Quṭb e Madinah’s Lofty Qualities
Sayyidī Quṭb-e-Madīnah رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْه was Kind-Hearted
Amir Ahl al-Sunnah, Mawlānā Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadiri دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـهْ writes while describing the qualities of his Shaykh:
1. Sayyidī Quṭb-e-Madīnah رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was an embodiment of knowledge and righteous practice.
2. He travelled from his home and, passing through Baghdad, reached Madinah. During this journey, he faced many severe trials that only he could endure with patience.
3. Sayyidī Quṭb-e-Madīnah رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was well-mannered and kind. Whenever someone came to visit him, he would often welcome them by saying “مرحبا! مرحبا”.
4. His nature was exceptionally simple and humble. Amir Ahl al-Sunnah states, “I have often seen that whenever someone requested him for duas, he would say, “I am one who supplicates, and I request others to pray for me too.””[1]
Dear Islamic brothers! “مرحبا” means: your arrival is spacious and welcome; meaning you have come to us, and there is plenty of room for you here. In Urdu, this is expressed as “khush āmdīd”, and in English as “welcome”. This is a beautiful way of welcoming someone. It was a common practice of our Merciful Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم that he would welcome visitors by saying “مَرْحَبَا”. When delegations from various tribes visited him, he would welcome them warmly and say “مَرْحَبَا”.
Once, 400 people from the tribe of Daws visited him. The Greatest and Final Prophet صصَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم welcomed them by saying: “مَرْحَبًا اَحْسَنُ النَّاسِ وُجُوْہًا وَ اَطْیَبُہُمْ اَفْوَاھًا
