Al-Qaul Al-Mahmood - Khalifatullah Mehdi

Al Qaul Al Mahmood
Hzt Syed Ali Yadullahi Makki Badey Miyan RH
fainted on the prayer-mat. The word of her collapse spread. Neighbours thronged to her house and
some near relatives went into her room. They tried to give her medicines. All efforts however, failed.
Meanwhile, Hazrat Amina’s brother, Qayyam-ul-Mulk, who was endowed with divine inspiration
and revelation, arrived on the scene. After seeing his sister’s condition, he divined the truth and told the
people around that she was neither ill nor possessed; there was no need for medication as she was
overawed by divine revelations (tajalliat).
Later, when Hazrat Amina RZ recovered, she told her brother about her vision before fainting.
Qayyam-ul-Mulk asked her not to talk about it. He also told her she would give birth to the Seal of the
Saint-hood (Khatim-ul-Vilayat).
Hazrat Amina RZ conceived towards the end of the year 846 AH (1442 AD). In the fourth month of
pregnancy, she repeatedly heard voices saying: “Mahdi has arrived”.
When the new-born arrived, the light of divine guidance spread and the darkness of ignorance
melted away. At birth, the baby was clean and his tiny hands covered his private parts: when his body
was covered with a cloth, he would withdraw his hands.
No fly would ever sit on his body: he was divine light (nur). When he cried, his voice was sweet,
cheerful and captivating; listeners were attracted.
The idols in the temples of the Imam’s native town, Jaunpur, fell on their faces.
Sheikh Danial of Jaunpur was a God-fearing and devout saint and had access to divine revelations.
On the night of Imam Mahdi’s birth, the Shaikh heard, as did others, a voice reciting the Quranic Verse:
“And say: Truth hath come and falsehood has vanished away. Lo! Falsehood is ever bound to vanish”.
(XVII, 81)[17:81]. The Shaikh thanked Allah for the glad tidings about the vanishing of falsehood. Then he
went into meditation to find out the secret behind the divine voices.
Imam Mahdi’s AS father, Hazrat Syed Abdullah RZ 8 , met and told the Shaikh that, prior to the birth of
the baby, Prophet Muhammad SAS had directed him in a dream to call the child Muhammad. Accordingly,
he had named the child Abul Qasim 9 Syed Muhammad. Hazrat Abdullah RZ said the baby had a bright and
conspicuous forehead, a prominent nose, joined eye-brows and wheatish complexion.
The first words, the Imam spoke were: “Mahdi has come” and “The Truth is revealed”.
On the advice of the Shaikh, the child was admitted, at the age of four, to the Shaikh’s school
which, at the time, had over 1,400 students specializing in Logic, Philosophy and Theology. The Shaikh
treated the Imam AS with great respect to the annoyance of his elder brother, Hazrat Syed Ahmed. The
Shaikh had taken note of the elder brother’s jealousy.
7 Late night prayer.
8 Also the name of Prophet Muhammad’s SAS Father.
9 Also the patronymic appellation (kuniyat) of Prophet Muhammad SAS .
