آہ! پلّے زَر نہیں رَختِ سفر سرور نہیں

تم بُلا لو تم بُلانے پر ہو قادِر یا نبی

In the fourth night, once again I enjoyed the privilege of seeing the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم [in my dream]. The Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘You may go to perform Hajj this year.’ I humbly mentioned my financial situation to my Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. The Beloved Prophet
صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘Dig at a certain place in your house, over there you will find the armour of your grandfather.’ Having said this, the Noble Prophet
صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم left. When I woke up the next morning I was overjoyed. Having performed Salah I dug the place that was mentioned to me by the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. There really was precious armour and it was neat and clean; it seemed as if it had never been used! I sold it for 4000 dinars and thanked Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! By the favour of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, my travelling expenses were fulfilled.

(‘Uyoon-ul-Hikayaat, pp. 326)

جب بُلایا آقا نے         خُود ہی اِنتِظام ہوگئے

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! Our blessed religion ‘Islam’ has taught us to help Muslims, to behave well with others, to assist the poor and needy and to fulfil the needs of orphans; it is for this reason that Zakat was made Fard upon those who have wealth to discharge our Zakat, Islam provides the teachings of generosity elaborating the virtues of optional Sadaqat and condemns stinginess. Therefore, while discharging Zakat, we should perform it by keeping all Shar’i rulings in mind for purely attaining the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّinstead of showing laziness and stinginess as well as make up your mind to give optional Sadaqat as Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ likes Sadaqah a lot, and besides fulfilling the needs of the poor and destitute, it diverts calamities and
