Then read the book of mysticism Sheet Al Qusyairiyah, while the scholars were listening and talking to each other, "What do you read?", "From the chapter ar brochure?", "What they read chapter futuwwah?" "Or they read Hurriyah chapter? "" Or follow the beginner, read from the beginning? "
Books written by Imam Al Qushairi was read to the scholars, and they explain, while Sheikh Abu Hasan As Shadhili silent listening. Once finished explaining, the scholars were asked to Sheikh Abu Hasan to speak. Sheikh Abu Hasan was silent for a moment, then began to say, words are filled ruhaniyah elements that are not easily expressed, until Imam Izuddin bin Abdissalam cried, "Hear the words of this rare, which is close to the word of God!"

Narrated in the book Durar Al Asrar, where Sheikh Abu Hasan expressed, "It was on the evening of 8 Dhu al-Hijjah, I'm busy with the affairs of Muslims and matters of jihad. I have prayed for the Sultan and the Muslims. At the end of the night I saw a tent in the sky with a light on it. the inhabitants of the heavens raced toward the place while the world's population is busy with their own affairs ".
"Whose is it tent?" Ask Sheikh Abu Hasan. "That the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wasallam tent", they replied that there.

Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wasallam scholars invited to sit on the left while Sheikh Abu Hasan advanced to him. At the time of Sheikh Abu Hasan cry for sorrow thus rejoice. Sad because they thought the question of jihad while happy because he and the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wasallam close because of consanguinity.
The time of the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wasallam delivered to Sheikh Abu Hasan does not have to worry about the affairs of jihad, and God has given his blessings to the sultan. And he ordered that Sheikh Abu Hasan advise the sultan to not do wrong. After that Sheikh Abu Hasan said, "By Allah, we gain the victory!" And at that time he woke up.
