Healing Power of Sufi Meditation 
   
The goal and purpose of Sufi Meditation Muraqaba Muraqabah / Meditation / 
Rabita Sharif  is to manifest perpetual presence in the reality of the Shaykh. 
The more one keeps to this vital practice, the more its benefit will manifest 
in his daily life to the point that he reaches the state of annihilation in the 
presence of the Shaykh. One must know well that the Shaykh is the bridge 
between illusion and reality and he remains in this world only for this 
purpose. 
   
  The Shaykh is thus a unique rope extended to any who seek freedom for only he 
may serve as the link between one still mired in this world and the Divine 
Presence. To be annihilated in the presence and reality of the Shaykh is to be 
annihilated in reality, in the Presence of the Divine, for this is precisely 
where he is.
   
  1st Step
   
  Feel  yourself in presence of the Shaykh, Give your greetings, Eyes closed, 
See thru Eye of Heart, Don't look for a face, just his Aura, Spirituality 
Converse with the Shaykh, building your  relationship with the reality of the 
Shaykh
  
Initially the murid may begin the practice of Sufi Meditation Muraqaba 
Muraqabah for short intervals of 5 to 15 minutes, and gradually work towards 
longer sessions extending even for hours at a time. The important point is that 
one maintain a consistent practice to obtain benefit. It is manifold better and 
wiser to keep to a small amount daily than to be sporadic in one’s discipline 
and practice. A small amount of effort done consistently will result in 
tremendous progress in even a short amount of time.  Once a Day :
• Make fresh wudu and pray 2 raka’. 
• 3x Shahada [ Kalimatu Shahadah (3 times): Ashhadu an la ilaha illa-lah, wa 
ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulu-lah] 
• 100-200x Istighfar [Astaghfirul lahal `Atheem wa atubu ilayh ]
• 3x Surah Ikhlas [Qul huwa Allahu ahad Allahu samadu Lam yalid walam yuladu 
Walam yakun lahu kufuwan ahadun
  • Fatiha (read fatiha)]
• Minimum 200x seeking support and presence of Mawlana Shaykh (Q):  “Madad ya 
Sayyidi, Madadul-Haq Ya Mawlana Shaykh Nazim Haqqani ” Repeating Dhikr 
   
  2nd Step
   
  Eyes Shut ask for Permission to connect his light to your heart and your 
light to his heart. Imagine a two way connection and then recite above mantra 
or awrad 
 
When someone sits for Meditation Sufi Meditation Muraqaba and closes his eyes, 
The person doing Meditation focuses his mind on one single point. The point in 
this case is usually the concept of his spiritual mentor, that is, he focuses 
all his witnessing abilities concentratively in thinking about his spiritual 
teacher, in order to get the image of his mentor on the mental screen, as long 
as he remains in the state of Meditation. 
   
  The properties, characteristics and potentialities related to an image also 
transfer on the screen of the mind when the image is formed on the mental 
screen and the mind perceives them accordingly. For instance, a person is 
looking at fire. When the image of fire transfers on the mental screen the 
warmth and heat of the fire is perceived by the mind. A person who is present 
in a garden enjoys the freshness and coolness of trees and plants present in 
the garden to create their image on his mental screen. Similarly when image of 
the spiritual mentor transfers on the screen of mind, the Presented Knowledge 
which is operative in the spiritual teacher, also transfers with it and the 
mind of the student gradually assimilates the same. 
   
  3rd Step
   
  Positioning Kneeling, Smallest Things Count, Keeping on knees, Closed 
Eyes-Mind Meditation, Hands in position, Mouth closed Tongue up, Breathing 
controlled
Ears listening to Quran, Salawat or Mellow sounds. Room Dark.
 
Sufi Meditation Muraqaba, thinking about the spiritual mentor, an attempt to 
concentrative focus our thoughts on someone, so that his image could 
recurrently reflect upon the screen of our mind, we are liberated from the 
limiting senses. The more frequently a thought is displayed upon the mental 
screen, the more vivid would be the formation of a pattern in the mind. And, 
this pattern of mind, in terms of spirituality, is called the 'thinking 
approach'. 
   
  When we imagine the spiritual mentor or 'Shaykh', as a matter of eternal law, 
the knowledge of Elohistic Attributes operative in the mentor or Shaykh is 
reflected upon our mind with frequent repetitions resulting in enlightenment of 
the mind of the spiritual associate with the lights functional in the mentor 
and transferred to him. The enlightenment of the heart of the spiritual 
associate attempts to  reaches the level of his mentor. 
   
  This state, in Sufism, is called 'Affinity' (nisbat). The best and tested way 
to enjoy the affinity, according to
