MEETING WITH HIS PEER
Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) reached Delhi for the first time in 1221 Hijri to take bayat from Hazrat Khwaja Afaq Sahab(rahmatullah alaih), Hazrat was well informed from begining that the boy who is coming to take bayat is not an ordinary one, Personality like him are rearly born, many of the Mashayak and Aulia of that time has prayed to get him but by the grace of ALLAH, he was sent in the hands of Hazrat Khwaja Afaq Sahab(rahmatullah alaih) and so he send his Khulfas and mureed to welcome him from a long distance, Hazrat Khwaja Afaq Sahab(rahmatullah alaih) said about Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazl-e-Rehman Gujmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) that:
"One day you will dazzle the world like a sun."
After taking bayat Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) desired his will to learn Usool-E-Hadees Sharif his Pir Sahab Smiled and granted him the permission and gave his blessings, On the first day of his class Hazrat Shah Abdul Aziz Dhelvi(rahmatullah alaih) treated him as a normal student, Hazrat Gajmuradbadi (rahmatullah alaih) slept empty stomach without having any food, but ALLAH knows what Hazrat Shah Abdul Aziz Dhelvi(rahmatullah alaih) saw in the night that very next day early morning he sent one of his servant to call him but he went in the maghrib after taking permission from his Pir Sahab. Hazrat Shah Abdul Aziz Dhelvi(rahmatullah alaih) treated him with great love and affection and told him that from today onwards have your dinner with me, after that he started the Hadees class which would start from Isha and last till Tahajud. Hazrat Shah Abdul Aziz Dhelvi(rahmatullah alaih) sahab use to only allow his Son Inlaw (daughter's husband) Hazrat Sayed Zahiruddine Shaheed to attain class with him.

Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) has said that one day the Son In law of Hazrat Shah Abdul Aziz Dhelvi (rahmatullah alaih) told him that what is the use of teaching Maulvi Fazl-E-Rehma from Isha to Tahajud change the timings. Hazrat Shah Abdul Aziz Dhelvi(rahmatullah alaih) replied the reason for teaching Maulvi Fazl-E-Rehma alone is that he is learing directly from the bargah(presence) of our Holy Prophet(sal-lal-laho-tala-alahi-wasalm) and this is the only reason why i have asked you to attain the classes so that you might gain something, I suggest you should learn from Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi(rahmatullah alaih). He is getting the knowledge of Hadees Shraif directly from Holy Prophet (sal-lal-laho-tala-alahi-wasalm) what ever he wants he asks our Holy Prophet (sal-lal-laho-tala-alahi-wasalm) and it is granted to him.
Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) after completing his studies returned to Ganjmuradabad Sharif and resided there. It became a centre of spiritual learning in the country. He built many mosques all over the country. He lived in a very small house. Both Hindus and Muslims flocked to see him for light and wisdom.
His life was very simple. He dressed very poorly. He lived on bajra bread. He lived in a mud house. He used to smoke the hookah because of constipation. His disciple brought him costly clothes but he wore only rags. He did not use a pillow for sleeping. However, he was fond of Delhi shoes and Delhi caps.
Once an Arab asked him for two hundred rupees. He didnot know who the person was. He borrowed the money from a shopkeeper and gave it to him. But the Arab was not satisfied. He wanted another Rs. 50. He also managed that money for hm. Then the Arab demanded a blanket and a pitcher. The Master gave him his own blanket and his own pitcher. Then the Arab wanted Master to write ten letters for him. The Master did that also for an unknown guest. Then the Arab demanded fare for a pony. The Master directed the Arab to take the money from a certain shopkeeper. Such was the Master's limitless generosity and tolerance.

THE KABA CAME TO SEE HAZRAT FAZLE REHMA (REH)
Many followers of Hazrat Ganjmuradabadi(rahmatullah alaih) use to see Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) doing tawaf-e-kaba & many offering namaz in Masjid-E-Nabvi(sal lal laho tala laihi wasala) while he use to be phisically present at ganjmuradabad sharif, when these people after their haj was done use to come to meet Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) and use tell that we have seen you at makam-e-ibrahim, some would say we saw you doing tawaf-e-kaba, some said we saw you praying namaz Masjid-E-Nabvi(sal lal laho tala laihi wasala). Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) to just smile on hearing this comment's.
