Book Name:Aashiqon ka Safr e Madina

causing my right wrist bone to break; when the pain increased, I kissed the wrist and said: O the pain of Madinah! Stay in my heart as I have found you from the court of the beloved.

 

تِرا دَرد میرا دَرماں تِرا غم مِری خوشی ہے                   مجھے دَرد دینے والے تری بندہ پَروَرِی ہے

 

The pain had relieved that time but my wrist did not work properly. I had the X-ray of my wrist after 17 days from the royal hospital; the X-ray report revealed that the wrist bone broke into two pieces which had much gap in between but I did not receive any medical treatment, then the hand gradually started working. Upon this, a doctor of Madinah Munawwarah named Dr. Isma’eel said that it was a real miracle because the hand would not move from a medical point of view. I have still got that X-ray with me; the bone is still broken; I am writing Tafseer (commentary) with that broken hand; I took only this treatment of my broken hand that I stood at the blessed & Sacred Mausoleum and humbly supplicated that Your Highness! My hand is broken; O the one who joined the broken shin of ‘Abdullah Bin ‘Ateek (رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ)!    O the one who joined the broken arm of Mu’aaz Bin ‘Afra (رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ)! Please join my broken hand. (Tafseer-e-Na’eemi, vol. 9, pp. 388)

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

 

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you observed the great Madani mind-set of our pious predecessors that they would not only face the trials and tribulations with a cheerful appearance & a smiling face but would also consider these troubles a privilege for them as the abovementioned parable evidently illustrates that Mufti Sahib رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه suffered a severe wrist bone fracture but instead of crying and wailing he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه presumed the pain as a sign of reward for him on behalf of the blessed court of the Noblest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and set an example of true patience and fortitude. Nevertheless, it was the speciality of these blessed figures that they accepted thorns on the way to Madinah Munawwarah as flowers. If only we are also privileged to have the Sadaqah of the pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی and if only when on the journey
