Question:
Assalamualaikum,
please tell me how to perform rabita. I had read in the website but I can ‘t understand so please explain me clearly.Assalamualaikum.
Answer:
Shaykh Hisham said:
The only strong power now is muraqabah. Rabitah and muraqabah are two different levels. You begin with muraqabah and end with rabitah. Muraqabah is to imagine yourself with the Shaykh and rabitah is to tie yourself with him so you cannot move except with his movements.
You may get the book The Healing Power of Sufi Meditation by Sayyid Nurjan Mirahmadi and Dr. Hedieh Mirahmadi for very detailed description of muraqabah.
