Biography
His name is Tamim Ansari and his father’s name is Yu-Aar ibn Asim al-Ansari and in this magazine have
mentioned many of his details of
millions of characters and conducts as well as his endeavors and miracles are
available in it. He was a famous companion of the last prophet of Allah (SALLAHU
ALAI WASALLAM). Syedna Hazrat Tameem ibn Yu-Aar Al Ansari (Razi allah tala anhu)
was born in Madina Tul-Munawara and joined in
the Islamic religion in the city
of Makkah before the migration of the last prophet
Mohammed (SALLAHU ALAI WASALLAM) to the city of Madina. He belonged to the
tribe of al-Najjar and his father was Yu-Aar Al Ansari. He is one among 313 Sahabas
(companions) who participated in
the battle of the Badr. He stayed
in the world of Jinns (A'lam-ul-Jinn) to teach Jinns about the teaching and
preachings of the Islamic religion for a period of five years, which was
commanded by the prophet of Allah before
his visit to the region of the Jinns,
and he was gifted with a holy ring which was bearing
"Asma-ul-zalzalooth" by the prophet Mohammed (SALLAHU ALAI WASALLAM) and he was told that
it would be on his holy finger till the day of judgment, when he meets the last prophet of Allah in Mahshar Maidan.
The reporters of right sayings and
informers of the newspaper of the truth
have been informed in this matter that once Hazrat Umar bin Khattab (razi allah tala anhu) was sitting in the grand of the mosque of the
prophet in Madina after the morning prayer of Fajr along with his friends and
companions and suddenly at that time one
woman in veil was arriving there and she
was asked about the Hazrat Umar bin Khattab(razi allah tala anhu) and the people have pointed
towards him. That woman told him that “Oh the ruler of the Muslims my husband
is absconding since three and a half years and his where about are not known
and till now it is not known the news about his
life and death. So I am facing great problems to bring up the children
in this matter, so I request you to
kindly allow me to re-marry with some other person.” The caliph of the last prophet, Allah has asked her “Who
was his husband ?, and how he was vanished away from Madina.?” That woman told
that “My husband’s name is Tamin Ansari and he was vanished away from the house
since three and half years suddenly and
she has been searching him since for
three and half years and but still she could not able to get his news and where about in this matter.” The caliph of
the prophet told her that, “ She has not given permission in this matter till
the four years will not be over and during this period your husband may come
back or there will be any news on this matter from any side.” The woman began
crying and wept very much and she has
requested, “ Oh caliph of the Muslims how she will maintain and bring up the
children of Tamim Ansari and she is poor and helpless and she did not have any
Dirham with her so how she will pass the period of the four years.?” The caliph
of the Muslims told her that, “ You do not worry for the expenses of the bringing up of the
children as she will be given money from the Baital Mall (public treasury) as
per the requirement in this matter. So go and take care of the children and in
reality Allah will solve all problems of the men.” In short, that woman was
returned back to her home in happy
condition and she has spent a period of four years in waiting of the husband in
her house. After the end of the four years she goes to see the caliph of the
prophet again and she said “ Oh caliph of the Muslims now four years have been
completed and now give her permission to re-marry and he told her that she
should complete further more four months and come back and see him. At last
this period was also have been ended and
during this period also his husband‘s where about and news were not found by
her. So she went into the presence of the caliph of the Muslims and she said
“Oh caliph of the last prophet that now she could not have patience in this
matter. And at that time some persons were present there. The caliph told in the loud voice “ Is anybody is there
who can marry this woman.?” So one person
among them was standing and he
said he can marry with her woman. At
that time the man of caliph of the prophet
married that woman with the man there. Then that woman and husband along
with children were began living in the happy condition.
One day that man was performing Asar
evening prayer and at that time there was loud and cry was begun in the house.
He completed his prayer and was asked her wife about this matter that whether there is good news and with whom she is fighting in the house
and who was entered into the house. The woman has told that see there is
standing one person in the naked condition there and the young man stood and
went near the naked person and was asked
him in the angry condition who are you?, and why did he enter into his house
without any permission.? It seems that your ill luck has brought you here.? So
you should leave my house urgently otherwise there will be bad consequences in
this matter. Upon hearing this that naked person entangle with the young man and fighting was started in between both of them there in
the house. The pious woman was began loud and crying and she said “Oh neighbors
come on soon someone is killing my husband. It may be the same Devil who was
taken away my first husband. Now he came
there gain, and while becoming the enemy of my second husband.”
The`neighbouring persons upon hearing loud and cry and they run towards their house and entered
into the house and with much difficulty and problem they have separated
fighting of the two persons in the house. The neighboring persons was taken
away Tamim Ansari and have asked him to tell truly who are you? And which place
he belongs.? And what is your name.?,. And that naked person told them that “
He is Tamim Ansari and he is the husband
of this woman and all children are belong to him. He was involved in many
problems and due to the grace and help
of Allah, he was able come back again to
Madina.” Due to this problem long time was passed away and night was started so
the neighbours have advised both of them
to live in patience during the night and in the morning they should appear in
the presence of the caliph of Muslims Hazrat Umar Bin Khattab to represent their case for the settlement
there and tell him their whole story
and get his kind order on this
matter and act upon it. In short the whole night was passed in the fighting
also with each other and for this reason nobody could not sleep in this house
for this problem.
In the morning all of them went into the kind presence of Hazrat Umar
bin Khattab(razi allah tala
anhu) in the grand mosque of the prophet in Madina and have been telling him
their stories there. Then Hazrat Umar bin Khattab(razi
allah tala anhu) have asked that naked person “What is your name and the place
of his residence.?” That person told him that “His name is Tamim Ansari and he
is a resident of Madina city. Whether
you are forgetting your friend and this woman is my wife and all these children
belong to him and he is their father.” The woman told Umar bin Khattab (razi allah tala anhu) that “This man is a lair and where is the man and
where is the devil.
So why she belongs to his wife.
