و الصلاة و السلام على أشرف الأنبياء و المرسلين: سيدنا و حبيبنا محمد،

أما بعد:

السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركته،

The author of this book "Faza'il-e-A'amaal": Muhammad Zakariyya Kaandhalawi wrote in page 128:

"Shaykh Abu Yazeed Qurtubi (Rahmatullah alaih) writes: "On learning that one who recites ("la ilaha illa Allah") SEVENTY THOUSAND TIMES BECOMES SAFE FROM THE FIRE OF HELL, I completed this number once for my wife and then several times for my own self as a provision for the Hereafter. There used to live near us a young man who was known to be blessed with the power of Kashf (divine manifestation of unseen thing), even in respect of Paradise and Hell, but I hesitated to believe it. Once when this young man was dinning with us, he uttered a cry of agony, his breathing became difficult and he exclaimed, "I see my mother burning in fire of Hell." When I saw him so perturbed, I thought of bestowing one of my complete seventy thousand recitations of the Kalimah (i.e. saying 70,000 times la ilaha illa Allah) in favour of his mother, so that the truth of what the young man said could be tested. I quietly did so in my heart, without telling anybody else about it. But as soon as I did this, the young man felt relieved and said, "O Uncle! my mother has been relieved of the punishment of Hell!"

Then the author of this book "Faza'il-e-A'amaal": Muhammad Zakariyya Kaandhalawi wrote: "This incident proved useful to me in two ways: firstly, the blessing of reciting the Kalimah seventy thousand times was proved by actual experience, and secondly it was established that the young man was truly blessed with the power of Kashf.

This is but one of many such incidents in the lives of various individuals of this Ummat. The Sufis make their followers practise that no breath goes in or comes out without zikr of Allah. There are millions of people from the Ummat of Muhammad (Sallallaho alaihe wasallam) who have ADOPTED this practice."

I will do this refutation inshAllah in two parts for this page 128 of Faz'il-e-A'amaal:

The first part will concern the Topic of the (click) Innovation of "reciting 70,000 times la ilaha illa Allah to be saved from the Hell fire.

The second part of the refutation will be about the topic of (click) Kashf (divine manifestation of unseen things)

......To Be Continued inshAllah......
