Kashf is not within the control of man, it is not a voluntary action, rather it is completely under the control and order of Allah Ta’ala. The example of it is similar to when Allah Ta’ala sent the fragrance of Hazrat Yusuf’s (
) qamees (shirt) from Egypt to his father Hazrat Ya’qub (
) in Canaan. However, when it was not the will of Allah Ta’ala, then even when Hazrat Yusuf (
) was cast into the well of Canaan by his brothers, Hazrat Ya’qub (
) was unaware of it. If kashf was within the control of Hazrat Ya’qub (
) then why did he not know that his son was cast into the well, whereas he was able to smell the fragrance of Hazrat Yusuf (
) all the way from Egypt? Thus, we come to know that kashf is only within the control of Allah Ta’ala. We should correct our belief regarding this matter.
