34. The Sultan Salahuddin Ayubi . . A Miracle of Shaykh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani from Baghdad
When Sultan Salahuddin Ayubi was on his death bed, someone asked him "Oh Ayubi you are a great warrior of Islam, you have been fighting in the path of Allah for such a long time but you weren’t martyred, you weren’t blessed with martyrdom" Sultan Salahuddin Said : ‘’Throughout my life I was yearning to be martyred in the path of Allah, but did you know that the sword of the enemy could not touch my neck’’, he said why Oh Sultan Salahuddin, why couldn’t the sword of the enemy touch your neck ? Sultan Salahuddin Ayubi said ‘’In my childhood my father took me to Shaykh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani and Shaykh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani placed his hand on my neck, how could the sword of the enemy touch my neck when my neck was touched by the blessed hands of Shaykh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani Rahimahillah.’’
