زمانہ بھر نے زمانہ بھر میں بہت تَجسُّس کیا و لیکن

مِلا نہ کوئی اِمام تم سا امامِ اعظم ابُو حنیفہ

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Summary of Bayan

Dear Islamic brothers! Today we had had the privilege of listening to the Bayan about the piety of Imam-e-A’zam Sayyiduna Nu’man Bin Saabit رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was considered to be an Imam by virtue of his learning and knowledge, similarly he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه had attained a very high status in regards to his worshipping, spiritual exercises and piety.

§  A non-Muslim attained the privilege of embracing Islam by virtue of the great piety and good manners of Imam-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه.

§  Upon the saying of an Islamic saint, Imam-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه left his business and occupied himself in gaining Islamic knowledge, thus attaining a very high status.

§  One remarkable instance of his piety is that he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه did not eat meat for 7 years, presuming that the meat could have been from the stolen goat of Kufa.

§  He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was a great reciter of the Holy Quran; he had such a great passion for the recitation of the Holy Quran that he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه recited the Holy Quran from beginning to end 7 thousand times at the place where he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه passed away.

§  He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would remain so distant from wealth, that caliph Mansoor wanted to give him 10,000 dirhams, but he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه did not accept them.
