3) Miracles Of The Saints
Rabi Basria (may Allaah have mercy on her)
Once Rabia Basria began the holy pilgrimage to Makkah. She carried her luggage on an old donkey. The donkey fell dead on the way. Her companions volunteered to carry her luggage but she refused on the basis that she had set off for the Hajj under the shelter of the Lord not theirs. The caravan passed on and she was left alone. Rabia prayed to her Lord, "O Master of the worlds, I am a desolate, meek and poor woman. First You invited me to Your House, the Ka'bah and now you have killed my donkey leaving me alone in this wilderness." The prayer was uttered and at once the donkey was revived. She then placed her luggage upon it and proceeded on the pilgrimage.
On another occasion when Rabia proceeded on her pilgrimage to the Holy Ka'bah, and was passing through the wilderness she observed that the Ka'bah was coming towards her to welcome her. (Tadhkeratul Auliya)
