His guiding power is not just limited to discourse, stories, and fables but it the sign of Murshid-e-Kaamil is this that [He takes the Seeker unto that Station , which is better superior to doing infinite worship]. [This is the sign of identification of the Murshid-e-Kaamil] that he takes one hand in hand unto the Station of the Asylum of Peace [that is, the Majlis of Holy Prophet] like this Verse:

Allah Almighty says: whosoever entered in it [Khana-e-Kaba] is safe (3:97)

[Same as this, through the Initiation (Bai-at) of the Murshid-e-Kaamil , one finds peace and he, by becoming the Master of Peace, becomes the true example of the above Verse].

O Mardak (little man)! You must try that you should reach beyond the Martaba of Mardak and reach the Station of the Mard . Which is the Martaba of the Mardak [and which is the Martaba of the Mard]? The Martaba of the Mardak is this that he always remains battling with the enemies of Allah Almighty, that is, the Nafs and the Satan. On the other hand, the Martaba of the Mard the fighter against infidels is this that he, in a single blow, beheads the Nafs and the Satan [so that] he should become fearless against their warfare [for all times] as Istiqamat is above Karamat and Maqamat (higher Stations). Another mark of the Murshid-e-Kaamil is this that [he, with his Inwardly Tawajuh , should enter his Mureed in the Majlis of-Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam]. Without Hazoori of the Majlis , hundreds of pains and thousands of blights are faced when the Seekers are granted Zikr Azkaar . Since the Murshid-e-Kaamil is the Master of Istaghraaq and the verbal Zikr of the Name is just farness and nothing else but a Hijr and Firaaq but he, who has reached unto the Musamma, what concern he might have with mere Name (Ism)? [That is, the Murshid-e-Kaamil keeps the Seekers lost in the Name-the-Essence (Ism-e-Zaat ) and the Murshid-e-Naqis has no inclination unto the Taste and (efficacious) effectiveness (and the impact) of this Name and this Name-the-Essence (Ism-e-Zaat ) is that, in which the Hijr , Firaaq and farness are gained and Zikr is also the name of this thing in which the Hijr, Firaaq and farness from yours are gained and what link the Naqis (Imperfect) has with this Name and what will he know the nature of the (efficacious) effectiveness (and the impact) of this Name?]

ABOUT ISTIQAMAT AND KARAMAT: Uprightness is called Istiqamat, which implies that the Faqeer should remain safe against unrighteousness and should never allow the taint of Nafs and Satan in him. It also implies that he should never be desirous of anything else besides Allah. That unusual outcome that apparently seems impossible, if that happens by the Aulia-Allah Rahmatu-Allah Ta'ala Alaihim, then it is called Karamat and if such happens by a non believer, then it is called Istadraaj . Since, in Karamat , there is possibility of the taint of the Nafs that is why Istiqamat is above Karamat.
