Burhanuddin Moula RA often said: “mein tamne koi waqat bhulnaar nathi“

Just as he assured the responsibility for the after-life of every mumin, he continued to be their savior in this world as well.

Take my instance. My husband had an accident seven years ago as a result of which he lost his memory. Since age was not in his favour, his prospects of pulling through were best described as slim.

If one asked him his name, he would be blank. If a relative walked in, his face would be flicker-less, as he had almost lost his sight as well.

His doctor described him precisely: ‘as blank as a sheet of paper’.

We would try various alternatives. ‘Pappa, do you remember this?” No response.

We would ask, “Pappa, do you remember that?” No response.

Once we asked “Pappa, Maulana ne olkho cho, su naam che?”

And suddenly his brows arched and he shot back: “Kewi waat kare che, maula ne kaun na olkhe – Taher Saifuddin Maula aney Burhanuddin Maula!” And then back to silence.

A few hours before he expired, he interrupted his silence with “aa badha aya che, koi jaga jawanu che?”

We forget people. Maula TUS doesn’t.
