People started gathering around him in groups, and gradually in thousands. They accepted his leadership.  Every Wednesday night, he used to give his addresses at a local open space, and people from all walks of life thronged to him. They would listen to him spellbound and correct themselves as he directed and prescribed. But the assembly gradually grew unmanageable. The open space had to be widened, and additional space was provided to accommodate the tens of thousands of his audience and disciples. A large guest house was built for visitors.

Abdul Qadir Al-Jilani is one of those scholars and geniuses who came to this earth to give light to humanity and guide them to the true path. He practiced Islam and conveyed its message to all Muslims after having himself drunk deeply from the hearts of humanity. The place where he lived and chose for the spread of his message has become one of the blessed lands on this earth, and has since been turned into a holy Centre of visits by his followers and well-wishers.

The Prophet (SAW) has exhorted us to fast during certain days: six days of Shawwal, the Day of Arafat, the day of Ashura, most of the month of Sha’ban, Monday and Thursday, three days of every month, and the fasting of Prophet Dawud.
