Astaghfirullah Bhai....I can,t say about others,but at least I am not one of those 'High calibre ' buzargan!

Bhai,to me this highlights one very important 'usool'....." That every one on the path of sulook needs mujahida,in addition to ZIKRE" .Lately it has been the prevailing practice to depend solely on ZIKRE.Hazrat Hakim ul ummat RA has pointed it out in several Of his malfoozat and khutbat....that we need 'Mujahida' as much as ZIKRE to achieve the objectives of sulook.Depending 'only' on ZIKRE may not work.

Now mujahida is different for different people.You were lucky Allah swt directed you to a form of mujahida which best suited you.Every one might not be that lucky....and therefore this responsibility lies on the shoulders of a Shaikh to find a mujahida best suited to a particular salik.

Mujahida can be IJMALI or TAFSEELI:

IJMALI mujahida:

1) Eating less
2) Sleeping less
3) talking less
4) Less interaction with people.

TAFSEELI MUJAHIDA:

taking each bad attribute one by one and try to remove them from self.....and then taking good attributes one by one and try to make them a permanent part of the self.

Initially these attributes are temporarily removed/ gained,which is called 'Haal'....later with constant effort,they become a part of our psyche,and is then called a "muqam".Tassawuf is all about gaining these muqamat.(The relevant details are present in the book "Shariat o tareeqat" by Ml Ashraf Ali Thanvi RA)

Alhamdolillah,through you a very important lesson is being reminded to us once again.May Allah swt give you 'Istiqama',keep you under HIS protection from all the games which our Nafs and Shaytan play with us....and grant you his RAZA and Husne khatima on destined time,as every thing depends on it.

Pls remember this ajez in your dua.
