which include the divine attribute Rafiq --- O! The Protector, O! The
Mighty, O! The-Friend [ Ya Hafiz, Ya Aziz , Ya Rafiq ] --- was taught

3= People continue getting benefit from this divine attribute The-
Friend (Rafiq)... But there are people with purity of heart who focus
on their Most High Friend instead of this world....Among them the best
example was of Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him
and all pious). The time when his soul was departing from this world
he called onto Allah with words - The Most Highest Friend ( Rafiq-e-
Aala).....He is described as the-mercy-for-all-people ( 21:108). He
commanded to be kind to the parents, the weak and the servants.
