Once some people came to Sayyīdunā Ghauš-ul-A’ẓam عَلَیۡهِ رَحْمَةُ اللهِ الۡاَ کۡرَم and said, ‘O friend of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, we heard screams from a grave of a cemetery in Bāb-ul-Azj. Your Honour! Please shower your generosity in some way so his punishment is alleviated.’ He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه asked the people, ‘Was he among my disciples?’
The people replied, ‘We don't know.’ He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه then asked, ‘Did he attend my court?’ They revealed their lack of knowledge on that.’ He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه asked, ‘Did he ever eat my food?’ They revealed their lack of knowledge on that too. He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه then asked, ‘Did he ever offer Ṣalāĥ behind me?’ and again the people gave the same reply.
Sayyīdunā Ghauš-e-A’ẓam عَلَیۡهِ رَحْمَةُ اللهِ الۡاَ کۡرَم bowed his blessed head and signs of his might and dignity could be witnessed. After a short while, he said the angels have informed me, ‘He has seen you and he had faith in you, hence Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has had mercy on him.’ اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, the screams from the grave terminated thereof. (Baĥjat-ul-Asrār, pp. 194)
