Deobandi View – 2: The Prophet is aware of his
nation
Fazaail-e-Aamaal mentions numerous quotations in support of the
Deobandi view that the Prophet is aware of his nation and also
helps them physically in their needs.
1. Moulana Zakariyah mentions, “Indeed, one should have the
idea in mind (when standing in front of the Prophet’s grave), that,
‘Here I stand in his presence as if he is still alive, because as for
the knowledge of his position, the condition of his Ummah
(Muslim Nation) and their intentions are concerned, Rasoolullah
(Allah’s Messenger) knows of it now in death, as he knew about
the Ummah in his lifetime.” 219
2. “Hazrat Sulaiman bin Sahim said that he saw the Holy Prophet
in a dream and asked him, “O Prophet of Allah! Are you aware of
the people who visit you and say salaam to you?” The Holy
Prophet said, “O Yes I recognize them and acknowledge their
salaam.” 220
3. “A man by the name of Musa Darir said, “I was sailing in a ship
which started to sink. At the same time, drowsiness overpowered
me. In that condition, the Holy Prophet taught me a Darood and
said, ‘The people aboard the ship should recite it one thousand
times.’ The Darood was hardly recited 300 times, the ship
recovered its normal sailing.” 221 222

222 Allah relates the reaction of disbelievers when faced with affliction
in Soorah Yunus. Even though the disbelievers associate partners
with Allah in ease, they would turn to Allah alone in difficulty and
supplicate to Him Alone because they knew and firmly believed that
