Khwaja Abdul Wahid Radi Allahu anhu into path of sulook was occasioned by the following episode.He had a slave whom he had exempted from him from night service on the condition of a payment of one dinar per night. Someone complained to him that the slave was stealing the kafans of dead bodies.
One night Abdul Wahid stealthily followed the slave who went into a qabrustaan. Here the slave engaged himself in Namaaz until Fajr time. Then he made dua and petitioned Allah Ta’ala:
“O my Great Master! Give the wage of my small master.”
A dinar miraculously appeared and settled in the slave’s hand. While the slave left, Abdul Wahid remained concealed.
After the departure of the slave, Hadhrat Abdul Wahid made wudhu, performed two raka’ts Salaatut Taubah and repented for the baseless suspicion he had entertained of his slave. He resolved to set the slave free.
A further astonishing revelation shocked Hadhrat Abdul Wahid in the morning. He was lost, searching for the direction of his home. When he enquired from the people around, they informed him that the place of his home (mentioned by him) was a two-year journey away. He sat down in bewilderment. A passing horse-rider soon stopped and asked: ‘Abdul Wahid, why are you sitting here?’ Abdul Wahid narrated his story. The horse-rider said:
“Don’t leave. With a swift horse it will take two years to reach your home. The same slave will come at night. Go with him.”
Abdul Wahid was left no option, but to wait.
During the night the slave appeared with a variety of food. He presented the food to Abdul Wahid, saying: “Eat and don’t ever do so again.” While Hadhrat Abdul Wahid was eating, the slave engaged himself in ibaadat. In the morning as usual, the dinar arrived. He presented both dinars to his master who walked only a few steps with the slave and miraculously reached home. The slave said: ‘You had intended to free me.’ Hadhrat Abdul Wahid immediately emancipated the slave who expressed his profound gratitude. In return for his freedom the slave gave Hadhrat Abdul Wahid a few pebbles and disappeared.
In the morning he discovered that the ‘pebbles’ were priceless gems which he sold and distributed the money to the fuqara. He thus commenced the journey of renouncing the world.
Hazrat Sayyedina Khwaja Abdul Wahid Radi Allahu anhu are the fourth Imam of Silsilah Aaliya Chistiya.
