King of JinnS King of JinnS
It is the statement of Bashir bin Mahfooz that once my daughter Fatima was on the house roof when all of a sudden she disappeared. I became worried and presented the problem to the King of Baghdad Huzoor Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Paak (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu). He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) told me to go to KARKH and to sit in a deserted place during the night and to form a fort around myself. Think about me and say BISMILLAH. During the night many groups of Jinn will pass by you, their faces will be very strange but do not get scared. At the time of SEHRI the KING OF JINNS will come to you and will ask you about your requirement. Say to him that Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) has sent me from Baghdad and I want you to search for my daughter.
Following the orders of Huzoor Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) I went to KARKH and formed a fort around myself in a deserted place and waited. During the silence of the night horrifying Jinnaat kept on passing my fort. The faces of the Jinnaat were so horrifying that I could not bear to look at them. At the time of sehri the KING OF JINNS came riding on a horse surrounded by a crowd of Jinns. From outside the fort he asked what I wanted. I said that Huzoor Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) has sent me to you. As soon as he heard this, he got down from the horse and sat on the ground. The other Jinns also sat outside the fort. I told him the incident of the disappearance of my daughter. He announced amongst all the Jinns, "Who has taken the girl?" Within moments the Jinnaat caught a Chinese Jinn and presented him as the culprit. The KING OF JINNS asked him, "Why did you kidnap the girl from the city of the Qutub (Highest Cadre in Spiritual Pivot) of this time?" Whilst shivering he said, "Your Highness! I fell in love with her upon seeing her." The King ordered the Chinese Jinn to be beheaded and returned my beloved daughter back to me. Upon thanking the KING OF JINNS I said "Masha-Allah (az'zawajal)! You are a great lover of Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Paak (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu)." Upon hearing this he said "I SWEAR UPON ALLAH (az'zawajal)! WHEN HUZOOR GHAUS-E-PAAK (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) LOOKS TOWARDS US, ALL THE JINNAAT BEGIN TREMBLING. WHEN ALLAH (az'zawajal) NOMINATES A QUTUB OF THAT TIME THEN ALL THE JINNS AND HUMANS ARE ORDERED TO FOLLOW HIM."
The spouted jug turned towards the Qibla
Once a group of Saints (Rahim-hu-mullah) from Jilan Shareef visited the blessed presence of Huzoor Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu). They found that the spouted jug was not in the direction of the Qibla so drew the attention of Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) to this. He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) looked at his servant in a wrathful way and not bearing this look; the servant fell to the ground and trembled to death. Huzoor Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) looked towards the spouted jug and it automatically turned and faced the Qibla.
(Bahja-tul-Israr)
Keep the spouted jug facing the Qibla
Oh lovers of the King of Baghdad (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu)! Indeed the highest status of love that we can have is to follow each and every action of our beloved with an open heart; therefore, if possible, we should always keep the spout of the jug facing the Qibla. Huzoor Muhaddis-e-Azam Pakistan Hazrat'e Moulana Sardar Ahmad Sahib (rehmatullahi ta'ala alay) use to keep their shoes facing the Qibla as well as the spout of the jug. Alhamdu-Lillah (az'zawajal) SAG-E-MADINA (ghufiya anhu) follows these Auliya-e-Karam (rehmatullahi ta'ala alay) by keeping the spout of the jug and the shoes facing the Qibla, but it is the wish of SAG-E-MADINA that everything faces the Qibla.
Freedom from the punishment of the grave
A distressed young man once came to Huzoor Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) and said, "Huzoor! I saw my late father in my dream last night and they were saying "Oh son! I am entangled in the punishment of the grave, go to Sayyiduna Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) and request them to do dua for me."" After listening to this, the King of Baghdad (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) enquired, "Did your late father ever pass by my Madrassa?" He replied yes. Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) became silent. The young man went away and came back the next day looking extremely happy and said "Oh Murshid! Last night my late father came in my dream wearing green clothes and he was really happy. He said "Oh son! By the blessing of Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) I have been from the punishment and in exchange have been given these green clothes. My dear son! You should always remain in their presence."" After listening to this, Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) said, "My Lord (az'zawajal) has promised me that punishment will be reduced of that Muslim who passes by your Madrassa."

Screams of a dead body
Once some people came to the presence of Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) and requested, Your Highness! There are sounds of screams of a dead person coming from a grave in the 'Baab-ul-Azj' graveyard. Huzoor! Please bestow some mercy on the unfortunate so that his punishment is abolished. Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) asked, did he receive caliphate from me? The people replied we don't know. He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) asked, did he ever attend my gatherings? People said they did not know. He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) asked, did he ever eat my food? People again said they did not know. He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) asked, did he ever perform Namaz behind me? The people gave the same answer. He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) lowered His blessed head and signs of anger and prestige were seen on His face. After sometime He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) said, "the angels have just told me that he had visited you and he had a firm belief in you, therefore Allah (az'zawajal) bestowed mercy upon him". Alhamdu-Lillah (az'zawajal) the sounds that were coming out of his grave stopped.

