Book Name:Ala Hazrat Ka Tasawuf

by saying, ‘When Allah Almighty asks me on the Day of Judgement: ‘O Aal-e-Rasool! What have you brought?’ I will present my Mureed, Ahmad Raza Khan.’

From the aforementioned account, we learn that if a murshid favours his Mureed, we should never feel envious towards our brother in Tareeqah. A murshid can favour his Mureed in many ways, for example, if there is a Mureed who agrees to every statement of his murshid, rather, not only who agrees to his statements, but someone who sincerely accepts his statements with utmost love and devotion, and acts upon it, then undoubtedly, the murshid will also be pleased with him. The Mureed will be showered with bestowals and gifts by the murshid, therefore, we should never envy such a person, otherwise, we will have to face the consequences of this. Just as Imam Abdul Wahhab Sha’rani رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه states: It is necessary upon a Mureed, that when his murshid advances one of his brothers in Tareeqah (or grants him a rank), out of respect for his murshid, he should serve (and obey) his brother in Tareeqah, and he should never be envious of him. However, if a Mureed wishes to surpass his brothers in Tareeqah, he ought to obey his murshid and adorn himself with such attributes that make him rightful of advancement. At that that time, his murshid will allow him to move beyond his brothers in Tareeqah, for the murshid is the judge over his Mureeds and is just towards them, but it is very rare that a Mureed is protected from this disease of assuming this role.    (Al-Noor-ul-Qaadisiyah, p. 29)
