Abyat-e-Bahoo


Translation

How would living know the plight of deceased, one knows who dies Hoo

There is no food or water in greaves, household expense is in need Hoo

Initial grief of separation from kith and kin, secondly punishment of the greave indeed Hoo

Excellent fate is of the one ‘Bahoo’ within life who dies Hoo

 

Commentary by M. A. Khan

Those who have not tasted the state of death before dying the one who dies knows what death is. In greaves, one is in need of benevolence of all the dhikr, reflection, contemplation of Divine name of Allah and other pious virtuous. There is grief of separation from kith and kin and second worry of punishment of the greave.

Excellent fate is of those who have killed their base self and reached the state of subsistence.