And how he will be her husband for this reason. During the whole night he has
annoyed us and caused problem to all
persons in our street. He is becoming an enemy
of my husband and want to kill him on this matter.” That naked person
told him, “ Oh, ruler of the
Muslims what happened to you that you
are not recognizing him and he is not hearing his story on this matter and you
are hearing the talk of the woman.” Then
the ruler of the Muslim told him “What
you are saying and I know very well and
I am looking towards him. Tamim Ansari in fact was his companion and his image
is there in my mind, but no sign of him is not found in you so without
investigation then how he can take any decision on this matter. So prove your
identity and submit any witnesses.” Upon hearing this the naked person told
that “His witness is Hazrat Ali bin Abu
Taleb and he will recognize him surely. The biggest reason of recognizing on
this matter is that the prophet of Allah (SALLAHU ALAI WASALLAM) was telling
about my condition.You take me to him and he will recognize me. Hazrat Umar bin
Khattab (razi allah tala anhu) stood immediately and along with all other persons he was
reaching in the presence of Hazrat Ali bin Abu Taleb (razi allah tala anhu)
and he said Assalam Alaikum Ali and Hazrat Ali(razi allah tala anhu)
replied his Salam and Hazrat Ali told
him “Whether there is everything
good and
why you have reached to see him in the early morning with so many
persons there.” Hazrat Umar bin Khattab(razi
allah tala anhu) told him “He was brought into your
presence this strange creature.”Hazrat Ali upon looking the strange creature told him “Are you not
Tamim Ansari?”, and that person told him “Yes, I am Tamim Ansari your old
friend. He was in his presence after a period of seven and a half years. He was
in the prison of the Devil so for this
reason he was upset and worried for his life. And for this reason he was
reached to this condition and his condition was changed so nobody is not
recognizing me and even nobody did not believe that I am a human being.” Hazrat
Ali told all of their friends to sit down and from him to hear his story. This
man came back here after seeing many strange things as well great wonders of
the world. It is happening that one day prophet of Allah told that after me
there will be rise many strange things in the world. Among them there will be
one story of Tamim Ansari. Upon saying this Hazrat Ali bin Abu Taleb asked
Tamim Ansari dear friend tell your story
and what did happen to you?, and what you
seen the great wonders?, and which
places you have visited in your journey?.” He told “Oh, ruler of the Muslims
what I have seen the things in the wake up condition which were not seen such
things by any person in the dream.” Hazrat Ali told him “To tell the whole
story.” He began his story as follows.’
“That one day I have done intercourse with
my wife and after its completion and I asked with my wife to bring soon water
so that he will have bathing as the prophet of Allah has said that one who have
done intercourse then he should have bathed
soon and become clean as this is a time of overwhelming of the Satan.
Usually an un-bathed person in this matter will involve intricacy and problem
and for this reason he will face difficulty in this respect. My wife for the sake of the joke told at that time “Oh Devil takes him away from there ” and
upon saying this she went to bring water. He was sleeping in the upper storey and suddenly one Devil
came there and took me towards the sky
and I have reached at the highest level and from where the earth seen
like a clod. Due to divine power of
Allah one piece of the cloud was touched with the neck of the Devil and due to
this reason there was pressing on the neck of the Devil and for this matter
Devil began getting down while closing his eyes
and he was dipped in the big sea and at that time my condition was such
that due to fear I was stopped taking breath and I was becoming helpless there
and there was no hope for me that I will be free from the claw of the Devil. He
began taking me some time in the light
and sometime in the darkness and suddenly the Devil freed me from his hold so I
was becoming unconsciousness and falling down to the earth. When I was came back
in consciouness and opened my eyes
and I was found myself in the huge garden where there were many thousand trees of
fruits were there and there were available water springs everywhere and there
was a cold breeze was moving in the garden and there was mild fragrance was
found every where and due to this reason there came life again in my dead body
and it was like that there was no more tiredness in me and there was happiness
and joy in my heart and there was created light in my eyes and due to such reasons heavenly atmosphere
was found there. So I stood immediately and watch here and there and but could
not find anybody there. I have desired which ever fruit and plucked and eaten
there and in such condition I went towards one side. At one place I was looking
suddenly at one creature and which did
not belong to human beings. Then I was able to know that these creatures belong
to Devils and surely they will kill me there. Then I told “Oh Allah you have
now given safety from one cruel Devil and after that other problem from another
creature came there. So give me salvation from this creature also. Due to fear
of the Devils I was hiding in the clump of the trees and was there for a period
of two days. Even though there was no trouble from them for me, but I was
shivering due to their fear and problems.
On the third day two persons came there and said Salam to me and asked me “Who
are you?, and how you have reached there.?”. I have replied them that “He is a
human being and I do not know which is
this place.? And the black Devil brought
him there.” They told me that “They are
in the fifth region of the world and it
is the countries of the devils.” They told me that “My house is 5,000 miles
away from there.” Oh the rulers of the Muslims when I heard this then there was
the condition of the unconsciousness which prevailed upon him. I think that if
I will be going out of this country and then my age will be very short for this
reason so I could not able to return back to my house in Madina. There was no
more hope with me to reach back into my house in my country. When I became
conscious then I was going back in my previous place and sat there. In one
night It happens such that I was heard many kinds of the sounds in my ears and
there was very much loud and cry. Due to fear I was climbing on a tree and after some time I was seen from there that
many horse riders while holding naked swords
in their hands were coming there and it was an army of the fairies. When
they reached there they attacked on the Devils in the night upon them. The
Devils also prepared for the counter attack with holding the weapons in their hands and get ready for
the fight with the army of the fairies and battle was started there. Oh, ruler
of the Muslims there was severe fighting was among them, which I was not seen
before by my eyes. At last Muslim fairies were able to successfully in the
fight and infidel Devils were killed. When the successful army was passed from
me and there I was seen that one fairy was riding on the horse and emerald and rubies
were fixed there in the saddles. In the bridle of the horses there was
fixed rubies and jewelries. The fairy
who was the rider of the horse
was just like flying in the air. Suddenly the queen, fairy was looking
at me and stopped her horse and she asked me, “I believe that you a human
being and who have brought you there.” I
stood immediately from the ground and kissed the foot the Queen fairy on the
horse. I have explained her all details of events to her and began weeping
there and told her that since long period of time he has been away from his household and do
not have any power to reach back into my house in my city. The queen fairy became very kind to me and told me that I
should not be sad in this matter and she
instructed one fairy to arrange one horse for my riding. When there was
arrangement of the horse, then I was along with them in the third region of the
world, where there was a residence of the queen fairy. The throne of the queen
fairy was shining with the jewels of the rubies, emerald and rubies of Yemen and
she was sitting on the throne and large army was standing before her while folding their
hands. Due to the kindness and favour the queen fairy was calling me there and
she asked me to sit on the royal throne. She asked my name and I told her my
name Tamim Ansari and she was asked about my country. I told her that I belong
