He left his city to visit a sick person

Once, a woman from the family of two devotees of A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه from Sher-pur, Pilibhit District (Hind), fell ill, so, some individuals from Sher-pur came to take A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه to them, and insisted that he travel with them. A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه promised to travel with them, and with many people were waiting to welcome him at the train station, and they took him with great comfort and ease. As soon as A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه arrived there, one individual came and said, ‘When you boarded the train, her condition improved. Now that you have actually arrived, she will be totally cured, اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه.’ A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه stayed for two days, and with the grace of Allah Almighty, she was cured. A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was bade farewell with great respect and honour. (Faizan-e-Hadrat, p. 183, summarised)

Dear Islamic brothers! From the aforementioned account, we come to know that A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was a Wali who possessed miracles; through the blessed presence of A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه, the sick would be cured. Despite being busy in serving the religion day and night, A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه would be at the forefront of bringing happiness to others, A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه would not hurt the feeling of another without a valid Shar’i reason, and he رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه would act upon the Sunnah of visiting the sick.

Let us now reflect upon ourselves for a moment: Is this passion for serving the religion present within us too? Are our chests filled with the passion of bringing joy to other Muslims? Do we also fulfil our promises? Do we have the honour of visiting the sick too? If not, then let us make an intention that whilst following in the footsteps of A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه, we will serve the religion, remain at the forefront of bringing joy to Muslims, never hurt the feelings of another Muslim without a Shar’i reason, be sure to fulfil our promises, and try our utmost to act upon the Sunnah of visiting the sick. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                                                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
