“After offering the prayers, I prayed to Allah that O my Lord! May not this problem deviate me from the right path. With what face I shall appear before you if I will not remain a safe custodian. My Lord, my faith is in danger. For the sake of your blessings, please save me from the devil.”
Respected Hakim Sahib, Assalam o Alaikum ! I was honoured to meet you last year in the meditation centre. I listened to your Dars and the lecture, every word of which touched my heart. Ladies of the neighborhood used to deposit their belongings for safe custody with my mother. After her demise, I had to take this responsibility. I tried to resist but the ladies insisted me to continue with safe deposit of their jewelry and cash etc. When my financial conditions were disturbed, one day I considered taking some money from the deposited one and putting it back after sometime. I thought as to how anyone will come to know as nobody appeared to be planning to take it back soon since they had kept their belongings under my custody either for their daughters’ marriages or due to fear of theft etc. While I was thinking this, Zohar’s azan was recited and so I offered my prayers. During the prayers also, my mind was preoccupied with the thoughts as to whether I should take the money or should I refrain from it for breaking somebody’s trust and that I cannot do it without seeking one’s permission. But I could not find it appropriate to ask for permission as it could hurt my ego. After offering the prayers, I prayed to Allah that: “O my Lord! May not this problem deviate me from the right path. With what face I shall appear before you if I will not remain a safe custodian. My Lord, my faith is in danger. For the sake of your blessings, please save me from the devil. My Lord please save my faith” I kept on praying the same the entire day. At the time of Asar, my father received a phone call that there is some old map with him. They were calling him to submit the map and take away its price although there was no complainant in this case. The SHO personally paid for the map. That day my faith in Almighty strengthened to the greatest extent and my belief was reinforced as undoubtedly the kingship only belongs to Almighty alone.

Respected Hakim Sahib, Assalam o Alaikum ! For the first time, I am submitting my incident for Ubqari. I hope the readers would like it. On an afternoon in February 2012, our power supply went off as it usually happened. But that day it went off at 7:30 in the afternoon and when it will be restored was not known. After offering Isha prayers, me my family did the Wazaif as per your instructions and then went to sleep. Early morning at about 5 o’clock, my mother informed me that water has finished in the tank. She told me to change the wires and switch on the motor. I did so and then lied down again. When I got up it was 5:55. I hurried up and observed ablution. When I was drying up with a towel, a voice from inside told me to first carry out washing after defecation. Then another voice said it’s alright, offer Sunnats of Fajar prayers, there’s very less time left, the prayers will commence at 6:10. But I followed the first voice, carried out washing of genitals and then observed ablution. Then I offered my Sunnat prayers at home and recited Ayat al Kursi and with Durood Sharif in the beginning and at the end followed by the pray for leaving home. While I rushed to the mosque for Fajar prayers, I pleaded Allah that I am offering my prayers at the mosque with Jamaat for a long time and today I am late since I left at 6:08. I may not miss the prayers. I begged Allah for his blessings and mercy as he is the most beneficent and merciful. Readers! Believe me that when I reached the gate of the mosque, I found the Moazzan standing in the compound. I did not talk to him and went inside the mosque where I came to know that Qari Sahib has not yet arrived. I sat down. It was 6:11. After a while, Qari Sahib arrived and I offered my prayers with the Jamaat.