to Madina, the city the prophet Mohammed
(SALLAHU ALAI WASALLAM). When she heard all details then, she becomes very
happy and she asked me “Whether he had
seen the last prophet of Allah.?” I told her that “He was in the service of the
felicity of the last prophet for a long period of time.” Upon hearing this she
said “ Oh Allah, there is thousand thanks to You that these eyes have seen pure prettiness of
the prophet and You have given her a
chance to see such eyes. Upon saying this she kissed my eyes and she has asked
whether the last prophet still living there in Madina city.?” I told her the
prophet left Madina city to meet his great friend in another world. Upon hearing this queen fairy was sad in this
matter and she was began weeping in loud voices for this reason, and along with
her all courtiers were also began weeping in the louder voices. After sometime
queen fairy told me, “Oh Tamim Ansari,
for me you are like my adopted son. I have seven sons with me and they
are unaware of the holy book of Allah. I have the desire with me that you for
the sake of god and for sake of mediation of the last prophet of Allah teach my
children the holy Quran and I will fulfil your desire as per your fate in this
matter and there will be no excuse in this matter.” So I told her that “I have
accepted her offer.” So she was given orders to bring one horse and asked me to
ride on it and she was asked two fairies to accompany with me and to take me to
the residence of the children of the queen fairy and he will be there along
with them and teach my children holy book of Quran there. And see that there
will be no complaint for his hospitality and
try to please him and after one
week she will come there and visit my children
and if there will be some difficulty caused to him then I will give
severe punishment to both of you. “Oh the ruler of the Muslims the speed of the
horse is very fast so it is very hard and difficult to describe its speed in
this matter. Due to such speed and flight I was becoming unconscious so I could
not know where I was going. At one place they get me down and then I opened my
eyes and I was gaining my consciousness there and I had noticed that it was
time of later afternoon Asar prayer so I have done ablution (Bath/Ghusul) and
prayed there. At that time the children and relatives of the queen fairy came
to see me and they have paid very much respect and honour for me and they
presented many kinds of valuable gifts to me. The children of the queen fairy
asked me “When did you depart from the place of our mother.?” I told
them that “ I left that place after praying Fajr prayer and reached here at the
time of Asar prayer.” They asked me “Do
you know how much distance you have covered during this journey.” I told
him them that “I think that I have
covered more than 40 or 50 Farlong (one Farlong = one league=3 miles). All of
them laughed for this and they said “Dear sir, you have covered journey of the
one region of the earth and as per human speed standard it is a journey of 1000
years. There are four such regions are
there upon this region in which human being used to reside in the those
regions.” So hearing all these details I was surprised in this matter, there
was so much strange thinking came into my mind. With patience, I started
teaching of the Quran to children of the queen fairy. After one week queen
fairy came there and she has called me in her palace and paid very much
attention and favour for me and she has asked about the teaching details of the
Quran to her children there. I have informed her about the details of the
teaching of the holy Quran during this period to the children of the queen
fairy. In this way she used to come there and check the teaching of the Quran
on the children. One day when the teaching of the Quran of the boys was over
and queen fairy was coming there and on that night I have seen a dream and for
this reason I was very upset and worried and due to dream I began weeping
there. Suddenly my weeping voice reached to the palace of the queen fairy and at that time she has called her
caretakers and heralds and asked them to check “Why, the man who belong to
human beings is weeping and so check on
this matter why he is weeping and find out reason in this matter whether
somebody was given him trouble to him so
he is weeping in this matter. So inquire all matter in this matter and bring
that man before me.” Upon inquiring all details from me they have taken me
towards the palace of the queen, fairy, they have informed the queen fairy that
“Nobody among them did not hurt him and
given any trouble. The man is weeping by remembering his children and family
members in his country. Tonight he was seen in his dream his children and his
householders who were standing and visiting
the Mausoleum of the holy last prophet of Allah in Madina city. Upon
seeing them the love of the father was increased and there was
uncontrollable an condition in this
matter and he wants to embrace all of them, but at that time his dream was over
and he could not find them. So for this reason due to the very much grief and
sadness he was begun weeping and crying in this matter.” Upon hearing this
queen fairy was become very kind to him and she told him to inform her “What is
his desire in this situation.” I told her that “ I do not any desire and wish
expect to see my children and my family members in Madina city and also he
wants to visit the holy Mausoleum of the prophet in Madina and so for this
reason he is eager in this matter.” As the queen fairy promised me to send back
to Madina city upon completion of the teaching of the Holy Quran to her
children. Now their Quran reading work was already finished there. By chance my
dream was caused for the fulfillment of queen fairy’s promise for sending back
me to my country. She immediately stood in the throne and due to her kindness
she asked me to hold her hand. So I caught her hand. She has taken me and began
flying in the air.”
“Oh, ruler of the Muslims while flying in
the air we have reached in the forest area and where one fort was there which
was locked. When queen fairy reached near the fort then lock was opened automatically and it was
falling on the earth. The queen fairy was entered in the fort along with me.
What I see there in that fort there that many thousand rooms and verandahs were available there. In every
room there was imprison one devil in it in the iron chains. The queen fairy was
checked each and every room and asked with every devil his name. Due to fear of
the fairy queen all devils began shivering and could not able see her face. At
last the queen fairy reached in the room of the black devil and she was
inspecting his room. Oh, ruler of the Muslims, it is very difficult to describe
the greatness and the horror of the
devil and which is as follows.
1.
Face was like a great tomb
2.
Mouth was like a cave
3.
Height was like a great mountain
4.
Eyes were like lawn of the river basin
5.
Nails were nails of the elephant
He was imprisoned in thick iron chains
and due to seeing of the queen fairy and thinking that whether his
killing will done by the queen fairy so
for this reason he began shivering like a cane. The queen fairy told him that
if you agree for the faithfulness, then agree that next time you will not
disobey our order and always you will abide and fulfil our orders faithfully
and there will no room of any complaint in this matter. Then in that case you
will be freed from the prison, otherwise take warning that you will be killed
here immediately. The Black Devil while folding his hand by lowering his head
he said that in fact he has made his
mistake so I request you to kindly forgive my mistake in this matter. I will
promise that always I will obey your orders and never disobey your
instructions.Upon hearing this talking queen fairy told him that I bestow
kindness upon your worst condition.
Well, I will free you on one condition, that as you have brought this man from
Madina and you have separated him from his family members. Now you should only
take him back to Madina and upon sending
him back to Madina bring me his acknowledge of his reaching to his country.
The Devil to get release from the prison so for this
reason very soon he was agreed to take
me back from there to Madina city in happy condition and mode. The queen fairy
released the Devil from the prison and she asked me to ride on his neck and she
has taken from his promise to take me to
Madina within a week. Oh the ruler of the Muslims at the time of departure from
there the queen fairy was taught me one supplication which is as follows.
