[edit] Early life
Maulana Ilyas Attar Qadri was born in Junagarh Gujrat, India in the 1950s,His full name is Hazrat Allama Maulana Muhamamd Ilyas Attar Qadiri .[2][3] His father, Abdul Rahman, migrated to Sindh, Pakistan when many Muslims were facing trouble in India. They stayed for a little while in Sindh and then moved to Karachi.
Abdul Rahman died while on the pilgrimage (hajj), when Maulana Muhamamd Ilyas Attarwas only an infant. Ilyas Attar Qadri had a brother (Abdul Ghani) who helped Ilyas in his youth, and who died in a train accident. A short while after Abdul Ghani's death Ilyas Attar's mother died.
He is also Known as Ameer-e-Ahle sunnat, Moulana Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadri mudda is correcting the society. Thousands of people have repented from their sins because of his sincere efforts. This include such people who used to loot and ruin the honour of others, but now the same people are providing security to others. Countless drinkers, the addictive to Heroin have become the respectful citizens of the society because of the blessed company of Ameer-e-Ahle sunnat. Therefore, it is narrated a story of a descrutive person in Karachi here.
Thousands of People have become regular and punctual at their prayers because of the madani company of him. He is The Best Man of The World for Muslims and very Muslims are Love Him very much. And They called him "BAPU" it's means Father.
[edit] Character and Habits
Attitude (Husn-e-Akhlaq):
The attitude of him Sunnat has contributed a lot in the progress of Dawat-e-Islami. Allah has blessed himwith great Husn-e-Akhlaq. He meets with everyone with a gentle smile. It is seen that where one would get very angry, he would keep smiling at such occasions. Even such incidents are witnessed that him is walking on a street and people would shout bad words, but he would pray for their forgiveness and would not curse in return. if him had taunted someone because of the undesciplened madani work, he would immediately make him happy, mostly by presenting some gifts.
- Three talaq to anger:
He often advises muballagheen (preachers) that if you want to do madani work, then you should give three divorces to anger. Because if someone frequently gets angry, he cann't do the madani work. He further says that if you cann't present anyone, then just meet people with attention and smile, it will be enough to win their hearts. He also says that if you move your hand on the back of a cat with love, the cat would bend his back in a curve and start rubbing his body with your legs. When an animal receives love, starts rubbing his body with your legs, then what about a human being who is given sense. Moreover, he says, remember! "Heart, not with sword, but can be won with husn-e-akhlaq (good character)".
- Forgiveness:
One of the qualities of Maulan is that he doesn't take revenge from his personal enemies. He often says that
if some one has hurt me or cursed me, I have forgiven him. Even if someone does so in future, I have forgiven him in advance. Because I have read in Hadees-e-Pak, the translation of which goes like that one companion radhi Allaho ta'ala anhu came to Prophet and requested, Ya Rasool Allah! I don't have any wealth that I donate, but I have made attention that who ever deprives me of my right, I have forgiven him in advance. At this, Sayyaduna Jibra'il alaihissalam came to Prophet and requested that Allah says to give good news to your this companion that you being an abd (worshipper) forgives other people; therefore, We being the creator forgive you too.
He often advises Muballagheen and other Islamic brothers to always control the anger. He says that
you make those happy who break with you. Whoever deprives you, you give him, and never take revenge. And don't even think to do so from Muslims. Just forgive others for the sake of the pleasure of Allah. Because Allah says in Qur'an: "And who restrain anger and who pardon men. And virtuous people are dear to Allah." 4:134 Translation from Kanzul Iman
- If some one assassinates me
The Character of the forgiveness of Maulana can be further seen from this that he sometimes say to his mo'taqadeen (people associated with him) that supposedly
if some one assassinates me, do not say anything to my murderer, and do not go to any court because I have already forgiven all the miseries and problem that may come from Muslims. I also ask my family to forgive their rights and they should not go to court either. No one is allowed to go on strike and disturb the daily works in my country. Even if I get some honor and rank on the day of resurrection, I would not enter in the heaven without taking my murderer provided that he had died as a Muslim on faith. Because if he had not assassinated me, I would not have gotten martyrdom. Therefore, why shouldn't I pay heed to he who gave me martyrdom.
