Andhi Burhiya Ka Qissa - اندھی بُڑھیا -قصہِ عبرت
سیدنا عمر اور ابوبکر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہم کے درمیان پیش آنے والے اس واقعہ میں، جو لوگ غور و فکر اور تدبر کرنا چاہتے ہوں، اُن کی عبرت کے لئے بہت سی باتیں پوشیدہ ہیں۔
ابن القیم رحمۃ اللہ علیہ اپنی کتاب (روضۃ المُحبین و نزھۃ المشتاقین) میں لکھتے ہیں کہ عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ روزانہ صبح کی نماز کے بعد سیدنا ابو بکر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ کو غائب پاتے۔ وہ دیکھ رہے تھے کہ ابوبکر رضی اللہ عنہ نماز کی ادائیگی کیلئے تو باقاعدگی سے مسجد میں آتے ہیں مگر جونہی نماز ختم ہوئی وہ چپکے سے مدینہ کے مضافاتی علاقوں میں ایک دیہات کی طرف نکل جاتے ہیں۔ کئی بار ارادہ بھی کیا کہ سبب پوچھ لیں مگر ایسا نہ کر سکے ۔
ایک بار وہ چپکے سے حضرت ابوبکر رضی اللہ عنہ کے پیچھے چل دیئے۔ سیدنا ابو بکر رضی اللہ عنہ دیہات میں جا کر ایک خیمے کے اندر چلے گئے۔ کافی دیر کے بعد جب وہ باہر نکل کر واپس مدینے کی طرف لوٹ چکے تو حضرت عمر رضی اللہ عنہ اُس خیمے میں داخل ہوئے، کیا دیکھتے ہیں کہ خیمے میں ایک اندھی بُڑھیا دو چھوٹے چھوٹے بچوں کے ساتھ بیٹھی ہوئی ہے۔ حضرت عمر رضی اللہ عنہ نے بڑھیا سے پوچھا؛ اے اللہ کی بندی، تم کون ہو؟
بڑھیا نے جواب دیا؛ میں ایک نابینا اور مفلس و نادار عورت ہوں، ہمارے والدین ہمیں اس حال میں چھوڑ کر فوت ہو گئے ہیں کہ میرا اور ان دو لڑکیوں کا اللہ کے سوا کوئی اور آسرا نہیں ہے۔
حضرت عمر رضی اللہ عنہ نے پھر سوال کیا؛ یہ شیخ کون ہے جو تمہارا گھر میں آتا ہے؟
بوڑھی عورت (جو کہ حضرت ابوبکر رضی اللہ عنہ کی اصلیت نہیں جانتی تھی) نے جواب دیا کہ میں اس شیخ کو جانتی تو نہیں مگر یہ روزانہ ہمارے گھر میں آکر جھاڑو دیتا ہے، ہمارے لئیے کھانا بناتا ہے اور ہماری بکریوں کا دودھ دوہ کر ہمارے لئیے رکھتا اور چلا جاتا ہے۔
حضرت عمر یہ سُن کر رو پڑے اور کہا؛ اے ابو بکر، تو نے اپنے بعد کے آنے والے حکمرانوں کیلئے ایک تھکا دینے والا امتحان

Useful Locations while Travelling to Makkah from Riyadh (Updated)
Originally Posted on Monday, 17 June, 2013:

If you plan to take rest or spend a night in Taif then you can find a room in several Hotels present on below mentioned location. The last time I drove to Makkah, I went straight to this hotel and spent a night there and left for Makkah in the morning. This is also useful in the month of Ramadan as Makkah is very crowded and the hotel prices are very high.
Update(28-8-2014): Some people suggest not to go to Makkah from Taif via Al Hada mountain route as it’s a dangerous road, to get an idea about the route you can have a look at the following video:
From 20140803-0731 - Al Shadda Mountain, Wadi Al Hiqa, Khira Forest Park, Taif, Al Shafa Mountain, Jabal
1. Al Mohub Al Shika Al Mafrusha
Coordinates: 21.320011,40.433013
Google Maps: http://goo.gl/maps/1oVXQ
It is near Al Nadi Mafroosha. The rate varies from SR 100 to SR 200 depending on the season. In Ramadan 2015 they were charging SR200/night.
2. Al Ndi Mafroosha

Google Maps: http://goo.gl/maps/1oVXQ
It is near Al Mohub Al Shika Al Mafrusha. I visited it in Ramadan of 2015 and it cost me SR 150 for 1 night whereas all other Mafrooshas around were asking for SR 200.
3. Asturut Taif Mafroshe (Near Al Baik)

The rate we got in Ramadan of 2013 for a double bedroom was SR 150, it varies from SR 120 to SR 250 depending on the season.
In visited it in March 2015 and they were charging SR 200 for the double bedroom and SR 350 for 2 bedroom apartment per night.
2. Al Baik, Taif
If you want to visit Al Baik in Taif then it is inside the Taif Heart Mall. The mall has a big tower just next to it thus it is visible from quite a distance.
