Book Name:Karamat e khuwaja Ghareeb Nawaz

Regarding the piety of Sayyiduna Khuwajah Ghareeb Nawaz رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, it has been stated that he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه used to be in Wudu all the time. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would often be lost in the remembrance of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, keeping his eyes closed. One can judge the yearning for recitation and pleasure for worship from this that everyday he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would complete one Quran in the day and one Quran in the night. Furthermore, upon the completion of every Quran, a voice from Haatif-e-Ghaybi would be heard that we have accepted your Quran that you have finished. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه spent his nights in worship and days in observing fasts. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would only eat a little dry bread after soaking it in water in the evening. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه often offered Salat-ul-Fajr with the Wudu of Salat-ul-‘Isha. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was so simple that he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would wear clothes with patches but they used to be neat and clean.

دِل سے دُنیا کی محبت کی مصیبت دُور ہو

دیدو عشقِ مُصطَفٰے خواجہ پِیا خواجہ پِیا

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Title of ‘Mu’eenuddin’, from the blessed Raudah

Having gained the blessings from Sayyiduna Khuwajah Usman Haarwani      رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, who was his spiritual guide, Sayyiduna Khuwajah Ghareeb Nawaz رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, by the bestowal of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, attained sainthood. With his spiritual guide’s permission, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه then set off on a journey. Wherever he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه stayed whilst on his journey, if he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه became a little famous, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would leave that place. In this way, travelling through different places, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه reached Makkah Mukarramah. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه stayed there for some days and then left for Madinah Munawwarah and was privileged to behold the blessed Raudah of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه then started residing near the blessed Raudah. One day,        the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم blessed him with this good news:          ‘O Mu’eenuddin, you are the Mu’een (i.e. the helper of our religion (Islam),
