The Story of Baluqiya Who Surrounds the Universe looking for the Prophet Muhammad Part 2 (end)

 

Baluqiya continued on his way. Suddenly there was a very big angel. He said, 'There is no god except Allah and Muhammad the Messenger of Allah. 'Baluqiya said the greetings of love, the angel answered him. Baluqiya asked him about it, he replied, 'I am an angel in charge of the wind. I will not let go of the wind except with the permission of Allah. I hold the sea. If this had not been the case, surely everything on earth would have perished

 

Baluqiya left him, he continued his journey until he reached the mountain of Qaf. It turns out that he is made of green yakut. It travels the whole world. Because of the mountain's rays, the sky looked blue. Allah commissioned the handling of this mountain to an angel. When Allah is about to shake a part of the earth. He ordered the angel to move the layer connected from the hemisphere to the mountain of Qaf. If Allah wants to drown a village and its contents, then He allows the angel to cut the layer of the village from the earth.

 

Baluqiya asked the angel, 'What is behind this mountain?' He replied, 'Behind this mountain are 40,000 cities besides the cities of the world. The city is made of gold and silver. There is no day and night. Its inhabitants are angels who never tire of praising Allah. Baluqiya asked, 'What's behind those cities?' He replied, 'Behind him are 70,000 veils (barriers). Each hijab is about the size of the world. No one knows behind the veil, except Allah.

 

Baluqiya left the angel, he continued his journey until he came to a mountain. There were angels who looked like deer. Baluqiya greeted them, they replied back. Baluqiya asked them, 'Who are you?' They replied, 'We are some angels of Allah. Here we have worshiped Allah since we were created. ' Then Baluqiya asked them about the great mountain facing them, which shone light like the sun. They replied, 'It is a world mountain made of gold. All the gold metal on earth was sourced from it.

 

Baluqiya left them, he continued his journey until he came to a wide sea. There were two very large fish. He greeted them, and they replied back. Both of them asked Baluqiya, 'Who are you, O creatures of Allah?' He replied, 'I am Baluqiya, from the Children of Israel. I came in search of Muhammad, the seal of the prophets. Do you have anything I can eat? ' Because of God's occultation, they gave him bread. He ate the bread and afterwards was not hungry anymore.

 

Next, he came to a peninsula. There he saw a very large bird, beautiful in appearance and possessing something which could amaze the mind by its beauty. The bird is in a tree, under which is a dish on which is grilled fish. Baluqiya approached the bird, greeted him and asked, 'Who are you?' The bird replied, 'I am one of the angels who are in heaven. I was sent by Allah to send this dish to Adam and Hawwa when the two of them gathered at Mount Arafah. Both of them had eaten something from him. Then Allah told me to put the dish here and I stayed close to him until the Day of Judgment. He also ordered me to give something from him to the people who came here. ' So Baluqiya ate something from the dish, but the dish did not diminish in the slightest, it was just as it was. Baluqiya asked the bird about the dish. He replied, 'Surely the world's food will decrease and change if it is ignored. Meanwhile heaven's food will never decrease and change. 'Baluqiya asked,' Has anyone ever eaten this dish? ' He replied, Yes, indeed Khidhr Abdul 'Abbas, sometimes come here and eat this dish. After that he left again. ' hearing that Baluqiya decided to stay at the place to meet Khidhr, gathered with him and asked him various questions.

 

One day, when Baluqiya was sitting, suddenly Khidhr as came to him wearing white clothes. Baluqiya stood up to greet him and greeted him. Khidihr replied. Baluqiya said, 'O Abdul' Abbas, I have traveled in search of the Prophet of the last days until I finally came to this place. I stay here waiting for your arrival for you to tell me about it. 'Khidhr replied,' O Baluqiya, verily the prophet of the last days will not appear now, and you will not meet him now.

 

Hi Baluqiya, do you know how far it is between you and your mother? ' Baluqiya replied, 'Don't know.' Khidhr said, 'It is a distance of 50 years. Will you I put you in front of your mother? ' Baluqiya replied, 'Yes. 'Khidhr said,' Close your eyes!'. Baluqiya said, I closed my eyes, I didn't know anything except my mother was by my side. I opened my eyes, then I greeted my mother and told her, 'O my mother, who has brought me to you?' Mrs. Baluqiya replied, 'I saw a white bird that had put you here. Then he disappeared quickly. ' Baluqiya told all his stories to his mother. Then he went to the Children of Israel and greeted them, and they replied. They asked about his condition when he left. He told them and all the miracles he saw were recorded by them for forty years. They could not count the miracles he had seen. According to a narration, Baluqiya is a thousand years old. Wallahua'lam.
