Becoming 'Murid' of 'Pir"
osman sarwar
Assalamualaikum,
Hope u r fine by Allah. Often I come across with the idea of becoming 'murid' of a 'pir' and advised by seniors. But I have not found any instruction from Holy Quran and Hadith yet. Please tell me if this action is permitted by Islam in details with specific reference.
Jajak Allah khair. Allah hafeez.

Quotes From 3 Great Imaams
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Imam Al-Shaf'i:
"If a person excercized sufism(tasawafa) at the begininng of the day, he doesn't come at Zuhur except an idiot".
"Nobody accompanied the Sufis forty days and had his brain return(never) "
And he recited in poetry: " And leave (alone) who if came to you practiced piety/ and when alone were concealed wolves"-Pgs 371 Talbees Iblis
And when he went to Egypt he said: "I have left Baghdad and the aetheists(Zanadiga) have innovated a thing they call Sama'(Hearing)" - He is referring to the singinig and dancing that the Sufis innovated in the second century and is still spread amongst them till the present day.
N.B: Notice how Imam Al-Shafi' who was Malik's student opposed Sufism. One wonders how some beleive in what was ascribed to Imam Malik concerning Sufism( Man tasawwafa walam yatafaghaha-etc). There exists different views amongst the two Imams in Fiqh matters but this is a matter of Aqidah, they have one and the same Aqidah.
Imam Ahmed Bin Hanbal:
" Warn (people) from Al-Harith( a Sufi leader) the strongest warning!!Al-Harith is the origin of the confusion(referring to the incidents of Jahm- . Fulan and Fulan have sat with that (person) and he has changed them to Jahm's view, He is still the shelter of the people of the talk. Harith is in the position of a garrisonned lion any day (he) will leap on the people"-Talbees Iblis Pgs166-167.
Imam Abu Zara' Al-Dimashqi:
When asked about the books of Al-Harith Al-Muhasbi: "Beware of those books. those are books of innovation and misguidance.Stick to what has been related from the prophet-saaws-(Al-Athar), you will find in it what would spare you those books. It was told to him:There is a lesson(Ibra) in those books. He said: Whoever doesn't find a lesson from the book of Allah, would not find a lesson in those books. It has reached you that Malik bin Anas, Sufyan AL-Thawri, Al-Awzai and the precedent Imamas classified those books amongst the anxieties, insinuations and those(similar) things. Those(meaning the Sufis) people contradicted the people of knowledge ( Ahl Al-Elm), they come to us once by Al-Harith Al-Muhasbi, another by Abdul-Raheem Al-Dubeeli, another by Hatim Al-Asam, another by Shaqiq Al-Bulakhi, then he said: how fast are people (going ) to innovations(Al-Bida')."
Conclusion:
To sum up, the great scholars opposed the innovations that the Sufis have brought to Islam through their deviated spiritual approaches.Millions of people around the world have been converted from Mohammad-saws-'s Islam to Sufism.
"Al Muslimoon Ummatun Wahida, Wa Biladahum Wahida, Wa Harbahum Wahida, Wa Salmahum Wahida".
Jaabir (radhi-yallaahu 'anhu) narrated that Allaah's Messenger (sal-Allaahu`alayhe wa sallam) said:
"Do not acquire knowledge in order to compete with the scholars, nor to argue with the ignorant, nor to gain mastery over the gatherings. Since whoever does that, then: The Fire! The Fire!"
From Imam al-Shafi'i is also narrated:
"People did not become ignorant nor differed except after their abandonment of the Arabic language and their inclination to the language of Aristoteles!"

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah.
- In fact, no where in the Quraan and Sunnah, it is said that we have to become a “Murid” of a “Pir”. And the word Pir and Murid itself cannot be found either in Quraan and Sunnah. Both of them are probably Persian words.
2. So, anybody saying, “everybody must be a “Murid of a Pir” is completely wrong. He is talking without reference.
- Many a people say that “Pir” means teacher. So, you need to have a “Pir” to learn Islam. For them:
a. If “Pir” means teacher than what is the requirement of giving bayah (oath of allegiance) to him? Do we give other teachers Bayah?
b. One should have good number of teachers i.e. “Pir” which we don’t find generally among them.
c. If “Pir” is teacher, then we require to go to “Pir of Tafseer” i.e. Mufassir to learn Quraan, “Peer of Hadith” i.e. Muhaddith to learn Hadith, “Peer of Fiqh” i.e. Fakih to learn fiqh and ahkam, “Peer of History” to learn Islamic History. But, we don’t find these Murids learn separate aspects of Islam from separate teachers.
d. If the “Pir” i.e. teacher does not teach Islam based on Al Quraan and Shahih Hadith, he should not be taken as a teacher, we should not go to him.
