His answer, in his own words

jazak Allah." Maulana, agla sawal shohra pur se umar abdullah sahib ne bheja hai. unhon ne likha hai ke aaj musalman zam zam ke pani ko bohat muqaddas mante hain. kya yeh sahi hai? nahi, yeh sab kuch sahi hai. zam zam aik nemat hai, muqaddas nahi hai. muqaddas ka tasawwur hi galat hai. zam zam aik nemat hai, bas to nemat to lijiye is ko.

asal jo zam zam ko dekh kar aap ko janna chahiye, woh yeh ke Allah ke kuch bande, yani hajra, ismail aur ibrahim, ne yeh faisla kiya ke Allah ke mission ke liye unhein aik desert mein basna hai. desert mein is is mein mission ko chalana hai. wahi kaha tha, aik aisa group tayar karna jo poore banon mein, poore banon mein deconditioned ho, mahol se asar na liya ho.

to that was possible only through desert trail bhi. to us waqt Allah taala ki madad zahir hui aur sehra mein pani zahir ho gaya. tab un ko yaqeen ho gaya ke is kaam ko karna hi karna hai, kyunke jahan hum kuch bebas ho jayenge, wahan Allah maujood hai. to asal cheez muqaddas nahi hai, asal cheez Allah ki help ka yaqeen hai. musalman bas is ko muqaddas samajh kar ke jate hain, use late hain, apne kapde mein bhagate hain. yeh sab bilkul bekar baatein hain. zam zam aap ko taqdisen yaad dilat

a. zam zam aap ko yaad dilata hai ke chahe tum sehra mein ho, chahe tum kahin bhi ho, Allah ke liye uth khade ho. Allah wahin tum ko mil jayega. Allah ki apni foujon ke sath, apni madad ke sath wahin zahir ho jayega. yeh hai zam zam ka paigham. maulana peshawar se wasal ali khan sahib ka sawal hai. unhon ne likha hai ke main pehli dafa Maulana sahib ka talk sun raha hoon aur mera yeh sawal hai ke inaam yafta log kaun hain jis ke baray mein Quran pak mein aaya hai?
