Sheikh Ahmad Sirhindi is a resident of Sirhind, present day India, he is from the Syed family of the poor middle class, as many people as educated scholars, philosophers were born in the entire subcontinent, Muslim or Hindu, Christian or Buddhist people like him, intelligent, true and reliable in my view. He was a soldier of the Mughal era army in the beginning, he was a very hardworking, good and honest man, he had a great passion for study, observation and research, he answered every question in his correspondence, and he was the best of all educated people in every battle. Scholars of all faiths, Christians, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, Parsis and Dahriyyas, debated with him and received answers to their letters. He assured the scholar that Allah is really running the system of this universe. Sheikh Sahib also explained that every powerful person has a limit. Every poor and humble teacher professor cannot rise above his standard and his poverty It cannot fall down from the exalted stage, even when time and moments are bright sun and solar eclipse and lunar eclipse are imposed, time and time cannot go back and forth in spite of such a great intelligence. When he failed, he decided to travel to Hijaz with the intention of performing Hajj Umrah to gain inner knowledge
Sheikh Ahmad Sirhandi Darwish
Sheikh Ahmad Sirhandi says that my father was an old man and I was engaged in acquiring esoteric knowledge under his shadow, but luckily he died before I could complete it. He was a poor man who was fed up with the grace of the Chishtiyya family. Before his death, he ordered the Chishtiyya dervishes to be clothed. And understand that in order to get this fact, I wanted to make a journey towards Madinah, because by going there, I would have found out how it is possible to gain inner knowledge after the Prophet, but I was surprised who is this in my dream, a man, a young man. It was seen that he was saying in a dream, Sheikh Ahmed Sahib, if you want to see Allah and seek Allah's pleasure, then come to my shelter.
Meeting with Sheikh Ahmad Sirhandi and Hazrat Baki Bila
Sheikh Ahmad Sirhandi says that when I started preparing for Madinah-Pak Hijaz, that night I saw a twenty-two-year-old young man in a dream and he was saying that Sheikh Sahib should go ahead with me and then the second night before departure. I met the same young man and he told me that I also belong to the Fakir Dervish family, a resident of Delhi. On the third night, I saw the same thing in my dream. I left for Delhi from India and reached the city of Delhi. I visited Khwaja Nizamuddin Auliya Chishtiya for two nights. Then I also mentioned my dream that there is a twenty-two-year-old poor man in Delhi, the mace of Khwaja Nizamuddin Auliya. Nashin replied that I don't see any such person, but Ahmad Sirhandi Sahib, you should go and meet Sohar Wardi Gad Nashin, maybe he has some information about this person. I thought that there is a twenty-two-year-old young pauper in Delhi
Hazrat Baki reached the Astana of Bala
The religious elders of Delhi gave me a pious guide, then he took me to a very poor hermitage outside the city of Delhi and went back. I asked one of them where the old man was, he pointed me towards the door of a room, then I went towards it. He was exactly the same person whom I saw in my dream in Sirhind. Then I went ahead and was blessed by Sharaf Ziarat. He asked me two or three questions. Who are you, the traveler? He asked me how I came here. He asked me the second question. I answered, he asked the third question about your house. Then where do you want to go? I said that I am going to Hijaz to visit you. The old man replied that if you want my house, you will have to stay in this hermitage for two months and take my company. I was surprised. happened and asked him, O Hazrat, how is this possible, then he replied, Sirhindi Sahib, after reading the kalma, complete faith is necessary, when we can give you consciousness, faith, then you will be allowed, I felt the truth in his words and After abandoning the trip to Madinah, I stretched my hands forward for Bait, then this man Qalandar made me his mureed and my inner training began. This person sent me away and told me that I am your mentor, I am a fakir of the Naqshband family.
