He was mureed of Hadrat Ache Mia (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anho) and attained Khilafat

HIS EXCELLENCE:
Hadrat Aale Rasool Marehrwi (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anho) is from amongst the great
Mashaikh of the 13th Century. He served the Ahle Sunnat Wa Jamaat with great
sincerity and dedication. His was very kind and generous and always showed love
towards the needy and the orphans.His character and habits were a beautiful
example of the Sunnat of the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam). He always
performed his Namaaz in congregation at the Musjid and not a single Tahajjud
Salaah of his was ever made Qaza. He was always willing to help others and never
revealed the wrongs of people in the presence of others. He would only prescribe
those duas, which are from the Hadith of the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi
wasallam). He always dressed in the garb of Ulama. He always presented himself
in the Mehfil-e-Meelad, Naat Mehfil, lectures, Qira'at Mehfils etc. He never
compromised the Shariah.
He was so kind, that whenever anyone asked for money, he would never refuse
them. He never performed Imaamat. He always remained a muqtadi. One Maulana
Ainul Hassan Saahib, who was a Saahib-e-Kashf, arrived in Marehrah Shareef. He
joined the Namaaz and then left in between Salaah, breaking his Namaaz. After
Namaaz, he looked at the Haafiz Saahib who was the Imam and said, "Haafiz Saahib,
there is no need to go to the market place and buy groceries whilst in Namaaz.
How far do you expect us to go with you?"
In other words, he knew of what the Imam was thinking during Salaah. When Hadrat
heard Mufti Saahibs, question to the Imam, he became very upset and said, "It is
better you lead the Namaaz, rather than following Haafiz Saahib everywhere. You
yourself are not fully in Salaah, otherwise how would you be able to know what
is in the hearts of other."
HIS KARAAMATS:
There are various karaamats of Hadrat, but only a few are being quoted.
Philosophy of Me'raj: Once, one of Hadrat's mureeds began to wonder how
Rasoolullah (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam) went for Meraj in such a short space
of time. During this time, Hadrat was performing wudhu. Hadrat asked him to go
into his room and bring him a towel.
The man went into the room. He saw a beautiful orchard outside the house. He
could not help but to go into the orchard. Whilst walking in the garden, he
found himself in a huge city. In the city, he decided to start a business. He
married in the same city, and even had children. He lived there for twenty
years.
Suddenly, he heard the voice of Hadrat Aale Rasool Marehrwi (Radi Allahu Ta’ala
Anho), he found himself at the window once again. He rushed in and took the
towel to Hadrat. When he went to Hadrat, he saw that he had just made wudhu and
the water was still on his blessed face and his hands were still wet.
The mureed was astonished by what had happened to him. Hadrat smiled at him and
said, "Mia, You went there and lived for twenty years and even married, and
here, the water of my wudhu has not dried up as yet. I am sure that you now
understand the Me'raj of the Prophet (Sall Allaho alaihi wasallam)."
SubhaanALLAH!
Present during Hajj: Once Haji Raza Khan Saahib Marehrwi went for Hajj, and
after Hajj, he presented himself before Maulana Muhammad Ismail Saahib Muhajir,
so that he may become his mureed.
The respected Maulana said, "Why did you not take bai'at from Hadrat Shah Aale
Rasool (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anho). He was with me a little while ago."
When Haji Sahib returned to Marehrah Shareef, he narrated this incident to
Hadrat Aale Rasool (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anho). Hadrat said, "He must have been
mistaken. I did not even leave the Khanqah to go anywhere."
HIS FAMILY:
He married Nisaar Faatima (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anho), the daughter of Sayyid
Muntakhib Hussain Bilgiraami. Almighty Allah blessed him with two sons and three
daughters. Their names were, Sayyid Shah Zahoor Hussain Bare Mia, Sayyid Shah

GEMS OF WISDOM:
Some of Hadrat's words of wisdom are being presented for the saked of spiritual
inspiration:
1. Always respect the Ulama Fuqara and the Masakeen with love an honor. Present
whatever you have before them. If they accept it, then all is well, and if they
do not accept it, then there is no liability on your behalf.
2. The outer appearance of a Darvesh should be that of Hadrat Imam Azam Abu
Hanifa (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anho) and his inner appearance should be like that of
Hadrat Hussain bin Mansoor Hallaaj (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anho).
3. Before his wisaal, people asked for his final advise, and he said, "Obey
Allah and Obey His Rasool (Peace and Blessings be with Him) This is all you need
and the salvation for this world and the hereafter is present in it.
