The Last Maghrib Salaah of Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam


Hazrat Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) passed from this mundane world into the hereafter on a night that was very cold. Those who wrote on his life have mentioned that he had become very weak in the eyes of the world and could barely wake up from his bed but he was saying, ‘Arrange for me to make wudhu. The khaadims who were near him requested him to make tayammum as it was extremely cold. Hazrat refuses their requests and says, ‘Let me make wudhu’ one person takes the jug and tries to pour water for Hazrat to make wudhu. He refuses and takes the jug saying, ‘I want to make wudhu with my own hands’ In this condition he stood and read his Maghrib Namaaz.  People say, ‘Huzoor! Sit and make Namaaz’ but even though he had become so ill and was very weak but he was not prepared to sit and read his Namaaz. Allah! Allah! How much he loved to make Ibaadat and he had received such steadfastness from the Court of Allah the Compassionate that there is not example of this that can be seen nowadays.  Maulvi Shah Muhammad Raza Qadri Noori who spend a few years in the khidmat of Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) says, “During the time when Hazrat had become very ill, he had become so weak due to illness that leave alone walking, he felt it difficult to even stand. Four or five of us would hold Hazrat and walk him to the Musjid.  We would fill water in the lota and leave it for him to make wudhu. Then, we would hold him again and get him to sit in the saff, then the Iqaamat would commence. The moment the Mukabbir would come to ‘Hayya alas Salaah’ Hazrat would start to get up so swiftly by himself without the help of anyone and he would read his Namaaz without any difficulty.  After Namaaz people would take bai’at (Oath of Allegiance) and then he would give some advice. After this, we would have to hold him and walk him back home." This is the condition of those who sacrifice everything for the pleasure of Allah and His Rasool (Sall Allaho Alaihi wa Sallam). When they are in the remembrance of their Creator and in the Love of the Holy Prophet (Sall Allaho Alaihi wa Sallam), they forget all their hardships and pains.

It is for this reason that Imam-e-Ishq-o-Mohabbat Aala Hazrat (radi Allahu anhu) said:

Un ke Nisaar Koyi kaise Hi Ranj Me Ho Jub Yaad Aa Gaye Hain Sub Ghum Bhula Diye Hain.
