A FEW WORDS FOR HIS EXCELLENCY

THE SULTAN UL ARIFEEN - THE SULTAN UL FAQAR HADHRAT sultan bahoo

MAY ALLAH SANCTIFY HIS SECRET

ABOUT THE FAMILY LINEAGE OF THE SULTAN UL ARIFEEN HADHRAT sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe

In the opening paragraphs of his many books, he gives his introduction in words like these “this book ‘Muhik ul Faqar’ is written by Faqeer Bahu (Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe), son of (Hadhrat) Bazaid Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe, surname A’waan, the resident of the suburbs of the Qala Shor Kot”. The Clan of ‘A’waan’ is the descendants of Hadhrat Qutub Shah Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe.

Family lineage of Hadhrat Qutub Shah Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe roots back to Emir ul Momineen Hadhrat Ali al Murtaza Bin Abi Taalib Karam Allah Wajhu through Hadhrat Ameer Zubair Bin Khazan. It is quoted that Emir ul Momineen Hadhrat Ali Al Murtaza Bin Abi Taalib Karam Allah Wajhu had eighteen sons: Sayyed Imam Hasan, Sayyed Imam Husain, Sayyed Mohsin, Ameer Abu Bakar, Ameer Umar, Ameer Usman, Ameen Ali, Ameer Sa’ad, Ameer Saeed, Ameer Taalib, Ameer Ibrahim, Ameer Aqeel, Ameer Zaid, Ameer Abbas, Ameer Talha, Ameer Abdullah, Ameer Zubair and Ameer Muhammad Hanfiya. In the book Fatawa Ghayasi, it has been mentioned that Maimna was the name of Zubair’s mother who was the progeny of Rustam (Champion) and ‘A’waan’ tribe are the descendants of Zubair. In the book Fatawa Ghayasi, the Family Lineage has been written like this:

Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe son of Hadhrat Sultan Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe son of Hadhrat Shaikh Sultan Fateh Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe son of Hadhrat Shaikh Allah Ditta son of Hadhrat Shaikh Muhammad Tameem son of Hadhrat Shaikh Muhammad Manaan son of Shaikh Moghla son of Shaikh Muhammad Paida son of Hadhrat Shaikh Muhammad Seghar son of Shaikh Muhammad Anoon son of Shaikh Muhammad Salaa son of Hadhrat Shaikh Muhammad Behari son of Hadhrat Muhammad Jimoon son of Shaikh Muhammad Hargan son of Shaikh Anwar Shah son of Shaikh Ameer Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Qutub Shah son of Hadhrat Amaan Shah son of Hadhrat Sultan Husain Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Firoz Shah son of Hadhrat Mahmood Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Fartak Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Nawab Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Duraab Shah son of Hadhrat Adhem Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Abeeq Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Sikandar Shah son of Hadhrat Shaikh Ahmad Shah son of Hadhrat Hijar Shah son of Hadhrat Ameer Zubair son of Emir ul Momineen Hadhrat Ali Al Murtaza Karam Allah Wajhu Bin Abi Taalib Bin Mutlib Bin Hashim Bin Abul Manaaf Bin Qasi Bin Kalaab Bin Ka’ab Bin Lawi Bin Ghalib Bin Fahar Bin Maalik Bin Nasar Bin Kanana Bin Hazeema Bin Madraka Bin Ilyas Bin Mazar Bin Nazar Bin Ma’ad Bin Adnan Bin Adnan Bin Ada Bin Adad Bin Hameeh Bin Hamal Bin Neet Bin Qaidar Bin Ismaeel Bin Ibrahim Bin Taarikh Bin Qaasir Bin Sharikh Bin Arghos Bin Faalikh Bin Shaalikh Bin Arfakhashad Bin Saam Bin Nooh Bin Yaro Bin Idrees Bin Ismaeel Bin Qeenaan Bin Anoosh Bin Shees Bin Adam Alaihe Salaam. [May Allah forgive for any spelling error in above names!]

There is no doubt in this that the A’waan people are the descendants of Hadhrat Ali al Murtaza Bin Abi Taalib Karram Allah Wajhu. Some noble traditions of Hashimi and Alvi are still found common in the general people of A’waan tribes in Pakistan like benevolence, bravery, modesty, faithfulness, honesty, trustfulness, firmness in promises, humanity, hospitability, charity and spending. They are ready to serve their guests with everything they have. All common and proper people of this nation remain below the threshold of rich persons as they all the time spend their wealth in the said activities and always remain under debts.

