Azam Shah Muhammad Muzharrullah (may Allah be pleased with
him), the father of Prof.
Dr. Masud Ahmed was well known in Delhi. He had a very close
relationship with Alahazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan's family
and that is the reason the flower from the garden of

These
are the words of Delhi when the Fakir came to Pakistan; the
dazzling sight began to whither
Thoughts of days separating
from the beloved: how sad
Changes
of time huts the heart
After a period in 1970, when work began earnest on Alahazrat and those that appeared distant began to get closer, things that enabled remembrance of Saints are things that join hearts and mend relations. Praise be to Almighty Allah for blessing the Fakir`s humble house with flowers from the garden of Raza. All began to come; all flavored the Fakir with grace. Hazrat Hassan Mia Maarharwee, Dr. Mohammad Ameen Maarharwee, Hazrat Rehaan Raza Khan Bareilly, Hazrat Manaan Raza Khan Bareilly, Hazrath Akhtar Raza Khan Bareilly, Hazrath Tauseef Raza Khan Bareilly, Hazrath Taqaddus Ali Khan Qadiri Razvi, Maulana Shauqat Hassan Khan Qadiri and Hazrat Mushaahid Raza Khan Qadiri Haashimi, etc.
From the
praiseworthy family of Alahazrat (may Allah be pleased with
him), this renown,
predecessor, the well traveled, roving ambassador of Islam,
Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Ibrahim Khushtar Siddiqui Qadiri
Razvi from Jamaal Puri (May he be blessed forever) is a
flower amongst these flowers who has fragranced my humble
abode with his presence on many occasions.
His Eminence by good fortune was born in 1348(A/H)(1930) in West Bengal, India. He has exceeded the spiritual status of many in his era. We must be thankful by the Mercy of Almighty Allah; we have been selected to serve His Religion-undoubtedly it is through His blessing that we continue existing.
No
complaints of friends, nor complaints of this time
His Eminence possesses many excellent qualities, his formality, his pleasant manner of discourse/mannerism, his sincerity, his love and affection is unforgettable. His traditional education was acquired at Darul Uloom Manzare Islam and Darul Mazhare Islam in Bareilly Shareef. After completing studies of Hadith at Jaamia Razvia Mazhare Islam, in Faislabad, he obtained his qualification. This highly esteemed Aalim was taught and accepted as a student of honor by leading and distinguished personalities such as Hujjatul Islam Hazrat Muhammad Hamid Raza Khan, Musfassire Quran Hazrat Muhammad Ibrahim Raza Khan (Jilani Mian), Muhaddis-e-Azam Hazrat Muhummad Sardaar Ahmed Qadiri Razvi, Sheikul Hadith Hazrath Taqaddus Ali Khan Qadri Razvi, Adeebe Shaheer Hazrat Shamsul Haq Shams, etc.
His
Eminence obtained Ijaazath (permission, authority from
spiritual master to become a spiritual guide) and Khalifat (an officially appointed representative of the spiritual
master) from numerous Spiritual Masters and Silsilas more
notably Hazrat Mufti Zia-udeen Madani, Hujjatul Islam
Muhammad Mustafa Raza Khan Bareilly.
His
Eminence began his missionary work in 1965 and his patronage
gatherings of spiritually enlightened Halqa Zikrs are held
on a regular base. This celebrated Aalim did not waste his
time. He has no lust for acquiring material things, life in
this world has nothing to lust for-he is more interested in
the betterment of others-to adorn and prepare for the
Hereafter, for him this type of life is fruitful.
Thousands
of servants of Allah are wandering in the lost valley
His Eminence is Jamaali (with attributes of mercy) and not Jalaali (with attributes of anger or wrath), what a beautiful co-incidence that he was born in Jamaal Pur. He spiritually enlightens and mends hearts as he goes along, and does not break hearts. He does not destroy but improves the environment around him. He is not in need to be photographed, but people do. He does not need publicity, name and fame, but ordinary people do.
For the
benefit and guidance of the people the exalted spiritual
leaders are at time compelled to allow some disliked
practices, but it must be remembered that the actions are
dependant on intentions. Almighty Allah knows ones
intentions and the power to pardon. A fakir is one who veils
his true self and depends solely on Almighty Allah.
Makes the person unaware of
both worlds
Strange
things this taste of close friendship is
