- Truth About Saint Mansur
- Taj Mohi-ud-din
One Sarfraz Husani was a very intimate visitor of Hazrat
Tajuddin Baba. He could, therefore, ask him questions much more
freely than others. One day he asked: " Huzur, what is the truth
about Sufi saint Mansur who was crucified for declaring Anal Huq
( I am God)? Is he recognized as a great saint?"
Baba Tajuddin replied : " Yes son, he is a great saint; but he
was a child; he opened his fist too soon. This fist of Tajuddin
(he showed his fist as he said 'this') will not be opened till
the day-of-Judgment." He thereby implied that it is nature of
saints to impress upon people the truth of their complete union
with God and identity that is thereby revealed to them. Yet he
felt that they should not verbally which, of course was true.
But Tajuddin Baba never made a similar claim though his
spiritual status and attainments were not less exalted. Opening
the fist implies revealing of Divine secrets entrusted to great
saints by the Almighty God to carry out their Divine mission on
earth.

One day Baba Sahib asked us about the meaning of this
" My name is Taj Mohi-ud-din"
I humbly requested Baba Sahib to explain it, Then Baba Sahib
said;
" Shah WaliAllah Mohdi's Dhelwi (r.a.) wrote in his book
“Humaat” that in every period there is a venerable that appears
in this Ummat (Nation) who keeps the Deen ( Religion) alive. The
sign of such a saint is that he is awarded with every powers
like Spiritual, physical and much more. He can gives life to a
dead one, cure the incurable, to gratify ones desires and all
those powers which are simply out of the readers minds, these
are blessed to a mighty saint like this. When such a high
ranking venerable appears, he is known as Qutub-e-Madar-e-Alam.
Then the invitations of all the other Aqtabs and denied and all
Silsilas (Sufi orders) which were carrying on from the beginning
are stopped. This venerable has the authority to give life to
any religious order. All the Silsilas (orders) are benefited by
the spirituality of this saint. He is the Moin-ud-din (helper)
of all the Silsilas (orders), unless another venerable appears
of the same qualities, power and rank, if not the sovereignty of
the previous saint stays."
Similarly Hazrat Mohi-ud-din Ibn-e-Arabi (r.a.) stated in his
book “Fatuhat Al- Muktah tha” when a Qutub-e-Madar-e-Alam
appears all the previous qualities, power, invitations, affect
and sovereignty of all the previous saints are halted.
Then Hazrat Yusuf Shah Taji said that, the knower know that no
other venerable as appeared up till now by the same grace,
glory, Hierarchy and sovereignty as Baba Tajuddin. Almighty
Allah knows better about the future. Baba is Khamal-Aulia. This
means that no person can be posted on Wilayat unless and until
he has a link with Hazrat Baba Tajuddin and Baba Sahib helps his
Ruhaniat (Spiritual Position to recover).
This has been mentioned by Hazrat Shah Waliuaalh (r.a.) and
Harzat Shiek Akbar (r.a.) that this is the period of Baba
Tajuddin's Kingdom ship and Sovereignty and Baba Sahib is Taj
Mohi-ud-din of every Silsila (order). Whenever a person or
candidate of any Silsila presented himself in the honor of His
Highness, Baba Sahib had and has blessed him in accordance to
seekers order. For example, a Qadri is blessed in a Qadria way,
a Chishti is blessed in a Chishtia way, a Suharwardi is blessed
in a Suharwardia way etc.
