PART 28: Qadambosi to Sa'adat
Following interview of Mulla Huzefabhai Laheri, Dubai, by Sakina Sh Noman Miyajiwala and Mudar Patherya
As a member of the Burhani Guards Committee I was on a 24-hour duty outside the daarul imaarat during Huzurala’s 58-day ashara Dubai visit, hijri 1425.
On 1 Safar morning when Aqa Maula had gone to the Sharjah masjid for a khushi ni majlis, two BG members were outside the daarul imaarat in Dubai and another two were attending to food arrangements. Suddenly, Mudarbhaisaab informed us that Maula would be returning in 15 minutes. We requested for an opportunity for talakki; he consented. When Maula arrived, Janab Kinanabhaisaab alighted from the car, did talakki followed by Mudarbhaisaab, three BG members and myself. I did the talakki from the bungalow gate till the lift inside. In that brief minute, I told Maula about all (!) my financial difficulties. Maula did not say a word; he looked at me and went inside.
That night I had a dream in which I saw Maula in the qadambosi bethak on the second floor of the Najmi Hall (facing daarul imaarat inside the Burhani Masjid complex). I saw myself placed as a volunteer on the left of Maula. Maula looked at me and indicated I perform the qadambosi. Since I did not have any money, another BG member handed me an envelope. When I kissed Maula’s hand, he merely said ‘Raqam kum chhey.’ Then the dream faded.
On the next evening while Maula was returning from a ziyafat, I submitted my arzi of the dream sequence. When Maula passed me, he did not even look at the arzi that had been written on the paper; he directly asked if I had got remaining amount.
Janab Kinanabhaisaab advised me to do salaam of Dh 52. The following day, Huzurala, while returning from ziyafat, asked again: ‘Raqam laya chhey?’ This time I said ‘Jee, Maula’ and he extended his hand and I received the sharaf of qadambosi while he was walking towards the bungalow.
The amazing thing is that all my difficulties gradually disappeared. I prospered remarkably within a short period and sent 10 mumineen for Kerbala ziyarat and purchased properties in India.
And all it took was one qadambosi!
