Two men: Habib Sehan & Habib Abu Bakar are among those whom are called “saint majdub” (saint madzdub/jadab/dzadab). They are highly respected even more than regular religious mollah/teachers/preachers.
The idea of “majdub”: they so love the Lord and then Lord pulls them to Him, and be into the current state. The mind is “removed”, the love keeps staying.
“The mind is removed?” Many people believe saint majdub’s minds have upgraded into the next level that regular people cannot comprehend.
The root of why certain people / educated Muslims don’t call the majdub as “crazy people” is because of Prophet Muhammad’s teachings.
One day the Prophet’s companions were to go to Yemen (from Medina), they were given message by the Prophet to send his regards to Uwais Al Qarni (he never met the Prophet till his death) whose surrounding people thought he was just a “crazy guy”.
Among Uwais’ peculiar behaviours is: carry a goat on his back while going up to the peak of the hill. What was on his mind? After asked why, he said: he was in rehearsal for he had a goal to go pilgrim with his mother and carry his mother on his back.
And by the blessing of Prophet Muhammad’s words of grace on “crazy people”, Uwais became an honorable figure AKA “Saint” before Muslims’ eyes back then till nowadays. And all people with similarity as Uwais are respected by Muslims.
They are definitely not criminal, only “different” from regular people. They have “clean” history: as pious person, intelligent, caring, loving, blessing to their surrounding and other specialities.
When they were undergoing “instable state of mind” and then becoming a completely new, different characters (completely quiet, strange, wearing new cloths etc.), people keep on respecting them, even more intense.
Saint Majdubs are different from “crazy people” on streets (no offense on them, I personally don’t even dare to call them “crazy”). That’s because saint majdubs have noble track records. They also have “karomah” (=kinda miracle among prophets).
“Saints” and “karomah” is one package with countless folklores. Miracle happens all the time. For prophets, for non prophets.
