Meaning: Bahoo's mother named him Bahoo because Bahoo has always remained with hoo (zikar).
Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh was a Wali-Allah by birth. He remained engrossed in heavenly experiences and triumphed in the doubtless from an early age. Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh gained his early esoteric and spiritual education from his mother. A non muslim would immediately recite Kalma and accept Islam if his eyes fell on the divine face of Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh, such was the intensity of the divine radiance upon him.
He states in his books "I searched for a mentor (murshid) for thirty years but in vain". It was because he already held such elevated heights of Faqr where access to one is extremely arduous. Therefore Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh relates one of his revelations in his book that one day, engrossed in Allah's Vision, he was wondering in the surroundings of Shorkot when Hazrat Ali Bin Abu Talib Karum Allah Wajhul Kareem came and took him to the esteemed Assembly of Hazrat Mohammad Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam where the four Pious Caliphs Razi Allah Anhum, Family (Ahl-e-Bait) of Prophet Mohammad Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam and Hazrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jillani Razi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu were also present. There Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo swore allegiance at the sacred hands of Prophet Mohammad Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam and then He Sall'Allahu Alayhi Wa'alihi Wasallam entrusted Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh to Hazrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jillani Razi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu for further spiritual guidance. That is why Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo always refers Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jillani Razi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu as his Murshid in his books. He says that when Ghaus-ul-Azam blessed me spiritually, I surpassed all the spiritual levels from eternal beginning till eternal end. Afterwards, on the orders of Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jillani Razi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu, he took an oath of allegiance at the hands of Shaikh Pir Abdul Rehman Jillani Dehlwi Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh who entrusted the treasure of Faqr to Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo Rehmat-ul-Allah Alayh in just one meeting.Thank you
