		Hazrat Nizamudeen Auliya (rahmatullahi alaihi) is known by many titles, and deservedly so, for he is one of the greatest saints that India has produced.
		Hazrat Nizamudeen Auliya (rahmatullahi alaihi) was born in Baduan in 636 a.h.
		Banquets were prepared every day, but Nizamudeen Auliya (rahmatullahi alaihi) subsisted on a piece of barley bread and some water for sehri - and sometimes he would not even eat that much, thinking of all the needy who could not even afford this.

	Auliya (Friends, Protectors): According to Quran and Sunnah
		Take not the Jews and the Christians as 'Auliya' (friends, protectors, helpers etc.), they are but 'Auliya' to one another.
		Surely, they have been in despair to receive any good in the Hereafter, just as the disbelievers have been in despair about those (buried) in graves (that they will not be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection).
		The Arabic word "Auliya" is not interchangeable with "friend" in all uses of the word.

		He heard everyone's problems sympathetically and, in his peculiar way, created in his visitors that unshakable faith in GOD, respect for moral values and that proper attitude of mind which helped them in self-control in the midst of the severest tribulations and trials of life.
		If Khawaja Muin-ud'din Chishti introduced the silsilah in India and Khawaja Qutb-ud'din Bakhtiyar Kaki popularised it in Dehli and her neighbourhood, it was through the efforts of BABA FARID that the organization struck roots into the soil and spread far and wide.
		These legendary stories may reveal the working of the mind of the people amongst whom they were current, but they do not help us, in the least, in understanding the saint himself or in interpreting his teachings properly.

		In theory, all that is necessary for one to become a Muslim is to recite sincerely the short statement of faith known as the Shahadah I witness that there is no god but God [Allah] and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God.
		Inside the Dargah Sharif, pilgrims offer baskets of red roses and burn incense while Qawwals sing devotional songs written by Hazrat Amir Khusro, a gifted poet of Persian and Urdu and beloved disciple of Hazrat Nizamuddin, who was asked by his master to write verses in the colloquial language in order to bring people closer.
		Although in an historical sense Muslims regard their religion as dating from the time of Muhammad in the early 7th century AD, in a religious sense they see it as identical with the true monotheism which prophets before Muhammad, such as Abraham (Ibrahim), Moses (Musa), and Jesus (Isa), had taught.

		During this long companionship Hazoor Qalandar Baba Auliya prepared his able student, both at conscious and subconscious levels, to enable transference of his spiritual knowledge to him.
		When Hazoor Qalandar Baba Auliya was about to pass away he blew three times at Khawaja Shamsuddin Azeemi’s head and uttered… “You are to take my place and run my Silsila (Sufi Order) after me…the people who run a mission work obsessively”.
		Al-Shaikh Azeemi’s mission and his invitation to the whole of mankind is that they should learn the Inner Knowledge and realise their latent potential so that they may get to know the Lord Creator of the universe, and hence enjoy a blissful life both here and in the hereafter.

	Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad did not claim to be a prophet in "Haqiqat-ul-Wahy"
		While the auliya, including Hazrat Mirza sahib, are mentioned by Hadith reports in general terms, such as “The ulama of my Umma are like the prophets of the Israelites”, the Promised Messiah is the only one about whom there are Hadith reports identifying him specifically.
		While the auliya and khalifas (including Hazrat Mirza sahib) are described in Hadith reports as being like prophets, the Promised Messiah is also directly called “Jesus”, “son of Mary”, and “prophet of God”, without saying “like” due to extreme similarity.
		As regards the quotes presented by our Qadiani critics, we have shown that the use of the words prophet or messenger for the Promised Messiah in those quotes is in a metaphorical or linguistic sense, the sense in which these terms have been applied to the saints and reformers who arise among the Muslims.

		Missionary activity slowed down under Nizam al-din Auliya, not because of any new concept of eclecticism, but because he held that the Hindus were generally excluded from grace and could not be easily converted to Islam unless they had the opportunity to be in the company of the Muslim saints for considerable time."
		Of course, the Auliya who lived in a sprawling khanqah and re- ceived rich gifts out of plunder was convinced that he himself was such a Muslim saint.
		Both of them were leading disciples of the Auliya.

		Those who take disbelievers for 'Auliya' (protectors or helpers or friends) instead of believers, do they seek honour, power and glory with them?Verily,then to Allah belongs all honour, power and glory.
		Thus, on the basis of this contemptible reasoning, they conclude that it makes no difference whether one begs from Allah or Auliya because the two are one being.
		Verily, the Auliya' of Allah [i.e., those who believe in the Oneness of Allah and fear Allah much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden), and love Allah much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)], no fear shall come upon them nor shall they grieve.
