Bu Ali Shah Qalander


When Qalander Baba Auliya used to work in the monthly Naqqad, it became my routine to go to Qalander Baba Auliya in his office in the evening and would escort him to my but near Rattan Talab, all friends would gather there and a meeting would take place. Once when I came home at noon, Zubair Alunad Ansari told me that Qalander Baba Auliya and two others are in the room and the door is bolted from inside. I thought of serving them with a cup of tea so I lit the stove, put the water on it and went out buy milk. When I returned with milk they all were gone. I felt sorry for missing them and that I couldn't serve them. Anyway, when in the evening, I went to Qalander Baba Auliya, I said, "I wanted to serve you tea but you left. And, who were with you, sir?" He said, Bu Ali Shah Qalander and Khwaja Moeenuddin Chishty had come to discuss few things about law. Till date I feel sorry that I missed the occasion of seeing those two great saints. Had I sent Zubair for the milk, I would have been blessed with an opportunity of meeting them.
