After the barbarous game of bloodshed in
Neshapur, the vicissitudes of time were
foreseen by the Great Khwaja Moinuddin
Hassan Chishty (R.A.). Just at this time
Khwaja Baba (R.A.) lost his father and
mother at the age of about fifteen. His
father died at Neshapur in the year 552
Hijri. The orphaned Khwaja Baba (R.A.) was
now left all alone to look after himself in
this world filled with hatred, greed and
murder. By virtue of his inheritance, he had
enough property for his maintenance. The
Great Khwaja Moinuddin Hassan Chisty (R.A.)
started trimming and watering the orchard.
But he always felt grief and was constantly
immersed in thoughts of the future.
Hardly had a year passed when the wicked
Tartars again ransacked Khorasan and
re-enacted the drama of bloodshed, murder
arson and loot. The Great Hazrat Khwaja Baba
(R.A.) once again was overwhelmed and
dismayed by the scenes of terrible
devastation. He felt undecided about the
further course of his life.
