Types of souls and their
description
We start with explaining its types and its description generally then in details, so we say and guidance is only by Allah:
At the very beginning, the soul which is responsible for this body is not one soul, they are various souls according to the needs of this body of man created by Allah to appear in this universe.
Allah created it so as to push man to get its needs and what it naturally tends to, it pushes him to its needs nothing else, each soul Allah created in man is useful for him in one direction if it follows Sharia of Allah and is contented by the Sunna of the prophet in what is suitable for man in this life. If man left this Sharia to its nature and doesn’t limit it to the orders of Sharia, it will release its nature, seduce itself, mislead others, fabricate excuses, overcome limits and breach the scale of the best stature that prevents it from doing harm to this body in this life and the hereafter. It assumes it works for man's benefits and contents him by its deeds and that it works for him and his utility, but in fact it leads him by its corruption to its and his ruin.
So a Muslim should always fight it to return to its awareness and keep to the orders of Sharia, so he gets its benefits and avoids its harm and to stop its unjust control of the body, so it is only controlled by Allah and His apostle, so it carries out his matters according to Sharia, so man becomes useful and get uses, balanced with the universe around him, be ready for descending lights and going back to his origin before he came to this life.
The righteous people set up a general matter man can concentrate on in dealing with the soul, chastening it and fighting it, it is opposing it, whenever it orders something; man should do the opposite, as it was said:
"Disagree with the soul and Satan and disobey them, and accuse them if they advise you."
I.e. even if it advises you, you should accuse it, why? Because it only tends, calls and advises what agree with its desires and wishes, it isn’t contented by the little that is useful to it according to Sharia, so you should always disagree with it, so Imam Abul-Aza'em used to awaken those people of their souls and says to them:
"Come on and wake up Oh you who want to be connected, let delay and laziness away from you."
The first soul we start talking about is the inanimate soul: It requests man to laziness, stillness, inaction and solidity, it is the most dangerous soul for the people of the way to Allah because it stops man's action and whispers to him: "You are ok, you perform obligatory prayers and also non obligatory, what Allah wants from you after that?" It never lets man even if he is promoted but changes its method, at each degree it has different tricks and strange artifices to stop man from working hard in the way of Allah.
The second soul is that which is responsible for nourishment of the body, it makes you feel hunger or satiation; it arranges growth in different cells and organs and also substituting all the cells in the human body, it is called the vegetal soul or the nourishing soul.
The soul that tends to desires like marriage, position, residence, vehicle and other desires that control man to construct life and societies, we call it generally, the desire soul, it is divided into two souls; beastly soul and Satanic soul.
The first type related to the third kind of souls; it is the beastly soul that concerns bodily desires like marriage, clothing, residence and vehicle, the second type is the fourth soul, it concerns psychological desires like loving fame, elevation and domination, it is called Satanic soul, it is the leader of abstract desires.
The fifth soul is the predatory soul; it appears at times of anger and pushes man to conquer, domination, beat, power and argument, it is called the predatory soul because it causes man to behave like beasts of prey (animals) when they are angry, he kicks like a donkey, butts like a bull, beat by hands like a lion or spits like a snake, all this is called beasts, this is from the predatory soul.
The sixth soul is the angelic soul that is similar to angels, it tends to obedience, following the right path, guidance, mutual love, friendly relation, brotherhood and cooperation, it is called the angelic soul that shows man like an angel.
Allah created it in man to prevail love, kindness, mercy, peace and rapport, and to enable man to subjugate his body to the authority of spirit, and to tend to higher conditions when he is righteous, and then he can subdue other souls so that they obey him by decreasing lower needs and self wishes so that man can authorize the orders of spirit then he is promoted and lessens the needs of this life.
If Allah grants man and subdued his soul to the angelic soul, He breaths in him from His spirit by a breath, this is a specialty, here it is called the divine soul, they are chosen slaves, this is the seventh soul. So, the biggest problem is the souls within you.
As I said, I don’t have only one soul, but they are seven souls, an inanimate soul, a vegetal soul, a beastly soul, a Satanic soul, a predatory soul, an angelic soul and a divine soul, Allah created each one for a certain aim, Allah created in each one its tendencies, whispers, obsessions, ideas, diseases and plagues, at the same time He revealed in the noble Sharia what reform it, cure it and chasten it.
