Colonel Amiruddin Sahib - The silent voice of Tablighi Jamaat

Colonel Amiruddin Sahib the Amir of Canada,  has died today (18th Sep 2012) at the age of 99 in Toronto (Innaa Lillahi Wa Innaa Ilayhi Rajioon). He converted over 5500 people to Islam and said he stopped counting to maintain his sincerity.  He was a man of complete sincerity, a shining light in these dark times.  For over 55 years of his life he traveled more than 72 countries, spending whatever he  earned in his life in the path of Allah .He practice was to go in the path of Allah for about 8 months in a year and spends  4 months with his family. 
Colonel Amiruddin Sahab RA born to a Scottish lady, Ella Allen later to become Halima Farid ud-Din, who converted to Islam when she was  16 years old after dreaming of the Kaaba. she married Nawab Farid ud-Din Khan a descendent of the prophet SAW two years later while he was in Scotland.  In 1967, Colonel Amiruddin Sahab RA was permitted to enter the lower inner sanctum behind the auspicious golden gate and visit the tomb of the Prophet SAW where he says, he heard the Prophet SAW reply to his salaam, which caused him to fall unconscious.  He was also instrumental in bringing Shaykh Abdul Fattah  Abu Ghuddah  to Hyderabad, India.  
He was initiated into the Naqshbandi tariqat by the Muhaddith of Deccan Syed Abdullah Shah Naqshbandi RA and also of Moulana Yusuf Kandhalvi RA. He moved on foot through jungles of Africa, in the heat of Arabia and the bitter cold of Europe to spread Islam.  In one of his banyans he states;
        “It was the time when there was tension in south Africa between whites and blacks, jamat were not given permission to enter. Hazrat Moulana Yusuf RA asked Colonel Amiruddin Sahab RA  " you are Colonel and u must find a way to enter into Africa".  A plan was made, they walked the jungles of Africa for around 4000 km in the path of Allah and it took 7 months . Only two days had passed that police caught them and put the jamat in jail. People came to know that a jamat has come from India and were bringing meals to prison. The meals were so much that they were distributed in prison and many of the prisoners accepted Islam by seeing the atmosphere in jail and preaching’s of the jamat.


Since Colonel sab was a white man they requested him to leave Africa but he replied “we want to meet our brothers here.” He was then questioned by the leading officer for  the reason  of coming to Africa, he took out a pen and paper and the  wrote six points of tabligh and said 

                                              "we  have come to learn this.”


I request you pray surah ikhlas 3 times for Isale Sawab;
Abu Saed al-Kurri (may Allah be pleased with him)  said: “The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to his Companions: ‘Could any one of you not recite one third of the Quran in one night?’ They found the idea too difficult and said: ‘Who among us could do that, O Messenger of Allah?’ He said, ‘Allahu’l-ahad, al- samad [i.e., Surah al-Ikhlas] is one third of the Quran.’” (Reported by Bukhari, 4628)
May Allah protect him from the punishment of the grave and give him Jannatul 
Firdaus. (AMEEN)
The author of Fatawa i-Rahimiyya wrote, “The famed preacher from Hyderabad (Deccan), Colonel Amiruddin, at whose hands nearly three thousand Americans have accepted Islam” - Fatawa-e-Rahimiyah Vol.1, Lajpuri, 1975.