What greatness of Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu)
Someone narrated an incident, which took place in Kutyaana (India), the ancestral village of Sag-e-Madina (ghufiya anhu), that a person used to live there who was a great lover of Ghaus-e-Paak (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu). He used to celebrate Ghyarveen Shareef. One other quality which was present in him was that he showed a great deal of respect to Sayyids. He used to be so kind and caring towards young Sayyids that he used to life them up and carry them around and would buy sweets for them. On his death a sheet was placed on the body. People came to grieve when suddenly the lover removed the sheet and sat upright. People got scared and started running. He cried out, don't be scared, just listen to me! When people came closer he said, "The thing is that just now my Murshid, Al-Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) came. He kicked me and said "Being my mureed you died without repenting! Get up and repent". Therefore, the soul re-entered my body so that I could repent." After saying this, the lover asked for forgiveness of his sins and read the Kalima-e-Paak. Suddenly, his head went on one side and he died.
Congratulation to the lovers and mureed of Huzoor Ghaus-e-Paak (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) because the King of Baghdad (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) said: "My mureed no matter how sinful he is, will not die until the time he does not repent".
(Al-akhbaar-ul-akhyaar)
Hearts are in the fist
Hazrat'e Sayyiduna Umar bin Bazzaaz (rehmatullahi ta'ala alay) stated that once on a Friday I was going towards Mosque along with Huzoor Ghaus-e-Paak (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu). A thought came in my heart that it is strange that whenever I go to the Mosque on Friday with my Murshid, people gather around either to say salaam or to shake hands and it becomes difficult to pass through them but today no one is even looking. As soon as this thought came in my heart, Huzoor Ghaus-e-Paak (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) looked towards me and smiled and suddenly people started leaping quickly to shake hands with the Lord of Baghdad (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu). There were so many people that there was a huge crowd between me and my merciful Murshid (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu). I thought in my heart that it was much better before. As soon as this thought came in my heart He (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) said: "O UMAR! YOU WERE THE ONE WHO WANTED THE CROWD, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE ARE IN MY FIST, IF I WANT I CAN PULL THEIR HEARTS TOWARDS ME AND IF I WANT I CAN PUSH THEM AWAY FROM ME".
(Zubda-tul-Aasaar)
Oh Ghous (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu) help
"THE ONE WHO CRIES OUT FOR MY HELP DURING SOME PROBLEM THE PROBLEM GETS SOLVED, THE ONE WHO CALLS OUT MY NAME IN ANY HARDSHIP THAT HARDSHIP GETS DISMISSED, THE ONE WHO USED ME AS A SOURCE TO ASK ALLAH (az'zawajal) FOR SOME NEED IT WILL BE FUFILLED. THE PERSON WHO PRAYS TWO RAK'AT OF NAFL AND IN EACH RAK'AT AFTER SURAH FATIHA RECITIES SURAH IKHLAS ELEVEN TIMES, AFTER SAYING SALAAM SENDS DUROOD-O-SALAAM ON THE KING OF MADINA (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa aalihi wa'sallam) AND THEN WALKS A DISTANCE OF ELEVEN STEPS TOWARDS BAGHDAD SHAREEF AND CALLS OUT MY NAME AND PRESENTS HIS NEED, INSHA-ALLAH (az'zawajal) THAT NEED WILL BE FULFILLED".
(Bahja-tul-Israr)
My Dear Islamic Brothers! It is possible that in someone's mind a thought may arise that we should only ask Allah (az'zawajal) for help and no one else because when Allah (az'zawajal) is the One who helps then why should we ask anyone else for help? The answer to this is that this is the way Shaitaan makes an unknown number of people go astray. When Allah (az'zawajal) has not refrained from asking for help from someone else then how can someone get the right of saying that don't ask for help from anyone but Allah (az'zawajal)? Look in the Holy Qur'an, where Allah (az'zawajal) has in various verses allowed asking for help from someone else. Even though being the Omnipotent in every way, He (az'zawajal) has asked for help from His beings. Therefore it is stated:
Translation Kanz-ul-Imaan:
If you will help the religion of Allah, Allah will help you.
