Book Name:Blessed Saints’ Manners of Visiting Madinah

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you seen that the heart of A’la Hadrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was filled with deep and desperate longing          for visiting the blessed court of the most Revered and Renowned Rasool              صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. If he had wanted he would have been privileged to visit the blessed mausoleum of the Noble Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم after some time,  but since the deep devotion and strong attachment to the Beloved Rasool         صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was his true aim and destination; so, even his critical illness could not prevent him from presenting himself in the blessed court, i.e. the blessed Raudah of the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.

In brief! He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه had a profound passion just to have a glimpse at the blessed Raudah of the Greatest Nabi صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and to fill his eyes with spiritual coolness even if he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه had to risk his life, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه did not worry. Moreover, his following sentence is also worth mentioning with golden words in history: ‘If you ask earnestly, my true aim and objective is the destination to Taybah, both the times, I embark on this journey with the same intention, if it is not so مَـعَـاذَ الـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, the bliss & spirituality of my Hajj would go unfulfilled.

ان کے طفیل حج بھی خدا نے کرا دئیے     اصلِ مُراد حاضری اس پاک در کی ہے

 

Dear Islamic brothers! Certainly, visiting the blessed raudah of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is of great privilege and it is a passionate desire and aspiration of each and every devotee of Rasool, and he lives his life with this very hope: ‘One day or other, we will also have privilege to see the spiritual light of blessed Green Tomb.’ And whoever has calling from the blessed court of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, starts preparation of his blessed journey and his expressions give impression as if he says:

 

شُکرِ خُدا کہ آج گَھڑی اُس سَفر کی ہے

جِس پَر نِثار جان فَلاح و ظَفَر کی ہے

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
