In 1425, Burhanuddin Moula RA was present in Karachi for his 93rd milaad. Mumineen converged from near and far with different araa’iz and hadaaya on behalf of their respective cities.

We went from Qahera with a 93″ inch cake weighing 93 kgs built around the concept of a world map with an ayat from the Quran in-scripted on it.

The theme: Burhanuddin Moula RA would save us in this world. 

Now when the cake was presented to Moulana RA, the Qasre-aali saahebo around him explained to him the theme. Someone said, “Moula, 93 kgs nu cake chhey’ and Moula RA asked to verify. Then Shehzada Taha bhaisaheb Najmuddin DM asked my father to submit a proper araz.

My father fumbled and quite inexplicably did not know what to say and he ended up saying “Moula aap aa dunya si chhuraawnaar chho!”.

Moulana RA called him closer, put his hand on my father’s hand and said, “Yahaan aawo! Tamne kahu chhu, na, tamne kahu chhu..tamein tamaam aalam-e-imaan ma mumineen taraf si mane mubarakbaadi araz karo chho!”

Small instance, but Moula RA taught us how to submit an araz in the proper way by rephrasing the theme; it also shows how He RA always had mumineen in his thoughts; he then smiled and had a spoonful of cake.
