Jab se ustaad Abdul Sattar Ghauri ki wafaat ka suna hai mere kaanon mein 'Shah-e-Pakistan' aur 'Shah-e-Islam' ke alfaaz goonj rahe hain aur afsos ho raha hai ke ab yeh alfaaz is pyaar ke saath sunne ko phir nah milenge. Ghauri sahab ka yeh pyaar tha ke jab bhi woh mujhe dekhte to walahana andaaz mein Shah Pakistan aur Shah Islam keh kar musaafaha karte. Halankay woh agar hamara salaam hi qabool kar lete to yeh bhi bohot tha. Ghauri sahab se taaruf to ek ustaad ki hesiyat se hua tha, woh Almoraad mein humse juneer class ko angrezi parhaya karte thay, lekin baad ke saalon mein woh mujhe chhote bhai sa 'protocol' dene lage aur jab maine 'Sue-e-Haram' ka aghaaz kiya to unhone na sirf isko bohot saraaha balkay baqaida iska mutaalia bhi karte aur baaz waqat iski behtari ke liye tajaweez bhi irshad farmate. Ghauri sahab ki zindagi ek ba-maqsaad zindagi ki behtareen misaal hai. Unke mazi se to main agah nahi lekin jo das baarah baras un se talluq raha hai uske baare mein, main yaqeenan gawah hun ke unhone apna saara waqt aur sari salahiyatein Bible aur Masihiyat ki tehqiq par sirf kar rakhi thi. Un se qabl mera Masihiyat ke baare mein ilm Rana Muhammad Aslam marhoom ki riwayaat par hi moqoof tha. Rana sahab ne bhi rad-e-Masihiyat aur tehqiq-e-Bible ko apni zindagi ka maqsad bana rakha tha aur bawajood apni mufloki halat ke din raat is mein magn rehte the. Baqaidgi se apna risala Al-Mazahib hamein ata farmate aur shahdarah se jab bhi mal road ki taraf aate to state bank mein humse mile baghair nah jaate. Lekin Ghauri sahab se milne ke baad Rana marhoom ki tehqiqat bohot peechay nazar aane lagi. Bawajood ilmi masroofiyat aur lagan ke Ghauri sahab us ilmi zameer aur ajab se bilkul paak thay jisme aksar ulema mubtala nazar aate hain. Sadgi aur rushafgari unke mizaaj ka hissa thi is liye mujh se 'chhote' bhi un se bila jhijhak mil lete thay aur woh bhi koi aar mehsoos nahi karte thay. Unki zindagi tasneef aur rabbanaawat se bhi paak thi. Saaf mehsoos hota tha ke unka zahir aur batan ek hai aur yeh khubi shayad hazaar ilmi khubiyo par bhari hai. Ghauri sahab ke namaz parhane ka andaaz bohot khubsurat tha. Almoraad mein bohot se namazain unki imamat mein parhne ka moqa mila, main unka muqtadi ban kar koi janaza na parh saka lekin ek dost kehate thay ke agar unka intiqaal ho jaaye to janaza Ghauri sahab parhaayein kyunke woh bohot ehtimam aur khushu se janazey ki namaz parhate hain. Mera khayal hai ke Allah Kareem ne un par bara karam farmaya ke woh jo tehqiq ya kaam karna chahte thay usay apni zindagi mein bohot had tak pahuncha gaye, baqi kaam ummeed hai ke unka sahabzadah mukammal kar le ga. Aur jis tarah zindagi mein Allah ka un par karam raha ummeed hai ke aakhirat mein bhi un par us se bhi barh kar karam hoga aur yaqeenan farishton ne unki rooh ko arj'ae ila rabbik radiyah marziyah keh kar rab ke huzoor pesh kiya hoga. Allah unke darajat ko mazeed buland farmaye aur un khataaon se darguzar farmaye. Woh maslakan ahl-e-hadith lekin mashruba sufia thay aur yahan sufia se meri muraad ta'assub aur nafrat se paak hona aur doosron ki bhalai pesh nazr rakhna hai. Haqeeqat yeh hai ke aaj ke munta shir alam Islam ko tasawwuf ke aqaid to nahi lekin tasawwuf ki baaz mashrati aur akhlaqi riwayat apnanay ki shiddat zaroorat hai. Hamare ek Falastini dost kehate hain ke aaj ke alam Islam mein Hanafi, Shafi'i, Maliki wagairah se aage barh kar Salafi (Jihadi), Tablighi aur SufiYe ki wazeh taqseem hoti nazar arahi hai. Mujhe un ki baat se bohot had tak ittefaq hai lekin meri khwahish hai ke aalam-e-Islam mein agar ye taqseem hona mustaqbil mein muqarrar hai to phir soofiyat ka palaa bhari rahe lekin kaun se soofi? Woh jo Ghauri Sahib jaise hon aur ya phir Shahzaad Duslime se. Aik patloon mein aur aik lambi daari aur apne rawayati rumal mein. Ke 'patloon' aur 'rumal' ka ye milaap aur mohabbat hi hamare bohot se masaail ka hal hai.
