QUALITIES OF A SPIRITUAL GUIDE (SHAYKH)

The heir of Messenger of Allah (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) who is made ones Shaykh (spiritual guide) should be a scholar but every scholar cannot be a Shaykh al-Kamil (a perfected spiritual guide). For this work [of guiding people spiritually by purifying their souls and helping them progress with their souls in the Way of Allah] only that person can be qualified who has some specific qualities. Here we briefly narrate some [such] qualities so that every nut head (crazy) and misguided person could not claim to be a Shaykh (spiritual guide) [as it is necessary to define these qualities due to the presence of a large number of fake impersonators claiming to be Shaykhs whose sole purpose is to deceive people to gain material benefits thus causing great damage to this important aspect of Islam by disillusioning people and misguiding many].

My dear beloved son! Our purpose is that you should know what obedience and worship are. Obedience and worship are to follow the Shariah (law) of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) then whether the commandments are for performing the righteous deeds or for restraining oneself from evil or whether [the commandments] are for following his words or deeds, in other words, whether you do something or not do something, whether you say something or not say something, all these must be in accordance with the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). If you say something then say it according to the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). If you keep silent then be silent according to the commandments of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). If you do something or do not do something then do it in accordance with the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). If you do something and you consider it an act of worship but you do not do it to obey the commandment of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) then this will not be counted as worship but instead will be counted as a sin even though it might be prayer or fasting. Do you not know that if someone fasts on the [first] day of the two Eids (i.e. two foremost Islamic celebrations) or on the days of Hajj (pilgrimage) then this person will be committing sin? Even though it is fasting but since its not done in accordance with the commandment of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) thats why this person is being sinful. Similarly, if someone performs prayers at a forbidden time (e.g. after Asr [late afternoon] prayer but before sunset or after Fajr [dawn] prayer but before sometime after sunrise, etc.) or at an illegally occupied place then he/she will be called Athim (sinner) and Fasiq (law breaker). Even though it apparently looks like [a legitimate act of] worship but since it was not done in accordance with the guidance of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), it is not correct.
