Since
it
has
been
established
by
the
Ahaadeeth
of
Allah’s
Messenger
(sallallahu
alaihi
wa-sallam)
that
glad
tidings
may
be
received
through
dreams,
the
Deobandis
have
extensively
made
use
of
this
possibility
until
their
books
are
filled
with
Mubashshirat
(glad-tidings)
after
Mubashshirat
for
their
Madhhab,
their
school
of
Deoband
and
their
scholars.
Following
are
some
of
the
dreams
in
which
the
Deobandis
claim
glad
tidings
for
themselves,
and
try
to
misguide
the
people
into
believing
that
their
methodology
of
Sufism,
veneration
of
saints,
exaggeration
and
blind-following
has
the
approval
of
Allah’s
Messenger
(sallallahu
alaihi
wa-sallam):

Rasheed
Ahmad
Gungohi
writes
in
Al-Baraheen
al-Qatiya
about
the
superiority
of
the
Madrasa
(school)
of
Deoband
… a
noble
person
was
blessed
with
a
vision
of
the
Prophet
Muhammad
(sallallahu
alaihi
wa-sallam),
in
which
he
saw
Allah’s
Messenger
(sallallahu
alaihi
wa-sallam)
speaking
in
Urdu.
The
noble
person
asked,
‘How
do
you
know
this
language,
while
you
are
an
Arab?’
He (sallallahu
alaihi
wa-sallam)
said,
‘From
the
time
I
have
been
in
contact
with
the
scholars
of
the
school
of
Deoband,
I’ve
known
this
language’.”
Rasheed
Ahmad
Gungohi
comments,
“From
this
we
understand
the
greatness
of
this
Madrasa
(school).”[1]

Moulana
Zakariyah
says:
“Once
he (Imdadullah
Muhajir
Makki)
saw
in a
dream
that
he
could
not
lift
his
feet
on
account
of
the
awe,
which
pervaded
his
being.
Suddenly,
his
honorable
ancestor,
Mulla
Bulaqi
appeared
and
taking
hold
of
Haji
Sahib’s
hand,
presented
him
to
Rasoolullah.
In
turn,
Rasoolullah
took
hold
of
his
(Haji
Sahib’s)
hand
and
assigned
him
into
the
care
of
Shaikh
Mashaikh
Hazrat
Mia’nji
Nur
Muhammad.”[2]

Moulana
Zakariyah
says:
“…
Hazrat’s
(Imdadullah
Muhajir
Makki)
sister-in-law
saw
Rasoolullah
in a
dream
saying:
“Get
up!
(Move
away!)
I
shall
prepare
the
food
of
Imdadullah’s
guests
who
are
Ulema.”[3]

Moulana
Zakariyah
says:
“Once
a
man
saw
in
his
dream
that
Hazrat
Haji
Sahib
(Imdadullah
Muhajir
Makki)
was
wearing
the
Mubarak
cloak
of
Rasoolullah…”[4]
5.
Moulana
Zakariyah
says:
“After
Ziyarat
of
Rasoolullah’s
grave,
he (Imdadullah
Muhajir
Makki)
derived
fuyudh
of
that
holy
place.
During
his
time
in
Medina,
while
in
Muraqabah
in
the
area
known
as
‘a
garden
from
the
gardens
of
Jannah’
(i.e.
the
area
between
the
Sacred
grave
and
blessed
minbar),
he
had
the
honor
of
making
Ziyarat
of
Rasoolullah,
who
placed
an
amamah
(turban)
on
his
head.”[5]

Moulana
Zakariyah
says:
“In
one
of
the
villages
in
the
district
of
Surat,
there
was
an
Imam
of
the
Masjid,
whose
name
is
Sulaiman
Mia.
He
dreamt
that
two
Buzurgs
with
the
holiest
countenance
were
sitting
on a
throne.
Sulaiman
Mia
asked
this
man:
“Who
are
these
great
people?”
He
replied:
“The
great
one
is
Rasoolullah
and
the
other
is
Moulana
Rasheed
Ahmad,
the
Shaikh
of
Moulvi
Ahmad
Buzurg,
former
principal
of
Dhabel
Madrasa.”[6]
