Book Name:Tazkirah e Sayyidi Qutb e Madina Ma Zulhijjah Kay Fazail
How would be the spiritual guide when the disciple is like this?
Dear Islamic brothers! Surely, after observing the ability of a pupil the vast knowledge of his teacher can be learnt. Similarly, after observing the status of the disciple the status of his spiritual guide can be learnt. When Qutb-e-Madinah is the Qutb of Madinah Munawwarah, how high will be the status and rank of his spiritual guide, A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه before Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم? A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was a great saint and an Islamic scholar of his time. Now let’s listen to something about him for attaining its blessings.
Routine of A’la Hadrat!
He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه spent his entire life following Shari’ah. His personality was the reflection of Sunnahs in a real sense. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه did not used to laugh. At the time of yawning he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would press a finger between his teeth, making no sound. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه never spat facing Qiblah, nor did he ever stretch his blessed legs towards Qiblah. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would offer five-time Salah in the Masjid with Jama’at. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would offer mandatory (Fard) Salah wearing ‘Imamah. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would avoid the use of iron pen. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would use Miswak and have oil on his blessed head.
(Faizan A’la Hadrat, pp. 114)
He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would use the right hand in taking and giving anything. If the person who stretched his left hand for taking something from him, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would instantly stop stretching his blessed hand and say: Take it from the right hand as Satan takes from the left hand. (Faizan A’la Hadrat, pp. 111)
He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would respect Masajid a lot; he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would always enter a Masjid with his right foot first, whereas when exiting a Masjid he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه first of all would put his left foot on the upper part of the shoe and wore the right shoe in the right foot and then the left shoe in the left foot (so that he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه can act upon the Sunnah.)
One day, A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه unexpectedly got a bit late from Fajr Salah, the Salah-offering persons were looking at his home over and over again that
