It is narrated in `Munaqabi Sultani' that Hazrat Muhammed Siddiq
(RA) and some of his companions had sojourned for a while at the tomb of Hazrat
Sultanul Arifeen Hazrat Sultan Bahu (RA). In those days, at the entrance to the
tomb of the saint stood a large berry tree.
One day a blind man on his way to
the tomb had injured himself with a trunk from this tree. Seeing his condition, the dervishes gathered at the precincts of
the tomb to consider what should be done to avoid such an injury again. After
due consultation it was decided to cut the tree. But as all the dervishes who
were staying there at the time were live hearted saints, they decided to seek
`spiritual guidance' from Hazrat Sultan Bahu (RA) on the matter.
That very night `khalifa' Muhammed Siddiq (RA) was blessed with a
vision of Hazrat Sultan Bahu (RA), who told him not to cut the
tree. He was informed that the tree would relocate itself to the northern side
of the tomb, an area which was behind the head side of the tomb. That very
night Hazrat Muhammed Siddiq (RA) informed the other dervishes of his vision
and retired to his cell again. The next morning to everyone’s surprise the tree
had relocated to the northern side of the tomb.