ABOUT THE PARENTS AND THE PLACE OF BIRTH OF THE SULTAN UL ARIFEEN HADHRAT sultan bahoo

Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe

Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe is the name of his respectful father and Hadhrat Bibi Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha is the name of his respectful mother. Their sacred tomb is situated in courtyard of the Masjid of Qureshi Family in Shorkot city now situated in the Province Punjab in Pakistan. There is another opinion regarding the location of his respected mother’s grave.

Some say that the graves of his respected parents are situated in the in courtyard of the Masjid of Qureshi Family in Shorkot whereas others say that the grave of his respected mother is situated in the graveyard of the respected Saadaat in Lutf Abad in the suburbs of Multan city. She died there and got a place of burial near the tombs of the respected Saadaat in that graveyard. It is said that in his Mukashifa of the Inwardly Mysteries, the sacred Spirit of his respected mother met him in that graveyard.

His respectful father was a virtuous, Master of Shariyat , Hafiz of the Holy Quran, Master of Issues pertaining to Fiqah, engaged in worldly relations and was the Royal representative in the area from the Sultanate of Delhi and the Malik Awaan of Kohistan. Since he had no son, he, for the sake of children, had to enter a new wedlock in late years of his age.

Since Hadhrat Bibi Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha was a pious lady and belonged to a noble family and has been his companion, therefore, the impact of her righteousness was very big on Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe and her Karamaat were revealed unto him.

Its result was this that the Love for Allah rose in his heart and he thought why had he wasted his precious time for nothing and it would not be manhood and parity that his wife is a friend of God Almighty and he has fallen in worldly pursuits. At last, the Beneficence of the First Day admonished him and he abnegated Dunya (World) for “therefore flee unto Allah” (51:50). Therefore, in order to pay off that which had bygone, he took tools of war and a mare called Soon Pari, left his domain and the world, and was lost from the eyes of the people.

Since he was a lord and a noble person and knew no other art and means of earning sustenance, therefore, finding no other option, he turned to Multan. His report of becoming lost had been recorded in the office of the Administrator of Multan and the City Gate. When he reached the Gate of Multan,

He was identified and was taken to the office of the Administrator of Multan. He hid the real state of affairs in enquiry. Administrator appointed him on rumination of two rupees. Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe accepted appointment with three conditions:

1. his home should be separate at a pure place
2. he will not accept anyone as his officer nor will be subordinate to anyone
3. he will not pay homage to anyone (that is, he will not bow and stoop before anyone)

His conditions were accepted and he became engaged in the Remembrance of Lord in recluse in a corner of a house in Multan and became a Wali and Favorite (and Accepted one) person of Allah’s Court in the end.

It was as has been said by Hadhrat Mahboob e Subhani, Qutab e Rabbani, Ghaus e Samadani Hadhrat Shaikh Muhyiddeen Sayyed Abdul Qadir Jelani (MAY ALLAH SANCTIFY HIS SECRET) that the Nearness and Union with Allah Almighty may come in hand in just one step: lifting the foot from World and setting it in the Nearness of Lord!

Thus, for that person, whom the Absolute Guide himself attracts towards Him without any Physical Source and Means through His Beneficence and Grace, why will he feel the need to Fight with inner-self and sit waiting! Wisdom has no wings on this course. Way to Allah is in the heart. This is the Beneficence of Lord granted to one whom him He wills.

This Course cannot be covered through physical efforts. Disconnection with the Outsiders and the enthusiasm with Lord make it easy to travel. Examples of Hadhrat Ibrahim Bin Adham Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe, Hadhrat Rabia Basri Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha and Hadhrat Fazeel Ayaz Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe are of those who reached near God in one-step and one breath.

Since, Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe was a lord and had Royal office; his sudden absence from his domain was a thing of great concern for everybody. His family members and servants started finding him.

Some months had passed in Multan that a dispute arose between the Raja of Marwat of Rohi Desert and the Administrator Ruler of Multan, which took the shape of a war and the Ruler of Multan attacked the Rohi Desert. Since Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe was not the subordinate of any officer, he decided to take part in war independently. He took his tools of warfare and set out to Marwat. He reached Marwat and was not barred to enter the court of Marwat by anybody thinking him to be a messenger.

He reached near Raja of Marwat and spoke aloud: O men! Beware! I have come to kill you. By the Order of Allah Almighty, he dominated all and beheaded the Raja and took his head and rode back his mare (Soon Pari) jumping a wall of the Fort by the Grace of Allah Almighty! He presented the head of Raja of Marwat to the Ruler of Multan whose army was still on its way to Marwat! He became so much famous that his appearance and his mare was on the tongue of every common and proper of the area.

When the people of his native land reached near Multan in their effort to find him, they heard this news of his marvelous gallantry and were happy that they had found him at last. News reached his previous home and his two brothers in law came Multan and met him and requested him to go back to his home.

