Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani Explains Vision of Allah in Form of a Youth!

The Sufi Shaikh, and originator of the Qadiriyah Silsilah, Abdul Qadir al-Jilani (Rahmatullah alaih), apparently affirmed the narrations of the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) having a vision of Allah in the form of a youth!

 
ولعل المراد من قول النبي صلى الله عليه واله وسلم :
(
رأيت ربي على صورة شاب أمرد ) هو طفل المعاني ويتجلى الرب في هذه الصورة في مرآة الروح بلا واسطة بين المتجلي و المتحلى له وإلا فالحق منزه عن الصورة والمادة وخواص الأجسام
I saw my Lord in the form of a youth...perhaps the meaning of this saying of the Prophet (Sallallaahu alayhi wa ala aalihi wasallam) is that he saw Him in the form of a child, and that Allah manifested His glory
upon a mirror spirit. Otherwise, Allah is free from the particularities of form, matter, and body...”
