Maulana Mohammad Jalaluddin rumi (30 September 1207-17 December 1273) is a 13th-century Persian poet, jurist, theologian and Sufi mystic.

Eventually, between the years 1215 and 1220, Hazrat Bahauddin Walad, with his entire family and a group of followers, which is included to the west. They peformed Hajj and subsequently on their journey. But it was his meeting with the dervish Shams Tabrez Hazrat on November 15, 1244 Rumi's life changed completely. Hazrat Shams had traveled in the Middle East searching and praying for someone who could "endure my company". A voice said to him: "What will you give in return?" And Hazrat Shams replied, "My head!". The voice said then: "The one you seek is Jalaluddin of Konya. "This brings the point that Maulana Rumi [RA] was a true Muslim scholar and Sufi.

History of Hazrat shams-e- tabrizi

Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra) ad. 1248 was an Iranian Sufi mystic born in the city of Tabriz in Iranian Azerbaijan. He is responsible for initiating Mawlana Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi (rah), usually known as Rumi in the West, into Islamic mysticism, and is immortalized by Rumi's poetry collection Diwan-e Shams-e Tabriz-i ("The works Shams of Tabriz ") (Ra). Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra) lived together with Rumi in Koyna in present day Turkey, for several years, and is also known to have traveled to Damascus in modern Syria.After several years with Rumi, Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra) disappeared from the pages of history quite suddenly. It is unknown what happened to him after his departure from Rumi, and there are several sites that claim to his grave, one in a remote region of the Karakoram in Northern Pakistan at a place called Ziarat, near the village Shimshall, and another in the same city that was buried in Rumi: Konya, Turkey. Rumi's love for Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra), and his grief at his death, found expression in an outpouring of music, dance, and lyrics. Rumi himself left Konya and went searching for Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra), traveled far Damascus before realizing that Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra) and himself were, in fact, "the same" As the years passed, Rumi attributed more and more of his own poetry to Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Raz), as a sign of love for his deceased friend and master. In fact, it soon becomes clear in reading Rumi that Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Raz), was elevated to a symbol of God's love for humanity, and that Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra), was a Sun ("Shams" is Arabic for "sun") shining the Light of God on Rumi.The image of Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra), which is transmitted in the later Sufi tradition is that of an ecstatic wandering mystic who theophanic teacher for Rumi. While the relationship between Rumi and Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Raz), is certainly one of the finest in the history of Islamic mysticism, the person of Shams is different from the image being projected onto him. The Maqalat Shams (oral discourses), which are now provided, Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(Ra), comes across as a scholar, who was especially interested in proving his devotion to the Prophet Muhammad (S). He repeatedly criticizes philosophers and other mystics who tried to elevate themselves above the prophet of Islam.In the contemporary period Tabrezi Shams, there is confusion over the name "Shams" as there were three persons existing at the same time. This was Tabrezi Shams, Ismaili PIR (Dai) and Ismaili Imam Shamsuddin Shams Sabzwari.The tomb in Multan, Pakistan is Pir Shams Sabzwari, but it is known as Shams Tabrez. Nobody knows exactly where the tomb of Hazrat Shams-e Tabrizi-(GAC) is located.

These Sufis followed Junaid Baghdadi Baghdad.

Hazrat sultan bahoo

 
Hazrat Sultan Bahoo (Allah bless his soul) was born on Thursday, Feb. 1628 AD 1st Jamadi-us Sani 1102H in Shorkot. Hazrat Sultan Sahib's mother's name was Hazrat Bibi Rasti Allah bless her soul. She was a pious woman. Once she dreamed that she was told they have one son and that they should name him Bahoo. This child will be a very pious and great Sufi master. He will be a wali Allah (friend of Allah) by birth.Hazrat Sultan Bahu (RA) was born in the village Shorkhote in Punjab in the year 1039 Hijri, during the reign of the great Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. As a child his Saintly qualities pale. He too, like Sheikh Abdul Qadir Gilani (RA), refuses to drink milk from his mother Sehri to iftar (before sunrise to sunset). Despite showing inherent spiritual qualities his training responsibility fell in the lap of his pious, saintly mother, Ma Rasti (RA). In his youth and early days, she was responsible for both its internal and external training, colors his personality in the Prophetic light. In many of his writings, Sultan Bahu (RA.) refers to his holy mother, piety and spiritual station. In one of his Persian couplets, he refers to her devotion to truth as follows:
 Mai Rasti (RA) saw a vision she will soon be blessed with a child's spiritual qualities whose light of Faqr will benefit many a seeker to the end of time. She was assigned to the child `Ba Hu name - meaning -` With Allah '. This name, certainly suited this holy personality, for he was always drowned in the Love of God. Hazrat Sultan Bahu's (RA) name is incomparable and has no parallel. His name reflects his lofty spiritual station, pure qualities and attributes. We will be very short, try to explore and further explain the characteristics and quality of the holy name of Bahu. This would help the fallacy and misunderstanding regarding the disposition of the holy name of fire.
Hazrat Sultan Bahu's Family:
The Saint had four wives. The first wife was of the family of Hazrat Makhdoom Bahu (RA), which was one of the "caliphs of the great Sufi Hazrat Sheikh-ul Islam, Sheikh Muhammed Bahauddin Zakarya Multani (RA). His second and third wife of his own tribe and family. His fourth wife belonged to a Hindu family of Multan and was in `niaaz '(marriage) to the saint by Hazrat Sheikh Bahauddin Zakaria (RA). Sultan Bahoo (RA) had all the worldly pleasures in his early years away, but he was obliged to marry more than once, in honor of the "Sunnah" of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The permission for having more than one wife is not based on conditions of lust, nor an advantage that the married man, but on the principle of sacrifice. Consent shall be determined by those able to just go with his wives, even at the formal level is an extremely difficult condition to fulfill, except for those who are well disciplined, to spiritual and moral values ??and above all stick to the marriage perform for spiritual reasons - for the sake of obtaining Devine Pleasure. So in Islam the institution of marriage is a religious issue rather than a worldly matter only and is based on the principle of the interdependence of man and woman in ensuring the fullness of life for each other through mutual affection , mutual trust and mutual protection as husband and wife.
