that we also try to improve our manners. Shaykh-e-Tareeqat, Ameer-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـه seeks help from the court of Beloved and Blessed Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.
مِرے اَخلاق اچھے ہوں مِرے سب کام اچھے ہوں
بنا دو مجھ کو تم پابندِ سُنّت یا رسولَ الله
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Best example of the manners of the Beloved Rasool
Sayyiduna Zayd Bin Sa’nah رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ once bought some dates from the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم before he accepted Islam (he was a Jewish scholar at that time). There were still a few days left for it to be delivered to him when he came to Rasoolullah صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and demanded him in a very angry and bitter tone.

He asked Sayyiduna ‘Umar رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ if he’d recognized that he was Zayd Bin Sa’nah, the noted scholar of the Jews, and
