    Mufti Abd al-Mannan Azmi says we know the sunnah of eating with three fingers but saw it practically implemented by #MuftiEAzam. His morsel was small and he ate with utmost humility.

    #MuftiEAzam would kiss the hands of his own murids if they were sayyid.

    Kissing your own disciples' hands? Wow, Bareilly. That's what you call respect for the prophetic blood line ﷺ.

    The nurturing of my #Alahazrat.

    #MuftiEAzam wouldn't eat till all his guests had eaten. He would accept invitations from the poor and would keep himself away from the rich and famous.

    The nurturing of my #Alahazrat.

    #MuftiEAzam has an emphatic fatwa about a kafir lady who wants to become Muslim but the jumu'ah imam, himself a mufti, said she must do ghusl first etc. and I will make her Muslim after prayers.

    Mufti e Azam quotes from Khulasah, Sharh Fiqh al-Akbar, Majma' al-Anhar, Nur al-Idah, Maraqi al-Falah, Tahtawi, A'alam al-A'alam.

    He rules that the Mufti in question must repeat his shahadah and nikah. It is forbidden to wait when someone wants to accept Islam. Otherwise it is rida bi'l kufr (pleased with kufr).

    ---
    If this is the fatwa about someone wanting to accept Islam, then what about Tahir ul who happily invited kafirs to commit shirk...

    14th Muharram is urs of Mufti e Azam Imam Mustafa Rida ibn #Alahazrat. Please arrange events for this.

    It is said that whichever path Mufti e Azam walked along, people would gather in vast numbers to see him and if he sat in a gathering, people couldn't stop looking at his immense beauty.

    And that's just in his older age...

    Mufti e Azam would make wudu with a water pot (lota) instead of a using a tap.

    Upon enquiry, he said: 'too much water is wasted using a tap.'

    O the taqwa! O the nurturing of my #Alahazrat!

    RasulAllah ﷺ warned against walking over people to get to the front in jumu'ah prayer. Many know this ruling but how many practice?

    Mufti e Azam withstood the intense heat of Mubarakpur and prayed outside instead of trying to get to the front of the masjid at al-Jamiah al-Ashrafiyyah.

    After an event, Mufti e Azam was presented tea. He immediately stated: 'I haven't made the intention of seclusion (iytikaf) so anyone who also hasn't done so, do it now as we're about to eat in the masjid and it's prohibited without this intention.'

    O the nurturing of my #Alahazrat!

    #Alahazrat was once in Marehra Sharif and was climbing down a flight of stairs after Asr prayer behind Sayyid Abu al-Hasan Nūrī. Suddenly, the then spiritual heir to the throne of Marehra turned and exclaimed: 'there has been the birth of a son in your home. When I come to Bareilly I will certainly see him. He is very blessed and fortunate. I have seen in a dream to name him Aal Rahman.'

    When Alahazrat returned to Bareilly Sharif, he found that Mufti e Azam Imam Mustafa Rida has been born.

    He was born on 22 Dhu'l Hijjah 1310 AH / 1892 CE.

    Sayyid Abu al-Hasan Nūrī named him Abu al-Barakāt Muhyuddin Jilani. Aqiqah was performed on the name 'Muhammad' and Mustafa Rida was the given name.