And she told me that “ There is no
guarantee of the promises of the Devils. They involve in the acts of breaking
of the promises and Satanic acts. I will teach a supplication in this matter to
help you against their misdeeds and atrocities so remember it well. If Allah wills due to blessing of this supplication there will be no calamities and dangers and you will be safe and secure in this matter.”
Bismilla ar-Rahman Nirrahim
(In the name of Allah the most
Beneficent and Merciful)
Ya dalil
mutayarhin wa ya ghayas al-mustagsin wa ya mujib dawat al-muztarin wa ya ilahi
al-almin wa khair al-nasirin ba haq eyaaka nabudi yaka nastinwa sallaa wa ala
khair khalaqhe Muhammadin wa elha ajmain berahamatik. Ya arrahma alrahimin.
The queen fairy recited the above
supplication upon me and she said goodbye to me from there. And the devil was
taken me towards sky and and his great flight was started. Suddenly there came
an ill will as well as a bad idea in the heart of the devil so for this reason
he want to throw me towards down side.So I have recited the queen fairy’s
supplication and due to its blessing, Allah had saved me from this problem and
difficulty. Now the devil began angry with me and so for this reason he began
trying to give trouble to me and for this reason he began flying in the air and
some time he began diving in the rivers, but due to blessing of the supplication there was no damage to me
in this matter. Oh, ruler of the Muslims one time that devil was reached at
such higher height in the sky so I have heard the voices of the angles from the
sky. I heard it carefully and the angles were
reciting the following verse from the holy Quran.
Bismilla Ar rahaman Nirrahim (In the
name of Allah the most Beneficent and Merciful)
Wa safat safan wa zajirat zijran
That cursed one due to his
bad habit he began flying higher in height in the sky and the angles throw
fireball at him and so he was burnt down and becoming ashes and due to the blessing
of the supplication (Ayat), I was falling down to the earth safely and
securely and I was in the condition of unconsciousness for a long period of
time. When I was coming back in the normal condition then I was found that due
to the kind grace of Allah, I was in the condition of safe and secured. Oh, leader of the Muslims I
thought that I will be broken into pieces due to my great fall from the sky to the earth and
there will be no particle of the my body will not be found there on the earth.
But Allah kept me safe and secure. In short, I was finding myself in the
desolate jungle and where there was not found any bird and animals. In all four
sides I have tried my best but could not find the way to leave from that jungle
area. Also, there was not found any human beings and any persons. Also, there
was not found any grain for eating and to wear clothes there and as well there
was no water available there. In the jungle there was prevailing rustling of
the winds so I was afraid in this matter
due to fear and danger into the huge jungle area. So for this reason I was
began weeping and crying there. I was weeping very much and made loud and cry
there in the wilderness of the jungle. So told myself that oh Allah what I
should do now there?, and where should I go?, and in such grief and suffering I was seeing an
animal and his legs were like pearls and his beak were like shining ruby and
who was approached towards me and began talking with me. And he said “ Oh Tamim
you, do not worry in this condition of grief and problem and do not lose hope
and trust on Allah.” I told him that “ I was weeping and crying due to
loneliness and helplessness.” Due to surprise, I was seeing that animal and questioned him. “Oh cock who are you.? “
And you have spoken like a human being or whether you belong to group of the
Jins.?,” He told me that “ He did not belong to the category of the Jin or
human begins, but he is an animal and he
has been deputed for this work from the prophet Ishaq (Alaihis Salam.) and my
work is showing the way to the travelers and persons who lost their way and for
hungry passengers I will provide water and food supply. You are a traveler. Who
was lost the way of the journey and you are hungry and thirsty. Now you stood here and I was there in that jungle
for a period of 40 days and nights. I
have eaten many kinds of food of grace there. After forty days I told him that
he wants to go from there and so he should guide me and show the way for my journey. That
animal showed me the way and I was started towards the direction of Qibla
(direction in which the Muslim turn in prayer). By walking on the way I was
reached in the jungle. I was watching two shapeless creatures who are proceeding towards me. When both of
them have reached towards me, I found both
are in the round shape, and they do not have eyes, ears and head as well
as foot and stomach and coming towards
me by rolling down so for this reason I
was surprised so they told me that “Oh
Tamim Ansari be comfortable you will reach surely to your house.” I asked them “Who are you.? Do you belong
category of Jins.?” They have told me that “They belong to the category of
the devils. Allah created us so that on
the day of judgement they will separate
the infidels (kafirs) from the Muslims there and take them to the hell” I told
them, “ Oh the persons of the devils he
was wandering here and there due to worry and problem in the desert of the
death. And I do not know where I am
going and where is my destination.? So help me and guide me towards my final
destination.” They told me that “ I should not leave the direction Qibla (direction in which Muslims turn in prayer) and go directly towards its direction. I said
goodbye to them and went towards the direction of Qibla. There was passed a period the six
months in my walking journey and at the
time of the hunger I used to eat
whatever available in the jungle area and whenever I was tired then used
to sit there into the jungle. But used to ride on the tree and to watch the
grace of Allah that no animals or tigers
and wild creatures did not kill me and given any harm or damage me during my
journey towards my home town Madina city and any wolf did not take me away or any
snake did not bite me in the wilderness of the jungle area. But every wild
animals and dangerous reptiles used to see me and go fled from the spot. By
covering long distance by foot I was reached to a big mountain on which one old pious person was busy in the prayer
there. So I reached near him and upon his finishing his prayer, I said Salam to
him and he replied to my Salam and he told me “ From where you have come
and how you have come to this place.? No
human being did not reach this place by the way of the road on the earth and
every year one boat used to reach this place by way of the sea. When people get
down from the boat then he used to see the human beings at that time.” I told
him “ Oh old pious person I came to this place with the kind help and grace of
Allah, I do not know from which place I was coming there and I do not know
where he is going.?. But I want to go back to my country.” That old pious
person by holding my hand get down from that big mountain and he was taken, me
towards one direction and where he introduced me to one gentleman there and to whom he has explained
all details of the whole story which belong to me. I told him further that “I
was traveling by foot journey since long
period of time and I do not know where I am going.?” That young man given me
the good news that I will reach back to my home city surely and
he will take back to me to my home city
of Madina. Even he will make me a king
of the area so you promised that whatever I will say you should obey and follow
such instructions.” I told him that “ I
promised and obey all his instructions
in this matter.” That young man has taken my hand in his hand and he shakes
it and he told me to stay here and he
was vanished from there. After an elapse
of some time he has brought a tray with
full of many kinds of dishes and sweets and he put the tray before me and I was eating full of
my stomach. When I have eaten many kinds rich food items, then he was asked me
whether still you obey your promise? I
said “Yes.” He said well and he was vanished from there. The next day he was
also brought such kinds of many high
quality food items and sweets in the tray for me. When I was eating many kinds
of the rich food items, then he asked me
whether I was firm on my promised and I told
him, “Yes”. Upon hearing this he was given me one pellet in my hand and
he told that keep it safely. He said “He will put himself in the fire and he
will burn in it. Then you put this pellet on the ashes, then I will become
alive again and I will take you back to his home in your country and I will
give you the seven climes kingdom to
you. I have lots of thanks to him in this matter. In his hand there was rope
also which he was given to me. Then he told me “Oh my friend hold my two feet.” Oh Ali, I have caught his two feet
and he was taken, me and began flying in
the air. In short time we both were
reached on a mountain and its length and breath is very difficult and
not able to describe its details.That person was a magician and who sat me on
the mountain and he was vanished away from there. He came there after some time
and he asked me that “Whether I was firm
on my promise.” I asked him which is this mountain.? He said this is the
mountain of Qafas (Caucasus). Upon hearing I was becoming unconscious of thinking how I will reach back to the
country.? When I was becoming well then I asked him that, “You have promised
that you will take me back to my home town and what you did that you have
brought me on the mountain of Qafas and so why you have not fulfilled your
promise.?” He told me that “I should not worry in this matter. I will surely
take you to the home. So do not object in this matter why he has taken him on
the mountain Qafas. I will give you a kingdom of the seven climes to you. So
you should firm on your promise and hold my two feet firmly.” Upon his saying I
caught his two feet firmly. Then he began flying in the air. For many days and
nights he was continued flying in the air. At last he reached at a cave. I have
seen that there was one door in the cave on it is written Islamic creed in large plain.
