The Divine Light was luminous on the sacred face of Sultan-ul-Arifeen Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh since birth. This Light started showing its miracles since childhood. His mother remained busy in prayers and Zikr (invocation) and Tasawur (contemplation) of Ism-e-Allah Zaat (Personal Name of Allah)
as she was sure that her child would not disturb her during her
prayers. Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh did not take
milk during the days of Ramadan like Hazrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani Razi Allah Anhu. His personality was so attractive and effective since childhood that upon whom so ever, he cast his eyes,
changed his fate and he recited the creed without any persuasion and
entered Islam there and then. It was a strange situation, which worried
the non-Muslims of that area very much. After discussion, they requested
the father of Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo to make announcement, whenever
his child had to come out of his house, so that, they could keep
themselves away from the sight of this child to save their faith. Then a
strange scene was seen in Shorekot that whenever it was announced that
Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo is about to come out of his house all the
non-Muslims hid in their houses, shops or fields, but if by chance
anyone of them came in his sight, he at once recited creed and became
Muslim. This miracle of Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo continued till the end
of his life.
Once, he got very ill, a Brahman physician was called for check up but he refused to come and said, "I am afraid that if I will go in front of him I will become Muslim. Send his urine in a bottle for diagnosis of the disease." When his urine was sent to the physician, he accepted Islam as soon as he saw it. It must be clarified here that the writer of Manaqib-e-Sultani has written that urine was sent for diagnosis but according to the traditions passed on through generations, it is said that his 'shirt' was sent. Sultan-ul-Faqr sixth Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Asghar Ali Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh also supports that 'shirt' was sent.
Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh remained engrossed in heavenly experiences and doubtless spiritual triumphs from an early age. Once, he was lying at some place, a group of Hindu ascetics passed by, one of them hit him by his foot and asked him despisely to show them the way. He got up and recited the creed
.
This group of ascetics accepted Islam there and then by just his one
glance and the stroke of creed recited by his sacred tongue. All of them
afterwards became saints.