He asked them to go back and ask your sister if she also wants to see me back. If so, then I will come back. When they asked Hadhrat Bibi Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha, she replied: that is a Secret of Lord. I feel I have son in my womb whose name is Bahu (Ba-Hoo) who will be a Born Friend of Allah and a Perfect Guide and Mentor. His birth will be in the domain of Chenab. This boy will forsake World. In his obedience, we are also obliged to abnegate the World and will have to live in the land of Chenab. So, take me to his father. Hence, she was taken to Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe.

Sultan of Delhi had ordered to search for Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe since he was lost for a long time from his Post. The Administrator of Multan was ordered by the King of Delhi to send him back to his native land so that he should take charge of his office but he refused to go back and rejected the Royal Office as he wanted to donate his remaining life for the worship of Lord remaining away of worldly engagements. Since it was a Muslim State, his request was accepted.

He started living in Shor Kot, which is situated in Par Gannah Multan, Punjab, Pakistan. Since Shor Kot was very holy Station as there are many graves of Martyrs and Saints, almost every next inhabitant there was Scholar, follower of Shariyat, and religious, one could offer the Prayers of Jummah and Eid. Moreover, land was allotted to him from the Court of the King Shah Jehaan for sustenance and livelihood. He and his respected wife settled there.

Hadhrat SULTAN UL ARIFEEN Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe says about his respectful mother:

Hundreds of bravos are for his respectful mother, who gave him the name Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe,
And Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe is the son of (Hadhrat) Bibi Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha and his heart has become marry with Hu,
Forgiveness of God and His Mercy be upon (Hadhrat) Bibi Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha,
O Lord! You had decorated her with uprightness and truth [as is her dear name ‘Raasti’].

Bayt e Bahu (Couplet of Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe)
My glorious mother Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha is on the truthfulness of the Deen,
That enriches my both eyes with the Divine Lights.

Bayt e Bahu (Couplet of Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe)
May Mercies of Allah be showered on my respectful mother Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha !
O Lord Almighty! You had certainly adorned Raasti Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaiha with uprightness.

Bahu’s Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe (respected) mother gave him the name Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe,
Because Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe all the time remains with Hu.

Faqeer Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe says that blood was shed from the eyes of his respectful mother through the above Way of the Zikr-e-Khafi (the Secret mode of the Remembrance of Lord). Such Remembrance is called the Hazoor-ul-Haq .

ABOUT THE CHILDHOOD, EARLY AGE AND BLESSED TOMB OF THE SULTAN UL ARIFEEN HADHRAT sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe

Be enlightened that Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe was a born Friend of Allah (Maadir Zaad Wali Allah). He was endowed with the Beneficence of the First Day and was raised with the Divine Light of Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam. Like Hadhrat Mahboob e Subhani, Qutab e Rabbani, Ghaus e Samadani Hadhrat Shaikh Muhyiddeen Sayyed Abdul Qadir Jelani (MAY ALLAH SANCTIFY HIS SECRET), he also never drink the milk of his respected mother during the Holy Ramadhan hours.

When he grew up, whenever he walked across the streets and bazars of the town, the Hindus, whoever saw his blessed face and bright forehead, started reciting Kalimah-e-Tayyeb (Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah/there is none worthy of worship except Allah; Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah) (Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam) involuntarily and the Kalimah-e-Shahadat Ash-hadu an Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Waḥdah La Sharika Lahu Wa Ash-hadu Anna Muḥammadan Abduhu Wa Rasuluhu (I bear witness that (there is) none deity of worship except Allah; One is He, no partner has He, and I bear witness that Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam is His Servant and Messenger) and converted to Islam.

Due to this Karamat , the Hindus went before his respected father in a group and humbly informed him that the maid of his son does not care and takes him outside any time without notice and Non Muslims are converting to Islam because whoever sees his blessed face, becomes Muslim. So a time should be set and announced in public so that people should be aware that Bahu is playing outside and they will not see his blessed face lest they should become all Muslims! He granted their request and agreed.

 The Hindus of the town, appointed servants to inform them in loud voice to announce that Hadhrat Bazaid Muhammad Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe is outside his house along with his blessed son or the son is in streets alone. When these servants used to herald for his presence outside the door of his house, the Hindus used to run inside their houses and shops!

The blessed Gaze (Look) of the SULTAN UL ARIFEEN Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe had such an Alchemy of the Spiritual Elixir that whoever came in the focus of his eye, became a Muslim! In his blessed books, he says: whoever sees my face, becomes Arif (Gnostic) and Wali-Allah (Friend of Allah).

