The heartbroken woman was upset and kept turning and looking behind. The lover told her that she would not gain anything by looking behind as her husband could not come back. The woman replied, ‘I am looking at the king of saints.’ Upon hearing, the lover laughed and said, ‘The king of saints died many years ago; how can you see him now?’ As soon as he said this two elderly men appeared; one of whom beheaded the heretic lover. Then they brought the woman and the horse to the place where her husband was lying dead. One of the men picked up the head, put it back onto the shoulders and said, “Get up with the command of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ.” At that very instant the man came back to life. Following that incident the elderly men disappeared.
The husband and wife rode back home on the horse. The relatives of the murdered lover recognised the horse, so they filed a suit in the court of Ranjīt Singh against the couple, on the basis that they had the horse and their man was missing so they most probably murdered him. The couple related the whole incident that took place in the jungle before the court. They said that one of the old men looked like the famous Majżūb[1] Gul Muhammad Shāĥ Ṣāḥib. The court summoned Gul Muhammad Shāĥ to attend the court and when he arrived, he explained the incident word by word to the court.
[1] Majżūb is a person who is so much overwhelmed by remembrance of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ that he becomes unconscious of his surroundings.
