He (R.A.) did not partake a single morsel from food (Langer), kept fasts and go to jungle and ate wild berries and leaves. He (R.A.) did his duties for 12 years. He (R.A.) prayed continuously and his abolition was never disrupted. Frequent and continuous fasting and eating leaves and wild food made him weak.

Baba Freed (R.A.) called upon him and asked the reason, Sabir Pak (R.A.) replied “You ordered me to distribute the food and not to partake from it” Baba Fareed (R.A.) embraced him happily and remarked “He is SABIR (Patient)”. From that day forth He became famous with the name of “SABIR”. He spent many years of his life with Baba Fareed (R.A.) and got religious and spiritual aspiration from Baba Fareed (R.A.).
