Question:
As salaam aykum
How is the process of Taribya in our tariqah?
My second question is I live at a distance so I’m not near any zawiyah Or I can attend the weekly gatherings so what is recommended for me to do it to try to participate in group zhikr.
Answer:
wa ‘alaykum salam,
Tarbiyya comes by connecting with the Shaykh, whether in person or afar. Try to keep the presence of the Shaykh, so that you feel he is observing you in every situation.
Try to attend Dhikr session in person, even if only once in a month, or if not possible once every three months or even at minimum once a year. The remainder of the time follow consistently and devotedly the Dhikr Majlis broadcast on Sufilive.com with Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani or his representative Dr. Nour Kabbani. The benefit of online attendance is immense. Allah knows best.
