Hazrat Sultan Bahu Life

(THE QUESTION OF HIS OUTWARDLY BAI'AT)

No right clue of the Outwardly Bai'at of Hazrat Sultan ul Faqar Hazrat Sultan Bahu May Allah Sanctify his Secret is found from any source. The right source of these things are his blessed books. Thus, in the book 'Emir ul Konain', his highness says that 'this Faqeer had been travelling in search of the Perfect Murshid for thirty years and now I am in search of a Truthful Seeker'. The writer of Manaqib e Sultani says that he could not find both the Perfect Murshid and the Truthful Seeker. We also agree to this. Some people say that his highness had taken Outwardly Bai'at on the hand of Hazrat Pir Abdul Rahmaan Dehlvi. However, it is matter of great wonder that name of Hazrat Pir Abdul Rahmaan Dehlvi has never been mentioned in his blessed books although his highness has even remembered Sarang Balauch in his books. Moreover, it is also known that Hazrat Pir Abdul Rahmaan Dehlvi was also the companion of court of the King of India, Aurangzeb Alamgir and Aurangzeb Alamgir had requested for Initiation to Hazrat Sultan ul Faqar Hazrat Sultan Bahu May Allah Sanctify his Secret , who (if we say the story of correct) was the Mureed of Hazrat Pir Abdul Rahmaan Dehlvi. Hence, all such stories appear to be out of question. Further, his highness has also expressed his attachment with some Saint from the progeny of Hazrat Shah Muqeem of Hujra in his book 'Ganj ul Asraar'. He says that:

*

Those whose noble progenitors are the Arif Muqeem Rahmatullah Alaihi [the kings of the Station of the Marifat],

Why should they not be acclaimed as the chiefs of the Straight Path?

They have the honor [of receiving the beneficence] from that Ba Wisaal Laa'l Bahawal,

O you with distraught condition! Do not let inappropriate thoughts come to your heart on seeing his [simple] grave,

Hence, one can rightly conclude from these things that Hazrat Sultan ul Faqar Hazrat Sultan Bahu May Allah Sanctify his Secret visited the courts of many Murshideen during thirty years of his Demand and earned a great deal of blessings from them. These include Hazrat Pir Abdul Rahmaan Delhvi and the Saints of Hujra Shah Muqeem. He was Initiated on his blessed hand by the overlord of cosmos Hazrat Muhammad Sall-Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihee Wassallam himself in the Inward and Hazrat Mahboob e Subhani, Qutab e Rabbani, Ghaus e Samadani Hazrat Shaikh Muhyiddeen Sayyed Muhyiddeen Sayyed Abdul Qadir Jelaani (May Allah Sanctify his Secret) gave him his Talqeen by virtue of which, his highness Drowned into the Zaati Ocean of the Anwaar of Allah Almighty and he achieved the nonstop Hazoori in the Majlis of the Holy Prophet Sall-Allahu Alaihi Wa Aalihee Wassallam. We have already elaborated in previous pages of this book that the word 'Haq Bahu' becomes current on the tongues of the Seekers automatically and some dry tempered jealous people become harsh on hearing this blessed word 'Haq Bahu' and say that saying these word of 'Haq Bahu' are not legitimate on grounds of Shariyat. These people are not aware of the reality of the Haal.
