Bismillahir Rehmanir
Raheem
Gausul Azam blessed by
Sayyidina RasoolAllah
sallallahu alaih wasallam,
he became a great
preacher, orator and
reformer.
Once in Shawwal 521 AH,
Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jilani
(alaih rehman) saw
Sayyidina RasoolAllah
sallallahu alaih wasallam
in his dream advising him
to make a speech and to
impart his knowledge to
others.
Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jilani
(alaih rehman) asked to
be blessed with
eloquence as he was an
Ajmi (non-Arab).
Sayyidina RasoolAllah
sallallahu alaih wasallam
recited the Aayat "Call
unto the way of thy Lord
with wisdom and
beautiful
preachings' (16:25) seven
times and blew on the
face of Hazrat Abdul
Qadir Jilani (alaih
rehman).
The same day after Zuhr
prayer, Hazrat Abdul
Qadir Jilani (alaih
rehman) mounted the
pulpit and addressed the
people with a sermon.
The audience were
entranced by his words.
His assemblies were
attended by men of all
calibre.
About 400 men remained
engaged in recording his
speeches (Akhbarul
Akhyar).
Many embraced Islam
under the influence of his
sermons. His fame for
learning, piety, inner
illumination, truth and
strict adherence to
Shariah spread all over.
People flocked to hear his
lectures and benefit from
the sermons that covered
all aspects of life.
Muslim sinners would
change their course of
life after listening to his
discourses. His spiritual
personality awed even
the greatest of men.
When Hazrat Abdul Qadir
Jilani (alaih rehman)
spoke he was prompted
by the Grace of Allah
subhan wa ta'ala causing
the miraculous and
revolutionary impact of
his words.
The greatest of all divines
and mystic saints of
Islam, Hazrat Peeran-e-
Peer Ghaus e Azam Shah
Abdul Qadir Jilani (alaih
rehman) breathed his last
on the 11th Rabi-us-Sani,
561 A.H. at the age of 91
years.
His death cast a gloom
over the world of Islam
but his life and teachings
will forever illuminate the
hearts of Muslims.
