[FelikTen]

If there are no Murshidas out there, then I will insha Allah ta’aala become the mureeda of a Murshid instead. It’s just that I won’t be able to benefit from his company like his male disciples and right now, it’s righteous company I’m seeking. I’m convinced righteous company would do so much for my Iman.

Many women are under this misconception that being women they will not benefit from a Shaykh because we cannot sit in their company. This is a deception of Shaytaan because if you think about it sister, it is Allah subhaanahu wata'ala's command we are following by being concerned about our islah as well as keeping a distance from the Shaykh. So now how can we be deprived of benefit?

Insha Allah i firmly believe we too are not deprived of attaining the same benefits as our brothers...as someone said in another thread, its the heart to heart connection which is important. Congeniality with a shaykh is of utmost importance and distance has nothing to do with it. I pray you find the right guide for this path...and may Allah subhaanahu wata'ala grant us all His pleasuer and nearness, aameen
