25000 times a day. Apart from other recitations, I also perform Dhikr 25000 times a day.
His manners were such that every person would think that Hadhrat loves me like a parent and does not love anybody else like that. Almost 200 disciples would be living in his Khanqah and thousand would be spent on them. Nobody knew from where that money would come and how hundreds of disciples would be taken care of. If sometimes nothing would be available, he would also remain hungry along with others. His Tawakkal (Trust in Allah SWT) was such that the King of Deccan Nawab Nasir Ud Daula would be always eager to meet him, but he never even though of going to the royal mansion. He did not even accept any monetary contributions or any endowments (Jagir). Raja Chandulal, the minister of Deccan and other nobles tried to serve him with money and endowments, but Hadhrat never accepted anyone’s request. Shamsul Umra himself came to his house and after a lot of request offered him Rs.500, which Hadhrat accepted, but immediately distributed it among those present. Hadhrat Maulvi Mir Shujauddin (May Allah shower His Mercy on him), the author of Kashf al Khulasa was his contemporary and would often come to meet him. Other Mashaiqeen of Hyderabad would also come and gain spiritual blessings. Hadhrat would celebrate the Urs of his master, Hadhrat Ghulam Ali Shah (May Allah shower His Mercy on him) in a very simple manner. There would be a sweet and the Holy Quran would be recited a couple of times and that would be it. Apart from him, the Urs of other Elders of the Naqshbandi order would also be celebrated in the same manner. A few recitations of the Holy Quran would be performed and a sweet would be distributed.
His attire would be scholarly, as per the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) and the Sahabah. He would be very pleased with the person who would follow the rules of the Shariah and the Sunnah and if anyone would not, he would advise him. Scholars used to be present all the time and he would be pleased with sessions of scholars. Bait with him had its own effect. Anybody who would become his Mureed (disciple) would stop from breaking the rules of the Shariah.
