The conduct of the MUREED with his Brothers and Sisters

The conduct of the MUREED with his Brothers and Sisters


The first duty of the mureed (disciple) is to love his brothers and sisters in the Silesia (in Sufism) with all his or her heart, because the Sheikh loves them, and to love the Sheikh is to love those he loves.

If the mureed doesn't treat everyone with the same respect as he or she has for the Sheikh, then he/she must consider that he hasn't reached love of the Sheikh.

A mureed must keep their respect in their presence as well as in their absence so as not to backbite anyone.

The mureed must think good about his brothers and sisters and not to seek out their bad manners.

A mureed should accept an apology if a brother or sister apologizes.

A mureed should make peace between others and ask their forgiveness in case he/she harms them.

Mureeds should support each other when they are attacked.

Mureeds must show humbleness with each other as much as possible.
