There are those who, by negation, affirm the Creator (Khāliq) as the only One. For the affirmation of the Creator is essential, while the affirmation of anything else is shirk (associating partners with God). There are those who, by negating causes, affirm the Provider (Rāziq) as the only One. To rely on causes in matters of provision is shirk. There are those who, by negating material things, affirm the Living (al-Ḥayy) as the only One. For a person to rely on food for life is shirk. There are those who affirm the Worshipped (Maʿbūd) as the only One. Whoever is occupied with anything other than Allah, whatever that thing may be, that is his deity. There are those who, by negating all acts except His, affirm the (true) Agent (Fāʿil) as the only One. For a servant to claim actions for himself and to attribute them to himself is shirk. There are those who, by negating all that is witnessed (mashhūdāt, everything that is seen) alongside Him, affirm the Witnessed (Mashhūd) as the only One. Anything that, by its beauty, distracts you from the vigilance (murāqaba) of your Worshipped is a shirk for you. There are those who, by negating all that exists alongside Him, affirm the Existent (Mawjūd) as the only One. Whoever claims to exist independently with his own self alongside Allah has committed shirk against Allah. After this comes the station of fanāʾ (annihilation in God). One can only speak of fanāʾ after having emerged from that station. (Ravza, 619)
In the litanies (duʿāʾ and wird) of the Shādhiliyya path (Ṭarīq-ī Shādhiliyya), the realization of tajrīd (abstraction), the sciences of tawhid (the oneness of God), and the comprehensiveness of fidelity to ʿubūdiyya (servitude) are present.
The Shādhiliyya path: our path is established upon five principles: every ... whether hidden or manifest.
