Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
Once a thief entered the house of Shaikh Abd al-Qaadir al-Jilani ( Radi Allahu anhu) with the intention of stealing. On entering the house, he became blind and could not see anything. He was unable to find his way out of the house and he eventually sat in one corner of the house. In the morning, he was caught and brought before Shaikh Abd al-Qaadir al-Jilani ( Radi Allahu anhu) . When Al-Ghawth al-A¡¦zam ( Radi Allahu anhu). saw him, he placed his blessed hands on the thief¡¦s eyes. The thief¡¦s eyesight was immediately restored. Shaikh Abd al-Qaadir al-Jilani ( Radi Allahu anhu) then said, ¡§He came to steal materialistic (worldly wealth), I will bless him with such a treasure that it will remain with him forever.¡¨
On saying these words, Shaikh Abd al-Qaadir al-Jilani ( Radi Allahu anhu) placed his blessed sight on the thief once and elevated him to the status of Wilayat (Sainthood). It was also during this time that one of the appointed Abdaals had passed away. Shaikh Abd al-Qaadir al-Jilani ( Radi Allahu anhu)took the thief, now a Wali, and sent him out as the replacement for the Abdaal that had passed away. Subhan-Allah!
