Sufi Quotes

Once Baba Farid Ganj-i-Shakar wrote to his Shaikh that the people of the Punjab often approach him to have amulet. Hazrat Khwaja Qutbuddin replied: “The job is not in your hand, it is in hand of Almighty. Write for them the name of Allah.” After this Nur Muhammad said: “Its immediate advantage is that the suppliant is pleased and he feels satisfied.”

A Qawwal named Abu-Bakr played an important role in establishing a contact between Nizamuddin and his future master Baba Farid. Fawaid ul Fuwad recounts the Qawwali coming to Badayun and his stories about a visit to the Khanqah of Sheikh Bahauddin Zakriya Multani at Multan. Nizamuddin initially remains unmoved and is overcome with attraction when Abu-Bakr describes Baba Farid whom he had met at Ajodhan.
