ANCESTORS & PARENTS

Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus belongs to an Arain family. His geneology is as follows:

Hazrat Saleem Al-Raees’ son Hazrat Habib Al-Raee (R.A.) was a saint of highest cadre who got beneficence from Hazrat Salman Farsi Razi Allah Anhu. Hazrat Data Ganj Bakhsh (R.A.) has also mentioned about Hazrat Habib Al-Raee in his book “Kashf-al-Mahjoob”. Hazrat Habib al-Raee’s son Shaikh Haleem Raee came to India from Arab with Mohammad Bin Qasim to preach Islam in the Sub-continent. He and his family got settled in India and their progeny was afterwards known by the name “Raeen” which changed to Arain with the passage of time.

Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus’ father, Abdul Hameed (R.A.) strictly followed Shariat and never delayed his optional prayers let alone the compulsory ones. He used to spend his nights reciting the Holy Quran or praying additional prayers while spending the day in the Zikr of Allah. The mother of Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus was an ardent lover of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) and a true devotee of the Ahl-e-Bait and Ghaus-ul-Azam Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani Razi Allahu Anhu. She used to arrange gatherings to most of the holy events every year.

BIRTH & CHILDHOOD

The holy birth of Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus took place on Wednesday, 19th August 1959 (14 Safar, 1379 Hijri) at 4:30 am in Bakhshan Khan Tehsil Chishtian, Bahawalnagar District, Pakistan. The sacred essence of the child was evident as his mother did not feel any problem while bearing him which is very rare for any mother. Once, a faqeer saw his celestial forehead and told his mother, “Allah has chosen him and written a special destiny on his forehead. He will spend his whole life under the supervision of Hazrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani Razi Allah Anhu who will prepare him and train him spiritually for a very special purpose”. On another occasion, he said, “Your son is a Leader. Wherever he would go, he will lead”.

EDUCATION & PRACTICAL LIFE

Since childhood, Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus was anxious about knowing the reality of Islam and spent most of his free time in pondering over the signs of Allah and the message of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), as well as reading religious books. He passed his Matriculation Exams from Multan Board in 1978. In 1983, he did his graduation with First Division from Baha-ud-Din Zikriya University, Multan. In April 1985, Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus began his career with a government job, due to which he had to shift to Lahore. He continued this job with devotion and hardwork for 28 years and then got retirement in Decemeber 2013.

SEARCH FOR DIVINE TRUTH

Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah was only 37 years of age, when he left the worldly matters of life and absorbed himself completely in his relation with Allah. This accelerated his spiritual journey and he got connected esoterically to Ghaus-ul-Azam Hazrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani Razi Allah Anhu who guided him and enriched him with spiritual benevolence. When Hazrat Ghaus-ul-Azam Razi Allah Anhu completed his spiritual education he was spiritually ordered by Hazrat Ghaus-ul-Azam to find a Murshid Kamil (Perfect Spiritual Guide). Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr’s search at last met its destination when on the 12th of April 1998, he found his Murshid, Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) who lived in Jhang. Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr took the oath of allegiance on his sacred hands and spent each moment of his life rendering all his physical and mental abilities, as well as his wealth in serving his Murshid and supporting him in his mission of spreading Faqr.

