Shaykhs have stated: The consecutive saintly miracles of Shaykh Abdul Qaadir Jeelani قُـدِّسَ سِـرُّہُ الـرَّبَّـانِی are the similitude of the chain of pearls when it breaks, one by one the pearls begin to fall. In short, the saintly miracles of Ghaus-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه are too many to be counted.

The blessed personality of Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه is a great example of saintly miracles and unique excellence. It is the blessing of his blessed name that whenever it is pronounced, one gets rid of a poisonous animal. Hence, it is quoted that when anybody comes across a lion and he pronounces the name of Ghaus-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, that lion will not attack him. (Nuzhat-ul-Khaatir)

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Definition of a saintly miracle

It is mentioned on page 36 of Karamaat-e-Sahabah [a 342-page publication of Maktaba-tul-Madinah, the publishing department of Dawat-e-Islami]: An extraordinary occurrence that surpasses all known human powers which does not normally occur, if it is manifested by any pious saint it is called a saintly miracle (Karamah) whereas it is called ‘Irhaas’ if such a thing is manifested by a Prophet before [the declaration of] his Prophethood; and if it is manifested after the declaration of Prophet-hood, then it is called a Mu’jizah (miracle). If a similar wonder is manifested by a Mu`min (true believer) it is called Ma’oonat. If such a supernatural manifestation is exhibited by some Kafir (unbeliever) or a transgressor, then it is termed as Istidraaj. (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 56-58)
