Love of Rasulullah

Companion Hazrat Sayyiduna Anas narrated that the Rehmat ul lil Alameen, the Holy Prophet (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) said, “Anyone from amongst you, cannot be a true believer [momin] until I am more dearer to him than his father, his children and all the people.” (Sahih Bukhari, pp. 17, Hadis 14, vol. 1)

Ameer e Ahle Sunnat Hazrat Allama Maulana Ilyas Qadri’s life is an embodiment of following the Sunnahs because of his deep rooted and profound love for the Makki Madani Mustafa (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him). Ameer e Ahle Sunnat Hazrat Allama Maulana Ilyas Qadri is, therefore, known as Ashiq e Madinah [Devotee of Madinah].

He has often been observed to be incessantly shedding tears and at times becomes so restless in devotion to the Makki Madani Mustafa (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) that the observer involuntarily begins to shed tears on seeing such out-pour of love. His ecstatic condition is beyond words during the Ijtima [congregations] of Zikr remembering Allah and the Naat poem recitals.

In the quest of the footprint of the Holy Prophet (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) Is the tear drop of my eye which has departed?

First Invitation of His Wedding

Ameer e Ahle Sunnat Hazrat Allama Maulana Ilyas Qadri sent the first invitation of his wedding to the Noble Prophet (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him). How this came to pass is that he handed an invitational letter to an Islamic brother who was going to the Holy City of Madinah who read it out before the Golden Grill at the sacred court of the Holy Prophet (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him). Ameer e Ahle Sunnat Hazrat Allama Maulana Ilyas Qadri later commented, “At the time of my Nikah I was longing and thinking as to when the Exalted Prophet (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) will grace us with his presence. It was the blessings of these unique and captivating thoughts that the wedding ceremony took place righteously (whereas people, at large, have been observed to infringe upon and violate the sacred Islamic laws during marriage ceremonies).”