Glory be to Allah Almighty! Such are the Miracles of Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam that his Ummat has so great persons with such a great spiritual effectiveness!

It is said that once, when SULTAN UL ARIFEEN Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe fell ill, his Seekers humbly requested permission to call a famous doctor of that time. He allowed them and when a Brahman doctor was contacted, he said that he feared if I would visit to see the patient, he will convert to Islam involuntarily. Therefore, please bring his urine instead. When the urine was taken there, the Brahman doctor embraced Islam even upon seeing that urine sample!

Once Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe was working in his crop field that a poverty-stricken person of Sayyed family came for help from this Great Saint Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe. When he saw him, he thought the Saint was himself looking very poor. What will he help me, he thought! He decided to go back without uttering a word.

Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe noticed his presence and called him back. He addressed him with his name although he had not met him before. This made the person so astonished and he became sure that he had found a Perfect Man of God Almighty. That Sayyed came near to him and very obediently requested him for help. He asked him to plough his field for some time until he returns.

He went aside and urinated. The piece of dry mud stone with which he had made his private part dry and pure (as is done in Istinja when water is not available), he took that stone with him and threw it in the field where that Sayyed was standing. All the lumps of mud there turned into gold. He ordered that needy person to pick that much gold that could fulfill his needs!

It should be noted well that Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe has never liked Karamaat to happen from the Perfect Arifeen because he strongly disliked Khud Faroshi (the display of the achievements of the self). In the said incident it appears as if he took this expedient to help the needy person who was not only a Sayyed but had traveled long distance to see him. It was also in conformity of the sacred Hadis that ‘Allah Almighty likes the Rich Faqeers’.

One day, Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe was traveling through Cholistan desert that he saw a person who was collecting dry wood for fire. He passed by him and after some time he returned to same route and halted at a distance. When his companions humbly asked him why he had stopped, it was replied by him that he is feeling as if a tomb of a Friend of Allah is in the way the Divine Light of which is touching the sky.

When they walked further, it was observed that that wood collector was lying there unconscious and his bundle of wood was scattered. He graciously sat near him and placed his blessed hand on his forehead. That person became conscious and said that ‘O Hadhrat! When you were passing nearby me, I had the opportunity to see your blessed face and what happened then, I know not!’ He smiled and graciously sent him back to the Lamakaan again.

Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe was the Master Knight Rider in Invoking Spirits on Graves (Dawat ). The action of Invoking Spirits on Graves is sometimes also done after mounting on the grave of a Friend of Allah. That is why Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe has remembered such person with the title of “Knight-Rider”. When the act of Inviting Spirits bears no success while just sitting by a grave, then the Aamil performs Dawat after riding over the grave due to which the Dead One becomes cooperative and offers cooperation.

Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe himself has executed such Invitation to Spirits. It has been written in the “Manaqib e Sultani” that Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe rode over the grave of Hadhrat Baha ud Din Zikriya Multani Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe and executed Dawat. Baha ud Din Zikriya Multani Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe came out of the grave and humbly asked if there was any order for him to follow.

Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe wished for a noble and chaste lady for marriage. As a result of that a girl of a Hindu Saahukaar came in his wedlock after embracing Islam. It has been written in the “Manaqib e Sultani” that Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe attained Perfection in Ultimate Divine Knowledge and he used to perform Dawat by riding over the graves of the Friends of Allah. Dawat is a unique feature and a naked powerful sword of the Sarwari-Qadiri Sufi Order .

Since Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe is a Murshid the Master of Hayaat (Life) as well as Master of Mamaat (Death), he blesses his Seekers with Guidance and Beneficence even today in dream, Muraqiba and even by physical presence.

History tells that Hadhrat Sayyed Usman Marwandi when mounted himself on the grave of Hadhrat La’al Shabaz Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe in Saiwan Shareef to perform the Amal of Dawat ul Qaboor, Hadhrat La’al Shabaz Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe did not like this and made him Disqualified for Spirituality and he lost his senses even. At that time, Hadhrat Sultan Ahmed Inwardly contacted Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe for help and he was generous enough that he not only restored the senses of Hadhrat Sayyed Usman Marwandi but also granted him Spiritual Assets and Powers sixty times more than he earlier had!

People also say that this is one of the living Wonders of his Tomb that thousands of people start weeping and crying upon seeing the Holy Grave of the SULTAN UL ARIFEEN Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe. Tears shed from their eyes without control. Oh my God! Condition of the writer of this article was same like this when I visited his sacred tomb for the first time in my life! One cannot control himself. May countless mercies and blessings of Allah be upon his sacred grave and the holy compound till the Day of Doom! Ameen!

