He was a Sufi and had a mindset of a dervish, and was granted a spiritual cloak that had healing and other mysterious powers. It was extremely beneficial for any type of hardship and an answer to all prayers. As news of the powers of the cloak spread in his town, people came in from all over region and it became difficult to manage them.
