Once Saqti Sirri(R.A) happened to
pass through a street of town. His attention was shifted to see a heavily dunk
person of his town lying prostrate with his dust clad clothes and sand occluded
face with scratches on his body caused by the hard stony path Sirri(R.A) came
near him and turned him, to his utter surprise he heard the person whispering,
remembering ALLAH ALLAH from movement of his lips even in this drunk condition.
Sirri(R.A) some how managed to shift the drunk, washed his mouth as well as his
body and clothes he murmured with himself that this man in this bad state is
not aware what a pious and divine name he is uttering from the filthy foul smelling
mouth.
When the person retained his consciousness he was told by the people about
the incident and informed him that Saqti(R.A) washed his face and cleaned him
The man held high esteem and regards for revered Sirri(R.A), therefore he
felt highly ashamed, full of sorrow began to curse himself putting his head
down, started shedding tears and weeping for a long time. Then, he said towards
directing his soul – o, be ashamed, shameful soule do you know Sirri(R.A) have
seen you in this state. Fearing from thought, repented for ever for this
misdeed. He then reconciled himself for the refinement
On the same night Sirri(R.A) was reported to have listen in his dream the
divine voice stated oh, Sirri(R.A) you have washed the mouth of that man for my
sake (Allah) now i have washed his mouth for your sake. It means that Allah
made him at par with Sirri(R.A) in terms of devotion
After a few hours Sirri(R.A) left for masjid to offer late night prayer
(Tahajjud). To his extreme surprise and astonishment he saw the same person
engrossed in thajjud salaat with full devotion as if keeping in unison with God
with half closed eyes
When both performed and completed salaat, Sirri(R.A) asked him as to how
this revolution came in him. Quickly the man replied pointing towards Sirri(R.A)
saying – Oh Sirri(R.A) Why you are
asking me this question, while The reality is that you, your self have already
been apprised by the Great Allah about the truth
By the grace of God and strong bonding with Him he was completely changed
and it is easy and possible for Almighty to turn evil or devil in to pious and righteous
soul that leads to become His wali. Life of such people may undergo salvation
and can act as beacon for others to follow towards success in the court of
ALMIGHTY ALLAH.