SPIRITUAL JOURNEY

Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus annihilated in the essence of his Murshid and became his true reflection. His Murshid tested him several times. About the spiritual and inward trials, only the seeker and Allah know but outwardly he became the centre of attention of his Murshid. Whatever duty was assigned to him by his Murshid, he obediently performed it.
Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr took upon the duty of making clothes for his Murshid for all seasons and all the events such as Eid and Urs of Spiritual Guides. He did this duty throughout the life of his Murshid with such devotion that he forgot to get his own dresses prepared. When Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr made his house in Mustafa Town Lahore, he got a room specially made for his Murshid Pak upstairs which had everything for his comfort and ease for his Murshid to stay on his visits to Lahore.
In the summer of July 2000, Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr went to meet his Murshid found him perspiring amongst the crowd with only one fan to provide air. He immediately returned to Lahore, bought an AC and got the AC fitted in the room of his Murshid.
Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) assigned Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr the duty of publishing the Magazine “Mahnama Mirat-ul-Arifeen Lahore” as its chief editor though he had no previous experience of journalism. In April 2000, the first issue of the Mahnama Mirat-ul-Arifeen Lahore was published. Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr successfully published this magazine according to the teachings of Faqr under the guidance of Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) till August 2004.
In November 2001, Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) assigned Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr the duty to establish “Maktaba-ul-Arifeen” in order to spread the teachings of Faqr through writings and publications. In April 2002, Maktaba-al-Arifeen was established with grandeur and the books gained much popularity. Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr supervised “Maktaba-al-Arifeen” during the life time of his Murshid. Apart from this, Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr also devoted his house (in Education Town) and 7 Marlas land for the office of Maktaba-al-Arifeen. Since October 2009, the office of Mahnama Sultan-ul-Faqr has been established there.
Last time the gold Ism-e-Allah Zaat were made in 1934 by Shahbaz-e-Arifaan Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Bahadur Ali Shah (R.A.). Nothing about gold Ism-e-Allah Zaat was ever discussed till Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr took the oath of allegiance. He was assigned this auspicious duty of getting the gold Ism-e-Allah Zaat made, as well as the printed ones. He performed this duty throughout the remaining life of Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.). A few moments before his demise, he called up Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr on phone to inquire about this particular duty. The details of this conversation are present in the book based on the sacred life of Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh by the name “Sahib-e-Lolaak” written by Tariq Ismail Sagar.
He also gave the responsibility of Bait-ul-Maal (Treasury) of Islahi Jamat to Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr because in the matters of money, he could trust only him.
In 2001, Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) intended to perform Hajj and told Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr, “This Hajj is important for you and me as well”. Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr had already spent all his wealth in the way of Allah, so he had to sell his car to carry out the expenses of Hajj for himself, his Murshid as well as the other companions. Hence, from 28th February till 28th March 2001, Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) performed Hajj with his beloved Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr and few other selected disciples.
In November 2001, Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) made Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr the supervisor of Islahi Jamat and thus, the Islahi Jamat all over the country was practically united under Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr’s leadership. A lot of people got blessed by Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) due to the method of preaching adopted by Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr.
The above mentioned duties are only a few among the countless responsibilities that Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr performed for his Murshid, which include financial arrangements for celebrating Milad-e-Mustafa Sall’Allahu Alayhi Wa’alihi Wasallam or other programs, preparing sacred sheet for the shrine of Sultan Abdul Aziz (R.A.) every year and many other personal duties of Sultan-ul-Faqr VI which are not being mentioned just to be precise.

TRANSFERENCE OF THE TRUST OF FAQR

By 26th December 2003, Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) had checked and approved Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr after all the trials that only he was capable of holding the Trust of Allah. So Sultan-ul-Faqr VI transferred the Trust of Faqr inwardly and secretly to Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr and left this material world. “From 2001 to 2003, my Murshid trained me and passed away on the 20th of December 2003.” (Mujtaba Akhir Zamani)

THRONE OF GUIDANCE

Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus is the 31st Shaikh of the Sarwari Qadri Order. He started granting Ism-e-Allah Zaat and accepting allegiance from the 14th of August 2005. Since then, he has made great efforts and taken revolutionary steps to shower the bounty of the Treasure of Faqr upon the entire Ummah.
The first and foremost favour by Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr upon the Seeker of Allah is the Zikr itself. In the past, Zikr (invocation) of Ism-e-Allah Zaat (Personal Name of Allah) was given by the Murshid-e-Kamil (the Perfect Spiritual Guide) to a disciple in four stages i.e. (Allahu, Lillah, Lahoo and Hoo) and with each stage, the disciple progressed in Qurb (nearness to Allah). Sultan-ul-Azkar Hoo (the crown invocation Hoo) was given to him when he had passed all the basic stages. It was a long process and required a lot of time and patience. Usually, most of the disciples could not reach this highest level of invocation “Hoo” but Allah has blessed Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus with such great spiritual powers that he gives his disciples the Zikr of Sultan-ul-Azkar “Hoo” at the very first day of allegiance and also gives them printed or pure gold Ism-e-Allah Zaat for Tasawur (contemplation). Shaikh-e-Akbar Allama Ibn-e-Arabi (R.A.) says in his book Fatoohat-e-Makiyah that "Hoo is the extreme and most elevated Zikr of Arifeen".
When the seeker gets perfection in Zikr (invocation) and Tasawur (contemplation) of Ism-e-Allah Zaat, then the Tasawur of Ism-e-Mohammad (sacred Name of Mohammad Sall’Allahu Alayhi Wa’alihi Wasallam) is given to him for further spiritual elevation. This is being done for the first time in the history of Faqr by the beneficence of Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus.

MURSHID KAMIL AKMAL

In every era, there is present an Insan-e-Kamil who possesses Amanat-e-Elahiya and is the heir of the treasure of Faqr. Such a Perfect Spiritual Guide is described as one who grants Sultan-ul-Azkar Ism-e-Azam “Hoo” and the Tasawur of Ism-e-Allah Zaat to the seeker on the very first day of his oath. Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus has all the qualities of a Perfect Spiritual Guide of Sarwari Qadri which are witnessed by each of his seeker whom he has spiritually cleansed. He has the ability to cleanse the heart and purify the soul of the seeker and make him as clear as a mirror from inward illnesses of his disciples such as those of jealousy, envy, greed, lust, etc. and leads them to the path of piety, patience, steadfastness, humility, gratitude and unconditional Love for Allah.

