    I know one khalifa of Huzur Mufti-e-Azam Hind Rahimahullah, a sufi and alim, who confirms this karamah of his shaikh. He says that he knows that person, and whenever he vists Baraili Shareef and meet him,he asks him to tell this karamah again, and that person swears upon Allah Subh'ano wa Ta'a and tells what had happend to him.

    His first fatawa

    HIS FIRST FATAWA:

    Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind, Moulana Mustapha Raza Khan (radi Allahu anhu's) brilliance as an Islamic Scholar manifested itself when he was a still a youth, but overflowing with knowledge and wisdom. He wrote his first historical Fatawa (Islamic Ruling) when he was only 13 years old. It dealt with the topic of "Raza'at" - affinity between persons breast fed by the same woman. The following has been recorded with regards to this ocassion.

    Hazrat Maulana Zafrud'deen and Hazrat Maulana Sayed Abdur Rasheed (radi Allahu anhum) were at the Darul Ifta (Fatawa Department) at this stage. One day, Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu) walked into the Darul Ifta and noticed that Hazrat Maulana Zafrud'deen (radi Allahu anhu) was writing a certain Fatawa. He was taking "Fatawa Razvia" from the shelf as his reference. On seeing this, Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu) said, "Are you relying on Fatawa Razvia to write an answer?" Maulana Zafrud'deen (radi Allahu anhu) replied, "Alright then, why don't you write the answer without looking." Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu) then wrote a powerful answer without any problem. This was the Fatawa concerning "Raza'at" - the very first Fatawa which he had written.

    The answer was then sent to his father, Sayyiduna A'la Hazrat (radi Allahu anhu) for correction and verification. On seeing the authenticity of the Fatawa, Sayyiduna A'la Hazrat (radi Allahu anhu) became delighted and immediately certified the Fatawa with the following words:

    Sayyiduna A'la Hazrat (radi Allahu anhu) then signed the Fatawa. He also commanded Hafiz Yaqeenudeen (radi Allahu anhu) to make a stamp for Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind (radi Allahu anhu) as a gift and said that it should read as follows: "Abul Barkaat Muhiy'yuddeen Jilani Aale Rahmaan urf Mustapha Raza Khan."

    This incident took place in 1328 AH. After this incident Mufti-e-Azam-e-Hind, Moulana Mustapha Raza Khan (radi Allahu anhu) spent another 12 years writing Fatawas at the feet of A'la Hazrat (radi Allahu anhu). He was given this immense responsibility of issuing Fatawas even while A'la Hazrat (radi Allahu anhu) was in this physical world. He continued this trend until his last breath. The stamp which was given to him was mislaid during his second Hajj when his bags were lost.

    Sarkaar-e-Ghaus-e-Azam’s (radi Allahu anhu) words concerning Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu)

    Hadhrat Maulana Abdul Qayyum Muzaffarpoori narrates that a person by the name of Aahiq Ali wished to become Mureed of Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu). He was informed that Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) was to visit Faizabaad, where Aahiq Ali lived.

    When Hadhrat visited Faizabaad, Maulana Abdul Qayyum took Aashiq Ali with him and requested Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) to make him Mureed. Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) thus commanded him to say the words of Bai’at, which he did. Hadhrat then asked to say that he had given his hand of Huzoor Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhu).

    Aashiq Ali said,

    ‘I have given my hand in the hand of Mufti-e-Azam.’

    Hadhrat then said,

    ‘Say that you have given your hand in the hand of Ghaus-e-Azam.’

    He again said,

    ‘I have given my hand in the hand of Mufti-e-Azam’ You have just asked me to repent from lies, and now you tell me to say that I am giving my hand in the hand of Ghaus-e-Azam. You are Mufti-e-Azam.’

    Hadhrat then explained to him, that this was the method in which a person was entered into the silsila of Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhu) and this has always been the method of the pious predecessors, and in this way, one is presented to Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhu). Hadhrat then asked him to repeat the words again, but he refused. Huzoor Mufti-e-Azam Hind (radi Allahu anhu) then removed his Amaama Shareef (Turban) in Jalaal, placed it on the head of Aashiq Ali and said,

    ‘Why are you not saying. Say, I have given my hand in the hand of Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhu).’

    Aashiq Ali now began to say this, and did so continuously, until he lost consciousness. After regaining his conscious, Maulana Abdul Qayyum took him aside and asked what had happen. Janaab Aashiq Ali replied by saying,

    “As soon as Hadhrat placed his Turban on my head, I saw Sarkaar-e-Ghaus-e-Azam Jilani (radi Allahu anhu) standing in front of me and he said, ‘Aashiq Ali! The Hand of Mufti-e-Azam is my hand. He is my representative and my deputy. Say, I have given my hand in the hand of Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhu)!’Then, I saw that my hand was in the hand of Ghaus-e-Azam. This is why I could not stop saying it and lost consciousness when Ghaus-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhu) left.”
