Abstract
Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai, the great mystic poet, thinker and pious
man has enlightened the relation of man with Almighty Allah . Man has
yearns to get close of Lord through sacrifice and devotion. He wants to get
awareness through people, who are fully aware of reality.
Shah Abdul Latif considers that five times prayers and fasting are
Divine Commands, a God fearing man must follow these commands, but the
main purpose of life is to seek love of Almighty Allah and man must peep into
himself to know Almighty Allah, and it comes from poetry of this chapter ‘Sur
Aasa’ Man must have love for his Lord.
Shah Abdul Latif expresses his views in “Sur Asa” that Almighty Allah is omnipotent. He is omnipresent and amnipresent. He is very close to
man, and man can feel his presence. Since Almighty Allah is the most merciful and kind, man should not forget such kind and merciful Master.
Shah emphasizes this point that man should keep himself away from
evil and vicious deeds and keep his soul clean and pure, to entrance
spirituality.
According to Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai secret of success is hidden in
piety and man can achieve success in life hereafter by adopting piety, which
means to lead life according to Divine commands.
According to Shah Latif, the central point of Islam is oneness of God
and it is for man that he should concentrate on Almighty Allah for his
aspirations, wishes and hope. Shah conveys the message through the poetry of
Sur Aasa that, “man should build his Character and moral values based on
golden principles of Islam.”