Upon seeing the sacred grave, the Zike-e-Jehr (Remembrance in aloud) automatically starts on the tongues of many persons. Some become the Masters of Haal , Living-Hearted , Masters of effectiveness, Zaakir e Qalbi and Zaakir e Ruhi . This thing is witnessed even today which is beyond the scope of common understanding. It will, Insha Allah, continue till the Day of Resurrection. He, who has tested this, knows it!

Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah (Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam)

This is the Miracles of the Beneficence since the Day of the The Beginning. The Beneficence of Qadri Sarwari will flow till perpetuity.

May this Beneficence come to our share also! Ameen! Summ Ameen!

He has only remembered the Saints of Hujra Shah Muqeem with respect and love in his book titled Ganj ul Asraar.

THE EXCELLENCY OF THE SULTAN UL ARIFEEN HADHRAT sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe

As he grew up, the hidden occurrences of the mysteries and the absorptions of Lord also grew up! No time was left spare with him that he might get Knowledge-of-Outward (Physical Knowledge). It is said that his highness was so much strong follower of the Shariyat that he had even never missed a single Mustahib (Recommendatory acts of Worship and servitude) all over his life.

With so much nonstop Inwardly occurrences, Absorptions of Lord and the Divine Lights of the Essence, the demonstration of so high Istiqamat (steadfastness) his never missed even one Mustahib and showed complete obedience of the Sunnat of the Holy Prophet Hadhrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam in the Outward as well as the Inward! Istiqamat is the Great Miracle!

Why should it not be so as he was a mother Born Wali Allah endowed with such Steadfastness (and persistence) and capacity and endurance. His age was almost equal to the age of the Holy Prophet Hadhrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam.

Elders tell that when the SULTAN UL ARIFEEN Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe entered the age of maturity, one day he was standing in the outskirts of Shor Kot that suddenly a Master of Divine Light, the Master of Dignity and Impression appeared and held his hand and took him along with him.

He was afraid and shivered and asked ‘O Hadhrat, who are you?’ That person, first, applied his Spiritual Attention (Tawajuh ) on him and then replied: ‘Ali Ibne Abi Taalib (Karram Allah Wajhu)’! Then he humbly asked Hadhrat Ali Murtaza Karram Allah Wajhu: ‘where are you taking me Hadhrat?’ His highness Karram Allah Wajhu said: ‘As Instructed, I am taking you to the Blessed Court of his highness the Overlord of the Multiverse Hadhrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam.’

He was made to present before the Holy Prophet of Allah Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam in his blessed Assembly (Majlis ). Hadhrat Abu Bakar Siddique Radhi-ya-Allah Anhu, Hadhrat Umar Ibne Khataab Radhi-ya-Allah Anhu, Hadhrat Usman Ibne Affaan Radhi-ya-Allah Anhu and Hadhrat Ali Murtaza Karram Allah Wajhu all were present there along with the Ahl e Bait Alaihimus-Salaam in that Assembly.

Then, first, Hadhrat Abu Bakar Siddique Radhi-ya-Allah Anhu embraced with him and after giving him his Attention (Tawajuh ), he left. Then Hadhrat Umar Ibne Khataab Radhi-ya-Allah Anhu and Hadhrat Usman Ibne Affaan Radhi-ya-Allah Anhu embraced him and left the Assembly after applying their Attention on him. After their departure, there were left only the Ahl e Bait Alaihimus-Salaam in that Assembly.

Then, after extending his blessed hands towards Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe, the Holy Prophet Hadhrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam ordered: ‘hold my hand’ and he held his blessed hand and kissed it and after this his highness Initiated (Bai-at) him and issued him the Instruction and Directive.

He says:

[REF. RISALA E RUHI SHAREEF)
Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam has himself “Initiated (Bai-at)” me on his blessed hand,
And Hadhrat Mujtaba Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam [the progenitor of Hadhrat Hasan and Hadhrat Husain Alaihimus-Salaam] has declared me his son,
Permission was granted by Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam to [Faqeer] Bahu [Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe],
To deliver Instruction to mankind just for the sake of God,
I am, but, the dust of the feet of Hadhrat Hasan Alaihe Salaam and Hadhrat Husain Alaihe Salaam,
[Therefore] Ultimate Divine Knowledge has become my assemblage [that is, the Ultimate Divine Knowledge and Faqar have come to end on me].

When the Holy Prophet of Allah Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam issued him the first Instruction of the Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah (Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam), no Cover and barrier of the Degrees and Stations left intact before him. The Ummul Momineen Hadhrat Sayyeda Fatimah Zahra Alaihe Radhi-ya-Allahu Ta-aala Anha declared him her spiritual son.

