Book Name:Ashabe Khaf Ka Waqiya
I accepted his invitation. I immediately travelled with a 3-day Sunnah-Inspiring Madani Qafilah. In the company of the lovers of the beloved Rasool, I listened to speeches from the booklets published by Maktaba-tul-Madinah, the publishing department of Dawat-e-Islami. By the blessings of the Madani Qafilah, a compulsive gambler and drinker like me who did not use to offer any Salah not only started offering Salah but was also inspired to do Sada-e-Madinah (i.e. to wake up Muslims for Salat-ul-Fajr). I also have the privilege of inviting others to travel with Madani Qafilahs. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! As a result of my individual efforts, 30 Islamic brothers have so far travelled with Madani Qafilahs. I am now a Muazzin in a Masjid and busy making efforts for Madani activities.
Blessings of Nisbat [i.e. getting associated with someone]
Dear Islamic brothers! What great blessings a person attains because of the Nisbat: The dog of Ashab-e-Kahf has attained dignity due to its Nisbat with the righteous people of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Remember! Nisbat is a great reality. Due to the Nisbat, even unimportant and worthless things become precious.

If they had no special relation or connection [i.e. Nisbat], they would have remained unimportant and worthless, or rather they would have died out long time ago.
In the Holy Quran, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has sworn by the blessed life of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and the city, Makkah that has Nisbat with the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. When the pious wives of the Beloved Rasool were blessed with his Nisbat, they were called the mothers of the true believers. When the dust of Madinah attained the Nisbat with the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, it was called the healing dust. The Nisbat with the Beloved
