THE VIRTUES OF KHATM KHWAJAGAN

The manner of our tariqa is to mind our own business: to follow the way according to what we learned from our shaykhs, the way they taught it. The Khatm Khwajagan is in the foundations of our tariqa, meaning it is the pillar. We need to do it once a week. Those who cannot do it every week can then come once every two weeks. Three weeks at most. Shaykh Mawlana (QS) used to say, “If one exceeds three weeks, the person should be ashamed to say, ‘I’m in tariqa.’” It is alright to do it by oneself if one cannot come.
