Hadith Qudsi and The Rank of The Crown of The Saints
Splendour of the hands of the saints
Dear Islamic brothers! Allah Almighty further states in the Hadith Qudsī:
وَيَدَهُ الَّتِي يَبْطِشُ بِهَا
“I become his hands through which he grasps.”
This means that although the hands of the saints visibly resemble ours, their strength does not lie in flesh and bones, rather it lies in the special power bestowed upon them by Allah Almighty.
Two marvels of the hands of Shaykh ꜤAbd al-Qādir al-Jīlānī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه
1. Shaykh Shihāb al-Dīn al-Suharwardī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه states:
I used to read the books of scholastic theology a lot. One day my maternal uncle took me to Shaykh ꜤAbd al-Qādir al-Jīlānī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه. The shaykh placed his hand on my heart, and through this I lost all knowledge of all the books I had read in scholastic theology up until that time. At the same time my heart was filled with عِلْمِ لَدُنّی (specific knowledge from Allah Almighty).[1]
2. Shaykh Abū Muhammad al-Maḥallī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه states:
I came from Egypt to visit Shaykh ꜤAbd al-Qādir al-Jīlānī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه in Baghdad. I was about to leave after spending a few days there when the shaykh placed his finger in my mouth and said, “Suck it repeatedly.” I did as instructed, and through the blessings of this, I did not feel any hunger from Baghdad all the way to Egypt.[2]
