State of the Heart

What I saw heard and Thought

Readers! That young man was saying these things to me and I was looking at him with awe filled eyes that perhaps I could be fortunate enough to receive this moment and that I also had this dream and this moment became a part of my destiny. So with my awe-filled and anxious eyes I was looking at him and I was asking him, “What happened then?”

A young man who told me that he was 21 years old came to me with a wonderful autobiography and a true story. He said, “Before this my life was different, my wishes, desires, hopes, so much so that the decisions were different. After developing affinity with the  Tasbeeh Khana my decisions changed, wishes changed, and hopes changed. I made a decision that I should perform such a worship that no one ever did before. I kept on thinking for a long time but I could not find any worship that no one ever did before. I kept on thinking for a long time but I could not find any worship that no one ever did before. Because in this world there have been many more worhisppers, pious people, dervishes and friends of Allah, who have worshipped Allah day and night, who have performed prostrations and with sheer practice they have reconciled with the Lord. At last I got tired that which worship should I perform and which prostrations should I seek. I was engulfed in these thoughts and I was praying to Allah that O Allah, show me that way of worship that no one has ever performed. At once one night I saw Hazrat Usman Ghani (رضی اللہ عنہ) in a dream. He (رضی اللہ عنہ) patted me, he kissed my forehead and said truthful people find the destination. He pointed towards my eyes and said engage your eyes in worship. At the present moment in the world the most deceiving affair is of the eyes. When I woke up from the dream, there was sweet smell emanating from my body and my room. And the spot where he kissed my forehead, even today I have this feeling and that feeling is true that a sacred personality kissed me here. And then I had a feeling that the shyness of Hazrat Usman (رضی اللہ عنہ) is found in the books of seerah so in reality Hazrat Usman (رضی اللہ عنہ ) wants to tell me that I should work on my eyes and make my eyes clean. Because in the present era certainly what Hazrat Usman (رضی اللہ عنہ) said is true many people are being deprived because of eyes and they are at loss. So just think about this that this thing started coming in my mind and I made a decision that I have to make my eyes my target and through my eyes I have to perform that worship that no one else has ever performed. So! Now it was me and my eyes. I started protecting my eyes during the days and in the nights. I started cleaning my eyes while using the mobile, computer, Internet, billboard, while roaming around in the streets, in solitude, so much so that in every affair. If my eyes ever willingly or unwillingly went astray, I would feel ashamed and I would cry and till the time I would not seek complete forgiveness, I would feel restless. This went on for a few months. At last one day I was sleeping. What I saw was that I was sitting in front of Hazrat Usman (رضی اللہ عنہ ) and I was reading a book. And there were two more handsome young men sitting in front of him. And it felt as if light was emanating from their bodies. At once I heard their voice in my ears. Both of them were grandsons of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) Hazrat Hassan (رضی اللہ عنہ) and Hazrat Hussain (رضی اللہ عنہ). And it felt as if both of them were being taught by him. And he (رضی اللہ عنہ) is teaching both of the princes with a lot of love, affection and empathy. When I sat down, Hazrat Usman (رضی اللہ عنہ) did not pay any attention towards me. It felt as if they were both very engrossed in giving education. In a short while both of the princes folded their books and shook hands with both of them and kissed their hands and went away. Hazrat paid his attention towards me and said: That’s nice. He pointed towards my eyes. I said while crying. I enjoyed it so much so that I cannot explain. He (رضی اللہ عنہ) said, there is still a lack of hard work. Increase your efforts, attention, faith and courage. You slip sometimes. Then he placed his hands on my head and the dream finished. Then I started more efforts. Readers! That young man was saying these things to me and I was looking at him with awe filled eyes that perhaps I could be fortunate enough to receive this moment and that I also had this dream and this moment became a part of my destiny. So with my awe-filled and anxious eyes I was looking at him and I was asking him, “What happened then?” That young man said with his wet eyes that when I started working too much on my eyes, then the state of my prayers changed. The enjoyment of my prostrations returned. There is a power that wakes me up at night. I pray tahajjud. Neither am I tired nor do wink, nor do I get fed up, nor do I feel like giving up. Rather everyday there is a new desire, a new passion and I move forward towards a truthful life. I have had another benefit, our business has flourished with bliss. My father does a business. He has received so many orders that where we used to earn thousands in months, we have started earning millions. The serenity of the house has returned. I saw disputes my whole life and I was fed of those disputes. But now there is peace in the heart of everyone and there is bliss. And now every person is spending a life of peace. There is love, affection, empathy and tolerance among each other. Our hearts are glued together. The spring of love has arrived in the backyard of my house. My memory has sharpened. I recently had a test. I have stood first in that. My respect, grace, dignity, those elders who till today did not want to see me, they look at me with respect, they treat me with grace. I have become great and beloved in their eyes. Blessings, happiness, affluence, success have returned to our house. I am satisfied as well as a bit upset too. I cut him short and asked him: Why are you anxious? Upset because why did I waste my previous life and why did I destroy my previous life. Alas! I should have thought something about my past life. His tears had become rain of monsoon. His face was like an innocent bud. His words were blossoming flowers. The peek of his eyes was giving a message. Even today there are such people who have the piety of Hazrat Usman Zunnoorain (رضی اللہ عنہ). Even today there are such people who, if they work hard, can attain from their eyes wealth, respect, glamour, grace and a wonderful and a graceful life. Zindabad o young man! You gave me one lesson. I am also a passenger and traveler of this same destination. By the will of Allah, I shall also try. O young man, may your youth stay forever! May your eyes always be full of spring. May they always bosom and smile. Aameen!