(LA
ILAHA ILLALLAH MOHAMMEDUR RASOOLALLA)
Handwriting and he went near the cave’s door and changed
his shape. He asked for me to be firm on the promise. I told him that “I was
firm on my promise. But I do not know who are you and to which places he is
taking. I do not know what you will do for him,?” But he did not reply in this
matter. He went forward and strike the rope on the lock of the door and by
touching of the rope so for this reason
it was opened at once. He took me inside. I have seen in the cave there many
rooms are available it. In every room there is one devil is available there.
When they sallahu alai wasallam us they began angrily and they began to try to
kill both of us. The rope with which lock of the cave opened was shown to them
so for this reason they put down their weapons and stood by lowering their
necks and followed their obedience and submission to him. By leaving them as I
have proceeded further and have reached
a great building which was there and which was built in lavish style and its
description is beyond my ability. In that building there was one throne, which
was laying there and on it there was
sleeping one pious young man in the
finest dress and he is putting one hand on his chest and other hand on his
stomach. In his hand there was one ring in which there were four gems which
were shining brightly. On the four sides of the throne there is one python,
which was sitting there. I was surprised and asked by him, “Who is sleeping on
the throne and all wild animals and birds, python was guarding and taking care
of him there.? He said “Oh Tamim Ansari, he is prophet Suleiman (Alaihis Salam) under his control and authority were all wild animals and birds, python during
his life period and they all also will
be remain under his control and authority after his death. The rope which I was
given to you and which belongs to the magic and with its power of magic it have
kept all things under my control and authority and I have reached up to here.
If I will get the ring, then all things will come under his control and authority.”
That person was thinking like that then at that time one angle came down from
the sky and he hit him with his hand in that person’s neck and for this
his neck was cut and he was falling down
on the ground and blood discharge was started there. Upon seeing this I stood
away from there so that the angel may not kill me. When I have seen him then
find in his look the love and affection,
and there is no look of anger and rage, so for this reason with the feelings of
the fear and worry. I have reached near him and I have asked him “Oh Darwesh
for the god sake tell me and explain me the details of this person to whom you
have killed.?” That person did not take me with him into my house in Madina and
also did not explain me his details and his condition. It is also not known why
he brought me this place. What is this miracle.?” He told me that “ This person
who was more powerful than the devils and fairies. During his life period he
did not become obedient of the prophet
Suleiman (Alaihis Salam) and also he did not present in his service and he
did come there to steal the ring of the
prophet Sulaiman (Alaihis Salam) and for this reason he was killed. So it was
not good of your living with that cursed one and so you throw pellet and the
rope now and in these things there is magic in it and all these things are not
useful for you. The Muslim person should be away from all these things. I am an
angel and as per the command of Allah I came down from the sky. This is prophet
Sulaiman (Alaihis Salam) who is sleeping on the throne. All these things are
kept for his safety and security.” I told him that “God bless you, I am a person who lost the way and away from
the home at a distance of many millions of miles so show me the way to where I
should proceed.” He told me to wear the ring which is there in the hand of that
cursed devil and thrown pellet and a rope and I have gone away on the way which
was shown to me by the angel. By walking a journey of long distance I was
reached to a fort and was entered into
it. What I have seen there that one most beautiful woman who was sitting
there and I have never seen in my life,
such a beautiful and graceful woman before and who was sitting on the throne.
