"The tomb is situated north of the village Baghbanpura. There are signsof two tombs on high platform, one of Madho and the other of LalHusain, the actual tombs being in an underground chamber. Theplatform is surrounded by a wall with a gateway to the south. Betweenthe platform and the surrounding wall is a space left for the devoteesto go round,—the platform being lined on all sides with lattice-work of red stone. North of the enclosure is a tower in which is reverentiallykept the impression of the prophet’s feet

(Qadam-i-Rasul)

and to thewest is a mosque. This mosque was constructed by Mora, aMuhammadan wife of Ranjit Singh.

34

La1 Husain appears to have had friendships among the holy men of his time. He was an intimate friend of Chajju Bhagat who, thetradition says, called him Shah Husain for the first time.

35

He metGuru Arjun whenever he came to Lahore. We, however, cannot findany historical evidence to support the assertion of Baba Buddh Singh,who states that when Arjun was compiling the

Adi Granth,

Husainsubmitted his verses to him for inspections but the Guru, disapprovingthem, refused to insert them in the

Granth.

36

Husain’s poetry, if wemay be permitted to say so, is in no way inferior to that of manyothers found in the body of the

Granth,

nor would a free Sufi likeHusain care to have his verses inserted in the book of a sect then notso popular as it was to be alter a few years."page 39

about murshid of bulleh shah inyat

"

The arias

according to all available, information, appear to be Indian Muslimsand Shah Inayat was born in one such well-to-do family. The date andyear of Inayat’s birth are not known, but one of his manu scri pts,containing an endorsement in his own handwriting and also his seal,bears the date A.H. 1110

21

(A.D. 1699). From this we can concludethat he was a contemporary of Aurangzeb and perhaps saw a part of the reign of Shah Jahan. The Wazaif-i-Kalan

gives the year of hisdeath as A.H. 1147 (A.D. 1735) during the time of EmperorMuhammad Shah.

22

He was educated after the manner of his time andgained a good knowledge of Persian and Arabic. As he was born witha mystic disposition he became a disciple of the famous Sufi scholarand saint Muhammad Ali Raza Shattari.

23

After he had finished hisstudies he was created a

khalifa.

Later on he received the

khilafat

of seven other sub-sects of the Sufi Qadiri. Soon after this event he leftKasur and migrated to Lahore .The author of

Bagh-i-Awliya-e-Hind

says that the great enmity of the Hakim Husain Khan compelled himto migrate,

24

but his descendants assert that it was the order of histeacher that brought him to Lahore.

25

Here after having quelled thejealousy of his famous contemporaries, he established a college of hisown. To this college came men of education for further studies inphilosophy and other spiritual sciences of the time.

26

The Doctrines of Inayat Shah

The Qadiris of the Panjab were famous for their philosophic studies. Itwas their influence that had converted prince Dara Shikoh.

27

Theywere very much inclined towards Hindu philosophy. Shah Inayat wasno exception to this rule. He was a man of scholarly disposition, andwrote several books, as well as commentaries upon the works of hispredecessors. In his

Dastur-ul-Amal

28

he described the different

methods employed for the attainment of salvation

29

by the Hindus of ancient times. These various methods he classes in different groups—the seventh and the last group, according to him, being efficacious toprocure for seeker the spiritual stage of

Parma-Hamsa.

Thisknowledge, Inayatbelieved, was carried by the Greeksoldiers of Alexander the Great to Greece, from where it was borrowed by themystics of Islam."

A single word can brighten the face

of one who knows the value of words.

Ripened in silence, a single word

acquires a great energy for work.

War is cut short by a word,

and a word heals the wounds,

and there's a word that changes

poison into butter and honey.

Let a word mature inside yourself.

Withhold the unripened thought.

Come and understand the kind of word

that reduces money and riches to dust.

Know when to speak a word

and when not to speak at all.

A single word turns the universe of hell

into eight paradises.

Follow the Way. Don't be fooled

by what you already know. Be watchful.

Reflect before you speak.

A foolish mouth can brand your soul.

Yunus, say one last thing

about the power of words --

Only the word "I"

divides me from God. - Yunus Emre

(1238 - 1320)
