have not opten faith rather you say that we have subdued (to Islam) while the faith (imaan) has not yet
made an entry into your hearts (Surah, Al Hujarat, Ch: 2). This verse clearly indicates that there ought to
be (some one) to induct Imam into the hearts. Who can it be but a perfected sage? And in the phrase
’Ittequllah’(i.e. Fear Allah) has all do it and do nots inclusive, The question arises whether Muslims in
general are not god-fearing people? But to be god-fearing as apparently is something different. The god-
fearing spirit, apparent as well as the intiminsic as imported by a perfected saint is something else. It is
said by the Almighty: “The phrase of god-fearing (i.e.Taquwa) was made upon them abligatory and as a
matter of a fact they were entitled to it and well deserved, (Surah Al Fateh, Ch: 3) It means, there is a hint
towards a leader carring “Kalima” and a guide to it. And Verse: Seek towards him a Waseela” Denotes the
practices of Ba’et at the hand of a perfected saint. If Quran and Hadeeth, Namaaz, fasting and the
apparent god-fearing nature were acceptable as Waseela unto the threshold of the Divine power, than why
Allah the Almighty chose to reveal such a verse? And the Divine order is: “O belivers obey the orders of
Allah and obey the messenger and those who are at the helm of affairs- “(Surah AL-Nissae-chapter-8) It is
narrated in a Hadeeth as the Revered Master, peace Be Upon Him, has said: “One who obeyed the
commands of my Emir (i.e. the chief) he actually has obeyed me and who obeyed me has in fact obeyed
Allah.” (Bukhari and Muslim)—and the term Emir Actually cannotes to these who are ruling and
commanding heart of the believers, having access to, Allah viz-the perfected saints and the term ‘Jastajoo’
denotes the penance and struggling against the self. With the term “Sabeelehi’ is a meaning is to achieve
the goal of the divinely enlightenment. This means that one should undertake Ba’et of a perfected saint and
as per orders of the spiritual guide he should get engrossed with perance and struggling in order to achieve
the goal of enlightenments so as to be blessed with sighting of the Divine being which is really an enternal
success. Hence any person who denies undertaking of Ba’et with a spiritual guide is truly a denier of the
Sunnah of the messenger. And the phrase- “La ‘allakum Tuflaheen,” i.e. So that you should emerge
successful –it means: O Muslims apparents, if you wish to become ‘Muttaqui’ (i.e.god-fearing , person) you
cannot go for pursuing the Shariyat alone, you come into the Tareeqat, adopt Taqwa apparent and hidden
as well as piety by rendering services to the spiritual guide in Tareeqat and recognize your Cherisher
through the tenet of : “One who identified himself has actually identified his Cherisher get conversant with
your Deity and through struggle and meditation have access to (the stages of) getting perished in the
spiritual guide, getting lost in the Messenger, and getting swayed in the entity of Allah-and emerge from
peril to the welfare of the worlds, meaning be firmly rooted in the virtuous remains.
O dear! Remember, even if you should practice in full and perfect on the great shariyah, you
cannot achieve the glimpse of Allah. And even if you should adopt to piety and god-fearing sprit through
getting discliplined, whole of your life, to the sanctity of the Shariyat, passing your life becoming an
eternally dedicated t the Namaaz and fastings day in and day out, you cannot receive Haqq-al-
Yaqueen(i.e. the rightful belief) about your’s happy ending and divinely forgiveness. And without a
perfected saint no person can become a Vali, Qutub and Abdaal. These Auliya Allahs happen to be a
nation of the intrinisic rulers. In the Muslims Ummat of Mohammed (PBHU) there remain in every given
time as many as fourty vali Allahs assigned work of the reformists of the ummah are called the “Najabaa,
“And there are three hundreds VaIi Allah assigned works to moniter the intrinsic conditions of the Ummah,
are called “Naquabaa”. And there are in all four directions, four Valis assigned the work of security are
