Book Name:Auliya-e-Kiram Ke Barkatain
تَختِ سِکَنْدَرِی پر وہ تُھوکتے نہیں ہیں بِسْتَر لگا ہُوا ہے جِن کا تِری گَلی میں
سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, have you heard the superior status of the sainthood of Sayyiduna Bahlol Daana رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه in the Divine court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! How elevated it was! If he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه had wished, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه could have accumulated plenty of treasure for himself and would have lived a comfortable and luxurious life. But may I be sacrificed for him! Despite having so much power he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه did not leave anything for himself, however, whoever he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه wanted, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would give a Heavenly palace out of magnificent Heavenly palaces from Paradise of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. From the abovementioned parable it has been understood that pious saints رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ attain the knowledge of Ghaib by the bestowal of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. When Haroon Rasheed asked about the reason for increasing the price of Heavenly palace, giving the news of Ghaib Sayyiduna Bahlol Daana رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه replied: Zubaida Khatoon did not come to me after seeing Paradise, whereas you have come to me after viewing Paradise. One Madani pearl from this parable is that it is not necessary for a pious saint to publicise himself, wear prominent Jubba (robe) and Dastar (Turban), have a long queue of devotees through which his sainthood may be recognized and he becomes famous, but rather pious saints of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ are found even among common bondmen. Therefore we should respect every righteous person because any one among them can be a hidden pious saint.
The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said: The inhabitants of Paradise are the ones who have dusty faces, scattered hair and wear old and torn clothes. They are not paid any attention. These are the people who are not given permission if they want to go to the kings; if they send a proposal of Nikah to women, they are refused. When they talk, they are not heard; their needs create panic in their hearts. These are Paradise-deserving people; if the Noor of anyone of them is distributed amongst all people on the Judgement Day, it will suffice all. (Shu’ab-ul-Iman, vol. 7, pp. 332, Hadees 10486)
At another place it is stated: If many scattered-hair people who are kicked out from homes vow to Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, He عَزَّوَجَلَّ fulfils it (Muslim, pp. 1083, Hadees 2622) Elaborating on the part of the Hadees, ‘many scattered-hair people who are kicked out of homes’ Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said: The
