Shamshuddin Miya
In June 1918, Baba made some arrangements, according to Muslim
customs, which are done previous to the death of a person.
He sent Rs.250 to Shamshuddin Miya, a Muslim fakir at Aurangabad
through Khasim, son of Bade Baba of Shirdi, and also sent a garland
for arranging Moul, Qawali and Nyas.
He then sent the following message.
"On ninth day of the ninth month Allah would be taking away the
lamp he lit. This is the grace of Allah."
Next day when Khasim reached Aurangabad and met Shamshuddin, without
his telling him, Shamshuddin told the contents of Baba’s message
As per Baba’s wish he arranged in the name of Baba recitation about
Paigambar, drums were played for Muslim saints.
He spent all the money sent by Baba by arranging feeding of all who
were present.
Next day Khasim and Shamshuddin went to the great Muslim saint,
Banne Mia, and found him standing in a peculiar position.
When anyone went near him, he got angry and scolded and hit them.
Everyone was cautioned not to go near him But Shamshuddin without
fear went near him and after putting the garland sent by Baba around
his neck, conveyed the message sent by him.
On hearing the message Banne Miya wept, since Baba would be leaving
his mortal body.
The Ninth day of the ninth month in Urdu and Arabic calendars were
equivalent to 15 October, 1918 Ekadasi.
