By the Late Bashir Ahmad Orchard

There are two realms of phenomena in operation which embrace dreams, visions, sounds from nowhere, and so on. They are the realms of:

1. Psychic Phenomena;

2. Spiritual Phenomena.

This personal treatise is devoted only to a brief study of psychic phenomena; and the principal design of the writer is to lay bare certain physical laws which should not be confused with spiritual laws. Visions, startling dreams, voices from space and other phenomenal manifestations are everyday experiences which can all be explained scientifically. Each experience should be examined with reserve and not hastily accepted and proclaimed as a sign from heaven. Two men may hear a voice in the still of the night. One may be listening to a revelation from on High; the other may be listening to a telepathic communication. Phenomenal experience must be studied in the light of caution otherwise irresponsible and uninitiated people in spiritual matters will not hesitate to regard them as Divine manifestations.

The glory of Islam

Islam is the most dynamic religion in the world because it is based on the pure Word of God. The Holy Prophet Muhammad(sa) was by far the greatest of all the prophets. He was bathed in the effulgence of Divine Light and drank deeply from the fountain-head of revelation. Upon no other prophet was bestowed such an abundance of Divine grace as was bestowed upon him. God spoke to him as a father speaks to his son. Every word of the Holy Qur’an is the genuine and pure verbal revelation of the Master of the Universe. It is a perfect Book and there is no doubt about it. None can successfully combat its Divine Power for it is the Word of God in the literal sense.

Thousands upon thousands of Muslims have been, in one form or another, the recipients of Divine Revelations. The evidence is irrefutable. However, spiritual phenomena is not the subject of this treatise which is concerned primarily with psychic phenomena; so let us focus the spotlight onthe subject in hand.

Dreams

In a dream, a man sees himself climbing a snow-capped mountain and in desperation he clings on to the icy crags; but alas, his hold gives way and he finds himself falling into a yawning abyss. He awaits the fateful moment when life will be battered out of his broken body upon the rocks below; but before the worst happens, he awakens to feel a blast of chilly air blowing into his room through the open window which he had forgotten to close before he slept.
