Recycling of souls.
There are unlimited laws of nature, amongst them one crucial law is law of recycling of matter in universe. Does this law applies for recycling of souls?
Nice and interesting way of looking at it!
According to the Farman of MHI, the soul is created and is given a physical form. Hence our bodies are expressions of our souls. Our bodies are constantly being recycled or renewed, hence our souls are recycled continuosly.
There is a hadith which states: Die before you die. Hence at every moment we die to our own selves to become something new or are reborn.
Our souls are of couse recycled in bigger ways as per Mowlana Rumi:
I died as mineral and became a plant,
I died as plant and rose to animal,
I died as animal and I was man.
Why should I fear?
When was I less by dying?
Yet once more I shall die as man,
To soar with angels blest;
But even from angelhood I must pass on ...
Another great mystic, Mansur al-Hallaj, famous for his formulation, Anal Haq (I am the truth: Aham Brahmo Asmi) wrote:
Like the herbage
I have sprung up many a time
On the banks of flowing rivers.
For a hundred thousand years
I have lived and worked
In every sort of body.

Km, thanks for your reply.
Let us look at this question in some other way.
Bodies can gain and loose weight, so the change in body will affect the soul too, hence soul will loose the weight or gain the weight or soul will stay weightless.
Soul is composed of billions of highly charged entities which live in the cells. Body cells keep destroying and new cells are taking place. Can we assume that body cell loss is affecting the particles in soul system, means soul is also capable of loosing and gaining its entities.
From matter and minerals we can make millions of things of different sizes, dimensions and forms etc. Since soul is related to body, therefore its size and dimensions can be changed.

MHI talks about practising your faith and cleansing of the soul. Hence there is a notion of removing impurities which can be both physical and mental/spiritual.junglikhan4 wrote:Let us look at this question in some other way.

Also we should not confuse the 'size' or worth of the soul in terms of physical size. A mountain has a huge size but the worth of it's soul could be significant, on the other hand, a tiny saint could have the worth of God - drop merging into the Ocean.
In a Farman MHI says that a person who does not have faith is not worth the dust on the road.

Km, I agree that a person who does not have faith is not worth the dust on the road. But there are persons who do not believe in God are still doing well and are better off and are doing charity work!
Let me ask you other question. What is difference in Noor and Soul?

Khan Saab,
As per my thinking noor is a Devine power from Allah, which is only bestowed to a member of Ahl e bait family , the holders of Noor should be sinless person, pak pakiza. It should be appointed by previous noor holder and should be a direct decedents of PROPHET MOHAMMED family. Ismailis calls such kind person as an their imam.
The soul is eternal, its also comes from Allah same like Noor but everybody has soul but not the Noor and this is the main different between soul and noor.
i.e every human being does have soul but every human being does not have Noor!
This is my basic thoughts I will love to know what Kbhai, Nuseri and Admin thinking in this.

AH-How do you resolve this then that people who do not have the Faith of Islam, they have their own faiths, may be followers of holy books or otherwise, they have made great progress. How is it, if correct faith and true faith was the foundation.
MHI-I would question what you interpret as , or the elements you put in the word "progress". There are many aspects of the industrialised world as it is called today which I do not wish for the future of the Islamic world, nor for my own children. I think there are imbalances there, which of course exist in other societies but the imbalance is there, which I don't think are healthy, which I would wish changed, which I would hope Islamic society in the future will address and find different forms, perhaps better forms, of solutions. So, I don't think one can equate "progress" exclusively with what is happening in the industrialised world now, very far from it.
http://www.ismaili.net/intervue/i851112a.html
In my opinion soul and noor are the same. In his Memoirs MSMS says:
"Islamic doctrine goes further than the other great religions, for it proclaims the presence of the soul, perhaps minute but nevertheless existing in an embryonic state, in all existence in matter, in animals, trees, and space itself. Every individual, every molecule, every atom has its own spiritual relationship with the All-Powerful Soul of God. But men and women, being more highly developed, are immensely more advanced than the infinite number of other beings known to us."
MSMS also says in his Memoirs that we are all endowed with the spark of the spirit and that we should ensure that it grows and does not diminish. Hence it is a matter of degree.
Soul grows from individual soul to universal soul. The spark grows into complete noor. Both the same.