When she looked at me then she was standing and get down from the throne and he said Salam to me and she told to me “
Are you Taimim Ansari.” I told her, “Yes, the devil who was taking you here and
now where he was,?”. I replied her that “He was killed near the throne of the
prophet Sulaiman (Alaihis Salam)” and
then she said that “I think before that he will be killed when he will reach at
that place. I have advised very much in this matter, but he should go to the
palace of the prophet Sulieman (Alaihis Salam), but he did not understand my
advice and he was killed for this reason. At last I have read in her book that
in such and such month and on such and such date at such and such time one
person in such shape and such and such
name who will arrive there and he will
among the companions of the last prophet Mohammed (SALLAHU ALAI WASALLAM) and
from him there will be guidance to me and I will accept the faith of Islam. Now
recite me Islamic read La Ilaha-Illalah Mohammedur Rasool Allah.” She was
reciting the Islamic creed and was become Muslim there. I told her “Oh woman it
seems that you belongs to a category of
the human beings.” She told me “Yes, no
doubt.” Upon hearing I was becoming happy very much in this matter as after a
period of long time I have seen a human being there. Then I asked her “How did
she came there.?” She said that “Her father was king of such and such kingdom
and her mother was queen of that country. She was most beautiful and graceful
woman that like her there was no personality of such beautiful woman was not
found in the whole world. When she was in the stomach of her mother then that
devil who took you towards the throne of the prophet Sulaiman (Alaihis Salam)
and who was killed there and who was becoming a lover of my mother and by
deceive and fraud, he was taken, my mother from the palace and he brought here and my mother told him
that be careful that I am pregnant so do not touch me. Till she will not
deliver baby he should not come near to
her. So for this reason that devil was away from any act of mischief. To see
the kind help of Allah, with which He helps his pious personalities from the
grip and prison of the cruel things. When the time of delivering of the baby
came I was delivered then at that time my mother queen was praying to Allah
that, “She is one of his slave women and who in nothing now and You are the
protector and owner of the respect and honour. Now this devil wants to
intercourse with me and expect You there is nobody is there who can protect and
secure my respect and honour. I seek your help and custody as well protection
and refuge in this matter, so take me towards You from the world so that she
will be safe and secure from the maltreatment of this devil.” The supplication
was accepted in the court of Allah and she was dying there suddenly and in this
way she was left this mortal world with respect and honour due to kind grace
and mercy of Allah. The devil made loud and cry and then he was become silent
and but he was becoming kind and favourable to me. He was taken great care and
attention to my bright up there and his favour and attention towards me was
such that due to his affection for me than all devils and fairies who were faithful
to him were also becoming faithful to me. One good looking person used to come
there in the palace and taught me education and training there. Since long time
she has a desire to see the human being belongs to Islamic religion so that on
his hand, she can accept the religion of
the last prophet Allah. So for reasons
Allah has sent you to her. And Allah
awarded me the wealth of Islamic religion. Now you have to take a rest here for some days as you are
my Islamic brother and your Islamic sister is there in this place. So you teach
me matters of Islamic religions. I stayed there for some days and was
given the information and the rules and
regulation of the Islamic religion to her there. One day I was remembering my
family members and I have a desire to see them. So suddenly stood there and
have intended to proceed from there. I have asked permission from that Islamic
sister. In the beginning she was insisting me not to leave from there. But she
was seeing me in the condition of worry and upset then she told me to stay a
while so that she can call one devil and who will take you towards your city
Madina. So you do not have worry in this respect. Even though your home is very
far away from here, which at a distance of travel of 2040 years, but he will
take you back to your home town sure. Upon hearing such a long distance of my
home town and so for this reason I was
very much worried and for this reason there was the condition of
unconsciousness which prevailed upon me. At that time she was called one devil
there and she told him that “He is my
Islamic brother and he is a resident of
Madina city and she wishes that you take him to his home city.” The Devil told that “Yes and he will take back
him to his home very soon.” She asked
him in “How many days he can take him swiftly to him there.” The devil told her
“Within 3 days time.” When I heard this then there was relief and relax
condition which prevailed upon me. Then she asked me to ride on the neck of the
devil and then she said goodbye to me there and at that time she was instructed
me to recite the supplication which was taught by queen fairy so that due to
the blessing of the supplication you should be safe and secure from every
danger, on your journey, go I have surrendered to you in the custody of Allah.”
That Devil took me to the sky and want to kill me there it means he want to
throw me from the sky. So I began reciting the supplication of queen fairy. Due
to its blessing he could not do any harm to me and he was fallen in the river
and I was falling and standing on the mountain. Then that devil came to me.
So I asked him that, “Why he is trying to kill me there.” Then he told me that
except this there is no way before him. On that way there are many dangers are
there. I asked him “What is there,?” He told me that “On that way there is a
heavy body devil reside there and who is my enemy and when he will find both of us there, then
he will kill us together there.” I told him “What remedies in this matter.” He
told “Except breaking agreement, there is
no excuse in this matter. You give me your ring to me so that due to its
blessing I can defeat that great devil and take you back safely to your
home.”Oh, ruler of the Muslims and oh Ali and I have given that ring from my
finger. The devil puts the finger ring in his mouth and left away from there.
So I was surprised in this matter that what to do and where to go in this hard
situation.? After waiting for some time there in helpless condition I proceed towards in one direction. Upon
passing some distance I have seen one throne of jewels on which a great black
horrible devil like an elephant
and who was keeping his trunk was sitting there. Upon seeing me he want
to kill me. I thought it was better to be killed because I was finding
difficulties and problems in each and every step. So it is now good and be free
to die instead of facing such a large number of problems and difficulties. Due
to thinking of this, I was falling down from the mountain to the earth. Upon
falling I was becoming unconscious there. I was sure that my body will be
broken into pieces after a fall from the huge mountain. When I was becoming in
conscious condition then I was found myself in good condition. I was regretting
that there was no death caused to me. Then I started my journey
towards one direction. Except everywhere there was jungle and no human being
habitations were not found there. Everywhere wild, cruel animals and
like tigers and wolves were there and due to kind grace and help of Allah,
no wild animals and snakes did not do harm
and any injury to me. I used to wander in the jungles and when
there will be prevail, conditions of
hunger, then used to eat grass and where ever I will find green grass then used
to sleep there. During the night eat grass in the jungle and take the rest of the night and used to go from the
jungle towards further travel on my journey on the feet. One day I reached
under a huge tree and which I could not see before in my whole life and in its
shade there can stay 10,000 soldiers and as I was so tired and got good places
of rest. So I was sleeping there. After some time due to hunger, I was
standing there and began searching
something here and there so that to stop the fire of hunger. When I look at the
upper part of the tree, then what I was seen that one heavy body person was
imprisoned there in thick chains, and he
was sitting there and when I sallahu alai wasallam him then I was afraid for
this reason and suddenly lowering down my look
and began thinking what big problem will prevail there.? That heavy body
person called me, “Oh Tamim Ansari you have suffered very much difficulty and
now do not worry and you will reach back to your home soon and your wish will
be fulfilled. Due to the consolation and
comfort and talking of the heavy body
person and so for this reason my fear
was over and hope was created for me. With much fear and horror, I asked him,
“Oh, the gentleman who you are? And why
you sit here,? And why you have imprisoned in the chains.?’ But that man did
not disclose me his name and other details in this matter and he told only that
“By order of the Allah, he was imprisoned there, Oh Tamim Ansari I want to know
some details from you whether still the prophet Mohammed is living or not.?” I
told him that “He already left this mortal world.” He asked me “Whether people
are involved in adultery” and I told him “Yes.” “Whether the people are
involved in the acts of gambling” and I told him “Yes”. He asked me “Whether
people are involved in acts of giving
false witness.” I told him, “Yes.” He asked “Whether people used to drink wine.?” I told him “Yes.” In this
way he asked many questions from me.
