Commenting on the verse 25 of surah al-Mominoon,

ان ھو الا رجل بھ جنة

Hazrat Hakeem ul Ummat Mawlana Ashraf Ali Thanawi ra said:

“ِFrom this we come to know that such a state (hal) is very much praiseworthy (mehmood) that is considered by the nescient individuals (mahjoobeen) to be insanity. This is achieved by excellence of annihilation (fana). ”
