Non-Muslim embraced Islam!

Sayyiduna Maalik Bin Dinar رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه once rented a house. Just adjacent to the house was the house of a non-Muslim. That non-Muslim, due to his enmity and malice, used to throw dirty water and filth in the blessed house of Sayyiduna Maalik Bin Dinar رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه through a roof drain, but he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه used to remain patient. And then one day, that person himself came to Sayyiduna Maalik Bin Dinar رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه and humbly asked, ‘Don’t you have any problem with the filth that passes through my roof drain?’ Sayyiduna Maalik Bin Dinar رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه replied gently, ‘Whatever filth enters my house through that roof drain, I simply sweep it out.’ The non-Muslim humbly asked, ‘Don’t you get angry despite so much trouble?’ Sayyiduna Maalik Bin Dinar رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه replied: I do, but I suppress it because Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has stated in the Glorious Quran:

وَ  الْكٰظِمِیْنَ  الْغَیْظَ  وَ  الْعَافِیْنَ  عَنِ  النَّاسِؕ-وَ  اللّٰهُ  یُحِبُّ  الْمُحْسِنِیْنَۚ(۱۳۴)

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: And who restrain anger and who pardon men. And virtuous people are dear to Allah. (Part 4, Surah Aal-e-‘Imran, Ayah 134)

Having heard this reply the non-Muslim embraced Islam.

اَخلاق ہوں اچھے مِرا کِردار ہو سُتھرا

محبوب کا صدقہ تُو مجھے نیک بنا دے

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Whole family embraced Islam

A non-Muslim neighbour of Sayyiduna Ba-Yazeed Bistami رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه went on a journey leaving his wife and children at home. His child used to cry at night. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه asked (his wife): Why does the child weep? She replied: There is no lamp at home and the child is afraid of the darkness. Since that day he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه used to fill up the lamp with oil and after lighting it sent it to his