Hazrat Syed Mohammad maroof Madni Shah Sahib (rehmatullah alaih) who use to see Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi(rahmatullah alaih) many times in Khana-E-Kaba offering namaz, he inquired about him and later came to know by some one that he is a shaikh from gujmuradabad sharif , U.P, India. He came to India and took the bayat on Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi(rahmatullah alaih) hands and became a wali-e-kamil.
Once Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) decided to visit kaba sharif, as he use to live with his mother in ganjmuradabad sharif, his mother told him that son i am too old and as i am not feeling well also you can go latter, who will take care of me when you are not here and because of this Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) droped his paln to visit the kaba sharif.
At the same night when he was lying on the bed in his hujra what he saw the kaba was there standing in front of him and the kaba sharif told Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih)that due to yours immense love for Allah and his holy Prophet (sal-lal-laho-tala-alhi-wasalam) ALLAH has send me to you so that you can see me here.
SEEING KABA SHARIF IN FRONT WHILE NAMAZ
Waris Piya (rahmatullah alaih) a great sufi saint from barabanki use to visit Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) and use to call him chacha jan. He has said that Hazrat Maulna Fazl-e-Rehman Gunjmuradabadi(rahmatullah alaih) never made mureed with out asking our holy prophet(sal-lal-laho-tala-alihi-wasalm) and whom ever he wanted he would present him in the assembly of our holy prophet(sal-lal-laho-tala-alihi-wasalm).
Waris Piya(rahmatullah alaih) use to not offer namaz due to which his mureed use to not have proper faith on their pir once when waris piya visited Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih). He told waris piya will he offer namaz today with him waris piya immediately yes off course. As soon as all the peope stared praying they saw that they are standing in front of kaba sharif and performing the namaz. As the namaz ended all the murid of waris piya (rahmatullah alaih) were surprised to se kaba sharif and then Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) told the murid of waris piya (rahmatullah alaih) that your pir is not an ordinary pir he offer his namaz daily in kaba sharif on hearing this the murid felt ashamed for their attitude towards their pir and felt sorry.Waris piya smiled on this and said to Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) that for so many years he had hided his raz from so many people but you have opened it today.
After this Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) asked waris piya did he enjoyed offering namaz today on this waris piya told.
"arey chacha jan aise namziya agar koi padhaye to hum roz padab".
Which Means:
"If any one like you make me offer this type of namaz then definately i will daily offer the namaz"
Note: Many Ulema mis quote this wakya with Hazrat Makhdoom Simnani(rehmatullah alaih) which is wrong as Hazrat Makhdoom Simnani(rehmatullah alaih) is a buzurg of between 8th & 9th century, while Hazrat Waris Pak (rehmatullah alaih) is a buzurg of 12th & 13 century there is almost a diff of 450 years between them so my frinds this meeting was not with Hazrat Makhdoom Simnani(rehmatullah alaih) but with Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi(rehmatullah laih).
One more time when Hazrat Waris Piya(rehmatullah alaih) visited Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih) he was having two sons 1) Shah Ahmed Miya Sahab (rahmatullah alaih) from whom the Silsila-E-Rehmani has spread and the second one was 2) Saidu Baba (rahmatullah alaih) who was a mazoob by birth.( Mazoob are those who are directly connected to ALLAH.) Once Saidu was sitting on a small brick wall when he was very young he said "chal mere ghode tik tik tik" which "means run my horse " like small children do when they are small on hearing this the wall started moving when Hazrat Maulna Fazl-e-Rehman Gunjmuradabadi(rahmatullah alaih) heard of this incident he told Saidu baba(rahmatullah alaih) today u have disclosed the secret(raaz) of derveshi(sufism) this should not be done and after few days saidu baba(rahmatullah alaih) took the parda, he was burried in the mazar while he was alive. "in na lil laa he wa in na ilahe rajiun".
Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih) use to always tell every one not to disturb Saidu Baba(rahmatullah alaih) in anyways if any thing went wrong i am not responsible.
