Hazrat Khawza Hakim Sunai (rahmatullahi alaihe)

Hazrat Khawza Hakim Sunai (rahmatullahi alaihe) had the distinction to see the Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) in a dream.

Hazrat Khawza Hakim Sunai (rahmatullahi alaihe) narrates that in the dream he saw that the Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) had covered his blessed face. Hakim Sunai (rahmatullahi alaihe) ran to the Beloved Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) and kissed his blessed feet. Afterwards, Hakim Sunai (rahmatullahi alaihe) asked: “Oh Rasool Allah sallallahu alaihe wa sallam! Let my life be sacrificed for you. Why have you covered your blessed face from me? At this, the Beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) hugged Hakim Sunai (rahmatullahi alaihe) and stated: “Oh Khwaja! You have recited so much Durood that I feel ashamed to even show my face to you. I am thinking what to give you in return.”

Hazrat Khawza Hakim Sunai (rahmatullahi alaihe) passed away in 425 Hijri.