He then kissed the blessed feet of the Hadhrat Sibtain al Sharifain Imamain al Sa’adain Hadhrat Hasan Alaihe Salaam and Hadhrat Husain Alaihe Salaam. After this he was given in the care of Hadhrat Pir Dastgeer, Mahboob e Subhani, Qutab e Rabbani, Ghaus e Samadani Hadhrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jelani (MAY ALLAH SANCTIFY HIS SECRET) for education and necessary instruction for his next Duties.

Since that day, the Divine Lights of Allah Almighty were illuminated on him like this that he would make thousands of persons united with God Almighty through a single Gaze and gesture of eye. Every hour, he was Drowned into the Observations of the Essence of Haq and the Vision of His Jamaal and Jalaal (Didaar ).

SHIFTING OF THE BLESSED COFFIN/CASKET OF THE SULTAN UL ARIFEEN HADHRAT sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe

His first Tomb was on the western bank of the River Chenab in Chokhandi in the center of Kila Qehargaan. Due to dominance of Jhanda Singh and Ganda Singh, his children had migrated to other sides. Only one Faqeer and some Near Ones lived in that sacred Tomb. Geological changes changed the Course of the River Chenab and it approached very near the Tomb. Graves of others were emptied and coffins were taken out to bury again at another suitable place.

When his grave was dug up, no coffin was there. It was shocking for his descendants who started weeping at this occasion. Since the River was approaching nearer day by day, it was expedient to take his blessed coffin to a suitable site. It was ordered by him to his devotees that he will be in his grave along with his coffin but only he would be allowed to touch his sacred coffin who will be competent for this and this person will come in the Tomb the next day and will take his coffin out and the river has no power to rise up further.

When the next day rose, a person hiding his face behind a green veil came there. He did not unveil his face and without any hesitation, he entered the blessed grave and lifted the coffin up. When his coffin was discovered which was absent before, many people reached there to see the blessed sight. They say his blessed body, which was as fresh as if he was just given a funeral bath. Drops of water were still dropping from his blessed beard! Subhaan Allah! Fragrance filled the area miles across and the witnessing persons were spell bound in ecstasy.

It was ordered by him to bury his blessed body again in a compound near the well under a maple tree because it is a pure land and fit for the new tomb. The blessed coffin was not buried in a dig grave this time but instead it was just laid on land surface and was given the shape of a grave and tomb.

One of the most surprising things of this tomb is that there is no person who will appoint people or will remove people from their jobs and routine duties of the Tomb for maintenance etc. Different people do their jobs of tomb services under a direct undisclosed order received from the Sultan ul Faqar Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe!

He led a simple and plain life with complete focus on Islam and Spirituality. He never liked Karamaat and always tried his best to keep his Karamaat and real self hidden from the eyes of people. He was the Sultan ul Faqar, Perfect Kaamil, Akmal , Mukammil , Jamey , Noor-ul-Huda , Friend of Allah, Aulia Allah, Master of Attendance (Huzoor ), the Knight Rider on Graves, Dervish , Sultan and much much more.

He has disliked and disapproved World in every form and shade and has ordered to spend in the night all that which one gets in the day and spend in the day all that which one possesses in the night. He has given much emphasis on Shariyat in his blessed books and had made Shariyat the ladder for his ascension.

He was the Master of Tareeqat, Haqeeqat and Ultimate Divine Knowledge Marifat and the Invoking Spirits on Graves (Dawat ) and was the one endowed with every Divine Gift, which a Perfect Faqeer Murshid Pir and a Born Friend of Allah can have. He is the most Perfect Guide for the present and the Last Eons for the whole mankind and his books are the ultimate source of divine knowledge and guidance.

His books discuss and teach in detail everything that one must have to have union with Allah and presence in the Majlis (Assemblies) of the Holy Prophet Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam. Love, devotion, sincerity and Knowledge (Ilm ) and Faqar and purity of the Inward are basic ingredients and Shariyat , Tareeqat , Haqeeqat , Marifat , Dawat , Mukaashifa , Muraqiba , Hazoori , etc. are the limbs and wings to reach the ultimate goals. All these things and many more have been described in depth up the rightest level desired.

Following quotes from his blessed books throw more light on the powers and effective his books have:

None else can reach that Station where I have reached [in the Nearness of Lord],
I am the goshawk of the Lamakaan where a [mean] housefly cannot pass [that is, there those who are like a housefly have no ability to fly],
Where Tablet and Pen (Loh-O-Qalam ) and the Arsh and Kursi , Both-the-Worlds and the Angels too cannot reach,
There the addicted of the cupidity can never reach [that is, there the perception and thought of the man cannot even reach].

