Allah Walon Kay Ikhtiyarat

Book Name:Allah Walon Kay Ikhtiyarat

Crossed river without boat

It is stated in narrations that Sayyiduna Sa’d Bin Abi Waqas رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ was with some Muslim companions and they needed to cross the river Tigris         and they did not have boats at their disposal. Sayyiduna Sa’d Bin Abi Waqas رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ commanded the Muslims to walk into the river. He himself led the way while reciting the following Du’a:

(Translation: We seek help from Allah Almighty and rely only on Him. Allah Almighty is sufficient for us and how great He is Who mends our matters. And neither do we possess the power of refraining from sins nor do we have the power of performing righteousness, but from Allah Almighty, Who is the Greatest of all.)

People started walking on it without any hesitation while talking to each other. Horse riders rode over it on their horses, camel-riders on their camels, and those who were on foot walked over it on foot with their provisions the way caravans pass through the open fields. (Dalaail-un-Nubuwwah, Juz: 2, pp. 341-342, Raqm. 522; summarised)

Reign over the skies too

Dear Islamic sisters! We came to know that the righteous people of Allah Almighty can walk on water and air with the bestowed powers of Allah Almighty. Moreover, they are such dignified personalities that their Du’as are not rejected. When they raise their hands and supplicate for rain in the merciful court of Allah, Allah Almighty sends down a heavy rain due to the blessings of their Du’as which quenches the thirst of the thirsty ones and makes crops and gardens flourish.

Pouring down of rain of mercy

It is stated that once, it completely stopped raining in Sehwan Shareef         [Bab-ul-Islam Sindh, Pakistan] and its nearby vicinities, to the extent that no signs of any food were seen far and wide. Streams and wells dried out and