- More over, almost all (I am not saying 100% because I don’t know every “Pir” in our country) the “Pir” and their “Murid” are involved in either major or minor Shirk or Bidah or Haram acts which is in fact a curse for the sincere Muslims of this country and the sub continent.
- The common shirki activities among the Pir-Murid of Bangladesh are listed in the attached paper “List of Shirk in Bangladesh”. If anybody is involved in major shirk, then he becomes a Mushrik and the minor shirk is more severe than haram acts i.e. drinking alcohol, zina etc. If somebody is involved in Bidah, then he is a sinner and will not get water of “Hawz e Kawsar” from our prophet (peace be upon him) on akhirah.
- A nice book on Sufism / “Pir – Murid” system is attached called “The Realities of Sufism”
- Some of the major shirks done / believed by many of the Pir-Murid which take a person out of fold of Islam (makes him Mushrik or Kafir) are given below:
a. Believing that the prophet (peace be upon him) is also a knower of unseen (Alimul gayib) like Allah himself.
"And I do not say to you that with me are the Treasures of Allâh, "Nor that I know the Ghaib (unseen); "nor do I say I am an angel, and I do not say of those whom your eyes look down upon that Allâh will not bestow any good on them. Allâh knows what is in their inner-selves. In that case, I should, indeed be one of the Zâlimûn." [Surah Hud 11:31]
b. Believing that the awlia / pir / wali Allah are knower of unseen (Alimul gayib) like Allah himself.
c. Believing that Gaus, Kutub and higher wali allah are helping hands of Allah in running the affairs of the world.
“He arranges (every) affair from the heavens to the earth, then it (affair) will go up to Him, in one Day, the space whereof is a thousand years of your reckoning (i.e. reckoning of our present world's time)”. [Surah As-Sajda 32:5]
“Say: (O Muhammad SAW) "Call upon those whom you assert (to be associate gods) besides Allâh, they possess not even the weight of an atom (or a small ant), either in the heavens or on the earth, nor have they any share in either, nor there is for Him any supporter from among them”. [Surah Saba 34:22]
d. Believing that the prophet (peace be upon him) is alive in the worldly sense, that is, he hears us, visits us during Milad and so on.
“Verily, you (O Muhammad SAW) will die and verily, they (too) will die. Then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will be disputing before your Lord.” [Surah Az Zumar 39:30-31]
d. Writing and wearing Tabiz or amulets etc.
“Whoever hangs amulet (Tabiz etc) commits shirk” – Musnad Ahmad 4/156, Al Hysami and Mazmaul Zawaid.
e. Making dua to the prophets / awlia / saints etc.
“And whoever invokes (or worships), besides Allâh, any other ilâh (god), of whom he has no proof, then his reckoning is only with his Lord. Surely! Al-Kâfirûn will not be successful.” [al-Muminun 23:117]
f. Calling the Pir in his absence to help in a disaster / problem.
“Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Allâh rescues you from it and from all (other) distresses, and yet you worship others besides Allâh.” [al-Anaam 6:64]
g. Trying to get barakah (goodness) from the graves of the prophets / previous pirs / awlia etc.
“Say (O Muhammad SAW): "I possess no power of benefit or hurt to myself except as Allâh wills”. [al-Araf 7:188]
j. Believing on the power of already “dead Pir” who can harm us on this earth if he is angry upon us.
“Is not Allâh Sufficient for His slave? Yet they try to frighten you with those (whom they worship) besides Him! And whom Allâh sends astray, for him there will be no guide”. [Az zuamr 39: 36]
k. Loving the Pir more than or as much as Allah himself.
“And of mankind are some who take (for worship) others besides Allaah as rivals (to Allaah). They love them as they love Allaah. But those who believe, love Allaah more (than anything else).” [al-Baqarah 2:165]
l. Making tawaf (surrounding) beside the grave of the earlier Pir (“Dada Pir” or Grand Dada Pir” etc).
m. Praying salat or reciting Al Quraan in or around the grave of a Pir so that ibadah is accepted quicker and “Pir” is happy upon him.
It was narrated that he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “May Allah curse the Jews and the Christians, for they took the graves of their Prophets as places of worship.” ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said, “He was warning against what they had done.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1330, Muslim, 529.
