18. Who shall I show off for?

The great Ḥadīš master Sayyidunā Muhammad Bin ‘Abdur Raḥmān عَـلَيْهِ رَحْمَةُ الـرَّحْمٰن once visited someone. During the conversation the man said to him, ‘I think, I sense showing off and pretence in your deeds.’ Instantly he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه picked a small piece of straw from the ground and said, ‘Who would I show off to with my deeds? I swear by Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! All worldly people of the entire earth are of worth less in my eyes than this splinter.’ (Siyar A’lām-un-Nubalā, vol. 7, pp. 110)

I only came to see how you were.’ A’lā Ḥaḍrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه replied, ‘Thank you.’ After another short silence, A’lā Ḥaḍrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه asked again, ‘Do you need anything?’ Again the man replied in the negative. Then A’lā Ḥaḍrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه instructed someone to take the sweet dish inside.

A short while later the man requested for a Ta’wīz. A’lā Ḥaḍrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه said, ‘I asked you three times whether you needed anything, but you did not answer! Fine, wait there.’ He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه then had a Ta’wīz brought from his nephew, the late ‘Alī Aḥmad Khān, (who was appointed to write Ta’wīẓāt) and gave it to the man. As well as
