On the occasion of the Farewell Hajj, the beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  had his hair shaved, so I kept some strands of his blessed hair with me.”

The beloved Prophet  صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  asked me, مَا تَصْنَعُ بِہٰوُ لَا ءِ یَا خَالِدُ

“What will you do with these O Khālid?”

I replied, اَتَبَرَّکُ بِہَا یَا رَسُوْلَ اللہ وَاسْتَعِیْنُ بِہَا عَلَی الْقِتَالِ قِتَالَ اَعْدَائِیْ

“I will seek blessings from them and seek assistance through them in battle against my enemies.”

So, the beloved Prophet  صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  said, لَا تَزَالُ مَنْصُوْراً مَا دَامَتْ مَعَکَ

“You will remain victorious as long as they remain with you.”

Sayyidunā Khālid رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ stated: “Therefore, I placed them in the front portion of my hat. And I never ever met an army except that they were defeated through the blessings of the Messenger of Allah  صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم .”^[1]

One should try and gain the blessings of viewing them even if he has to wait for a lengthy time in a queue. Even if a person had to spend the entire wealth of this earth to gain a glimpse, it would be little. Some people who let their intellects run wild start to raise questions;
