Bayazid Bostami was a great saint. In his childhood he was a very obedient boy. He was especially obedient to his mother. Once Bayazid was reading o his table. It was dead at night. His mother was in deep sleep. She was also ill. Suddenlly his ailing mother got up from sleep and asked Bayazid to give her a glass of water. Bayazid went to the pitcher. But Unfortunately there was not a drop of water in it. So Bayazid went to a distant fountain with the pitcher and brought water for his mother.But by that time his mother was asleep again. So he stood still beside his mothers bed with a glass of water in his hand.Thus the rest of the night passed by. In the morning his mother woke up. She was highly surprised seeing Bayazid standing with a glass of water beside her bed. But soon she could remember every thing. Her heart was filled with a unique love for Bayazid. Her embraced her son and prayed for him from the core of his heart.
