country, he will get some benefits. But if he goes to Medina-i<br />

munawwara, Rasûlullah’s soul will be aware of his journey and<br />

of the hardships he will be suffering on the way. When he gets<br />

there and sees Rasûlullah’s Rawda-i pâk, his tawajjuh will<br />

become perfect. He will get so many benefits that the benefits<br />

he received when he was in his country will prove to be nothing<br />

in comparison to them. These facts which we are stating now<br />

the Awliyâ-i-kirâm perceive with their hearts.<br />

Celâleddîn-i Rûmî [1] (quddîsa sirruh) said on his deathbed.<br />

“Don’t be sorry when I am dead! Be with me and think of me<br />

wherever you are! I shall come to your rescue and help you. My<br />

soul has two kinds of attachments in this world; the first one is<br />

its attachment to my body, and the second is its attachment to<br />

you. When my soul leaves my body by the grace of Allâhu<br />

ta’âlâ, its attachment to the body will also extend to you.<br />

Abdullah-i Dahlawî [2] , (qaddas Allâhu ta’âlâ sirrahul’azîz),<br />

one of the greatest Awliyâ, says in the eighth letter of his book<br />

Maktubât, “Strive to increase the nisbat [attachment] in your<br />

heart! By doing much dhikr, that is, repeating (with your heart)<br />

the name of Allah and the Kalima-i tehlîl very often, and<br />

sometimes by saying the salawât or reading the Qur’ân alkerîm,<br />

try to approach Allâhu ta’âlâ! If you feel any languor<br />

during these efforts, turn your tawwajuh to this faqîr’s soul [the<br />

great savant means himself]! Or, visit Mirzâ Mazhar-i-Jân-i<br />

Jânân’s grave! [2] Paying tawajjuh to him causes great progress.<br />

The benefits to be received from him will be many more than<br />

those to be received from a thousand living ones. Also,<br />

meditate over Gaws-us saqalayn Abdulqâdir Geilânî [3] and<br />

[1] Celâleddîn Muhammad Rûmî ‘rahmatullâhi ta’âlâ ’aleyh’ (604 [1207],<br />

Belikh, Syria - 672 [1273], Konya, Turkey) was a great Walî in the path<br />

of Tasawwuf termed Qâdirî.<br />

[2] Ghulâm-i-Alî Abdullah Dahlawî ‘rahmatullâhi ta’âlâ ’aleyh’ (1158 [1745],<br />

Punjab, India - 1240 [1824], Delhi), a great Walî and an expert in<br />

Tasawwuf.<br />

[2] Shams-ud-dîn Habîbullah Mazhar-i-Jân-i-Jânân ‘rahmatullâhi ta’âlâ<br />

’aleyh’ (1111 [1698] - 1195 [1781], Delhi, India) was a great Walî and<br />

an important link in the chain of Awliyâ termed Silsila-i-aliyya. He was<br />

the educater and master of Sayyid Abdullah Dahlawî, (above).<br />

[3] Muhyiddîn Abû Muhammad bin Abû Sâlih bin Mûsâ Jengî Dost<br />

Abdulgâdîr-i-Geilânî ‘rahmatullâh ta’âlâ ’aleyh’ (471 [1078], Geilan, Iran<br />

- 561 [1166], Baghdâd, Iraq) a great Walî and a great expert in<br />
