The Perfect Spiritual Guide

Divine teachings for spiritual enlightenment

Status of Fakir

In the Sarwari Qadri order when the seeker annihilates himself in Hoo (ھُو) and there remains nothing in his esoteric and exoteric being except Hoo then he reaches the status of Hama Aust dr maghz o poast meaning "Only the Divine Essence is manifested in the physical and spiritual being." This represents the status of Fakir who is the master of universe (the Universal Divine Man) and the perfect spiritual guide possessing the light of Divine guidance.

Essence of Ism-e-Allah Zaat

The perfect spiritual guide is the essence and reality of Ism-e-Allah Zaat.

Intermediator

The perfect spiritual guide is the intermediator between seeker and Allah Almighty. The perfect spiritual guide must lead the seeker towards Allah's proximity. Searching for such a spiritual guide and then attaining the reality of life through him is a fundamental obligation, as this makes a person cognizant of his status in the hereafter.

Futile Efforts

Efforts to reach Allah without a perfect spiritual guide are futile.

Quranic Knowledge

The true teachings and knowledge of the Holy Quran cannot be fully grasped without the guidance of perfect spiritual guide. It is the spiritual guide who, according to the capabilities of the seeker, guides him towards Divine proximity shielding from the snares of Satan and deceptions of the self. Common people are not even aware of this knowledge, how can they have command upon it!

Love for Guide

Only those achieve success in Faqr who cultivate a deep love for the spiritual guide and remain restless for his vision and companionship.

Recognition

Every seeker or disciple does not have the ability to recognize the perfect spiritual guide who is annihilated in Allah, immortal with Him and possesses the light of guidance. This is because every seeker or disciple does not truly seek Allah. Many are the seekers of the world or the hereafter.

Purification

The primary duty of a perfect spiritual guide is to purify the self of a seeker.

Path Opener

The spiritual guide not only opens the path of Divine proximity for disciples but also makes it easy, for he is the guide, leader and mentor of this path. Only those can recognize the reality of spiritual guide who have set out on the journey with pure intention to seek Allah.

Beyond Intellect

Common people cannot recognize him, firstly because they are not pure in their desire for Allah, secondly because outwardly he appears to be an ordinary human like them. It is impossible for the seekers of world and hereafter to recognize his reality with their limited intellect since he apparently lives like common people.

Essential Guidance

In the path of Faqr, the guidance of perfect spiritual guide is essential. However, the seeker should be cautious of the imposter guides. Those who embark on this journey with a sincere desire to seek Allah are shielded and protected from such imposters, for the One being sought becomes their guardian and protector.
