NAJMUS SAAQIB Incident Sixty-nine: Shaykh Qasim

Reading Time: < 1 minute

It is also mentioned in that book: A believer from our native
place, named Shaykh Muhammad Qasim, who had performed
many Hajj pilgrimages, narrated that once during the journey to
Hajj after being extremely exhausted I went to sleep under a tree
and continued to sleep till the pilgrims moved on leaving me
alone there. When I awoke I realized that they have gone very far
away. I did not know the route. At last I turned in one direction
and beseeched the Saahebul Amr as follows: O Aba Saaleh, O
Aba Saaleh as Ibne Taaoos has mentioned the method of
beseeching the Imam when one has lost the way in the book of
Amaan. So I was beseeching in that manner when suddenly I saw
a gentleman approach dressed in Arab garments and astride a
she-camel. He said: You have separated from the Hajis, come,
mount behind me so that I may convey you to them. So I
mounted behind and caught up with the caravan shortly. He made
me dismount near it and said: Go on. I said that I was feeling
very thirsty. He gave me his water skin and I drank from it. By God, it was strange sweet and delicious water. When I joined the
caravan, I looked around but after that I could not see him and I
had neither seen him among the Hajj pilgrims before nor did I see
him after that.
