Book Name:Ghous-e-Pak ka Ilmi Martaba

تِرے دَر سے ہے منگتوں کا گُزارا یا شہِ بغداد

یہ سُن کر میں نے بھی دامن پَسارا یا شہِ بغداد

شَہا! خَیرات لینے کو سلاطینِ زمانہ نے

تِرے دَربار میں دامن پَسارا یا شہِ بغداد

 

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you heard! Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Pak رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه would show great affection towards Islamic students as he would send food for them from his own home. Therefore, we should also address the needs of Islamic students as per our financial ability. For example, if a person has no financial problem, he should, for the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, with good intentions, contribute to satisfy the needs of poor Islamic students’ books [Islamic books], clothes, accommodation as per the weather especially, and include himself amongst those who render services to Islam. Perhaps by virtue of this good deed, our Rab عَزَّوَجَلَّ may get pleased with us forever.  Perhaps by virtue of this good deed, we may be forgiven. For example, the way we want to give good food to our children, we want to see them in nice clothes, we take great care of them in winter, we try to protect them from cold weather by thinking that my son cannot bear a light cold wind, nor can he bear a little blow of warm air, similarly, we should think about Islamic students as they may also need many basic necessities of life which will not be available easily everywhere.

Today, we are celebrating grand Giyarhween [i.e. the sacred Giyarhween that is celebrated on the 11th of Rabi’-ul-Aakhir] of Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Pak رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه. He was so affectionate towards Islamic students that he used to overlook their weaknesses. Sayyiduna Shaykh Ahmad Bin Mubarak رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said that Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه had a non-Arab student who was very dull. He would understand things with great difficulty. Once that student was sitting reading his lesson near Ghaus-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, a person namely Ibn Samhal came to see Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-A’zam رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه. When he saw the dullness of the student and the patience of Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Pak رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه upon the dullness of the student, he became very surprised. As the student left, Ibn Samhal humbly said: I am surprised at the dullness