“Do not say your Salat facing the grave” - Shahih Muslim, Vol: 2, page:668; Nasai 2/62; Musnad Ahmad 4/135
n. Sacrificing animal in the name of a Pir to satisfy him in different occasions.
o. Believing that man can be apart of Allah himself in higher status of “Pir Career”. They take “Ibn Arabee” or “Masur Hallz” as a great Muslim who was declared Murtad (Kafir) by all his contemporary scholars from all majhaab. He called himself “Anal Haqq” ( I am the Truth meaning Allah himself)
Ibn Arabi: http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/7691/
Mansur Hallaj: http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/21379/
( Note that I am not saying an individual is Musrik or Kafir that is the job of an Alim, I am saying if anybody believes or does acts mentioned above are supposed to go out of fold of Islam. There are excuses for a person if he/she did not know, wrong explanation, is forced to do an action etc. All these and many other major shirk are found among the Pirs and Murids of this country. Note that all these activities may not be found with one Pir. All these shirks are mentioned with details reference in the Bangla book “What is Shirk and Why?” by Dr Muzzamil Ali, Professor Islamic University, Kuhstia; 01710861310 – Writers mobile number; Education Center Sylhet (Sales Center) Mobile number: 01712668345. Brother Abdus Sabur is trying to manage a soft copy of the book; insha Allah it will be shared once it is available, till then we can collect / buy hard copies)

6. The Bidah and Haram activities normally practiced by Pirs are:
a. Innovated durud, religious festivals.
http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/10289/
b. Making structures over the graves.
“(then) those who won their point said (most probably the disbelievers): ‘We verily, shall build a place of worship over them’” [al-Kahf 18:21]
In al-Saheehayn it is also narrated that Umm Salamah and Umm Habeebah (may Allaah be pleased with them) told the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) about a church that they had seen in the land of Abyssinia, and the images that were in it. He (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “When a righteous man died among them, they would build a place of worship over his grave and put those images in it. They are the most evil of mankind before Allaah.” (Al-Bukhaari, 427; Muslim, 528)
c. Celebrating Milad, Eid e Miladun Nabi etc.
d. Celebrating Urus. (either birth day or death anniversary of the senior Pirs.)
Allah knows the best.
Ma assalamah.

Shaikh Sulaymaan Ibn Naasir al-'Ulwaan
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. And to what follows…
Some of the brothers have asked the question: What is the ruling
concerning two who differ in a fiqh matter? Is it the right of every
individual to take the words of the imaam of his madhhab (school of
thought), or should they research the matter and look into the
evidences? Inform us of the ruling and may Allah reward you greatly.
So I answered them:
If there isn't any clear evidence in a matter and the ruling of a
matter is based on ijtihaad1, then it is on the Muslim to follow the
one whom he thinks is the most knowledgable and pious from the people,
and there is no blame on him if he does that. As for the matter where
there is evidence, then it is not allowed for a Muslim to take the
words of his imaam if those words go against the evidence. Instead, it
is on him to leave the words of his imaam, whoever he may be, if the
evidence has reached him, and this is obligatory on the entire
creation. For the words of the scholars are in need of evidence and
not vice a versa. Indeed the words of the scholars help to understand
the texts and explain the matters and so forth.
As for the words of the scholars being an authority over the words of
Allah and His Messenger, then none of the scholars have ever stated
this. Instead this goes against the Quran and the Sunnah and the
consensus of the Muslims, since Allah has commanded us to follow His
Book and to obey His Messenger in many places in the Quran. Allah has
said,
..and obey Allah and the Messenger so that you may receive mercy. [3:132]
And Allah said,
Say! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger. [24:84]
And Allah said,
Let those who contradict his orders beware lest a trial or a painful
punishment befall them. [24:63]
And Allah said,
O you who believe! Obey Allah and His Messenger, and do not turn away
from him while you are able to hear. And do not be like those who say:
"We have heard," but they do not hear. Verily! The worst of living
creatures in the sight of Allah are the deaf and the dumb, those who
do not understand.[8:20]
Verily the scholars (may Allah's mercy be upon them), used to advise
their students not to blindly follow. Instead they made it binding on
them to take the evidence since this is what is obligatory and a must
for all the Muslims. So if the evidence reaches someone then he must
follow that evidence and leave whatever opposes that evidence. Allah
has said,
Follow what has been sent down unto you from your Lord, and do not
follow any protectors besides Him. Little do you remember.[8:21]
And Allah even bore witness to the guidance of the one who obeys His
Messenger, as is mentioned in Surah an-Noor:
And if you obey him you will be guided.[24:54]
So whoever leaves the evidences for the words of Abu Haneefah or
Maalik or Ash-Shaafi'e or Ahmad, then he has gone against a principle
that the Muslims have all gathered upon. Imaam A-Shaafi'e (may Allah's
mercy be upon him), has stated, "The Muslims have all agreed that if a
sunnah of the Prophet 's has reached someone, it is not befitting that
he leave it for the saying of anyone." And Imaam Maalik (may Allah's
mercy be upon him), said, "There is no one after the Prophet , except
that their words may be accepted or rejected."
