It exists. (Jāmiʿ, 186)
Know that the original seven maqāms (spiritual stations) to which the branches of the spiritual states (aḥwāl) of the people of certainty (yāqīn) reach are: tawba (repentance), sabr (patient endurance), shukr (gratitude), rajāʾ (hope), khawf (fear), zuhd (asceticism), tawakkul (reliance upon God), maḥabba (love), and riḍā (contentment with God's decree). (Jāmiʿ, 218)
It is to turn away. In the abwāb (spiritual doors), it is to abandon superfluous words and deeds that are permissible, to purify the nafs (the lower self) from inclining toward such things, and to abandon the desires (shahawāt) that prevent one from turning to the Real (al-Ḥaqq). In the muʿāmalāt (spiritual dealings), it is to turn away from seeing the actions of others, to avoid the claims and states of the nafs by witnessing the acts of the Real. In akhlāq (character), it is to repent from base qualities of the nafs and from one's own will, power, and strength (that incline toward these).
In the uṣūl (principles), it is to turn away from showing favor to others and to be steadfast in resolve. In the adwiya (remedies), it is to efface one's knowledge with the knowledge of the Real, to strip oneself of one's own knowledge; and to repent from seeing one's own attributes while in the presence of the Real, being with Him. In the aḥwāl (spiritual states), it is to renounce forgetting the Beloved, and to turn away from inclining toward anything else, even one's own nafs.
In walāya (sainthood), it is to repent from recalling talwīn (spiritual fluctuation) and from being deprived of the light of unveiling (kashf). In ḥaqāʾiq (realities), it is to repent from witnessing anything other than Him, and from the persistence of enniyya (egoity, the sense of "I") in oneself. In nihāya (the end), it is to repent from the manifestation of anything remaining other than Him. (Jāmiʿ, 273)

The origin of ināba (turning to God) in the bidāya (beginning) is, after repenting, to remain faithful to it and turn to the Real. In the abwāb (spiritual doors), ināba is to subdue the powers of the nafs in order to comply with the command of Allah without objection.
