The Inseparability of Karamah and the Wilayah of Allah

The questioner:
This questioner says: Does it necessarily follow that anyone who has a karamah, even a small one, is one of the awliya (close friends of Allah)?
The Shaykh:
If it is established that it is a karamah, this indicates that he is one of the awliya (close friends of Allah). A karamah does not occur except through the hand of a wali (close friend of Allah) among the awliya (close friends of Allah), but not everything is a karamah.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, O possessor of karamah.
The Shaykh:
It is the thing that is extraordinary, this is the karamah, yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