So, as for those who are fanatics in following the imaam of the
particualar madhhab, then this goes against the guidance of the
predecessors, and is in opposition to what the imaams of those
madhhabs were upon. Since they were all agreed upon the dispraise of
blind following and fanatacism. Verily, it is obligatory on the Muslim
to go with the evidence, whether it be with the Maalikee school, or
the Hanafee school, or the Shafi'ee school, or the Hanbalee school, or
the Dhaahiree2 school, or any other school. As Allah did not confine
the truth to any of these schools, since the scholars of these schools
were men, who were capable of being correct and also making mistakes.
They were not infallible from mistakes and errors.
Imaam A-Shafi'ee (may Allah's mercy be upon him) said, "There is no
one among us who has not had a sunnah of Allah's Messenger elude him
or have one slip his mind; so no matter what rulings I have made or
fundamental principles I have proposed, there will be in them things
contrary to rulings of Allah's Messenger. Therefore, the correct
ruling is according to what Allah's Messenger said, and that is my
ruling."
Verily, the scholars (may Allah have mercy on all of them) have
disputed on many matters in the religion. From the rulings concerning
purification, prayer, zakah, fasting, Hajj, selling, divorce,
dhihaar3, and other things. While none of these scholars, who were
firm in knowledge, ever said that it was allowed for every individual
to take from where he pleases, concerning the different schools,
without looking into the evidence, the exception being the blind
follower who is not able to research into the evidences.
If it was permitted for every Muslim to follow his desires and pick
and choose from all these different opinions and sayings, then the
religion would be made up of these various schools of thought, and the
Book and the Sunnah would be of little benefit. And we seek refuge
with Allah from this!
So I say that which all the Muslims have agreed upon, that it is
obligatory to take all matters of dispute back to the Book and the
Sunnah, according to the understanding of the scholars of the early
generation; looking into their words, and into their reasonings behind
certain decisions on matters after looking into the evidences.
For example the scholars have disputed on the matters of what
nullifies your purification. Like eating camel meat, touching a woman
without sexual contact, and things that exit the body from other than
the two private areas. For some have said that these things that exit,
nullify your purification and at the same time are impure. Verily,
every imaam had a saying about these matters.
Concerning the eating of camel meat, Maalik, Abu Haneefah, and
Ash-Shaafi'ee, were of the opinion that it does not nullify your
purification. But, on the other hand, Imaam Ahmad (may Allah's mercy
be upon him) was of the opinion that it did. And this was also what
Ibn Hazm preferred.
The correct opinion concerning this, is the madhhab of Imaam Ahmad,
since there are two authentic hadeeths from the Prophet that prove
that the eating of camel meat nullify your purification. One of them
is the hadeeth of Jaabir bin Samurah in Saheeh Muslim, and the other
is the hadeeth of Al-Baraa collected by Abu Dawood and At-Tirmidhee,
and others.
As for the touching of the woman or embracing or similar to this, then
Imaam Ash-Shafi'ee was of the opinion that touching a woman nullifies
your purification whether it is with passion or not. And Abu Haneefah
was of the opinion that unconditional touching does not nullify your
purification. And Maalik and Ahmad in one narration were of the
opinion that it does not nullify your purification except with
passion.
So, for the one who examines the various evidences in this matter will
find that the Hanafee school is the closest to the correct opinion.
And in one narration, this opinion is also accredited to Imam Ahmad
and is also the preference of Shaikh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymiah. Since
there has not reached us any evidence that is authoratative in proving
that touching nullifies the purification whether with passion or
without. So in the absence of evidence, we return to the origin which
is that the purification is not nullified. And the madhhab of Abu
Haneefah is more clear on this issue than the other schools, since it
has been narrated to us that the Prophet kissed his wives, left to the
prayer, and he did not make wudu (ritual ablution). While, at the same
time, it is not narrated to us in the hadiths that it was with or
without passion. Even though there is some problem with the
authenticity of this hadith. Verily it was narrated by Abu Dawood,
At-Tirmidhee, and Ibn Maajah, by the way of Wakee', on the authority
of Aa'mash, on the authority of Hubayb bin abee Thaabit, on the
authority of Urwah, on the authority of Aaisha, but there is
defficiency in it. As Hubayb did not hear from Urwah. But there are
other hadiths that are authentic concerning this matter. And Allah
knows best.
