Sorry hazrat.. Bad bad bad experiences with spoons.

I think it depends more on how the khuddaam are.. some are nice.. whereas others may be strict.. I think its good that khuddaam surround a Shaykh and care for his comfort.. I attended a few friday sermons of Mufti Taqi Usmani and since Hazrat did not had any khuddaamz, he got immensely surrounded by the crowd.. all wanting to do a musahf-hah (shake hand) with shaykh.. though i usually dislike when any khuddaamz hinder me from meeting any shaykh but here i felt that it would have been good if Mufti sahib would have had khuddaam with him.. They would have not let this happen.. Then in the end. Mufti sahib had to repel the crowd by saying Takbeer to start Tahiyyat-ul-Masjid Salaah!
