Haroon
wept so much that he fell unconscious. Fazal
Barmaki humbly requested the
Shaikh
that 'O Shaikh! Please halt (and intervene)! You have killed the Emir
of
State'. Haroon's crying increased further with these words and he then said 'O
Fazeel! You are Hamaan
and I am Pharaoh'. Then Haroon asked 'I have come to
know that you
are under burden of some
debt'. 'Yes, I am under great debt of my lord' he replied. 'If I do not
relinquish this loan in my life, great pity should be mine'. Haroon explained
that he was asking him about the debts owed to people. He replied that 'thanks
to Allah
Almighty as His bounties are in abundance with me'. Haroon took out a
bag containing a thousand Dinar
and humbly put before him and said 'this thing
I have got as share from my father's possessions. This is Halaal. If you honor
to accept these and spend for your needs, there should be nothing to object'.
Shaikh
Sahib took a deep cold sigh and said 'Ah! My advice falls flat on you
and it stands ineffective on your part. Here too, you have started injustice
and have become outrageous. I bring you to deliverance and forgiveness but you
are weaving the stuff of my destruction and ruin. I say you to give all that
you possess to the rightful while you are giving the possession of outsider to
that person who deserves not to accept it. O Haroon! Be shameful and fear God'.
Saying this, he stood up and shut his door for Haroon. Haroon, with tears in
eyes, left that place and said to Fazal
Barmaki 'Mardaan e Khuda
use to be as
Hazrat
Fazeel Bin Eyaaz Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe
is!'
Abyaat e Jamali:
Like
Ahraam, one piece of cloth for upside and one for downside is the need of
Dervish,
His heart should be free of the worries of sustenance and clothing,
A
mat or piece of animal hide is enough to lay,
And
his heart, a deserted chamber, should be thriving with the ache of Love of his
Friend,
These much possessions and holdings are,
Just
sufficient to Jamali and every improvident man!

The
Saints of the religion of older times were the True-Seekers of Allah
Almighty
and were truthful Saalikeen. They were rich in Inwardly
wealth and spiritual
affluence. That was the reason that their hearts were free from the love for
world and gave no worth to it. Moreover, their hearts did not possess any
respect and regard to the worldly people. They were all the time engaged into
the study of death. Life of world was just observed as a dying thing like a
reverie and dream in their truth finder foreseeing sights. The living and
frequented (and thriving) world of the eternal abode of the Hereafter
was truly
visioning in their eyes. What parity can be in the unreal and mortal life of a
dream and the living wakeful eternal life? Throne of dream is costly even if
bought by a penny.
No
matter if you have tasted all tastes of life,
And have spent happy hours all the life with your beloved,
But when the clock of the time of death will chime,
It
will all look like a dream which you had been watching.
[Khayyam]
It
is famous that a prince came to Hazrat
Shaikh Shibli
Rahmatu-Allahe Ta-aala Alaihe and gifted some bags of
gold coins in his honor saying that 'O Hazrat! I have given up Dunya
(World)
today and this is all my savings and possessions that I have brought to you. It
is on your disposal Sir and please make me your Seeker
and show the Course
towards Allah
Almighty and deliver me to that Rightful Beloved'. Hazrat
Shaikh
loaded those gold coins on his head and accompanied his one Dervish
with him
and ordered 'go and throw these in River Dajla (Tigris)'. He returned to Shaikh
after throwing those coins in the river and informed him that he has done as
advised and now he should be entered as his servant and let him serve.
