‏اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُم وَرَحْمَةُ اَللهِ وَبَرَكاتُه

Dear friends I am glad to share with you that the Members and the admins of Mehdavia Times group are delivering a highly commendable service to our community apart from administering this esteemed group.  

On last Saturday and Sunday (12^th & 13^th Feb 2022) I had the privileges to spend a lot of time with Brother Inayath Ulla Khan Saheb who was on a visit to Hyderabad to attend the Taziyati Program Organised by CNQE, Hyderabad in honor of Marhum Hz. Faqeer Syed Shafiullah Khundmiri Saheb who expired on 6^th Feb 2022 in Channapatna.  I took the opportunity to invite him to be my guest during his stay in Hyderabad. 

Alhamdulliah, we started early on Sunday and visited Dairah Shuhada Chanchalguda along with him. We had a series of conversations on a number of topics and met quite a few persons of high intellect and knowledge in Hyderabad.  Some of them are Peer wo Murshid Hazrat Sarafaraz Miyan Tashrifullahi Sahab, Hazrat Maqsood Ali Khan Sahab, author of scores of books, Janab Syed Mahmood Rafat Mujtahedi, Deputy Director T.S. Department of Translation, Janab Shahid Ali Khan, Sr. Journalist, former reporter of Saudi Gazette Riyadh, K.S.A. We also wanted to meet Peer wo Murshid Hazrat Manzoor Miya Sahab Ahle Hasteda and Peer wo Murshid Hazrat Ather Miyan Sahab Ahle Hasteda but on account of their absence from Hyderabad we could not see them.  Hazrat Ather Miyan's  father Janab Syed Ateeq Miya Sahab offered lunch to the guest along with me and  Janab S.A.Q. Jilani Saheb. Mr. Jilani escorted Mr. Khan from his arrival till departure.  He also took him to Peer wo Murshid Hazrat Bakhtiyar Alam Sahab in Musheerabad and Dairah Hazrat Bandagi Miyan Shah-e-Qasim Mujtahid-e-Giroh ^ra.

A mini valedictory program was held at the residence of Hazrat Maqsood Ali Khan Saheb.  Mr. Khan had brought the certificates and books for the winners (residing in Hyderabad) of the 2^nd International Essay Writing Competition held in 2021 organized by Mehdavia Times Welfare Trust. Most of the Certificates and books have already been couriered or delivered in person. 

His team is planning to organize the third international essay writing competition to be held in Ramadhan this year Insha Allah. They are also having planned Urdu coaching program to enable the youth to understand our deen in a better way Insha Allah, we may expect an official announcement soon from Mehdavia Times themselves.  

May Allah accept their perseverance, bless this team with still more wisdom. Bless us all with eiman and understanding of our Deen.  Aameen!
