About
This course explores Miftāḥ al-Ṭarīq ilā Sulūk al-Taḥqīq (“The Path-Key to the Journey of Spiritual Realization”) by Shaykh Aḥmad ibn Ibrāhīm al-Wāsitī al-Ḥanbalī (d. 711H), a concise yet profound treatise outlining the essential structure and principles of spiritual wayfaring (sulūk). Written with clarity and precision, the text provides seekers with a systematic introduction to key terms, foundational stages, and the spiritual obligations necessary for drawing nearer to Allah.
Studied at the Tamhīd (Preparatory) level, this work provides students with an organized framework of sulūk, emphasizing the need for sincerity, discipline, and correct intention from the outset. It grounds the student in a Hanbalī understanding of spirituality—firmly anchored in adherence to the Qur’an and Sunnah and safeguarded by sound creed. This orientation prepares the seeker to begin the journey with clarity and purpose.
