Dear Islamic brothers! Pious saints do not care for worldly possessions, posts and desire for fame. Pious saints are the blessings of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Pious saints are the mercy of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Pious saints always live a simple life instead of living a luxurious and comfortable life. Pious saints follow Shariyya strictly. Pious saints clean the inner self of the people. Pious saints connect the bondmen of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ to Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and also make them the beloved bondmen of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. One can make his world and the Hereafter better by having the company of pious saints and attain abundant goodness. Pious saints are not afraid of anyone except Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Despite being pious and abstinent, pious saints remain frightened of the fear of Hell. Pious saints always remain busy with Divine worship. Pious saints fulfil the needs of the creation. Pious saints get the knowledge of Ghaib (unseen) by the bestowal of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Pious saints are aware of the conditions of the hearts. Pious saints even make a person deserving of Heavenly palace in the world. Let’s listen to a faith-refreshing saintly miracle of a Majzoob pious saint, Sayyiduna Bahlol Daana رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه and develop devotion towards the pious saints.

Permit of a Heavenly palace:

Zubaida Khatoon, the wife of Caliph Haroon Rasheed, was a pious woman who had great love and devotion to pious predecessors. Once she was going somewhere with her maidservants. During the journey, she saw in a valley that Sultanul Ashiqeen Sayyiduna Bahlol Daana رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was making something with the pieces of stone. She got off the riding-animal and went to Sayyiduna Bahlol Daana رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه and stood there respectfully, but he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْهَ did not pay any attention to her. Mustering courage, Zubaida Khatoon asked: Your honour, what are you making? He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه replied that he was making a Heavenly palace. Zubaida Khatoon asked a question again. Will you sell this Heavenly palace to me? He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه replied: I will definitely sell it! Having heard this answer she was over the moon. In the same hopeful tone, she asked again: At what price? He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه replied: For one Dirham.
