عَـلَيْهِ رَحْمَةُ الـرَّحْمٰن to start eating. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه picked up a piece of Kakri [a kind of cucumber, usually thinner and longer than it] from the tray and ate it. Then, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه ate the second piece and then the third. Following him, other people also stretched their hands towards the tray of Kakri, but A’la Hadratرَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه stopped everyone and said, ‘I will eat all the Kakris.’ Therefore, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه ate all the Kakris.

All the people present were taken by surprise thinking that A’la Hadrat
رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه normally eats very less. How come he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه ate so much Kakri today? When asked about eating all the Kakris, A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه said, ‘When I ate the first piece, it was bitter; and so was the second and the third. Therefore, I stopped everyone from eating it in case somebody spits it out after putting it in his mouth due to it being bitter. Since eating Kakri is a Sunnah of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, that’s why I could not stand the fact that anyone spits it out after eating it.’ (Faizan-e-Sunnat, pp. 457)

مجھ کو میٹھے مُصطَفٰے کی سُنَّتوں سے پیار ہے

اِن شَآءَ اللّٰە دو جہاں میں اپنا بیڑا پار ہے

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب           صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! Did you hear that the devotion of A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه made him eat the bitter Kakris, but could not stand the fact that anyone makes a face or expresses disliking it after eating the beloved thing, Kakri, of the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Undoubtedly, this is the apparent proof of his passionate love for the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and his Sunnah; because the one who loves the Sunnah of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم actually loves Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. As Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: ‘مَنۡ اَحَبَّ سُنَّتِىۡ فَـقَدۡ اَحَبَّنِىۡ وَ مَنۡ اَحَبَّنِىۡ كَانَ مَعِىَ فِى الْجَنَّةٍ’ i.e. The one who loved my Sunnah loved me, and the one who loved me will be with me in the Paradise. (Mishkat-ul-Masabih, vol. 1, pp. 55, Hadees 175)
