Some
other miracles .
1.
Says Hazart Qutubuddin Bakhtiyar Kaki (R.A),
" I never saw Hazart Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (R.A)
angry with anyone as long as I remained with him.
One day, Hazart Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (R.A) accompanied
me and a servant Shaikh Ali were going out. Suddenly
a man caught hold Shaikh Ali of his clothes and
started abusing him. Hazart Khwaja Gharib Nawaz
(R.A) asked the reason of the dispute. He said
" Shaikh Ali is debtor and is not repaying the
amount given to him." Khwaja Sahib (R.A) said,
"Leave him. He will repay your debt." But the
man again insisted. So Khwaja Sahib (R.A) got
angry and he spread his shawl on the ground and
asked to take from the shawl amount equal to the
debt and warned not to take more than debt. The
man picked up the money certainly more than the
debt and soon his hand dried up. So he started
crying and asked for mercy. Khwaja Sahib (R.A)
pardoned him and his hand recovered. The man immediately
became the disciple of Khwaja Sahib (R.A).
2.
It said that once Khwaja Sahib (R.A) was passing
through a Jungle, some atheist dacoits
came in his way. They used to snatch belonging
of travelers and if the traveler was a Muslim
they used to kill him as well. When these decoits
faced Khwaja Sahib (R.A), there happened a miracle,
The band of decoits who had been engaged in looting
and killing the people, started trembling with
fear, and fell on the feet of Khwaja Sahib (R.A)
and said, "we are your slaves. Be kind to us"
when they repented Khwaja Sahib (R.A) made them
recite Kalima and thus they accepted Islam. Khwaja
Sahib (R.A) forbade them for looting and murdering
in the name of the Almighty.
3 . One day, a weeping old woman came to
him and said, "Huzoor, the ruler had killed my
innocent son. For God sake, help me."
Hearing the woman, Khwaja Sahib (R.A) was moved
very much. He with his sceptre in his hand accompanied
the old woman. Many followers and disciples also
accompanied him. He arrived at the dead body of
the boy, stood there silently and gazed at it
for quite a long time. Then he stepped towards
the body, put his hand on It said, " O boy, if
you have been killed innocent, come to life by
the grace of ALLAH." He just completed his sentence,
the boy was alive. Khwaja Sahib (R.A) further
said, " The man should be so close to ALLAH that
his prayers are to accepted without any delay.
If it is not, then he is not a Faqir."
4. Though Khwaja Sahib (R.A) had no means of income
but he set up a langerkhana ( alms- house).
The food was so abundant there that all the poor
and needy of the city were fed with it. It is
said that he directed the Chief of the alms- house
to demand as much money as needed for the langarkana.
The Chief used to come to him daily in the morning.
On his arrival Khwaja Sahib (R.A) used to unfold
the corner of his Musalla and asked him to take
whatever required from the hidden treasury. He
himself used to keep fast and broke it with the
dried barley bread, weighing not more than five
misqal (few grms)
5. A man came to him with the bad intention of
killing him and showed great faith and
loyalty to Khwaja Sahib (R.A). But his intention
was revealed to Khwaja Sahib (R.A). So he said,
"I am here, Do whatever you desire." Hearing this,
the man started trembling and with great humbleness
he told that it was not his own desire. Some other
man wanted him to commit this heinous crime. Then
he took out the dagger, and placed it before Khwaja
Sahib (R.A) and asked for punishment. But Khwaja
Sahib (R.A) said, " Revenge is not the practice
of the Saints. Well, I pardon you." The man fell
into the feet of Khwaja Sahib (R.A), repented,
accepted Islam and became a disciple.
6. It is said, during the period of Khwaja Sahib
(R.A) stay in Ajmer, the people from far and nearby,
who went for the pilgrimage of Haj, on
return used to tell that they have seen Khwaja
Sahib (R.A) circumambulating the Khana-e-Kaaba;
while in fact Khwaja Sahib (R.A) never want for
Haj after his stay in Ajmer.
