Assalamoalaikum I feel fortunate and blessed to have experienced the company of pious people since my childhood. Hazrat Maulana Shah Abdul Ghani Pholpori Sb RA who was a learned Alim and a devoted dicsiple of Hazrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi Sb RA used to say that the greatest gift from Allah SWT after Imaan is the company of His pious people. May Allah guide us all towards His love and help us find the company of the pious souls, whom Allah swt loves. Wasslam Akhtar Ghazi, Karachi, Pakistan
