*Najoomi Gadha*
Naseeruddin Tusi, who is commonly known as "Muhakkik Tusi" and is considered a proven scholar in logic and philosophy. Once, he went to visit a divine scholar. The attendees of the gathering showed him great respect, and people introduced him to the divine scholar as the most accomplished and knowledgeable person at the time.
The divine scholar inquired, "In which field does he have the most expertise?"
People said, "In the science of astrology."
Upon hearing this, the divine scholar was greatly disturbed and said, "I believe a white donkey is more expert in astrology than him."
Extremely upset by the divine scholar's statement, Naseeruddin Tusi got up and left for his home. Coincidentally, on this journey, he had to spend the night at a donkey owner's house. Naseeruddin Tusi set up his bed in the courtyard outside the house when suddenly the donkey owner said, "You should set up your bed inside the house because there is going to be a terrible rain soon."
Naseeruddin Tusi asked, "How do you know it's going to rain?"
The donkey owner replied, "Sir! On the night when my white donkey raises its tail towards the sky three times, it doesn't rain all night, and when it lowers its tail to the ground and wags it, my years of experience tell me that it will definitely rain heavily that night."
Sure enough, a heavy rain started shortly after, and there was a flood. Now Naseeruddin Tusi realized that the divine scholar was right in saying that a white donkey knows more astrology than Naseeruddin Tusi.

Conclusion:
The words that come out of the mouths of divine scholars are not meaningless. Whatever they say, they see in the light of their insight and express their observations. Therefore, one should attend the luminous gatherings of these elders and listen to their pure words very carefully.
If something seems beyond one's understanding, one should not rush to reject or deny it, nor should one be offended, but rather one should contemplate with complete calm and always keep in mind that:
What are the observations made by the servant in this world?
What do they say if your gaze is a sign?
One does not become a divine scholar simply by reading a few books. Knowledge is one thing, and having one's heart expanded with the light of knowledge and becoming a person of insight and vision is another. This is a divine favor.
Allah Almighty bestows His favor upon whomever He wills, and only he reaches the height of this rank and is honored with the esteemed title of divine scholar.
Dr. Iqbal has beautifully pointed out this point:
May God acquaint you with a storm
That there is no turbulence in the waves of your sea
You cannot be free from the book because you
Are a reader of the book but not the author of the book
