Abdul-Qadir Gilani (Wiki) - "His father was Abu Salih Musa al-Hasani, a descendant of Hazrat Imam Hasan, the eldest son of Ali, Muhammad's first cousin, and the husband of Fatima, Muhammad's daughter. Al-Gilani's mother was the daughter of Abdullah Sawmai, a descendant of Imam Husain, the younger son of Ali and Fatima. Thus, Al-Gilani was both a Hasani and Hussaini Sayyid."
Abdul-Qadir Jilani (Sufi Wiki) - "His contribution to Sufism and Sharia was so immense that he became known as the spiritual pole of his time, al-Ghawth al-A'zam."
Shaikh Abdul-Qadir al-Jilani (Al-Baz) - "Step out of your own self and keep your distance from it. Practice detachment from your possessiveness, and surrender everything to Allah." - 7th Discourse from Futuh al-Ghaib
