The status of saints and their miracles in light of the Holy Quran and the Hadith

 Fourth proof

Allah Most High says in Surah Naml:

Then the one who had some knowledge of the (heavenly) Book submitted: ‘I can bring it to you before your vision turns back to you (i.e. even before the twinkling of an eye). So, when (Sulaiman [Solomon]) saw it (the throne) placed before him, he said: ‘This is by the Grace of my Lord so that He may put me to the test whether I thank (Him) or not. And he who thanks (Allah) his gratitude is for the good of his own self, and he who is ungrateful surely my Lord is Self-Sufficient, Most Generous.’  Surah Naml (27:40)

In this verse of the Holy Quran, a miracle of a follower of Hadhrat Sulaiman (May peace be upon him) is mentioned.  When Hadhrat Sulaiman (May peace be upon him) asked his army that who among them would be able to bring the throne of Bilquis.  A strong and powerful genie said:  I can bring it before you rise from your seat.  Hadhrat Sulaiman (May peace be upon him) said that the throne was wanted even sooner than that.  Then Hadhrat Asif bin Barkhiyya asked for permission and appeared with the throne within the blink of an eye.

That throne was of gold and was bejeweled with various precious stones.  It was installed in the innermost palace of all 7 palaces.  The doors were locked.  Guards were present.  It is beyond comprehension that how Hadhrat Asif bin Barkhiyya carried such a heavy and securely kept thing from Yemen to Syria within the blink of an eye.
