Ghazwa-tul-Hind
- HADEES OF HAZRAT SUBAN (R.A.); the freed servant of Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) :-
It is being related to Hazrat Suban (R.A.), that Hazrat Muhammad
(P.B.U.H.) told that;
“Two groups
amongst My Ummah would be such, to whom Allah has freed from fire; one group
would attack India & the Second would be that who would accompany Isa
Ibn-e-Maryam (A.S.)”.
(2) HAZRAT ABU HURAIRAH’s HADEES:-
It is related to Hazrat Abu Hurairah (R.A) that Hazrat
Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) talked about Hindustan (India) & said:
“Definitely, one of your troops would do a war with
Hindustan, Allah would grant success to those warriors, as far as they would
bring their kings by dragging them in chains / fetters. And Allah would forgive
those warriors (by the Blessing of this Great War). And when those Muslims
would return, they would find Hazrat Isa Ibn-e-Maryam (A.S.) in Syria (Shaam)”.
Hazrat Abu Hurairah
(R.A.) told that ‘if I could find that Ghazwa, then would sell all my new &
old goods and would participate in it. When Allah (S.W.T.) granted us success
& we returned, then I would be a free Abu Hurairah; who would come in the
country of Syria with such a pride of finding Hazrat Isa (A.S.) over there. O
Muhammad (P.B.U.H.)! That time it would be my intense wish that by coming
closer to Hazrat Isa (A.S.), I may tell him that I am the Sahabi of Muhammad (P.B.U.H.).
The narrator tells
that Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) smiled & said: ‘very difficult, very difficult’.
REFERENCE:-
Naeem bin Hammad
quoted this Hadees in his book ‘Kitab Al Fitan’. Ishaq bin Rahuya (R) also
quoted this Hadees in his ‘Masnad’, in which there are few additions, so we are
also quoting this narration as well, which is as follows:-
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (R.A.) says that, one day Hazoor (S.A.W.) said while
talking about India (Hindustan);
‘Surely, your one troop would fight with Hindustan
& Allah would Bless those Warriors (Mujahid) with success, that they would
bring the leaders of Sindh in fetters, Allah would forgive the Warriors. Then,
when they would return, they would find Isa Ibn-e-Maryam (A.S.) in Syria”.
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (R.A.) spoke:
‘If I get that Ghazwa, then would participate in it by selling
all my old & new goods. When Allah would give us success, then we would
come back & I would be a freed Abu Hurairah, who would
come in Syria and would meet Hazrat Isa Ibn-e-Maryam(A.S.)
there. O Allah’s Messenger (P.B.U.H.) ! that time, I would be in a deep desire
to tell him by going close to him that I have the honour of having the company
of Muhammad(P.B.U.H.).
The narrator tells that: Muhammad S.A.W. smiles
by listening this.
Naeem bin Hammad did narrate this Hadees in ‘Al Fitan’.
(3) HADEES RELATED TO HAZRAT SAF WAAN BIN UMROO (RA):-
He (RA) says that some people told him that Hazoor
(P.B.U.H.) said:
“Some
people of My Ummah will fight with Hindustan, Allah would grant them with
success, and even they would find the Indian kings being trapped in fetters.
Allah would forgive those Warriors. When they would move towards Syria, then
would find Isa Ibn-e-Maryam (A.S.) over there”
Naeem bin Hammad(R)
Ustaaz Imam Bukhari (R) did narrate this Hadees in his book ‘Al-Fitan’. In it,
the name of the quoter is not mentioned who related it to Hazrat Kaab (R.A.).
But some Arabic words are being used, so this would be considered
intersected.
Those wordings are
as follows:
(Almuhkamubnu
Naafi-in Amman Haddasahu An Kaabin)
(4) HADEES OF
HAZRAT KAAB (R.A.):-
This is the Hadees
of Hazrat Kaab (R.A.), he says that:
“ A King of Jerusalem (Bait-ul-Muqaddas) would make a troop move
forward towards Hindustan. The Warriors destroy the land of Hind; would possess
its treasures, then King would use those treasures for the décor of Jerusalem.
That troop would bring the Indian kings in front of King (of Jerusalem). His
Warriors by King’s order would conquer all the area between East & West.
And would stay in Hindustan till the issue of Dajjal”.