(Part-26, Sura: Muhammad)
Hazrat'e Sayyiduna Isa Rooh-hullah (ala nabiyina wa alay his'salaatu was'salaam) while asking for help from His disciples states:
Translation Kanz-ul-Imaan:
Isa (alay his'salaam) son of Maryam (radi Allahu anha) has said to his disciples, who may help me being towards Allah (az'zawajal)? The disciples said, we are the helpers of the religion of Allah (az'zawajal)".
(Part-28 Sura: Al-Saff)
When Hazrat'e Sayyiduna Musa Kalee mullah (ala nabiyina wa alay his'salaatu was'salaam) was ordered to go to Fir'aun for preaching, He asked for the help of a human being and requested to Allah (az'zawajal):
Translation from Kanz-ul-Imaan:
And make a minister for me from my family (He) May brother Haroon. Strengthen my loin by him.
(Part-16 Verses-29 to 31)
Allah (az'zawajal) has stated in another place:
Translation from Kanz-ul-Imaan:
Then undoubtedly, Allah (az'zawajal) is his helper, and Jibrael (lay his'salaam) and the righteous believers and after that the angels are his helpers.
(Part-28 Sura: Al-Tahrim)
My Dear Islamic Brothers! Did you see? The Holy Qur'an very openly, in clear words, announces that Allah (az'zawajal) is the Sustainer, but by the grace of Allah (az'zawajal) even Jibrael-Amin (alay his'salaam) and the dear ones of Allah (az'zawajal) (the Prophets (alayhe mus'salaam) and the Saints (rahimahu-mullah)) and even the angels are the ones who help. Now Insha-Allah (az'zawajal) this satanic thought that no one can help except for Allah (az'zawajal), will be demolished from its roots. The interesting thing is that the ones who migrated to Madina-e-Munawwarah from Makkaa-e-Mukkaramah are called Refugee (Muhajir) and the ones who helped them are called Ansaar and every sensible person knows that the meaning of the word Ansaar is the helper.
Now maybe Shaitaan might put this evil thought in the heart that it is alright to ask for help from those who are alive but after their death you should not ask them for help. If you carefully study the following verse and the topic after it then Insha-Allah (az'zawajal) this satanic thought will be uprooted from its roots. It is stated:
Translation Kanz-ul-Imaan:
And say not those who are killed in the path of Allah as dead; but they are alive yes, you are unaware.
(Part-2 Sura: Al-Baqara)
It is proved by the Holy Qur'an that the ones martyred are alive. Now if these people are accepted as being alive who were killed by an iron sword in the path of Allah (az'zawajal), then what are you going to say about the Prophets (alayhe mus'salaam) and about the Leader of the Prophets Muhammad-e-Mustafa (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa'sallam)? It is stated in ROO-HUL-BAYAN that those people who died by the sword of the love of Allah (az'zawajal) are also included in this (meaning even they are alive like the ones martyred). Anyway, the Prophets (alayhe mus'salaam) and the Saints (rahimahu-mullah) are alive and we don't ask for help from the dead but from the ones alive and by the grace of Allah (az'zawajal) we accept them as the ones who fulfil the needs of the needy and the ones who help in the troubled times. Indeed, without Allah (az'zawajal)'s neither bestowal no Prophet or Saint can neither give anything as small as the smallest thing to anyone nor can they provide any sort of help. Sayyiduna Imam-e-Azam Abu Hanifa has, while requesting for help from the Holy Prophet (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa'sallam), requested in QASEEDA-E-NOMAN:
'O, the One better than humans and jinn's, and the One who is the treasure of the Bounty of Allah (az'zawajal) please also give me from what Allah (az'zawajal) has bestowed on You (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa'sallam) and how Allah (az'zawajal) has satisfied you.
You (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa'sallam) also make me satisfied. I am a candidate of Your shower of generosity. There is no one for Abu Hanifa in the entire creation except you (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa'sallam).
Sayyiduna Imam Shara fud-Din Busairi has requested for help from the Lord of Madina (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa'sallam) in the famous QASEEDA-E-BURDA by requesting:
The One better than all creations, there is no one of mine except for you.
The One whose shelter I can take in the time of trouble
Imda-dullah Muhajir Makki (rehmatullahi ta'ala alay) has requested in NAALA-E-IMDAD:
I am sleeping day and night on the pillow of sins.
Wake me up from the dream of ignorance Ya RasoolAllah (sallallahu ta'ala alaihi wa'sallam).
Hazrat'e-Shah Wali-ullah Muhaddis Dehlvi (rehmatullahi ta'ala alay) has written the following about the grand supremacy of Ghaus-e-Paak (radi Allahu ta'ala anhu):
That is Sheikh Mohi-ud-din Abdul Qadir Jilani, therefore says that even in His Grave he has authority like the ones alive.
