The author Ḥaḍrat Abū Anees Muḥammad Barkat 'Ali has in this Volume 10 of the series of his Words of Wisdom listed more of the collection, the stunning and easy to understand dichotomy of the spiritual dimensions of Islam.

The Awliyā' Allāh (Friends of Allāh) are the fuqarā' (pl. of faqīr) who wear the gabardine of Faq'r-il-Allāh which to the author means 'emulation of seventy thousand Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (SAW), and deviation from Sunnah al-Mu'akkadah amounts to trampling under the Tarīqat (Path of Islamic Mysticism).’

The essence of Tarīqat is clearly explained in the header Ḥadīth of our introduction. The practitioners of this Ḥadīth, often referred to as the Ḥadīth Al-Wilāyah, are the beneficiaries and bearers of the Divine metaphysical, extra-sensory and occult powers, as promised herein. Accordingly, they are endowed with the Almighty Allāh's authority to wield and bring about relaxation (būst) to contraction (qabḍ) pervading His creatures' daily affairs, corporeal and or spiritual.
