Vision of spiritual guide as first sight
After birth Sultan Mohammad Abdul Aziz did not open his eyes until the seventh day. His father worriedly took him to the shrine of Sultan Bahoo. At that time Sultan Pir Sayyid Mohammad Bahadur Ali Shah was coincidently present there. Sultan Fateh Mohammad requested Pir Bahadur Ali to bless his son so that he would open his eyes. As soon as he (Pir Bahadur Ali Shah) held the baby in his lap, the baby opened the eyes. In this way, his first view was his spiritual guide’s countenance.