After this he was forced with a great strength so for this reason his thick
chains were broken and he was freed from that place. Then he made a slogan due
to this reason there was a great uproar in the jungle areas and there came
earthquake in the earth and the mountains. In every place, the earth was broken
there and its dams were becoming slower.
At that time one angle came from the sky with a heavy, thick bough and hit him
on head and he said to him, “Oh cursed person still that time did not come for
which you are awaiting there. How you become free from the chains?” and that
person did not say anything to the angel of the sky and he was standing there
silently. That angel put the heavy chain to that person again and fixed by him
with the tree. When I have seen such dealing so I become surprised for this
reason said to myself “Oh Allah what is the matter in this respect.?” Then that
angel told me, “Oh Tamim Ansari what happened to you that you have talked with
this cursed person.” I told him, “Oh pious person may Allah bestow grace upon you and so inform
me who are you.”?, and who is this person who was imprisoned in the chains.?”
He told me that “He was an angel from
the sky sent by Allah. This cursed person is antichrist antichrist (Kanadajjal)
and who will come into the world at the time, on the day of judgment and he will deceive all the
mankind and misled all of them. The
prophet Mohammed (SALLAHU ALAI
WASALLAM) was described all his details in his holy sayings and he was
mentioned the some signs before his
coming in to the world. The cursed one is asking with you details in
connection of the those signs. Oh Tamim Ansari this is that antichrist
(Kanadajjal) and I if would not come there, then he would kill you immediately here in this jungle place and he
will not leave you alive. When I come to know this condition and then return to
my problem of wandering in the jungle and told him that from such and such time
he is wandering in the jungles in surprised and worry condition and he is
covering long distance of travelling in the jungle by foot and in the mountain
area. For god sake, you guide me and show me the way so that I can reach back
to my home. That angle was ready to help and he was accompanied by me and was
showing me the way and he told me “To go on the way of the Qibla and do not see here and there. If you leave
this direction then you will lose your way.” Upon saying this the angle was
vanished from there. As per the guidance
of the angle I was following the way as
per shown by the angel. In the day time I used to travel and eat grass and
drink water there and in the night
time I used to sleep by eating grass and
water in the jungle areas. In this way long period of time was passed away. One
day by walking on feet what I was seen that
there is a big fort is there and its parapet are touching with sky. I
said in my heart that whatever there will be problems and difficulties came
there in the way, but he should visit the whole area of the fort and should
come to know the details of secret of the big fort there. By thinking this I
was entered in the fort by walking very fast. What I see there is one table of
sandal is available there on which l sallahu alai wasallam emerald and costly
pearls and jewels are fixed on it. On one side there is a spread dining cloth
and on it there was available many kinds of
rich food items and water jugs with full of the water were also there.
Oh the ruler of the Muslims as I was very hunger so I have eaten plenty of
the food items and drank cold and
cleaned water there. When I have eaten then I was looking towards the rooms in
the fort, which are full of wealth, of gold and silver and jewelry and with
its there was very much shining was there. When I entered in the room, then I
found many people were killed there and were lying and there were also many
swords were there. When I looked this bloodshed and killing them, I was
surprised on this killing and bloodshed. In the heart I said oh Allah what is
the reason of it, where ever I will go and in such places I used to found
surprised and wonderful things. It is matter of thanks of Allah that he is safe
and secure from any problem and difficulty. And me Allah is taking in His
custody. When I was thinking this then I have seen four horse riders there who
were holding their swords in their hands and they were standing at the doors. I
was surprised to see them. In my heart told
now it is difficult to go away safely from there. They may kill him
there. But I said in my heart that one day I should will be dying and if there
will be death in such place then nobody will save him there. So with courage I
proceed towards those horse riders and said to them Assalam o Alaikum. They
replied my Salam and with kindness and
favour they told me, “ Oh Tamim Ansari you have suffered many hardships and problems in the journey. So you
should not lose your heart. If Allah wills, then you will reach back to your
home town successfully. Upon hearing this I was very much happy and there were
no limits of my joy in this matter. I told him, “There may be mercy of Allah on
all of you and please inform me who are you and how you have recognized me
without knowing me and who are persons killed here and who killed them and for
god sake tell me such information and all details.”? They told me that “They
are angels of Allah and by the order of Allah, they are posted there as
security guards of the treasure in this place. These are persons who belong to
the companions of the last prophet and who are killed on the way of Allah. This
blood flows from such time and it will
be flowing till the day of the judgement. The food which you have eaten and which will be available into the trays
and which will not decrease or increase there and whoever sent by Allah will
eat this food items here.” Then I told them, “Up to what time and for how many
years he will be wandering in the jungle and mountains.? Whether he will be
going back to his country of origin.” So for this reason he is facing many
problems and difficulties in this matter. For god sake, show me the way of
Madina. So they were kind to me in my worse condition. One among them was
accompanied with me as guide and he was with me for some distance of the
journey and upon showing me he went back to his place. I proceed on the way
which was shown by the angel of Allah. On the way there was one garden and in
which I was entered into the garden. What I see there that one pious person was
busy in the prayer under a tree. I reached near him and when he was finished his prayer, then I
said Salam to him. He was replying my Salam and he told me “Are you that person
whom people are searching you in Madina city and your name is Tamim Ansari.” I
told him “Yes, he is the same person who
has lost the way of the journey and he is away from his home country in the
jungle and mountain areas.” He told him “To proceed further then you will find
one old pious person ahead and explain him all your details to him.” So I
proceeded further. After journeying of many days I was finding a grand garden
and thought in my heart that the old pious person will be available there and
whose signs were shown by a pious person in the previous destination. So
without any fear I was entered into the
garden freely. What I see there that inside of the garden that there was found
many kinds of the trees of fruits were there and one pious person was there who
was praying under a tree. I said Salam to him and he was replying my Salam and he said same phrases which were told by
the previous pious person in the previous garden. I told him the whole story of
my journey on the feet. Then he consoled me and he said to me, “ Do not worry
and upset with this matter as your days of the worry and problems are over and if Allah wills he will be returned back
to his home town as soon as possible. But do one work that the mountain which
is seen before and upon your reach there and on which you will find the graces
of Allah on that mountain. So for this
reason as per order of that pious person I went on the mountain very soon. Where I find that there is a garden
which is 1000 times very bigger than the previous garden and in which
there were large numbers of the fruit trees
were there and all were full of the fruits on the trees. There was no
such tree was there in which there will no fruits on it. There were also many
thousand trees were available there on which there were available many kinds of
the scented flowers were there on the trees and flowers and fragrance were full
in the large garden area and many thousand lovely and beautiful birds were
chirping in the garden in melodious voices and there was one canal in the
garden. This was a very good place of atmosphere. I have not seen and
not heard by any such a grand and beautiful garden in my whole journey
and in my whole life period. Oh the rulers of the Muslims I have visited well
that grand and beautiful garden and I have plucked very much fruits from the
trees and eaten too much fruits. I have not eaten such best and better fruits
in my whole life period. When I was thirsty then I was search water here and
there and after some time I found one
beautiful water reservoir there. I have reached there and find its water clear
and cleaned well with like a pearl as I
was thirsty so I drank very much water there. I have seen one old woman who was
sitting at the corner of the water reservoir and who was wearing full of riches
and jewels and her hairs were in the curling style there and hanging at two
sides of her head. There was one Miswak
(tooth brush) in her hand and in the other hand she was having a big rosary.
