HAZRAT KHWAJA ABU AHMED ABDAAL CHISTI
(RADI ALLAHU ANHU) IS MUREED AND SUCCESSOR OF KHWAJA ABU ISHAQ SHAAMI CHISTI Radi Allahu anhu
When Hazrat Abu Ishaaq Chisti (Radi Allahu Anhu) used to come and see HAZRAT KHWAJA ABU AHMED ABDAAL CHISTI
the child, he used to say: “From this child, I smell a scent by which this family will become very elevated in status and piety.” It is narrated that once, while Hazrat Abu Ahmed (Radi Allahu Anhu) was about 20 years old, he accompanied his father on a hunting expedition in the nearby mountains. During this expedition, he became separated from his father, and went into a nearby cave. There he saw 40 of the Rijaal-ul-Ghaib, and in the center, was seated Hazrat Abu Ishaaq Chisti (Radi Allahu Anhu). He disembarked from his horse, and fell at the feet of Hazrat Abu Ishaad Chisti (Radi Allahu Anhu) and became his mureed, and joined the company of the Rijaal-ul-Ghaib. He used to remain engrossed in the zikr of “La ilaaha ilallahu Muhammadur Rasoolallah Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam”. He fasted regularly, and used to break his fast once every seven days, eating only 3 morsels of food. He used to complete 2 full recitations of the Qur’an during the day, and 2 during the night, and this was his daily practice. He also used to regularly perform Salaat-ul-Tahajud. After performing Salat-ul-Tahajud, he used to make dua, saying: “O Allah! Have mercy on your servants. Forgive the sinners from amongst the ummah of Rasoolallah (Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam).” Thereafter, a voice used to say: “O Abu Ahmed! We have accepted your duas and we have forgiven 10 000 (ten thousand) sinners due to your dua, and on the Day of Qiyamat, they will enter Paradise with you.” For seven years in succession, he never missed one Salat-ul-Tahajud, and he used to make this same dua every night, and receive this same reply. From this, one can imagine how many received salvation due to the dua of Hazrat Abu Ahmed Abdaal Chisti (Radi Allahu Anhu).
