HIS EXCELLENCE:

Hazrat Aale Rasool Marehrwi (radi Allaho anhu) is from amongst the great Masha'ikh of the 13th Century. He served the Ahle Sunnat Wa Jamaat with great sincerity and dedication. His was very kind and generous and always showed love towards the needy and the orphans.' His character and habits were a beautiful example of the Sunnat of the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam). He always performed his Namaaz in congregation at the Musjid and not a single Tahajjud Salaah of his was ever made Qaza. He was always willing to help others and never revealed the wrongs of people in the presence of others. He would only prescribe those duas, which are from the Hadith of the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam). He always dressed in the garb of Ulama. He always presented himself in the Mehfil-e-Meelad, Naat Mehfil, lectures, Qira'at Mehfils etc. He never compromised the Shariah.

 

He was so kind, that whenever any one asked for money, he would never refuse them. He never performed Imaamat. He always remained a muqtadi. One Maulana Ainul Hassan Saahib, who was a Saahib-e-Kashf, arrived in Marehrah Shareef. He joined the Namaaz and then left in between Salaah, breaking his Namaaz. After Namaaz, he looked at the Haafiz Saahib who was the Imam and said, 'Haafiz Saahib, there is no need to go to the market place and buy groceries whilst in Namaaz. How far do you expect us to go with you?'

 

In other words, he knew of what the Imam was thinking during Salaah. When Hazrat heard Mufti Saahibs, question to the Imam, he became very upset and said, 'It is better you lead the Namaaz, rather than following Haafiz Saahib everywhere. You yourself are not fully in Salaah, otherwise how would you be able to know what is in the hearts of other.'

 

 

HIS KARAAMATS:

There are various karaamats of Hazrat, but only a few are being quoted.

 

Philosophy of Me'raj: Once, one of Hazrat's mureeds began to wonder how Rasoolullah (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam) went for Mer'aj in such a short space of time. During this time, Hazrat was performing wudhu. Hazrat asked him to go into his room and bring him a towel.

 

The man went into the room. He saw a beautiful orchard outside the house. He could not help but to go into the orchard. Whilst walking in the garden, he found himself in a huge city.' In the city, he decided to start a business. He married in the same city, and even had children. He lived there for twenty years.

 

Suddenly, he heard the voice of Hazrat Aale Rasool Marehrwi (radi Allaho anhu), he found himself at the window once again. He rushed in and took the towel to Hazrat. When he went to Hazrat, he saw that he had just made wudhu and the water was still on his blessed face and his hands were still wet.

 

The mureed was astonished by what had happened to him. Hazrat smiled at him and said, 'Mia, You went there and lived for twenty years and even married, and here, the water of my wudhu has not dried up as yet. I am sure that you now understand the Me'raj of the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam).' Subhaanallah!

 

Present during Hajj: Once Haji Raza Khan Saahib Marehrwi went for Hajj, and after Hajj, he presented himself before Maulana Muhammad Ismail Saahib Muhajir, so that he may become his mureed.

 

The respected Maulana said, 'Why did you not take bai'at from Hazrat Shah Aale Rasool (radi Allaho anhu). He was with me a little while ago.'

 

 

When Haji Saahib returned to Marehrah Shareef, he narrated this incident to Hazrat Aale Rasool (radi Allaho anhu). Hazrat said, 'He must have been mistaken. I did not even leave the Khanqah to go anywhere.'

2. The outer appearance of a Darvesh should be that of Hazrat Imam Azam Abu Hanifa (radi Allaho anhu) and his inner appearance should be like that of Hazrat Hussain bin Mansoor Hal'laaj (radi Allaho anhu).