As for the things that exit from the body like blood and other things,
then the madhhab of Imaam Ahmad says that these things nullify your
purification. But the madhhab of Imaam Ash-Shafi'ee says that any of
these absolutely do not nullify your purification. And this is the
correct opinion, which is also supported by Imaam Maalik and in one
narration from Imaam Ahmad. And this is the conclusion that Ibn
Taymiah and many others came to. Since there is no evidence, that
anything which exits from your body, other than the two private areas,
nullifies your purification.
So these examples that I gave, are to show that the truth is not
limited to a specific scholar, group, or school of thought. Verily,
the Muslim is not commanded to follow and stick to a specific school
of thought. Instead, he should seek out the truth, as every school of
thought is correct in some things, and mistaken in others.
As the school of the Hanbalees are correct in many of the rulings in
the matters of this religion. likewise the Shaafi'ees, the Maalikees,
and the Hanafees (are also right in many rulings). While, at the same
time, Imaam Ibn Hazm was alone in some of his opinions which actually
are the correct opinion. Many of the scholars differed due to the
availability of the evidences, distinguishing between the authentic
and the weak, between the things that abrogate and are abrogated, and
between the unconditional (mutlaq) and the qualified (muqayyad). So
the one who is in the right follows the one who has the truth with him
without being biased. Likewise he opposes the mistakes without
slandering or defaming someones person, or putting him at a low level.
Since these scholars were striving to reach the correct opinion
(mujtahidoon), and whether they were correct or incorrect, they will
be rewarded either way.
So, after this, it is not obligatory on anyone to follow one of these
scholars. And whoever thinks this has strayed far away from the
correct path. Verily, it is not obligatory to follow anyone except the
Messenger of Allah, since his saying is all truth and he does not
speak from his own desire.
As for any others from the scholars and the imaams of the various
schools of thought, then we don't take from their words except what
agrees with the truth. And this is a serious matter that none deem
important except the one who wishes to be guided and save his soul
from falling into evil. How many are the ones who claim to have
knowledge and are busy writing, except that they are fanatics headed
for destruction, and blind followers. They are angered by those who go
against their particular imaam but are not angered by those who go
against the Book of Allah or the sunnah of the Messenger of Allah .
So the correct one is he who makes the Book of Allah and the sunnah of
His Messenger the ruling over all sayings. Even if those who disagree,
disagree with him and accuse him of heresy. Indeed, it has become a
common practice of those who blindly follow and are fanatics, to label
those who differ with them as heretics and astray. And this is the
status of every liar, and the one who is a deviant from the truth and
the straight path since when he is unable to provide the proof and the
evidence he resorts to these types of tactics. Verily, there is
evidence in the Book of Allah and the sunnah of the Prophet , that the
truth will have many enemies fighting against it, trying to prevent it
from being manifest. They come with various molds that support their
intellects, and satisfy their desires. For the person on the truth, he
should put all his efforts into it so as not to be shaken away from
this truth that he is on. He should call others to this truth and
Allah will provide him with help and support. And he will remain
victorious as long as he is trying to give victory to the religion and
the truth, with full sincerity to Allah and their will not cease to be
aid from Allah as long as he stays on this way.
Allah has said,
As for those who strive hard in Us (Our cause), We will surely guide
them to Our paths. And verily, Allah is with the Muhsinun (good
doers).[29:69]
Also Allah has said,
O you who believe! If you help (in the cause of) Allah, He will help
you, and make your foothold firm.[47:7]
And whoever Allah helps then that is indeed enough against the evil of
His enemies. But the help will not come until there are first two
things: Sincerity to Allah in both sayings and actions in accordance
with the guidance of the Prophet Muhammad . So if these two conditions
are met then nothing can oppose him, even if they were to all come
together from the east and the west. Allah has said,
If Allah helps you, none can overcome you; and if He forsakes you, who
is there after Him that can help you? And in Allah (Alone) let
believers put their trust.[3:160]
And all praise is due to Allah. W'al hamdu lillah rabbil aalameen…
