The Reality of Saintly Miracles

سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه This is indeed a karāmah! How many people today know how to respond to a sneeze? In fact, how many people know there is even the concept of this? If we analyse the response of the shaykh, we also see his mastery in Arabic grammar. When responding to male who sneezes, we should say یَرْحَمُکَ اللہ. When replying to a female, we are to say یَرْحَمُکِ اللہ.

سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه Look at the knowledge of Shaykh ꜤAbd al-Qādir al-Jīlānī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه whilst he was still in his mother’s womb. Not only was he speaking, but also adhering to the rules of Arabic grammar!

At five years of age, he went to a teacher to begin his formal Quranic studies. After reciting اَعُوْذُبِاللہ and بِسْمِ اللہِ, he began reciting Al-Fātiḥa, and went on to recite the next 18 parts of the Quran. When he stopped, the teacher said, “Son, continue reading!”

The shaykh replied, “This is all I have memorised, as my mother has memorised this much. She recited the Quran as she was pregnant with me, and I memorised this much from listening to her.”^{^[1]}

سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه This also shows many individuals are born as saints right from their mother’s womb, leading to them displaying a host of miracles during their infant years.

In a similar manner, receiving food form the unseen is also a karāmah. This even even took place during the physical lifetime of the final Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.

Let us listen to a story of how Lady Fāṭima رَضِیَ الـلّٰـهُ عَنْهَا received food from the unseen.