So when Waris Pia (rehmatullah alaih) visited Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih) at that time the age of Saidu Baba(rahmatullah alaih) was very young he use to always sit outside the gate at the entrance of the masjid leading to the khanka of Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih) So when Waris Pia(rahmatullah alaih) came to Ganjmuradabad sharif as he was entering the masjid he saw Saidu Baba (rahmatullah alaih)sitting at the enterance so for respect he offeres salam to him on which saidu baba replied and later asked who are you on which Waris Pia(rahmatullah alaih) answered, I am Waris on hearing this Saidu Baba (rahmatullah alaih) replied ALLAH Waris. After hearing this Waris Pia(rahmatullah alaih) entered the masjid to meetHazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih).
When they both meet Waris Pia(rehmatullah alaih) asked Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih)
"arey chachajan who ladka kaun hai jo bahar baitha hai" means who is the boy who is sitting outdise on which Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih) replied "arey us ne tujhse kuch keh to nahi diya" means had he not said you any thing on which waris pia (rahmatullah alaih) narrated the whole story that happened outside. Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Reham Ganjmurdabadi (rahmatullah alaih) after hearing the whole thing told "Waris pia(rahmatullah alaih) ki tum bahut nasib wale ho ki us bachey nay tum se kaha ki ALLAH Waris agar wo keh deta ki tu kya waris ALLAH waris, to tumhara sab kuch chala jata.
ALA HAZRAT(REH) CAME TO MEET FAZLE REHMA GANJMURADABADI (REH)
Once a great scholar known as Ahmed raza (Ala Hazrat) (rahmatullah alaih) came to meet Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih). After eaching ganjmuradabad sharif Ala Hazrat(rehmatullah alaih) informed Hazrat Maulna Fazl-e-Rehman Gunjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) about his visit and is eager to meet him through a khadim, On hearing this Maulna Fazl-e-Rehman Gunjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) reloied what he want from a fakir, His Father is a scholar(aalim), His Grandfather is a scholar, he himself is a scholar, later called him, Ala Hazrat (rahmatullah alaih) asked Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) what does he think of Milad Sharif instead of repling to the quetion Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) asked him what do you think of Milaad Sharif you your self are a scholar on which Ahmed raza (rahmatullah alaih) replied for me it is mujtahab on hearing the answer Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) said for me it is sunnat, and said that the Sahaba-E-Karam(Radi Allahu anhu) who use to take part in jihad use to praise our Holy Prophet(Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) among their people and use to tell all people that how ALLAH has blessed his Holy Prophet(Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) and many other things this is what we do in Milad Sharif the only differnce is that the Sahaba-E-Karam(Radi Allahu anhu) use to distribute their head while you people distribute Laddu(sweet) and after this Ala Hazrat(rahmatullah alaih) asked him for any guindance tips on which Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) replied dont do takfir in a hurry, Ala Hazrat(rahmatullah alaih) on hearing this started thinking that i called only those people kafir who disobeys our Holy Prophet(sal-lal-laho-tala-alihi-wasalm) Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) came to know what Ahmed Raza (rahmatullah alaih) was thinking by KASHF and replied yes yes undoubetly if any one disobeys the Holy Prophet(sal-lal-laho-tala-alihi-wasalm) even in a slightest manner is undoubtely Kafir.
Then Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih) removed his cap(Topi) and placed his cap on the head of Imam Ahmed Raza (rahmatullah alaih) and said that like the cap is shining on your head Ahmed Raza (rahmatullah alaih) one day you will shine in the whole universe and as you people can see how the fame of Imam Ahmed Raza (rahmatullah alaih) is today all over the world because of the dua of Hazrat Maulna Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rahmatullah alaih).

Chowdhary Mohammed Azeem sahab fazl-e-rehmani did so and lit 12 chiragh(lamps) in the masjid, Sher Mohammed Farukhabadi did not liked this act of litting the lamps, he said it is (israf) waste of money to lit so many lamps, Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) called that man and told him that if you think that litting so many lamps is a waste of money that put the lamps off which you think are excess, The gentle man went inside the masjid and put off the 1st lamp and went for the 2nd as he put off the 2nd one the 1st one automatically got lit up, he again put off the 1st lamp the 2nd lamp got lit up he did this for all the lamp and failed to put off any of them and came back. Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) told him what happened where is your (israf) waste of money gone now, If you have not seen sight of Ikhlaas see this.
