Bismillah irRahman irRahim
I have read in the book of my father, may Allah Taala bless him with His Mercy and Love, that Islamic Spiritual Hierarchy is based on Twelve Seats:
- Imam
- Ghouth
- Qutab
- Awtad
- Abdal
- Akhyar
- Abrar
- Nuqaba
- Nujaba
- 'Amad
- Maktoom
- Fard
My father, may Allah Taala bless him with His Mercy, further says with reference to the authorities in Islamic Spiritualism that a Ghouth or Qutb or Time is the one who has under his control all the inner and outer values. He brings under use all the things and assists in moving forward the whole system of Allah Taala.
Allahumma Salli ala Muhammadin wa ala Aali Muhammad
