so and so for dirhams 10,000 from Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Now it is at the Mercy of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ to fulfil the guarantee of Habib ‘Ajami.

After some time, that person passed away. He had made a will that the (guarantee) letter be placed in his shroud. (After burial) in the morning, people saw a letter on his grave in which it was written: This is a letter of salvation for Habib ‘Ajami from the house which he bought for so and              so. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has granted that person the house. Sayyiduna Habib ‘Ajami           رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه took the letter and wept bitterly and said: ‘This is a letter of salvation for me from Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ.’ (Nuzhat-ul-Majalis, vol. 2, pp. 6)

Remember! In the above-mentioned parable, Sayyiduna Habib Ajami’s act of using the entrusted money and giving it to others in Sadaqah is only specific to pious saints and their especial authorities and power. It is one of such parables. Otherwise, everyone is not allowed as per Sharia to use anyone’s trust for themselves or spend it on other people.

Unique trust in Allah and matchless Sadaqah

Similarly, Sayyidatuna ‘Aaishah Siddiqah رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا has narrated that once a poor man asked her for something. She was observing Sawm and had nothing except a roti. She told her maidservant to give him the roti. The maidservant said, ‘There is no other thing for your Iftari except it.’ Sayyidatuna ‘Aaishah رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا said, ‘Give him the roti.’ The maid says, ‘I gave him the roti. Before the evening, somebody from Ahl-e-Bayt (household of the Beloved Rasool           صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم) or someone else who used to give gifts, sent meat of a nanny goat covered with a cloth as a Hadyah [gift]. She رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا called her maid and said: ‘Eat from this, it is better than that roti.’ (Shu’ab-ul-Iman, vol. 3,  pp. 620, Hadees 3482)

Dear Islamic brothers! This is the blessed conduct of Allah-loving people who give in Sadaqah whatever they have. That is why by virtue of their absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ bestows better reward upon them.

An Abdaal (highest level in the ranks of Sufism) of his time, Sayyiduna Abu Ja’far Bin Khattab رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated: Once a beggar came to my door and asked for help. I asked my wife if she had anything. She replied that she had
