Question:
Assalam-o-Alaikum
Bismillah Ir-Rehman Ir-Raheem,
My question is a simple and a short one. I just want to ask that is there any age criteria for becoming a mureed? My parents keep saying to me that I am still very young so I should walk into sufism. I am only 13 year old. Moreover, can I except to gain a spiritual level in teenage periods of my life.
May Allah bless Shaykh Nizam and Shaykh Hisham (r) with his countless blessings and his closeness. Jazak-Allah Khairan
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
MashaAllah. See Shaykh Taher’s answer in the Post “Age, new Baya`”.
