An Event Concerning The Salvation Of A Saint


Muft Muhammad Taqi Usmani (حفظه الله) says: I have heard this event from my Shaykh, Hazrat Dr. Abdul Hai Sahib (رحمه الله). It runs thus:

There was a pious saint who was also a Muhaddith and had devoted his entire life to the service of hadeeth. After his death someone saw him in a dream and asked him how Exalted Allaah dealt with him. He replied, saying: 'It was a very strange dealing. I had devoted my entire life to the service of hadeeth, learning and teaching Deen and delivering lectures and sermons. I hoped that these acts would earn for me reward and recompense. When I was produced before Exalted Allaah I faced a strange situation. Allah told me that He appreciated very much one of my actions. It was that when I took out my pen from the inkpot a fly sat on its tip and began to sip the ink. I felt pity on the fly. As this too was a creature of Allaah, I stopped using the pen, while the fly remained sipping the ink. Exalted Allaah appreciated this action which, He admitted, I had taken for the sake of His exclusive pleasure. On account of this deed Exalted Allaah forgave me and favoured me with Paradise.'

Thus, none knows which deed is acceptable to Exalted Allaah. It is not the price, volume, size or count of the deed. But it is its weight based on sincerity that matters in the sight of Allaah. Deeds large in number but devoid of sincerity have no value. On the other hand, deeds small in number but based on sincerity are more weighty and valuable in the sight of Exalted Allaah. (Discourse On Islamic Way Of Life, Volume 3, p151)

"The deeds are considered by the intentions, and a person will get the reward according to his intention."
