Explanation: O’ imperfect seeker! You could not reach the level of (Meaning: Death before dying) due to the love of the material world and fear of losing it, whereas in this death lies the eternal life. You will achieve this death and union with Allah when Sultan-ul-Azkar Hoo is invoked by your entire entity and your self is annihilated in the Divine Essence and becomes its exact manifestation. This level is beyond proximity as for proximity there are needed two existences and here there is no duality but the Oneness. The invocation of Hoo keeps the lover of Allah restless, burns him in the fire of His Ishq and neither at night nor in the day he is relieved.
Explanation: This couplet mentions the extreme level of Faqr which is Fana Fi Hoo61. Arif invokes the Ism-e-Allah Zaat Hoo, annihilates in Hoo and becomes Hoo. This is the station beyond time and space where there exists no Islam or infidelity, neither is there any station or destination nor life or death. To achieve this station one does not need to go far beyond, as it is nearer than the jugular vein. There remains no duality when one annihilates in the Divine Essence and the Divine Essence annihilates in oneâ€&#x;s existence. 61