There is a Farman which states: "The most important thing is that through prayer and through attendance in all your religious duties, you should have that Light (Noor) in your heart which will give you happiness."agakhani wrote:Kbhai,
You are saying that Noor and soul are same! Ok, let me ask you one simple question : Where is "Noor" in human bodies?
There is a verse of Sloko:
Dil manhe deval pujie
Ane dil man he dev duaar
Dil man he aape sanhiya vase
And dil man he aape deedar

I agree with first paragraph of your posting that Imam is noor u Allah and he is pure. I do not agree with your assertion that, " every human being does have soul but does not have noor." I want to remind you the ayat e noor, which says," Allahu nooru samawti wal ardh." hence every particle in universe contains noor of Allah.
Ak, What is the real defination of Noor, because the meaning light is mentioned allegorically.

Kbhai and Khan Saab,
What you consider Ismaili current Imam? a holder of Noor or holder of soul?
Why we are not telling him as a holder of soul? If soul and noor are same in your both"s opinion! then we should tell Ismaili imam as A holder of soul not holder of noor!
Bravo! I have also soul and soul is Noor also as per your thinking so that I am also imam or kbhai or our old freind , just recemtly changed name can be consider him self as an imam because we all have NOOR! Enjoy every one because we all are imam!
Kbhai be honest with you some time your comments puts me in laughing situation.

Good example Admin, but it is still hard to believe for me that soul and noor both are same.
About Noor:
If we thinking as per Ismaili perceptive then Noor is divine power and it only bestowed a specific person . Not all human beings have it but only few ( Ismaili Imams) have it.
You can not consider some one's intelligence as a Noor.
About soul:-
All living creature has soul, it may be a Trees, animals, mountains/mineral, human being but they all can not be an Imams who can guide us as our imam is doing!! there are 4 'KHANS" as per pirs who has souls; it is beautifully explained in our ginanic literature.

Perhaps the ginan Prem Patan explains the difference between Noor (Raja Mansoudh) and individual Soul (Radya de Rani)
The Soul is accompanie in its journey towards the Light. When the soul does its best but still can not reach the destination, the Noor which is guiding us takes the soul on its shouder and bring the soul to the "Dev jo Dwar" the door of the Light of the Imam.

I asked for definition of noor, but so far no explanation.
Let me give my opinion. Noor is the binding forceof matter and creation in universe. It is the foundation of building blocks of universe. Without noor the universe will fall apart. Noor is that particle which scientists are looking for and call it heavenly particle.
LAHU KHURSHEED KA TAPKEY
GAR ZAREY KA DIL CHEEREY.
Ak, every one can not be Imam, it is a God given authority and only chosen ones are bestowed with authority and responsibility.
By the way, there is a sufi saying,
GAR TU KHUDA DANI KHUDAI
WA GAR TU GADA DANI GADAI.

Well, the simple definition of the word 'NOOR" is light but that is not true
In my opinion the noor's definition as a light is not enough, its not reach the top level of the word Noor and if we accept it then it is injustice to "NOOR".
My definition of the word "Noor" is there is no definition of the word 'Noor"
There may be many other definitions as well from different persons! but nobodies can claims that their definition is 100% true for the word of "NOOR".
At one point I agree with your given definition above on Noor, to me it seems quiet right but it is possible that may be other peoples may not accepts it!! first of all it is very hard to understand the matter and its forces, tiny particles e.t.c!! peoples stilll not reach that far even in this modern and advance time!!
There are many questions still remained unanswered
-Who controlling this universe? where is that energy? does that energy also calls as Allah?
-If cosmic energy and nature plays important rolls in our lives and whole universe then what is roll of Allah?
your definition may be right for some educated persons but may be not for others! one thing is true that scientists still has not reach that decision that noor is a small part (particle)of some unknown individual!!
So far scientist have agreed and started to believe that there are some "super power" in whole universe who is commanding and controlling every thing!! but they still has not given any definition to that controlling force!! what would you tell that unknown force Noor, Allah, cosmic energy, light or Nature!!??
Now back to the general definition of noor -light Does light controlling whole universe? your answer will be no, and that is what Ismaili pirs has wrote in their ginans that
'TARO BHED KOI NA JANE" and I thinks nobody will understand him 100% in future too.

Yaa Ali Madad,
According to my understanding every Human( not every living organism ) have Noor , this Noor is Known as Spirit in our Body and that Spirit/ Noor is it self DIVINE( IMAM ).
Human body is abode of Soul and Spirit both.
Soul is the force by which we are living and are able to move,feel etc or soul is living force. Every living organism have Soul.
But Noor or Spirit is itself noor e illahi . When Mowla makes the firman to do ibadat and come closer to Noor and then be one with that Noor is actually for our soul to come closer spirit in our body.
As mowla Ali says, " jis khud ko pehchana, us ne goya rab ko pehchana ".
Everything written above is my understanding and interpretation.

