Pupils story Shaykh Junaid al-Baghdadi

Shaykh Junaid al-Baghdadi is a prominent Sufi figures large. He had a disciple who was very dear to the causes santri Junaid others envy. Deep down, they can not accept why the teachers pay special attention to the child. 

One time, Sheikh Junaid told all his students to buy chicken at the market and then slaughtered. But Junaid gave the condition that they should slaughter the chicken in a place where no one can see them on the condition before sunset, they must be able to complete the task. 


One by one the students back to the front of Junaid, all carrying chickens have slain except the beloved disciple of Junaid. Finally when the sun sets, a new young disciple comes with a live chicken. Santri other students laughed at him and said that it had failed to carry out orders very easy Sheikh. 


Junaid then asked each students to tell how they carry out their duties. 


Pupils first said that he had gone to buy a chicken, brought it home, and then lock the doors, close all windows, and kill the chicken. Two students told me that he brought home a chicken, lock the house, shut the windows, bring the chicken into a dark bathroom, and kill it there. 


Third of students said that he brought the chicken into a dark room but he also closed his own eyes. With that, he fikir, no one can see the chicken slaughter. Other students who went to the dense forest and remote, then cut the chicken. While the other students who are looking for a very dark cave and kill the chickens in there. 


Came the turn of the young students who do not succeed Junaid favorite cut of chicken. While down embarrassed because they feel unable to execute the command of the teacher. He also recalled: 


"I brought the chicken to my house. But in my house there is no place where He (God) did not see me. I went to a dense forest, but he is still with me. Even in the midst of a very dark cave, he is still with me. Though I can not go to a place where no one sees me. " 


The disciples of Sheikh Junaid others were stunned.
