Ihyaaud Deen An Effort to Revive Deen in Totality
Hadhrat Qaari Siddeeq Ahmad Baandwi (RahmatullahiAlaih) once mentioned regarding his shaikh Hadhrat Moulana As`adullah Sahib (Rahmatullahi Alaih):
Moulana As`adullah (Rahmatullahi Alaih) seldom travelled, fearing he would miss his Salaah with jamaat and his takbeer-e-ula. Once he had to go to Deoband to visit Hadhrat Qaari Muhammad Tayyib Sahib (Rahmatullahi Alaih). Prior to the journey he drew up an itinerary for the journey. He first found out the times for the trains. Those trains wherein there was a possibility of missing out Salaah with jamaat were then avoided. It was his habit to travel only on those trains wherein he would not miss his Salaah with jamaat.
Thus we travelled to Deoband in this manner. After meeting with Hadhrat Qaari Muhammad Tayyib Sahib rahmatullahi alaih we quickly returned. On our return he was also very careful that no Salaah was missed with takbeer-e-ula.” (Hayaat-e-Siddeeq – English, p. 105)
