O Believers, we owe endless thankfulness and gratitude to our Lord Allah SWT.

Why are they going on that way? They are running after it because their egos are enjoying that way.

You burn up and what's left isn't you.

Mahamat, along a path.

Tariqat, to the goal of union with reality.

Fana fi al-haqq.

should he venture to make a map of this interior ascent it will not correspond exactly with any of those made by previous explorers such maps or scales of perfection were elaborated by sufi teachers at an early period and the unlucky moslem habit of systematizing has produced an enormous after crop the path expounded by the author of the Kitab al-Lumah, perhaps the oldest comprehensive treatise on Sufism that we now possess, consists of the following seven stages, each of which, except the first member of the series, is the result of the stages immediately preceding it.
