Sawm in my company.’ I preferred to open my Sawm in the blessed court of the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.

(Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah Bin Salam رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ stated that after this [conversation], I departed from there) and on the exact same day, Ameer-ul-Mu`mineen Sayyiduna ‘Usman-e-Ghani رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ was martyred by the rebels.

‘Allamah Jalaluddin Suyuti Shaafi’i رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has narrated that, ‘According to what ‘Allamah Ibn-e-Baatees رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه said, the incident of beholding the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم did not take place in Sayyiduna ‘Usman-e-Ghani’s dream; rather it took place while he was awake.’

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                            صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
