Truthfulness of Hazrat Abdul Quadir Zilani/ Truth always triumphs.’: In his boyhood, Hazrat Abdul Quadir Zilani

 

During his boyhood, Hazrat Abdul Quadir Jilani was preparing to leave his home to attend school in Bagdad. On the eve of his departure, his mother imparted two valuable pieces of advice to him. She told him, "My son, never tell a lie and don't become frightened in danger." The young boy took his mother's advice to heart as he embarked on his journey, accompanied by a group of merchants, towards the distant city of Bagdad.

 

The path was fraught with danger as the region was infested with robbers. After five days of travel, a group of robbers accosted the travelers. In the ensuing chaos, one of the robbers seized the boy. However, the leader of the gang intervened, stating that the boy had nothing of value on him. To the surprise of all, the boy spoke up, "No, you are mistaken. I have forty gold coins sewn into my sleeves."

 

The leader was curious as to why the boy had revealed this information. The boy replied that his mother had cautioned him never to tell a lie, and he could not disobey her. The response of the truthful boy moved the leader, who experienced a change of heart. He renounced his life of crime and persuaded his men to do the same. Inspired by the young boy's honesty, the gang members endeavored to live better lives, gradually reforming themselves and eschewing all their bad habits.