Did you really didn't know about it...because i had read about this from your previous account posts.. You always wrote human have Athmaa and jeev and both are different.
Ok..I elaborate it..
Jeev in body is soul
Athma is spirit
Spirit controls soul...spirit lives in intellegence while soul lives in heart.
After death a persons soul is accountable for his or her deeds, but spirit is it self noor e illahi and is not accountable.

The English word spirit comes from Latin "spiritus" meaning breath. The word soul is also used in meaning of breath. The notions of a person's spirit and soul often overlap. In Quran the words used are NAFS AND RUH.
It is interesting to note that in Quran the word RUH is use in singular form and not in plural form ARWAH.
Thomas Edison (1847-1931), who had 1093 patents in his name, invented most important things like light bulb, phonograph, movie camera etc, was asked a question on his 80th birthday, I quote," Do you believe man has a soul." His reply was," No one understands that man is not a unit of life.
He is as dead as granite. The unit of life is composed of a swarms of billions of highly charged entities which live in the cells. I believe that when a man dies, this swarm deserts the body and goes out into space, but keeps on and enters another cycle of life and is immortal."

Interesting....and yes he is right. That highly charged entities is Soul but not Ruh. Dont forget our Pir tell us in Ginan that after a person death his or her soul get reward according to their deeds. Many souls attain salvation, many became angels , many get rebirth in human and in other organism forms.junglikhan4 wrote:Reply.ismaili103 wrote:Yaa Ali Madad Agakhani bhai,agakhani wrote:Interesting that human being has soul and spirit!

Yes at some extent soul is immortal but, Imam can destroy anyone souls. Don't forget Imam is also destroyer ( Mahesh ) according to Ginanic literature.
On the other hand Spirit is it self Noor e illahi. Their is nothing like Good and Bad attached with Spirit, Spirit is beyond everything.
What Quran says is " spirit is AMAR of your God"...not exact words.

quote ismaili103,
Interesting....and yes he is right. That highly charged entities is Soul but not Ruh. Dont forget our Pir tell us in Ginan that after a person death his or her soul get reward according to their deeds. Many souls attain salvation, many became angels , many get rebirth in human and in other organism forms.
Yes at some extent soul is immortal but, Imam can destroy anyone souls. Don't forget Imam is also destroyer ( Mahesh ) according to Ginanic literature.
On the other hand Spirit is it self Noor e illahi. Their is nothing like Good and Bad attached with Spirit, Spirit is beyond everything.
What Quran says is " spirit is AMAR of your God"...not exact words.

First you and Mr. Ak decide spirit and soul are same or different entities.
By the way a muslim, an ismaili or follower of any religion knows about good deeds/bad deeds and reward or punishment. Here discussion is about spirit/soul or nafs and ruh.
You wrote,"at some extent soul is immortal but Imam can destroy it."
Let me quote a farman, HI said,"the only part of you which is eternal is your soul. Never forget this." So Imam is not going to destroy souls.
You wrote," there is nothing good or bad attached with spirit."
Let me quote MSMS's farman."always keep clean your ruh." Imam has used the word ruh and you have quoted Quran equating spirit with Amr, where as Quran has used the word" ar Ruh".

You mean spirit and soul are same, as you wrote spirit has many meanings and soul is one of them.
Nope, You misunderstand that, I never told they both are same!! Khan Saab.
And Yes! spirit has many meanings like fairy, angels, ghost, life, breath,vigor, courage and soul.
As per ginanic other religious literature.
JEEV & AATMA are different entities.
Spirit is eternal jeev doesn't
Jeev has feeling like sadness, happiness, pain and feeling e.t.c.
Soul doesn't have any feeling.
Animals and vegetables have also soul.

Imam made the farman and Imam is always true. But Imam uses the word Soul, like keep ur Soul clean. Imam never said Soul and Spirit are same..
Imam tell us time by time to keep ur deeds good to clean ur Soul. It doesnot mean soul cannot be destroy. Imam give you many chances by giving rebirth in ismailism, and if you cant fullfil your mission, Imam can destroy our soul. CREATOR CAN CREATE ANYTHING AS WELL AS DESTROY ANYTHING.
QURAN says, " Tumhari rooh tumhare rab ka hukum( amr) hai" . Not axact ayat.
Our Pirs have clearly tell us that human have Soul( jeev) and spirit( Rooh) and both are different.
Spirit is one who control us, including soul.
Soul is one by which we are ale to do actions.