7. Once, Hazrat
Khwaja Qutubuddin Bakhtiyar Kaki (R.A)
was meeting with the king in the fort of Delhi.
The other officials were also present there. Suddenly
a characterless woman came there and asked justice.
She requested the king to get her married, since
she was under the state of mental pain. The king
asked her to whom she wanted to be married, and
which sort of agony she is facing, she said, "The
fellow who is very close to you and called himself
as Qutub has raped me. As a result I am pregnant.
" Hearing the entire episode, all those present
were shocked . They pulled down their heads with
shame. Qutub Sahib (R.A) was also ashamed . He
could do nothing but he turned his face towards
Ajmer and called Khwaja Sahib (R.A) for his help.
As and when Khwaja Sahib (R.A) heard cry of his
dear disciple for help, he immediately reached
there. He asked Qutub Sahib (R.A), "What is the
matter ? Qutub Sahab (R.A) could not speak a single
word and tears started rolling out of his eyes.
The episode was revealed to Khwaja Sahib (R.A).
All this made Khwaja Sahib (R.A) very much angry.
He turned to the crooked lady and said " O child,
inside womb, your mother has alleged that Qutab
Sahib (R.A) is your father. Tell whether it is
true ?"
There was a clear voice, from inside the womb,
heard by all present there. The child said, The
statement is all wrong. The woman is a prostitute
and has been sent by the enemies of Qutub Sahib
(R.A) to insult and defame him." All the people
were much surprised on hearing all about. The
woman himself admitted her false allegation.
Khwaja Sahib (R.A) said, Only Allah can award
honour and repute." And then he returned. Except
Hazrat Khwaja Qutubuddin Bakhtiyar Kaki (R.A),
all were much surprised on arrival and disappearance
of Khwaja Sahib (R.A).
8. It is said that one day, one of his disciples
came to him. Khwaja Sahib (R.A) was busy in offering
prayers. When he finished his prayers and turned
to the disciple the disciple said "huzoor the
ruler of the city has ordered me to exile
without any fault of mine. So I am in great trouble."
Khwaja Sahib (R.A) kept silence for some time,
then said, " Don’t worry he has been punished.
"When the disciple returned to the city, he heard
the news that the ruler fell from the back of
the horse and has died.
9. One day, Khwaja Sahib (R.A) was sitting near
Anna Sager, A shepherd with some calves
passed by, He said to the shepherd, " Dear give
me some milk. "The Shepherd took it as a joke
and said " Baba, they are calves and do not give
milk. Khwaja Sahib (R.A) smiled and pointed towards
a female calf and said, "Brother, I will take
her milk." When the shepherd laughed, Khwaja Sahib
(R.A) insisted, "Just see". The shepherd was very
much surprised when he saw that her udders had
become large and were full of milk. So he milked
the calf which was enough for 40 persons. Seeing
it, the Shepherd fell into the feet of Khwaja
Sahib (R.A) and became his disciple.
10. One day, Khwaja Sahib (R.A) was sitting among
the disciples and preaching. Suddenly he
saw something on his right side. He stood up as
paying respect to somebody. It happened again
and again as and when he glanced towards right
side. When the assembly was over and people left
away, one of his servants asked the reason as
to why he had been standing up repeatedly on having
a look at right side. Khwaja Sahib (R.A) said,
"The Mazar of my Peer-o-Murshid is located in
that direction. As I looked towards that direction,
the Mazar came before my eyes, so I stood up to
offer respect."
11. It was the assembly of the
saints. Everyone of them agreed to show
his miracles. Thus Khwaja Usman Harooni (R.A)
turned his Musallah and took out some pieces of
gold and gave them to a Durvesh and asked him
to bring some sweets for all present their. Shaikh
Ohuddin Kirmani (R.A) touched a piece of wood
and it turned into gold.
When Khwaja Usman Harooni (R.A) insisted, Khwaja
Gharib Nawaz (R.A) knew through Divine inspiration
that one of the persons of the present assembly
is hungry but could not tell others because of
modesty . Thus Khwaja Sahib (R.A) took out four
barley Rotis and put them before the person.