I am the Perfect as well as the Aamil and Arif and the one, who has the Clean Heart,
I am the Aashiq as well as the Mashooq and the one, who is Connected with the Court of Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam.

I am Knight-Rider, I am Knight-Rider, and I am Knight-Rider,
Ghaus and Qutub are under my weight as my ride.

I am seer of Lord and attendee of the Assembly of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam,
I am the Perfect in respect of Shariyat and I am steadfast (and persistent) in the Faith of Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam.

I am the Arif of God and the Seeker of the Raza (gladness and accreditation) of Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam,
Each step of mine is in agreement with the Deen of Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam and I am steadfast (and persistent) in this Deen (Faith) of-Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam.

VERY OPENLY AND CLEARLY, HE HAS SAID IN MANY BOOKS THAT HE WHO READS HIS BOOKS; HE IS LEFT WITH NO NEED OF ANY PHYSICALLY EXISTING GUIDE AND PIR. HIS BOOKS ARE SUFFICIENT AS A PERFECT SPIRITUAL GUIDE FOR THE BLESSED READERS. The following are extracts from some of his blessed books regarding this:

Everyone who is the Seeker of Haq , I am present [for his guidance],
From the outset to the end, I will take, in a breath,
O Seeker [of Haq]! Come; O Seeker! Come; O Seeker! Come;
So that I take you to God in the very first day!

NOOR UL HUDA KLAN

That person, who will study this book with devotion and absolute sincerity, he will not be left with any need for the Bai-at (Initiation) on the hand of a physically existing Guide and Pir and his Instruction. He will get the entire worldly and religious Ranks through this book.

Every that person, who will keep this book under study day and night with absolute sincerity, Sure and conviction, he will become knowledgeable of the Mysteries of Lord. He will not be left with need of the Teachings and Instruction of physically existing Guide. This book is the Source for reaching the Ma’rifat of Haq and is the granter of the honor of Attendance and Source for reaching the Assembly of Hadhrat Muhammad Mustafa Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam. Its reader becomes the guide of the creation and becomes the one with Pure (holy) Inward but the Seeker, studying the book, must be truthfully attached, bashful and the one with deference.

KALEED UT TAUHEED - KHURD

And whosoever will keep this book in his study day and night, nothing will remain hidden and unseen for him and he will not left with any dependency on any other [if Allah wills] and if a destitute person will read it, he will become Rich and if a disheveled and confounded person will read it, the Spiritual Stability for all the time to come will be achieved to him and if a Naqis (Imperfect) person will read it, he will become the Perfect.

He will not be left with any necessity of taking Physical Bai-at (Initiation on the hands of a Spiritual Guide) because through the study of this book, he will recognize and know the Selk Salook of the Faqar in both the Outward and the Inward. This book is useful for both the learner and the Master. And if a Ignorant (and silly) will read it, he will become the Faazil the Master of Interpretation.

Each word of this book grants the Observation of the Attendance of Haq and every line of this book reveals Secrets and Mysteries of the Devine Tajalliyaat (Disclosures) and Mushahidaat (Visions) through the Auspiciousness (and blessing) of the Name-Allah-the-Essence (Ism-e-Allah-Zaat) and the sacred Words of the Noble Prophet Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam and drives the reader out of the Falsity and the exactitude of the Irfaan (the realm of Ma’rifat) of the Haq discloses its beauty in the mirror of reader’s heart!

AIN UL ARIFEEN

That person, who has no Guide as guide for him,
This book is sufficient for him as a guide to God,
Always keep the People of Deen (Ahl e Deen) in your study,
You will become the Arif Fi Allah Haq-ul-Yaqeen

QURB-E-DIDAAR

Every that person, who will make the study of this book his Source, for him this study will work as a Source for the Inwardly Vision, the Ma’rifat of Divine Light and for the honor of the Nearness of Presence. That person, who will read it in this way with absolute sincerity, he will not be left with need of Initiation (Bai-at) on hand, Instruction and the Irshaad of physically existing Guide.

Those who have no Guide, for the sake of Allah Almighty I am their Guide,
And those who have no Pir, I am their Pir from the Holy Prophet of Allah Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam,
I am Perfect Qadiri and I am addressed in the name Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe,
When Bahu Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe became Fanaa-Fi-Allah (Destroyed in Allah), the Cover was lifted,
Only he deserves to be called a Pir,
Who grants five treasures to the Seekers in five days,
The Scholar and Faazil are under my command,
Because I am a companion of the sacred Assembly of Hadhrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam,
These Ranks are available by the Qadiri by the Bounty of God,
You wish for the Nemul-Badal of these from a Qadiri,
I am the Guide of the Guides by virtue of the Attendance,
The bodies of my Disciples are the Secrets and Mysteries of Divine Light,
I do not find any Seeker competent for Ataa (grant),
The Incomplete and Imperfect Seeker is the wrong doer and the enemy of his soul.

