Computational Skill
On another occasion, Shaykh Muĥammad Kichauchawī[1] who usually handled fatāwā related to inheritance, had to calculate the shares of fifteen branches (and their descendants) in the family tree. He took a whole day to compile his answer and came to Alahazrat for verification. The question was read out to Alahazrat that fifteen members of a line had all died leaving behind a number of descendants, whose names were read out. No sooner had Shaykh Muĥammad finished reading the question and listed the names, Alahazrat began to pronounce the shares: A gets so much, B gets so much, and so forth effectively verifying Shaykh Muĥammad’s answer.
