I told them that as I was going on a long journey so they shouldn’t do so and I would pray for their forgiveness. They insisted that they were quite poor and I should spend some time with them and let their wishes be granted. When their insistence became intense then an old lady (who was also a djinn) came forward and said, “If I tell you my nisbah (ancestral linkage), you would never refuse us.” She was about to add some more when I interrupted her and requested her not to say anything further as the old age is one of the greatest nisbah. I requested them to clear the track as it may be troublesome for the other people passing by there. Thankfully, they agreed to it.
Forgiveness lying along side with the dead
I accompanied with them. Then we found a middle aged dead body. I bathed and clothed it with Kafan (shroud). Then we offered the funeral. They were quite poor and were living a miserable life. Even they had to borrow to arrange the funeral. I gave them ten thousand rupees from my pocket for the look after of their guests and returned. That old lady again came to me and she seems to be quite gratified and said, ‘I don’t have the words to thank you but it seemed that the dead had been granted forgiveness by the Almighty after your funeral prayer as I have witnessed some signs of that.’’
