Translated Lecture of Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Shafee Okarvi [Rahmatul Laah Alaieh]...continued
The First Khanqaah Of The Chishteeyah Order
Ram Deo, now Abdul laah informed Khawajah Saahib [Rahmatul Laah Alaieh] of impending danger from the enraged king and his followers.. Allaah [Ta’aalaa] had given them respect so none could disgrace them. Nothing could swerve Khawaajah Saahib because Allaah [Ta’aalaa]’s Divine Help was with him and the Look of Blessing of the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him, his family and his companions). He was sent by them to purify the place of polytheism (shirk) and misbelief (kufr). Abdul Laah told Khawaajah Saahib that he had inherited some land, which he owns and he gifted it to Khawaajah Saahib.
He said that they could build a Masjid and Khanqaah on this land to use as a base for propagating Islaam. Khawaajah Saahib agreed and thousands of his followers helped to build a Masjid and a few rooms. The teaching of the Holy Qur'aan, gatherings of zikr and lectures was started and people flocked to the Khanaqaah and accepted Islaam. The king now said that the greatest Hindu magicians should be commissioned to challenge Khawaajah Saahib and in this way they could discredit him as another magician.
