Birth.
Hazrat Syed Sham Alam Hussini father of Hazrat Syed Shah Chanda Hussaini came from North India to Deccan (South India) and he was settled down in Gogi village at the time of Sultan Adil Shah of Bejapur and at that time he was born there.
Childhood.
From his childhood there were indications of light of valayat (saintliness) on his face and he was very smart and beautiful gentleman and there were many miracles which were done by him since his childhood period and since at the age of 7 or 8 years he was busy in engrossment and his miracles and kashaf (revelation) and these details are in large number.
An event of his childhood.
Once his father has asked him to bring water for ablution so he has brought water for him and by chance a crow came there and drank water and went away so his father has told him that the crow has drunk water from the pot so change the water so he told that is this possible that the crow which will drink the water and will be alive till now.? When he said these words then the crown fell down on the ground and died at once there. So his father told him as the condition of jalal (majestic) has reached at its heights in you so now you leave with us and so you are permitted to go some other place from here.
Sincerity.
At the time of the above miracle he was very young but due to his sincerity he has started the preparation of the journey and visited his father at the time of his departure and he sought his father’s final advises in this matter. His father after giving some important instructions and has awarded him caliphate and has asked to makes a pledge (Bay'ah) (pledging spiritual allegiance) and gave him toddy fruit and has instructed him that during his journey at the place of his stay to bury the toddy fruit in the ground and to perform ablution on it and if there be will branches from the ground in the morning then he should settle down in that area for the teaching and preaching work of Islam otherwise he should proceed further and continue his journey in the name of Allah.
The effect of Allah Akbar.
When he left Gogi village there was rainy season and he was reached river Krishna at the night time and at that time there was a great storm on the river and there were no sources to cross the big river of Deccan (South India) so for this reason he recited Allah Akber and for this reason the water of the river was stopped for some time and so while thanking Allah he has crossed the river safely without any problem and difficulty.
