"...and before them is a barrier until the day they are raised."- Quran


Lighter than air, the wind, shiny dark green leaves of trees were moving by the force of the wind. The muddy ground didn't cause any dirt on him. The note was kept beside him, and the moon was illuminating him.

He lifted his burden, placed the beloved cap over the glossy hirsute hair, and blended in to snatch the folded note from the ground to unfold. Illiteracy dominated his persona as he blinked his eyes with an unmindful sight. Stepping out of the dense forest, a Sufi saint graced his appearance, accompanied by a wise woman.

Dhu'l-nun was dreadful, they assured him and asked, "How do you die?" Dhu'l-nun said, "No, I am not Death, I am confused, Ugh," tearing his hair in pain. The saint recited a verse to ease the pain, "And with every hardship comes ease."

Later on, when the pain evaporates, Dhu'l-nun expresses every delineation of the story. The Sufi saint enlightened his state regarding the realm, the macrocosm of spiritual life, and reprimand life. 'The forest of terror, the tears of the wrongdoers, the spirituality of the wise, and the omnipresence of the bodyless soul, this describe the palatinate of Barzakh."

Dhu'l-nun looked up at the blanket of ether, which was bedecked with iridescent constellations; the wise woman said, 'This Barzakh is still beneath some evils [Satan], be careful of them.' Dhu'l-nun came up with numerous questions; the Saint and Wise lady said, 'Every question has an answer but needs to find out.'

When the wise people turned back to complete their ordinance till the day of Judgement [Qaya'ma], Dhu'l-nun halted them showed the note and asked, 'What has been written on it?' The saint took and read out loud, 'Hey, the angel of paradise. I need help as I am captivated by the evil of eodun'Ziba.- بةشت [Bahisht].'

'eodun'Ziba' Dhu'l-nun creased his eyebrows; the wise woman said in a motivational tone, 'It's mean, 'Dark: the Beauty' It's a palace of non-death evil the Grandfather of the Ghost Afraah.'

'What? Who? How? I mean, what is the concept?' The saint said, 'You need to find out.' And they disappeared into the wind. Dhu'l-nun moved deeper into the Townlet of Barzakh; he saw a lot of souls were silent, tensed and disturbed as they were repentance their wrong deeds; he saw a Palace pinned down on the hill.

He was perpetually missing his beloved companions, Lubwa, Kha and Ha. He was asked to passing soul about the track which halted on the threshold of the Palace.

Again, the Great souls appeared, and they said, 'It's not tough; all you need is to remember all that route from which you catapulted here' he directed his question, 'But how?' The lady said, 'As Sufism states, when our body sleeps then our soul visits Barzakh. But our soul can't communicate with another dead soul as it refrained from the corporeal being.

You need a bloodstain from the world that belongs to your loved one. This blood would help you to culminate the 'eodun'Ziba' Would you do this?' Dhu'l-nun said while explaining, 'Yes, because all my childhood was spent hearing that Afraah and Bahisht gulped my parents, but how someone can communicate with me?'

'Just close your eyes and step into the realm of meditation, and when they sleep, their soul will visit you' he reunited his upper eyelash with the lower one and sank into it, while both Wise souls became contemplative upon hearing the death of Dhu'l-nun's parents. Dhu'l-nun saw Lubwa; she was tranquilly staring at him like a normal cat; he went to her ['Still in meditation state'] and implored, 'Dear, how you people are? Please go and bring some blood, of your or Kha or Ha. Lubwa [yelled].' disappeared.

Stepped out of state and asked, 'How will she bring to me and how I end eodun'Ziba and how I saw Lubwa?' The saint elaborated, 'The person to whom you saw will bring the blood through hue their mouth with blood and they kiss your forehead. Might your Lubwa sleep in the physical world?

All you need to end the ghost eodun'Ziba is to place the crown on your head, but remember you only end eodun'Ziba, not his astronomical army.

This realm is for only human beings, not for Ghosts or Angels or evil. Eodun'Ziba penetrated with his power.'

As Dhu'l-nun closed their eyes, he saw Lubwa; he went and once again implored his will and explained to them how she could possess a helper to him. While Lubwa is in the physical world, she wakes up from her sleep and is worn out by finding Dhu'l-nun; she says, 'Twice the dream strike, might patron need blood?' She looked up, bit her hirsute tail, and went to sleep again.

He went into a Dhu'l-nun meditation state and kissed his forehead head; she was wordless as she was not permitted by the Sovereignty to speak in the Barzakh. Dhu'l-nun closed their eyes and gathered all the routes through which he went to the Parrot; he straight-headed toward the Palace eodun'Ziba; he was re-arranging the disorganized tales and concepts.

When he halted at the threshold of eodun'Ziba, he saw numerous barricades patrolling the threshold and they were silent and in agony. He felt an unmindful state dominating his mind structure but he saw a hand waving through the crosspiece.

He climbed up on the wall, and one of the patrolling barricades saw him. He fell off the wall inside the palace; the barricades passed by the wall as if it were air, but when Dhu'l-nun stepped into the palace, the fragrance of Muskh pierced him, the tranquillity gyrated and he realized that the barricades weren't able to find him as they sight were restricted in the Eodun'Ziba Palace.
