    STATIONS OF TARIQAT

    Tariqat is the pathway to Allah. To travel on this path the successful Mureed is required
    to adorn and adopt certain qualities/stations. Tariqat also comprises of 10 stations.

    These are as follows:

    First Station: Repentance


    The first station is Tauba (repentance) which requires the seeker to keep turning to his
    Lord (Allah) for forgiveness of the sins and acts of transgression (Khata, Khalafwarzi
    karna qanoon ki).
    ‫پہال سٹیشن توبہ کرنے کی ضرورت ہوتی ہے کہ وہ اپنے گناہوں کی بخشش‬
    ‫اور مجرمانہ عمل کے لۓ اپنے رب کی طرف رخ کرے‬
    Second Station: Virtue
    Next to Tauba are the acts of virtue and piety (Taqveat). The soul of which is good
    conduct and morality embracing all praise-worthy practices and attributes, because
    goodness of conduct and morality magnifies the virtues and good deeds.
    ‫ جس کی روح اچھی طرز‬.)‫تاوبا فضیلت اور تقویت کے اعمال ہیں (تقویت‬
    ‫ وہ تمام قابل تعریف عمل اور‬،‫عمل اور اخالقیات کی تعریف کرتا ہے‬
    ‫ کیونکہ اخالق اور اخالقیات کی خوبی فضیلت اور‬،‫صفتوں کو پورا کرتی ہے‬
    .‫نیک عملوں میں اضافہ کرتی ہے‬

    Third Station: Endearment (Lagaaoo, piar)


    Following virtue is Mujahida (endeavour), Taqwa (Fear of Allah) and Piety. These are
    the traits which endear the devout Mureed to the holy Prophet (s.a.w). It is an
    established fact that the man who endeavoured and improved his standing with Allah
    and His Prophet (s.a.w) set himself on the path of righteousness. He who failed, in this
    respect, remained roaming in the wilderness of despair without vision and hope.

    Fourth Station: Fear & Hope


    Apprehensiveness and optimism generate fear and hope. Fear and hope are
    interconnected and together they protect the seeker from despair of Allah's Mercy and
    resolve against falling indifferent to the fear of Allah.

    Fifth Station:
    Renunciation of Sensual Desire Renounce and abandon all sensual desires stemming
    from sexual urges, longings and cravings of mundane nature. The pursuit of these
    blackens and hardens the heart.

    Sixth Station: Safeguard


    Abstain from using anything that causes you doubts and suspicions. These include
    food, clothing and wealth in which the line of distinction with regard to Halal and Haram
    cannot be drawn. Regarding this, a serious, strict and scrupulous stance should be
    taken to avoid everything doubtful.
    Seventh Station: Dedication
    To devote, meditate and supplicate before almighty Allah with tearful eyes. Turning to
    Him in repentance and asking for His forgiveness of all sins with humility,
    submissiveness and self-negation. This should entail sincerity of heart and earnest
    desire for seeking shelter in Allah from the sinister designs and manoeuvrings of
    Shaitan (Satan).

    Eighth Station: Appeasement


    Win the pleasure and satisfaction of your Murshid in every matter. This state, of
    Murshid's satisfaction and pleasure, can be achieved by virtue of obeying him in word
    and deed without wavering of mind or sceptism.

    Ninth Station: Pleasant Focus


    Give patient ear for listening to the sermon delivered by one's Murshid. Aiming thereby
    to act upon the advice administered. When the Mureed goes out for this purpose, it is
    important to exercise the utmost courtesy, cheerfulness, amiability, politeness and
    chastity.

    Tenth Station: Reliance


    Forsake everything save Allah Almighty. This state calls for the heart to completely
    disengage from all the reliance of creation because indulging in them harms the
    proximity and nearness to God and erects an impenetrable curtain before his eyes.
