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.