BLESSED LIFE (GHAZWAT-UL-HIND)
Ghazwat-ul-Hind
Hazrat Gee (Maulana
Allah Yar Khan) stayed at Karachi from 19th of December, 1970 till 24th of
January,1971 because of not finding the flight for Jeddah. At that
time, the Centre for ZIKR was also established at MAARI-PUR air-base.
When Hazrat Gee went
to the place of aviation zikr companions at Maari-pur; there he heard the
discussion related to Hazrat Abdullah Shah (R.A.), who was a renowned ‘SAHABI’.
Hazrat Gee paid
attention to the discussion and said that He (Hazrat Abdullah Shah) is not a
‘Sahabi’, rather a ‘TAABAI’. Hazrat also added that Hazrat Abdullah Shah is
inviting us at his Tomb. Hazrat Gee never used to visit any person’s tomb other
than those of MASHAIKH’S or of his companions of meditation. But Hazrat
Abdullah Shah of Maari-pur is the sole person, to whom’s tomb, Hazrat Gee went
with his companions, because of his invitation.
Hazrat Gee marked out
the particular place of Hazrat Abdullah’s burial, because his grave was
extra-ordinarily long. He said that although his height was a bit taller than
normal, but from his head side, the grave has been given extension unlogically.
Hazrat Gee also added
that Hazrat Abdullah Shah was one of the religious scholars of his time. Hazrat
Gee asked Hazrat Abdullah that ‘WHY DID U COME HERE?’
Hazrat Abdullah
replied:
“ I HEARD ABOUT GHAZWAT-UL-HIND; CAME HERE SO THAT IT MAY NOT PASS AWAY. WHEN
REACHED HERE, MY LAST MOMENT CAME. ONLY FOUR MEN OFFERED MY FUNERAL.”
Hazrat Soban (R.A.),
the freed servant of MUHAMMAD (P.B.U.H.), narrates about Ghazwat-ul-hind that
Muhammad P.B.U.H. said;
“ IN MY UMMAH, THERE ARE TWO SUCH FORCES, ON WHICH ALLAH HAS MADE HARAAM THE
FIRE OF HELL; ONE IS THE FORCE WHICH WILL ATTACK HINDUSTAN & THE OTHER
WOULD BE THE ONE WHO WOULD ACCOMPANY HAZRAT ISA IBN-E-MARYAM (A.S.)”.
Hazrat Abu Hurairah
(R.A.) said;
“ Hazrat Muhammad P.B.U.H. promised us of Ghazwat-ul-hind. If I found this,
then I would sacrifice myself & my goods, and if I died in it, then I would
be one of the best martyrs, and if I returned alive, then I ( Abu Hurairah)
would be freed from fire.”
When Hazrat Abdullah
Shah heard about the Hadees of Ghazwat-ul-hind; he left the country without any
delay & headed towards the most renowned Hind-state of that time. Because
he did not want to remain unrewarded regarding participation in this Ghazwa,
about
which Muhammad
P.B.U.H. gave good news(basharat) of entering Heaven without any judgement.
Such type of good news
came either in the destiny of lucky SAHABA in the era of Muhammad P.B.U.H.;
such as ‘ASHRA-E-MUBASHSHARA’ or people of ‘BADR’ & now this reward would
come in the fate of the participants of Ghazwat-ul-hind.
What to say about the
lucky fate of those soldiers who would avail practical participation in
Ghazwat-ul-hind. But in every era, the pious people who used to spend their
days on horses’ backs and used to spend their nights in bowing in front of
Allah; they all desired long for Ghazwat-ul-hind.
Ghazwa basically is a
war in which the participation of Hazrat Muhammad P.B.U.H. involves physically.
It is strange that this Ghazwa has to take place after Allah’s Rasool
S.A.W. & more strange is the happy news of entering JANNAT
questionlessly, for its participants.
Muhammad P.B.U.H. also
said that:
“COOL BREEZE COMES TO MUHAMMAD (P.B.U.H.) FROM THE COASTS OF HIND.”
From one aspect,
Hazrat Abdullah Shah can be appointed leader of the passionate for
participation in Ghazwat-ul-hind; as he left his country in this desire and is
resting today at the sea-coast of MAARI-PUR. This is the reason that
Hazrat Gee regarded him and visited his Tomb on his invitation.
In the same visit of
Hazrat Gee, some companions raised the question about Ghazwat-ul-hind that ‘
when would it be taking place?’
