The Spiritual Path
“As for taking pride in the Tariqah, it is born of foolishness and ignorance of what the tariqah actually is. The spiritual path is built on humility and lowliness, until Allah brings them glory from Himself, and on poverty until He brings them wealth, without any self-regard or pride.”
