- This Prophetic Tradition proves that Prophet Mohammad appointed Maula Ali to share the esoteric knowledge.
- The Chishti Sufi Order traces its roots directly to Maula Ali.
- Had Maula Ali not transferred the spiritual knowledge to others, then there would not have been the great personalities like Imam Hussain, Imam Hassan, Imam Zain ul Abideen, Imam Jafar Sadiq and others.

Younus AlGohar explains the difference between a Qawwali and a Sama.
Main points:
⁃ A Qawwali is technically a Sama as it is sung with melody, but it originated from the Chishti Sufi Order which traces its roots to Ali. They would sing the saying of Ali and call it Qoul-e-Ali which evolved into Qawwali. A schema was made for Qawwalis stating that there should be a harmonium, a tabla and a chorus too.
⁃ In the past, it was only with the Spiritual Mediator's permission that people were allowed to become Qawwalists. Their hearts and Lower Selves had to be enlightened. When they sang, love sat in peoples’ hearts.
⁃ Fakirs and novice seekers of the Sufi path are advised not to listen to the Sama or Qawwalis. This is because they may mistake the emotions they feel as a result of the music as being their own, genuine, love for God.
⁃ Nevetheless, Qawwalis are allowed in Islam. It is the Prophets’ names being sung in music, so music is also allowed. If the music promoted indecency and immorality, it would not be allowed.

What happens to the soul after we die? Younus AlGohar explains in light of his extensive spiritual knowledge.
Summary:
- The Malik ul Maut extracts the main soul of anyone who dies. The procedure is the same whether one has an enlightened heart or not.
- People will die according to the time God has chosen for them. It is never difficult for the Malik ul Maut to take out someone's soul.
- The Torment of the Grave is for the Nafs (Lower Self), not the soul. God showers his wrath upon the graves of some people - this is to protect those buried around them. God's wrath ensures that the Devil does not come to kidnap that Nafs.
- After the demise, the main soul will be taken to either Illiyin or Sijjiyin, which are 'teasers' for paradise and hell respectively. Their ultimate fate will be decided on the Day of Judgment. Someone in possession of Dhikr-e-Qalb (The Heart Activation) will be placed in Illiyin; all those who are unenlightened will be placed in Sijiyin.
'On that Day, neither your sons nor your wealth shall benefit you. Only he shall be successful who brings with him a Qalb-e-Saleem (Secured Heart).' - Koran 26:88-89
- As God states in Koran 100:10, after weighing a Zakir-e-Qalbi's deeds and actions, the subtleties of the breast shall be examined. God will ask to see the Spiritual Heart - and when he sees the love of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), HDE Gohar Shahi and God therein, God will send that person to paradise without any further questions.