O Seeker! If you are True-Seeker, then handover yourself to me,
Become like “dead body” and gasp not, so that I can make you Pure (holy), removing all entrails, by giving you the bath (Ghusal) of Ultimate Divine Knowledge,
I am Seeker as well as the Sought after, and in capacity of a Mukammil (Complete) Guide,
I am fully aware of all Stations and Destinations of a Seeker and a Guide.

In short, his blessed books serve his Attendance in us and are rich in many Miraculous phenomena and full of the Inwardly Treasures which a True-Seeker of Allah may need. May Allah grant us Success to study and act upon and bless the Great Guide Hadhrat sultan bahoo Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe in all worlds! Ameen! Read more English.!     Read in Urdu!

We remember the blessed name of that Pure Personality sultan ul faqr, who is the Fifth Sultan ul Faqara; on him Faqar and Marifat reaches its Ultimate end; his blessed name in itself is unique and matchless and proves on his Pure and Supreme calibers.
 
Whose name is this that has come on my tongue, O God!
That my utterance kisses my tongue before pronouncing it!
 
This Pure and Blessed Personality Rahmatullah Alaihi is our Spiritual Mentor Hazrat Sultan ul Arifeen Burhaan ul Waasileen Muqtadaa e Kaamileen Fanaa Fi Ain e Zaat e Yaa Hu Hazrat Shaikh ul Haq wa Deen Hazrat Pir Sultan Bahu Qudas Sirruhul Aziz. He was the special Deputy and Spiritual Descendant and like him, is the (Fifth) Sultan ul Faqara and Sayyed ul Konain.
 
Hazrat Sultan ul Arifeen Hazrat Shaikh Sultan Bahu Qudas Sirruhul Aziz was born in a village in the town Shor Kot of District Jhang of the Punjab Province (of Pakistan) in 1039 (H). It was the era of the great Mughal King Aurangzeb Alamgir. His respectful father, Hazrat Muhammad Bayazid Rahmatullah Alaihi, was very righteous, observer of Shariyat, Hafiz of Quran, expert in issues pertaining to Fiqah and was the special commanding officer of the Mughal Sultanate in his area responsible to important things representing the state. His respectful mother, Hazrat Bibi Raasti Rahmatullah Alaiha, was a Perfect Wali Allah.

He takes care of the True-Seeker as he is the Seeker of Haq and says good-bye to the False Seeker, as he is in Demand of the Baatil . All these four Manasib (Positions) are achieved within first four days in the Qadiri (Sufi) Order. Murshid-e-Kaamil has full Tasarruf over all these four Manasib (Positions). He possesses Visualization and tremendous Jamiyat. For this, complete Tawajuh and the Kaamil Tafakkur is needed beyond limits. If it is kept by a Seeker, he uses to be the Master of Spectacle at the Martaba of the Aashiq .

 

ABYAAT (COUPLETS)

O True-Seeker! Lay your head in front of me even if I behead you!

If you are a True-Seeker, gasp not and sacrifice your head and life,

O Seeker! Advance headless, unto Allah to appear in His Court, after getting decapitated,

Then you see the Didaar of Allah and Liqaa with pleasure.

 

Egotist Seeker remains in the Hazoor of the Murshid for many years but remains deprived of the Marifat and Wisaal in wake of his disrespect. He speaks too much concerning his service for the Pir and indulges in Qeel-O-Qaal . He is greedy and becomes a threat for the life of Murshid like the Malik ul Maut (Angel of death). Such Seeker a slave in the captivity of Nafs and [always] shows complains and grievance before the Pir.

 

BAYT (COUPLET)

O the Seeker! If you are truthful, Demand from me,

So that I should grant you the Qurb of Allah!

 

The Murshid-e-Kaamil and the Master of Mansib Murshid can grant the Ilm of Marifat of Lord ? and Hazoori to the Seeker as bosom by bosom, gaze by gaze, Qalb by Qalb, Ruh by Ruh and Sirr by Sirr. With this Tawajuh and Talqeen endowed with Yaqeen, the Seeker becomes Roshan-Zamir and Laa-Yuhtaaj . He becomes Emir of Both-the-Worlds, and reaches unto the utmost Station of Faqar, that is, "When Faqar reaches unto its extremity (and entirety), that is Allah" and becomes Fanaa-Fi-Allah (Destruction in Allah) at once.