It is the love by which the lamps were lit up for Milad Sharif and they are still burning. Sher Mohammed Farukhabadi felt very ashamed on his act and took the bayat and cried for a very long duration. All of a sudden Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) got up and stood at the mimber and started reciting Naat Shairf and Zikr Wiladat (sal-lal-laho-tala-alahi-wasalm) in a very spiritual way, after reading the Salato Salam Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) made fatiha on the imarti (sweet) he himself had one and distributed 2-2 amongs others.
Futher on Milad Sharif Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) said that the Quran Paak is full of the praise & zikr of Hazrat Zakaria, Hazrat Yahya, Hazrat Esa, Hazrat Moosa the reamining Ambiya (may peace be upon them all) and Hazrat Mohammad (sal lal laho tala alaihi wasalam) this only is called Milad Sharif. I daily practice Milad Sharif, and said that just saying:
LA ILAHA ILLAALLAHU MOHAMMADUR RASULULLAHE (SAL LAL LAHO TALA ALAIHI WASALM) is also milad sharif any thing related to the praise of Hazrat Mohammad (sal lal laho tala alaihi wasalam) is called Milad Sharif.
Once Hazrat Ahmed Miyan Sahab(rehmatullah alaih) said that many people says that practicing milad sharif is shirk & biddat on hearing this Hazrat Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullah alaih) started shivering in anger and said:
As salaam alakika ya ayo han nabiyo....see we all daily particapate in milad, which means when in namaz one says at tahiyat he sends blessing and salam at Hazrat Mohammad (sal lal laho tala alaihi wasalam) when it is not prohibited or shirk and biddat in namaz then how can be it shirk and biddat after namaz.
ECSTASY DURING SAJDAH
Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) told that he experienced such ecstasy during sajdah, it was as though ALLAH had expressed love for him & Kissed him. And when he recited the Qur'ân, he experienced such delight, that if you had to experience it, you would tear your clothing off and run to the jungle. He also said that when the damsels of jannah (hoor)come to him, he would say to them, "If you want to listen to the Quran, you may sit, otherwise find your way from here."
Look at the thoughts of the Ahlullah [the saints] and compare it to our thoughts. What a difference between our thoughts and theirs. They are the true lovers of The True Being.
A Molvi employed by the government and who received his salary from the state of Rampur came to Shah Saheb. Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) was at the time delivering the lesson of Sahih Bukhari. In between when the Molvi got the opportunity, he told Shah Saheb that the Nawab of Rampur wanted to give him one hundred thousand rupees. Shah Saheb was extremely distressed. He said, "O Molvi Saheb, destroy the hundred thousand rupees. Listen to what I have to say. Then he recited the following couplet.
Whatever grace we see of his on the heart,
The heart becomes independent of all wealth.
In other words, our hearts are not in need of all the rupees of the Nawabs due to the torrential downpour of mercy that we see ALLAH sending down on our hearts. Whoever makes friends with the elephant trainer, has to enlargen his door because the former comes with his elephant. Thus Allâh also makes the heart of the person very large who He grants a special radiance and proximity. Moulana Rumi (Rahimahullâh) says,
The exterior of a saint can be so weak that he dances around due to a mosquito bite,
but his interior contains the revolution of the seven heavens.
THE HIDING OF THE SUN
Nawab Zul Karim Sahab from dhaka has said that once he came with his father to meet Hazrat Maulana Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih). Hazrat Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) was reading Masnavi-E-Maulana Romi as the sun rays fall on his face and on the Masnavi Sharif, Hazrat Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) look at the sun and said i am reading masnavi sharif and u dont have any manners, as he said this it seem that the sun has not yet rised and there was complete shade.
This same thing happend many times while Hazrat Ganjmuradabadi (rehmatullaha alaih) use to give Dars-E-Hadees Sharif to his followers & students.

