Incidents from the lives of our Elders

[shakibbhat]

Hadhrat Madani (r.alaih) and Moulana Muhammad Ilyas (R.alaih)
Hadhrat Aqdas Mufti Mehmood Sahib (r.alaih) mentioned, "Hadhrat Madani (r.alaih) was invited to deliver a lecture in one area. Another party of that area held a gathering on the same date and invited Hadhrat Moulana Ilyaas Saheb (r.alaih) to gove a talk. Both saints agreed to attend and neither of them knew that a separate gathering was to be held there on the same day. Hence, both the Elders set off (for the particular place) on the appointed day.

When Moulana Muhammad Ilyaas Saheb (r.alaih) arrived, he came to know that Hadhrat Madani (r.alaih) was to give a talk in another part of town. He made the announcement that the Ijtima was cancelled because Hadhrat Moulana Husain Ahmed Madani Sahib (r.alaih) is to give a lecture at such and such a venue. All brothers should attend Hadhrat Madani’s lecture. Hadhrat Moulana Ilyas Sahed (r.alaih) himself proceeded on foot with the crowd to participate in the other gathering.

On the other side, Hadhrat Madani (r.alaih) arrived and came to know of the Ijtima. He addressed his gathering and told them, “Because there is an Ijtima today in another part of this town, wherein Moulana Muhammad Ilyaas Sahib (r.alaih) will be giving a bayaan, therefore this gathering is dismissed, all should participate in the Ijtima.” Hadhrat Madani (r.alaih) himself set off with the people to attend the Ijtima. Reaching the Ijtima, they found that it had been cancelled. The people from the Ijtima reached the Jalsa and found it to be cancelled also. Neither the Ijtima took place nor was the Jalsa held.

This is the divine words:
“They give preference to others over themselves”

Translated from urdu.

Hadhrath Moulana muzaffar husain kandhalvi RA is among the elders of Deoband. He was student of Hadrath Shah Mohammed Ishaaq RA. He studied along with Shah Abdul Ghani Muhaddas dahalvi. Once, he met an old person who couldn’t walk as he was carrying heavey load. Moulana muzaffar Hussain RA took the luggage from the old man and carried it to the destined place. The old man asked “where do you live”, moulana replied “brother I live in Kandhla”, he said “Great vali Moulvi muzaffar hussain lives there” and praised him. Moulana replied “there is nothing special in him, yes, he offers salah”, he said “ gentleman, you used those words for the pious person”, moulana replied “I am correct”, hearing this the old man got wild. Meantime the person who knew Moulana joined and said “He is moulana Muaffar Hussain”, hearing this the old man hugged moulana and cried.

Once Shaikh Ismaeel Shaheed rahmatullah alaih delivered a speech at the Jami' Masjid, Delhi, and spoke for about two hours.
After having delivered the speech, he was descending the steps of the masjid when someone came running to the masjid and asked him, if the speech of Shaikh Ismaeel was over. He replied, ' yes brother, it is over. '
He lamented over the news and said that he had come from very far to listen to him.
' From where have you come? ' asked the Shaikh.
The man gave the name of his village in reply and said, ' I had only come to listen to him. How sad that my effort is useless and his speech is over. '

The shaikh said, ' Don't worry, I am Ismaeel himself. ' he told te man to sit on the steps, sat with him, and said that he would repeat the speech for him. He repeated every word of the speech for him there on the steps.
Someone then remarked to him, ' How amazing, you repeated the entire speech for the sake of just one man. '

Shaikh Ismaeel Shaheed replied, ' I had delievered the first speech also for just One ( Allah) and i did it the second time for just One. The gathering had no reality. I had spoken for Allah the first time and i did it again for Him Alone. '

lemme add to it.
Sheikhul Hind (Rahmatullahi Alayhi) was arrested and taken to Jeddah and thereafter taken to Malta. Hadhrat Maulana Hussein Madani (Rahmatullahi Alayhi) had so much love and reliance upon his ustadh that he was prepared to sacrifice his comfort teaching in Madinah Munawwarah and handed himself over voluntarily to be arrested in order to be with his ustadh so that he could make the khidmat of Sheikhul Hind (Rahmatullahi Alayhi).
He remained with Sheikhul Hind in Malta for approximately three years.
With such a sacrifice how could such a person not get barakah in his uloom?
