In Sufism, a Script error: No such module "lang". (Arabic Script error: No such module "Lang". 'one who seeks') is a novice committed to spiritual enlightenment by Script error: No such module "lang". (traversing a path) under a spiritual guide, who may take the title Script error: No such module "lang"., Script error: No such module "lang". or Script error: No such module "lang".. A Script error: No such module "lang". or Sufi follower only becomes a Script error: No such module "lang". when he makes a pledge (Script error: No such module "lang".) to a Script error: No such module "lang".. The equivalent Persian term is Script error: No such module "lang"..[1]

The initiation process of a Script error: No such module "lang". is known as Script error: No such module "lang". (Template:Langx) or Script error: No such module "lang".. Before initiation, a Script error: No such module "lang". is instructed by his guide, who must first accept the initiate as his disciple. Throughout the instruction period, the Script error: No such module "lang". typically experiences waridates like visions and dreams during personal spiritual awrads and exercises. These visions are interpreted by the Script error: No such module "lang".. A common practice among the early Sufi orders was to grant a Script error: No such module "lang". or a robe to the Script error: No such module "lang". upon the initiation or after he had progressed through a series of increasingly difficult and significant tasks on the path of mystical development until attaining Script error: No such module "lang". stage.

Practice

This practice is not very common now.[when?] Murīds often receive books of instruction from Script error: No such module "lang". and often accompany itinerant Script error: No such module "lang". on their wanderings.[2] A fundamental practice involves teaching the mûrîd (Arabic: موريد "the disciple") an array of seven "names".

  1. The first one consists in repeating lâ ilâha ilal 'llâhu (Arabic: لا إله إلا الله "there is no god except God") between 12,000 and 70,000 times in a day and night. If the mûršîd (Arabic: مُرشِد "the spiritual guide") is satisfied with the mûrîd's progress, then the mûrîd is allowed to continue with the six remaining names:
  2. Allâh (Arabic: الله "God") three times;
  3. huwa (Arabic: هو "He is"),
  4. ḥaqq (Arabic: الحق "The Absolute Truth") three times;
  5. ḥayy (Arabic: الحى "The Ever- Living) three times;
  6. qayyûm (Arabic: القيوم "The Sustainer, The Self Subsisting") three times;
  7. qahhâr (Arabic: القهار "The Ever-Dominating").[3]