When she looked towards me then I said Salam to her. But she did not reply my
Salam. And she was shown picked her beads and shown it to me and she meant in
this matter that she is engaged in reciting of something there. So she could
not able to reply me in this matter. But at that time I could able understand
the secret in this matter and I asked her, “Oh woman who are you? And why she
is sitting there.?” And she is not talking and not giving reply to my Salam to
her. At that time from the corner of the garden there was heard a horrible voice in which it was heard “Oh Tamim Ansari what
you are doing.? Go immediately from this place.? Whether you do not fear of
Us.?” Upon hearing this voice I was afraid in this matter and somehow I left from there and went to see
the previous pious person. That person told me “Have you seen the divine power
of Allah there.?” I said “Yes.” After some time I have asked by that old person
that “Who was that person who have sent
to me to see you here. And the woman who
was seen by me in the garden and who was in her pretty and fine dress and who was she.? And whose horrible sound
was that.?.” He said that “He is prophet Ilyas
(Alaihis Salam.) and I am prophet Khizer (Alaihis Salam) and that woman
is the world and the horrible sound belongs to Yajuj
and
Majuj (
Arabic: يأجوج ومأجوج Yaʾjūj wa-Maʾjūj), and it was good
that you have come here. So you have
rest of some days here and stay with me as you have suffered many hardships
during long period of journey by the feet so for this reason you are tired in
this matter.” I told him, “ Oh Khaja god bless you and there will be mercy of Allah upon you. It
was my luck that which brought me in your kind presence and under your
employment. Now on you there is dependence of my life. By sake of kindness and
favour tell me how far my country is away from here and when I will go back to
my home from here?.” He told me “ Your home is away from here for a journey
period of 200 years.” I told him “Oh Khaja it is sad that he is age will not be
sufficient for covering the return journey to my home town and so keeping of the hope of return
journey now seems to me useless and with fruitless. Khaja Sahib told me “Oh
Tamim do not disappoint in this matter
and have trust on Allah and Allah have divine power so he can take you back to
your home town within a second.” At that time one piece of cloud came there and
thundering was started. Khaja Sahib asked him to come near. He came near to him
and said Salam to him. Khaja Sahib asked the cloud, “Where you are going.?” The
cloud told him that “Such and place he will go and fall down there and will
cause rain as per the order given to him. Is any work is there which is
required by him to be attended by me there.?” Khaja Sahib told him “To go to
such and place as per the order.” Upon seeing this I was satisfied very much in
this matter. I stayed with Khaja Sahib. After three days other cloud was
appeared in the sky and it also said Salam to him and he said Salam to him and
asked him “Where you going.?”. The cloud told him that “He is going Madina city
as per the order given to him. Has any work been?.” Khaja Sahib said “Yes,
there is one work that this person who belongs Ansari tribe in Madina city and
his name is Tamim Ansari and he is a
resident of Madina and he was taken by Black Devil in the 5th region
of the earth. By grace and favour of Allah, he was freed from the claw of that
devil. After facing many thousand difficulties and many thousand problems he was reached here. I have kept him here so
that any cloud which will go to Madina and take him along with him. As you are
going to Madina so taken him on your shoulder and take him to his house there.
The cloud came soon down as per instruction of Khaja Sahib and who took me on
his shoulder. Khaja Sahib said goodbye to me and asked the cloud to leave from
there. The cloud was covering the journey of 200 years in one part of the
day and it was reached to Madina and falling
there and rain was started. Oh, ruler of the Muslims these are events which are
passed on him. After such hardships and difficulties and problems he was
reaching back to Madina city. When he was entered into his house this event was
happening there. It seems that everybody is becoming his enemy.”
When the ruler of the Muslims was heard, his whole story, then
on the witness of the Hazrat Ali bin Abu Taleb (rai allah tala anhu.) so he was
given back the women to Hazrat Tamim Ansari
and with whom her second marriage was done was giving up and she was
separated from him. He was given advice to both of them and sent back to their
home.
After some days Hazrat Tamim Ansari left Madina for the preaching of
Islamic propagation mission work and while
visiting many places he was reached to Karachi port city and he was
staying there and He
visited the continent, Asia during the time of the caliph of the prophet, Hazrath Umar
Farooq (razi allah tala anhu).The Kingdom of
Sindh was under the rule of Syedna Hazrat Tameem ibn YU-AAR Al Ansari (razi
allah tala anhu) for a period of 18 years. He
has his testament that on his death to put his body in the coffin and put that
coffin in the sea water. Where the coffin reaches to the shore there then he should be buried.
After the last instructions from Syedna
Hazrat Tameem ibn YU-AAR Al Ansari (Razi
allah tala anhu) as stated above, when the Hazrat Tamim Ansari (Razi allah tala
anhu.) was dead, then his companions or disciples did the same and it is said that
the holy corpse (Janazah Mubarak) was
put in the coffin and placed in sea waters and
which was in the sea waters for a
period of about 400 years and it was guarded by the big fishes during this
time. Eventually, one big fish brought the
corpse nearer to the sea shore When the
coffin was reached on the shore of the
(Sadat Bandar) Kovalam Sharif by flow on
the sea water. The fishermen tried many
thousand tricks to catch the coffin, but they could not able to catch it. When
this news known to the ruler of the place the Nawab of Wallajah, Nawab
Muhammed Saadatullah Khan, so
he himself came there at the Kovalam
seaport and he paid his attention towards
the coffin, then at that time coffin
came near the ruler of the
Kovalam. When it was opened in which it was found the dead body of the one
