HIS FAMILY
HISTORY: Hazrat Jamaalul Awliyah’s forefathers came to India from Arabia and Rome, in the time of Sultan Shamsudeen Al
Tamish, for Jihad. They joined in a battle with Sultan Shamsudeen Al Tamish and
then on their return, they stayed at Sultanpur. When the Empire in Delhi started to crumble,
Hazrat Shah Hai’atullah, the father of Hazrat Makhdoom Saalaar Budh, took Shah
Sharqi with him and went in battle against Rajah Dawman and was victorious
against him. He captured his capital and changed the name from Aatihaa to
Fatehpur. It is there that Hazrat Hai’atullah then lived.
Hazrat
Makhdoom Saalaar Budh: During this time, Hazrat Makhdoom Saalaar Budh was in
Jaunpur attaining knowledge of Deen. After qualifying, he took bai’at at the
hands of Hazrat Shah Bahaudeen Nathu Jaunpuri (radi Allaho anhu) and remained
in Jaunpur. His Peer later blessed him with Khilaafat. After this, he took
seven hundred of his disciples and well wishers with him and journeyed home.
His intention was to first travel to Delhi,
where he would make Ziyaarat of all the Mazaars of the Awliyah Allah. He then
intended to return home.
On his way,
he passed through an area that was under the reign of Raja Argul, who had much
hatred for Muslims. It was the habit of Hazrat to stop at the time of Namaaz
and immediately pray his Namaaz with Jamaat. It was the time for Zohar Salaah,
so Hazrat stopped and performed the Zohr Salaah with Jamaat. After Salaah he
was informed that Raja Argul had sent an army of thirty thousand with the
intention of making him shaheed. He commanded those with him to read their
Sunnats swiftly and to prepare to confront the enemy of Allah. A battle took
place and the fighting continued until Zohar Salaah the next day.
In the end,
Argul was killed, and his son accepted Islam at the hands of Hazrat Makhdoom
Saalaar Budh (radi Allaho anhu). Hazrat kept his name Bijli Khan. He stayed
there for another day and a half after the battle and then said, “We shall stay for another two or three days,
and then travel to Delhi."
That night,
he was blessed with seeing the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam) in his
dream. The Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam) said,
“You should
not go anywhere. You must clear this jungle and tart to live here. For
centuries people will attain guidance from your children concerning
Deen-e-Islam and Great Awliyah Allah will pass in your descendants.”
Hazrat then
cleared the jungle and started to live there. He constructed a Khanqah, Musjid
and a house in the cleared area. Bijli Khan constructed a tower and a Musjid,
which stands even up to this day in Jahanabaad. Even the date of its
construction is engraved on the building. Bijli Khan had become mureed of
Hazrat and thus decided to live in the same newly built town. Due to his
efforts, the town began to grow in size and in population.
When the
King Shah Jehaan became mureed in the same family, he called his place, which
was next to Kora Shareef, Shah Jahanabaad, which today is known as Jahanabaad.
It is for this reason that Kora is called Kora Jahanabaad. Through the glad
tidings of the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam), the jungle had now become
Kora Jahanabaad Shareef. When Hazrat
Aurangzeb (radi Allaho anhu) was going on a battle, he passed through Kora
Jahanabaad. He got off his horse out of respect and walked across the town by
foot.
Six hundred
Ulama from the city went to welcome the pious King. When Hazrat Alamgir
Aurangzeb heard that all six hundred Ulama were from one family, and from the
descendants of Hazrat Saalaar Budh (radi Allaho anhu), he was amazed. He stayed
there for five days with Mullah Luftullah, the teacher of Mulla Jiwan (radi
Allaho anhu).
He took his
blessings and then continued towards the Battle
to which he was going. He fought this battle 10 miles away from Kora Jahanabaad
at a place called Kajhwa against his brother Shujaa’. During the night, many of
his soldiers changed sides, and joined Shujaa’. Hazrat Alamgir (radi Allaho
anhu) was only left with two thousand soldiers, but through the dua of the
Saints of Kora Jahanabaad, he won the battle. On his return, he stayed at
Jahanabaad for two weeks. During this time, Jahanabaad was famously known as
Daarul Fudhla. Hazrat Aurangzeb changed its name to Daarul Awliyah.
SHEIKH-E-TARIQAT:
He was first mureed of his father and then later, his father gave him into the
care of Hazrat Shah Qaazi Ziaudeen Sheikh Jiya (radi Allaho anhu). He was
blessed with the Khilaafat from his father and from Hazrat Sheikh Jiya (radi
Allaho anhu).
HIS EXCELLENCE:
There are numerous incidents relating to his excellence, and his vast knowledge
and wisdom. He was a Wali-e-Kaamil. He
made khidmat of the Faqeers from the age of seven years. He spent twenty years
attaining Ilm-e-Deen. He attained knowledge through the souls of Hazrat Ghaus-e-Azam
Jilani; Khwaja Baha’udeen Naqshbandi and Hazrat Shah Badi’udeen Qutb-e-Madaar
(ridwaanullahi ta aala alaihim ajmaeen). He also gained the blessings from
various other Awliyah.
When he was
very young, he was very soft and timid. The children at the madressa often
called him “Jamaalul Awliyah” He became weary of them and once ran away from
madrassa. When Hazrat Sheikh Jiya (radi Allaho anhu) saw him missing from the
madrassa he enquired from the other students, and they said that he had not
come to madrassa for three days. Hazrat Sheikh Jiya asked all the students to
look for him, and he too went out in search of Hazrat Jamaalul Awliyah (radi
Allaho anhu).
After some
time, he found him in the jungle sitting in a cave. He went close to him, and
saw him weeping. He asked his reason for crying and Hazrat said that the
children mocked him and called him Jamaalul Awliyah.
Hazrat
Sheikh Jiya then said, “Come with me. I have now made you Jamaalul Awliyah.”
Hazrat then gave his Kurta to him as a gift. From this day on, his wilaayat
became evident and the students were amazed at his intelligence and wisdom.
