Wa alaykum salam,

Fana fillah is obviously legitimate. So is fana fil rasul salallahu alayhi wasalam as Allah's pleasure lies in obedience to his Messenger.

But fana fish shaykh? If the kalima is la ilah ilallah, then why are the shaykhs so elevated? They are not infallible.

RasulAllah Sallalahu Alaihe Wasalam has said that scholars are inheritors of the Prophet. Therefore scholars must have some status with Allah.

Mujaddid Alf Thani RA said that the true inheritor is one that has knowledge of both the external sharia/fiqh and tasawuf.
