The Blessing of Association with Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Aazam RadiAllahu Anhu

It was once asked in the blessed court of Sayyiduna Ghaus-e-Aazam RadiAllahu Anhu:

"If someone claims to be connected to you, though he has neither pledged allegiance at your blessed hand nor worn your spiritual cloak, will he still be considered among your disciples?"

He RadiAllahu Anhu replied:

"Whoever associates himself with me and records his name among my followers, Allah Almighty will accept him. And if he happens to be upon a disliked path, Allah Almighty will grant him the ability to repent. He is indeed counted among my disciples. Moreover, my Rabb has promised me that He will admit my true disciples into Paradise, my fellow followers of the faith, and every single person who loves me."
