Inspiring Events in the Field of Tabligh — Page 59
59 A Let me relate to you another heartwarming incident of my revered father, © adhrat Maul ā n ā Abul-‘A ’ ā Jalundhari, while he was a missionary in Palestine. He told us that once he was returning home in Kab ā b ī r after conducting a tabl ī gh program. He said, “I felt something moving in the bushes and thinking that there may be some animal moving about, I did not pay much attention towards it. ” When he moved a few yards, there were two thunderous blasts. He took it as a casual incident and did not bother much. But later it was learnt that he had crossed the valley of death, but it was due to the divine protection that he remained safe and sound. After some time, it was discovered that the opponents had been planning to murder him for some time. It was on that night that two young men, armed with guns, laid in ambush and waited for him. When, he and his companion passed by them, one of them fired at him but the gun did not work. Then the other young man tried to fire his gun, but his gun also did not work. They both walked on under the divine protection. When they had gone a little distance, both the young men again tried their guns and they fired all right. There was no flaw in the guns. It was only when the guns were aimed at the two Muj ā hid ī n, the divine destiny stopped their performance. [36]
