Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
Many miracles occurred through Ahmed ar Rifai Radi Allahu anhu. One of the most widely known is the one that give him the name "Ebul alemeyin" (the Father of Two Banners). In the year 555 A.H., when he was 43 years old, Hz. Rifa'i Radi Allahu anhu went on hajj. He didn't wear the usual traveling clothes of sayyids (the relatives of the Prophet Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam, could be recognized by their clothes). There is a certain section of the Prophet's Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam tomb in Medina that only blood relatives of the Prophet Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam may enter. The guard at the door would not allow him in, as he wanted to know the proof that Ahmed ar Rifai Radi Allahu anhu was related to the Prophet Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam. Ahmed ar Rifai Radi Allahu anhu was sad and yelled towards our Prophet's Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam tomb, "As-salaamu alaykum, ya jeddi (Peace be on you, my ancestor)." Our Prophet Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam answered, saying "Walaykum salaam, ya waladi (And peace be on you, my son)." Muhammad's Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam hand came out of the tomb and our Pir kissed the Prophet's Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam hand. When people saw this miracle, they went into a state of wajd (ecstasy) and began stabbing themselves with their swords and knives. When the ecstasy passed, there were people lying all over the floor covered with blood, so Ahmed ar Rifai Radi Allahu anhu returned them to their normal health. After that, our Pir was famous for possessing this gift.