STRUGGLE FOR SPREADING FAQR

ESTABLISHMENT OF TEHREEK DAWAT E FAQR

Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus has laid the foundation of Tehreek Dawat-e-Faqr, so as to spread the message of Faqr in a more organized and proper channel. It is a registered organization since Ocotber 2009. Regardless of any sect, group or school of thought, Tehreek Dawat-e-Faqr welcomes all the Muslims who seek to sanctify their soul and desire the Closeness and Vision of Allah. Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus purifies the hearts and inner selves of the Seekers of Allah without involving them in hard mystic exercises or lengthy prayers. He has made the bounty of Faqr common and approachable for everyone and grants Ism-e-Allah Zaat for Zikr and Tasawur to Muslims all over the world with allegiance and without allegiance.
For those who want to swear allegiance, personal meeting is preferred but is not necessary which is quite impressive and miraculous as he is the first one to make oath possible overseas. Initially, oath required personal meeting but since 2014, Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus has made it possible for the seekers living abroad to take the oath of alligience through the internet via a written oath form and also through audio calls. Ism-e-Allah Zaat is sent to them by post. This is a milestone in the history of Faqr and Allah has truly blessed Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus with impeccable spiritual powers to make it possible.

TITLE & STATUS

Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus was named Najib-ur-Rehman by his father and was given the Kuniyat of “Abu-al-Murtaza” by his Murshid Sultan-ul-Faqr VI Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali (R.A.) due to his son Mohammad Murtaza Najib. When he was given the Throne of Divine Guidance and Persuasion, he was titled as “Sultan Mohammad” by the Assembly of Ghuas-ul-Azam Razi Allah Anhu. He named himself “Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr” which literally means “the slave of Sultan-ul-Faqr” out of his respect and devotion towards his Murshid.
Hazrat Ahmed bin Hanbal Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh says,” I requested Hazrat Fazeel bin Ayaz Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh to give me some advice. So he said, “Become a Khadim(slave) rather than a Makhdom(ruler) because becoming a Khadim(slave) is a matter of dignity.” (Tazkarah-tul-Auliya)
Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus has been awarded the title of “Sultan Mohammad” by two of the most Holy Beings, Ghaus-ul-Azam Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani Razi Allah Anhu and Sultan-ul-Arifeen Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo (R.A.).

BEAUTY & GRANDEUR

Allah has blessed Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus with such elevated level of Divine Beauty which has absorbed in his inward self with such extremity that it even exudes through his outward self becoming a spectacle for all to see, praise and adore.
Although he has turned 55 years of age in August 2014, he looks way younger than his age. His skin illuminates with the freshness of youth. In the gatherings of his disciples, those whom Allah has granted beauty seem dull in front of the unmatched beauty of Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus. He usually keeps his eyes down out of modesty but it takes only one glance of his to change the state of the seeker and bless him with Marifat.
Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus has done so much for spreading Faqr that his eyesight has become a bit weak when it comes to reading and writing. So, he wears spectacles. His face in itself is a prodigy of Light of Ism-e-Allah Zaat. It is a face that contains ultimate beauty and holds the unknown secrets. Each seeker reads it according to his/her spiritual status. Yet there is surely something for everyone to read.

CHARACTER & PERSONALITY

The unparalleled personality of Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus is the true presentation of all these Verses and Hadiths in the present world:

“O believers! Fear Allah and look for a Vaseela to approach Him.” (Surah Al-Maidah)
“Verily, the friends of Allah are (those) on whom fear (cometh) not nor do they grieve.” (Suarh Al-Younas)

Reported the Prophet Sall’Allahu Alayhi Wa’alihi Wasallam:

Hazrat Ibn-e-Umar states: “There are some believers of Allah whom Allah has awarded the quality of helping the people and people turn to them for the solution of their problems.” (Al-Jamiul Sagheer)
“This is the attribute of Auliya Allah that blessings are found in their speeches, their breath, their clothes, their houses and in the sand of their feet and at a place where they sit for a day.” (Minhajul Abideen Ma’a Sharha Sirajus Saalikin)

It is a matter of just one glance of his to liberate a person from his difficulties whether inward or outward. He takes the seekers to a level where their worldly lust ends and they reach a point where Allah is pleased with them and they agree to Allah’s will. Only those who have their intentions tainted with doubts and suspicions about their Mentor remain blinded from the Reality and there is nothing but blindness for them in both the worlds.
Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus owns a very pleasant personality. He is the first one to greet others. He is very simple and clear in his way of talking. Although he is stationed at such an elevated level yet he is extremely humble and lives an ordinary life. He gives equal respect to all his disciples irrespective of their education or class. However, those who possess high level Taqwa find themselves closer to Him. He is blessed with the special quality of empathy. Allah has blessed him with an excellent standard of living yet he chooses to be simple and even dresses simply yet the seekers are drawn towards him.
Those, who want to get their inner selves purified and sanctified, and seek the Vision and Closeness of Allah must have the privilege of meeting Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman Madzillah-ul-Aqdus and having Zikr (invocation) and Tasawur (contemplation) of Ism-e-Allah Zaat (Personal Name of Allah).