WHY DO PEOPLE VISIT AJMER SHARIF?
Owais E Dauran, Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganj Muradabadi Rehmatullah Alaih Was One Of The Distinguished Dervish Of His Time, He Was The Gaus E Zama Of His Era, Due To Which Many Sufi Saints, Islamic Scholars, Bureaucrats, Nawabs And People From Other Tribes And Countries Used To Visit Him. He Always Used To Solve Their Problems And Supplicate For Them.
Once A Nawab(Powerful Landowner) Visited Hazrat For Seeking His Blessings, On His Meeting With The Shaikh He Asked, "Hazrat! Why Does One Have To Physically Visit The Shrine Of Khawaja Gareeb Nawaz (R.A), When Blessings Of Esal-e-sawab (Offerings, Charity) Can Reach From Anywhere? "
As It Was Hot Summer’s, The Servant Of Hazrat Was Waving A Fan On Him, The Nawab Was Sitting At Some Distance, Hazrat Called The Nawab Closer And Asked "Do You Feel The Wind Of The Fan Which Is Fanning For Me? Nawab Replied, Yes, I Do. Hazrat Replied, Did You Felt While You Were Sitting Away? No Replied, The Nawab.
At This, Hazrat Answered, " This Is The Basic Reason For Visiting The Shrine Of Hazrat Khawaja Gareeb Nawaz(R.a), Because Verily Fatiha(Blessing Of Esal E Sawab) Will Reach There But The Blessings And Mercy Which Are Being Showered By ALLAH At The Blessed Shrine Of Khawaja Gareeb Nawaz(R.A) Will Not Shower At Your Home... As The Wind Of This Fan Made You Comfortable While It Was Not Meant For You, In The Same Way Whoever Visits Shrine Of Ajmer Or Any Other Sufi, He Too Will Receives The Benefits And Becomes Blissful With The Divine Noor." After Hearing This, The Nawab Got So Impressed By Hazrat That Became His Disciple Immediately.
Similarly, Once Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi Rehmatullah Alaih Thought Of Visiting Ajmer Shrine, In The Same Night Hazrat Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti Rehmatullah Alaih Came To Meet In Spiritual Form And Immensely Rewarded Him With His Blessings.
Hazrat Maulana Shah Fazle Rehma Ganjmuradabadi Rehmatullah Alaih Also Said That If The Chain Of Prophecy Would Have Not Ended, Then Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti Rehmatullah Alaih Would Have Been A Prophet.
Hazrat Was So Much Involved In The Love Of Allah And Our Holy Prophet (Salla Allahu Ta'ala 'alayhi Wa Sallam) And In The Same Way Our Holy Prophet (Salla Allahu Ta'ala 'alayhi Wa Sallam) & His Family (Ahle Bayat) Use To Love Him, Hazrat Has Mentioned Himself, That He Was Blessed By Allah Subhan Wa Tala With A Distinguishing Feature, That Whenever He Read About Any Prophet, Their Companions Or Any Great Sufi Or He Wished To Visit Their Shrines, They Themselves Came To Meet Him And Blessed Him In Abundance… Many Time He Was Blessed With The Vision Of Prophet Mohammed (Sal Lal Laho Tala Alaih Wasalam), Panjatan Pak(Alaih Salam), Shaba-e-karam(Radiallahu Anhu), Gaus-e- Pak (Radiallahu Anhu) He Use To Call Him Nana Jaan, Mujadid Alif Sani(Rahmatullah Alaih), Nizamuddin Awliya, And Many Great Sufi Personalities.
One Can Understand His Superiority As Why He Was Called The Gaus E Zama Among So Many Awliya Allah From His Era, Is Shown By This Sentence "That He Received The Teachings Of Hadees Sharif Directly From Our Holy Prophet (Sal Lal Laho Tala Alaihi Wasalam) And Whenever He Wanted, He Use To Have His Vison, And Whom Ever He Wanted, He Use To Present Them At The Blessed Bargah Of Our Prophet Mohmammed (Sal Lal Laho Tala Alaihi Wasalam)"
