There was a guy we met in Raiwind who told
us a story of a man who attained the Special Sight through piety.
Special Sight means that the Invisible
Veil in front of the eyes is somehow removed or not there anymore.
The guy continued his story;
“That
man never used to have food from market. He used to grow vegetables by himself
and was careful in arranging meat and chicken whenever he felt the need. After
a while he started seeing other people not in the usual way but in the form of
animals and other creatures. Some people got the head of donkey and some are
dogs. Rest of the body is like normal human beings. Basically he got free of the
Veil in front of his eyes. He could not believe it and got very much stressed.
Also scared, he reached somewhere before time. There might be some other
reason. He consulted this issue with his senior; the senior smiled and asked
his servant to bring my brother a cup of tea from the market (Bazaari Chai). After having that tea
that man became normal and the Veil was back on like the way it used to be. Finally,
he started seeing everyone the usual way.”
During the times of Moses (PBUH), we know
that people used to get transformed in to non-human beings due to their sins.
Especially we remember the incident of “The Butcher & His Parents”. But
afterwards, it stopped happening due to the Prayer of our beloved Prophet
Muhammad (PBUH). We should be grateful to that.
I realized the importance of Bazaari Chai after
hearing this story from that Raiwind guy, and also wondered, what if I had met
that man in the time of his special sight?
