From there he saw a large group of people returning from the Arafat Mountain, after performing Haj. Bewildered, Abdul Qadir went to his mother and asked her permission to make a journey to Baghdad to pursue a career in knowledge. His mother heard the divine call and promptly gave permission to Abdul Qadir to go. She gave him forty gold coins, which was his share of inheritance from his father, and stitched them inside the lining of his coat.

He recognized the need to give something to his son so that he can take care of himself and his family to be. One day, he called his son to his room and said-“My son, you are no more a kid now. You must learn to take responsibilities and understand life.” “I want you to find the real purpose of your life and when you find it remember it always and you will lead a life full of happiness and joy.” Then he handed his son a bag. When the son opened the bag, he was

Rising in the state of Uttarakhand in the Himalayas, it commences its 2,525 km (1,569 mi) journey eventually reaching the Bay of Bengal, flowing south and east, traversing the Gangetic Plain of North India, moving into Bangladesh, and eventually emptying into the Bay of Bengal. Being the most sacred river to the Hindus, the Ganga is also a lifeline to millions of Indians who live along its course. Worshipped as the goddess Ganga in Hinduism, the river has been important historically too, with many former imperial capital cities such as Pataliputra, Kannauj, Kashi, Patna, Hajipur, Munger, Bhagalpur, Murshidabad, Baharampur, Kampilya, and Kolkata located on its banks. Even today, the Ganges continues to serve the many that depend on it for their daily needs. Himalayan rivers are perennial as they are fed by melting sn
