Ainul Faqar Ainul Faqr

And after erecting the citadel of these Four-Elements around him, he should sit in the center of the Fort of Worship with the Taufeeq and help of Lord. And he should nullify ignorance in the Tareeqat and grasp Conscientiousness (and observance) and cleverness and should reach at the Station of Haqeeqat flying like a goshawk. And Haqeeqat is [the Station of] Dildari (comfort and relief) and all that is, it is and all that happens, happens through it. O friend! Gasp not on this path [and remain with Perseverance (in righteousness) and gratefulness]. One should believe in 'Good and evil all is from Allah's end'.

The Best in the entire Creations (Khair ul Khalaiq) is Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam and the Evil in the entire Creations is the damned Satan. Whom do you want? And in Marifat is compassion and sadness (Gham Khawari). The more a Seeker an Arif is, the more humble he becomes with the passage of time. And that person, who does not know the realism of these four Stations, he is bull and donkey and ignoramus (unaware) concerning Selk-Salook of Tasawvuf and Faqar.

Amongst the bad things that you see, I am the worst,

I have found Haq in this direst poverty.

Be informed [O Seeker!] In every Station [of Faqar] there is Qabz , Bast and Sukr . In addition, in the Station of Tareeqat is Sukr . May Allah keep us safe against it because its Sukr is not less than the Sukraat (pangs) of death or Marg-e-Mafaajaat (unexpected attack of death)! The Seeker, whether he is tyro, of middle level or master level, immediately sets his step in Tareeqat and identifies his condition and circumstances (Haal Ahwaal ) and sets himself his guard. And even in the state of Masti , he continues the recitation of Darood Shareef. He crosses this Station safely as the Shariyat is the likeness of soul and Tareeqat is likeness of feet and he walks only when intention is of traveling and sightseeing. Tareeqat is called the Tareeq (way of following) the Path and this whole path cannot be traveled without water. If the wayfarer does not get a draught (sip) of water, he may die. Say Shariyat is like a boat, Tareeqat is like River and it is as if the boat is in the Great Flood of Hazrat Nooh (Noah) Alaihis-Salaam. It is surrounded from all sides by splashes of waves in violent Tempest.
