VERSE 12 OR “AYAT AHLUZ DHIKR”
In Surah Al Ambiyah, verse 7, the Holy Qur’an declares:
فَسْتَلُوا أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ) “O people! Ask the men of knowledge if you have no knowledge.”
Hadrat Sayyiduna Jaber bin Abdullah Radi Allahu ‘Anhu narrates that once Hadrat Sayyiduna ‘Ali Radi Allahu Anhu was asked, “Who are the Ahle Dhikr who have been mentioned that we should question?” He replied, “We are the people of Dhikr.” (As Sawaaiqu Al Muharriqah)
