Answer
Once a pious person was on a journey to Makkah and walked through the desert for three days. On the fourth day, owing to extreme thirst - as he saw death - he sat down facing the Qiblah.
As he sat there, sleep overtook him and in a dream he saw a man coming towards him with his hands stretched out to him saying, 'Here take my hand.' Then he spoke, 'I have come to give you glad tidings; you shall perform Hajj and return home safe and sound, and you shall also visit the grave of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam).'
The sheikh said, 'Who are you?' He replied, 'I am Khidhr.' The Shaykh said, 'Pray for me.' Hadhrat Khidhr advised, 'Recite these words thrice, 'Yaa lateefan bi khalqihi. Yaa 'aleeman bikhaliqihi. Yaa khabeeran bikhalqihi. Ultuf biy yaa lateef, yaa 'aleem yaa khabeer.' ()
When the Shaykh heard this, he woke up and saw someone on a camel. Then he made Hajj.
The Shaykh says whenever he met any distress or difficulty, he recited the Du'aa taught by Hadhrat Khidhr (Alayhis salaam). It proved to be very beneficial and for all this he is most grateful to Allah. (Virtues of Hajj; Hadhrat Shaykh Zakariyyah, edited)
