Aqal Baidar

It is this that the Murshid should first drown the Seeker in the Tasarruf of the carrion Dunya (World), so that he should become like a dead body. After this, he should give him Bath (Ghusal) to purify him and take him unto the Marifat and Didaar of Lord. That Murshid, who does not have this Taufeeq , he certainly is unfamiliar with the Course of Faqar . The Murshid should be the knot opener. When the knot of the Seeker has been untied and his Credence (Eitiqaad ) has become Correct, then all the Mataalib that the Seeker has, the Murshid accomplishes them in a trice. Yes! The Murshid certainly grants a new ability to the Seeker every next day for satisfaction of his heart so that the Seeker should not lose Credence.

ABYAAT (COUPLETS)

Go at the threshold of the Murshid every dawn and dusk,

So that you should get all your Mataalib accomplished,

Even if your Murshid hits you on your head, keep your head bowed before him,

Moreover, whatever you possess, give to the Murshid,

With the Grace and Favor of Allah, the Murshid grants the treasure,

Which give the Wahdat of Allah to the Seekers.

The Murshid should have virtues like a goshawk. These Naqis Murshideen (Imperfect Guides) are the People of Bidat . They are likeness of kites. You should face unto the goshawk.

HADIS

(Saying of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam)

Take that which is clean and leave that which is unclean.

SHARAH

Heart, Qalb , Ruh , Nafs , Satan and Sirr all are joined inside the human body same as blood is united with Damm and life. Thus, is found that the body of the human being is like milk - same as the Chaach , curd, butter, and Ghee all are present inside milk.

Chaach: A sore drink made from curd by mixing water in it and stirring it long time with good speed. Chaach is left when butter is skimmed out of this juice. People of villages drink it adding some table salt in it.

Ghee: Fats obtained from butter. Clarified butter which is obtained after heating it and decanting. It looks like hydrogenated oil. In other words, it is of animal origin (milk) as compared to Banaspati Ghee (Hydrogenated Oil) which is of plant origin.
