive inspiration from Allāh ta‛ālā. He advised his son and Allāh ta‛ālā related it in the Qur’ān. Allāh ta‛ālā caused him to give an advice which a father gives to his son and which he can give. The advice really appealed to Allāh ta‛ālā so He included it in the Qur’ān. Obviously, they will be extremely important pieces of advice. Imagine Allāh ta‛ālā quoting the words of advice of a Walī in His Book, and that too in a Book which surpasses all books as regards its authenticity. It will obviously be extremely important and phenomenal for it to be included in His Book. ”
