MURAAQABAH

Speaking on Muraaqabah, Hadhrat Masihullah (Rahmatullahi Alaih)said:

Muraaqabah is to contemplate – to meditate on Allah Ta’ala. This practice should be adhered to until the state is reached where one consciously perceives Allah, or at least one perceives that Allah is seeing one.

This thought about Allah Ta’ala has to be a permanent perception in the conscious mind of the Saalik. When he has gained this state, every moment of his will be Ibaadat. And, it is for His Ibaadat that He has created us.