Hazrat replied;
“ YOU CAN WATCH “
Then companions saw
through meditation that the passionates who are participating in this Ghazwa
are from different world nations, different generations & are having
different get-ups; but all are having one thing in common, i.e., they all are
untidily involved in this Ghazwa, having deep desire of being martyred
according to the sayings of Muhammad P.B.U.H.
Regarding the
Hind-land, Hazrat Gee also made us see the era of Hajjaj bin Yusuf i.e. ,
after prayer of JUMA, the broad area of MASJID is filled with
people, who are standing in front of Hajjaj bin Yusuf with the applications in
their hands, on which it is written that because
of some private problems, they should be given disapproval of going to
HINDUSTAN with Muhammad bin Qasim.
Suddenly, an order
came from Hajjaj bin Yusaf that the heads of these people have become load on
their necks like ripped bunches, which must be get separated from the entire
body.
It was the result of
dual intenders (munafiq), which are present in all eras. But for their removal,
strong Hajjaj bin Yusaf is being found rarely. Whereas judgment of many gets
delayed for the day of judgment.
In 1972, Hazrat Gee
came to visit Karachi. In those days, a troller of Russian Navy was anchored
hiddenly in an open sea near few kilometers of Karachi coast. It was on every
one’s tongue that this troller is in search of a Russian Sub-marine, which came
in war of 1971 to assist the enemy, but got drowned here. Because of the
presence of Russian ship in Pakistani Seas, there prevail a lot fear in the
people of Karachi & they were expecting another war because of 1971 war.
When the possibility
of war was discussed in front of Hazrat Gee, he said;
“AFTER THE WAR OF 1971, THERE WOULD NOT OCCUR ANY WAR AMONGST PAKISTAN &
HINDUSTAN OTHER THAN THAT OF GHAZWAT UL HIND; IN WHICH THE SUCCESS WOULD BE
OURS.”
Hazrat Gee was not
having any doubt about the future of Pakistan, as no other big war would be
imposed on Pakistan before Ghazwat-ul-hind; of which Hazrat Gee mentioned many
times.
In the annual
gathering of 1980, companions were with Hazrat Gee. Just before, in 1979,
Afghanistan was been attacked by Russia badly. When Colonel Gulzar discussed
fear about Pakistan regarding this Russian attack, Hazrat Gee said:
“ I SAW IN STATE OF MEDITATION (MURAAQBA), THAT FROM THE RIGHT & LEFT OF
‘MINBR-E-RASOOL(S.A.W.)’, THE HORSE RIDERS HEADED FASTLY TOWARDS PAKISTAN. A
WALL APPEARED IN THE CENTRE OF PAKISTAN & AFGHANISTAN, LIKE A MOUNTAIN.
RUSSIAN TANKS DID COME AND BOUNCED BACK AFTER COLLISION WITH IT.”
After narrating this
seen, Hazrat Gee said;
“Russia would never attack Pakistan.”
Hazrat Gee added;
‘ The boundaries of Pakistan would expand, big war with India would occur,
Kashmir would get freedom, Delhi would be freed. The victorious General would
be our companion. At this success, he would be so happy that his heart would
collapse and would not see his own victory.”
According to this
statement of Hazrat Gee, that now, before Ghazwat-ul-hind, there would be no
war occurring between Pakistan & Hindustan; the good news of victory can
only be of Ghazwat-ul-hind.
Furthermore, being a
GHAZWA, it would be having the leadership of MUHAMMAD P.B.U.H due to His
full attention; and how from BARZAKH, it would take form of personal companionship,
ALLAH knows.
Hazrat Abdullah Shah
was also waiting for the time that when Ghazwat-ul-hind would start and he
would participate in it, although spiritually.
While our visit to his
TOMB, he said that he would be the part of Ghazwat-ul-hind & Hazrat Abu-Hurairah
(R.A.) as well.
Till then, Hazrat Abu
Hurairah’s saying about this Ghazwa was not known. When found his sayings, then
it came in front that he also desired deep for participation in this Ghazwa.
It came to be known
that any person who died along with the desire of participation in
Ghazwat-ul-hind; he would also be spiritually, the part of this Ghazwa because
of his intentions.
Whatever the form of
participation would be; the certificate for Heaven’s entrance without any
judgment has been received. But the real good luck for its participants would
be to have the supreme attachment with MUHAMMAD (P.B.U.H.), because of this GHAZWA.
