جناب اے ۔ اے ۔ اے فیضی
گزشہ مہینہ بمبئی کے جناب اے۔ اے۔ اے فیضی کی وفات ہوگئی، وہ ۱۹۱۹ء سے دارالمصنفین کے لائف ممبر تھے، اپنی نظروفکر میں جدید کاری اور ترقی پسندی کے باوجود آخر وقت تک علامہ شبلیؒ، مولانا سید سلیمان ندویؒ، دارالمصنفین اور معارف کے بڑے قدردان رہے، بمبئی جب جانے کا اتفاق ہوا تو وہ ایک شفیق بزرگ ہی کی طرح ملے، ان کے مذہبی اور فقہی خیالات کا احتساب تو وہاں ہوگا جہاں اب دائمی طور پر پہنچ گئے ہیں، مگر ان میں بعض شریفانہ خوبیاں تھیں جن کو ان کے معاصر دوست اور ملنے والے مدتوں یاد کریں گے، دعا ہے کہ اﷲ تعالیٰ کی بارگاہ میں ان کی کوئی ادا پسند آجائے جس سے ان کی مغفرت کا سامان ہوجائے، آمین۔ (صباح الدین عبدالرحمن، نومبر ۱۹۸۱ء)
Shah ʿAbdul Latīf Bhitāī's Kalām (Risāla) is the interpretation of Sharīʿah and Taṣawwuf. Then parables and metaphors are used, but in essence, the whole Risāla is based on the teachings of Ṣūfīsm. Allāh has given acceptance to this Risāla. Many interpretations and explanations of Shāh's Risāla have been written. This article is based on the introduction of an outspoken, commentator who interpreted Shāh Sāḥib's Kalām in the light of Sharīʿah and Ṣūfīsm. It was an important task of its kind. He was not certified scholar or peer or mentor to carry out this work, but he was a headman and land lord. Allāh took this unique work from his pen. The name of this saint is Ḥajī Rasūl Bakhsh Dero. This interpretation of Shāh's Kalām is the one of the biggest argument for this saint's good faith, Sincerity and honesty.
