Hazrat Maulana Muhammad Qasim Sahib Nanotvi (R.A) had a devotee who was a Thanedar (police station chief) in Muzaffarnagar. One day, he invited Hazrat Maulana Nanotvi to a feast. Maulana observed that the Thanedar's earnings were doubtful and suspicious, which is why he declined the invitation. When the Thanedar asked for the reason for not accepting the invitation, Hazrat said, "I am constrained (excused)." He said, "If you are ill, I will arrange for your medical treatment." Hazrat replied, "No, there is some other excuse." He said, "If traveling is difficult, I will arrange a ride." Hazrat said, "This is not the compulsion, rather it is another excuse." He requested again, "Shall I send the food to your place?" You declined. He submitted, "I will personally come and present the food." Hazrat flatly refused. The Thanedar suddenly flew into a rage and said, "You are neither a spiritual elder (Buzurg) nor righteous, because the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'Accept invitations', and you are not accepting it." Upon this, Maulana Nanotvi replied, "I am guilty of and deserve even more faults than the ones you have mentioned." At that moment, the Thanedar came to his senses. He pondered and realized that Hazrat was rejecting his invitation due to his wealth being doubtful. He resigned from his post as a Thanedar that very day. After a few days, he invited him again and submitted, "Hazrat! Now I am inviting you with the lawful (Halal) income from my own property." Maulana Muhammad Qasim Sahib accepted the invitation and said to him, "Do a job, but work with honesty, because being a Thanedar with honesty is greater than all virtues, as a Thanedar holds the position of an accountability officer (Muhtasib)." ___________📝📝___________ Narrated.
